2 Kings 2:16-25

And they said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Behold now, there be
<03426>

with thy servants
<05650>

fifty
<02572>

strong
<02428>

men
<01121> <0582>_;

let them go
<03212> (8799)_,

we pray thee, and seek
<01245> (8762)

thy master
<0113>_:

lest peradventure the Spirit
<07307>

of the LORD
<03068>

hath taken him up
<05375> (8804)_,

and cast
<07993> (8686)

him upon some
<0259>

mountain
<02022>_,

or into some
<0259>

valley
<01516>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Ye shall not send
<07971> (8799)_.

{strong...: Heb. sons of strength} {some mountain: Heb. one of the mountains}

And when they urged
<06484> (8799)

him till he was ashamed
<0954> (8800)_,

he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Send
<07971> (8798)_.

They sent
<07971> (8799)

therefore fifty
<02572>

men
<0376>_;

and they sought
<01245> (8762)

three
<07969>

days
<03117>_,

but found
<04672> (8804)

him not.

And when they came again
<07725> (8799)

to him, (for he tarried
<03427> (8802)

at Jericho
<03405>,)

he said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Did I not say
<0559> (8804)

unto you, Go
<03212> (8799)

not?

And the men
<0582>

of the city
<05892>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Elisha
<0477>_,

Behold, I pray thee, the situation
<04186>

of this city
<05892>

[is] pleasant
<02896>_,

as my lord
<0113>

seeth
<07200> (8802)_:

but the water
<04325>

[is] naught
<07451>_,

and the ground
<0776>

barren
<07921> (8764)_.

{barren: Heb. causing to miscarry}

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Bring
<03947> (8798)

me a new
<02319>

cruse
<06746>_,

and put
<07760> (8798)

salt
<04417>

therein. And they brought
<03947> (8799)

[it] to him.

And he went forth
<03318> (8799)

unto the spring
<04161>

of the waters
<04325>_,

and cast
<07993> (8686)

the salt
<04417>

in there, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

I have healed
<07495> (8765)

these waters
<04325>_;

there shall not be from thence any more death
<04194>

or barren
<07921> (8764)

[land].

So the waters
<04325>

were healed
<07495> (8735)

unto this day
<03117>_,

according to the saying
<01697>

of Elisha
<0477>

which he spake
<01696> (8765)_.

And he went up
<05927> (8799)

from thence unto Bethel
<01008>_:

and as he was going up
<05927> (8802)

by the way
<01870>_,

there came forth
<03318> (8804)

little
<06996>

children
<05288>

out of the city
<05892>_,

and mocked
<07046> (8691)

him, and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Go up
<05927> (8798)_,

thou bald head
<07142>_;

go up
<05927> (8798)_,

thou bald head
<07142>_.

And he turned
<06437> (8799)

back
<0310>_,

and looked
<07200> (8799)

on them, and cursed
<07043> (8762)

them in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

And there came forth
<03318> (8799)

two
<08147>

she bears
<01677>

out of the wood
<03293>_,

and tare
<01234> (8762)

forty
<0705>

and two
<08147>

children
<03206>

of them.

And he went
<03212> (8799)

from thence to mount
<02022>

Carmel
<03760>_,

and from thence he returned
<07725> (8804)

to Samaria
<08111>_.
