4:1

Now there cried
<06817> (8804)

a certain
<0259>

woman
<0802>

of the wives
<0802>

of the sons
<01121>

of the prophets
<05030>

unto Elisha
<0477>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thy servant
<05650>

my husband
<0376>

is dead
<04191> (8804)_;

and thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

that thy servant
<05650>

did fear
<03373>

the LORD
<03068>_:

and the creditor
<05383> (8802)

is come
<0935> (8804)

to take
<03947> (8800)

unto him my two
<08147>

sons
<03206>

to be bondmen
<05650>_.

2 Kings 8:1-29

8:1

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>_.

8:2

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>_.

8:3

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>_.

8:4

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)_.

8:5

And it came to pass, as he was telling
<05608> (8764)

the king
<04428>

how he had restored
<02421> (0)

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)_.

8:6

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. {officer: or, eunuch}

8:7

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>_.

8:8

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>_?

8:9

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>_?

{with...: Heb. in his hand}

8:10

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)_.

8:11

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)_.

{stedfastly: Heb. and set it}

8:12

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>_.

8:13

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>_.

8:14

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)_.

8:15

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.

8:16

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)_.

{began...: Heb. reigned}

8:17

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>_.

8:18

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>_.

8:19

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>_.

{light: Heb. candle, or, lamp}

8:20

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.

8:21

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>_.

8:22

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>_.

8:23

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>_?

8:24

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. {Ahaziah: also called, Azariah, and Jehoahaz}

8:25

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)_.

8:26

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>_.

{daughter: or, granddaughter}

8:27

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>_.

8:28

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>_.

8:29

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)_.

{which...: Heb. wherewith the Syrians had wounded} {Ramah: called Ramoth} {sick: Heb. wounded}
