Now the rest

And he was buried
<06912> (8799)

Go up
<05927> (8798)

the silver
<03701>

which is brought
<0935> (8716)

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which the keepers
<08104> (8802)

of the door
<05592>

have gathered
<0622> (8804)

of the people
<05971>_:

{door: Heb. threshold}

22:5

And let them deliver
<05414> (8799)

it into the hand
<03027>

of the doers
<06213> (8802)

of the work
<04399>_,

that have the oversight
<06485> (8716)

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

and let them give
<05414> (8799)

it to the doers
<06213> (8802)

of the work
<04399>

which [is] in the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

22:6

Unto carpenters
<02796>_,

<06086>

and hewn
<04274>

<068>

<02803> (8735)

with them of the money
<03701>

that was delivered
<05414> (8737)

into their hand
<03027>_,

because they dealt
<06213> (8802)

faithfully
<0530>_.

22:8

And Hilkiah
<02518>

the high
<01419>

priest
<03548>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Shaphan
<08227>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,

I have found
<04672> (8804)

the book
<05612>

of the law
<08451>

in the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

And Hilkiah
<02518>

gave
<05414> (8799)

the book
<05612>

to Shaphan
<08227>_,

and he read
<07121> (8799)

it.

22:9

And Shaphan
<08227>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)

came
<0935> (8799)

to the king
<04428>_,

and brought
<07725> (0)

the king
<04428>

word
<01697>

again
<07725> (8686)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thy servants
<05650>

have gathered
<05413> (8689)

the money
<03701>

that was found
<04672> (8737)

in the house
<01004>_,

and have delivered
<05414> (8799)

it into the hand
<03027>

of them that do
<06213> (8802)

the work
<04399>_,

that have the oversight
<06485> (8716)

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

{gathered: Heb. melted}

22:10

And Shaphan
<08227>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)

shewed
<05046> (8686)

the king
<04428>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Hilkiah
<02518>

the priest
<03548>

hath delivered
<05414> (8804)

me a book
<05612>_.

And Shaphan
<08227>

read
<07121> (8799)

it before
<06440>

the king
<04428>_.

22:11

And it came to pass, when the king
<04428>

had heard
<08085> (8800)

the words
<01697>

of the book
<05612>

of the law
<08451>_,

that he rent
<07167> (8799)

his clothes
<0899>_.

22:12

And the king
<04428>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

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> (8802)_,

and Asahiah
<06222>

a servant
<05650>

of the king's
<04428>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

{Achbor: or, Abdon} {Michaiah: or, Micah}

22:13

Go
<03212> (8798)

ye, enquire
<01875> (8798)

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> (8737)_:

for great
<01419>

[is] the wrath
<02534>

of the LORD
<03068>

that is kindled
<03341> (8738)

against us, because our fathers
<01>

have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)

unto the words
<01697>

of this book
<05612>_,

to do
<06213> (8800)

according unto all that which is written
<03789> (8803)

concerning us.

22:14

So Hilkiah
<02518>

the priest
<03548>_,

and Ahikam
<0296>_,

and Achbor
<05907>_,

and Shaphan
<08227>_,

and Asahiah
<06222>_,

went
<03212> (8799)

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> (8802)

of the wardrobe
<0899>_;

(now she dwelt
<03427> (8802)

in Jerusalem
<03389>

in the college
<04932>;)

and they communed
<01696> (8762)

with her. {wardrobe: Heb. garments} {in the...: or, in the second part}

22:15

And she said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

Tell
<0559> (8798)

the man
<0376>

that sent
<07971> (8804)

you to me,

22:16

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

evil
<07451>

upon this place
<04725>_,

and upon the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

thereof, [even] all the words
<01697>

of the book
<05612>

which the king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

hath read
<07121> (8804)_:

22:17

Because they have forsaken
<05800> (8804)

me, and have burned incense
<06999> (8762)

unto other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_,

that they might provoke me to anger
<03707> (8687)

with all the works
<04639>

of their hands
<03027>_;

therefore my wrath
<02534>

shall be kindled
<03341> (8738)

against this place
<04725>_,

and shall not be quenched
<03518> (8799)_.

22:18

But to the king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

which sent
<07971> (8802)

you to enquire
<01875> (8800)

of the LORD
<03068>_,

thus shall ye say
<0559> (8799)

to him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

[As touching] the words
<01697>

which thou hast heard
<08085> (8804)_;

22:19

Because thine heart
<03824>

was tender
<07401> (8804)_,

and thou hast humbled
<03665> (8735)

thyself before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

when thou heardest
<08085> (8800)

what I spake
<01696> (8765)

against this place
<04725>_,

and against the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

thereof, that they should become a desolation
<08047>

and a curse
<07045>_,

and hast rent
<07167> (8799)

thy clothes
<0899>_,

and wept
<01058> (8799)

before
<06440>

me; I also have heard
<08085> (8804)

[thee], saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

22:20

Behold therefore, I will gather
<0622> (8802)

thee unto thy fathers
<01>_,

and thou shalt be gathered
<0622> (8738)

into thy grave
<06913>

in peace
<07965>_;

and thine eyes
<05869>

shall not see
<07200> (8799)

all the evil
<07451>

which I will bring
<0935> (8688)

upon this place
<04725>_.

And they brought
<07725> (0)

the king
<04428>

word
<01697>

again
<07725> (8686)_.

23:1

And the king
<04428>

sent
<07971> (8799)_,

and they gathered
<0622> (8799)

unto him all the elders
<02205>

of Judah
<03063>

and of Jerusalem
<03389>_.

23:2

And the king
<04428>

went up
<05927> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and all the men
<0376>

of Judah
<03063>

and all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

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> (8799)

in their ears
<0241>

all the words
<01697>

of the book
<05612>

of the covenant
<01285>

which was found
<04672> (8737)

in the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

{both...: Heb. from small even unto great}

23:3

And the king
<04428>

stood
<05975> (8799)

by a pillar
<05982>_,

and made
<03772> (8799)

a covenant
<01285>

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

to walk
<03212> (8800)

after
<0310>

the LORD
<03068>_,

and to keep
<08104> (8800)

his commandments
<04687>

and his testimonies
<05715>

and his statutes
<02708>

with all [their] heart
<03820>

and all [their] soul
<05315>_,

to perform
<06965> (8687)

the words
<01697>

of this covenant
<01285>

that were written
<03789> (8803)

in this book
<05612>_.

And all the people
<05971>

stood
<05975> (8799)

to the covenant
<01285>_.

23:4

And the king
<04428>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

Hilkiah
<02518>

the high
<01419>

priest
<03548>_,

and the priests
<03548>

of the second order
<04932>_,

and the keepers
<08104> (8802)

of the door
<05592>_,

to bring forth
<03318> (8687)

out of the temple
<01964>

of the LORD
<03068>

all the vessels
<03627>

that were made
<06213> (8803)

for Baal
<01168>_,

and for the grove
<0842>_,

and for all the host
<06635>

of heaven
<08064>_:

and he burned
<08313> (8799)

them without
<02351>

Jerusalem
<03389>

in the fields
<07709>

of Kidron
<06939>_,

and carried
<05375> (8804)

the ashes
<06083>

of them unto Bethel
<01008>_.

23:5

And he put down
<07673> (8689)

the idolatrous priests
<03649>_,

whom the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

had ordained
<05414> (8804)

to burn incense
<06999> (8762)

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> (8764)

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>_.

{put...: Heb. caused to cease} {idolatrous...: Heb. Chemarim} {planets: or, twelve signs or, constellations}

23:6

And he brought out
<03318> (8686)

the grove
<0842>

from the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

without
<02351>

Jerusalem
<03389>_,

unto the brook
<05158>

Kidron
<06939>_,

and burned
<08313> (8799)

it at the brook
<05158>

Kidron
<06939>_,

and stamped [it] small
<01854> (8686)

to powder
<06083>_,

and cast
<07993> (8686)

the powder
<06083>

thereof upon the graves
<06913>

of the children
<01121>

of the people
<05971>_.

23:7

And he brake down
<05422> (8799)

the houses
<01004>

of the sodomites
<06945>_,

that [were] by the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

where the women
<0802>

wove
<0707> (8802)

hangings
<01004>

for the grove
<0842>_.

{hangings: Heb. houses}

23:8

And he brought
<0935> (8686)

all the priests
<03548>

out of the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and defiled
<02930> (8762)

the high places
<01116>

where the priests
<03548>

had burned incense
<06999> (8765)_,

from Geba
<01387>

to Beersheba
<0884>_,

and brake down
<05422> (8804)

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>_.

23:9

Nevertheless the priests
<03548>

of the high places
<01116>

came not up
<05927> (8799)

to the altar
<04196>

of the LORD
<03068>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

but they did eat
<0398> (8804)

of the unleavened bread
<04682>

among
<08432>

their brethren
<0251>_.

23:10

And he defiled
<02930> (8765)

Topheth
<08612>_,

which [is] in the valley
<01516>

of the children
<01121> (8675) <01121>

of Hinnom
<02011>_,

that no man
<0376>

might make his son
<01121>

or his daughter
<01323>

to pass through
<05674> (8687)

the fire
<0784>

to Molech
<04432>_.

23:11

And he took away
<07673> (8686)

the horses
<05483>

that the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

had given
<05414> (8804)

to the sun
<08121>_,

at the entering in
<0935> (8800)

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> (8804)

the chariots
<04818>

of the sun
<08121>

with fire
<0784>_.

{chamberlain: or, eunuch, or, officer}

23:12

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> (8804)_,

and the altars
<04196>

which Manasseh
<04519>

had made
<06213> (8804)

in the two
<08147>

courts
<02691>

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

did the king
<04428>

beat down
<05422> (8804)_,

and brake [them] down
<07323> (8799)

from thence, and cast
<07993> (8689)

the dust
<06083>

of them into the brook
<05158>

Kidron
<06939>_.

{brake...: or, ran from thence}

23:13

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> (8804)

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> (8765)_.

{the mount...: that is, the mount of Olives}

23:14

And he brake in pieces
<07665> (8765)

the images
<04676>_,

and cut down
<03772> (8799)

the groves
<0842>_,

and filled
<04390> (8762)

their places
<04725>

with the bones
<06106>

of men
<0120>_.

{images: Heb. statues}

23:15

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> (8689)_,

had made
<06213> (8804)_,

both that altar
<04196>

and the high place
<01116>

he brake down
<05422> (8804)_,

and burned
<08313> (8799)

the high place
<01116>_,

[and] stamped
<01854> (8689)

[it] small to powder
<06083>_,

and burned
<08313> (8804)

the grove
<0842>_.

23:16

And as Josiah
<02977>

turned
<06437> (8799)

himself, he spied
<07200> (8799)

the sepulchres
<06913>

that [were] there in the mount
<02022>_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

the bones
<06106>

out of the sepulchres
<06913>_,

and burned
<08313> (8799)

[them] upon the altar
<04196>_,

and polluted
<02930> (8762)

it, according to the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

which the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>

proclaimed
<07121> (8804)_,

who proclaimed
<07121> (8804)

these words
<01697>_.

23:17

Then he said
<0559> (8799)_,

What title
<06725>

[is] that
<01975>

that I see
<07200> (8802)_?

And the men
<0582>

of the city
<05892>

told
<0559> (8799)

him, [It is] the sepulchre
<06913>

of the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

which came
<0935> (8804)

from Judah
<03063>_,

and proclaimed
<07121> (8799)

these things
<01697>

that thou hast done
<06213> (8804)

against the altar
<04196>

of Bethel
<01008>_.

23:18

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let him alone
<03240> (8685)_;

let no man
<0376>

move
<05128> (8686)

his bones
<06106>_.

So they let his bones
<06106>

alone
<04422> (8762)_,

with the bones
<06106>

of the prophet
<05030>

that came out
<0935> (8804)

of Samaria
<08111>_.

{bones alone: Heb. bones to escape}

23:19

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> (8804)

to provoke [the LORD] to anger
<03707> (8687)_,

Josiah
<02977>

took away
<05493> (8689)_,

and did
<06213> (8799)

to them according to all the acts
<04639>

that he had done
<06213> (8804)

in Bethel
<01008>_.

23:20

And he slew
<02076> (8799)

all the priests
<03548>

of the high places
<01116>

that [were] there upon the altars
<04196>_,

and burned
<08313> (8799)

men's
<0120>

bones
<06106>

upon them, and returned
<07725> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_.

{slew: or, sacrificed}

23:21

And the king
<04428>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

all the people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Keep
<06213> (8798)

the passover
<06453>

unto the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_,

as [it is] written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of this covenant
<01285>_.

23:22

Surely there was not holden
<06213> (8738)

such a passover
<06453>

from the days
<03117>

of the judges
<08199> (8802)

that judged
<08199> (8804)

Israel
<03478>_,

nor in all the days
<03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

nor of the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_;

23:23

But in the eighteenth
<08083> <06240>

year
<08141>

of king
<04428>

Josiah
<02977>_,

[wherein] this passover
<06453>

was holden
<06213> (8738)

to the LORD
<03068>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

23:24

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> (8738)

in the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>

and in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

did Josiah
<02977>

put away
<01197> (8765)_,

that he might perform
<06965> (8687)

the words
<01697>

of the law
<08451>

which were written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

that Hilkiah
<02518>

the priest
<03548>

found
<04672> (8804)

in the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

{images: or, teraphim}

23:25

And like unto him was there no king
<04428>

before
<06440>

him, that turned
<07725> (8804)

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> (8804)

there [any] like him.

23:26

Notwithstanding the LORD
<03068>

turned
<07725> (8804)

not from the fierceness
<02740>

of his great
<01419>

wrath
<0639>_,

wherewith his anger
<0639>

was kindled
<02734> (8804)

against Judah
<03063>_,

because of all the provocations
<03708>

that Manasseh
<04519>

had provoked
<03707> (8689)

him withal. {provocations: Heb. angers}

23:27

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will remove
<05493> (8686)

Judah
<03063>

also out of my sight
<06440>_,

as I have removed
<05493> (8689)

Israel
<03478>_,

and will cast off
<03988> (8804)

this city
<05892>

Jerusalem
<03389>

which I have chosen
<0977> (8804)_,

and the house
<01004>

of which I said
<0559> (8804)_,

My name
<08034>

shall be there.

23:28

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Josiah
<02977>_,

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>_?

23:29

In his days
<03117>

Pharaohnechoh
<06549>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>

went up
<05927> (8804)

against the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

to the river
<05104>

Euphrates
<06578>_:

and king
<04428>

Josiah
<02977>

went
<03212> (8799)

against
<07125> (8800)

him; and he slew
<04191> (8686)

him at Megiddo
<04023>_,

when he had seen
<07200> (8800)

him.

23:30

And his servants
<05650>

carried him in a chariot
<07392> (8686)

dead
<04191> (8801)

from Megiddo
<04023>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

him to Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and buried
<06912> (8799)

him in his own sepulchre
<06900>_.

And the people
<05971>

of the land
<0776>

took
<03947> (8799)

Jehoahaz
<03059>

the son
<01121>

of Josiah
<02977>_,

and anointed
<04886> (8799)

him, and made him king
<04427> (8686)

in his father's
<01>

stead.

23:31

Jehoahaz
<03059>

[was] twenty
<06242>

and three
<07969>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_;

and he reigned
<04427> (8804)

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>_.

{Jehoahaz: also called, Shallum}

23:32

And he did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

according to all that his fathers
<01>

had done
<06213> (8804)_.

23:33

And Pharaohnechoh
<06549>

put him in bands
<0631> (8799)

at Riblah
<07247>

in the land
<0776>

of Hamath
<02574>_,

that he might not reign
<04427> (8800)

in Jerusalem
<03389>_;

and put
<05414> (8799)

the land
<0776>

to a tribute
<06066>

of an hundred
<03967>

talents
<03603>

of silver
<03701>_,

and a talent
<03603>

of gold
<02091>_.

{that...: or, because he reigned} {put the...: Heb. set a fine upon the land}

23:34

And Pharaohnechoh
<06549>

made Eliakim
<0471>

the son
<01121>

of Josiah
<02977>

king
<04427> (8686)

in the room of Josiah
<02977>

his father
<01>_,

and turned
<05437> (8686)

his name
<08034>

to Jehoiakim
<03079>_,

and took
<03947> (0)

Jehoahaz
<03059>

away
<03947> (8804)_:

and he came
<0935> (8799)

to Egypt
<04714>_,

and died
<04191> (8799)

there.

23:35

And Jehoiakim
<03079>

gave
<05414> (8804)

the silver
<03701>

and the gold
<02091>

to Pharaoh
<06547>_;

but he taxed
<06186> (8689)

the land
<0776>

to give
<05414> (8800)

the money
<03701>

according to the commandment
<06310>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_:

he exacted
<05065> (8804)

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> (8800)

[it] unto Pharaohnechoh
<06549>_.

23:36

Jehoiakim
<03079>

[was] twenty
<06242>

and five
<02568>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_;

and he reigned
<04427> (8804)

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>_.

23:37

And he did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

according to all that his fathers
<01>

had done
<06213> (8804)_.

2 Kings 23:2

23:2

And the king
<04428>

went up
<05927> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and all the men
<0376>

of Judah
<03063>

and all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

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> (8799)

in their ears
<0241>

all the words
<01697>

of the book
<05612>

of the covenant
<01285>

which was found
<04672> (8737)

in the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

{both...: Heb. from small even unto great}

2 Kings 1:1-18

1:1

Then Moab
<04124>

rebelled
<06586> (8799)

against Israel
<03478>

after
<0310>

the death
<04194>

of Ahab
<0256>_.

1:2

And Ahaziah
<0274>

fell down
<05307> (8799)

through a lattice
<07639>

in his upper chamber
<05944>

that [was] in Samaria
<08111>_,

and was sick
<02470> (8799)_:

and he sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Go
<03212> (8798)_,

enquire
<01875> (8798)

of Baalzebub
<01176>

the god
<0430>

of Ekron
<06138>

whether I shall recover
<02421> (8799)

of this disease
<02483>_.

1:3

But the angel
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>

said
<01696> (8765)

to Elijah
<0452>

the Tishbite
<08664>_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

go up
<05927> (8798)

to meet
<07125> (8800)

the messengers
<04397>

of the king
<04428>

of Samaria
<08111>_,

and say
<01696> (8761)

unto them, [Is it] not because [there is] not a God
<0430>

in Israel
<03478>_,

[that] ye go
<01980> (8802)

to enquire
<01875> (8800)

of Baalzebub
<01176>

the god
<0430>

of Ekron
<06138>_?

1:4

Now therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Thou shalt not come down
<03381> (8799)

from that bed
<04296>

on which thou art gone up
<05927> (8804)_,

but shalt surely
<04191> (8800)

die
<04191> (8799)_.

And Elijah
<0452>

departed
<03212> (8799)_.

{Thou shalt...: Heb. The bed whither thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down from it}

1:5

And when the messengers
<04397>

turned back
<07725> (8799)

unto him, he said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Why are ye now
<02088>

turned back
<07725> (8804)_?

1:6

And they said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, There came
<05927> (0)

a man
<0376>

up
<05927> (8804)

to meet
<07125> (8800)

us, and said
<0559> (8799)

unto us, Go
<03212> (8798)_,

turn again
<07725> (8798)

unto the king
<04428>

that sent
<07971> (8804)

you, and say
<01696> (8765)

unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

[Is it] not because [there is] not a God
<0430>

in Israel
<03478>_,

[that] thou sendest
<07971> (8802)

to enquire
<01875> (8800)

of Baalzebub
<01176>

the god
<0430>

of Ekron
<06138>_?

therefore thou shalt not come down
<03381> (8799)

from that bed
<04296>

on which thou art gone up
<05927> (8804)_,

but shalt surely
<04191> (8800)

die
<04191> (8799)_.

1:7

And he said
<01696> (8762)

unto them, What manner
<04941>

of man
<0376>

[was he] which came up
<05927> (8804)

to meet
<07125> (8800)

you, and told
<01696> (8762)

you these words
<01697>_?

{What...: Heb. What was the manner of the man}

1:8

And they answered
<0559> (8799)

him, [He was] an hairy
<08181>

man
<01167> <0376>_,

and girt
<0247> (8803)

with a girdle
<0232>

of leather
<05785>

about his loins
<04975>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

It [is] Elijah
<0452>

the Tishbite
<08664>_.

1:9

Then the king
<04428>

sent
<07971> (8799)

unto him a captain
<08269>

of fifty
<02572>

with his fifty
<02572>_.

And he went up
<05927> (8799)

to him: and, behold, he sat
<03427> (8802)

on the top
<07218>

of an hill
<02022>_.

And he spake
<01696> (8762)

unto him, Thou man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

the king
<04428>

hath said
<01696> (8765)_,

Come down
<03381> (8798)_.

1:10

And Elijah
<0452>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<01696> (8762)

to the captain
<08269>

of fifty
<02572>_,

If I [be] a man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

then let fire
<0784>

come down
<03381> (8799)

from heaven
<08064>_,

and consume
<0398> (8799)

thee and thy fifty
<02572>_.

And there came down
<03381> (8799)

fire
<0784>

from heaven
<08064>_,

and consumed
<0398> (8799)

him and his fifty
<02572>_.

1:11

Again
<07725> (8799)

also he sent
<07971> (8799)

unto him another
<0312>

captain
<08269>

of fifty
<02572>

with his fifty
<02572>_.

And he answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<01696> (8762)

unto him, O man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

thus hath the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8804)_,

Come down
<03381> (8798)

quickly
<04120>_.

1:12

And Elijah
<0452>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<01696> (8762)

unto them, If I [be] a man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

let fire
<0784>

come down
<03381> (8799)

from heaven
<08064>_,

and consume
<0398> (8799)

thee and thy fifty
<02572>_.

And the fire
<0784>

of God
<0430>

came down
<03381> (8799)

from heaven
<08064>_,

and consumed
<0398> (8799)

him and his fifty
<02572>_.

1:13

And he sent
<07971> (8799)

again
<07725> (8799)

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> (8799)_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

and fell
<03766> (8799)

on his knees
<01290>

before
<05048>

Elijah
<0452>_,

and besought
<02603> (8691)

him, and said
<01696> (8762)

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> (8799)

in thy sight
<05869>_.

{fell: Heb. bowed}

1:14

Behold, there came
<03381> (0)

fire
<0784>

down
<03381> (8804)

from heaven
<08064>_,

and burnt up
<0398> (8799)

the two
<08147>

captains
<08269>

of the former
<07223>

fifties
<02572>

with their fifties
<02572>_:

therefore let my life
<05315>

now be precious
<03365> (8799)

in thy sight
<05869>_.

1:15

And the angel
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>

said
<01696> (8762)

unto Elijah
<0452>_,

Go down
<03381> (8798)

with him: be not afraid
<03372> (8799)

of him
<06440>_.

And he arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and went down
<03381> (8799)

with him unto the king
<04428>_.

1:16

And he said
<01696> (8762)

unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Forasmuch as thou hast sent
<07971> (8804)

messengers
<04397>

to enquire
<01875> (8800)

of Baalzebub
<01176>

the god
<0430>

of Ekron
<06138>_,

[is it] not because [there is] no God
<0430>

in Israel
<03478>

to enquire
<01875> (8800)

of his word
<01697>_?

therefore thou shalt not come down
<03381> (8799)

off that bed
<04296>

on which thou art gone up
<05927> (8804)_,

but shalt surely
<04191> (8800)

die
<04191> (8799)_.

1:17

So he died
<04191> (8799)

according to the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

which Elijah
<0452>

had spoken
<01696> (8765)_.

And Jehoram
<03088>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

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>_.

1:18

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Ahaziah
<0274>

which he did
<06213> (8804)_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_?

2 Kings 1:1

1:1

Then Moab
<04124>

rebelled
<06586> (8799)

against Israel
<03478>

after
<0310>

the death
<04194>

of Ahab
<0256>_.
