2 Kings 8

Then spake
<01696> (8765)
Elisha
<0477>
unto the woman
<0802>_,
whose son
<01121>
he had restored to life
<02421> (8689)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Arise
<06965> (8798)_,
and go
<03212> (8798)
thou and thine household
<01004>_,
and sojourn
<01481> (8798)
wheresoever
<0834>
thou canst sojourn
<01481> (8799)_:
for the LORD
<03068>
hath called
<07121> (8804)
for a famine
<07458>_;
and it shall also come
<0935> (8804)
upon the land
<0776>
seven
<07651>
years
<08141>_.
And the woman
<0802>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and did
<06213> (8799)
after the saying
<01697>
of the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_:
and she went
<03212> (8799)
with her household
<01004>_,
and sojourned
<01481> (8799)
in the land
<0776>
of the Philistines
<06430>
seven
<07651>
years
<08141>_.
And it came to pass at the seven
<07651>
years
<08141>_'
end
<07097>_,
that the woman
<0802>
returned
<07725> (8799)
out of the land
<0776>
of the Philistines
<06430>_:
and she went forth
<03318> (8799)
to cry
<06817> (8800)
unto the king
<04428>
for her house
<01004>
and for her land
<07704>_.
And the king
<04428>
talked
<01696> (8764)
with Gehazi
<01522>
the servant
<05288>
of the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Tell
<05608> (8761)
me, I pray thee, all the great things
<01419>
that Elisha
<0477>
hath done
<06213> (8804)_.
And it came to pass, as he was telling
<05608> (8764)
the king
<04428>
how he had restored
<02421> (0)
a dead body
<04191> (8801)
to life
<02421> (8689)_,
that, behold, the woman
<0802>_,
whose son
<01121>
he had restored to life
<02421> (8689)_,
cried
<06817> (8802)
to the king
<04428>
for her house
<01004>
and for her land
<07704>_.
And Gehazi
<01522>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
My lord
<0113>_,
O king
<04428>_,
this [is] the woman
<0802>_,
and this [is] her son
<01121>_,
whom Elisha
<0477>
restored to life
<02421> (8689)_.
And when the king
<04428>
asked
<07592> (8799)
the woman
<0802>_,
she told
<05608> (8762)
him. So the king
<04428>
appointed
<05414> (8799)
unto her a certain
<0259>
officer
<05631>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Restore
<07725> (8685)
all that [was] hers, and all the fruits
<08393>
of the field
<07704>
since the day
<03117>
that she left
<05800> (8800)
the land
<0776>_,
even until now. {officer: or, eunuch}
And Elisha
<0477>
came
<0935> (8799)
to Damascus
<01834>_;
and Benhadad
<01130>
the king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>
was sick
<02470> (8802)_;
and it was told
<05046> (8714)
him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
is come
<0935> (8804)
hither
<02008>_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Hazael
<02371>_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
a present
<04503>
in thine hand
<03027>_,
and go
<03212> (8798)_,
meet
<07125> (8800)
the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
and enquire
<01875> (8804)
of the LORD
<03068>
by him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Shall I recover
<02421> (8799)
of this disease
<02483>_?
So Hazael
<02371>
went
<03212> (8799)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
him, and took
<03947> (8799)
a present
<04503>
with him
<03027>_,
even of every good thing
<02898>
of Damascus
<01834>_,
forty
<0705>
camels
<01581>_'
burden
<04853>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
and stood
<05975> (8799)
before
<06440>
him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thy son
<01121>
Benhadad
<01130>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>
hath sent
<07971> (8804)
me to thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Shall I recover
<02421> (8799)
of this disease
<02483>_?
{with...: Heb. in his hand}
And Elisha
<0477>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Go
<03212> (8798)_,
say
<0559> (8798)
unto him, Thou mayest certainly
<02421> (8800)
recover
<02421> (8799)_:
howbeit the LORD
<03068>
hath shewed
<07200> (8689)
me that he shall surely
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8799)_.
And he settled
<05975> (8686)
his countenance
<06440>
stedfastly
<07760> (8799)_,
until he was ashamed
<0954> (8800)_:
and the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
wept
<01058> (8799)_.
{stedfastly: Heb. and set it}
And Hazael
<02371>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Why weepeth
<01058> (8802)
my lord
<0113>_?
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
Because I know
<03045> (8804)
the evil
<07451>
that thou wilt do
<06213> (8799)
unto the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_:
their strong holds
<04013>
wilt thou set
<07971> (8762)
on fire
<0784>_,
and their young men
<0970>
wilt thou slay
<02026> (8799)
with the sword
<02719>_,
and wilt dash
<07376> (8762)
their children
<05768>_,
and rip up
<01234> (8762)
their women with child
<02030>_.
And Hazael
<02371>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
But what, [is] thy servant
<05650>
a dog
<03611>_,
that he should do
<06213> (8799)
this great
<01419>
thing
<01697>_?
And Elisha
<0477>
answered
<0559> (8799)_,
The LORD
<03068>
hath shewed
<07200> (8689)
me that thou [shalt be] king
<04428>
over Syria
<0758>_.
So he departed
<03212> (8799)
from Elisha
<0477>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to his master
<0113>_;
who said
<0559> (8799)
to him, What said
<0559> (8804)
Elisha
<0477>
to thee? And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
He told
<0559> (8804)
me [that] thou shouldest surely
<02421> (8800)
recover
<02421> (8799)_.
And it came to pass on the morrow
<04283>_,
that he took
<03947> (8799)
a thick cloth
<04346>_,
and dipped
<02881> (8799)
[it] in water
<04325>_,
and spread
<06566> (8799)
[it] on his face
<06440>_,
so that he died
<04191> (8799)_:
and Hazael
<02371>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
in his stead.
And in the fifth
<02568>
year
<08141>
of Joram
<03141>
the son
<01121>
of Ahab
<0256>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Jehoshaphat
<03092>
[being] then king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
Jehoram
<03088>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoshaphat
<03092>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
began to reign
<04427> (8804)_.
{began...: Heb. reigned}
Thirty
<07970>
and two
<08147>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
was he when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_;
and he reigned
<04427> (8804)
eight
<08083>
years
<08141>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And he walked
<03212> (8799)
in the way
<01870>
of the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
as did
<06213> (8804)
the house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>_:
for the daughter
<01323>
of Ahab
<0256>
was his wife
<0802>_:
and he did
<06213> (8799)
evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
Yet the LORD
<03068>
would
<014> (8804)
not destroy
<07843> (8687)
Judah
<03063>
for David
<01732>
his servant's
<05650>
sake, as he promised
<0559> (8804)
him to give
<05414> (8800)
him alway
<03117>
a light
<05216>_,
[and] to his children
<01121>_.
{light: Heb. candle, or, lamp}
In his days
<03117>
Edom
<0123>
revolted
<06586> (8804)
from under the hand
<03027>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and made
<04427> (8686)
a king
<04428>
over themselves.
So Joram
<03141>
went over
<05674> (8799)
to Zair
<06811>_,
and all the chariots
<07393>
with him: and he rose
<06965> (8804)
by night
<03915>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
the Edomites
<0123>
which compassed him about
<05437> (8802)_,
and the captains
<08269>
of the chariots
<07393>_:
and the people
<05971>
fled
<05127> (8799)
into their tents
<0168>_.
Yet Edom
<0123>
revolted
<06586> (8799)
from under the hand
<03027>
of Judah
<03063>
unto this day
<03117>_.
Then Libnah
<03841>
revolted
<06586> (8799)
at the same
<01931>
time
<06256>_.
And the rest
<03499>
of the acts
<01697>
of Joram
<03141>_,
and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,
[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>
of the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_?
And Joram
<03141>
slept
<07901> (8799)
with his fathers
<01>_,
and was buried
<06912> (8735)
with his fathers
<01>
in the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_:
and Ahaziah
<0274>
his son
<01121>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
in his stead. {Ahaziah: also called, Azariah, and Jehoahaz}
In the twelfth
<08147> <06240> <08141>
year
<08141>
of Joram
<03141>
the son
<01121>
of Ahab
<0256>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
did Ahaziah
<0274>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoram
<03088>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
begin to reign
<04427> (8804)_.
Two
<08147>
and twenty
<06242>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
[was] Ahaziah
<0274>
when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_;
and he reigned
<04427> (8804)
one
<0259>
year
<08141>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And his mother's
<0517>
name
<08034>
[was] Athaliah
<06271>_,
the daughter
<01323>
of Omri
<06018>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{daughter: or, granddaughter}
And he walked
<03212> (8799)
in the way
<01870>
of the house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>_,
and did
<06213> (8799)
evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
as [did] the house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>_:
for he [was] the son in law
<02860>
of the house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>_.
And he went
<03212> (8799)
with Joram
<03141>
the son
<01121>
of Ahab
<0256>
to the war
<04421>
against Hazael
<02371>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>
in Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_;
and the Syrians
<0761>
wounded
<05221> (8686)
Joram
<03141>_.
And king
<04428>
Joram
<03141>
went back
<07725> (8799)
to be healed
<07495> (8692)
in Jezreel
<03157>
of the wounds
<04347>
which the Syrians
<0761>
had given
<05221> (8686)
him at Ramah
<07414>_,
when he fought
<03898> (8736)
against Hazael
<02371>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>_.
And Ahaziah
<0274>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoram
<03088>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
went down
<03381> (8804)
to see
<07200> (8800)
Joram
<03141>
the son
<01121>
of Ahab
<0256>
in Jezreel
<03157>_,
because he was sick
<02470> (8802)_.
{which...: Heb. wherewith the Syrians had wounded} {Ramah: called Ramoth} {sick: Heb. wounded}
