Then spokeH1696 ElishaH477 to the woman,H802 whoseH834 sonH1121 he had restoredH2421 to life,H2421 saying,H559 Arise,H6965 and goH3212 you and your household,H1004 and sojournH1481 whereverH834 you can sojourn:H1481 for the LORDH3068 has calledH7121 for a famine;H7458 and it shall alsoH1571 comeH935 on the landH776 sevenH7651 years.H8141
2
And the womanH802 arose,H6965 and didH6213 after the sayingH1697 of the manH376 of God:H430 and she wentH3212 with her household,H1004 and sojournedH1481 in the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430 sevenH7651 years.H8141
3
And it cameH1961 to pass at the sevenH7651 years'H8141 end,H7097 that the womanH802 returnedH7725 out of the landH776 of the Philistines:H6430 and she wentH3318 forthH3318 to cryH6817 to the kingH4428 for her houseH1004 and for her land.H7704
4
And the kingH4428 talkedH1696 with GehaziH1522 the servantH5288 of the manH376 of God,H430 saying,H559 TellH5608 me, I prayH4994 you, allH3605 the greatH1419 things that ElishaH477 has done.H6213
5
And it cameH1961 to pass, as he was tellingH5608 the kingH4428 howH834 he had restoredH2421 a deadH4191 body to life,H2421 that, behold,H2009 the woman,H802 whoseH834 sonH1121 he had restoredH2421 to life,H2421 criedH6817 to the kingH4428 for her houseH1004 and for her land.H7704 And GehaziH1522 said,H559 My lord,H113 O king,H4428 thisH2063 is the woman,H802 and thisH2088 is her son,H1121 whomH834 ElishaH477 restoredH2421 to life.H2421
6
And when the kingH4428 askedH7592 the woman,H802 she toldH5608 him. So the kingH4428 appointedH5414 to her a certain officer,H5631 saying,H559 RestoreH7725 allH3605 that was hers, and allH3605 the fruitsH8393 of the fieldH7704 since the dayH3117 that she leftH5800 the land,H776 even untilH5704 now.H6258
7
And ElishaH477 cameH935 to Damascus;H1834 and BenhadadH1130 the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 was sick;H2470 and it was toldH5046 him, saying,H559 The manH376 of GodH430 is comeH935 here.H2008
8
And the kingH4428 saidH559 to Hazael,H2371 TakeH3947 a presentH4503 in your hand,H3027 and go,H3212 meetH7125 the manH376 of God,H430 and inquireH1875 of the LORDH3068 by him, saying,H559 Shall I recoverH2421 of thisH2088 disease?H2483
9
So HazaelH2371 wentH3212 to meetH7125 him, and tookH3947 a presentH4503 with him, even of everyH3605 goodH2898 thing of Damascus,H1834 fortyH705 camels'H1581 burden,H4853 and cameH935 and stoodH5975 beforeH6440 him, and said,H559 Your sonH1121 BenhadadH1130 kingH4428 of SyriaH758 has sentH7971 me to you, saying,H559 Shall I recoverH2421 of thisH2088 disease?H2483
10
And ElishaH477 saidH559 to him, Go,H3212 sayH559 to him, You may certainly recover:H2421 however, the LORDH3068 has showedH7200 me that he shall surely die.H4191
11
And he settledH5975 his countenanceH6440 steadfastly,H7760 untilH5704 he was ashamed:H954 and the manH376 of GodH430 wept.H1058
12
And HazaelH2371 said,H559 WhyH4069 weepsH1058 my lord?H113 And he answered,H559 BecauseH3588 I knowH3045 the evilH7451 that you will doH6213 to the childrenH1121 of Israel:H3478 their strongH4013 holdsH4013 will you setH7971 on fire,H784 and their youngH970 men will you slayH2026 with the sword,H2719 and will dashH7376 their children,H5768 and ripH1234 up their women with child.H2030
13
And HazaelH2371 said,H559 But what,H4100 is your servantH5650 a dog,H3611 that he should doH6213 thisH2088 greatH1419 thing?H1697 And ElishaH477 answered,H559 The LORDH3068 has showedH7200 me that you shall be kingH4428 overH5921 Syria.H758
14
So he departedH3212 from Elisha,H477 and cameH935 to his master;H113 who saidH559 to him, WhatH4100 saidH559 ElishaH477 to you? And he answered,H559 He toldH559 me that you should surely recover.H2421
15
And it cameH1961 to pass on the morrow,H4283 that he tookH3947 a thick cloth,H4346 and dippedH2881 it in water,H4325 and spreadH6566 it onH5921 his face,H6440 so that he died:H4191 and HazaelH2371 reignedH4427 in his stead.H8478
16
And in the fifthH2568 yearH8141 of JoramH3141 the sonH1121 of AhabH256 kingH4428 of Israel,H3478 JehoshaphatH3092 being then kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 JehoramH3088 the sonH1121 of JehoshaphatH3092 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 began to reign.H4427
17
ThirtyH7970 and twoH8147 yearsH8141 oldH1121 was he when he began to reign;H4427 and he reignedH4427 eightH8083 yearsH8141 in Jerusalem.H3389
18
And he walkedH3212 in the wayH1870 of the kingsH4428 of Israel,H3478 as didH6213 the houseH1004 of Ahab:H256 for the daughterH1323 of AhabH256 was his wife:H802 and he didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORD.H3068
19
Yet the LORDH3068 wouldH14 not destroyH7843 JudahH3063 for DavidH1732 his servant'sH5650 sake,H4616 as he promisedH559 him to giveH5414 him alwaysH3605 H3117 a light,H5216 and to his children.H1121
20
In his daysH3117 EdomH123 revoltedH6586 from underH8478 the handH3027 of Judah,H3063 and made a kingH4428 overH5921 themselves.H1992
21
So JoramH3141 wentH5674 overH5674 to Zair,H6811 and allH3605 the chariotsH7393 with him: and he roseH6965 by night,H3915 and smoteH5221 the EdomitesH130 which compassedH5437 him about,H413 and the captainsH8269 of the chariots:H7393 and the peopleH5971 fledH5127 into their tents.H168
22
Yet EdomH123 revoltedH6586 from underH8478 the handH3027 of JudahH3063 to thisH2088 day.H3117 ThenH227 LibnahH3841 revoltedH6586 at the sameH1931 time.H6256
23
And the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of Joram,H3141 and allH3605 that he did,H6213 are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697 H3117 of the kingsH4428 of Judah?H3063
24
And JoramH3141 sleptH7901 with his fathers,H1 and was buriedH6912 with his fathersH1 in the cityH5892 of David:H1732 and AhaziahH274 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.H8478
25
In the twelfthH8147 H6240 yearH8141 of JoramH3141 the sonH1121 of AhabH256 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 did AhaziahH274 the sonH1121 of JehoramH3088 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 begin to reign.H4427
26
TwoH8147 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 was AhaziahH274 when he began to reign;H4427 and he reigned oneH259 yearH8141 in Jerusalem.H3389 And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was Athaliah,H6271 the daughterH1323 of OmriH6018 kingH4428 of Israel.H3478
27
And he walkedH3212 in the wayH1870 of the houseH1004 of Ahab,H256 and didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORD,H3068 as did the houseH1004 of Ahab:H256 for he was the sonH2860 in lawH2859 of the houseH1004 of Ahab.H256
28
And he wentH3212 with JoramH3141 the sonH1121 of AhabH256 to the warH4421 againstH5973 HazaelH2371 kingH4428 of SyriaH758 in Ramothgilead;H7433 and the SyriansH761 woundedH5221 Joram.H3141
29
And kingH4428 JoramH3141 wentH7725 backH7725 to be healedH7495 in JezreelH3157 of the woundsH4347 whichH834 the SyriansH761 had givenH5221 him at Ramah,H7414 when he foughtH3898 against HazaelH2371 kingH4428 of Syria.H758 And AhaziahH274 the sonH1121 of JehoramH3088 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 wentH3381 downH3381 to seeH7200 JoramH3141 the sonH1121 of AhabH256 in Jezreel,H3157 becauseH3588 he was sick.H2470
