1 Then Moab 04124 rebelled 06586 08799 against Israel 03478 after 0310 the death 04194 of Ahab 0256.
2 And Ahaziah 0274 fell down 05307 08799 through a lattice 07639 in his upper chamber 05944 that [was] in Samaria 08111, and was sick 02470 08799: and he sent 07971 08799 messengers 04397, and said 0559 08799 unto them, Go 03212 08798, enquire 01875 08798 of Baalzebub 01176 the god 0430 of Ekron 06138 whether I shall recover 02421 08799 of this disease 02483.
3 But the angel 04397 of the LORD 03068 said 01696 08765 to Elijah 0452 the Tishbite 08664, Arise 06965 08798, go up 05927 08798 to meet 07125 08800 the messengers 04397 of the king 04428 of Samaria 08111, and say 01696 08761 unto them, [Is it] not because [there is] not a God 0430 in Israel 03478, [that] ye go 01980 08802 to enquire 01875 08800 of Baalzebub 01176 the god 0430 of Ekron 06138?
4 Now therefore thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, Thou shalt not come down 03381 08799 from that bed 04296 on which thou art gone up 05927 08804, but shalt surely 04191 08800 die 04191 08799. And Elijah 0452 departed 03212 08799.
5 And when the messengers 04397 turned back 07725 08799 unto him, he said 0559 08799 unto them, Why are ye now 02088 turned back 07725 08804?
6 And they said 0559 08799 unto him, There came 05927 00 a man 0376 up 05927 08804 to meet 07125 08800 us, and said 0559 08799 unto us, Go 03212 08798, turn again 07725 08798 unto the king 04428 that sent 07971 08804 you, and say 01696 08765 unto him, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, [Is it] not because [there is] not a God 0430 in Israel 03478, [that] thou sendest 07971 08802 to enquire 01875 08800 of Baalzebub 01176 the god 0430 of Ekron 06138? therefore thou shalt not come down 03381 08799 from that bed 04296 on which thou art gone up 05927 08804, but shalt surely 04191 08800 die 04191 08799.
7 And he said 01696 08762 unto them, What manner 04941 of man 0376 [was he] which came up 05927 08804 to meet 07125 08800 you, and told 01696 08762 you these words 01697?
8 And they answered 0559 08799 him, [He was] an hairy 08181 man 01167 0376, and girt 0247 08803 with a girdle 0232 of leather 05785 about his loins 04975. And he said 0559 08799, It [is] Elijah 0452 the Tishbite 08664.
9 Then the king 04428 sent 07971 08799 unto him a captain 08269 of fifty 02572 with his fifty 02572. And he went up 05927 08799 to him: and, behold, he sat 03427 08802 on the top 07218 of an hill 02022. And he spake 01696 08762 unto him, Thou man 0376 of God 0430, the king 04428 hath said 01696 08765, Come down 03381 08798.
10 And Elijah 0452 answered 06030 08799 and said 01696 08762 to the captain 08269 of fifty 02572, If I [be] a man 0376 of God 0430, then let fire 0784 come down 03381 08799 from heaven 08064, and consume 0398 08799 thee and thy fifty 02572. And there came down 03381 08799 fire 0784 from heaven 08064, and consumed 0398 08799 him and his fifty 02572.
11 Again 07725 08799 also he sent 07971 08799 unto him another 0312 captain 08269 of fifty 02572 with his fifty 02572. And he answered 06030 08799 and said 01696 08762 unto him, O man 0376 of God 0430, thus hath the king 04428 said 0559 08804, Come down 03381 08798 quickly 04120.
12 And Elijah 0452 answered 06030 08799 and said 01696 08762 unto them, If I [be] a man 0376 of God 0430, let fire 0784 come down 03381 08799 from heaven 08064, and consume 0398 08799 thee and thy fifty 02572. And the fire 0784 of God 0430 came down 03381 08799 from heaven 08064, and consumed 0398 08799 him and his fifty 02572.
13 And he sent 07971 08799 again 07725 08799 a captain 08269 of the third 07992 fifty 02572 with his fifty 02572. And the third 07992 captain 08269 of fifty 02572 went up 05927 08799, and came 0935 08799 and fell 03766 08799 on his knees 01290 before 05048 Elijah 0452, and besought 02603 08691 him, and said 01696 08762 unto him, O man 0376 of God 0430, I pray thee, let my life 05315, and the life 05315 of these fifty 02572 thy servants 05650, be precious 03365 08799 in thy sight 05869.
14 Behold, there came 03381 00 fire 0784 down 03381 08804 from heaven 08064, and burnt up 0398 08799 the two 08147 captains 08269 of the former 07223 fifties 02572 with their fifties 02572: therefore let my life 05315 now be precious 03365 08799 in thy sight 05869.
15 And the angel 04397 of the LORD 03068 said 01696 08762 unto Elijah 0452, Go down 03381 08798 with him: be not afraid 03372 08799 of him 06440. And he arose 06965 08799, and went down 03381 08799 with him unto the king 04428.
16 And he said 01696 08762 unto him, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, Forasmuch as thou hast sent 07971 08804 messengers 04397 to enquire 01875 08800 of Baalzebub 01176 the god 0430 of Ekron 06138, [is it] not because [there is] no God 0430 in Israel 03478 to enquire 01875 08800 of his word 01697? therefore thou shalt not come down 03381 08799 off that bed 04296 on which thou art gone up 05927 08804, but shalt surely 04191 08800 die 04191 08799.
17 So he died 04191 08799 according to the word 01697 of the LORD 03068 which Elijah 0452 had spoken 01696 08765. And Jehoram 03088 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead in the second 08147 year 08141 of Jehoram 03088 the son 01121 of Jehoshaphat 03092 king 04428 of Judah 03063; because he had no son 01121.
18 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Ahaziah 0274 which he did 06213 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478?
2Ki 2
1 And it came to pass, when the LORD 03068 would take up 05927 08687 Elijah 0452 into heaven 08064 by a whirlwind 05591, that Elijah 0452 went 03212 08799 with Elisha 0477 from Gilgal 01537.
2 And Elijah 0452 said 0559 08799 unto Elisha 0477, Tarry 03427 08798 here, I pray thee; for the LORD 03068 hath sent 07971 08804 me to Bethel 01008. And Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799 [unto him, As] the LORD 03068 liveth 02416, and [as] thy soul 05315 liveth 02416, I will not leave 05800 08799 thee. So they went down 03381 08799 to Bethel 01008.
3 And the sons 01121 of the prophets 05030 that [were] at Bethel 01008 came forth 03318 08799 to Elisha 0477, and said 0559 08799 unto him, Knowest 03045 08804 thou that the LORD 03068 will take away 03947 08802 thy master 0113 from thy head 07218 to day 03117? And he said 0559 08799, Yea, I know 03045 08804 [it]; hold ye your peace 02814 08685.
4 And Elijah 0452 said 0559 08799 unto him, Elisha 0477, tarry 03427 08798 here, I pray thee; for the LORD 03068 hath sent 07971 08804 me to Jericho 03405. And he said 0559 08799, [As] the LORD 03068 liveth 02416, and [as] thy soul 05315 liveth 02416, I will not leave 05800 08799 thee. So they came 0935 08799 to Jericho 03405.
5 And the sons 01121 of the prophets 05030 that [were] at Jericho 03405 came 05066 08799 to Elisha 0477, and said 0559 08799 unto him, Knowest 03045 08804 thou that the LORD 03068 will take away 03947 08802 thy master 0113 from thy head 07218 to day 03117? And he answered 0559 08799, Yea, I know 03045 08804 [it]; hold ye your peace 02814 08685.
6 And Elijah 0452 said 0559 08799 unto him, Tarry 03427 08798, I pray thee, here; for the LORD 03068 hath sent 07971 08804 me to Jordan 03383. And he said 0559 08799, [As] the LORD 03068 liveth 02416, and [as] thy soul 05315 liveth 02416, I will not leave 05800 08799 thee. And they two 08147 went on 03212 08799.
7 And fifty 02572 men 0376 of the sons 01121 of the prophets 05030 went 01980 08804, and stood 05975 08799 to view 05048 afar off 07350: and they two 08147 stood 05975 08804 by Jordan 03383.
8 And Elijah 0452 took 03947 08799 his mantle 0155, and wrapped [it] together 01563 08799, and smote 05221 08686 the waters 04325, and they were divided 02673 08735 hither and thither, so that they two 08147 went over 05674 08799 on dry 02724 ground.
9 And it came to pass, when they were gone over 05674 08800, that Elijah 0452 said 0559 08804 unto Elisha 0477, Ask 07592 08798 what I shall do 06213 08799 for thee, before I be taken away 03947 08735 from thee. And Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799, I pray thee, let a double 08147 portion 06310 of thy spirit 07307 be upon me.
10 And he said 0559 08799, Thou hast asked 07592 08800 a hard thing 07185 08689: [nevertheless], if thou see 07200 08799 me [when I am] taken 03947 08795 from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be [so].
11 And it came to pass, as they still 01980 08800 went on 01980 08802, and talked 01696 08763, that, behold, [there appeared] a chariot 07393 of fire 0784, and horses 05483 of fire 0784, and parted 06504 08686 them both 08147 asunder 0996; and Elijah 0452 went up 05927 08799 by a whirlwind 05591 into heaven 08064.
12 And Elisha 0477 saw 07200 08802 [it], and he cried 06817 08764, My father 01, my father 01, the chariot 07393 of Israel 03478, and the horsemen 06571 thereof. And he saw 07200 08804 him no more: and he took hold 02388 08686 of his own clothes 0899, and rent 07167 08799 them in two 08147 pieces 07168.
13 He took up 07311 08686 also the mantle 0155 of Elijah 0452 that fell 05307 08804 from him, and went back 07725 08799, and stood 05975 08799 by the bank 08193 of Jordan 03383;
14 And he took 03947 08799 the mantle 0155 of Elijah 0452 that fell 05307 08804 from him, and smote 05221 08686 the waters 04325, and said 0559 08799, Where [is] the LORD 03068 God 0430 of Elijah 0452? and when he also had smitten 05221 08686 the waters 04325, they parted 02673 08735 hither and thither: and Elisha 0477 went over 05674 08799.
15 And when the sons 01121 of the prophets 05030 which [were] to view at Jericho 03405 saw 07200 08799 him, they said 0559 08799, The spirit 07307 of Elijah 0452 doth rest 05117 08804 on Elisha 0477. And they came 0935 08799 to meet 07125 08800 him, and bowed 07812 08691 themselves to the ground 0776 before him.
16 And they said 0559 08799 unto him, Behold now, there be 03426 with thy servants 05650 fifty 02572 strong 02428 men 01121 0582; let them go 03212 08799, we pray thee, and seek 01245 08762 thy master 0113: lest peradventure the Spirit 07307 of the LORD 03068 hath taken him up 05375 08804, and cast 07993 08686 him upon some 0259 mountain 02022, or into some 0259 valley 01516. And he said 0559 08799, Ye shall not send 07971 08799.
17 And when they urged 06484 08799 him till he was ashamed 0954 08800, he said 0559 08799, Send 07971 08798. They sent 07971 08799 therefore fifty 02572 men 0376; and they sought 01245 08762 three 07969 days 03117, but found 04672 08804 him not.
18 And when they came again 07725 08799 to him, (for he tarried 03427 08802 at Jericho 03405,) he said 0559 08799 unto them, Did I not say 0559 08804 unto you, Go 03212 08799 not?
19 And the men 0582 of the city 05892 said 0559 08799 unto Elisha 0477, Behold, I pray thee, the situation 04186 of this city 05892 [is] pleasant 02896, as my lord 0113 seeth 07200 08802: but the water 04325 [is] naught 07451, and the ground 0776 barren 07921 08764.
20 And he said 0559 08799, Bring 03947 08798 me a new 02319 cruse 06746, and put 07760 08798 salt 04417 therein. And they brought 03947 08799 [it] to him.
21 And he went forth 03318 08799 unto the spring 04161 of the waters 04325, and cast 07993 08686 the salt 04417 in there, and said 0559 08799, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, I have healed 07495 08765 these waters 04325; there shall not be from thence any more death 04194 or barren 07921 08764 [land].
22 So the waters 04325 were healed 07495 08735 unto this day 03117, according to the saying 01697 of Elisha 0477 which he spake 01696 08765.
23 And he went up 05927 08799 from thence unto Bethel 01008: and as he was going up 05927 08802 by the way 01870, there came forth 03318 08804 little 06996 children 05288 out of the city 05892, and mocked 07046 08691 him, and said 0559 08799 unto him, Go up 05927 08798, thou bald head 07142; go up 05927 08798, thou bald head 07142.
24 And he turned 06437 08799 back 0310, and looked 07200 08799 on them, and cursed 07043 08762 them in the name 08034 of the LORD 03068. And there came forth 03318 08799 two 08147 she bears 01677 out of the wood 03293, and tare 01234 08762 forty 0705 and two 08147 children 03206 of them.
25 And he went 03212 08799 from thence to mount 02022 Carmel 03760, and from thence he returned 07725 08804 to Samaria 08111.
2Ki 3
1 Now Jehoram 03088 the son 01121 of Ahab 0256 began to reign 04427 08804 over Israel 03478 in Samaria 08111 the eighteenth 08083 06240 year 08141 of Jehoshaphat 03092 king 04428 of Judah 03063, and reigned 04427 08799 twelve 08147 06240 years 08141.
2 And he wrought 06213 08799 evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068; but not like his father 01, and like his mother 0517: for he put away 05493 08686 the image 04676 of Baal 01168 that his father 01 had made 06213 08804.
3 Nevertheless he cleaved 01692 08804 unto the sins 02403 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, which made Israel 03478 to sin 02398 08689; he departed 05493 08804 not therefrom.
4 And Mesha 04338 king 04428 of Moab 04124 was a sheepmaster 05349, and rendered 07725 08689 unto the king 04428 of Israel 03478 an hundred 03967 thousand 0505 lambs 03733, and an hundred 03967 thousand 0505 rams 0352, with the wool 06785.
5 But it came to pass, when Ahab 0256 was dead 04194, that the king 04428 of Moab 04124 rebelled 06586 08799 against the king 04428 of Israel 03478.
6 And king 04428 Jehoram 03088 went out 03318 08799 of Samaria 08111 the same time 03117, and numbered 06485 08799 all Israel 03478.
7 And he went 03212 08799 and sent 07971 08799 to Jehoshaphat 03092 the king 04428 of Judah 03063, saying 0559 08800, The king 04428 of Moab 04124 hath rebelled 06586 08804 against me: wilt thou go 03212 08799 with me against Moab 04124 to battle 04421? And he said 0559 08799, I will go up 05927 08799: I [am] as thou [art], my people 05971 as thy people 05971, [and] my horses 05483 as thy horses 05483.
8 And he said 0559 08799, Which way 01870 shall we go up 05927 08799? And he answered 0559 08799, The way 01870 through the wilderness 04057 of Edom 0123.
9 So the king 04428 of Israel 03478 went 03212 08799, and the king 04428 of Judah 03063, and the king 04428 of Edom 0123: and they fetched a compass 05437 08799 of seven 07651 days' 03117 journey 01870: and there was no water 04325 for the host 04264, and for the cattle 0929 that followed 07272 them.
10 And the king 04428 of Israel 03478 said 0559 08799, Alas 0162! that the LORD 03068 hath called 07121 00 these three 07969 kings 04428 together 07121 08804, to deliver 05414 08800 them into the hand 03027 of Moab 04124!
11 But Jehoshaphat 03092 said 0559 08799, [Is there] not here a prophet 05030 of the LORD 03068, that we may enquire 01875 08799 of the LORD 03068 by him? And one 0259 of the king 04428 of Israel's 03478 servants 05650 answered 06030 08799 and said 0559 08799, Here [is] Elisha 0477 the son 01121 of Shaphat 08202, which poured 03332 08804 water 04325 on the hands 03027 of Elijah 0452.
12 And Jehoshaphat 03092 said 0559 08799, The word 01697 of the LORD 03068 is 03426 with him. So the king 04428 of Israel 03478 and Jehoshaphat 03092 and the king 04428 of Edom 0123 went down 03381 08799 to him.
13 And Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799 unto the king 04428 of Israel 03478, What have I to do with thee? get 03212 08798 thee to the prophets 05030 of thy father 01, and to the prophets 05030 of thy mother 0517. And the king 04428 of Israel 03478 said 0559 08799 unto him, Nay: for the LORD 03068 hath called 07121 00 these three 07969 kings 04428 together 07121 08804, to deliver 05414 08800 them into the hand 03027 of Moab 04124.
14 And Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799, [As] the LORD 03068 of hosts 06635 liveth 02416, before 06440 whom I stand 05975 08804, surely, were it not that 03884 I regard 05375 08802 the presence 06440 of Jehoshaphat 03092 the king 04428 of Judah 03063, I would not look 05027 08686 toward thee, nor see 07200 08799 thee.
15 But now bring 03947 08798 me a minstrel 05059 08764. And it came to pass, when the minstrel 05059 08764 played 05059 08763, that the hand 03027 of the LORD 03068 came upon him.
16 And he said 0559 08799, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, Make 06213 08800 this valley 05158 full of ditches 01356.
17 For thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, Ye shall not see 07200 08799 wind 07307, neither shall ye see 07200 08799 rain 01653; yet that valley 05158 shall be filled 04390 08735 with water 04325, that ye may drink 08354 08804, both ye, and your cattle 04735, and your beasts 0929.
18 And this is [but] a light thing 07043 08738 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068: he will deliver 05414 08804 the Moabites 04124 also into your hand 03027.
19 And ye shall smite 05221 08689 every fenced 04013 city 05892, and every choice 04004 city 05892, and shall fell 05307 08686 every good 02896 tree 06086, and stop 05640 08799 all wells 04599 of water 04325, and mar 03510 08686 every good 02896 piece 02513 of land with stones 068.
20 And it came to pass in the morning 01242, when the meat offering 04503 was offered 05927 08800, that, behold, there came 0935 08802 water 04325 by the way 01870 of Edom 0123, and the country 0776 was filled 04390 08735 with water 04325.
21 And when all the Moabites 04124 heard 08085 08804 that the kings 04428 were come up 05927 08804 to fight 03898 08736 against them, they gathered 06817 08735 all that were able to put 02296 08802 on armour 02290, and upward 04605, and stood 05975 08799 in the border 01366.
22 And they rose up early 07925 08686 in the morning 01242, and the sun 08121 shone 02224 08804 upon the water 04325, and the Moabites 04124 saw 07200 08799 the water 04325 on the other side 05048 [as] red 0122 as blood 01818:
23 And they said 0559 08799, This [is] blood 01818: the kings 04428 are surely 02717 08715 slain 02717 08738, and they have smitten 05221 08686 one 0376 another 07453: now therefore, Moab 04124, to the spoil 07998.
24 And when they came 0935 08799 to the camp 04264 of Israel 03478, the Israelites 03478 rose up 06965 08799 and smote 05221 08686 the Moabites 04124, so that they fled 05127 08799 before 06440 them: but they went forward 05221 08686 smiting 05221 08687 the Moabites 04124, even in [their] country.
25 And they beat down 02040 08799 the cities 05892, and on every good 02896 piece 02513 of land cast 07993 08686 every man 0376 his stone 068, and filled 04390 08765 it; and they stopped 05640 08799 all the wells 04599 of water 04325, and felled 05307 08686 all the good 02896 trees 06086: only in Kirharaseth 07025 left 07604 08689 they the stones 068 thereof; howbeit the slingers 07051 went about 05437 08799 [it], and smote 05221 08686 it.
26 And when the king 04428 of Moab 04124 saw 07200 08799 that the battle 04421 was too sore 02388 08804 for him, he took 03947 08799 with him seven 07651 hundred 03967 men 0376 that drew 08025 08802 swords 02719, to break through 01234 08687 [even] unto the king 04428 of Edom 0123: but they could 03201 08804 not.
27 Then he took 03947 08799 his eldest 01060 son 01121 that should have reigned 04427 08799 in his stead, and offered 05927 08686 him [for] a burnt offering 05930 upon the wall 02346. And there was great 01419 indignation 07110 against Israel 03478: and they departed 05265 08799 from him, and returned 07725 08799 to [their own] land 0776.
2Ki 4
1 Now there cried 06817 08804 a certain 0259 woman 0802 of the wives 0802 of the sons 01121 of the prophets 05030 unto Elisha 0477, saying 0559 08800, Thy servant 05650 my husband 0376 is dead 04191 08804; and thou knowest 03045 08804 that thy servant 05650 did fear 03373 the LORD 03068: and the creditor 05383 08802 is come 0935 08804 to take 03947 08800 unto him my two 08147 sons 03206 to be bondmen 05650.
2 And Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799 unto her, What shall I do 06213 08799 for thee? tell 05046 08685 me, what hast 03426 thou in the house 01004? And she said 0559 08799, Thine handmaid 08198 hath not any thing in the house 01004, save a pot 0610 of oil 08081.
3 Then he said 0559 08799, Go 03212 08798, borrow 07592 08798 thee vessels 03627 abroad 02351 of all thy neighbours 07934, [even] empty 07386 vessels 03627; borrow not a few 04591 08686.
4 And when thou art come in 0935 08804, thou shalt shut 05462 08804 the door 01817 upon thee and upon thy sons 01121, and shalt pour out 03332 08804 into all those vessels 03627, and thou shalt set aside 05265 08686 that which is full 04392.
5 So she went 03212 08799 from him, and shut 05462 08799 the door 01817 upon her and upon 01157 her sons 01121, who 01992 brought 05066 08688 [the vessels] to her; and she poured out 03332 08716.
6 And it came to pass, when the vessels 03627 were full 04390 08800, that she said 0559 08799 unto her son 01121, Bring 05066 08685 me yet a vessel 03627. And he said 0559 08799 unto her, [There is] not a vessel 03627 more. And the oil 08081 stayed 05975 08799.
7 Then she came 0935 08799 and told 05046 08686 the man 0376 of God 0430. And he said 0559 08799, Go 03212 08798, sell 04376 08798 the oil 08081, and pay 07999 08761 thy debt 05386, and live 02421 08799 thou and thy children 01121 of the rest 03498 08737.
8 And it fell on a day 03117, that Elisha 0477 passed 05674 08799 to Shunem 07766, where [was] a great 01419 woman 0802; and she constrained 02388 08686 him to eat 0398 08800 bread 03899. And [so] it was, [that] as oft 01767 as he passed by 05674 08800, he turned 05493 08799 in thither to eat 0398 08800 bread 03899.
9 And she said 0559 08799 unto her husband 0376, Behold now, I perceive 03045 08804 that this [is] an holy 06918 man 0376 of God 0430, which passeth 05674 08802 by us continually 08548.
10 Let us make 06213 08799 a little 06996 chamber 05944, I pray thee, on the wall 07023; and let us set 07760 08799 for him there a bed 04296, and a table 07979, and a stool 03678, and a candlestick 04501: and it shall be, when he cometh 0935 08800 to us, that he shall turn 05493 08799 in thither.
11 And it fell on a day 03117, that he came 0935 08799 thither, and he turned 05493 08799 into the chamber 05944, and lay 07901 08799 there.
12 And he said 0559 08799 to Gehazi 01522 his servant 05288, Call 07121 08798 this Shunammite 07767. And when he had called 07121 08799 her, she stood 05975 08799 before 06440 him.
13 And he said 0559 08799 unto him, Say 0559 08798 now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful 02729 08804 for us with all this care 02731; what [is] to be done 06213 08800 for thee? wouldest 03426 thou be spoken 01696 08763 for to the king 04428, or to the captain 08269 of the host 06635? And she answered 0559 08799, I dwell 03427 08802 among 08432 mine own people 05971.
14 And he said 0559 08799, What then [is] to be done 06213 08800 for her? And Gehazi 01522 answered 0559 08799, Verily 061 she hath no child 01121, and her husband 0376 is old 02204 08804.
15 And he said 0559 08799, Call 07121 08798 her. And when he had called 07121 08799 her, she stood 05975 08799 in the door 06607.
16 And he said 0559 08799, About this season 04150, according to the time 06256 of life 02416, thou shalt embrace 02263 08802 a son 01121. And she said 0559 08799, Nay, my lord 0113, [thou] man 0376 of God 0430, do not lie 03576 08762 unto thine handmaid 08198.
17 And the woman 0802 conceived 02029 08799, and bare 03205 08799 a son 01121 at that season 04150 that Elisha 0477 had said 01696 08765 unto her, according to the time 06256 of life 02416.
18 And when the child 03206 was grown 01431 08799, it fell on a day 03117, that he went out 03318 08799 to his father 01 to the reapers 07114 08802.
19 And he said 0559 08799 unto his father 01, My head 07218, my head 07218. And he said 0559 08799 to a lad 05288, Carry 05375 08798 him to his mother 0517.
20 And when he had taken 05375 08799 him, and brought 0935 08686 him to his mother 0517, he sat 03427 08799 on her knees 01290 till noon 06672, and [then] died 04191 08799.
21 And she went up 05927 08799, and laid 07901 08686 him on the bed 04296 of the man 0376 of God 0430, and shut 05462 08799 [the door] upon him, and went out 03318 08799.
22 And she called 07121 08799 unto her husband 0376, and said 0559 08799, Send 07971 08798 me, I pray thee, one 0259 of the young men 05288, and one 0259 of the asses 0860, that I may run 07323 08799 to the man 0376 of God 0430, and come again 07725 08799.
23 And he said 0559 08799, Wherefore wilt thou go 01980 08802 to him to day 03117? [it is] neither new moon 02320, nor sabbath 07676. And she said 0559 08799, [It shall be] well 07965.
24 Then she saddled 02280 08799 an ass 0860, and said 0559 08799 to her servant 05288, Drive 05090 08798, and go forward 03212 08798; slack 06113 08799 not [thy] riding 07392 08800 for me, except I bid 0559 08804 thee.
25 So she went 03212 08799 and came 0935 08799 unto the man 0376 of God 0430 to mount 02022 Carmel 03760. And it came to pass, when the man 0376 of God 0430 saw her afar off 07200 08800, that he said 0559 08799 to Gehazi 01522 his servant 05288, Behold, [yonder is] that 01975 Shunammite 07767:
26 Run 07323 08798 now, I pray thee, to meet 07125 08800 her, and say 0559 08798 unto her, [Is it] well 07965 with thee? [is it] well 07965 with thy husband 0376? [is it] well 07965 with the child 03206? And she answered 0559 08799, [It is] well 07965.
27 And when she came 0935 08799 to the man 0376 of God 0430 to the hill 02022, she caught 02388 08686 him by the feet 07272: but Gehazi 01522 came near 05066 08799 to thrust her away 01920 08800. And the man 0376 of God 0430 said 0559 08799, Let her alone 07503 08685; for her soul 05315 [is] vexed 04843 08804 within her: and the LORD 03068 hath hid 05956 08689 [it] from me, and hath not told 05046 08689 me.
28 Then she said 0559 08799, Did I desire 07592 08804 a son 01121 of my lord 0113? did I not say 0559 08804, Do not deceive 07952 08686 me?
29 Then he said 0559 08799 to Gehazi 01522, Gird up 02296 08798 thy loins 04975, and take 03947 08798 my staff 04938 in thine hand 03027, and go thy way 03212 08798: if thou meet 04672 08799 any man 0376, salute 01288 08762 him not; and if any 0376 salute 01288 08762 thee, answer him not again 06030 08799: and lay 07760 08804 my staff 04938 upon the face 06440 of the child 05288.
30 And the mother 0517 of the child 05288 said 0559 08799, [As] the LORD 03068 liveth 02416, and [as] thy soul 05315 liveth 02416, I will not leave 05800 08799 thee. And he arose 06965 08799, and followed 03212 08799 0310 her.
31 And Gehazi 01522 passed on 05674 08804 before 06440 them, and laid 07760 08799 the staff 04938 upon the face 06440 of the child 05288; but [there was] neither voice 06963, nor hearing 07182. Wherefore he went again 07725 08799 to meet 07125 08800 him, and told 05046 08686 him, saying 0559 08800, The child 05288 is not awaked 06974 08689.
32 And when Elisha 0477 was come 0935 08799 into the house 01004, behold, the child 05288 was dead 04191 08801, [and] laid 07901 08716 upon his bed 04296.
33 He went in 0935 08799 therefore, and shut 05462 08799 the door 01817 upon them twain 08147, and prayed 06419 08691 unto the LORD 03068.
34 And he went up 05927 08799, and lay 07901 08799 upon the child 03206, and put 07760 08799 his mouth 06310 upon his mouth 06310, and his eyes 05869 upon his eyes 05869, and his hands 03709 upon his hands 03709: and he stretched 01457 08799 himself upon the child; and the flesh 01320 of the child 03206 waxed warm 02552 08799.
35 Then he returned 07725 08799, and walked 03212 08799 in the house 01004 to 0259 02008 and fro 0259 02008; and went up 05927 08799, and stretched 01457 08799 himself upon him: and the child 05288 sneezed 02237 08779 seven 07651 times 06471, and the child 05288 opened 06491 08799 his eyes 05869.
36 And he called 07121 08799 Gehazi 01522, and said 0559 08799, Call 07121 08798 this Shunammite 07767. So he called 07121 08799 her. And when she was come in 0935 08799 unto him, he said 0559 08799, Take up 05375 08798 thy son 01121.
37 Then she went in 0935 08799, and fell 05307 08799 at his feet 07272, and bowed 07812 08691 herself to the ground 0776, and took up 05375 08799 her son 01121, and went out 03318 08799.
38 And Elisha 0477 came again 07725 08804 to Gilgal 01537: and [there was] a dearth 07458 in the land 0776; and the sons 01121 of the prophets 05030 [were] sitting 03427 08802 before 06440 him: and he said 0559 08799 unto his servant 05288, Set 08239 08798 on the great 01419 pot 05518, and seethe 01310 08761 pottage 05138 for the sons 01121 of the prophets 05030.
39 And one 0259 went out 03318 08799 into the field 07704 to gather 03950 08763 herbs 0219, and found 04672 08799 a wild 07704 vine 01612, and gathered 03950 08762 thereof wild 07704 gourds 06498 his lap 0899 full 04393, and came 0935 08799 and shred 06398 08762 [them] into the pot 05518 of pottage 05138: for they knew 03045 08804 [them] not.
40 So they poured out 03332 08799 for the men 0582 to eat 0398 08800. And it came to pass, as they were eating 0398 08800 of the pottage 05138, that they cried out 06817 08804, and said 0559 08799, O [thou] man 0376 of God 0430, [there is] death 04194 in the pot 05518. And they could 03201 08804 not eat 0398 08800 [thereof].
41 But he said 0559 08799, Then bring 03947 08798 meal 07058. And he cast 07993 08686 [it] into the pot 05518; and he said 0559 08799, Pour out 03332 08798 for the people 05971, that they may eat 0398 08799. And there was no harm 01697 07451 in the pot 05518.
42 And there came 0935 08802 a man 0376 from Baalshalisha 01190, and brought 0935 08686 the man 0376 of God 0430 bread 03899 of the firstfruits 01061, twenty 06242 loaves 03899 of barley 08184, and full ears of corn 03759 in the husk 06861 thereof. And he said 0559 08799, Give 05414 08798 unto the people 05971, that they may eat 0398 08799.
43 And his servitor 08334 08764 said 0559 08799, What, should I set 05414 08799 this before 06440 an hundred 03967 men 0376? He said again 0559 08799, Give 05414 08798 the people 05971, that they may eat 0398 08799: for thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, They shall eat 0398 08800, and shall leave 03498 08687 [thereof].
44 So he set 05414 08799 [it] before 06440 them, and they did eat 0398 08799, and left 03498 08686 [thereof], according to the word 01697 of the LORD 03068.
2Ki 5
1 Now Naaman 05283, captain 08269 of the host 06635 of the king 04428 of Syria 0758, was a great 01419 man 0376 with 06440 his master 0113, and honourable 05375 08803, because by him the LORD 03068 had given 05414 08804 deliverance 08668 unto Syria 0758: he was also a mighty 01368 man 0376 in valour 02428, [but he was] a leper 06879 08794.
2 And the Syrians 0758 had gone out 03318 08804 by companies 01416, and had brought away captive 07617 08799 out of the land 0776 of Israel 03478 a little 06996 maid 05291; and she waited on 06440 Naaman's 05283 wife 0802.
3 And she said 0559 08799 unto her mistress 01404, Would 0305 God my lord 0113 [were] with 06440 the prophet 05030 that [is] in Samaria 08111! for 0227 he would recover 0622 08799 him of his leprosy 06883.
4 And [one] went in 0935 08799, and told 05046 08686 his lord 0113, saying 0559 08800, Thus and thus said 01696 08765 the maid 05291 that [is] of the land 0776 of Israel 03478.
5 And the king 04428 of Syria 0758 said 0559 08799, Go to 03212 08798, go 0935 08798, and I will send 07971 08799 a letter 05612 unto the king 04428 of Israel 03478. And he departed 03212 08799, and took 03947 08799 with him 03027 ten 06235 talents 03603 of silver 03701, and six 08337 thousand 0505 [pieces] of gold 02091, and ten 06235 changes 02487 of raiment 0899.
6 And he brought 0935 08686 the letter 05612 to the king 04428 of Israel 03478, saying 0559 08800, Now when this letter 05612 is come 0935 08800 unto thee, behold, I have [therewith] sent 07971 08804 Naaman 05283 my servant 05650 to thee, that thou mayest recover 0622 08804 him of his leprosy 06883.
7 And it came to pass, when the king 04428 of Israel 03478 had read 07121 08800 the letter 05612, that he rent 07167 08799 his clothes 0899, and said 0559 08799, [Am] I God 0430, to kill 04191 08687 and to make alive 02421 08687, that this man 02088 doth send 07971 08802 unto me to recover 0622 08800 a man 0376 of his leprosy 06883? wherefore 0389 consider 03045 08798, I pray you, and see 07200 08798 how he seeketh a quarrel 0579 08693 against me.
8 And it was [so], when Elisha 0477 the man 0376 of God 0430 had heard 08085 08800 that the king 04428 of Israel 03478 had rent 07167 08804 his clothes 0899, that he sent 07971 08799 to the king 04428, saying 0559 08800, Wherefore hast thou rent 07167 08804 thy clothes 0899? let him come 0935 08799 now to me, and he shall know 03045 08799 that there is 03426 a prophet 05030 in Israel 03478.
9 So Naaman 05283 came 0935 08799 with his horses 05483 and with his chariot 07393, and stood 05975 08799 at the door 06607 of the house 01004 of Elisha 0477.
10 And Elisha 0477 sent 07971 08799 a messenger 04397 unto him, saying 0559 08800, Go 01980 08800 and wash 07364 08804 in Jordan 03383 seven 07651 times 06471, and thy flesh 01320 shall come again 07725 08799 to thee, and thou shalt be clean 02891 08798.
11 But Naaman 05283 was wroth 07107 08799, and went away 03212 08799, and said 0559 08799, Behold, I thought 0559 08804, He will surely 03318 08800 come out 03318 08799 to me, and stand 05975 08804, and call 07121 08804 on the name 08034 of the LORD 03068 his God 0430, and strike 05130 08689 his hand 03027 over the place 04725, and recover 0622 08804 the leper 06879 08794.
12 [Are] not Abana 071 08676 0549 and Pharpar 06554, rivers 05104 of Damascus 01834, better 02896 than all the waters 04325 of Israel 03478? may I not wash 07364 08799 in them, and be clean 02891 08804? So he turned 06437 08799 and went away 03212 08799 in a rage 02534.
13 And his servants 05650 came near 05066 08799, and spake 01696 08762 unto him, and said 0559 08799, My father 01, [if] the prophet 05030 had bid 01696 08765 thee [do some] great 01419 thing 01697, wouldest thou not have done 06213 08799 [it]? how much rather then 0637, when he saith 0559 08804 to thee, Wash 07364 08798, and be clean 02891 08798?
14 Then went he down 03381 08799, and dipped 02881 08799 himself seven 07651 times 06471 in Jordan 03383, according to the saying 01697 of the man 0376 of God 0430: and his flesh 01320 came again 07725 08799 like unto the flesh 01320 of a little 06996 child 05288, and he was clean 02891 08799.
15 And he returned 07725 08799 to the man 0376 of God 0430, he and all his company 04264, and came 0935 08799, and stood 05975 08799 before 06440 him: and he said 0559 08799, Behold, now I know 03045 08804 that [there is] no God 0430 in all the earth 0776, but in Israel 03478: now therefore, I pray thee, take 03947 08798 a blessing 01293 of thy servant 05650.
16 But he said 0559 08799, [As] the LORD 03068 liveth 02416, before 06440 whom I stand 05975 08804, I will receive 03947 08799 none. And he urged 06484 08799 him to take 03947 08800 [it]; but he refused 03985 08762.
17 And Naaman 05283 said 0559 08799, Shall there not then, I pray thee, be given 05414 08714 to thy servant 05650 two 06776 mules' 06505 burden 04853 of earth 0127? for thy servant 05650 will henceforth offer 06213 08799 neither burnt offering 05930 nor sacrifice 02077 unto other 0312 gods 0430, but unto the LORD 03068.
18 In this thing 01697 the LORD 03068 pardon 05545 08799 thy servant 05650, [that] when my master 0113 goeth 0935 08800 into the house 01004 of Rimmon 07417 to worship 07812 08692 there, and he leaneth 08172 08737 on my hand 03027, and I bow 07812 08694 myself in the house 01004 of Rimmon 07417: when I bow down 07812 08692 myself in the house 01004 of Rimmon 07417, the LORD 03068 pardon 05545 08799 thy servant 05650 in this thing 01697.
19 And he said 0559 08799 unto him, Go 03212 08798 in peace 07965. So he departed 03212 08799 from him a little 03530 way 0776.
20 But Gehazi 01522, the servant 05288 of Elisha 0477 the man 0376 of God 0430, said 0559 08799, Behold, my master 0113 hath spared 02820 08804 Naaman 05283 this Syrian 0761, in not receiving 03947 08800 at his hands 03027 that which he brought 0935 08689: but, [as] the LORD 03068 liveth 02416, I will run 07323 08804 after 0310 him, and take 03947 08804 somewhat 03972 of him.
21 So Gehazi 01522 followed 07291 08799 after 0310 Naaman 05283. And when Naaman 05283 saw 07200 08799 [him] running 07323 08801 after 0310 him, he lighted down 05307 08799 from the chariot 04818 to meet 07125 08800 him, and said 0559 08799, [Is] all well 07965?
22 And he said 0559 08799, All [is] well 07965. My master 0113 hath sent 07971 08804 me, saying 0559 08800, Behold, even now there be come 0935 08804 to me from mount 02022 Ephraim 0669 two 08147 young men 05288 of the sons 01121 of the prophets 05030: give 05414 08798 them, I pray thee, a talent 03603 of silver 03701, and two 08147 changes 02487 of garments 0899.
23 And Naaman 05283 said 0559 08799, Be content 02974 08685, take 03947 08798 two talents 03603. And he urged 06555 08799 him, and bound 06696 08799 two 08147 talents 03603 of silver 03701 in two 08147 bags 02754, with two 08147 changes 02487 of garments 0899, and laid 05414 08799 [them] upon two 08147 of his servants 05288; and they bare 05375 08799 [them] before 06440 him.
24 And when he came 0935 08799 to the tower 06076, he took 03947 08799 [them] from their hand 03027, and bestowed 06485 08799 [them] in the house 01004: and he let the men 0582 go 07971 08762, and they departed 03212 08799.
25 But he went in 0935 08802, and stood 05975 08799 before his master 0113. And Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799 unto him, Whence 0370 [comest thou], Gehazi 01522? And he said 0559 08799, Thy servant 05650 went 01980 08804 no whither 0575.
26 And he said 0559 08799 unto him, Went 01980 08804 not mine heart 03820 [with thee], when the man 0376 turned 02015 08804 again from his chariot 04818 to meet 07125 08800 thee? [Is it] a time 06256 to receive 03947 08800 money 03701, and to receive 03947 08800 garments 0899, and oliveyards 02132, and vineyards 03754, and sheep 06629, and oxen 01241, and menservants 05650, and maidservants 08198?
27 The leprosy 06883 therefore of Naaman 05283 shall cleave 01692 08799 unto thee, and unto thy seed 02233 for ever 05769. And he went out 03318 08799 from his presence 06440 a leper 06879 08794 [as white] as snow 07950.
2Ki 6
1 And the sons 01121 of the prophets 05030 said 0559 08799 unto 06440 Elisha 0477, Behold now, the place 04725 where we dwell 03427 08802 with thee is too strait 06862 for us.
2 Let us go 03212 08799, we pray thee, unto Jordan 03383, and take 03947 08799 thence every man 0376 a 0259 beam 06982, and let us make 06213 08799 us a place 04725 there, where we may dwell 03427 08800. And he answered 0559 08799, Go 03212 08798 ye.
3 And one 0259 said 0559 08799, Be content 02974 08685, I pray thee, and go 03212 08798 with thy servants 05650. And he answered 0559 08799, I will go 03212 08799.
4 So he went 03212 08799 with them. And when they came 0935 08799 to Jordan 03383, they cut down 01504 08799 wood 06086.
5 But as one 0259 was felling 05307 08688 a beam 06982, the axe head 01270 fell 05307 08804 into the water 04325: and he cried 06817 08799, and said 0559 08799, Alas 0162, master 0113! for it was borrowed 07592 08803.
6 And the man 0376 of God 0430 said 0559 08799, Where 0575 fell 05307 08804 it? And he shewed 07200 08686 him the place 04725. And he cut down 07094 08799 a stick 06086, and cast 07993 08686 [it] in thither; and the iron 01270 did swim 06687 08686.
7 Therefore said 0559 08799 he, Take [it] up 07311 08685 to thee. And he put out 07971 08799 his hand 03027, and took 03947 08799 it.
8 Then the king 04428 of Syria 0758 warred 03898 08737 against Israel 03478, and took counsel 03289 08735 with his servants 05650, saying 0559 08800, In such 06423 and such 0492 a place 04725 [shall be] my camp 08466.
9 And the man 0376 of God 0430 sent 07971 08799 unto the king 04428 of Israel 03478, saying 0559 08800, Beware 08104 08734 that thou pass 05674 08800 not such 02088 a place 04725; for thither the Syrians 0758 are come down 05185.
10 And the king 04428 of Israel 03478 sent 07971 08799 to the place 04725 which the man 0376 of God 0430 told 0559 08804 him and warned 02094 08689 him of, and saved 08104 08738 himself there, not once 0259 nor twice 08147.
11 Therefore the heart 03820 of the king 04428 of Syria 0758 was sore troubled 05590 08735 for this thing 01697; and he called 07121 08799 his servants 05650, and said 0559 08799 unto them, Will ye not shew 05046 08686 me which of us [is] for the king 04428 of Israel 03478?
12 And one 0259 of his servants 05650 said 0559 08799, None, my lord 0113, O king 04428: but Elisha 0477, the prophet 05030 that [is] in Israel 03478, telleth 05046 08686 the king 04428 of Israel 03478 the words 01697 that thou speakest 01696 08762 in thy bedchamber 02315 04904.
13 And he said 0559 08799, Go 03212 08798 and spy 07200 08798 where 0351 he [is], that I may send 07971 08799 and fetch 03947 08799 him. And it was told 05046 08714 him, saying 0559 08800, Behold, [he is] in Dothan 01886.
14 Therefore sent 07971 08799 he thither horses 05483, and chariots 07393, and a great 03515 host 02428: and they came 0935 08799 by night 03915, and compassed 05362 00 the city 05892 about 05362 08686.
15 And when the servant 08334 08764 of the man 0376 of God 0430 was risen 06965 08800 early 07925 08686, and gone forth 03318 08799, behold, an host 02428 compassed 05437 08802 the city 05892 both with horses 05483 and chariots 07393. And his servant 05288 said 0559 08799 unto him, Alas 0162, my master 0113! how shall we do 06213 08799?
16 And he answered 0559 08799, Fear 03372 08799 not: for they that [be] with us [are] more 07227 than they that [be] with them.
17 And Elisha 0477 prayed 06419 08691, and said 0559 08799, LORD 03068, I pray thee, open 06491 08798 his eyes 05869, that he may see 07200 08799. And the LORD 03068 opened 06491 08799 the eyes 05869 of the young man 05288; and he saw 07200 08799: and, behold, the mountain 02022 [was] full 04390 08804 of horses 05483 and chariots 07393 of fire 0784 round about 05439 Elisha 0477.
18 And when they came down 03381 08799 to him, Elisha 0477 prayed 06419 08691 unto the LORD 03068, and said 0559 08799, Smite 05221 08685 this people 01471, I pray thee, with blindness 05575. And he smote 05221 08686 them with blindness 05575 according to the word 01697 of Elisha 0477.
19 And Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799 unto them, This [is] not the way 01870, neither [is] this 02090 the city 05892: follow 03212 08798 0310 me, and I will bring 03212 08686 you to the man 0376 whom ye seek 01245 08762. But he led 03212 08686 them to Samaria 08111.
20 And it came to pass, when they were come 0935 08800 into Samaria 08111, that Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799, LORD 03068, open 06491 08798 the eyes 05869 of these [men], that they may see 07200 08799. And the LORD 03068 opened 06491 08799 their eyes 05869, and they saw 07200 08799; and, behold, [they were] in the midst 08432 of Samaria 08111.
21 And the king 04428 of Israel 03478 said 0559 08799 unto Elisha 0477, when he saw 07200 08800 them, My father 01, shall I smite 05221 08686 [them]? shall I smite 05221 08686 [them]?
22 And he answered 0559 08799, Thou shalt not smite 05221 08686 [them]: wouldest thou smite 05221 08688 those whom thou hast taken captive 07617 08804 with thy sword 02719 and with thy bow 07198? set 07760 08798 bread 03899 and water 04325 before 06440 them, that they may eat 0398 08799 and drink 08354 08799, and go 03212 08799 to their master 0113.
23 And he prepared 03739 08799 great 01419 provision 03740 for them: and when they had eaten 0398 08799 and drunk 08354 08799, he sent them away 07971 08762, and they went 03212 08799 to their master 0113. So the bands 01416 of Syria 0758 came 0935 08800 no more 03254 08804 into the land 0776 of Israel 03478.
24 And it came to pass after this 0310, that Benhadad 01130 king 04428 of Syria 0758 gathered 06908 08799 all his host 04264, and went up 05927 08799, and besieged 06696 08799 Samaria 08111.
25 And there was a great 01419 famine 07458 in Samaria 08111: and, behold, they besieged 06696 08802 it, until an ass's 02543 head 07218 was [sold] for fourscore 08084 [pieces] of silver 03701, and the fourth part 07255 of a cab 06894 of dove's dung 01686 08675 03123 02755 for five 02568 [pieces] of silver 03701.
26 And as the king 04428 of Israel 03478 was passing by 05674 08802 upon the wall 02346, there cried 06817 08804 a woman 0802 unto him, saying 0559 08800, Help 03467 08685, my lord 0113, O king 04428.
27 And he said 0559 08799, If the LORD 03068 do not help 03467 08686 thee, whence 0370 shall I help 03467 08686 thee? out of the barnfloor 01637, or out of the winepress 03342?
28 And the king 04428 said 0559 08799 unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered 0559 08799, This woman 0802 said 0559 08804 unto me, Give 05414 08798 thy son 01121, that we may eat 0398 08799 him to day 03117, and we will eat 0398 08799 my son 01121 to morrow 04279.
29 So we boiled 01310 08762 my son 01121, and did eat 0398 08799 him: and I said 0559 08799 unto her on the next 0312 day 03117, Give 05414 08798 thy son 01121, that we may eat 0398 08799 him: and she hath hid 02244 08686 her son 01121.
30 And it came to pass, when the king 04428 heard 08085 08800 the words 01697 of the woman 0802, that he rent 07167 08799 his clothes 0899; and he passed by 05674 08802 upon the wall 02346, and the people 05971 looked 07200 08799, and, behold, [he had] sackcloth 08242 within 01004 upon his flesh 01320.
31 Then he said 0559 08799, God 0430 do 06213 08799 so and more 03254 08686 also to me, if the head 07218 of Elisha 0477 the son 01121 of Shaphat 08202 shall stand 05975 08799 on him this day 03117.
32 But Elisha 0477 sat 03427 08802 in his house 01004, and the elders 02205 sat 03427 08802 with him; and [the king] sent 07971 08799 a man 0376 from before 06440 him: but ere the messenger 04397 came 0935 08799 to him, he said 0559 08804 to the elders 02205, See 07200 08804 ye how this son 01121 of a murderer 07523 08764 hath sent 07971 08804 to take away 05493 08687 mine head 07218? look 07200 08798, when the messenger 04397 cometh 0935 08800, shut 05462 08798 the door 01817, and hold him fast 03905 08804 at the door 01817: [is] not the sound 06963 of his master's 0113 feet 07272 behind 0310 him?
33 And while he yet talked 01696 08764 with them, behold, the messenger 04397 came down 03381 08802 unto him: and he said 0559 08799, Behold, this evil 07451 [is] of the LORD 03068; what should I wait 03176 08686 for the LORD 03068 any longer?
2Ki 7
1 Then Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799, Hear 08085 08798 ye the word 01697 of the LORD 03068; Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, To morrow 04279 about this time 06256 [shall] a measure 05429 of fine flour 05560 [be sold] for a shekel 08255, and two measures 05429 of barley 08184 for a shekel 08255, in the gate 08179 of Samaria 08111.
2 Then a lord 07991 on whose hand 03027 the king 04428 leaned 08172 08737 answered 06030 08799 the man 0376 of God 0430, and said 0559 08799, Behold, [if] the LORD 03068 would make 06213 08802 windows 0699 in heaven 08064, might this thing 01697 be? And he said 0559 08799, Behold, thou shalt see 07200 08802 [it] with thine eyes 05869, but shalt not eat 0398 08799 thereof.
3 And there were four 0702 leprous 06879 08794 men 0582 at the entering in 06607 of the gate 08179: and they said 0559 08799 one 0376 to another 07453, Why sit 03427 08802 we here until we die 04191 08804?
4 If we say 0559 08804, We will enter 0935 08799 into the city 05892, then the famine 07458 [is] in the city 05892, and we shall die 04191 08804 there: and if we sit still 03427 08804 here, we die 04191 08804 also. Now therefore come 03212 08798, and let us fall 05307 08799 unto the host 04264 of the Syrians 0758: if they save us alive 02421 08762, we shall live 02421 08799; and if they kill 04191 08686 us, we shall but die 04191 08804.
5 And they rose up 06965 08799 in the twilight 05399, to go 0935 08800 unto the camp 04264 of the Syrians 0758: and when they were come 0935 08799 to the uttermost part 07097 of the camp 04264 of Syria 0758, behold, [there was] no man 0376 there.
6 For the Lord 0136 had made the host 04264 of the Syrians 0758 to hear 08085 08689 a noise 06963 of chariots 07393, and a noise 06963 of horses 05483, [even] the noise 06963 of a great 01419 host 02428: and they said 0559 08799 one 0376 to another 0251, Lo, the king 04428 of Israel 03478 hath hired 07936 08804 against us the kings 04428 of the Hittites 02850, and the kings 04428 of the Egyptians 04714, to come 0935 08800 upon us.
7 Wherefore they arose 06965 08799 and fled 05127 08799 in the twilight 05399, and left 05800 08799 their tents 0168, and their horses 05483, and their asses 02543, even the camp 04264 as it [was], and fled 05127 08799 for their life 05315.
8 And when these lepers 06879 08794 came 0935 08799 to the uttermost part 07097 of the camp 04264, they went 0935 08799 into one 0259 tent 0168, and did eat 0398 08799 and drink 08354 08799, and carried 05375 08799 thence silver 03701, and gold 02091, and raiment 0899, and went 03212 08799 and hid 02934 08686 [it]; and came again 07725 08799, and entered 0935 08799 into another 0312 tent 0168, and carried 05375 08799 thence [also], and went 03212 08799 and hid 02934 08686 [it].
9 Then they said 0559 08799 one 0376 to another 07453, We do 06213 08802 not well: this day 03117 [is] a day 03117 of good tidings 01309, and we hold our peace 02814 08688: if we tarry 02442 08765 till the morning 01242 light 0216, some mischief 05771 will come 04672 08804 upon us: now therefore come 03212 08798, that we may go 0935 08799 and tell 05046 08686 the king's 04428 household 01004.
10 So they came 0935 08799 and called 07121 08799 unto the porter 07778 of the city 05892: and they told 05046 08686 them, saying 0559 08800, We came 0935 08804 to the camp 04264 of the Syrians 0758, and, behold, [there was] no man 0376 there, neither voice 06963 of man 0120, but horses 05483 tied 0631 08803, and asses 02543 tied 0631 08803, and the tents 0168 as they [were].
11 And he called 07121 08799 the porters 07778; and they told 05046 08686 [it] to the king's 04428 house 01004 within 06441.
12 And the king 04428 arose 06965 08799 in the night 03915, and said 0559 08799 unto his servants 05650, I will now shew 05046 08686 you what the Syrians 0758 have done 06213 08804 to us. They know 03045 08804 that we [be] hungry 07457; therefore are they gone out 03318 08799 of the camp 04264 to hide 02247 08736 themselves in the field 07704, saying 0559 08800, When they come out 03318 08799 of the city 05892, we shall catch 08610 08799 them alive 02416, and get 0935 08799 into the city 05892.
13 And one 0259 of his servants 05650 answered 06030 08799 and said 0559 08799, Let [some] take 03947 08799, I pray thee, five 02568 of the horses 05483 that remain 07604 08737, which are left 07604 08738 in the city, (behold, they [are] as all the multitude 01995 of Israel 03478 that are left 07604 08738 in it: behold, [I say], they [are] even as all the multitude 01995 of the Israelites 03478 that are consumed 08552 08804:) and let us send 07971 08799 and see 07200 08799.
14 They took 03947 08799 therefore two 08147 chariot 07393 horses 05483; and the king 04428 sent 07971 08799 after 0310 the host 04264 of the Syrians 0758, saying 0559 08800, Go 03212 08798 and see 07200 08798.
15 And they went 03212 08799 after 0310 them unto Jordan 03383: and, lo, all the way 01870 [was] full 04392 of garments 0899 and vessels 03627, which the Syrians 0758 had cast away 07993 08689 in their haste 02648 08800. And the messengers 04397 returned 07725 08799, and told 05046 08686 the king 04428.
16 And the people 05971 went out 03318 08799, and spoiled 0962 08799 the tents 04264 of the Syrians 0758. So a measure 05429 of fine flour 05560 was [sold] for a shekel 08255, and two measures 05429 of barley 08184 for a shekel 08255, according to the word 01697 of the LORD 03068.
17 And the king 04428 appointed 06485 08689 the lord 07991 on whose hand 03027 he leaned 08172 08737 to have the charge of the gate 08179: and the people 05971 trode 07429 08799 upon him in the gate 08179, and he died 04191 08799, as the man 0376 of God 0430 had said 01696 08765, who spake 01696 08765 when the king 04428 came down 03381 08800 to him.
18 And it came to pass as the man 0376 of God 0430 had spoken 01696 08763 to the king 04428, saying 0559 08800, Two measures 05429 of barley 08184 for a shekel 08255, and a measure 05429 of fine flour 05560 for a shekel 08255, shall be to morrow 04279 about this time 06256 in the gate 08179 of Samaria 08111:
19 And that lord 07991 answered 06030 08799 the man 0376 of God 0430, and said 0559 08799, Now, behold, [if] the LORD 03068 should make 06213 08802 windows 0699 in heaven 08064, might such a thing 01697 be? And he said 0559 08799, Behold, thou shalt see 07200 08802 it with thine eyes 05869, but shalt not eat 0398 08799 thereof.
20 And so it fell out unto him: for the people 05971 trode 07429 08799 upon him in the gate 08179, and he died 04191 08799.
2Ki 8
1 Then spake 01696 08765 Elisha 0477 unto the woman 0802, whose son 01121 he had restored to life 02421 08689, saying 0559 08800, Arise 06965 08798, and go 03212 08798 thou and thine household 01004, and sojourn 01481 08798 wheresoever 0834 thou canst sojourn 01481 08799: for the LORD 03068 hath called 07121 08804 for a famine 07458; and it shall also come 0935 08804 upon the land 0776 seven 07651 years 08141.
2 And the woman 0802 arose 06965 08799, and did 06213 08799 after the saying 01697 of the man 0376 of God 0430: and she went 03212 08799 with her household 01004, and sojourned 01481 08799 in the land 0776 of the Philistines 06430 seven 07651 years 08141.
3 And it came to pass at the seven 07651 years' 08141 end 07097, that the woman 0802 returned 07725 08799 out of the land 0776 of the Philistines 06430: and she went forth 03318 08799 to cry 06817 08800 unto the king 04428 for her house 01004 and for her land 07704.
4 And the king 04428 talked 01696 08764 with Gehazi 01522 the servant 05288 of the man 0376 of God 0430, saying 0559 08800, Tell 05608 08761 me, I pray thee, all the great things 01419 that Elisha 0477 hath done 06213 08804.
5 And it came to pass, as he was telling 05608 08764 the king 04428 how he had restored 02421 00 a dead body 04191 08801 to life 02421 08689, that, behold, the woman 0802, whose son 01121 he had restored to life 02421 08689, cried 06817 08802 to the king 04428 for her house 01004 and for her land 07704. And Gehazi 01522 said 0559 08799, My lord 0113, O king 04428, this [is] the woman 0802, and this [is] her son 01121, whom Elisha 0477 restored to life 02421 08689.
6 And when the king 04428 asked 07592 08799 the woman 0802, she told 05608 08762 him. So the king 04428 appointed 05414 08799 unto her a certain 0259 officer 05631, saying 0559 08800, Restore 07725 08685 all that [was] hers, and all the fruits 08393 of the field 07704 since the day 03117 that she left 05800 08800 the land 0776, even until now.
7 And Elisha 0477 came 0935 08799 to Damascus 01834; and Benhadad 01130 the king 04428 of Syria 0758 was sick 02470 08802; and it was told 05046 08714 him, saying 0559 08800, The man 0376 of God 0430 is come 0935 08804 hither 02008.
8 And the king 04428 said 0559 08799 unto Hazael 02371, Take 03947 08798 a present 04503 in thine hand 03027, and go 03212 08798, meet 07125 08800 the man 0376 of God 0430, and enquire 01875 08804 of the LORD 03068 by him, saying 0559 08800, Shall I recover 02421 08799 of this disease 02483?
9 So Hazael 02371 went 03212 08799 to meet 07125 08800 him, and took 03947 08799 a present 04503 with him 03027, even of every good thing 02898 of Damascus 01834, forty 0705 camels' 01581 burden 04853, and came 0935 08799 and stood 05975 08799 before 06440 him, and said 0559 08799, Thy son 01121 Benhadad 01130 king 04428 of Syria 0758 hath sent 07971 08804 me to thee, saying 0559 08800, Shall I recover 02421 08799 of this disease 02483?
10 And Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799 unto him, Go 03212 08798, say 0559 08798 unto him, Thou mayest certainly 02421 08800 recover 02421 08799: howbeit the LORD 03068 hath shewed 07200 08689 me that he shall surely 04191 08800 die 04191 08799.
11 And he settled 05975 08686 his countenance 06440 stedfastly 07760 08799, until he was ashamed 0954 08800: and the man 0376 of God 0430 wept 01058 08799.
12 And Hazael 02371 said 0559 08799, Why weepeth 01058 08802 my lord 0113? And he answered 0559 08799, Because I know 03045 08804 the evil 07451 that thou wilt do 06213 08799 unto the children 01121 of Israel 03478: their strong holds 04013 wilt thou set 07971 08762 on fire 0784, and their young men 0970 wilt thou slay 02026 08799 with the sword 02719, and wilt dash 07376 08762 their children 05768, and rip up 01234 08762 their women with child 02030.
13 And Hazael 02371 said 0559 08799, But what, [is] thy servant 05650 a dog 03611, that he should do 06213 08799 this great 01419 thing 01697? And Elisha 0477 answered 0559 08799, The LORD 03068 hath shewed 07200 08689 me that thou [shalt be] king 04428 over Syria 0758.
14 So he departed 03212 08799 from Elisha 0477, and came 0935 08799 to his master 0113; who said 0559 08799 to him, What said 0559 08804 Elisha 0477 to thee? And he answered 0559 08799, He told 0559 08804 me [that] thou shouldest surely 02421 08800 recover 02421 08799.
15 And it came to pass on the morrow 04283, that he took 03947 08799 a thick cloth 04346, and dipped 02881 08799 [it] in water 04325, and spread 06566 08799 [it] on his face 06440, so that he died 04191 08799: and Hazael 02371 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
16 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 08804.
17 Thirty 07970 and two 08147 years 08141 old 01121 was he when he began to reign 04427 08800; and he reigned 04427 08804 eight 08083 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389.
18 And he walked 03212 08799 in the way 01870 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478, as did 06213 08804 the house 01004 of Ahab 0256: for the daughter 01323 of Ahab 0256 was his wife 0802: and he did 06213 08799 evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068.
19 Yet the LORD 03068 would 014 08804 not destroy 07843 08687 Judah 03063 for David 01732 his servant's 05650 sake, as he promised 0559 08804 him to give 05414 08800 him alway 03117 a light 05216, [and] to his children 01121.
20 In his days 03117 Edom 0123 revolted 06586 08804 from under the hand 03027 of Judah 03063, and made 04427 08686 a king 04428 over themselves.
21 So Joram 03141 went over 05674 08799 to Zair 06811, and all the chariots 07393 with him: and he rose 06965 08804 by night 03915, and smote 05221 08686 the Edomites 0123 which compassed him about 05437 08802, and the captains 08269 of the chariots 07393: and the people 05971 fled 05127 08799 into their tents 0168.
22 Yet Edom 0123 revolted 06586 08799 from under the hand 03027 of Judah 03063 unto this day 03117. Then Libnah 03841 revolted 06586 08799 at the same 01931 time 06256.
23 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Joram 03141, and all that he did 06213 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
24 And Joram 03141 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01, and was buried 06912 08735 with his fathers 01 in the city 05892 of David 01732: and Ahaziah 0274 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
25 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 08804.
26 Two 08147 and twenty 06242 years 08141 old 01121 [was] Ahaziah 0274 when he began to reign 04427 08800; and he reigned 04427 08804 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.
27 And he walked 03212 08799 in the way 01870 of the house 01004 of Ahab 0256, and did 06213 08799 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.
28 And he went 03212 08799 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 08686 Joram 03141.
29 And king 04428 Joram 03141 went back 07725 08799 to be healed 07495 08692 in Jezreel 03157 of the wounds 04347 which the Syrians 0761 had given 05221 08686 him at Ramah 07414, when he fought 03898 08736 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 08804 to see 07200 08800 Joram 03141 the son 01121 of Ahab 0256 in Jezreel 03157, because he was sick 02470 08802.
2Ki 9
1 And Elisha 0477 the prophet 05030 called 07121 08804 one 0259 of the children 01121 of the prophets 05030, and said 0559 08799 unto him, Gird up 02296 08798 thy loins 04975, and take 03947 08798 this box 06378 of oil 08081 in thine hand 03027, and go 03212 08798 to Ramothgilead 07433 01568:
2 And when thou comest 0935 08804 thither, look out 07200 08798 there Jehu 03058 the son 01121 of Jehoshaphat 03092 the son 01121 of Nimshi 05250, and go in 0935 08804, and make him arise up 06965 08689 from among 08432 his brethren 0251, and carry 0935 08689 him to an inner 02315 chamber 02315;
3 Then take 03947 08804 the box 06378 of oil 08081, and pour 03332 08804 [it] on his head 07218, and say 0559 08804, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, I have anointed 04886 08804 thee king 04428 over Israel 03478. Then open 06605 08804 the door 01817, and flee 05127 08804, and tarry 02442 08762 not.
4 So the young man 05288, [even] the young man 05288 the prophet 05030, went 03212 08799 to Ramothgilead 07433 01568.
5 And when he came 0935 08799, behold, the captains 08269 of the host 02428 [were] sitting 03427 08802; and he said 0559 08799, I have an errand 01697 to thee, O captain 08269. And Jehu 03058 said 0559 08799, Unto which of all us? And he said 0559 08799, To thee, O captain 08269.
6 And he arose 06965 08799, and went 0935 08799 into the house 01004; and he poured 03332 08799 the oil 08081 on his head 07218, and said 0559 08799 unto him, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068 God 0430 of Israel 03478, I have anointed 04886 08804 thee king 04428 over the people 05971 of the LORD 03068, [even] over Israel 03478.
7 And thou shalt smite 05221 08689 the house 01004 of Ahab 0256 thy master 0113, that I may avenge 05358 08765 the blood 01818 of my servants 05650 the prophets 05030, and the blood 01818 of all the servants 05650 of the LORD 03068, at the hand 03027 of Jezebel 0348.
8 For the whole house 01004 of Ahab 0256 shall perish 06 08804: and I will cut off 03772 08689 from Ahab 0256 him that pisseth 08366 08688 against the wall 07023, and him that is shut up 06113 08803 and left 05800 08803 in Israel 03478:
9 And I will make 05414 08804 the house 01004 of Ahab 0256 like the house 01004 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, and like the house 01004 of Baasha 01201 the son 01121 of Ahijah 0281:
10 And the dogs 03611 shall eat 0398 08799 Jezebel 0348 in the portion 02506 of Jezreel 03157, and [there shall be] none to bury 06912 08802 [her]. And he opened 06605 08799 the door 01817, and fled 05127 08799.
11 Then Jehu 03058 came forth 03318 08804 to the servants 05650 of his lord 0113: and [one] said 0559 08799 unto him, [Is] all well 07965? wherefore came 0935 08804 this mad 07696 08794 [fellow] to thee? And he said 0559 08799 unto them, Ye know 03045 08804 the man 0376, and his communication 07879.
12 And they said 0559 08799, [It is] false 08267; tell 05046 08685 us now. And he said 0559 08799, Thus and thus spake 0559 08804 he to me, saying 0559 08800, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, I have anointed 04886 08804 thee king 04428 over Israel 03478.
13 Then they hasted 04116 08762, and took 03947 08799 every man 0376 his garment 0899, and put 07760 08799 [it] under him on the top 01634 of the stairs 04609, and blew 08628 08799 with trumpets 07782, saying 0559 08799, Jehu 03058 is king 04427 08804.
14 So Jehu 03058 the son 01121 of Jehoshaphat 03092 the son 01121 of Nimshi 05250 conspired 07194 08691 against Joram 03141. (Now Joram 03141 had kept 08104 08802 Ramothgilead 07433 01568, he and all Israel 03478, because 06440 of Hazael 02371 king 04428 of Syria 0758.
15 But king 04428 Joram 03088 was returned 07725 08799 to be healed 07495 08692 in Jezreel 03157 of the wounds 04347 which the Syrians 0761 had given 05221 08686 him, when he fought 03898 08736 with Hazael 02371 king 04428 of Syria 0758.) And Jehu 03058 said 0559 08799, If it be 03426 your minds 05315, [then] let none 0408 go forth 03318 08799 [nor] escape 06412 out of the city 05892 to go 03212 08800 to tell 05046 08687 [it] in Jezreel 03157.
16 So Jehu 03058 rode in a chariot 07392 08799, and went 03212 08799 to Jezreel 03157; for Joram 03141 lay 07901 08802 there. And Ahaziah 0274 king 04428 of Judah 03063 was come down 03381 08804 to see 07200 08800 Joram 03141.
17 And there stood 05975 08802 a watchman 06822 08802 on the tower 04026 in Jezreel 03157, and he spied 07200 08799 the company 08229 of Jehu 03058 as he came 0935 08800, and said 0559 08799, I see 07200 08802 a company 08229. And Joram 03088 said 0559 08799, Take 03947 08798 an horseman 07395, and send 07971 08798 to meet 07125 08800 them, and let him say 0559 08799, [Is it] peace 07965?
18 So there went 03212 08799 one on horseback 07392 08802 05483 to meet 07125 08800 him, and said 0559 08799, Thus saith 0559 08804 the king 04428, [Is it] peace 07965? And Jehu 03058 said 0559 08799, What hast thou to do with peace 07965? turn 05437 08798 thee behind 0310 me. And the watchman 06822 08802 told 05046 08686, saying 0559 08800, The messenger 04397 came 0935 08804 to them, but he cometh not again 07725 08804.
19 Then he sent out 07971 08799 a second 08145 on horseback 07392 08802 05483, which came 0935 08799 to them, and said 0559 08799, Thus saith 0559 08804 the king 04428, [Is it] peace 07965? And Jehu 03058 answered 0559 08799, What hast thou to do with peace 07965? turn 05437 08798 thee behind 0310 me.
20 And the watchman 06822 08802 told 05046 08686, saying 0559 08800, He came 0935 08804 even unto them, and cometh not again 07725 08804: and the driving 04491 [is] like the driving 04491 of Jehu 03058 the son 01121 of Nimshi 05250; for he driveth 05090 08799 furiously 07697.
21 And Joram 03088 said 0559 08799, Make ready 0631 08798. And his chariot 07393 was made ready 0631 08799. And Joram 03088 king 04428 of Israel 03478 and Ahaziah 0274 king 04428 of Judah 03063 went out 03318 08799, each 0376 in his chariot 07393, and they went out 03318 08799 against 07125 08800 Jehu 03058, and met 04672 08799 him in the portion 02513 of Naboth 05022 the Jezreelite 03158.
22 And it came to pass, when Joram 03088 saw 07200 08800 Jehu 03058, that he said 0559 08799, [Is it] peace 07965, Jehu 03058? And he answered 0559 08799, What peace 07965, so long as 05704 the whoredoms 02183 of thy mother 0517 Jezebel 0348 and her witchcrafts 03785 [are so] many 07227?
23 And Joram 03088 turned 02015 08799 his hands 03027, and fled 05127 08799, and said 0559 08799 to Ahaziah 0274, [There is] treachery 04820, O Ahaziah 0274.
24 And Jehu 03058 drew a bow 07198 with his full 04390 08765 strength 03027, and smote 05221 08686 Jehoram 03088 between his arms 02220, and the arrow 02678 went out 03318 08799 at his heart 03820, and he sunk down 03766 08799 in his chariot 07393.
25 Then said 0559 08799 [Jehu] to Bidkar 0920 his captain 07991, Take up 05375 08798, [and] cast 07993 08685 him in the portion 02513 of the field 07704 of Naboth 05022 the Jezreelite 03158: for remember 02142 08798 how that, when I and thou rode 07392 08802 together 06776 after 0310 Ahab 0256 his father 01, the LORD 03068 laid 05375 08804 this burden 04853 upon him;
26 Surely I have seen 07200 08804 yesterday 0570 the blood 01818 of Naboth 05022, and the blood 01818 of his sons 01121, saith 05002 08803 the LORD 03068; and I will requite 07999 08765 thee in this plat 02513, saith 05002 08803 the LORD 03068. Now therefore take 05375 08798 [and] cast 07993 08685 him into the plat 02513 [of ground], according to the word 01697 of the LORD 03068.
27 But when Ahaziah 0274 the king 04428 of Judah 03063 saw 07200 08804 [this], he fled 05127 08799 by the way 01870 of the garden 01588 house 01004. And Jehu 03058 followed 07291 08799 after 0310 him, and said 0559 08799, Smite 05221 08685 him also in the chariot 04818. [And they did so] at the going up 04608 to Gur 01483, which [is] by Ibleam 02991. And he fled 05127 08799 to Megiddo 04023, and died 04191 08799 there.
28 And his servants 05650 carried 07392 08686 him in a chariot to Jerusalem 03389, and buried 06912 08799 him in his sepulchre 06900 with his fathers 01 in the city 05892 of David 01732.
29 And in the eleventh 0259 06240 08141 year 08141 of Joram 03141 the son 01121 of Ahab 0256 began Ahaziah 0274 to reign 04427 08804 over Judah 03063.
30 And when Jehu 03058 was come 0935 08799 to Jezreel 03157, Jezebel 0348 heard 08085 08804 [of it]; and she painted 07760 08799 06320 her face 05869, and tired 03190 08686 her head 07218, and looked out 08259 08686 at a window 02474.
31 And as Jehu 03058 entered in 0935 08804 at the gate 08179, she said 0559 08799, [Had] Zimri 02174 peace 07965, who slew 02026 08802 his master 0113?
32 And he lifted up 05375 08799 his face 06440 to the window 02474, and said 0559 08799, Who [is] on my side? who? And there looked out 08259 08686 to him two 08147 [or] three 07969 eunuchs 05631.
33 And he said 0559 08799, Throw her down 08058 08798. So they threw her down 08058 08799: and [some] of her blood 01818 was sprinkled 05137 08799 on the wall 07023, and on the horses 05483: and he trode her under foot 07429 08799.
34 And when he was come in 0935 08799, he did eat 0398 08799 and drink 08354 08799, and said 0559 08799, Go 06485 08798, see now this cursed 0779 08803 [woman], and bury 06912 08798 her: for she [is] a king's 04428 daughter 01323.
35 And they went 03212 08799 to bury 06912 08800 her: but they found 04672 08804 no more of her than 0518 the skull 01538, and the feet 07272, and the palms 03709 of [her] hands 03027.
36 Wherefore they came again 07725 08799, and told 05046 08686 him. And he said 0559 08799, This [is] the word 01697 of the LORD 03068, which he spake 01696 08765 by 03027 his servant 05650 Elijah 0452 the Tishbite 08664, saying 0559 08800, In the portion 02506 of Jezreel 03157 shall dogs 03611 eat 0398 08799 the flesh 01320 of Jezebel 0348:
37 And the carcase 05038 of Jezebel 0348 shall be as dung 01828 upon the face 06440 of the field 07704 in the portion 02506 of Jezreel 03157; [so] that they shall not say 0559 08799, This [is] Jezebel 0348.
2Ki 10
1 And Ahab 0256 had seventy 07657 sons 01121 in Samaria 08111. And Jehu 03058 wrote 03789 08799 letters 05612, and sent 07971 08799 to Samaria 08111, unto the rulers 08269 of Jezreel 03157, to the elders 02205, and to them that brought up 0539 08802 Ahab's 0256 [children], saying 0559 08800,
2 Now as soon as this letter 05612 cometh 0935 08800 to you, seeing your master's 0113 sons 01121 [are] with you, and [there are] with you chariots 07393 and horses 05483, a fenced 04013 city 05892 also, and armour 05402;
3 Look even out 07200 08804 the best 02896 and meetest 03477 of your master's 0113 sons 01121, and set 07760 08804 [him] on his father's 01 throne 03678, and fight 03898 08734 for your master's 0113 house 01004.
4 But they were exceedingly 03966 03966 afraid 03372 08799, and said 0559 08799, Behold, two 08147 kings 04428 stood 05975 08804 not before 06440 him: how then shall we stand 05975 08799?
5 And he that [was] over the house 01004, and he that [was] over the city 05892, the elders 02205 also, and the bringers up 0539 08802 [of the children], sent 07971 08799 to Jehu 03058, saying 0559 08800, We [are] thy servants 05650, and will do 06213 08799 all that thou shalt bid 0559 08799 us; we will not make any 0376 king 04427 08686: do 06213 08798 thou [that which is] good 02896 in thine eyes 05869.
6 Then he wrote 03789 08799 a letter 05612 the second time 08145 to them, saying 0559 08800, If ye [be] mine, and [if] ye will hearken 08085 08802 unto my voice 06963, take 03947 08798 ye the heads 07218 of the men 0582 your master's 0113 sons 01121, and come 0935 08798 to me to Jezreel 03157 by to morrow 04279 this time 06256. Now the king's 04428 sons 01121, [being] seventy 07657 persons 0376, [were] with the great men 01419 of the city 05892, which brought them up 01431 08764.
7 And it came to pass, when the letter 05612 came 0935 08800 to them, that they took 03947 08799 the king's 04428 sons 01121, and slew 07819 08799 seventy 07657 persons 0376, and put 07760 08799 their heads 07218 in baskets 01731, and sent 07971 08799 him [them] to Jezreel 03157.
8 And there came 0935 08799 a messenger 04397, and told 05046 08686 him, saying 0559 08800, They have brought 0935 08689 the heads 07218 of the king's 04428 sons 01121. And he said 0559 08799, Lay 07760 08798 ye them in two 08147 heaps 06652 at the entering in 06607 of the gate 08179 until the morning 01242.
9 And it came to pass in the morning 01242, that he went out 03318 08799, and stood 05975 08799, and said 0559 08799 to all the people 05971, Ye [be] righteous 06662: behold, I conspired 07194 08804 against my master 0113, and slew 02026 08799 him: but who slew 05221 08689 all these?
10 Know 03045 08798 now 0645 that there shall fall 05307 08799 unto the earth 0776 nothing of the word 01697 of the LORD 03068, which the LORD 03068 spake 01696 08765 concerning the house 01004 of Ahab 0256: for the LORD 03068 hath done 06213 08804 [that] which he spake 01696 08765 by 03027 his servant 05650 Elijah 0452.
11 So Jehu 03058 slew 05221 08686 all that remained 07604 08737 of the house 01004 of Ahab 0256 in Jezreel 03157, and all his great men 01419, and his kinsfolks 03045 08794, and his priests 03548, until he left 07604 08689 him none remaining 08300.
12 And he arose 06965 08799 and departed 0935 08799, and came 03212 08799 to Samaria 08111. [And] as he [was] at the shearing 07462 08802 house 01004 08677 01044 in the way 01870,
13 Jehu 03058 met 04672 08804 with the brethren 0251 of Ahaziah 0274 king 04428 of Judah 03063, and said 0559 08799, Who [are] ye? And they answered 0559 08799, We [are] the brethren 0251 of Ahaziah 0274; and we go down 03381 08799 to salute 07965 the children 01121 of the king 04428 and the children 01121 of the queen 01377.
14 And he said 0559 08799, Take 08610 08798 them alive 02416. And they took 08610 08799 them alive 02416, and slew 07819 08799 them at the pit 0953 of the shearing house 01044, [even] two 08147 and forty 0705 men 0376; neither left 07604 08689 he any 0376 of them.
15 And when he was departed 03212 08799 thence, he lighted 04672 08799 on Jehonadab 03082 the son 01121 of Rechab 07394 [coming] to meet 07125 08800 him: and he saluted 01288 08762 him, and said 0559 08799 to him, Is 03426 thine heart 03824 right 03477, as my heart 03824 [is] with thy heart 03824? And Jehonadab 03082 answered 0559 08799, It is 03426. If it be, give 05414 08798 [me] thine hand 03027. And he gave 05414 08799 [him] his hand 03027; and he took him up 05927 08686 to him into the chariot 04818.
16 And he said 0559 08799, Come 03212 08798 with me, and see 07200 08798 my zeal 07068 for the LORD 03068. So they made him ride 07392 08686 in his chariot 07393.
17 And when he came 0935 08799 to Samaria 08111, he slew 05221 08686 all that remained 07604 08737 unto Ahab 0256 in Samaria 08111, till he had destroyed 08045 08689 him, according to the saying 01697 of the LORD 03068, which he spake 01696 08765 to Elijah 0452.
18 And Jehu 03058 gathered 06908 00 all the people 05971 together 06908 08799, and said 0559 08799 unto them, Ahab 0256 served 05647 08804 Baal 01168 a little 04592; [but] Jehu 03058 shall serve 05647 08799 him much 07235 08687.
19 Now therefore call 07121 08798 unto me all the prophets 05030 of Baal 01168, all his servants 05647 08802, and all his priests 03548; let none 0376 be wanting 06485 08735: for I have a great 01419 sacrifice 02077 [to do] to Baal 01168; whosoever shall be wanting 06485 08735, he shall not live 02421 08799. But Jehu 03058 did 06213 08804 [it] in subtilty 06122, to the intent that he might destroy 06 08687 the worshippers 05647 08802 of Baal 01168.
20 And Jehu 03058 said 0559 08799, Proclaim 06942 08761 a solemn assembly 06116 for Baal 01168. And they proclaimed 07121 08799 [it].
21 And Jehu 03058 sent 07971 08799 through all Israel 03478: and all the worshippers 05647 08802 of Baal 01168 came 0935 08799, so that there was not a man 0376 left 07604 08738 that came 0935 08804 not. And they came 0935 08799 into the house 01004 of Baal 01168; and the house 01004 of Baal 01168 was full 04390 08735 from one end 06310 to another 06310.
22 And he said 0559 08799 unto him that [was] over the vestry 04458, Bring forth 03318 08685 vestments 03830 for all the worshippers 05647 08802 of Baal 01168. And he brought them forth 03318 08686 vestments 04403.
23 And Jehu 03058 went 0935 08799, and Jehonadab 03082 the son 01121 of Rechab 07394, into the house 01004 of Baal 01168, and said 0559 08799 unto the worshippers 05647 08802 of Baal 01168, Search 02664 08761, and look 07200 08798 that there be 03426 here with you none of the servants 05650 of the LORD 03068, but the worshippers 05647 08802 of Baal 01168 only.
24 And when they went in 0935 08799 to offer 06213 08800 sacrifices 02077 and burnt offerings 05930, Jehu 03058 appointed 07760 08804 fourscore 08084 men 0376 without 02351, and said 0559 08799, [If] any 0376 of the men 0582 whom I have brought 0935 08688 into your hands 03027 escape 04422 08735, [he that letteth him go], his life 05315 [shall be] for the life 05315 of him.
25 And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end 03615 08763 of offering 06213 08800 the burnt offering 05930, that Jehu 03058 said 0559 08799 to the guard 07323 08801 and to the captains 07991, Go in 0935 08798, [and] slay 05221 08685 them; let none 0376 come forth 03318 08799. And they smote 05221 08686 them with the edge 06310 of the sword 02719; and the guard 07323 08801 and the captains 07991 cast [them] out 07993 08686, and went 03212 08799 to the city 05892 of the house 01004 of Baal 01168.
26 And they brought forth 03318 08686 the images 04676 out of the house 01004 of Baal 01168, and burned 08313 08799 them.
27 And they brake down 05422 08799 the image 04676 of Baal 01168, and brake down 05422 08799 the house 01004 of Baal 01168, and made 07760 08799 it a draught house 04163 08675 04280 unto this day 03117.
28 Thus Jehu 03058 destroyed 08045 08686 Baal 01168 out of Israel 03478.
29 Howbeit [from] the sins 02399 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, who made Israel 03478 to sin 02398 08689, Jehu 03058 departed 05493 08804 not from after 0310 them, [to wit], the golden 02091 calves 05695 that [were] in Bethel 01008, and that [were] in Dan 01835.
30 And the LORD 03068 said 0559 08799 unto Jehu 03058, Because thou hast done well 02895 08689 in executing 06213 08800 [that which is] right 03477 in mine eyes 05869, [and] hast done 06213 08804 unto the house 01004 of Ahab 0256 according to all that [was] in mine heart 03824, thy children 01121 of the fourth 07243 [generation] shall sit 03427 08799 on the throne 03678 of Israel 03478.
31 But Jehu 03058 took no heed 08104 08804 to walk 03212 08800 in the law 08451 of the LORD 03068 God 0430 of Israel 03478 with all his heart 03824: for he departed 05493 08804 not from the sins 02403 of Jeroboam 03379, which made Israel 03478 to sin 02398 08689.
32 In those days 03117 the LORD 03068 began 02490 08689 to cut 07096 00 Israel 03478 short 07096 08763: and Hazael 02371 smote 05221 08686 them in all the coasts 01366 of Israel 03478;
33 From Jordan 03383 eastward 04217 08121, all the land 0776 of Gilead 01568, the Gadites 01425, and the Reubenites 07206, and the Manassites 04520, from Aroer 06177, which [is] by the river 05158 Arnon 0769, even Gilead 01568 and Bashan 01316.
34 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Jehu 03058, and all that he did 06213 08804, and all his might 01369, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478?
35 And Jehu 03058 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01: and they buried 06912 08799 him in Samaria 08111. And Jehoahaz 03059 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
36 And the time 03117 that Jehu 03058 reigned 04427 08804 over Israel 03478 in Samaria 08111 [was] twenty 06242 and eight 08083 years 08141.
2Ki 11
1 And when Athaliah 06271 the mother 0517 of Ahaziah 0274 saw 07200 08804 that her son 01121 was dead 04191 08804, she arose 06965 08799 and destroyed 06 08762 all the seed 02233 royal 04467.
2 But Jehosheba 03089, the daughter 01323 of king 04428 Joram 03141, sister 0269 of Ahaziah 0274, took 03947 08799 Joash 03101 the son 01121 of Ahaziah 0274, and stole 01589 08799 him from among 08432 the king's 04428 sons 01121 [which were] slain 04191 08716; and they hid 05641 08686 him, [even] him and his nurse 03243 08688, in the bedchamber 02315 04296 from 06440 Athaliah 06271, so that he was not slain 04191 08717.
3 And he was with her hid 02244 08693 in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068 six 08337 years 08141. And Athaliah 06271 did reign 04427 08802 over the land 0776.
4 And the seventh 07637 year 08141 Jehoiada 03077 sent 07971 08804 and fetched 03947 08799 the rulers 08269 over hundreds 03967, with the captains 03746 and the guard 07323 08801, and brought 0935 08686 them to him into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and made 03772 08799 a covenant 01285 with them, and took an oath 07650 08686 of them in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and shewed 07200 08686 them the king's 04428 son 01121.
5 And he commanded 06680 08762 them, saying 0559 08800, This [is] the thing 01697 that ye shall do 06213 08799; A third part 07992 of you that enter in 0935 08802 on the sabbath 07676 shall even be keepers 08104 08802 of the watch 04931 of the king's 04428 house 01004;
6 And a third part 07992 [shall be] at the gate 08179 of Sur 05495; and a third part 07992 at the gate 08179 behind 0310 the guard 07323 08801: so shall ye keep 08104 08804 the watch 04931 of the house 01004, that it be not broken down 04535.
7 And two 08147 parts 03027 of all you that go forth 03318 08802 on the sabbath 07676, even they shall keep 08104 08804 the watch 04931 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068 about 0413 the king 04428.
8 And ye shall compass 05362 08689 the king 04428 round about 05439, every man 0376 with his weapons 03627 in his hand 03027: and he that cometh 0935 08802 within the ranges 07713, let him be slain 04191 08714: and be ye with the king 04428 as he goeth out 03318 08800 and as he cometh in 0935 08800.
9 And the captains 08269 over the hundreds 03967 did 06213 08799 according to all [things] that Jehoiada 03077 the priest 03548 commanded 06680 08765: and they took 03947 08799 every man 0376 his men 0582 that were to come in 0935 08802 on the sabbath 07676, with them that should go out 03318 08802 on the sabbath 07676, and came 0935 08799 to Jehoiada 03077 the priest 03548.
10 And to the captains 08269 over hundreds 03967 did the priest 03548 give 05414 08799 king 04428 David's 01732 spears 02595 and shields 07982, that [were] in the temple 01004 of the LORD 03068.
11 And the guard 07323 08801 stood 05975 08799, every man 0376 with his weapons 03627 in his hand 03027, round about 05439 the king 04428, from the right 03233 corner 03802 of the temple 01004 to the left 08042 corner 03802 of the temple 01004, [along] by the altar 04196 and the temple 01004.
12 And he brought forth 03318 08686 the king's 04428 son 01121, and put 05414 08799 the crown 05145 upon him, and [gave him] the testimony 05715; and they made him king 04427 08686, and anointed 04886 08799 him; and they clapped 05221 08686 their hands 03709, and said 0559 08799, God save 02421 08799 the king 04428.
13 And when Athaliah 06271 heard 08085 08799 the noise 06963 of the guard 07323 08801 [and] of the people 05971, she came 0935 08799 to the people 05971 into the temple 01004 of the LORD 03068.
14 And when she looked 07200 08799, behold, the king 04428 stood 05975 08802 by a pillar 05982, as the manner 04941 [was], and the princes 08269 and the trumpeters 02689 by the king 04428, and all the people 05971 of the land 0776 rejoiced 08056, and blew 08628 08802 with trumpets 02689: and Athaliah 06271 rent 07167 08799 her clothes 0899, and cried 07121 08799, Treason 07195, Treason 07195.
15 But Jehoiada 03077 the priest 03548 commanded 06680 08762 the captains 08269 of the hundreds 03967, the officers 06485 08803 of the host 02428, and said 0559 08799 unto them, Have her forth 03318 08685 without 01004 the ranges 07713: and him that followeth 0935 08802 0310 her kill 04191 08687 with the sword 02719. For the priest 03548 had said 0559 08804, Let her not be slain 04191 08714 in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
16 And they laid 07760 08799 hands 03027 on her; and she went 0935 08799 by the way 01870 by the which the horses 05483 came 03996 into the king's 04428 house 01004: and there was she slain 04191 08714.
17 And Jehoiada 03077 made 03772 08799 a covenant 01285 between the LORD 03068 and the king 04428 and the people 05971, that they should be the LORD'S 03068 people 05971; between the king 04428 also and the people 05971.
18 And all the people 05971 of the land 0776 went 0935 08799 into the house 01004 of Baal 01168, and brake it down 05422 08799; his altars 04196 and his images 06754 brake they in pieces 07665 08765 thoroughly 03190 08687, and slew 02026 08804 Mattan 04977 the priest 03548 of Baal 01168 before 06440 the altars 04196. And the priest 03548 appointed 07760 08799 officers 06485 08803 08676 06486 over the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
19 And he took 03947 08799 the rulers 08269 over hundreds 03967, and the captains 03746, and the guard 07323 08801, and all the people 05971 of the land 0776; and they brought down 03381 08686 the king 04428 from the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and came 0935 08799 by the way 01870 of the gate 08179 of the guard 07323 08801 to the king's 04428 house 01004. And he sat 03427 08799 on the throne 03678 of the kings 04428.
20 And all the people 05971 of the land 0776 rejoiced 08055 08799, and the city 05892 was in quiet 08252 08804: and they slew 04191 08689 Athaliah 06271 with the sword 02719 [beside] the king's 04428 house 01004.
21 Seven 07651 years 08141 old 01121 [was] Jehoash 03060 when he began to reign 04427 08800.

1 In the seventh 07651 year 08141 of Jehu 03058 Jehoash 03060 began to reign 04427 08804; and forty 0705 years 08141 reigned 04427 08804 he in Jerusalem 03389. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Zibiah 06645 of Beersheba 0884.
2 And Jehoash 03060 did 06213 08799 [that which was] right 03477 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068 all his days 03117 wherein Jehoiada 03077 the priest 03548 instructed 03384 08689 him.
3 But the high places 01116 were not taken away 05493 08804: the people 05971 still sacrificed 02076 08764 and burnt incense 06999 08764 in the high places 01116.
4 And Jehoash 03060 said 0559 08799 to the priests 03548, All the money 03701 of the dedicated things 06944 that is brought 0935 08714 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, [even] the money 03701 of every one 0376 that passeth 05674 08802 [the account], the money 03701 that every man 05315 is set at 06187, [and] all the money 03701 that cometh 05927 08799 into any man's 0376 heart 03820 to bring 0935 08687 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068,
5 Let the priests 03548 take 03947 08799 [it] to them, every man 0376 of his acquaintance 04378: and let them repair 02388 08762 the breaches 0919 of the house 01004, wheresoever any breach 0919 shall be found 04672 08735.
6 But it was [so, that] in the three 07969 08141 and twentieth 06242 year 08141 of king 04428 Jehoash 03060 the priests 03548 had not repaired 02388 08765 the breaches 0919 of the house 01004.
7 Then king 04428 Jehoash 03060 called 07121 08799 for Jehoiada 03077 the priest 03548, and the [other] priests 03548, and said 0559 08799 unto them, Why repair 02388 08764 ye not the breaches 0919 of the house 01004? now therefore receive 03947 08799 no [more] money 03701 of your acquaintance 04378, but deliver 05414 08799 it for the breaches 0919 of the house 01004.
8 And the priests 03548 consented 0225 08735 to receive 03947 08800 no 01115 [more] money 03701 of the people 05971, neither 01115 to repair 02388 08763 the breaches 0919 of the house 01004.
9 But Jehoiada 03077 the priest 03548 took 03947 08799 a 0259 chest 0727, and bored 05344 08799 a hole 02356 in the lid 01817 of it, and set 05414 08799 it beside 0681 the altar 04196, on the right side 03225 as one 0376 cometh 0935 08800 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068: and the priests 03548 that kept 08104 08802 the door 05592 put 05414 08804 therein all the money 03701 [that was] brought 0935 08716 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
10 And it was [so], when they saw 07200 08800 that [there was] much 07227 money 03701 in the chest 0727, that the king's 04428 scribe 05608 08802 and the high 01419 priest 03548 came up 05927 08799, and they put up in bags 06696 08799, and told 04487 08799 the money 03701 that was found 04672 08737 in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
11 And they gave 05414 08804 the money 03701, being told 08505 08794, into the hands 03027 of them that did 06213 08802 the work 04399, that had the oversight 06485 08716 08675 06485 08803 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068: and they laid it out 03318 08686 to the carpenters 02796 06086 and builders 01129 08802, that wrought 06213 08802 upon the house 01004 of the LORD 03068,
12 And to masons 01443 08802, and hewers 02672 08802 of stone 068, and to buy 07069 08800 timber 06086 and hewed 04274 stone 068 to repair 02388 08763 the breaches 0919 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and for all that was laid out 03318 08799 for the house 01004 to repair 02394 [it].
13 Howbeit there were not made 06213 08735 for the house 01004 of the LORD 03068 bowls 05592 of silver 03701, snuffers 04212, basons 04219, trumpets 02689, any vessels 03627 of gold 02091, or vessels 03627 of silver 03701, of the money 03701 [that was] brought 0935 08716 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068:
14 But they gave 05414 08799 that to the workmen 04399 06213 08802, and repaired 02388 08765 therewith the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
15 Moreover they reckoned 02803 08762 not with the men 0582, into whose hand 03027 they delivered 05414 08799 the money 03701 to be bestowed 05414 08800 on workmen 04399: for they dealt 06213 08802 faithfully 0530.
16 The trespass 0817 money 03701 and sin 02403 money 03701 was not brought 0935 08714 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068: it was the priests' 03548.
17 Then Hazael 02371 king 04428 of Syria 0758 went up 05927 08799, and fought 03898 08735 against Gath 01661, and took 03920 08799 it: and Hazael 02371 set 07760 08799 his face 06440 to go up 05927 08800 to Jerusalem 03389.
18 And Jehoash 03060 king 04428 of Judah 03063 took 03947 08799 all the hallowed things 06944 that Jehoshaphat 03092, and Jehoram 03088, and Ahaziah 0274, his fathers 01, kings 04428 of Judah 03063, had dedicated 06942 08689, and his own hallowed things 06944, and all the gold 02091 [that was] found 04672 08737 in the treasures 0214 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and in the king's 04428 house 01004, and sent 07971 08799 [it] to Hazael 02371 king 04428 of Syria 0758: and he went away 05927 08799 from Jerusalem 03389.
19 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Joash 03101, and all that he did 06213 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
20 And his servants 05650 arose 06965 08799, and made 07194 08799 a conspiracy 07195, and slew 05221 08686 Joash 03101 in the house 01004 of Millo 04407 08677 01037, which goeth down 03381 08802 to Silla 05538.
21 For Jozachar 03108 the son 01121 of Shimeath 08100, and Jehozabad 03075 the son 01121 of Shomer 07763, his servants 05650, smote 05221 08689 him, and he died 04191 08799; and they buried 06912 08799 him with his fathers 01 in the city 05892 of David 01732: and Amaziah 0558 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
2Ki 13
1 In the three 07969 08141 and twentieth 06242 year 08141 of Joash 03101 the son 01121 of Ahaziah 0274 king 04428 of Judah 03063 Jehoahaz 03059 the son 01121 of Jehu 03058 began to reign 04427 08804 over Israel 03478 in Samaria 08111, [and reigned] seventeen 07651 06240 years 08141.
2 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, and followed 03212 08799 0310 the sins 02403 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, which made Israel 03478 to sin 02398 08689; he departed 05493 08804 not therefrom.
3 And the anger 0639 of the LORD 03068 was kindled 02734 08799 against Israel 03478, and he delivered 05414 08799 them into the hand 03027 of Hazael 02371 king 04428 of Syria 0758, and into the hand 03027 of Benhadad 01130 the son 01121 of Hazael 02371, all [their] days 03117.
4 And Jehoahaz 03059 besought 02470 08762 the LORD 03068, and the LORD 03068 hearkened 08085 08799 unto 06440 him: for he saw 07200 08804 the oppression 03906 of Israel 03478, because the king 04428 of Syria 0758 oppressed 03905 08804 them.
5 (And the LORD 03068 gave 05414 08799 Israel 03478 a saviour 03467 08688, so that they went out 03318 08799 from under the hand 03027 of the Syrians 0758: and the children 01121 of Israel 03478 dwelt 03427 08799 in their tents 0168, as beforetime 08032 08543.
6 Nevertheless they departed 05493 08804 not from the sins 02403 of the house 01004 of Jeroboam 03379, who made Israel 03478 sin 02398 08689, [but] walked 01980 08804 therein: and there remained 05975 08804 the grove 0842 also in Samaria 08111.)
7 Neither did he leave 07604 08689 of the people 05971 to Jehoahaz 03059 but fifty 02572 horsemen 06571, and ten 06235 chariots 07393, and ten 06235 thousand 0505 footmen 07273; for the king 04428 of Syria 0758 had destroyed 06 08765 them, and had made 07760 08799 them like the dust 06083 by threshing 01758 08800.
8 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Jehoahaz 03059, and all that he did 06213 08804, and his might 01369, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478?
9 And Jehoahaz 03059 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01; and they buried 06912 08799 him in Samaria 08111: and Joash 03101 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
10 In the thirty 07970 08141 and seventh 07651 year 08141 of Joash 03101 king 04428 of Judah 03063 began Jehoash 03060 the son 01121 of Jehoahaz 03059 to reign 04427 08804 over Israel 03478 in Samaria 08111, [and reigned] sixteen 08337 06240 years 08141.
11 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068; he departed 05493 08804 not from all the sins 02403 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, who made Israel 03478 sin 02398 08689: [but] he walked 01980 08804 therein.
12 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Joash 03101, and all that he did 06213 08804, and his might 01369 wherewith he fought 03898 08738 against Amaziah 0558 king 04428 of Judah 03063, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478?
13 And Joash 03101 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01; and Jeroboam 03379 sat 03427 08804 upon his throne 03678: and Joash 03101 was buried 06912 08735 in Samaria 08111 with the kings 04428 of Israel 03478.
14 Now Elisha 0477 was fallen sick 02470 08804 of his sickness 02483 whereof he died 04191 08799. And Joash 03101 the king 04428 of Israel 03478 came down 03381 08799 unto him, and wept 01058 08799 over his face 06440, and said 0559 08799, O my father 01, my father 01, the chariot 07393 of Israel 03478, and the horsemen 06571 thereof.
15 And Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799 unto him, Take 03947 08798 bow 07198 and arrows 02671. And he took 03947 08799 unto him bow 07198 and arrows 02671.
16 And he said 0559 08799 to the king 04428 of Israel 03478, Put 07392 08685 thine hand 03027 upon the bow 07198. And he put 07392 08686 his hand 03027 [upon it]: and Elisha 0477 put 07760 08799 his hands 03027 upon the king's 04428 hands 03027.
17 And he said 0559 08799, Open 06605 08798 the window 02474 eastward 06924. And he opened 06605 08799 [it]. Then Elisha 0477 said 0559 08799, Shoot 03384 08798. And he shot 03384 08686. And he said 0559 08799, The arrow 02671 of the LORD'S 03068 deliverance 08668, and the arrow 02671 of deliverance 08668 from Syria 0758: for thou shalt smite 05221 08689 the Syrians 0758 in Aphek 0663, till thou have consumed 03615 08763 [them].
18 And he said 0559 08799, Take 03947 08798 the arrows 02671. And he took 03947 08799 [them]. And he said 0559 08799 unto the king 04428 of Israel 03478, Smite 05221 08685 upon the ground 0776. And he smote 05221 08686 thrice 07969 06471, and stayed 05975 08799.
19 And the man 0376 of God 0430 was wroth 07107 08799 with him, and said 0559 08799, Thou shouldest have smitten 05221 08687 five 02568 or six 08337 times 06471; then hadst thou smitten 05221 08689 Syria 0758 till thou hadst consumed 03615 08763 [it]: whereas now thou shalt smite 05221 08686 Syria 0758 [but] thrice 07969 06471.
20 And Elisha 0477 died 04191 08799, and they buried 06912 08799 him. And the bands 01416 of the Moabites 04124 invaded 0935 08799 the land 0776 at the coming in 0935 08802 of the year 08141.
21 And it came to pass, as they were burying 06912 08802 a man 0376, that, behold, they spied 07200 08804 a band 01416 [of men]; and they cast 07993 08686 the man 0376 into the sepulchre 06913 of Elisha 0477: and when the man 0376 was let down 03212 08799, and touched 05060 08799 the bones 06106 of Elisha 0477, he revived 02421 08799, and stood up 06965 08799 on his feet 07272.
22 But Hazael 02371 king 04428 of Syria 0758 oppressed 03905 08804 Israel 03478 all the days 03117 of Jehoahaz 03059.
23 And the LORD 03068 was gracious 02603 08799 unto them, and had compassion 07355 08762 on them, and had respect 06437 08799 unto them, because of 04616 his covenant 01285 with Abraham 085, Isaac 03327, and Jacob 03290, and would 014 08804 not destroy 07843 08687 them, neither cast 07993 08689 he them from his presence 06440 as yet 05704.
24 So Hazael 02371 king 04428 of Syria 0758 died 04191 08799; and Benhadad 01130 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
25 And Jehoash 03060 the son 01121 of Jehoahaz 03059 took 03947 08799 again 07725 08799 out of the hand 03027 of Benhadad 01130 the son 01121 of Hazael 02371 the cities 05892, which he had taken 03947 08804 out of the hand 03027 of Jehoahaz 03059 his father 01 by war 04421. Three 07969 times 06471 did Joash 03101 beat 05221 08689 him, and recovered 07725 08686 the cities 05892 of Israel 03478.
2Ki 14
1 In the second 08147 year 08141 of Joash 03101 son 01121 of Jehoahaz 03099 king 04428 of Israel 03478 reigned 04427 08804 Amaziah 0558 the son 01121 of Joash 03101 king 04428 of Judah 03063.
2 He was twenty 06242 and five 02568 years 08141 old 01121 when he began to reign 04427 08800, and reigned 04427 08804 twenty 06242 and nine 08672 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Jehoaddan 03086 of Jerusalem 03389.
3 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] right 03477 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, yet 07535 not like David 01732 his father 01: he did 06213 08804 according to all things as Joash 03101 his father 01 did 06213 08804.
4 Howbeit the high places 01116 were not taken away 05493 08804: as yet 05750 the people 05971 did sacrifice 02076 08764 and burnt incense 06999 08764 on the high places 01116.
5 And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom 04467 was confirmed 02388 08804 in his hand 03027, that he slew 05221 08686 his servants 05650 which had slain 05221 08688 the king 04428 his father 01.
6 But the children 01121 of the murderers 05221 08688 he slew 04191 08689 not: according unto that which is written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the law 08451 of Moses 04872, wherein the LORD 03068 commanded 06680 08765, saying 0559 08800, The fathers 01 shall not be put to death 04191 08714 for the children 01121, nor the children 01121 be put to death 04191 08714 for the fathers 01; but every man 0376 shall be put to death 04191 08799 for his own sin 02399.
7 He slew 05221 08689 of Edom 0123 in the valley 01516 of salt 04417 ten 06235 thousand 0505, and took 08610 08804 Selah 05554 by war 04421, and called 07121 08799 the name 08034 of it Joktheel 03371 unto this day 03117.
8 Then Amaziah 0558 sent 07971 08804 messengers 04397 to Jehoash 03060, the son 01121 of Jehoahaz 03059 son 01121 of Jehu 03058, king 04428 of Israel 03478, saying 0559 08800, Come 03212 08798, let us look 07200 08691 one another in the face 06440.
9 And Jehoash 03060 the king 04428 of Israel 03478 sent 07971 08799 to Amaziah 0558 king 04428 of Judah 03063, saying 0559 08800, The thistle 02336 that [was] in Lebanon 03844 sent 07971 08804 to the cedar 0730 that [was] in Lebanon 03844, saying 0559 08800, Give 05414 08798 thy daughter 01323 to my son 01121 to wife 0802: and there passed 05674 08799 by a wild 07704 beast 02416 that [was] in Lebanon 03844, and trode down 07429 08799 the thistle 02336.
10 Thou hast indeed 05221 08687 smitten 05221 08689 Edom 0123, and thine heart 03820 hath lifted thee up 05375 08804: glory 03513 08734 [of this], and tarry 03427 08798 at home 01004: for why shouldest thou meddle 01624 08691 to [thy] hurt 07451, that thou shouldest fall 05307 08804, [even] thou, and Judah 03063 with thee?
11 But Amaziah 0558 would not hear 08085 08804. Therefore Jehoash 03060 king 04428 of Israel 03478 went up 05927 08799; and he and Amaziah 0558 king 04428 of Judah 03063 looked 07200 08691 one another in the face 06440 at Bethshemesh 01053, which [belongeth] to Judah 03063.
12 And Judah 03063 was put to the worse 05062 08735 before 06440 Israel 03478; and they fled 05127 08799 every man 0376 to their tents 0168.
13 And Jehoash 03060 king 04428 of Israel 03478 took 08610 08804 Amaziah 0558 king 04428 of Judah 03063, the son 01121 of Jehoash 03060 the son 01121 of Ahaziah 0274, at Bethshemesh 01053, and came 0935 08799 to Jerusalem 03389, and brake down 06555 08799 the wall 02346 of Jerusalem 03389 from the gate 08179 of Ephraim 0669 unto the corner 06438 gate 08179, four 0702 hundred 03967 cubits 0520.
14 And he took 03947 08804 all the gold 02091 and silver 03701, and all the vessels 03627 that were found 04672 08737 in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and in the treasures 0214 of the king's 04428 house 01004, and hostages 01121 08594, and returned 07725 08799 to Samaria 08111.
15 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Jehoash 03060 which he did 06213 08804, and his might 01369, and how he fought 03898 08738 with Amaziah 0558 king 04428 of Judah 03063, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478?
16 And Jehoash 03060 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01, and was buried 06912 08735 in Samaria 08111 with the kings 04428 of Israel 03478; and Jeroboam 03379 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
17 And Amaziah 0558 the son 01121 of Joash 03101 king 04428 of Judah 03063 lived 02421 08799 after 0310 the death 04194 of Jehoash 03060 son 01121 of Jehoahaz 03059 king 04428 of Israel 03478 fifteen 02568 06240 years 08141.
18 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Amaziah 0558, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
19 Now they made 07194 08799 a conspiracy 07195 against him in Jerusalem 03389: and he fled 05127 08799 to Lachish 03923; but they sent 07971 08799 after 0310 him to Lachish 03923, and slew 04191 08686 him there.
20 And they brought 05375 08799 him on horses 05483: and he was buried 06912 08735 at Jerusalem 03389 with his fathers 01 in the city 05892 of David 01732.
21 And all the people 05971 of Judah 03063 took 03947 08799 Azariah 05838, which [was] sixteen 08337 06240 years 08141 old 01121, and made him king 04427 08686 instead of his father 01 Amaziah 0558.
22 He built 01129 08804 Elath 0359, and restored 07725 08686 it to Judah 03063, after 0310 that the king 04428 slept 07901 08800 with his fathers 01.
23 In the fifteenth 02568 06240 08141 year 08141 of Amaziah 0558 the son 01121 of Joash 03101 king 04428 of Judah 03063 Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Joash 03101 king 04428 of Israel 03478 began to reign 04427 08804 in Samaria 08111, [and reigned] forty 0705 and one 0259 years 08141.
24 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068: he departed 05493 08804 not from all the sins 02403 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, who made Israel 03478 to sin 02398 08689.
25 He restored 07725 08689 the coast 01366 of Israel 03478 from the entering 0935 08800 of Hamath 02574 unto the sea 03220 of the plain 06160, according to the word 01697 of the LORD 03068 God 0430 of Israel 03478, which he spake 01696 08765 by the hand 03027 of his servant 05650 Jonah 03124, the son 01121 of Amittai 0573, the prophet 05030, which [was] of Gathhepher 01662.
26 For the LORD 03068 saw 07200 08804 the affliction 06040 of Israel 03478, [that it was] very 03966 bitter 04784 08802: for [there was] not 0657 any shut up 06113 08803, nor any left 05800 08803, nor any helper 05826 08802 for Israel 03478.
27 And the LORD 03068 said 01696 08765 not that he would blot out 04229 08800 the name 08034 of Israel 03478 from under heaven 08064: but he saved 03467 08686 them by the hand 03027 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Joash 03101.
28 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Jeroboam 03379, and all that he did 06213 08804, and his might 01369, how he warred 03898 08738, and how he recovered 07725 08689 Damascus 01834, and Hamath 02574, [which belonged] to Judah 03063, for Israel 03478, are they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478?
29 And Jeroboam 03379 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01, [even] with the kings 04428 of Israel 03478; and Zachariah 02148 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
2Ki 15
1 In the twenty 06242 08141 and seventh 07651 year 08141 of Jeroboam 03379 king 04428 of Israel 03478 began Azariah 05838 son 01121 of Amaziah 0558 king 04428 of Judah 03063 to reign 04427 08804.
2 Sixteen 08337 06240 years 08141 old 01121 was he when he began to reign 04427 08800, and he reigned 04427 08804 two 08147 and fifty 02572 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Jecholiah 03203 of Jerusalem 03389.
3 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] right 03477 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, according to all that his father 01 Amaziah 0558 had done 06213 08804;
4 Save that the high places 01116 were not removed 05493 08804: the people 05971 sacrificed 02076 08764 and burnt incense 06999 08764 still on the high places 01116.
5 And the LORD 03068 smote 05060 08762 the king 04428, so that he was a leper 06879 08794 unto the day 03117 of his death 04194, and dwelt 03427 08799 in a several 02669 house 01004. And Jotham 03147 the king's 04428 son 01121 [was] over the house 01004, judging 08199 08802 the people 05971 of the land 0776.
6 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Azariah 05838, and all that he did 06213 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
7 So Azariah 05838 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01; and they buried 06912 08799 him with his fathers 01 in the city 05892 of David 01732: and Jotham 03147 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
8 In the thirty 07970 08141 and eighth 08083 year 08141 of Azariah 05838 king 04428 of Judah 03063 did Zachariah 02148 the son 01121 of Jeroboam 03379 reign 04427 08804 over Israel 03478 in Samaria 08111 six 08337 months 02320.
9 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, as his fathers 01 had done 06213 08804: he departed 05493 08804 not from the sins 02403 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, who made Israel 03478 to sin 02398 08689.
10 And Shallum 07967 the son 01121 of Jabesh 03003 conspired 07194 08799 against him, and smote 05221 08686 him before 06905 the people 05971, and slew 04191 08686 him, and reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
11 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Zachariah 02148, behold, they [are] written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478.
12 This [was] the word 01697 of the LORD 03068 which he spake 01696 08765 unto Jehu 03058, saying 0559 08800, Thy sons 01121 shall sit 03427 08799 on the throne 03678 of Israel 03478 unto the fourth 07243 [generation]. And so it came to pass.
13 Shallum 07967 the son 01121 of Jabesh 03003 began to reign 04427 08804 in the nine 08672 and thirtieth 07970 year 08141 of Uzziah 05818 king 04428 of Judah 03063; and he reigned 04427 08799 a full 03117 month 03391 in Samaria 08111.
14 For Menahem 04505 the son 01121 of Gadi 01424 went up 05927 08799 from Tirzah 08656, and came 0935 08799 to Samaria 08111, and smote 05221 08686 Shallum 07967 the son 01121 of Jabesh 03003 in Samaria 08111, and slew 04191 08686 him, and reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
15 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Shallum 07967, and his conspiracy 07195 which he made 07194 08804, behold, they [are] written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478.
16 Then Menahem 04505 smote 05221 08686 Tiphsah 08607, and all that [were] therein, and the coasts 01366 thereof from Tirzah 08656: because they opened 06605 08804 not [to him], therefore he smote 05221 08686 [it; and] all the women therein that were with child 02030 he ripped up 01234 08765.
17 In the nine 08672 08141 and thirtieth 07970 year 08141 of Azariah 05838 king 04428 of Judah 03063 began Menahem 04505 the son 01121 of Gadi 01424 to reign 04427 08804 over Israel 03478, [and reigned] ten 06235 years 08141 in Samaria 08111.
18 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068: he departed 05493 08804 not all his days 03117 from the sins 02403 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, who made Israel 03478 to sin 02398 08689.
19 [And] Pul 06322 the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 came 0935 08804 against the land 0776: and Menahem 04505 gave 05414 08799 Pul 06322 a thousand 0505 talents 03603 of silver 03701, that his hand 03027 might be with him to confirm 02388 08687 the kingdom 04467 in his hand 03027.
20 And Menahem 04505 exacted 03318 08686 the money 03701 of Israel 03478, [even] of all the mighty men 01368 of wealth 02428, of each 0259 man 0376 fifty 02572 shekels 08255 of silver 03701, to give 05414 08800 to the king 04428 of Assyria 0804. So the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 turned back 07725 08799, and stayed 05975 08804 not there in the land 0776.
21 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Menahem 04505, and all that he did 06213 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478?
22 And Menahem 04505 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01; and Pekahiah 06494 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
23 In the fiftieth 02572 08141 year 08141 of Azariah 05838 king 04428 of Judah 03063 Pekahiah 06494 the son 01121 of Menahem 04505 began to reign 04427 08804 over Israel 03478 in Samaria 08111, [and reigned] two years 08141.
24 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068: he departed 05493 08804 not from the sins 02403 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, who made Israel 03478 to sin 02398 08689.
25 But Pekah 06492 the son 01121 of Remaliah 07425, a captain 07991 of his, conspired 07194 08799 against him, and smote 05221 08686 him in Samaria 08111, in the palace 0759 of the king's 04428 house 01004, with Argob 0709 and Arieh 0745, and with him fifty 02572 men 0376 of the Gileadites 01121 01569: and he killed 04191 08686 him, and reigned 04427 08799 in his room.
26 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Pekahiah 06494, and all that he did 06213 08804, behold, they [are] written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478.
27 In the two 08147 08141 and fiftieth 02572 year 08141 of Azariah 05838 king 04428 of Judah 03063 Pekah 06492 the son 01121 of Remaliah 07425 began to reign 04427 08804 over Israel 03478 in Samaria 08111, [and reigned] twenty 06242 years 08141.
28 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068: he departed 05493 08804 not from the sins 02403 of Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, who made Israel 03478 to sin 02398 08689.
29 In the days 03117 of Pekah 06492 king 04428 of Israel 03478 came 0935 08804 Tiglathpileser 08407 king 04428 of Assyria 0804, and took 03947 08799 Ijon 05859, and Abelbethmaachah 062, and Janoah 03239, and Kedesh 06943, and Hazor 02674, and Gilead 01568, and Galilee 01551, all the land 0776 of Naphtali 05321, and carried them captive 01540 08686 to Assyria 0804.
30 And Hoshea 01954 the son 01121 of Elah 0425 made 07194 08799 a conspiracy 07195 against Pekah 06492 the son 01121 of Remaliah 07425, and smote 05221 08686 him, and slew 04191 08686 him, and reigned 04427 08799 in his stead, in the twentieth 06242 year 08141 of Jotham 03147 the son 01121 of Uzziah 05818.
31 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Pekah 06492, and all that he did 06213 08804, behold, they [are] written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478.
32 In the second 08147 year 08141 of Pekah 06492 the son 01121 of Remaliah 07425 king 04428 of Israel 03478 began Jotham 03147 the son 01121 of Uzziah 05818 king 04428 of Judah 03063 to reign 04427 08804.
33 Five 02568 and twenty 06242 years 08141 old 01121 was he when he began to reign 04427 08800, and he reigned 04427 08804 sixteen 08337 06240 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Jerusha 03388, the daughter 01323 of Zadok 06659.
34 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] right 03477 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068: he did 06213 08804 according to all that his father 01 Uzziah 05818 had done 06213 08804.
35 Howbeit the high places 01116 were not removed 05493 08804: the people 05971 sacrificed 02076 08764 and burned incense 06999 08764 still in the high places 01116. He built 01129 08804 the higher 05945 gate 08179 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
36 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Jotham 03147, and all that he did 06213 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
37 In those days 03117 the LORD 03068 began 02490 08689 to send 07971 08687 against Judah 03063 Rezin 07526 the king 04428 of Syria 0758, and Pekah 06492 the son 01121 of Remaliah 07425.
38 And Jotham 03147 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01, and was buried 06912 08735 with his fathers 01 in the city 05892 of David 01732 his father 01: and Ahaz 0271 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
2Ki 16
1 In the seventeenth 07651 06240 08141 year 08141 of Pekah 06492 the son 01121 of Remaliah 07425 Ahaz 0271 the son 01121 of Jotham 03147 king 04428 of Judah 03063 began to reign 04427 08804.
2 Twenty 06242 years 08141 old 01121 [was] Ahaz 0271 when he began to reign 04427 08800, and reigned 04427 08804 sixteen 08337 06240 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389, and did 06213 08804 not [that which was] right 03477 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068 his God 0430, like David 01732 his father 01.
3 But he walked 03212 08799 in the way 01870 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478, yea, and made his son 01121 to pass through 05674 08689 the fire 0784, according to the abominations 08441 of the heathen 01471, whom the LORD 03068 cast out 03423 08689 from before 06440 the children 01121 of Israel 03478.
4 And he sacrificed 02076 08762 and burnt incense 06999 08762 in the high places 01116, and on the hills 01389, and under every green 07488 tree 06086.
5 Then Rezin 07526 king 04428 of Syria 0758 and Pekah 06492 son 01121 of Remaliah 07425 king 04428 of Israel 03478 came up 05927 08799 to Jerusalem 03389 to war 04421: and they besieged 06696 08799 Ahaz 0271, but could 03201 08804 not overcome 03898 08736 [him].
6 At that time 06256 Rezin 07526 king 04428 of Syria 0758 recovered 07725 08689 Elath 0359 to Syria 0758 08675 0130, and drave 05394 08762 the Jews 03064 from Elath 0359: and the Syrians 0726 came 0935 08804 to Elath 0359, and dwelt 03427 08799 there unto this day 03117.
7 So Ahaz 0271 sent 07971 08799 messengers 04397 to Tiglathpileser 08407 king 04428 of Assyria 0804, saying 0559 08800, I [am] thy servant 05650 and thy son 01121: come up 05927 08798, and save 03467 08685 me out of the hand 03709 of the king 04428 of Syria 0758, and out of the hand 03709 of the king 04428 of Israel 03478, which rise up 06965 08801 against me.
8 And Ahaz 0271 took 03947 08799 the silver 03701 and gold 02091 that was found 04672 08737 in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and in the treasures 0214 of the king's 04428 house 01004, and sent 07971 08799 [it for] a present 07810 to the king 04428 of Assyria 0804.
9 And the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 hearkened 08085 08799 unto him: for the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 went up 05927 08799 against Damascus 01834, and took 08610 08799 it, and carried [the people of] it captive 01540 08686 to Kir 07024, and slew 04191 08689 Rezin 07526.
10 And king 04428 Ahaz 0271 went 03212 08799 to Damascus 01834 to meet 07125 08800 Tiglathpileser 08407 king 04428 of Assyria 0804, and saw 07200 08799 an altar 04196 that [was] at Damascus 01834: and king 04428 Ahaz 0271 sent 07971 08799 to Urijah 0223 the priest 03548 the fashion 01823 of the altar 04196, and the pattern 08403 of it, according to all the workmanship 04639 thereof.
11 And Urijah 0223 the priest 03548 built 01129 08799 an altar 04196 according to all that king 04428 Ahaz 0271 had sent 07971 08804 from Damascus 01834: so Urijah 0223 the priest 03548 made 06213 08804 [it] against king 04428 Ahaz 0271 came 0935 08800 from Damascus 01834.
12 And when the king 04428 was come 0935 08799 from Damascus 01834, the king 04428 saw 07200 08799 the altar 04196: and the king 04428 approached 07126 08799 to the altar 04196, and offered 05927 08686 thereon.
13 And he burnt 06999 08686 his burnt offering 05930 and his meat offering 04503, and poured 05258 08686 his drink offering 05262, and sprinkled 02236 08799 the blood 01818 of his peace offerings 08002, upon the altar 04196.
14 And he brought 07126 08686 also the brasen 05178 altar 04196, which [was] before 06440 the LORD 03068, from the forefront 06440 of the house 01004, from between the altar 04196 and the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and put 05414 08799 it on the north 06828 side 03409 of the altar 04196.
15 And king 04428 Ahaz 0271 commanded 06680 08762 Urijah 0223 the priest 03548, saying 0559 08800, Upon the great 01419 altar 04196 burn 06999 08685 the morning 01242 burnt offering 05930, and the evening 06153 meat offering 04503, and the king's 04428 burnt sacrifice 05930, and his meat offering 04503, with the burnt offering 05930 of all the people 05971 of the land 0776, and their meat offering 04503, and their drink offerings 05262; and sprinkle 02236 08799 upon it all the blood 01818 of the burnt offering 05930, and all the blood 01818 of the sacrifice 02077: and the brasen 05178 altar 04196 shall be for me to enquire 01239 08763 [by].
16 Thus did 06213 08799 Urijah 0223 the priest 03548, according to all that king 04428 Ahaz 0271 commanded 06680 08765.
17 And king 04428 Ahaz 0271 cut off 07112 08762 the borders 04526 of the bases 04350, and removed 05493 08686 the laver 03595 from off them; and took down 03381 08689 the sea 03220 from off the brasen 05178 oxen 01241 that [were] under it, and put 05414 08799 it upon a pavement 04837 of stones 068.
18 And the covert 04329 08675 04329 for the sabbath 07676 that they had built 01129 08804 in the house 01004, and the king's 04428 entry 03996 without 02435, turned 05437 08689 he from the house 01004 of the LORD 03068 for 06440 the king 04428 of Assyria 0804.
19 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Ahaz 0271 which he did 06213 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
20 And Ahaz 0271 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01, and was buried 06912 08735 with his fathers 01 in the city 05892 of David 01732: and Hezekiah 02396 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
2Ki 17
1 In the twelfth 08147 06240 year 08141 of Ahaz 0271 king 04428 of Judah 03063 began Hoshea 01954 the son 01121 of Elah 0425 to reign 04427 08804 in Samaria 08111 over Israel 03478 nine 08672 years 08141.
2 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, but not as the kings 04428 of Israel 03478 that were before 06440 him.
3 Against him came up 05927 08804 Shalmaneser 08022 king 04428 of Assyria 0804; and Hoshea 01954 became his servant 05650, and gave 07725 08686 him presents 04503.
4 And the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 found 04672 08799 conspiracy 07195 in Hoshea 01954: for he had sent 07971 08804 messengers 04397 to So 05471 king 04428 of Egypt 04714, and brought 05927 08689 no present 04503 to the king 04428 of Assyria 0804, as [he had done] year 08141 by year 08141: therefore the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 shut him up 06113 08799, and bound 0631 08799 him in prison 01004 03608.
5 Then the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 came up 05927 08799 throughout all the land 0776, and went up 05927 08799 to Samaria 08111, and besieged 06696 08799 it three 07969 years 08141.
6 In the ninth 08671 year 08141 of Hoshea 01954 the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 took 03920 08804 Samaria 08111, and carried 01540 00 Israel 03478 away 01540 08686 into Assyria 0804, and placed 03427 08686 them in Halah 02477 and in Habor 02249 [by] the river 05104 of Gozan 01470, and in the cities 05892 of the Medes 04074.
7 For [so] it was, that the children 01121 of Israel 03478 had sinned 02398 08804 against the LORD 03068 their God 0430, which had brought them up 05927 08688 out of the land 0776 of Egypt 04714, from under the hand 03027 of Pharaoh 06547 king 04428 of Egypt 04714, and had feared 03372 08799 other 0312 gods 0430,
8 And walked 03212 08799 in the statutes 02708 of the heathen 01471, whom the LORD 03068 cast out 03423 08689 from before 06440 the children 01121 of Israel 03478, and of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478, which they had made 06213 08804.
9 And the children 01121 of Israel 03478 did secretly 02644 08762 [those] things 01697 that [were] not right against the LORD 03068 their God 0430, and they built 01129 08799 them high places 01116 in all their cities 05892, from the tower 04026 of the watchmen 05341 08802 to the fenced 04013 city 05892.
10 And they set them up 05324 08686 images 04676 and groves 0842 in every high 01364 hill 01389, and under every green 07488 tree 06086:
11 And there they burnt incense 06999 08762 in all the high places 01116, as [did] the heathen 01471 whom the LORD 03068 carried away 01540 08689 before 06440 them; and wrought 06213 08799 wicked 07451 things 01697 to provoke the LORD 03068 to anger 03707 08687:
12 For they served 05647 08799 idols 01544, whereof the LORD 03068 had said 0559 08804 unto them, Ye shall not do 06213 08799 this thing 01697.
13 Yet the LORD 03068 testified 05749 08686 against Israel 03478, and against Judah 03063, by 03027 all the prophets 05030, [and by] all the seers 02374, saying 0559 08800, Turn 07725 08798 ye from your evil 07451 ways 01870, and keep 08104 08798 my commandments 04687 [and] my statutes 02708, according to all the law 08451 which I commanded 06680 08765 your fathers 01, and which I sent 07971 08804 to you by 03027 my servants 05650 the prophets 05030.
14 Notwithstanding they would not hear 08085 08804, but hardened 07185 08686 their necks 06203, like to the neck 06203 of their fathers 01, that did not believe 0539 08689 in the LORD 03068 their God 0430.
15 And they rejected 03988 08799 his statutes 02706, and his covenant 01285 that he made 03772 08804 with their fathers 01, and his testimonies 05715 which he testified 05749 08689 against them; and they followed 03212 08799 0310 vanity 01892, and became vain 01891 08799, and went after 0310 the heathen 01471 that [were] round about 05439 them, [concerning] whom the LORD 03068 had charged 06680 08765 them, that they should not do 06213 08800 like them.
16 And they left 05800 08799 all the commandments 04687 of the LORD 03068 their God 0430, and made 06213 08799 them molten images 04541, [even] two 08147 calves 05695, and made 06213 08799 a grove 0842, and worshipped 07812 08691 all the host 06635 of heaven 08064, and served 05647 08799 Baal 01168.
17 And they caused their sons 01121 and their daughters 01323 to pass 05674 08686 through the fire 0784, and used 07080 08799 divination 07081 and enchantments 05172 08762, and sold 04376 08691 themselves to do 06213 08800 evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, to provoke him to anger 03707 08687.
18 Therefore the LORD 03068 was very 03966 angry 0599 08691 with Israel 03478, and removed 05493 08686 them out of his sight 06440: there was none left 07604 08738 but the tribe 07626 of Judah 03063 only.
19 Also Judah 03063 kept 08104 08804 not the commandments 04687 of the LORD 03068 their God 0430, but walked 03212 08799 in the statutes 02708 of Israel 03478 which they made 06213 08804.
20 And the LORD 03068 rejected 03988 08799 all the seed 02233 of Israel 03478, and afflicted 06031 08762 them, and delivered 05414 08799 them into the hand 03027 of spoilers 08154 08802, until he had cast 07993 08689 them out of his sight 06440.
21 For he rent 07167 08804 Israel 03478 from the house 01004 of David 01732; and they made Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028 king 04427 08686: and Jeroboam 03379 drave 05080 08686 08675 05077 08686 Israel 03478 from following 0310 the LORD 03068, and made them sin 02398 08689 a great 01419 sin 02401.
22 For the children 01121 of Israel 03478 walked 03212 08799 in all the sins 02403 of Jeroboam 03379 which he did 06213 08804; they departed 05493 08804 not from them;
23 Until the LORD 03068 removed 05493 08689 Israel 03478 out of his sight 06440, as he had said 01696 08765 by 03027 all his servants 05650 the prophets 05030. So was Israel 03478 carried away 01540 08799 out of their own land 0127 to Assyria 0804 unto this day 03117.
24 And the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 brought 0935 08686 [men] from Babylon 0894, and from Cuthah 03575, and from Ava 05755, and from Hamath 02574, and from Sepharvaim 05617, and placed 03427 08686 [them] in the cities 05892 of Samaria 08111 instead of the children 01121 of Israel 03478: and they possessed 03423 08799 Samaria 08111, and dwelt 03427 08799 in the cities 05892 thereof.
25 And [so] it was at the beginning 08462 of their dwelling 03427 08800 there, [that] they feared 03372 08804 not the LORD 03068: therefore the LORD 03068 sent 07971 08762 lions 0738 among them, which slew 02026 08802 [some] of them.
26 Wherefore they spake 0559 08799 to the king 04428 of Assyria 0804, saying 0559 08800, The nations 01471 which thou hast removed 01540 08689, and placed 03427 08686 in the cities 05892 of Samaria 08111, know 03045 08804 not the manner 04941 of the God 0430 of the land 0776: therefore he hath sent 07971 08762 lions 0738 among them, and, behold, they slay 04191 08688 them, because they know 03045 08802 not the manner 04941 of the God 0430 of the land 0776.
27 Then the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 commanded 06680 08762, saying 0559 08800, Carry 03212 08685 thither one 0259 of the priests 03548 whom ye brought 01540 08689 from thence; and let them go 03212 08799 and dwell 03427 08799 there, and let him teach 03384 08686 them the manner 04941 of the God 0430 of the land 0776.
28 Then one 0259 of the priests 03548 whom they had carried away 01540 08689 from Samaria 08111 came 0935 08799 and dwelt 03427 08799 in Bethel 01008, and taught 03384 08688 them how they should fear 03372 08799 the LORD 03068.
29 Howbeit every nation 01471 made 06213 08802 gods 0430 of their own, and put 03240 08686 [them] in the houses 01004 of the high places 01116 which the Samaritans 08118 had made 06213 08804, every nation 01471 in their cities 05892 wherein they dwelt 03427 08802.
30 And the men 0582 of Babylon 0894 made 06213 08804 Succothbenoth 05524, and the men 0582 of Cuth 03575 made 06213 08804 Nergal 05370, and the men 0582 of Hamath 02574 made 06213 08804 Ashima 0807,
31 And the Avites 05757 made 06213 08804 Nibhaz 05026 and Tartak 08662, and the Sepharvites 05616 burnt 08313 08802 their children 01121 in fire 0784 to Adrammelech 0152 and Anammelech 06048, the gods 0430 of Sepharvaim 05617.
32 So they feared 03373 the LORD 03068, and made 06213 08799 unto themselves of the lowest 07098 of them priests 03548 of the high places 01116, which sacrificed 06213 08802 for them in the houses 01004 of the high places 01116.
33 They feared 03373 the LORD 03068, and served 05647 08802 their own gods 0430, after the manner 04941 of the nations 01471 whom they carried away 01540 08689 from thence.
34 Unto this day 03117 they do 06213 08802 after the former 07223 manners 04941: they fear 03373 not the LORD 03068, neither do 06213 08802 they after their statutes 02708, or after their ordinances 04941, or after the law 08451 and commandment 04687 which the LORD 03068 commanded 06680 08765 the children 01121 of Jacob 03290, whom he named 07760 08804 08034 Israel 03478;
35 With whom the LORD 03068 had made 03772 08799 a covenant 01285, and charged 06680 08762 them, saying 0559 08800, Ye shall not fear 03372 08799 other 0312 gods 0430, nor bow 07812 08691 yourselves to them, nor serve 05647 08799 them, nor sacrifice 02076 08799 to them:
36 But the LORD 03068, who brought you up 05927 08689 out of the land 0776 of Egypt 04714 with great 01419 power 03581 and a stretched out 05186 08803 arm 02220, him shall ye fear 03372 08799, and him shall ye worship 07812 08691, and to him shall ye do sacrifice 02076 08799.
37 And the statutes 02706, and the ordinances 04941, and the law 08451, and the commandment 04687, which he wrote 03789 08804 for you, ye shall observe 08104 08799 to do 06213 08800 for evermore 03117; and ye shall not fear 03372 08799 other 0312 gods 0430.
38 And the covenant 01285 that I have made 03772 08804 with you ye shall not forget 07911 08799; neither shall ye fear 03372 08799 other 0312 gods 0430.
39 But the LORD 03068 your God 0430 ye shall fear 03372 08799; and he shall deliver 05337 08686 you out of the hand 03027 of all your enemies 0341 08802.
40 Howbeit they did not hearken 08085 08804, but they did 06213 08802 after their former 07223 manner 04941.
41 So these nations 01471 feared 03373 the LORD 03068, and served 05647 08802 their graven images 06456, both their children 01121, and their children's 01121 children 01121: as did 06213 08804 their fathers 01, so do 06213 08802 they unto this day 03117.
2Ki 18
1 Now it came to pass in the third 07969 year 08141 of Hoshea 01954 son 01121 of Elah 0425 king 04428 of Israel 03478, [that] Hezekiah 02396 the son 01121 of Ahaz 0271 king 04428 of Judah 03063 began to reign 04427 08804.
2 Twenty 06242 and five 02568 years 08141 old 01121 was he when he began to reign 04427 08800; and he reigned 04427 08804 twenty 06242 and nine 08672 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389. His mother's 0517 name 08034 also [was] Abi 021, the daughter 01323 of Zachariah 02148.
3 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] right 03477 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, according to all that David 01732 his father 01 did 06213 08804.
4 He removed 05493 08689 the high places 01116, and brake 07665 08765 the images 04676, and cut down 03772 08804 the groves 0842, and brake in pieces 03807 08765 the brasen 05178 serpent 05175 that Moses 04872 had made 06213 08804: for unto those days 03117 the children 01121 of Israel 03478 did burn incense 06999 08764 to it: and he called 07121 08799 it Nehushtan 05180.
5 He trusted 0982 08804 in the LORD 03068 God 0430 of Israel 03478; so that after 0310 him was none like him among all the kings 04428 of Judah 03063, nor [any] that were before 06440 him.
6 For he clave 01692 08799 to the LORD 03068, [and] departed 05493 08804 not from following 0310 him, but kept 08104 08799 his commandments 04687, which the LORD 03068 commanded 06680 08765 Moses 04872.
7 And the LORD 03068 was with him; [and] he prospered 07919 08686 whithersoever he went forth 03318 08799: and he rebelled 04775 08799 against the king 04428 of Assyria 0804, and served 05647 08804 him not.
8 He smote 05221 08689 the Philistines 06430, [even] unto Gaza 05804, and the borders 01366 thereof, from the tower 04026 of the watchmen 05341 08802 to the fenced 04013 city 05892.
9 And it came to pass in the fourth 07243 year 08141 of king 04428 Hezekiah 02396, which [was] the seventh 07637 year 08141 of Hoshea 01954 son 01121 of Elah 0425 king 04428 of Israel 03478, [that] Shalmaneser 08022 king 04428 of Assyria 0804 came up 05927 08804 against Samaria 08111, and besieged 06696 08799 it.
10 And at the end 07097 of three 07969 years 08141 they took 03920 08799 it: [even] in the sixth 08337 year 08141 of Hezekiah 02396, that [is] the ninth 08672 year 08141 of Hoshea 01954 king 04428 of Israel 03478, Samaria 08111 was taken 03920 08738.
11 And the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 did carry away 01540 08686 Israel 03478 unto Assyria 0804, and put 05148 08686 them in Halah 02477 and in Habor 02249 [by] the river 05104 of Gozan 01470, and in the cities 05892 of the Medes 04074:
12 Because they obeyed 08085 08804 not the voice 06963 of the LORD 03068 their God 0430, but transgressed 05674 08799 his covenant 01285, [and] all that Moses 04872 the servant 05650 of the LORD 03068 commanded 06680 08765, and would not hear 08085 08804 [them], nor do 06213 08804 [them].
13 Now in the fourteenth 0702 06240 year 08141 of king 04428 Hezekiah 02396 did Sennacherib 05576 king 04428 of Assyria 0804 come up 05927 08804 against all the fenced 01219 08803 cities 05892 of Judah 03063, and took 08610 08799 them.
14 And Hezekiah 02396 king 04428 of Judah 03063 sent 07971 08799 to the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 to Lachish 03923, saying 0559 08800, I have offended 02398 08804; return 07725 08798 from me: that which thou puttest 05414 08799 on me will I bear 05375 08799. And the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 appointed 07760 08799 unto Hezekiah 02396 king 04428 of Judah 03063 three 07969 hundred 03967 talents 03603 of silver 03701 and thirty 07970 talents 03603 of gold 02091.
15 And Hezekiah 02396 gave 05414 08799 [him] all the silver 03701 that was found 04672 08737 in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and in the treasures 0214 of the king's 04428 house 01004.
16 At that time 06256 did Hezekiah 02396 cut off 07112 08765 [the gold from] the doors 01817 of the temple 01964 of the LORD 03068, and [from] the pillars 0547 which Hezekiah 02396 king 04428 of Judah 03063 had overlaid 06823 08765, and gave 05414 08799 it to the king 04428 of Assyria 0804.
17 And the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 sent 07971 08799 Tartan 08661 and Rabsaris 07249 and Rabshakeh 07262 from Lachish 03923 to king 04428 Hezekiah 02396 with a great 03515 host 02426 against Jerusalem 03389. And they went up 05927 08799 and came 0935 08799 to Jerusalem 03389. And when they were come up 05927 08799, they came 0935 08799 and stood 05975 08799 by the conduit 08585 of the upper 05945 pool 01295, which [is] in the highway 04546 of the fuller's 03526 08801 field 07704.
18 And when they had called 07121 08799 to the king 04428, there came out 03318 08799 to them Eliakim 0471 the son 01121 of Hilkiah 02518, which [was] over the household 01004, and Shebna 07644 the scribe 05608 08802, and Joah 03098 the son 01121 of Asaph 0623 the recorder 02142 08688.
19 And Rabshakeh 07262 said 0559 08799 unto them, Speak 0559 08798 ye now to Hezekiah 02396, Thus saith 0559 08804 the great 01419 king 04428, the king 04428 of Assyria 0804, What confidence 0986 [is] this wherein thou trustest 0982 08804?
20 Thou sayest 0559 08804, (but [they are but] vain 08193 words 01697,) [I have] counsel 06098 and strength 01369 for the war 04421. Now on whom dost thou trust 0982 08804, that thou rebellest 04775 08804 against me?
21 Now, behold, thou trustest 0982 08804 upon the staff 04938 of this bruised 07533 08803 reed 07070, [even] upon Egypt 04714, on which if a man 0376 lean 05564 08735, it will go 0935 08804 into his hand 03709, and pierce 05344 08804 it: so [is] Pharaoh 06547 king 04428 of Egypt 04714 unto all that trust 0982 08802 on him.
22 But if ye say 0559 08799 unto me, We trust 0982 08804 in the LORD 03068 our God 0430: [is] not that he, whose high places 01116 and whose altars 04196 Hezekiah 02396 hath taken away 05493 08689, and hath said 0559 08799 to Judah 03063 and Jerusalem 03389, Ye shall worship 07812 08691 before 06440 this altar 04196 in Jerusalem 03389?
23 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges 06148 08690 to my lord 0113 the king 04428 of Assyria 0804, and I will deliver 05414 08799 thee two thousand 0505 horses 05483, if thou be able 03201 08799 on thy part to set 05414 08800 riders 07392 08802 upon them.
24 How then wilt thou turn away 07725 08686 the face 06440 of one 0259 captain 06346 of the least 06996 of my master's 0113 servants 05650, and put thy trust 0982 08799 on Egypt 04714 for chariots 07393 and for horsemen 06571?
25 Am I now come up 05927 08804 without 01107 the LORD 03068 against this place 04725 to destroy 07843 08687 it? The LORD 03068 said 0559 08804 to me, Go up 05927 08798 against this land 0776, and destroy 07843 08685 it.
26 Then said 0559 08799 Eliakim 0471 the son 01121 of Hilkiah 02518, and Shebna 07644, and Joah 03098, unto Rabshakeh 07262, Speak 01696 08761, I pray thee, to thy servants 05650 in the Syrian language 0762; for we understand 08085 08802 [it]: and talk 01696 08762 not with us in the Jews' language 03066 in the ears 0241 of the people 05971 that [are] on the wall 02346.
27 But Rabshakeh 07262 said 0559 08799 unto them, Hath my master 0113 sent 07971 08804 me to thy master 0113, and to thee, to speak 01696 08763 these words 01697? [hath he] not [sent me] to the men 0582 which sit 03427 08802 on the wall 02346, that they may eat 0398 08800 their own dung 06675 08675 02755, and drink 08354 08800 their own piss 04325 07272 08675 07890 with you?
28 Then Rabshakeh 07262 stood 05975 08799 and cried 07121 08799 with a loud 01419 voice 06963 in the Jews' language 03066, and spake 01696 08762, saying 0559 08799, Hear 08085 08798 the word 01697 of the great 01419 king 04428, the king 04428 of Assyria 0804:
29 Thus saith 0559 08804 the king 04428, Let not Hezekiah 02396 deceive 05377 08686 you: for he shall not be able 03201 08799 to deliver 05337 08687 you out of his hand 03027:
30 Neither let Hezekiah 02396 make you trust 0982 08686 in the LORD 03068, saying 0559 08800, The LORD 03068 will surely 05337 08687 deliver 05337 08686 us, and this city 05892 shall not be delivered 05414 08735 into the hand 03027 of the king 04428 of Assyria 0804.
31 Hearken 08085 08799 not to Hezekiah 02396: for thus saith 0559 08804 the king 04428 of Assyria 0804, Make 06213 08798 [an agreement] with me by a present 01293, and come out 03318 08798 to me, and [then] eat 0398 08798 ye every man 0376 of his own vine 01612, and every one 0376 of his fig tree 08384, and drink 08354 08798 ye every one 0376 the waters 04325 of his cistern 0953:
32 Until I come 0935 08800 and take you away 03947 08804 to a land 0776 like your own land 0776, a land 0776 of corn 01715 and wine 08492, a land 0776 of bread 03899 and vineyards 03754, a land 0776 of oil 03323 olive 02132 and of honey 01706, that ye may live 02421 08798, and not die 04191 08799: and hearken 08085 08799 not unto Hezekiah 02396, when he persuadeth 05496 08686 you, saying 0559 08800, The LORD 03068 will deliver 05337 08686 us.
33 Hath any 0376 of the gods 0430 of the nations 01471 delivered 05337 08689 at all 05337 08687 his land 0776 out of the hand 03027 of the king 04428 of Assyria 0804?
34 Where [are] the gods 0430 of Hamath 02574, and of Arpad 0774? where [are] the gods 0430 of Sepharvaim 05617, Hena 02012, and Ivah 05755? have they delivered 05337 08689 Samaria 08111 out of mine hand 03027?
35 Who [are] they among all the gods 0430 of the countries 0776, that have delivered 05337 08689 their country 0776 out of mine hand 03027, that the LORD 03068 should deliver 05337 08686 Jerusalem 03389 out of mine hand 03027?
36 But the people 05971 held their peace 02790 08689, and answered 06030 08804 him not a word 01697: for the king's 04428 commandment 04687 was, saying 0559 08800, Answer 06030 08799 him not.
37 Then came 0935 08799 Eliakim 0471 the son 01121 of Hilkiah 02518, which [was] over the household 01004, and Shebna 07644 the scribe 05608 08802, and Joah 03098 the son 01121 of Asaph 0623 the recorder 02142 08688, to Hezekiah 02396 with [their] clothes 0899 rent 07167 08803, and told 05046 08686 him the words 01697 of Rabshakeh 07262.
2Ki 19
1 And it came to pass, when king 04428 Hezekiah 02396 heard 08085 08800 [it], that he rent 07167 08799 his clothes 0899, and covered 03680 08691 himself with sackcloth 08242, and went 0935 08799 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
2 And he sent 07971 08799 Eliakim 0471, which [was] over the household 01004, and Shebna 07644 the scribe 05608 08802, and the elders 02205 of the priests 03548, covered 03680 08693 with sackcloth 08242, to Isaiah 03470 the prophet 05030 the son 01121 of Amoz 0531.
3 And they said 0559 08799 unto him, Thus saith 0559 08804 Hezekiah 02396, This day 03117 [is] a day 03117 of trouble 06869, and of rebuke 08433, and blasphemy 05007: for the children 01121 are come 0935 08804 to the birth 04866, and [there is] not strength 03581 to bring forth 03205 08800.
4 It may be 0194 the LORD 03068 thy God 0430 will hear 08085 08799 all the words 01697 of Rabshakeh 07262, whom the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 his master 0113 hath sent 07971 08804 to reproach 02778 08763 the living 02416 God 0430; and will reprove 03198 08689 the words 01697 which the LORD 03068 thy God 0430 hath heard 08085 08804: wherefore lift up 05375 08804 [thy] prayer 08605 for the remnant 07611 that are left 04672 08737.
5 So the servants 05650 of king 04428 Hezekiah 02396 came 0935 08799 to Isaiah 03470.
6 And Isaiah 03470 said 0559 08799 unto them, Thus shall ye say 0559 08799 to your master 0113, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, Be not afraid 03372 08799 of 06440 the words 01697 which thou hast heard 08085 08804, with which the servants 05288 of the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 have blasphemed 01442 08765 me.
7 Behold, I will send 05414 08802 a blast 07307 upon him, and he shall hear 08085 08804 a rumour 08052, and shall return 07725 08804 to his own land 0776; and I will cause him to fall 05307 08689 by the sword 02719 in his own land 0776.
8 So Rabshakeh 07262 returned 07725 08799, and found 04672 08799 the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 warring 03898 08737 against Libnah 03841: for he had heard 08085 08804 that he was departed 05265 08804 from Lachish 03923.
9 And when he heard 08085 08799 say 0559 08800 of Tirhakah 08640 king 04428 of Ethiopia 03568, Behold, he is come out 03318 08804 to fight 03898 08736 against thee: he sent 07971 08799 messengers 04397 again 07725 08799 unto Hezekiah 02396, saying 0559 08800,
10 Thus shall ye speak 0559 08799 to Hezekiah 02396 king 04428 of Judah 03063, saying 0559 08800, Let not thy God 0430 in whom thou trustest 0982 08802 deceive 05377 08686 thee, saying 0559 08800, Jerusalem 03389 shall not be delivered 05414 08735 into the hand 03027 of the king 04428 of Assyria 0804.
11 Behold, thou hast heard 08085 08804 what the kings 04428 of Assyria 0804 have done 06213 08804 to all lands 0776, by destroying them utterly 02763 08687: and shalt thou be delivered 05337 08735?
12 Have the gods 0430 of the nations 01471 delivered 05337 08689 them which my fathers 01 have destroyed 07843 08765; [as] Gozan 01470, and Haran 02771, and Rezeph 07530, and the children 01121 of Eden 05729 which [were] in Thelasar 08515?
13 Where [is] the king 04428 of Hamath 02574, and the king 04428 of Arpad 0774, and the king 04428 of the city 05892 of Sepharvaim 05617, of Hena 02012, and Ivah 05755?
14 And Hezekiah 02396 received 03947 08799 the letter 05612 of the hand 03027 of the messengers 04397, and read 07121 08799 it: and Hezekiah 02396 went up 05927 08799 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and spread 06566 08799 it before 06440 the LORD 03068.
15 And Hezekiah 02396 prayed 06419 08691 before 06440 the LORD 03068, and said 0559 08799, O LORD 03068 God 0430 of Israel 03478, which dwellest 03427 08802 [between] the cherubims 03742, thou art the God 0430, [even] thou alone, of all the kingdoms 04467 of the earth 0776; thou hast made 06213 08804 heaven 08064 and earth 0776.
16 LORD 03068, bow down 05186 08685 thine ear 0241, and hear 08085 08798: open 06491 08798, LORD 03068, thine eyes 05869, and see 07200 08798: and hear 08085 08798 the words 01697 of Sennacherib 05576, which hath sent 07971 08804 him to reproach 02778 08763 the living 02416 God 0430.
17 Of a truth 0551, LORD 03068, the kings 04428 of Assyria 0804 have destroyed 02717 08689 the nations 01471 and their lands 0776,
18 And have cast 05414 08804 their gods 0430 into the fire 0784: for they [were] no gods 0430, but the work 04639 of men's 0120 hands 03027, wood 06086 and stone 068: therefore they have destroyed 06 08762 them.
19 Now therefore, O LORD 03068 our God 0430, I beseech thee, save 03467 08685 thou us out of his hand 03027, that all the kingdoms 04467 of the earth 0776 may know 03045 08799 that thou [art] the LORD 03068 God 0430, [even] thou only.
20 Then Isaiah 03470 the son 01121 of Amoz 0531 sent 07971 08799 to Hezekiah 02396, saying 0559 08800, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068 God 0430 of Israel 03478, [That] which thou hast prayed 06419 08694 to me against Sennacherib 05576 king 04428 of Assyria 0804 I have heard 08085 08804.
21 This [is] the word 01697 that the LORD 03068 hath spoken 01696 08765 concerning him; The virgin 01330 the daughter 01323 of Zion 06726 hath despised 0959 08804 thee, [and] laughed thee to scorn 03932 08804; the daughter 01323 of Jerusalem 03389 hath shaken 05128 08689 her head 07218 at thee 0310.
22 Whom hast thou reproached 02778 08765 and blasphemed 01442 08765? and against whom hast thou exalted 07311 08689 [thy] voice 06963, and lifted up 05375 08799 thine eyes 05869 on high 04791? [even] against the Holy 06918 [One] of Israel 03478.
23 By 03027 thy messengers 04397 thou hast reproached 02778 08765 the Lord 0136, and hast said 0559 08799, With the multitude 07230 of my chariots 07393 08675 07393 I am come up 05927 08804 to the height 04791 of the mountains 02022, to the sides 03411 of Lebanon 03844, and will cut down 03772 08799 the tall 06967 cedar trees 0730 thereof, [and] the choice 04004 fir trees 01265 thereof: and I will enter 0935 08799 into the lodgings 04411 of his borders 07093, [and into] the forest 03293 of his Carmel 03760.
24 I have digged 06979 08804 and drunk 08354 08804 strange 02114 08801 waters 04325, and with the sole 03709 of my feet 06471 have I dried 02717 08686 up all the rivers 02975 of besieged places 04693.
25 Hast thou not heard 08085 08804 long ago 07350 [how] I have done 06213 08804 it, [and] of ancient 06924 times 03117 that I have formed 03335 08804 it? now have I brought 0935 08689 it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste 07582 08687 fenced 01219 08803 cities 05892 [into] ruinous 05327 08737 heaps 01530.
26 Therefore their inhabitants 03427 08802 were of small 07116 power 03027, they were dismayed 02865 08804 and confounded 0954 08799; they were [as] the grass 06212 of the field 07704, and [as] the green 03419 herb 01877, [as] the grass 02682 on the housetops 01406, and [as corn] blasted 07711 before 06440 it be grown up 07054.
27 But I know 03045 08804 thy abode 03427 08800, and thy going out 03318 08800, and thy coming in 0935 08800, and thy rage 07264 08692 against me.
28 Because thy rage 07264 08692 against me and thy tumult 07600 is come up 05927 08804 into mine ears 0241, therefore I will put 07760 08804 my hook 02397 in thy nose 0639, and my bridle 04964 in thy lips 08193, and I will turn thee back 07725 08689 by the way 01870 by which thou camest 0935 08804.
29 And this [shall be] a sign 0226 unto thee, Ye shall eat 0398 08800 this year 08141 such things as grow 05599 of themselves, and in the second 08145 year 08141 that which springeth 07823 of the same; and in the third 07992 year 08141 sow 02232 08798 ye, and reap 07114 08798, and plant 05193 08798 vineyards 03754, and eat 0398 08798 the fruits 06529 thereof.
30 And the remnant 07604 08737 that is escaped 06413 of the house 01004 of Judah 03063 shall yet again 03254 08804 take root 08328 downward 04295, and bear 06213 08804 fruit 06529 upward 04605.
31 For out of Jerusalem 03389 shall go forth 03318 08799 a remnant 07611, and they that escape 06413 out of mount 02022 Zion 06726: the zeal 07068 of the LORD 03068 [of hosts 08675 06635] shall do 06213 08799 this.
32 Therefore thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068 concerning the king 04428 of Assyria 0804, He shall not come 0935 08799 into this city 05892, nor shoot 03384 08686 an arrow 02671 there, nor come before 06923 08762 it with shield 04043, nor cast 08210 08799 a bank 05550 against it.
33 By the way 01870 that he came 0935 08799, by the same shall he return 07725 08799, and shall not come 0935 08799 into this city 05892, saith 05002 08803 the LORD 03068.
34 For I will defend 01598 08804 this city 05892, to save 03467 08687 it, for mine own sake, and for my servant 05650 David's 01732 sake.
35 And it came to pass that night 03915, that the angel 04397 of the LORD 03068 went out 03318 08799, and smote 05221 08686 in the camp 04264 of the Assyrians 0804 an hundred 03967 fourscore 08084 and five 02568 thousand 0505: and when they arose early 07925 08686 in the morning 01242, behold, they [were] all dead 04191 08801 corpses 06297.
36 So Sennacherib 05576 king 04428 of Assyria 0804 departed 05265 08799, and went 03212 08799 and returned 07725 08799, and dwelt 03427 08799 at Nineveh 05210.
37 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping 07812 08693 in the house 01004 of Nisroch 05268 his god 0430, that Adrammelech 0152 and Sharezer 08272 his sons 01121 smote 05221 08689 him with the sword 02719: and they escaped 04422 08738 into the land 0776 of Armenia 0780. And Esarhaddon 0634 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
2Ki 20
1 In those days 03117 was Hezekiah 02396 sick 02470 08804 unto death 04191 08800. And the prophet 05030 Isaiah 03470 the son 01121 of Amoz 0531 came 0935 08799 to him, and said 0559 08799 unto him, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, Set thine house 01004 in order 06680 08761; for thou shalt die 04191 08801, and not live 02421 08799.
2 Then he turned 05437 08686 his face 06440 to the wall 07023, and prayed 06419 08691 unto the LORD 03068, saying 0559 08800,
3 I beseech 0577 thee, O LORD 03068, remember 02142 08798 now how I have walked 01980 08694 before 06440 thee in truth 0571 and with a perfect 08003 heart 03824, and have done 06213 08804 [that which is] good 02896 in thy sight 05869. And Hezekiah 02396 wept 01058 08799 01065 sore 01419.
4 And it came to pass, afore Isaiah 03470 was gone out 03318 08804 into the middle 08484 court 02691 08675 05892, that the word 01697 of the LORD 03068 came to him, saying 0559 08800,
5 Turn again 07725 08798, and tell 0559 08804 Hezekiah 02396 the captain 05057 of my people 05971, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, the God 0430 of David 01732 thy father 01, I have heard 08085 08804 thy prayer 08605, I have seen 07200 08804 thy tears 01832: behold, I will heal 07495 08802 thee: on the third 07992 day 03117 thou shalt go up 05927 08799 unto the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
6 And I will add 03254 08689 unto thy days 03117 fifteen 02568 06240 years 08141; and I will deliver 05337 08686 thee and this city 05892 out of the hand 03709 of the king 04428 of Assyria 0804; and I will defend 01598 08804 this city 05892 for mine own sake, and for my servant 05650 David's 01732 sake.
7 And Isaiah 03470 said 0559 08799, Take 03947 08798 a lump 01690 of figs 08384. And they took 03947 08799 and laid 07760 08799 [it] on the boil 07822, and he recovered 02421 08799.
8 And Hezekiah 02396 said 0559 08799 unto Isaiah 03470, What [shall be] the sign 0226 that the LORD 03068 will heal 07495 08799 me, and that I shall go up 05927 08804 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068 the third 07992 day 03117?
9 And Isaiah 03470 said 0559 08799, This sign 0226 shalt thou have of the LORD 03068, that the LORD 03068 will do 06213 08799 the thing 01697 that he hath spoken 01696 08765: shall the shadow 06738 go forward 01980 08804 ten 06235 degrees 04609, or go back 07725 08799 ten 06235 degrees 04609?
10 And Hezekiah 03169 answered 0559 08799, It is a light thing 07043 08738 for the shadow 06738 to go down 05186 08800 ten 06235 degrees 04609: nay, but let the shadow 06738 return 07725 08799 backward 0322 ten 06235 degrees 04609.
11 And Isaiah 03470 the prophet 05030 cried 07121 08799 unto the LORD 03068: and he brought 07725 08686 the shadow 06738 ten 06235 degrees 04609 backward 0322, by 04609 which it had gone down 03381 08804 in the dial 04609 of Ahaz 0271.
12 At that time 06256 Berodachbaladan 01255, the son 01121 of Baladan 01081, king 04428 of Babylon 0894, sent 07971 08804 letters 05612 and a present 04503 unto Hezekiah 02396: for he had heard 08085 08804 that Hezekiah 02396 had been sick 02470 08804.
13 And Hezekiah 02396 hearkened 08085 08799 unto them, and shewed 07200 08686 them all the house 01004 of his precious things 05238, the silver 03701, and the gold 02091, and the spices 01314, and the precious 02896 ointment 08081, and [all] the house 01004 of his armour 03627, and all that was found 04672 08738 in his treasures 0214: there was nothing 01697 in his house 01004, nor in all his dominion 04475, that Hezekiah 02396 shewed 07200 08689 them not.
14 Then came 0935 08799 Isaiah 03470 the prophet 05030 unto king 04428 Hezekiah 02396, and said 0559 08799 unto him, What said 0559 08804 these men 0582? and from whence 0370 came 0935 08799 they unto thee? And Hezekiah 02396 said 0559 08799, They are come 0935 08804 from a far 07350 country 0776, [even] from Babylon 0894.
15 And he said 0559 08799, What have they seen 07200 08804 in thine house 01004? And Hezekiah 02396 answered 0559 08799, All [the things] that [are] in mine house 01004 have they seen 07200 08804: there is nothing 01697 among my treasures 0214 that I have not shewed 07200 08689 them.
16 And Isaiah 03470 said 0559 08799 unto Hezekiah 02396, Hear 08085 08798 the word 01697 of the LORD 03068.
17 Behold, the days 03117 come 0935 08802, that all that [is] in thine house 01004, and that which thy fathers 01 have laid up in store 0686 08804 unto this day 03117, shall be carried 05375 08738 into Babylon 0894: nothing 01697 shall be left 03498 08735, saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068.
18 And of thy sons 01121 that shall issue 03318 08799 from thee, which thou shalt beget 03205 08686, shall they take away 03947 08799; and they shall be eunuchs 05631 in the palace 01964 of the king 04428 of Babylon 0894.
19 Then said 0559 08799 Hezekiah 02396 unto Isaiah 03470, Good 02896 [is] the word 01697 of the LORD 03068 which thou hast spoken 01696 08765. And he said 0559 08799, [Is it] not [good], if peace 07965 and truth 0571 be in my days 03117?
20 And the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Hezekiah 02396, and all his might 01369, and how he made 06213 08804 a pool 01295, and a conduit 08585, and brought 0935 08686 water 04325 into the city 05892, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
21 And Hezekiah 02396 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01: and Manasseh 04519 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
2Ki 21
1 Manasseh 04519 [was] twelve 08147 06240 years 08141 old 01121 when he began to reign 04427 08800, and reigned 04427 08804 fifty 02572 and five 02568 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Hephzibah 02657.
2 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, after the abominations 08441 of the heathen 01471, whom the LORD 03068 cast out 03423 08689 before 06440 the children 01121 of Israel 03478.
3 For he built up 01129 08799 again 07725 08799 the high places 01116 which Hezekiah 02396 his father 01 had destroyed 06 08765; and he reared up 06965 08686 altars 04196 for Baal 01168, and made 06213 08799 a grove 0842, as did 06213 08804 Ahab 0256 king 04428 of Israel 03478; and worshipped 07812 08691 all the host 06635 of heaven 08064, and served 05647 08799 them.
4 And he built 01129 08804 altars 04196 in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, of which the LORD 03068 said 0559 08804, In Jerusalem 03389 will I put 07760 08799 my name 08034.
5 And he built 01129 08799 altars 04196 for all the host 06635 of heaven 08064 in the two 08147 courts 02691 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
6 And he made his son 01121 pass 05674 08689 through the fire 0784, and observed times 06049 08782, and used enchantments 05172 08765, and dealt 06213 08804 with familiar spirits 0178 and wizards 03049: he wrought 06213 08800 much 07235 08689 wickedness 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, to provoke [him] to anger 03707 08687.
7 And he set 07760 08799 a graven image 06459 of the grove 0842 that he had made 06213 08804 in the house 01004, of which the LORD 03068 said 0559 08804 to David 01732, and to Solomon 08010 his son 01121, In this house 01004, and in Jerusalem 03389, which I have chosen 0977 08804 out of all tribes 07626 of Israel 03478, will I put 07760 08799 my name 08034 for ever 05769:
8 Neither will I make the feet 07272 of Israel 03478 move 05110 08687 any more 03254 08686 out of the land 0127 which I gave 05414 08804 their fathers 01; only if they will observe 08104 08799 to do 06213 08800 according to all that I have commanded 06680 08765 them, and according to all the law 08451 that my servant 05650 Moses 04872 commanded 06680 08765 them.
9 But they hearkened 08085 08804 not: and Manasseh 04519 seduced 08582 08686 them to do 06213 08800 more evil 07451 than did the nations 01471 whom the LORD 03068 destroyed 08045 08689 before 06440 the children 01121 of Israel 03478.
10 And the LORD 03068 spake 01696 08762 by 03027 his servants 05650 the prophets 05030, saying 0559 08800,
11 Because Manasseh 04519 king 04428 of Judah 03063 hath done 06213 08804 these abominations 08441, [and] hath done wickedly 07489 08689 above all that the Amorites 0567 did 06213 08804, which [were] before 06440 him, and hath made Judah 03063 also to sin 02398 08686 with his idols 01544:
12 Therefore thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068 God 0430 of Israel 03478, Behold, I [am] bringing 0935 08688 [such] evil 07451 upon Jerusalem 03389 and Judah 03063, that whosoever heareth 08085 08802 of it, both 08147 his ears 0241 shall tingle 06750 08799.
13 And I will stretch 05186 08804 over Jerusalem 03389 the line 06957 of Samaria 08111, and the plummet 04949 of the house 01004 of Ahab 0256: and I will wipe 04229 08804 Jerusalem 03389 as [a man] wipeth 04229 08799 a dish 06747, wiping 04229 08804 [it], and turning 02015 08804 [it] upside down 06440.
14 And I will forsake 05203 08804 the remnant 07611 of mine inheritance 05159, and deliver 05414 08804 them into the hand 03027 of their enemies 0341 08802; and they shall become a prey 0957 and a spoil 04933 to all their enemies 0341 08802;
15 Because they have done 06213 08804 [that which was] evil 07451 in my sight 05869, and have provoked 04480 me to anger 03707 08688, since the day 03117 their fathers 01 came forth 03318 08804 out of Egypt 04714, even unto this day 03117.
16 Moreover Manasseh 04519 shed 08210 08804 innocent 05355 blood 01818 very 03966 much 07235 08687, till he had filled 04390 08765 Jerusalem 03389 from one end 06310 to another 06310; beside his sin 02403 wherewith he made Judah 03063 to sin 02398 08689, in doing 06213 08800 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068.
17 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Manasseh 04519, and all that he did 06213 08804, and his sin 02403 that he sinned 02398 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
18 And Manasseh 04519 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01, and was buried 06912 08735 in the garden 01588 of his own house 01004, in the garden 01588 of Uzza 05798: and Amon 0526 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
19 Amon 0526 [was] twenty 06242 and two 08147 years 08141 old 01121 when he began to reign 04427 08800, and he reigned 04427 08804 two 08147 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Meshullemeth 04922, the daughter 01323 of Haruz 02743 of Jotbah 03192.
20 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, as his father 01 Manasseh 04519 did 06213 08804.
21 And he walked 03212 08799 in all the way 01870 that his father 01 walked in 01980 08804, and served 05647 08799 the idols 01544 that his father 01 served 05647 08804, and worshipped 07812 08691 them:
22 And he forsook 05800 08799 the LORD 03068 God 0430 of his fathers 01, and walked 01980 08804 not in the way 01870 of the LORD 03068.
23 And the servants 05650 of Amon 0526 conspired 07194 08799 against him, and slew 04191 08686 the king 04428 in his own house 01004.
24 And the people 05971 of the land 0776 slew 05221 08686 all them that had conspired 07194 08802 against king 04428 Amon 0526; and the people 05971 of the land 0776 made Josiah 02977 his son 01121 king 04427 08686 in his stead.
25 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Amon 0526 which he did 06213 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
26 And he was buried 06912 08799 in his sepulchre 06900 in the garden 01588 of Uzza 05798: and Josiah 02977 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
2Ki 22
1 Josiah 02977 [was] eight 08083 years 08141 old 01121 when he began to reign 04427 08800, and he reigned 04427 08804 thirty 07970 and one 0259 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Jedidah 03040, the daughter 01323 of Adaiah 05718 of Boscath 01218.
2 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] right 03477 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, and walked 03212 08799 in all the way 01870 of David 01732 his father 01, and turned not aside 05493 08804 to the right hand 03225 or to the left 08040.
3 And it came to pass in the eighteenth 08083 06240 year 08141 of king 04428 Josiah 02977, [that] the king 04428 sent 07971 08804 Shaphan 08227 the son 01121 of Azaliah 0683, the son 01121 of Meshullam 04918, the scribe 05608 08802, to the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, saying 0559 08800,
4 Go up 05927 08798 to Hilkiah 02518 the high 01419 priest 03548, that he may sum 08552 08686 the silver 03701 which is brought 0935 08716 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, which the keepers 08104 08802 of the door 05592 have gathered 0622 08804 of the people 05971:
5 And let them deliver 05414 08799 it into the hand 03027 of the doers 06213 08802 of the work 04399, that have the oversight 06485 08716 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068: and let them give 05414 08799 it to the doers 06213 08802 of the work 04399 which [is] in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, to repair 02388 08763 the breaches 0919 of the house 01004,
6 Unto carpenters 02796, and builders 01129 08802, and masons 01443 08802, and to buy 07069 08800 timber 06086 and hewn 04274 stone 068 to repair 02388 08763 the house 01004.
7 Howbeit there was no reckoning made 02803 08735 with them of the money 03701 that was delivered 05414 08737 into their hand 03027, because they dealt 06213 08802 faithfully 0530.
8 And Hilkiah 02518 the high 01419 priest 03548 said 0559 08799 unto Shaphan 08227 the scribe 05608 08802, I have found 04672 08804 the book 05612 of the law 08451 in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068. And Hilkiah 02518 gave 05414 08799 the book 05612 to Shaphan 08227, and he read 07121 08799 it.
9 And Shaphan 08227 the scribe 05608 08802 came 0935 08799 to the king 04428, and brought 07725 00 the king 04428 word 01697 again 07725 08686, and said 0559 08799, Thy servants 05650 have gathered 05413 08689 the money 03701 that was found 04672 08737 in the house 01004, and have delivered 05414 08799 it into the hand 03027 of them that do 06213 08802 the work 04399, that have the oversight 06485 08716 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
10 And Shaphan 08227 the scribe 05608 08802 shewed 05046 08686 the king 04428, saying 0559 08800, Hilkiah 02518 the priest 03548 hath delivered 05414 08804 me a book 05612. And Shaphan 08227 read 07121 08799 it before 06440 the king 04428.
11 And it came to pass, when the king 04428 had heard 08085 08800 the words 01697 of the book 05612 of the law 08451, that he rent 07167 08799 his clothes 0899.
12 And the king 04428 commanded 06680 08762 Hilkiah 02518 the priest 03548, and Ahikam 0296 the son 01121 of Shaphan 08227, and Achbor 05907 the son 01121 of Michaiah 04320, and Shaphan 08227 the scribe 05608 08802, and Asahiah 06222 a servant 05650 of the king's 04428, saying 0559 08800,
13 Go 03212 08798 ye, enquire 01875 08798 of the LORD 03068 for me, and for the people 05971, and for all Judah 03063, concerning the words 01697 of this book 05612 that is found 04672 08737: for great 01419 [is] the wrath 02534 of the LORD 03068 that is kindled 03341 08738 against us, because our fathers 01 have not hearkened 08085 08804 unto the words 01697 of this book 05612, to do 06213 08800 according unto all that which is written 03789 08803 concerning us.
14 So Hilkiah 02518 the priest 03548, and Ahikam 0296, and Achbor 05907, and Shaphan 08227, and Asahiah 06222, went 03212 08799 unto Huldah 02468 the prophetess 05031, the wife 0802 of Shallum 07967 the son 01121 of Tikvah 08616, the son 01121 of Harhas 02745, keeper 08104 08802 of the wardrobe 0899; (now she dwelt 03427 08802 in Jerusalem 03389 in the college 04932;) and they communed 01696 08762 with her.
15 And she said 0559 08799 unto them, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068 God 0430 of Israel 03478, Tell 0559 08798 the man 0376 that sent 07971 08804 you to me,
16 Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068, Behold, I will bring 0935 08688 evil 07451 upon this place 04725, and upon the inhabitants 03427 08802 thereof, [even] all the words 01697 of the book 05612 which the king 04428 of Judah 03063 hath read 07121 08804:
17 Because they have forsaken 05800 08804 me, and have burned incense 06999 08762 unto other 0312 gods 0430, that they might provoke me to anger 03707 08687 with all the works 04639 of their hands 03027; therefore my wrath 02534 shall be kindled 03341 08738 against this place 04725, and shall not be quenched 03518 08799.
18 But to the king 04428 of Judah 03063 which sent 07971 08802 you to enquire 01875 08800 of the LORD 03068, thus shall ye say 0559 08799 to him, Thus saith 0559 08804 the LORD 03068 God 0430 of Israel 03478, [As touching] the words 01697 which thou hast heard 08085 08804;
19 Because thine heart 03824 was tender 07401 08804, and thou hast humbled 03665 08735 thyself before 06440 the LORD 03068, when thou heardest 08085 08800 what I spake 01696 08765 against this place 04725, and against the inhabitants 03427 08802 thereof, that they should become a desolation 08047 and a curse 07045, and hast rent 07167 08799 thy clothes 0899, and wept 01058 08799 before 06440 me; I also have heard 08085 08804 [thee], saith 05002 08803 the LORD 03068.
20 Behold therefore, I will gather 0622 08802 thee unto thy fathers 01, and thou shalt be gathered 0622 08738 into thy grave 06913 in peace 07965; and thine eyes 05869 shall not see 07200 08799 all the evil 07451 which I will bring 0935 08688 upon this place 04725. And they brought 07725 00 the king 04428 word 01697 again 07725 08686.
2Ki 23
1 And the king 04428 sent 07971 08799, and they gathered 0622 08799 unto him all the elders 02205 of Judah 03063 and of Jerusalem 03389.
2 And the king 04428 went up 05927 08799 into the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and all the men 0376 of Judah 03063 and all the inhabitants 03427 08802 of Jerusalem 03389 with him, and the priests 03548, and the prophets 05030, and all the people 05971, both small 06996 and great 01419: and he read 07121 08799 in their ears 0241 all the words 01697 of the book 05612 of the covenant 01285 which was found 04672 08737 in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
3 And the king 04428 stood 05975 08799 by a pillar 05982, and made 03772 08799 a covenant 01285 before 06440 the LORD 03068, to walk 03212 08800 after 0310 the LORD 03068, and to keep 08104 08800 his commandments 04687 and his testimonies 05715 and his statutes 02708 with all [their] heart 03820 and all [their] soul 05315, to perform 06965 08687 the words 01697 of this covenant 01285 that were written 03789 08803 in this book 05612. And all the people 05971 stood 05975 08799 to the covenant 01285.
4 And the king 04428 commanded 06680 08762 Hilkiah 02518 the high 01419 priest 03548, and the priests 03548 of the second order 04932, and the keepers 08104 08802 of the door 05592, to bring forth 03318 08687 out of the temple 01964 of the LORD 03068 all the vessels 03627 that were made 06213 08803 for Baal 01168, and for the grove 0842, and for all the host 06635 of heaven 08064: and he burned 08313 08799 them without 02351 Jerusalem 03389 in the fields 07709 of Kidron 06939, and carried 05375 08804 the ashes 06083 of them unto Bethel 01008.
5 And he put down 07673 08689 the idolatrous priests 03649, whom the kings 04428 of Judah 03063 had ordained 05414 08804 to burn incense 06999 08762 in the high places 01116 in the cities 05892 of Judah 03063, and in the places round about 04524 Jerusalem 03389; them also that burned incense 06999 08764 unto Baal 01168, to the sun 08121, and to the moon 03394, and to the planets 04208, and to all the host 06635 of heaven 08064.
6 And he brought out 03318 08686 the grove 0842 from the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, without 02351 Jerusalem 03389, unto the brook 05158 Kidron 06939, and burned 08313 08799 it at the brook 05158 Kidron 06939, and stamped [it] small 01854 08686 to powder 06083, and cast 07993 08686 the powder 06083 thereof upon the graves 06913 of the children 01121 of the people 05971.
7 And he brake down 05422 08799 the houses 01004 of the sodomites 06945, that [were] by the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, where the women 0802 wove 0707 08802 hangings 01004 for the grove 0842.
8 And he brought 0935 08686 all the priests 03548 out of the cities 05892 of Judah 03063, and defiled 02930 08762 the high places 01116 where the priests 03548 had burned incense 06999 08765, from Geba 01387 to Beersheba 0884, and brake down 05422 08804 the high places 01116 of the gates 08179 that [were] in the entering in 06607 of the gate 08179 of Joshua 03091 the governor 08269 of the city 05892, which [were] on a man's 0376 left hand 08040 at the gate 08179 of the city 05892.
9 Nevertheless the priests 03548 of the high places 01116 came not up 05927 08799 to the altar 04196 of the LORD 03068 in Jerusalem 03389, but they did eat 0398 08804 of the unleavened bread 04682 among 08432 their brethren 0251.
10 And he defiled 02930 08765 Topheth 08612, which [is] in the valley 01516 of the children 01121 08675 01121 of Hinnom 02011, that no man 0376 might make his son 01121 or his daughter 01323 to pass through 05674 08687 the fire 0784 to Molech 04432.
11 And he took away 07673 08686 the horses 05483 that the kings 04428 of Judah 03063 had given 05414 08804 to the sun 08121, at the entering in 0935 08800 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, by the chamber 03957 of Nathanmelech 05419 the chamberlain 05631, which [was] in the suburbs 06503, and burned 08313 08804 the chariots 04818 of the sun 08121 with fire 0784.
12 And the altars 04196 that [were] on the top 01406 of the upper chamber 05944 of Ahaz 0271, which the kings 04428 of Judah 03063 had made 06213 08804, and the altars 04196 which Manasseh 04519 had made 06213 08804 in the two 08147 courts 02691 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, did the king 04428 beat down 05422 08804, and brake [them] down 07323 08799 from thence, and cast 07993 08689 the dust 06083 of them into the brook 05158 Kidron 06939.
13 And the high places 01116 that [were] before 06440 Jerusalem 03389, which [were] on the right hand 03225 of the mount 02022 of corruption 04889, which Solomon 08010 the king 04428 of Israel 03478 had builded 01129 08804 for Ashtoreth 06253 the abomination 08251 of the Zidonians 06722, and for Chemosh 03645 the abomination 08251 of the Moabites 04124, and for Milcom 04445 the abomination 08441 of the children 01121 of Ammon 05983, did the king 04428 defile 02930 08765.
14 And he brake in pieces 07665 08765 the images 04676, and cut down 03772 08799 the groves 0842, and filled 04390 08762 their places 04725 with the bones 06106 of men 0120.
15 Moreover the altar 04196 that [was] at Bethel 01008, [and] the high place 01116 which Jeroboam 03379 the son 01121 of Nebat 05028, who made Israel 03478 to sin 02398 08689, had made 06213 08804, both that altar 04196 and the high place 01116 he brake down 05422 08804, and burned 08313 08799 the high place 01116, [and] stamped 01854 08689 [it] small to powder 06083, and burned 08313 08804 the grove 0842.
16 And as Josiah 02977 turned 06437 08799 himself, he spied 07200 08799 the sepulchres 06913 that [were] there in the mount 02022, and sent 07971 08799, and took 03947 08799 the bones 06106 out of the sepulchres 06913, and burned 08313 08799 [them] upon the altar 04196, and polluted 02930 08762 it, according to the word 01697 of the LORD 03068 which the man 0376 of God 0430 proclaimed 07121 08804, who proclaimed 07121 08804 these words 01697.
17 Then he said 0559 08799, What title 06725 [is] that 01975 that I see 07200 08802? And the men 0582 of the city 05892 told 0559 08799 him, [It is] the sepulchre 06913 of the man 0376 of God 0430, which came 0935 08804 from Judah 03063, and proclaimed 07121 08799 these things 01697 that thou hast done 06213 08804 against the altar 04196 of Bethel 01008.
18 And he said 0559 08799, Let him alone 03240 08685; let no man 0376 move 05128 08686 his bones 06106. So they let his bones 06106 alone 04422 08762, with the bones 06106 of the prophet 05030 that came out 0935 08804 of Samaria 08111.
19 And all the houses 01004 also of the high places 01116 that [were] in the cities 05892 of Samaria 08111, which the kings 04428 of Israel 03478 had made 06213 08804 to provoke [the LORD] to anger 03707 08687, Josiah 02977 took away 05493 08689, and did 06213 08799 to them according to all the acts 04639 that he had done 06213 08804 in Bethel 01008.
20 And he slew 02076 08799 all the priests 03548 of the high places 01116 that [were] there upon the altars 04196, and burned 08313 08799 men's 0120 bones 06106 upon them, and returned 07725 08799 to Jerusalem 03389.
21 And the king 04428 commanded 06680 08762 all the people 05971, saying 0559 08800, Keep 06213 08798 the passover 06453 unto the LORD 03068 your God 0430, as [it is] written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of this covenant 01285.
22 Surely there was not holden 06213 08738 such a passover 06453 from the days 03117 of the judges 08199 08802 that judged 08199 08804 Israel 03478, nor in all the days 03117 of the kings 04428 of Israel 03478, nor of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063;
23 But in the eighteenth 08083 06240 year 08141 of king 04428 Josiah 02977, [wherein] this passover 06453 was holden 06213 08738 to the LORD 03068 in Jerusalem 03389.
24 Moreover the [workers with] familiar spirits 0178, and the wizards 03049, and the images 08655, and the idols 01544, and all the abominations 08251 that were spied 07200 08738 in the land 0776 of Judah 03063 and in Jerusalem 03389, did Josiah 02977 put away 01197 08765, that he might perform 06965 08687 the words 01697 of the law 08451 which were written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 that Hilkiah 02518 the priest 03548 found 04672 08804 in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068.
25 And like unto him was there no king 04428 before 06440 him, that turned 07725 08804 to the LORD 03068 with all his heart 03824, and with all his soul 05315, and with all his might 03966, according to all the law 08451 of Moses 04872; neither after 0310 him arose 06965 08804 there [any] like him.
26 Notwithstanding the LORD 03068 turned 07725 08804 not from the fierceness 02740 of his great 01419 wrath 0639, wherewith his anger 0639 was kindled 02734 08804 against Judah 03063, because of all the provocations 03708 that Manasseh 04519 had provoked 03707 08689 him withal.
27 And the LORD 03068 said 0559 08799, I will remove 05493 08686 Judah 03063 also out of my sight 06440, as I have removed 05493 08689 Israel 03478, and will cast off 03988 08804 this city 05892 Jerusalem 03389 which I have chosen 0977 08804, and the house 01004 of which I said 0559 08804, My name 08034 shall be there.
28 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Josiah 02977, and all that he did 06213 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
29 In his days 03117 Pharaohnechoh 06549 king 04428 of Egypt 04714 went up 05927 08804 against the king 04428 of Assyria 0804 to the river 05104 Euphrates 06578: and king 04428 Josiah 02977 went 03212 08799 against 07125 08800 him; and he slew 04191 08686 him at Megiddo 04023, when he had seen 07200 08800 him.
30 And his servants 05650 carried him in a chariot 07392 08686 dead 04191 08801 from Megiddo 04023, and brought 0935 08686 him to Jerusalem 03389, and buried 06912 08799 him in his own sepulchre 06900. And the people 05971 of the land 0776 took 03947 08799 Jehoahaz 03059 the son 01121 of Josiah 02977, and anointed 04886 08799 him, and made him king 04427 08686 in his father's 01 stead.
31 Jehoahaz 03059 [was] twenty 06242 and three 07969 years 08141 old 01121 when he began to reign 04427 08800; and he reigned 04427 08804 three 07969 months 02320 in Jerusalem 03389. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Hamutal 02537, the daughter 01323 of Jeremiah 03414 of Libnah 03841.
32 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, according to all that his fathers 01 had done 06213 08804.
33 And Pharaohnechoh 06549 put him in bands 0631 08799 at Riblah 07247 in the land 0776 of Hamath 02574, that he might not reign 04427 08800 in Jerusalem 03389; and put 05414 08799 the land 0776 to a tribute 06066 of an hundred 03967 talents 03603 of silver 03701, and a talent 03603 of gold 02091.
34 And Pharaohnechoh 06549 made Eliakim 0471 the son 01121 of Josiah 02977 king 04427 08686 in the room of Josiah 02977 his father 01, and turned 05437 08686 his name 08034 to Jehoiakim 03079, and took 03947 00 Jehoahaz 03059 away 03947 08804: and he came 0935 08799 to Egypt 04714, and died 04191 08799 there.
35 And Jehoiakim 03079 gave 05414 08804 the silver 03701 and the gold 02091 to Pharaoh 06547; but he taxed 06186 08689 the land 0776 to give 05414 08800 the money 03701 according to the commandment 06310 of Pharaoh 06547: he exacted 05065 08804 the silver 03701 and the gold 02091 of the people 05971 of the land 0776, of every one 0376 according to his taxation 06187, to give 05414 08800 [it] unto Pharaohnechoh 06549.
36 Jehoiakim 03079 [was] twenty 06242 and five 02568 years 08141 old 01121 when he began to reign 04427 08800; and he reigned 04427 08804 eleven 0259 06240 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Zebudah 02080, the daughter 01323 of Pedaiah 06305 of Rumah 07316.
37 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, according to all that his fathers 01 had done 06213 08804.
2Ki 24
1 In his days 03117 Nebuchadnezzar 05019 king 04428 of Babylon 0894 came up 05927 08804, and Jehoiakim 03079 became his servant 05650 three 07969 years 08141: then he turned 07725 08799 and rebelled 04775 08799 against him.
2 And the LORD 03068 sent 07971 08762 against him bands 01416 of the Chaldees 03778, and bands 01416 of the Syrians 0758, and bands 01416 of the Moabites 04124, and bands 01416 of the children 01121 of Ammon 05983, and sent 07971 08762 them against Judah 03063 to destroy 06 08687 it, according to the word 01697 of the LORD 03068, which he spake 01696 08765 by 03027 his servants 05650 the prophets 05030.
3 Surely at the commandment 06310 of the LORD 03068 came [this] upon Judah 03063, to remove 05493 08687 [them] out of his sight 06440, for the sins 02403 of Manasseh 04519, according to all that he did 06213 08804;
4 And also for the innocent 05355 blood 01818 that he shed 08210 08804: for he filled 04390 08762 Jerusalem 03389 with innocent 05355 blood 01818; which the LORD 03068 would 014 08804 not pardon 05545 08800.
5 Now the rest 03499 of the acts 01697 of Jehoiakim 03079, and all that he did 06213 08804, [are] they not written 03789 08803 in the book 05612 of the chronicles 01697 03117 of the kings 04428 of Judah 03063?
6 So Jehoiakim 03079 slept 07901 08799 with his fathers 01: and Jehoiachin 03078 his son 01121 reigned 04427 08799 in his stead.
7 And the king 04428 of Egypt 04714 came 03318 08800 not again 03254 08689 any more out of his land 0776: for the king 04428 of Babylon 0894 had taken 03947 08804 from the river 05158 of Egypt 04714 unto the river 05104 Euphrates 06578 all that pertained to the king 04428 of Egypt 04714.
8 Jehoiachin 03078 [was] eighteen 08083 06240 years 08141 old 01121 when he began to reign 04427 08800, and he reigned 04427 08804 in Jerusalem 03389 three 07969 months 02320. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Nehushta 05179, the daughter 01323 of Elnathan 0494 of Jerusalem 03389.
9 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, according to all that his father 01 had done 06213 08804.
10 At that time 06256 the servants 05650 of Nebuchadnezzar 05019 king 04428 of Babylon 0894 came up 05927 08804 against Jerusalem 03389, and the city 05892 was besieged 0935 08799 04692.
11 And Nebuchadnezzar 05019 king 04428 of Babylon 0894 came 0935 08799 against the city 05892, and his servants 05650 did besiege 06696 08802 it.
12 And Jehoiachin 03078 the king 04428 of Judah 03063 went out 03318 08799 to the king 04428 of Babylon 0894, he, and his mother 0517, and his servants 05650, and his princes 08269, and his officers 05631: and the king 04428 of Babylon 0894 took 03947 08799 him in the eighth 08083 year 08141 of his reign 04427 08800.
13 And he carried out 03318 08686 thence all the treasures 0214 of the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and the treasures 0214 of the king's 04428 house 01004, and cut in pieces 07112 08762 all the vessels 03627 of gold 02091 which Solomon 08010 king 04428 of Israel 03478 had made 06213 08804 in the temple 01964 of the LORD 03068, as the LORD 03068 had said 01696 08765.
14 And he carried away 01540 08689 all Jerusalem 03389, and all the princes 08269, and all the mighty men 01368 of valour 02428, [even] ten 06235 thousand 0505 captives 01540 08802, and all the craftsmen 02796 and smiths 04525: none remained 07604 08738, save 02108 the poorest sort 01803 of the people 05971 of the land 0776.
15 And he carried away 01540 08686 Jehoiachin 03078 to Babylon 0894, and the king's 04428 mother 0517, and the king's 04428 wives 0802, and his officers 05631, and the mighty 0352 08675 0193 of the land 0776, [those] carried 03212 08689 he into captivity 01473 from Jerusalem 03389 to Babylon 0894.
16 And all the men 0582 of might 02428, [even] seven 07651 thousand 0505, and craftsmen 02796 and smiths 04525 a thousand 0505, all [that were] strong 01368 [and] apt 06213 08802 for war 04421, even them the king 04428 of Babylon 0894 brought 0935 08686 captive 01473 to Babylon 0894.
17 And the king 04428 of Babylon 0894 made Mattaniah 04983 his father's brother 01730 king 04427 08686 in his stead, and changed 05437 08686 his name 08034 to Zedekiah 06667.
18 Zedekiah 06667 [was] twenty 06242 and one 0259 years 08141 old 01121 when he began to reign 04427 08800, and he reigned 04427 08804 eleven 0259 06240 years 08141 in Jerusalem 03389. And his mother's 0517 name 08034 [was] Hamutal 02537, the daughter 01323 of Jeremiah 03414 of Libnah 03841.
19 And he did 06213 08799 [that which was] evil 07451 in the sight 05869 of the LORD 03068, according to all that Jehoiakim 03079 had done 06213 08804.
20 For through the anger 0639 of the LORD 03068 it came to pass in Jerusalem 03389 and Judah 03063, until he had cast them out 07993 08689 from his presence 06440, that Zedekiah 06667 rebelled 04775 08799 against the king 04428 of Babylon 0894.
2Ki 25
1 And it came to pass in the ninth 08671 year 08141 of his reign 04427 08800, in the tenth 06224 month 02320, in the tenth 06218 [day] of the month 02320, [that] Nebuchadnezzar 05019 king 04428 of Babylon 0894 came 0935 08804, he, and all his host 02428, against Jerusalem 03389, and pitched 02583 08799 against it; and they built 01129 08799 forts 01785 against it round about 05439.
2 And the city 05892 was besieged 0935 08799 04692 unto the eleventh 06249 06240 year 08141 of king 04428 Zedekiah 06667.
3 And on the ninth 08672 [day] of the [fourth] month 02320 the famine 07458 prevailed 02388 08799 in the city 05892, and there was no bread 03899 for the people 05971 of the land 0776.
4 And the city 05892 was broken up 01234 08735, and all the men 0582 of war 04421 [fled] by night 03915 by the way 01870 of the gate 08179 between two walls 02346, which [is] by the king's 04428 garden 01588: (now the Chaldees 03778 [were] against the city 05892 round about 05439:) and [the king] went 03212 08799 the way 01870 toward the plain 06160.
5 And the army 02428 of the Chaldees 03778 pursued 07291 08799 after 0310 the king 04428, and overtook 05381 08686 him in the plains 06160 of Jericho 03405: and all his army 02428 were scattered 06327 08738 from him.
6 So they took 08610 08799 the king 04428, and brought him up 05927 08686 to the king 04428 of Babylon 0894 to Riblah 07247; and they gave 01696 08762 judgment 04941 upon him.
7 And they slew 07819 08804 the sons 01121 of Zedekiah 06667 before his eyes 05869, and put out 05786 08765 the eyes 05869 of Zedekiah 06667, and bound 0631 08799 him with fetters 05178 of brass 05178, and carried 0935 08686 him to Babylon 0894.
8 And in the fifth 02549 month 02320, on the seventh 07651 [day] of the month 02320, which [is] the nineteenth 08672 06240 08141 year 08141 of king 04428 Nebuchadnezzar 05019 king 04428 of Babylon 0894, came 0935 08804 Nebuzaradan 05018, captain 07227 of the guard 02876, a servant 05650 of the king 04428 of Babylon 0894, unto Jerusalem 03389:
9 And he burnt 08313 08799 the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and the king's 04428 house 01004, and all the houses 01004 of Jerusalem 03389, and every great 01419 [man's] house 01004 burnt 08313 08804 he with fire 0784.
10 And all the army 02428 of the Chaldees 03778, that [were with] the captain 07227 of the guard 02876, brake down 05422 08804 the walls 02346 of Jerusalem 03389 round about 05439.
11 Now the rest 03499 of the people 05971 [that were] left 07604 08737 in the city 05892, and the fugitives 05307 08802 that fell away 05307 08804 to the king 04428 of Babylon 0894, with the remnant 03499 of the multitude 01995, did Nebuzaradan 05018 the captain 07227 of the guard 02876 carry away 01540 08689.
12 But the captain 07227 of the guard 02876 left 07604 08689 of the poor 01803 of the land 0776 [to be] vinedressers 03755 and husbandmen 03009 08802 08675 01461 08801.
13 And the pillars 05982 of brass 05178 that [were] in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, and the bases 04350, and the brasen 05178 sea 03220 that [was] in the house 01004 of the LORD 03068, did the Chaldees 03778 break in pieces 07665 08765, and carried 05375 08799 the brass 05178 of them to Babylon 0894.
14 And the pots 05518, and the shovels 03257, and the snuffers 04212, and the spoons 03709, and all the vessels 03627 of brass 05178 wherewith they ministered 08334 08762, took they away 03947 08804.
15 And the firepans 04289, and the bowls 04219, [and] such things as [were] of gold 02091, [in] gold 02091, and of silver 03701, [in] silver 03701, the captain 07227 of the guard 02876 took away 03947 08804.
16 The two 08147 pillars 05982, one 0259 sea 03220, and the bases 04350 which Solomon 08010 had made 06213 08804 for the house 01004 of the LORD 03068; the brass 05178 of all these vessels 03627 was without 03808 weight 04948.
17 The height 06967 of the one 0259 pillar 05982 [was] eighteen 08083 06240 cubits 0520, and the chapiter 03805 upon it [was] brass 05178: and the height 06967 of the chapiter 03805 three 07969 cubits 0520; and the wreathen work 07639, and pomegranates 07416 upon the chapiter 03805 round about 05439, all of brass 05178: and like unto these had the second 08145 pillar 05982 with wreathen work 07639.
18 And the captain 07227 of the guard 02876 took 03947 08799 Seraiah 08304 the chief 07218 priest 03548, and Zephaniah 06846 the second 04932 priest 03548, and the three 07969 keepers 08104 08802 of the door 05592:
19 And out of the city 05892 he took 03947 08804 an 0259 officer 05631 that was set 06496 over the men 0582 of war 04421, and five 02568 men 0582 of them that were 07200 08802 in the king's 04428 presence 06440, which were found 04672 08738 in the city 05892, and the principal 08269 scribe 05608 08802 of the host 06635, which mustered 06633 08688 the people 05971 of the land 0776, and threescore 08346 men 0376 of the people 05971 of the land 0776 [that were] found 04672 08737 in the city 05892:
20 And Nebuzaradan 05018 captain 07227 of the guard 02876 took 03947 08799 these, and brought 03212 08686 them to the king 04428 of Babylon 0894 to Riblah 07247:
21 And the king 04428 of Babylon 0894 smote 05221 08686 them, and slew 04191 08686 them at Riblah 07247 in the land 0776 of Hamath 02574. So Judah 03063 was carried away 01540 08799 out of their land 0127.
22 And [as for] the people 05971 that remained 07604 08737 in the land 0776 of Judah 03063, whom Nebuchadnezzar 05019 king 04428 of Babylon 0894 had left 07604 08689, even over them he made Gedaliah 01436 the son 01121 of Ahikam 0296, the son 01121 of Shaphan 08227, ruler 06485 08686.
23 And when all the captains 08269 of the armies 02428, they and their men 0582, heard 08085 08799 that the king 04428 of Babylon 0894 had made Gedaliah 01436 governor 06485 08689, there came 0935 08799 to Gedaliah 01436 to Mizpah 04709, even Ishmael 03458 the son 01121 of Nethaniah 05418, and Johanan 03110 the son 01121 of Careah 07143, and Seraiah 08304 the son 01121 of Tanhumeth 08576 the Netophathite 05200, and Jaazaniah 02970 the son 01121 of a Maachathite 04602, they and their men 0582.
24 And Gedaliah 01436 sware 07650 08735 to them, and to their men 0582, and said 0559 08799 unto them, Fear 03372 08799 not to be the servants 05650 of the Chaldees 03778: dwell 03427 08798 in the land 0776, and serve 05647 08798 the king 04428 of Babylon 0894; and it shall be well 03190 08799 with you.
25 But it came to pass in the seventh 07637 month 02320, that Ishmael 03458 the son 01121 of Nethaniah 05418, the son 01121 of Elishama 0476, of the seed 02233 royal 04410, came 0935 08804, and ten 06235 men 0582 with him, and smote 05221 08686 Gedaliah 01436, that he died 04191 08799, and the Jews 03064 and the Chaldees 03778 that were with him at Mizpah 04709.
26 And all the people 05971, both small 06996 and great 01419, and the captains 08269 of the armies 02428, arose 06965 08799, and came 0935 08799 to Egypt 04714: for they were afraid 03372 08804 of 06440 the Chaldees 03778.
27 And it came to pass in the seven 07651 and thirtieth 07970 year 08141 of the captivity 01546 of Jehoiachin 03078 king 04428 of Judah 03063, in the twelfth 08147 06240 month 02320, on the seven 07651 and twentieth 06242 [day] of the month 02320, [that] Evilmerodach 0192 king 04428 of Babylon 0894 in the year 08141 that he began to reign 04427 08800 did lift up 05375 08804 the head 07218 of Jehoiachin 03078 king 04428 of Judah 03063 out of prison 01004 03608;
28 And he spake 01696 08762 kindly 02896 to him, and set 05414 08799 his throne 03678 above the throne 03678 of the kings 04428 that [were] with him in Babylon 0894;
29 And changed 08132 08765 his prison 03608 garments 0899: and he did eat 0398 08804 bread 03899 continually 08548 before 06440 him all the days 03117 of his life 02416.
30 And his allowance 0737 [was] a continual 08548 allowance 0737 given 05414 08738 him of the king 04428, a daily 03117 03117 rate 01697 for every day 03117, all the days 03117 of his life 02416.
