And it came to pass, when the LORDH3068 would take upH5927 ElijahH452 into heavenH8064 by a whirlwindH5591, that ElijahH452 wentH3212 with ElishaH477 from GilgalH1537.
And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto ElishaH477, TarryH3427 here, I pray thee; for the LORDH3068 hath sentH7971 me to BethelH1008. And ElishaH477 saidH559 unto him, As the LORDH3068 livethH2416, and as thy soulH5315 livethH2416, I will not leaveH5800 thee. So they went downH3381 to BethelH1008.
And the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 that were at BethelH1008 came forthH3318 to ElishaH477, and saidH559 unto him, KnowestH3045 thou that the LORDH3068 will take awayH3947 thy masterH113 from thy headH7218 to dayH3117? And he saidH559, Yea, I knowH3045 it; hold ye your peaceH2814.
And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto him, ElishaH477, tarryH3427 here, I pray thee; for the LORDH3068 hath sentH7971 me to JerichoH3405. And he saidH559, As the LORDH3068 livethH2416, and as thy soulH5315 livethH2416, I will not leaveH5800 thee. So they cameH935 to JerichoH3405.
And the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 that were at JerichoH3405 cameH5066 to ElishaH477, and saidH559 unto him, KnowestH3045 thou that the LORDH3068 will take awayH3947 thy masterH113 from thy headH7218 to dayH3117? And he answeredH559, Yea, I knowH3045 it; hold ye your peaceH2814.
And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto him, TarryH3427, I pray thee, here; for the LORDH3068 hath sentH7971 me to JordanH3383. And he saidH559, As the LORDH3068 livethH2416, and as thy soulH5315 livethH2416, I will not leaveH5800 thee. And they twoH8147 went onH3212.
And fiftyH2572 menH376 of the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 wentH1980, and stoodH5975 to viewH5048 afar offH7350: and they twoH8147 stoodH5975 by JordanH3383. {to view: Heb. in sight, or, over against}
And ElijahH452 tookH3947 his mantleH155, and wrapped it togetherH1563, and smoteH5221 the watersH4325, and they were dividedH2673 hither and thither, so that they twoH8147 went overH5674 on dryH2724 ground.
And it came to pass, when they were gone overH5674, that ElijahH452 saidH559 unto ElishaH477, AskH7592 what I shall doH6213 for thee, before I be taken awayH3947 from thee. And ElishaH477 saidH559, I pray thee, let a doubleH8147 portionH6310 of thy spiritH7307 be upon me.
And he saidH559, Thou hast askedH7592 a hard thingH7185: nevertheless, if thou seeH7200 me when I am takenH3947 from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so. {Thou hast…: Heb. Thou hast done hard in asking}
And it came to pass, as they stillH1980 went onH1980, and talkedH1696, that, behold, there appeared a chariotH7393 of fireH784, and horsesH5483 of fireH784, and partedH6504 them bothH8147 asunderH996; and ElijahH452 went upH5927 by a whirlwindH5591 into heavenH8064.
And ElishaH477 sawH7200 it, and he criedH6817, My fatherH1, my fatherH1, the chariotH7393 of IsraelH3478, and the horsemenH6571 thereof. And he sawH7200 him no more: and he took holdH2388 of his own clothesH899, and rentH7167 them in twoH8147 piecesH7168.
He took upH7311 also the mantleH155 of ElijahH452 that fellH5307 from him, and went backH7725, and stoodH5975 by the bankH8193 of JordanH3383; {bank: Heb. lip}
And he tookH3947 the mantleH155 of ElijahH452 that fellH5307 from him, and smoteH5221 the watersH4325, and saidH559, Where is the LORDH3068 GodH430 of ElijahH452? and when he also had smittenH5221 the watersH4325, they partedH2673 hither and thither: and ElishaH477 went overH5674.
And when the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 which were to view at JerichoH3405 sawH7200 him, they saidH559, The spiritH7307 of ElijahH452 doth restH5117 on ElishaH477. And they cameH935 to meetH7125 him, and bowedH7812 themselves to the groundH776 before him.
And they saidH559 unto him, Behold now, there beH3426 with thy servantsH5650 fiftyH2572 strongH2428 menH1121+H582; let them goH3212, we pray thee, and seekH1245 thy masterH113: lest peradventure the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 hath taken him upH5375, and castH7993 him upon someH259 mountainH2022, or into someH259 valleyH1516. And he saidH559, Ye shall not sendH7971. {strong…: Heb. sons of strength} {some mountain: Heb. one of the mountains}
And when they urgedH6484 him till he was ashamedH954, he saidH559, SendH7971. They sentH7971 therefore fiftyH2572 menH376; and they soughtH1245 threeH7969 daysH3117, but foundH4672 him not.
And when they came againH7725 to him, (for he tarriedH3427 at JerichoH3405,) he saidH559 unto them, Did I not sayH559 unto you, GoH3212 not?
And the menH582 of the cityH5892 saidH559 unto ElishaH477, Behold, I pray thee, the situationH4186 of this cityH5892 is pleasantH2896, as my lordH113 seethH7200: but the waterH4325 is naughtH7451, and the groundH776 barrenH7921. {barren: Heb. causing to miscarry}
And he saidH559, BringH3947 me a newH2319 cruseH6746, and putH7760 saltH4417 therein. And they broughtH3947 it to him.
And he went forthH3318 unto the springH4161 of the watersH4325, and castH7993 the saltH4417 in there, and saidH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, I have healedH7495 these watersH4325; there shall not be from thence any more deathH4194 or barrenH7921 land.
So the watersH4325 were healedH7495 unto this dayH3117, according to the sayingH1697 of ElishaH477 which he spakeH1696.
And he went upH5927 from thence unto BethelH1008: and as he was going upH5927 by the wayH1870, there came forthH3318 littleH6996 childrenH5288 out of the cityH5892, and mockedH7046 him, and saidH559 unto him, Go upH5927, thou bald headH7142; go upH5927, thou bald headH7142.
And he turnedH6437 backH310, and lookedH7200 on them, and cursedH7043 them in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068. And there came forthH3318 twoH8147 she bearsH1677 out of the woodH3293, and tareH1234 fortyH705 and twoH8147 childrenH3206 of them.
And he wentH3212 from thence to mountH2022 CarmelH3760, and from thence he returnedH7725 to SamariaH8111.

But he saidH559, Then bringH3947 mealH7058. And he castH7993 it into the potH5518; and he saidH559, Pour outH3332 for the peopleH5971, that they may eatH398. And there was no harmH1697+H7451 in the potH5518. {harm: Heb. evil thing}
Then saidH559 he unto me, These watersH4325 issue outH3318 toward the eastH6930 countryH1552, and go downH3381 into the desertH6160, and goH935 into the seaH3220: which being brought forthH3318 into the seaH3220, the watersH4325 shall be healedH7495. {desert: or, plain}
And it shall come to pass, that every thingH5315 that livethH2416, which movethH8317, whithersoever the riversH5158 shall comeH935, shall liveH2421: and there shall be a veryH3966 greatH7227 multitude of fishH1710, because these watersH4325 shall comeH935 thither: for they shall be healedH7495; and every thing shall liveH2425 whither the riverH5158 comethH935. {rivers: Heb. two rivers}
And it shall come to pass, that the fishersH1728 shall standH5975+H5975 upon it from EngediH5872 even unto EneglaimH5882; they shall be a place to spread forthH4894 netsH2764; their fishH1710 shall be according to their kindsH4327, as the fishH1710 of the greatH1419 seaH3220, exceedingH3966 manyH7227.
But the miry placesH1207 thereof and the marishesH1360 thereof shall not be healedH7495; they shall be givenH5414 to saltH4417. {shall not…: or, and that which shall not be healed}
He turnethH7760 riversH5104 into a wildernessH4057, and the waterspringsH4325+H4161 into dry groundH6774;
A fruitfulH6529 landH776 into barrennessH4420, for the wickednessH7451 of them that dwellH3427 therein. {barrenness: Heb. saltiness}
He turnethH7760 the wildernessH4057 into a standingH98 waterH4325, and dryH6723 groundH776 into waterspringsH4325+H4161.
And there he maketh the hungryH7457 to dwellH3427, that they may prepareH3559 a cityH5892 for habitationH4186;
And sowH2232 the fieldsH7704, and plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, which may yieldH6213 fruitsH6529 of increaseH8393.
He blessethH1288 them also, so that they are multipliedH7235 greatlyH3966; and sufferethH4591 not their cattleH929 to decreaseH4591.
And the manH376 of GodH430 saidH559, WhereH575 fellH5307 it? And he shewedH7200 him the placeH4725. And he cut downH7094 a stickH6086, and castH7993 it in thither; and the ironH1270 did swimH6687.
ForG1063 the preachingG3056 of the crossG4716 isG2076 to themG3303 that perishG622 foolishnessG3472; butG1161 unto usG2254 which are savedG4982 it isG2076 the powerG1411 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 it is writtenG1125, I will destroyG622 the wisdomG4678 of the wiseG4680, andG2532 will bring to nothingG114 the understandingG4907 of the prudentG4908.
WhereG4226 is the wiseG4680? whereG4226 is the scribeG1122? whereG4226 is the disputerG4804 of thisG5127 worldG165? hathG3471 notG3780 GodG2316 made foolishG3471 the wisdomG4678 of thisG5127 worldG2889?
ForG1063 afterG1894 that inG1722 the wisdomG4678 of GodG2316 the worldG2889 byG1223 wisdomG4678 knewG1097 notG3756 GodG2316, it pleasedG2106 GodG2316 byG1223 the foolishnessG3472 of preachingG2782 to saveG4982 them that believeG4100.
ForG2532+G1894 the JewsG2453 requireG154 a signG4592, andG2532 the GreeksG1672 seekG2212 after wisdomG4678:
ButG1161 weG2249 preachG2784 ChristG5547 crucifiedG4717, unto the JewsG2453 a stumblingblockG3303+G4625, andG1161 unto the GreeksG1672 foolishnessG3472;
ButG1161 unto themG846 whichG3588 are calledG2822, bothG5037 JewsG2453 andG2532 GreeksG1672, ChristG5547 the powerG1411 of GodG2316, andG2532 the wisdomG4678 of GodG2316.
BecauseG3754 the foolishnessG3474 of GodG2316 isG2076 wiser thanG4680 menG444; andG2532 the weaknessG772 of GodG2316 isG2076 stronger thanG2478 menG444.
ForG1063 ye seeG991 yourG5216 callingG2821, brethrenG80, how thatG3754 notG3756 manyG4183 wise menG4680 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, notG3756 manyG4183 mightyG1415, notG3756 manyG4183 nobleG2104, are called:
ButG235 GodG2316 hath chosenG1586 the foolish thingsG3474 of the worldG2889 toG2443 confoundG2617 the wiseG4680; andG2532 GodG2316 hath chosenG1586 the weak thingsG772 of the worldG2889 toG2443 confoundG2617 the things which are mightyG2478;
AndG2532 base thingsG36 of the worldG2889, andG2532 things which are despisedG1848, hathG1586 GodG2316 chosenG1586, yea, andG2532 things whichG3588 areG5607 notG3361, toG2443 bring to noughtG2673 things that areG5607:
AndG2532 GodG2316 shall wipe awayG1813 allG3956 tearsG1144 fromG575 theirG846 eyesG3788; andG2532 there shall beG2071 noG3756 moreG2089 deathG2288, neitherG3777 sorrowG3997, norG3777 cryingG2906, neitherG3777+G3756 shall there beG2071 any moreG2089 painG4192: forG3754 the former thingsG4413 are passed awayG565.
And he criedH6817 unto the LORDH3068; and the LORDH3068 shewedH3384 him a treeH6086, which when he had castH7993 into the watersH4325, the watersH4325 were made sweetH4985: there he madeH7760 for them a statuteH2706 and an ordinanceH4941, and there he provedH5254 them,
InG1722 the midstG3319 of the streetG4113 of itG846, andG2532 on eitherG2532 sideG1782 of the riverG4215, was there the treeG3586 of lifeG2222, which bareG4160 twelveG1427 manner of fruitsG2590, and yieldedG591 herG846 fruitG2590 everyG2596+G1538+G1520 monthG3376: andG2532 the leavesG5444 of the treeG3586 were forG1519 the healingG2322 of the nationsG1484.
And saidH559, If thou wilt diligentlyH8085 hearkenH8085 to the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and wilt doH6213 that which is rightH3477 in his sightH5869, and wilt give earH238 to his commandmentsH4687, and keepH8104 all his statutesH2706, I will putH7760 none of these diseasesH4245 upon thee, which I have broughtH7760 upon the EgyptiansH4714: for I am the LORDH3068 that healethH7495 thee.
AndG2532 there shall beG2071 noG3756 moreG2089+G3956 curseG2652: butG2532 the throneG2362 of GodG2316 andG2532 of the LambG721 shall beG2071 inG1722 itG846; andG2532 hisG846 servantsG1401 shall serveG3000 himG846:
And every oblationH7133 of thy meat offeringH4503 shalt thou seasonH4414 with saltH4417; neither shalt thou suffer the saltH4417 of the covenantH1285 of thy GodH430 to be lackingH7673 from thy meat offeringH4503: with all thine offeringsH7133 thou shalt offerH7126 saltH4417.
BlessedG3107 are yeG2075, whenG3752 men shall revileG3679 youG5209, andG2532 persecuteG1377 you, andG2532 shall sayG2036 all mannerG3956 of evilG4190+G4487 againstG2596 youG5216 falselyG5574, for my sakeG1752+G1700. {falsely: Gr. lying}
