And the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 saidH559 untoH6440 ElishaH477, Behold now, the placeH4725 where we dwellH3427 with thee is too straitH6862 for us.
Let us goH3212, we pray thee, unto JordanH3383, and takeH3947 thence every manH376 aH259 beamH6982, and let us makeH6213 us a placeH4725 there, where we may dwellH3427. And he answeredH559, GoH3212 ye.
And oneH259 saidH559, Be contentH2974, I pray thee, and goH3212 with thy servantsH5650. And he answeredH559, I will goH3212.
So he wentH3212 with them. And when they cameH935 to JordanH3383, they cut downH1504 woodH6086.
But as oneH259 was fellingH5307 a beamH6982, the axe headH1270 fellH5307 into the waterH4325: and he criedH6817, and saidH559, AlasH162, masterH113! for it was borrowedH7592. {axe head: Heb. iron}
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.
Therefore saidH559 he, Take it upH7311 to thee. And he put outH7971 his handH3027, and tookH3947 it.
Then the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 warredH3898 against IsraelH3478, and took counselH3289 with his servantsH5650, sayingH559, In suchH6423 and suchH492 a placeH4725 shall be my campH8466. {camp: or, encamping}
And the manH376 of GodH430 sentH7971 unto the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, BewareH8104 that thou passH5674 not suchH2088 a placeH4725; for thither the SyriansH758 are come downH5185.
And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 sentH7971 to the placeH4725 which the manH376 of GodH430 toldH559 him and warnedH2094 him of, and savedH8104 himself there, not onceH259 nor twiceH8147.
Therefore the heartH3820 of the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 was sore troubledH5590 for this thingH1697; and he calledH7121 his servantsH5650, and saidH559 unto them, Will ye not shewH5046 me which of us is for the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478?
And oneH259 of his servantsH5650 saidH559, None, my lordH113, O kingH4428: but ElishaH477, the prophetH5030 that is in IsraelH3478, tellethH5046 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 the wordsH1697 that thou speakestH1696 in thy bedchamberH2315+H4904. {None: Heb. No}
And he saidH559, GoH3212 and spyH7200 whereH351 he is, that I may sendH7971 and fetchH3947 him. And it was toldH5046 him, sayingH559, Behold, he is in DothanH1886.
Therefore sentH7971 he thither horsesH5483, and chariotsH7393, and a greatH3515 hostH2428: and they cameH935 by nightH3915, and compassedH5362 the cityH5892 aboutH5362. {great: Heb. heavy}
And when the servantH8334 of the manH376 of GodH430 was risenH6965 earlyH7925, and gone forthH3318, behold, an hostH2428 compassedH5437 the cityH5892 both with horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393. And his servantH5288 saidH559 unto him, AlasH162, my masterH113! how shall we doH6213? {the servant: or, the minister}
And he answeredH559, FearH3372 not: for they that be with us are moreH7227 than they that be with them.
And ElishaH477 prayedH6419, and saidH559, LORDH3068, I pray thee, openH6491 his eyesH5869, that he may seeH7200. And the LORDH3068 openedH6491 the eyesH5869 of the young manH5288; and he sawH7200: and, behold, the mountainH2022 was fullH4390 of horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393 of fireH784 round aboutH5439 ElishaH477.
And when they came downH3381 to him, ElishaH477 prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559, SmiteH5221 this peopleH1471, I pray thee, with blindnessH5575. And he smoteH5221 them with blindnessH5575 according to the wordH1697 of ElishaH477.
And ElishaH477 saidH559 unto them, This is not the wayH1870, neither is thisH2090 the cityH5892: followH3212+H310 me, and I will bringH3212 you to the manH376 whom ye seekH1245. But he ledH3212 them to SamariaH8111. {follow…: Heb. come ye after me}
And it came to pass, when they were comeH935 into SamariaH8111, that ElishaH477 saidH559, LORDH3068, openH6491 the eyesH5869 of these men, that they may seeH7200. And the LORDH3068 openedH6491 their eyesH5869, and they sawH7200; and, behold, they were in the midstH8432 of SamariaH8111.
And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto ElishaH477, when he sawH7200 them, My fatherH1, shall I smiteH5221 them? shall I smiteH5221 them?
And he answeredH559, Thou shalt not smiteH5221 them: wouldest thou smiteH5221 those whom thou hast taken captiveH7617 with thy swordH2719 and with thy bowH7198? setH7760 breadH3899 and waterH4325 beforeH6440 them, that they may eatH398 and drinkH8354, and goH3212 to their masterH113.
And he preparedH3739 greatH1419 provisionH3740 for them: and when they had eatenH398 and drunkH8354, he sent them awayH7971, and they wentH3212 to their masterH113. So the bandsH1416 of SyriaH758 cameH935 no moreH3254 into the landH776 of IsraelH3478.
And it came to pass after thisH310, that BenhadadH1130 kingH4428 of SyriaH758 gatheredH6908 all his hostH4264, and went upH5927, and besiegedH6696 SamariaH8111.
And there was a greatH1419 famineH7458 in SamariaH8111: and, behold, they besiegedH6696 it, until an ass'sH2543 headH7218 was sold for fourscoreH8084 pieces of silverH3701, and the fourth partH7255 of a cabH6894 of dove's dungH1686+H3123+H2755 for fiveH2568 pieces of silverH3701.
And as the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 was passing byH5674 upon the wallH2346, there criedH6817 a womanH802 unto him, sayingH559, HelpH3467, my lordH113, O kingH4428.
And he saidH559, If the LORDH3068 do not helpH3467 thee, whenceH370 shall I helpH3467 thee? out of the barnfloorH1637, or out of the winepressH3342? {If…: or, Let not the LORD save thee}
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto her, What aileth thee? And she answeredH559, This womanH802 saidH559 unto me, GiveH5414 thy sonH1121, that we may eatH398 him to dayH3117, and we will eatH398 my sonH1121 to morrowH4279.
So we boiledH1310 my sonH1121, and did eatH398 him: and I saidH559 unto her on the nextH312 dayH3117, GiveH5414 thy sonH1121, that we may eatH398 him: and she hath hidH2244 her sonH1121. {next: Heb. other}
And it came to pass, when the kingH4428 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of the womanH802, that he rentH7167 his clothesH899; and he passed byH5674 upon the wallH2346, and the peopleH5971 lookedH7200, and, behold, he had sackclothH8242 withinH1004 upon his fleshH1320.
Then he saidH559, GodH430 doH6213 so and moreH3254 also to me, if the headH7218 of ElishaH477 the sonH1121 of ShaphatH8202 shall standH5975 on him this dayH3117.
But ElishaH477 satH3427 in his houseH1004, and the eldersH2205 satH3427 with him; and the king sentH7971 a manH376 from beforeH6440 him: but ere the messengerH4397 cameH935 to him, he saidH559 to the eldersH2205, SeeH7200 ye how this sonH1121 of a murdererH7523 hath sentH7971 to take awayH5493 mine headH7218? lookH7200, when the messengerH4397 comethH935, shutH5462 the doorH1817, and hold him fastH3905 at the doorH1817: is not the soundH6963 of his master'sH113 feetH7272 behindH310 him?
And while he yet talkedH1696 with them, behold, the messengerH4397 came downH3381 unto him: and he saidH559, Behold, this evilH7451 is of the LORDH3068; what should I waitH3176 for the LORDH3068 any longer?

And it shall be, if it make thee answerH6030 of peaceH7965, and openH6605 unto thee, then it shall be, that all the peopleH5971 that is foundH4672 therein shall be tributariesH4522 unto thee, and they shall serveH5647 thee.
And if it will make no peaceH7999 with thee, but will makeH6213 warH4421 against thee, then thou shalt besiegeH6696 it:
And when the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath deliveredH5414 it into thine handsH3027, thou shalt smiteH5221 every maleH2138 thereof with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719:
But the womenH802, and the little onesH2945, and the cattleH929, and all that is in the cityH5892, even all the spoilH7998 thereof, shalt thou takeH962 unto thyself; and thou shalt eatH398 the spoilH7998 of thine enemiesH341, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee. {take: Heb. spoil}
Thus shalt thou doH6213 unto all the citiesH5892 which are veryH3966 far offH7350 from thee, whichH2007 are not of the citiesH5892 of these nationsH1471.
But of the citiesH5892 of these peopleH5971, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 doth giveH5414 thee for an inheritanceH5159, thou shalt save aliveH2421 nothing that breathethH5397:
Moreover I have givenH5414 to thee oneH259 portionH7926 above thy brethrenH251, which I tookH3947 out of the handH3027 of the AmoriteH567 with my swordH2719 and with my bowH7198.
If thine enemyH8130 be hungryH7457, give him breadH3899 to eatH398; and if he be thirstyH6771, give him waterH4325 to drinkH8248:
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 carried away captiveH7617 of their brethrenH251 two hundredH3967 thousandH505, womenH802, sonsH1121, and daughtersH1323, and took also awayH962 muchH7227 spoilH7998 from them, and broughtH935 the spoilH7998 to SamariaH8111.
But a prophetH5030 of the LORDH3068 was there, whose nameH8034 was OdedH5752: and he went outH3318 beforeH6440 the hostH6635 that cameH935 to SamariaH8111, and saidH559 unto them, Behold, because the LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1 was wrothH2534 with JudahH3063, he hath deliveredH5414 them into your handH3027, and ye have slainH2026 them in a rageH2197 that reacheth upH5060 unto heavenH8064.
And now ye purposeH559 to keep underH3533 the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 for bondmenH5650 and bondwomenH8198 unto you: but are there not with you, evenH7535 with you, sinsH819 against the LORDH3068 your GodH430?
Now hearH8085 me therefore, and deliverH7725 the captivesH7633 again, which ye have taken captiveH7617 of your brethrenH251: for the fierceH2740 wrathH639 of the LORDH3068 is upon you.
Then certainH582 of the headsH7218 of the childrenH1121 of EphraimH669, AzariahH5838 the sonH1121 of JohananH3076, BerechiahH1296 the sonH1121 of MeshillemothH4919, and JehizkiahH3169 the sonH1121 of ShallumH7967, and AmasaH6021 the sonH1121 of HadlaiH2311, stood upH6965 against them that cameH935 from the warH6635,
And saidH559 unto them, Ye shall not bring inH935 the captivesH7633 hither: for whereas we have offendedH819 against the LORDH3068 already, ye intendH559 to addH3254 more to our sinsH2403 and to our trespassH819: for our trespassH819 is greatH7227, and there is fierceH2740 wrathH639 against IsraelH3478.
And I sentH7971 the hornetH6880 beforeH6440 you, which drave them outH1644 from beforeH6440 you, even the twoH8147 kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567; but not with thy swordH2719, nor with thy bowH7198.
For thou shalt heapH2846 coals of fireH1513 upon his headH7218, and the LORDH3068 shall rewardH7999 thee.
ButG1161 IG1473 sayG3004 unto youG5213, LoveG25 yourG5216 enemiesG2190, blessG2127 them that curseG2672 youG5209, doG4160 goodG2573 to them that hateG3404 youG5209, andG2532 prayG4336 forG5228 them whichG3588 despitefully useG1908 youG5209, andG2532 persecuteG1377 youG5209;
But I will have mercyH7355 upon the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, and will saveH3467 them by the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and will not saveH3467 them by bowH7198, nor by swordH2719, nor by battleH4421, by horsesH5483, nor by horsemenH6571.
ThereforeG3767 ifG1437 thineG4675 enemyG2190 hungerG3983, feedG5595 himG846; ifG1437 he thirstG1372, giveG4222 himG846 drinkG4222: forG1063 in soG5124 doingG4160 thou shalt heapG4987 coalsG440 of fireG4442 onG1909 hisG846 headG2776.
And in that dayH3117 will I makeH3772 a covenantH1285 for them with the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704, and with the fowlsH5775 of heavenH8064, and with the creeping thingsH7431 of the groundH127: and I will breakH7665 the bowH7198 and the swordH2719 and the battleH4421 out of the earthH776, and will make them to lie downH7901 safelyH983.
