2KIN5.htm 2KIN7.htm6:1 And the sons [H1121] of the prophets [H5030] said [H559] unto [H6440] Elisha [H477] , Behold now, the place [H4725] where we dwell [H3427] with thee is too strait [H6862] for us.
6:2 Let us go [H3212] , we pray thee, unto Jordan [H3383] , and take [H3947] thence every man [H376] a [H259] beam [H6982] , and let us make [H6213] us a place [H4725] there, where we may dwell [H3427] . And he answered [H559] , Go [H3212] ye.
6:3 And one [H259] said [H559] , Be content [H2974] , I pray thee, and go [H3212] with thy servants [H5650] . And he answered [H559] , I will go [H3212] .
6:4 So he went [H3212] with them. And when they came [H935] to Jordan [H3383] , they cut down [H1504] wood [H6086] .
6:5 But as one [H259] was felling [H5307] a beam [H6982] , the axe head [H1270] fell [H5307] into the water [H4325] : and he cried [H6817] , and said [H559] , Alas [H162] , master [H113] ! for it was borrowed [H7592] .(axe head: Heb. iron)
6:6 And the man [H376] of God [H430] said [H559] , Where [H575] fell [H5307] it? And he shewed [H7200] him the place [H4725] . And he cut down [H7094] a stick [H6086] , and cast [H7993] [it] in thither; and the iron [H1270] did swim [H6687] .
6:7 Therefore said [H559] he, Take [it] up [H7311] to thee. And he put out [H7971] his hand [H3027] , and took [H3947] it.
6:8 Then the king [H4428] of Syria [H758] warred [H3898] against Israel [H3478] , and took counsel [H3289] with his servants [H5650] , saying [H559] , In such [H6423] and such [H492] a place [H4725] [shall be] my camp [H8466] .(camp: or, encamping)
6:9 And the man [H376] of God [H430] sent [H7971] unto the king [H4428] of Israel [H3478] , saying [H559] , Beware [H8104] that thou pass [H5674] not such [H2088] a place [H4725] ; for thither the Syrians [H758] are come down [H5185] .
6:10 And the king [H4428] of Israel [H3478] sent [H7971] to the place [H4725] which the man [H376] of God [H430] told [H559] him and warned [H2094] him of, and saved [H8104] himself there, not once [H259] nor twice [H8147] .
6:11 Therefore the heart [H3820] of the king [H4428] of Syria [H758] was sore troubled [H5590] for this thing [H1697] ; and he called [H7121] his servants [H5650] , and said [H559] unto them, Will ye not shew [H5046] me which of us [is] for the king [H4428] of Israel [H3478] ?
6:12 And one [H259] of his servants [H5650] said [H559] , None, my lord [H113] , O king [H4428] : but Elisha [H477] , the prophet [H5030] that [is] in Israel [H3478] , telleth [H5046] the king [H4428] of Israel [H3478] the words [H1697] that thou speakest [H1696] in thy bedchamber [H2315] [H4904] .(None: Heb. No)
6:13 And he said [H559] , Go [H3212] and spy [H7200] where [H351] he [is], that I may send [H7971] and fetch [H3947] him. And it was told [H5046] him, saying [H559] , Behold, [he is] in Dothan [H1886] .
6:14 Therefore sent [H7971] he thither horses [H5483] , and chariots [H7393] , and a great [H3515] host [H2428] : and they came [H935] by night [H3915] , and compassed [H5362] the city [H5892] about [H5362] .(great: Heb. heavy)
6:15 And when the servant [H8334] of the man [H376] of God [H430] was risen [H6965] early [H7925] , and gone forth [H3318] , behold, an host [H2428] compassed [H5437] the city [H5892] both with horses [H5483] and chariots [H7393] . And his servant [H5288] said [H559] unto him, Alas [H162] , my master [H113] ! how shall we do [H6213] ?(the servant: or, the minister)
6:16 And he answered [H559] , Fear [H3372] not: for they that [be] with us [are] more [H7227] than they that [be] with them.
6:17 And Elisha [H477] prayed [H6419] , and said [H559] , LORD [H3068] , I pray thee, open [H6491] his eyes [H5869] , that he may see [H7200] . And the LORD [H3068] opened [H6491] the eyes [H5869] of the young man [H5288] ; and he saw [H7200] : and, behold, the mountain [H2022] [was] full [H4390] of horses [H5483] and chariots [H7393] of fire [H784] round about [H5439] Elisha [H477] .
6:18 And when they came down [H3381] to him, Elisha [H477] prayed [H6419] unto the LORD [H3068] , and said [H559] , Smite [H5221] this people [H1471] , I pray thee, with blindness [H5575] . And he smote [H5221] them with blindness [H5575] according to the word [H1697] of Elisha [H477] .
6:19 And Elisha [H477] said [H559] unto them, This [is] not the way [H1870] , neither [is] this [H2090] the city [H5892] : follow [H3212] [H310] me, and I will bring [H3212] you to the man [H376] whom ye seek [H1245] . But he led [H3212] them to Samaria [H8111] .(follow: Heb. come ye after me)
6:20 And it came to pass, when they were come [H935] into Samaria [H8111] , that Elisha [H477] said [H559] , LORD [H3068] , open [H6491] the eyes [H5869] of these [men], that they may see [H7200] . And the LORD [H3068] opened [H6491] their eyes [H5869] , and they saw [H7200] ; and, behold, [they were] in the midst [H8432] of Samaria [H8111] .
6:21 And the king [H4428] of Israel [H3478] said [H559] unto Elisha [H477] , when he saw [H7200] them, My father [H1] , shall I smite [H5221] [them]? shall I smite [H5221] [them]?
6:22 And he answered [H559] , Thou shalt not smite [H5221] [them]: wouldest thou smite [H5221] those whom thou hast taken captive [H7617] with thy sword [H2719] and with thy bow [H7198] ? set [H7760] bread [H3899] and water [H4325] before [H6440] them, that they may eat [H398] and drink [H8354] , and go [H3212] to their master [H113] .
6:23 And he prepared [H3739] great [H1419] provision [H3740] for them: and when they had eaten [H398] and drunk [H8354] , he sent them away [H7971] , and they went [H3212] to their master [H113] . So the bands [H1416] of Syria [H758] came [H935] no more [H3254] into the land [H776] of Israel [H3478] .
6:24 And it came to pass after this [H310] , that Benhadad [H1130] king [H4428] of Syria [H758] gathered [H6908] all his host [H4264] , and went up [H5927] , and besieged [H6696] Samaria [H8111] .
6:25 And there was a great [H1419] famine [H7458] in Samaria [H8111] : and, behold, they besieged [H6696] it, until an ass's [H2543] head [H7218] was [sold] for fourscore [H8084] [pieces] of silver [H3701] , and the fourth part [H7255] of a cab [H6894] of dove's dung [H1686] [H3123] [H2755] for five [H2568] [pieces] of silver [H3701] .
6:26 And as the king [H4428] of Israel [H3478] was passing by [H5674] upon the wall [H2346] , there cried [H6817] a woman [H802] unto him, saying [H559] , Help [H3467] , my lord [H113] , O king [H4428] .
6:27 And he said [H559] , If the LORD [H3068] do not help [H3467] thee, whence [H370] shall I help [H3467] thee? out of the barnfloor [H1637] , or out of the winepress [H3342] ?(If: or, Let not the LORD save thee)
6:28 And the king [H4428] said [H559] unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered [H559] , This woman [H802] said [H559] unto me, Give [H5414] thy son [H1121] , that we may eat [H398] him to day [H3117] , and we will eat [H398] my son [H1121] to morrow [H4279] .
6:29 So we boiled [H1310] my son [H1121] , and did eat [H398] him: and I said [H559] unto her on the next [H312] day [H3117] , Give [H5414] thy son [H1121] , that we may eat [H398] him: and she hath hid [H2244] her son [H1121] .(next: Heb. other)
6:30 And it came to pass, when the king [H4428] heard [H8085] the words [H1697] of the woman [H802] , that he rent [H7167] his clothes [H899] ; and he passed by [H5674] upon the wall [H2346] , and the people [H5971] looked [H7200] , and, behold, [he had] sackcloth [H8242] within [H1004] upon his flesh [H1320] .
6:31 Then he said [H559] , God [H430] do [H6213] so and more [H3254] also to me, if the head [H7218] of Elisha [H477] the son [H1121] of Shaphat [H8202] shall stand [H5975] on him this day [H3117] .
6:32 But Elisha [H477] sat [H3427] in his house [H1004] , and the elders [H2205] sat [H3427] with him; and [the king] sent [H7971] a man [H376] from before [H6440] him: but ere the messenger [H4397] came [H935] to him, he said [H559] to the elders [H2205] , See [H7200] ye how this son [H1121] of a murderer [H7523] hath sent [H7971] to take away [H5493] mine head [H7218] ? look [H7200] , when the messenger [H4397] cometh [H935] , shut [H5462] the door [H1817] , and hold him fast [H3905] at the door [H1817] : [is] not the sound [H6963] of his master's [H113] feet [H7272] behind [H310] him?
6:33 And while he yet talked [H1696] with them, behold, the messenger [H4397] came down [H3381] unto him: and he said [H559] , Behold, this evil [H7451] [is] of the LORD [H3068] ; what should I wait [H3176] for the LORD [H3068] any longer?
