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 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.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Even thus shall the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 eatH398 their defiledH2931 breadH3899 among the GentilesH1471, whither I will driveH5080 them.
Then saidH559 I, AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! behold, my soulH5315 hath not been pollutedH2930: for from my youthH5271 up even till now have I not eatenH398 of that which dieth of itselfH5038, or is torn in piecesH2966; neither cameH935 there abominableH6292 fleshH1320 into my mouthH6310.
Then he saidH559 unto me, LoH7200, I have givenH5414 thee cow'sH1241 dungH6832+H6832 for man'sH120 dungH1561, and thou shalt prepareH6213 thy breadH3899 therewith.
Moreover he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, behold, I will breakH7665 the staffH4294 of breadH3899 in JerusalemH3389: and they shall eatH398 breadH3899 by weightH4948, and with careH1674; and they shall drinkH8354 waterH4325 by measureH4884, and with astonishmentH8078:
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}
If we sayH559, We will enterH935 into the cityH5892, then the famineH7458 is in the cityH5892, and we shall dieH4191 there: and if we sit stillH3427 here, we dieH4191 also. Now therefore comeH3212, and let us fallH5307 unto the hostH4264 of the SyriansH758: if they save us aliveH2421, we shall liveH2421; and if they killH4191 us, we shall but dieH4191.
And on the ninthH8672 day of the fourth monthH2320 the famineH7458 prevailedH2388 in the cityH5892, and there was no breadH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
And ElijahH452 wentH3212 to shewH7200 himself unto AhabH256. And there was a soreH2389 famineH7458 in SamariaH8111.
Then saidH559 I, AhH162, LordH136 GODH3069! behold, the prophetsH5030 sayH559 unto them, Ye shall not seeH7200 the swordH2719, neither shall ye have famineH7458; but I will giveH5414 you assuredH571 peaceH7965 in this placeH4725. {assured…: Heb. peace of truth}
Then the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, The prophetsH5030 prophesyH5012 liesH8267 in my nameH8034: I sentH7971 them not, neither have I commandedH6680 them, neither spakeH1696 unto them: they prophesyH5012 unto you a falseH8267 visionH2377 and divinationH7081, and a thing of noughtH457+H434, and the deceitH8649 of their heartH3820.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 concerning the prophetsH5030 that prophesyH5012 in my nameH8034, and I sentH7971 them not, yet they sayH559, SwordH2719 and famineH7458 shall not be in this landH776; By swordH2719 and famineH7458 shall those prophetsH5030 be consumedH8552.
If I go forthH3318 into the fieldH7704, then behold the slainH2491 with the swordH2719! and if I enterH935 into the cityH5892, then behold them that are sickH8463 with famineH7458! yea, both the prophetH5030 and the priestH3548 go aboutH5503 into a landH776 that they knowH3045 not. {go about…: or, make merchandise against a land, and men acknowledge it not}
Behold the mountsH5550, they are comeH935 unto the cityH5892 to takeH3920 it; and the cityH5892 is givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778, that fightH3898 against it, becauseH6440 of the swordH2719, and of the famineH7458, and of the pestilenceH1698: and what thou hast spokenH1696 is come to pass; and, behold, thou seestH7200 it. {mounts: or, engines of shot}
