1 # Then spake <01696> (8765) Elisha <0477> unto the woman <0802>, whose son <01121> he had restored to life <02421> (8689), saying <0559> (8800), Arise <06965> (8798), and go <03212> (8798) thou and thine household <01004>, and sojourn <01481> (8798) wheresoever <0834> thou canst sojourn <01481> (8799): for the LORD <03068> hath called <07121> (8804) for a famine <07458>; and it shall also come <0935> (8804) upon the land <0776> seven <07651> years <08141>.
2 And the woman <0802> arose <06965> (8799), and did <06213> (8799) after the saying <01697> of the man <0376> of God <0430>: and she went <03212> (8799) with her household <01004>, and sojourned <01481> (8799) in the land <0776> of the Philistines <06430> seven <07651> years <08141>.
3 And it came to pass at the seven <07651> years <08141>' end <07097>, that the woman <0802> returned <07725> (8799) out of the land <0776> of the Philistines <06430>: and she went forth <03318> (8799) to cry <06817> (8800) unto the king <04428> for her house <01004> and for her land <07704>.
4 And the king <04428> talked <01696> (8764) with Gehazi <01522> the servant <05288> of the man <0376> of God <0430>, saying <0559> (8800), Tell <05608> (8761) me, I pray thee, all the great things <01419> that Elisha <0477> hath done <06213> (8804).
5 And it came to pass, as he was telling <05608> (8764) the king <04428> how he had restored <02421> <00> a dead body <04191> (8801) to life <02421> (8689), that, behold, the woman <0802>, whose son <01121> he had restored to life <02421> (8689), cried <06817> (8802) to the king <04428> for her house <01004> and for her land <07704>. And Gehazi <01522> said <0559> (8799), My lord <0113>, O king <04428>, this is the woman <0802>, and this is her son <01121> , whom Elisha <0477> restored to life <02421> (8689).
6 And when the king <04428> asked <07592> (8799) the woman <0802>, she told <05608> (8762) him. So the king <04428> appointed <05414> (8799) unto her a certain <0259> officer <05631>, saying <0559> (8800), Restore <07725> (8685) all that was hers, and all the fruits <08393> of the field <07704> since the day <03117> that she left <05800> (8800) the land <0776>, even until now.
7 # And Elisha <0477> came <0935> (8799) to Damascus <01834>; and Benhadad <01130> the king <04428> of Syria <0758> was sick <02470> (8802); and it was told <05046> (8714) him, saying <0559> (8800), The man <0376> of God <0430> is come <0935> (8804) hither <02008>.
8 And the king <04428> said <0559> (8799) unto Hazael <02371>, Take <03947> (8798) a present <04503> in thine hand <03027>, and go <03212> (8798), meet <07125> (8800) the man <0376> of God <0430>, and enquire <01875> (8804) of the LORD <03068> by him, saying <0559> (8800), Shall I recover <02421> (8799) of this disease <02483>?
9 So Hazael <02371> went <03212> (8799) to meet <07125> (8800) him, and took <03947> (8799) a present <04503> with him <03027>, even of every good thing <02898> of Damascus <01834>, forty <0705> camels <01581>' burden <04853>, and came <0935> (8799) and stood <05975> (8799) before <06440> him, and said <0559> (8799) , Thy son <01121> Benhadad <01130> king <04428> of Syria <0758> hath sent <07971> (8804) me to thee, saying <0559> (8800), Shall I recover <02421> (8799) of this disease <02483>?
10 And Elisha <0477> said <0559> (8799) unto him, Go <03212> (8798), say <0559> (8798) unto him, Thou mayest certainly <02421> (8800) recover <02421> (8799): howbeit the LORD <03068> hath shewed <07200> (8689) me that he shall surely <04191> (8800) die <04191> (8799).
11 And he settled <05975> (8686) his countenance <06440> stedfastly <07760> (8799), until he was ashamed <0954> (8800): and the man <0376> of God <0430> wept <01058> (8799).
12 And Hazael <02371> said <0559> (8799), Why weepeth <01058> (8802) my lord <0113>? And he answered <0559> (8799), Because I know <03045> (8804) the evil <07451> that thou wilt do <06213> (8799) unto the children <01121> of Israel <03478>: their strong holds <04013> wilt thou set <07971> (8762) on fire <0784>, and their young men <0970> wilt thou slay <02026> (8799) with the sword <02719>, and wilt dash <07376> (8762) their children <05768>, and rip up <01234> (8762) their women with child <02030>.
13 And Hazael <02371> said <0559> (8799), But what, is thy servant <05650> a dog <03611>, that he should do <06213> (8799) this great <01419> thing <01697>? And Elisha <0477> answered <0559> (8799), The LORD <03068> hath shewed <07200> (8689) me that thou shalt be king <04428> over Syria <0758>.
14 So he departed <03212> (8799) from Elisha <0477>, and came <0935> (8799) to his master <0113>; who said <0559> (8799) to him, What said <0559> (8804) Elisha <0477> to thee? And he answered <0559> (8799), He told <0559> (8804) me that thou shouldest surely <02421> (8800) recover <02421> (8799).
15 And it came to pass on the morrow <04283>, that he took <03947> (8799) a thick cloth <04346>, and dipped <02881> (8799) it in water <04325>, and spread <06566> (8799) it on his face <06440>, so that he died <04191> (8799): and Hazael <02371> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
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> (8804).
17 Thirty <07970> and two <08147> years <08141> old <01121> was he when he began to reign <04427> (8800) ; and he reigned <04427> (8804) eight <08083> years <08141> in Jerusalem <03389>.
18 And he walked <03212> (8799) in the way <01870> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>, as did <06213> (8804) the house <01004> of Ahab <0256>: for the daughter <01323> of Ahab <0256> was his wife <0802>: and he did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>.
19 Yet the LORD <03068> would <014> (8804) not destroy <07843> (8687) Judah <03063> for David <01732> his servant's <05650> sake, as he promised <0559> (8804) him to give <05414> (8800) him alway <03117> a light <05216>, and to his children <01121>.
20 In his days <03117> Edom <0123> revolted <06586> (8804) from under the hand <03027> of Judah <03063> , and made <04427> (8686) a king <04428> over themselves.
21 So Joram <03141> went over <05674> (8799) to Zair <06811>, and all the chariots <07393> with him: and he rose <06965> (8804) by night <03915>, and smote <05221> (8686) the Edomites <0123> which compassed him about <05437> (8802), and the captains <08269> of the chariots <07393>: and the people <05971> fled <05127> (8799) into their tents <0168> .
22 Yet Edom <0123> revolted <06586> (8799) from under the hand <03027> of Judah <03063> unto this day <03117> . Then Libnah <03841> revolted <06586> (8799) at the same <01931> time <06256>.
23 And the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Joram <03141>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063> ?
24 And Joram <03141> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) with his fathers <01> in the city <05892> of David <01732>: and Ahaziah <0274> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
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> (8804).
26 Two <08147> and twenty <06242> years <08141> old <01121> was Ahaziah <0274> when he began to reign <04427> (8800); and he reigned <04427> (8804) one <0259> year <08141> in Jerusalem <03389>. And his mother's <0517> name <08034> was Athaliah <06271>, the daughter <01323> of Omri <06018> king <04428> of Israel <03478>.
27 And he walked <03212> (8799) in the way <01870> of the house <01004> of Ahab <0256>, and did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, as did the house <01004> of Ahab <0256>: for he was the son in law <02860> of the house <01004> of Ahab <0256>.
28 And he went <03212> (8799) with Joram <03141> the son <01121> of Ahab <0256> to the war <04421> against Hazael <02371> king <04428> of Syria <0758> in Ramothgilead <07433> <01568>; and the Syrians <0761> wounded <05221> (8686) Joram <03141>.
29 And king <04428> Joram <03141> went back <07725> (8799) to be healed <07495> (8692) in Jezreel <03157> of the wounds <04347> which the Syrians <0761> had given <05221> (8686) him at Ramah <07414>, when he fought <03898> (8736) against Hazael <02371> king <04428> of Syria <0758>. And Ahaziah <0274> the son <01121> of Jehoram <03088> king <04428> of Judah <03063> went down <03381> (8804) to see <07200> (8800) Joram <03141> the son <01121> of Ahab <0256> in Jezreel <03157>, because he was sick <02470> (8802).
