Now JehoramH3088 the sonH1121 of AhabH256 began to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478 in SamariaH8111 the eighteenthH8083+H6240 yearH8141 of JehoshaphatH3092 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and reignedH4427 twelveH8147+H6240 yearsH8141.
And he wroughtH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068; but not like his fatherH1, and like his motherH517: for he put awayH5493 the imageH4676 of BaalH1168 that his fatherH1 had madeH6213. {image: Heb. statue}
Nevertheless he cleavedH1692 unto the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, which made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398; he departedH5493 not therefrom.
And MeshaH4338 kingH4428 of MoabH4124 was a sheepmasterH5349, and renderedH7725 unto the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 an hundredH3967 thousandH505 lambsH3733, and an hundredH3967 thousandH505 ramsH352, with the woolH6785.
But it came to pass, when AhabH256 was deadH4194, that the kingH4428 of MoabH4124 rebelledH6586 against the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478.
And kingH4428 JehoramH3088 went outH3318 of SamariaH8111 the same timeH3117, and numberedH6485 all IsraelH3478.
And he wentH3212 and sentH7971 to JehoshaphatH3092 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, The kingH4428 of MoabH4124 hath rebelledH6586 against me: wilt thou goH3212 with me against MoabH4124 to battleH4421? And he saidH559, I will go upH5927: I am as thou art, my peopleH5971 as thy peopleH5971, and my horsesH5483 as thy horsesH5483.
And he saidH559, Which wayH1870 shall we go upH5927? And he answeredH559, The wayH1870 through the wildernessH4057 of EdomH123.
So the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 wentH3212, and the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and the kingH4428 of EdomH123: and they fetched a compassH5437 of sevenH7651 days'H3117 journeyH1870: and there was no waterH4325 for the hostH4264, and for the cattleH929 that followedH7272 them. {that…: Heb. at their feet}
And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, AlasH162! that the LORDH3068 hath calledH7121 these threeH7969 kingsH4428 togetherH7121, to deliverH5414 them into the handH3027 of MoabH4124!
But JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559, Is there not here a prophetH5030 of the LORDH3068, that we may enquireH1875 of the LORDH3068 by him? And oneH259 of the kingH4428 of Israel'sH3478 servantsH5650 answeredH6030 and saidH559, Here is ElishaH477 the sonH1121 of ShaphatH8202, which pouredH3332 waterH4325 on the handsH3027 of ElijahH452.
And JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559, The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 isH3426 with him. So the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and JehoshaphatH3092 and the kingH4428 of EdomH123 went downH3381 to him.
And ElishaH477 saidH559 unto the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, What have I to do with thee? getH3212 thee to the prophetsH5030 of thy fatherH1, and to the prophetsH5030 of thy motherH517. And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto him, Nay: for the LORDH3068 hath calledH7121 these threeH7969 kingsH4428 togetherH7121, to deliverH5414 them into the handH3027 of MoabH4124.
And ElishaH477 saidH559, As the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 livethH2416, beforeH6440 whom I standH5975, surely, were it not thatH3884 I regardH5375 the presenceH6440 of JehoshaphatH3092 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, I would not lookH5027 toward thee, nor seeH7200 thee.
But now bringH3947 me a minstrelH5059. And it came to pass, when the minstrelH5059 playedH5059, that the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 came upon him.
And he saidH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, MakeH6213 this valleyH5158 full of ditchesH1356.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Ye shall not seeH7200 windH7307, neither shall ye seeH7200 rainH1653; yet that valleyH5158 shall be filledH4390 with waterH4325, that ye may drinkH8354, both ye, and your cattleH4735, and your beastsH929.
And this is but a light thingH7043 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068: he will deliverH5414 the MoabitesH4124 also into your handH3027.
And ye shall smiteH5221 every fencedH4013 cityH5892, and every choiceH4004 cityH5892, and shall fellH5307 every goodH2896 treeH6086, and stopH5640 all wellsH4599 of waterH4325, and marH3510 every goodH2896 pieceH2513 of land with stonesH68. {mar: Heb. grieve}
And it came to pass in the morningH1242, when the meat offeringH4503 was offeredH5927, that, behold, there cameH935 waterH4325 by the wayH1870 of EdomH123, and the countryH776 was filledH4390 with waterH4325.
And when all the MoabitesH4124 heardH8085 that the kingsH4428 were come upH5927 to fightH3898 against them, they gatheredH6817 all that were able to putH2296 on armourH2290, and upwardH4605, and stoodH5975 in the borderH1366. {gathered: Heb. were cried together} {put on…: Heb. gird himself with a girdle}
And they rose up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and the sunH8121 shoneH2224 upon the waterH4325, and the MoabitesH4124 sawH7200 the waterH4325 on the other sideH5048 as redH122 as bloodH1818:
And they saidH559, This is bloodH1818: the kingsH4428 are surelyH2717 slainH2717, and they have smittenH5221 oneH376 anotherH7453: now therefore, MoabH4124, to the spoilH7998. {slain: Heb. destroyed}
And when they cameH935 to the campH4264 of IsraelH3478, the IsraelitesH3478 rose upH6965 and smoteH5221 the MoabitesH4124, so that they fledH5127 beforeH6440 them: but they went forwardH5221 smitingH5221 the MoabitesH4124, even in their country. {they went…: or, they smote in it even smiting}
And they beat downH2040 the citiesH5892, and on every goodH2896 pieceH2513 of land castH7993 every manH376 his stoneH68, and filledH4390 it; and they stoppedH5640 all the wellsH4599 of waterH4325, and felledH5307 all the goodH2896 treesH6086: only in KirharasethH7025 leftH7604 they the stonesH68 thereof; howbeit the slingersH7051 went aboutH5437 it, and smoteH5221 it. {only in…: Heb. until he left its stones in Kirharaseth}
And when the kingH4428 of MoabH4124 sawH7200 that the battleH4421 was too soreH2388 for him, he tookH3947 with him sevenH7651 hundredH3967 menH376 that drewH8025 swordsH2719, to break throughH1234 even unto the kingH4428 of EdomH123: but they couldH3201 not.
Then he tookH3947 his eldestH1060 sonH1121 that should have reignedH4427 in his stead, and offeredH5927 him for a burnt offeringH5930 upon the wallH2346. And there was greatH1419 indignationH7110 against IsraelH3478: and they departedH5265 from him, and returnedH7725 to their own landH776.

And when he numberedH6485 them in BezekH966, the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 were threeH7969 hundredH3967 thousandH505, and the menH376 of JudahH3063 thirtyH7970 thousandH505.
And SaulH7586 gatheredH8085 the peopleH5971 togetherH8085, and numberedH6485 them in TelaimH2923, two hundredH3967 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376 of JudahH3063.
And againH3254 the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 against IsraelH3478, and he movedH5496 DavidH1732 against them to sayH559, GoH3212, numberH4487 IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063.
For the kingH4428 saidH559 to JoabH3097 the captainH8269 of the hostH2428, which was with him, Go now throughH7751 all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, from DanH1835 even to BeershebaH884, and numberH6485 ye the peopleH5971, that I may knowH3045 the numberH4557 of the peopleH5971. {Go: or, Compass}
And JoabH3097 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, Now the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 addH3254 unto the peopleH5971, how many soeverH1992 they be, an hundredfoldH3967+H6471, and that the eyesH5869 of my lordH113 the kingH4428 may seeH7200 it: but why doth my lordH113 the kingH4428 delightH2654 in this thingH1697?
Notwithstanding the king'sH4428 wordH1697 prevailedH2388 against JoabH3097, and against the captainsH8269 of the hostH2428. And JoabH3097 and the captainsH8269 of the hostH2428 went outH3318 from the presenceH6440 of the kingH4428, to numberH6485 the peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478.
And they passed overH5674 JordanH3383, and pitchedH2583 in AroerH6177, on the right sideH3225 of the cityH5892 that lieth in the midstH8432 of the riverH5158 of GadH1410, and toward JazerH3270: {river: or, valley}
Then they cameH935 to GileadH1568, and to the landH776 of TahtimhodshiH8483; and they cameH935 to DanjaanH1842, and aboutH5439 to ZidonH6721, {land of Tahtimhodshi: or, nether land newly inhabited}
And cameH935 to the strong holdH4013 of TyreH6865, and to all the citiesH5892 of the HivitesH2340, and of the CanaanitesH3669: and they went outH3318 to the southH5045 of JudahH3063, even to BeershebaH884.
So when they had goneH7751 through all the landH776, they cameH935 to JerusalemH3389 at the endH7097 of nineH8672 monthsH2320 and twentyH6242 daysH3117.
And JoabH3097 gave upH5414 the sumH4557 of the numberH4662 of the peopleH5971 unto the kingH4428: and there were in IsraelH3478 eightH8083 hundredH3967 thousandH505 valiantH2428 menH376+H381 that drewH8025 the swordH2719; and the menH376 of JudahH3063 were fiveH2568 hundredH3967 thousandH505 menH376.
And David'sH1732 heartH3820 smoteH5221 him afterH310 that he had numberedH5608 the peopleH5971. And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, I have sinnedH2398 greatlyH3966 in that I have doneH6213: and now, I beseech thee, O LORDH3068, take awayH5674 the iniquityH5771 of thy servantH5650; for I have done veryH3966 foolishlyH5528.
For when DavidH1732 was upH6965 in the morningH1242, the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto the prophetH5030 GadH1410, David'sH1732 seerH2374, sayingH559,
GoH1980 and sayH559 unto DavidH1732, Thus saithH1696 the LORDH3068, I offerH5190 thee threeH7969 things; chooseH977 thee oneH259 of them, that I may do it unto theeH6213.
So GadH1410 cameH935 to DavidH1732, and toldH5046 him, and saidH559 unto him, Shall sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of famineH7458 comeH935 unto thee in thy landH776? or wilt thou fleeH5127 threeH7969 monthsH2320 beforeH6440 thine enemiesH6862, while they pursueH7291 thee? or that there be threeH7969 days'H3117 pestilenceH1698 in thy landH776? now adviseH3045, and seeH7200 what answerH1697 I shall returnH7725 to him that sentH7971 me.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto GadH1410, I am in a greatH3966 straitH6887: let us fallH5307 now into the handH3027 of the LORDH3068; for his merciesH7356 are greatH7227: and let me not fallH5307 into the handH3027 of manH120. {are great: or, are many}
So the LORDH3068 sentH5414 a pestilenceH1698 upon IsraelH3478 from the morningH1242 even to the timeH6256 appointedH4150: and there diedH4191 of the peopleH5971 from DanH1835 even to BeershebaH884 seventyH7657 thousandH505 menH376.
And when the angelH4397 stretched outH7971 his handH3027 upon JerusalemH3389 to destroyH7843 it, the LORDH3068 repentedH5162 him of the evilH7451, and saidH559 to the angelH4397 that destroyedH7843 the peopleH5971, It is enoughH7227: stayH7503 now thine handH3027. And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 was by the threshingplaceH1637 of AraunahH728 the JebusiteH2983.
And DavidH1732 spakeH559 unto the LORDH3068 when he sawH7200 the angelH4397 that smoteH5221 the peopleH5971, and saidH559, Lo, I have sinnedH2398, and I have done wickedlyH5753: but these sheepH6629, what have they doneH6213? let thine handH3027, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father'sH1 houseH1004.
And GadH1410 cameH935 that dayH3117 to DavidH1732, and saidH559 unto him, Go upH5927, rearH6965 an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068 in the threshingfloorH1637 of AraunahH728 the JebusiteH2983. {Araunah: Heb. Araniah}
And DavidH1732, according to the sayingH1697 of GadH1410, went upH5927 as the LORDH3068 commandedH6680.
And AraunahH728 lookedH8259, and sawH7200 the kingH4428 and his servantsH5650 coming onH5674 toward him: and AraunahH728 went outH3318, and bowedH7812 himself before the kingH4428 on his faceH639 upon the groundH776.
And AraunahH728 saidH559, Wherefore is my lordH113 the kingH4428 comeH935 to his servantH5650? And DavidH1732 saidH559, To buyH7069 the threshingfloorH1637 of thee, to buildH1129 an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068, that the plagueH4046 may be stayedH6113 from the peopleH5971.
And AraunahH728 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, Let my lordH113 the kingH4428 takeH3947 and offer upH5927 what seemeth goodH2896 unto himH5869: beholdH7200, here be oxenH1241 for burnt sacrificeH5930, and threshing instrumentsH4173 and other instrumentsH3627 of the oxenH1241 for woodH6086.
All these things did AraunahH728, as a kingH4428, giveH5414 unto the kingH4428. And AraunahH728 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, The LORDH3068 thy GodH430 acceptH7521 thee.
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto AraunahH728, Nay; but I will surelyH7069 buyH7069 it of thee at a priceH4242: neither will I offerH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 unto the LORDH3068 my GodH430 of that which doth cost me nothingH2600. So DavidH1732 boughtH7069 the threshingfloorH1637 and the oxenH1241 for fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701.
And DavidH1732 builtH1129 there an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068, and offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 and peace offeringsH8002. So the LORDH3068 was intreatedH6279 for the landH776, and the plagueH4046 was stayedH6113 from IsraelH3478.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 were numberedH6485, and were all presentH3557, and wentH3212 againstH7125 them: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 pitchedH2583 before them like twoH8147 little flocksH2835 of kidsH5795; but the SyriansH758 filledH4390 the countryH776. {were all…: or, were nourished}
