And he divided H2505 himself against H5921 them, he and his servants, H5650 by night, H3915 and smote H5221 them, and pursued H7291 them to Hobah, H2327 which H834 is on the left H8040 hand H8040 of Damascus. H1834

And Elisha H477 came H935 to Damascus; H1834 and Benhadad H1130 the king H4428 of Syria H758 was sick; H2470 and it was told H5046 him, saying, H559 The man H376 of God H430 is come H935 here. H2008

And desired G154 of him letters G1992 to Damascus G1154 to the synagogues, G4864 that if G1437 he found G2147 any G5100 of this G3588 way, G3598 whether G5037 they were men G435 or G2532 women, G1135 he might bring G71 them bound G1210 to Jerusalem. G2419

And as he journeyed, G4198 he came G1096 near G1448 Damascus: G1154 and suddenly G1810 there shined G4015 round G4015 about G4015 him a light G5457 from heaven: G3772

Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD H3068 to his anointed, H4899 to Cyrus, H3566 whose H834 right H3225 hand H3225 I have held, H2388 to subdue H7286 nations H1471 before H6440 him; and I will loose H6605 the loins H4975 of kings, H4428 to open H6605 before H6440 him the two leaved H1817 gates; H1817 and the gates H8179 shall not be shut; H5462

See, H7200 I have this H2088 day H3117 set H6485 you over H5921 the nations H1471 and over H5921 the kingdoms, H4467 to root H5428 out, and to pull H5422 down, and to destroy, H6 and to throw H2040 down, H2040 to build, H1129 and to plant. H5193

Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD H3068 to me; Make H6213 you bonds H4147 and yokes, H4133 and put H5414 them on your neck, H6677

And command H6680 them to say H559 to their masters, H113 Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts, H6635 the God H430 of Israel; H3478 Thus H3541 shall you say H559 to your masters; H113

And now H6258 have I given H5414 all H3605 these H428 lands H776 into H413 the hand H3027 of Nebuchadnezzar H5019 the king H4428 of Babylon, H894 my servant; H5650 and the beasts H2416 of the field H7704 have I given H5414 him also H1571 to serve H5647 him.

And it shall come H1961 to pass, that the nation H1471 and kingdom H4467 which H834 will not serve H5647 the same Nebuchadnezzar H5019 the king H4428 of Babylon, H894 and that will not put H5414 their neck H6677 under the yoke H5923 of the king H4428 of Babylon, H894 that nation H1471 will I punish, H6485 said H5002 the LORD, H3068 with the sword, H2719 and with the famine, H7458 and with the pestilence, H1698 until H5704 I have consumed H8552 them by his hand. H3027

For they prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 to you, to remove H7368 you far H7368 from your land; H127 and that I should drive H5080 you out, and you should perish. H6

I spoke H1696 also to Zedekiah H6667 king H4428 of Judah H3063 according to all H3605 these H428 words, H1697 saying, H559 Bring H935 your necks H6677 under the yoke H5923 of the king H4428 of Babylon, H894 and serve H5647 him and his people, H5971 and live. H2421

Therefore listen H8085 not to the words H1697 of the prophets H5030 that speak H559 to you, saying, H559 You shall not serve H5647 the king H4428 of Babylon: H894 for they prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 to you.

Also I spoke H1696 to the priests H3548 and to all H3605 this H2088 people, H5971 saying, H559 Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD; H3068 Listen H8085 not to the words H1697 of your prophets H5030 that prophesy H5012 to you, saying, H559 Behold, H2009 the vessels H3627 of the LORD's H3068 house H1004 shall now H6258 shortly H4120 be brought H7725 again H7725 from Babylon: H894 for they prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 to you.

But if H518 they be prophets, H5030 and if H518 the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 be with them, let them now H4994 make intercession H6293 to the LORD H3068 of hosts, H6635 that the vessels H3627 which are left H3498 in the house H1004 of the LORD, H3068 and in the house H1004 of the king H4428 of Judah, H3063 and at Jerusalem, H3389 go H935 not to Babylon. H894

Which H834 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 took H3947 not, when he carried H1546 away captive H1540 Jeconiah H3204 the son H1121 of Jehoiakim H3079 king H4428 of Judah H3063 from Jerusalem H3389 to Babylon, H894 and all H3605 the nobles H2715 of Judah H3063 and Jerusalem; H3389

They shall be carried H935 to Babylon, H894 and there H8033 shall they be until H5704 the day H3117 that I visit H6485 them, said H5002 the LORD; H3068 then will I bring H5927 them up, and restore H7725 them to this H2008 place. H4725

And the king H4428 said H559 to Hazael, H2371 Take H3947 a present H4503 in your hand, H3027 and go, H3212 meet H7125 the man H376 of God, H430 and inquire H1875 of the LORD H3068 by him, saying, H559 Shall I recover H2421 of this H2088 disease? H2483

And Elisha H477 said H559 to him, Go, H3212 say H559 to him, You may certainly recover: H2421 however, the LORD H3068 has showed H7200 me that he shall surely die. H4191

And Hazael H2371 said, H559 Why H4069 weeps H1058 my lord? H113 And he answered, H559 Because H3588 I know H3045 the evil H7451 that you will do H6213 to the children H1121 of Israel: H3478 their strong H4013 holds H4013 will you set H7971 on fire, H784 and their young H970 men will you slay H2026 with the sword, H2719 and will dash H7376 their children, H5768 and rip H1234 up their women with child. H2030

So he departed H3212 from Elisha, H477 and came H935 to his master; H113 who said H559 to him, What H4100 said H559 Elisha H477 to you? And he answered, H559 He told H559 me that you should surely recover. H2421

So Jehu H3058 the son H1121 of Jehoshaphat H3092 the son H1121 of Nimshi H5250 conspired H7194 against H413 Joram. H3141 (Now Joram H3141 had kept H8104 Ramothgilead, H7433 he and all H3605 Israel, H3478 because H6440 of Hazael H2371 king H4428 of Syria. H758

But I will send H7971 a fire H784 into the house H1004 of Hazael, H2371 which shall devour H398 the palaces H759 of Benhadad. H1130
