2 Kings 7:1 (ASV) American Standard Version

1 And Elisha said, Hear ye the word of Jehovah: thus saith Jehovah, To-morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.
2 Then the captain on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if Jehovah should make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.
3 Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?
4 If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there; and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.
5 And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians; and when they were come to the outermost part of the camp of the Syrians, behold, there was no man there.
6 For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.
7 Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.
8 And when these lepers came to the outermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and they came back, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it.
9 Then they said one to another, We do not well; this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, punishment will overtake us; now therefore come, let us go and tell the kings household.
10 So they came and called unto the porter of the city; and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but the horses tied, and the asses tied, and the tents as they were.
11 And he called the porters; and they told it to the kings household within.
12 And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I will now show you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we are hungry; therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, When they come out of the city, we shall take them alive, and get into the city.
13 And one of his servants answered and said, Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city (behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it; behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are consumed); and let us send and see.
14 They took therefore two chariots with horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.
15 And they went after them unto the Jordan: and, lo, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.
16 And the people went out, and plundered the camp of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of Jehovah.
17 And the king appointed the captain on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trod upon him in the gate, and he died as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down to him.
18 And it came to pass, as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be to-morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria;
19 and that captain answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if Jehovah should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? and he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof:
20 it came to pass even so unto him; for the people trod upon him in the gate, and he died.
1 Then Elisha H477 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Hear H8085 VQI2MP ye the word H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS ; Thus H3541 saith H559 W-VQY3MS the LORD H3068 EDS , Tomorrow H4279 NMS about this time H6256 KD-NMS shall a measure H5429 of fine flour H5560 be sold for a shekel H8255 , and two measures H5429 of barley H8184 for a shekel H8255 , in the gate H8179 of Samaria H8111 .
2 Then a lord H7991 on H5921 PREP whose H834 RPRO hand H3027 CFS-3MS the king H4428 leaned H8172 answered H6030 W-VQY3MS the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-EDP , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Behold H2009 IJEC , if the LORD H3068 EDS would make H6213 VQPMS windows H699 in heaven H8064 BD-NMP , might this H2088 D-PMS thing H1697 D-NMS be H1961 ? And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Behold H2009 IJEC , thou shalt see H7200 VQPMS it with thine eyes H5869 , but shalt not H3808 NADV eat H398 thereof H8033 WM-ADV .
3 And there were H1961 VQQ3MP four H702 leprous H6879 men H376 NMS at the entering in H6607 CMS of the gate H8179 : and they said H559 one H376 NMS to H413 PREP another H7453 NMS-3MS , Why H4100 IGAT sit H3427 we H587 PPRO-1MP here H6311 ADV until H5704 PREP we die H4191 ?
4 If H518 PART we say H559 , We will enter H935 VNQ3MS into the city H5892 D-GFS , then the famine H7458 is in the city H5892 BD-NFS , and we shall die H4191 there H8033 ADV : and if H518 PART we sit H3427 still here H6311 , we die H4191 also . Now H6258 W-ADV therefore come H1980 VQI2MP , and let us fall H5307 unto H413 PREP the host H4264 of the Syrians H758 EMS : if H518 PART they save us alive H2421 , we shall live H2421 ; and if H518 PART they kill H4191 us , we shall but die H4191 .
5 And they rose up H6965 in the twilight H5399 , to go H935 L-VQFC unto H413 PREP the camp H4264 of the Syrians H758 EMS : and when they were come H935 W-VQY3MP to H5704 PREP the uttermost part H7097 of the camp H4264 of Syria H758 EMS , behold H2009 IJEC , there was no H369 ADV man H376 NMS there H8033 ADV .
6 For the Lord H136 had made the host H4264 of the Syrians H758 EMS to hear H8085 a noise H6963 CMS of chariots H7393 , and a noise H6963 CMS of horses H5483 , even the noise H6963 CMS of a great H1419 AMS host H2428 NMS : and they said H559 W-VQY3MP one H376 NMS to H413 PREP another H251 CMS-3MS , Lo H2009 IJEC , the king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 hath hired H7936 against H5921 PREP-1MP us the kings H4428 NMS of the Hittites H2850 , and the kings H4428 NMS of the Egyptians H4714 EFS , to come H935 L-VQFC upon H5921 us .
7 Wherefore they arose H6965 and fled H5127 in the twilight H5399 , and left H5800 their tents H168 , and their horses H5483 , and their asses H2543 , even the camp H4264 as H834 K-RPRO it H1931 PPRO-3FS was , and fled H5127 W-VQY3MP for H413 PREP their life H5315 .
8 And when these H428 D-DPRO-3MP lepers H6879 came H935 W-VQY3MP to H5704 PREP the uttermost part H7097 of the camp H4264 , they went H935 W-VQY3MP into H413 PREP one H259 MMS tent H168 NMS , and did eat H398 W-VQY3MP and drink H8354 , and carried H5375 W-VQY3MP thence H8033 M-ADV silver H3701 NMS , and gold H2091 , and raiment H899 , and went H1980 W-VQY3MP and hid H2934 it ; and came again H7725 W-VUY3MP , and entered H935 W-VQY3MP into H413 PREP another H312 AMS tent H168 NMS , and carried H5375 W-VQY3MP thence H8033 M-ADV also , and went H1980 W-VQY3MP and hid H2934 it .
9 Then they said H559 W-VQY3MP one H376 NMS to H413 PREP another H7453 NMS-3MS , We H587 PPRO-1MP do H6213 not H3808 ADV well H3651 ADV : this H2088 D-PMS day H3117 NUM-MS is a day H3117 NMS of good tidings H1309 , and we H587 hold our peace H2814 : if we tarry H2442 till H5704 PREP the morning H1242 light H216 NMS , some mischief H5771 will come upon H4672 us : now H6258 W-ADV therefore come H1980 VQI2MP , that we may go H935 and tell H5046 the king H4428 \'s household H1004 CMS .
10 So they came H935 W-VQY3MP and called H7121 unto H413 PREP the porter H7778 of the city H5892 D-GFS : and they told H5046 them , saying H559 L-VQFC , We came H935 to H413 PREP the camp H4264 of the Syrians H758 EMS , and , behold H2009 IJEC , there was no H369 ADV man H376 NMS there H8033 ADV , neither voice H6963 W-CMS of man H120 NMS , but H518 PART horses H5483 tied H631 , and asses H2543 tied H631 , and the tents H168 as H834 K-RPRO they H1992 were .
11 And he called H7121 W-VQY3MS the porters H7778 ; and they told H5046 it to the king H4428 D-NMS \'s house H1004 CMS within H6441 .
12 And the king H4428 D-NMS arose H6965 W-VQY3MS in the night H3915 GMS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP his servants H5650 , I will now H4994 IJEC show H5046 you what H834 RPRO the Syrians H758 EMS have done H6213 VQQ3MP to us . They know H3045 VQQ3MP that H3588 CONJ we H587 PPRO-1MP be hungry H7457 ; therefore are they gone out H3318 W-VQY3MP of H4480 PREP the camp H4264 to hide themselves H2247 in the field H7704 , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , When H3588 CONJ they come out H3318 of H4480 PREP the city H5892 D-GFS , we shall catch H8610 them alive H2416 NMP , and get H935 into H413 PREP the city H5892 D-GFS .
13 And one H259 MMS of his servants H5650 answered H6030 W-VQY3MS and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Let some take H3947 , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , five H2568 of H4480 PREP the horses H5483 that remain H7604 , which H834 RPRO are left H7604 in the city H2009 , ( behold H2009 , they are as all H3605 the multitude H1995 of Israel H3478 that H834 RPRO are left H7604 in it : behold H2009 , I say , they are even as all H3605 the multitude H1995 of the Israelites H3478 that H834 RPRO are consumed H8552 : ) and let us send H7971 and see H7200 .
14 They took H3947 W-VQY3MP therefore two H8147 ONUM chariot H7393 horses H5483 ; and the king H4428 D-NMS sent H7971 W-VQY3MS after H310 PREP the host H4264 of the Syrians H758 EMS , saying H559 L-VQFC , Go H1980 VQI2MP and see H7200 .
15 And they went H1980 W-VQY3MP after H310 them unto H5704 PREP Jordan H3383 D-EFS : and , lo H2009 IJEC , all H3605 CMS the way H1870 D-NMS was full H4392 of garments H899 and vessels H3627 , which H834 RPRO the Syrians H758 EMS had cast away H7993 in their haste H2648 . And the messengers H4397 returned H7725 W-VUY3MP , and told H5046 the king H4428 .
16 And the people H5971 went out H3318 W-VQY3MS , and spoiled H962 the tents H4264 of the Syrians H758 EMS . So a measure H5429 of fine flour H5560 was H1961 W-VQY3MS sold for a shekel H8255 , and two measures H5429 of barley H8184 for a shekel H8255 , according to the word H1697 K-NMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
17 And the king H4428 appointed H6485 the lord H7991 on H5921 PREP whose H834 RPRO hand H3027 CFS-3MS he leaned H8172 to have the charge of H5921 PREP the gate H8179 : and the people H5971 trod upon H7429 him in the gate H8179 , and he died H4191 , as H834 RPRO the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-EDP had said H1696 VPQ3MS , who H834 RPRO spoke H1696 VPQ3MS when the king H4428 D-NMS came down H3381 to H413 him .
18 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS as the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-EDP had spoken H1696 K-VPFC to H413 PREP the king H4428 D-NMS , saying H559 L-VQFC , Two measures H5429 of barley H8184 for a shekel H8255 , and a measure H5429 of fine flour H5560 for a shekel H8255 , shall be H1961 VQY3MS tomorrow H4279 NMS about this time H6256 KD-NMS in the gate H8179 of Samaria H8111 :
19 And that lord H7991 answered H6030 W-VQY3MS the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-EDP , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Now , behold H2009 IJEC , if the LORD H3068 EDS should make H6213 VQPMS windows H699 in heaven H8064 BD-NMP , might such H2088 D-PMS a thing H1697 be H1961 ? And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Behold H2009 IJEC , thou shalt see H7200 VQPMS it with thine eyes H5869 , but shalt not H3808 NADV eat H398 thereof H8033 WM-ADV .
20 And so H3651 ADV it fell out H1961 W-VQY3MS unto him : for the people H5971 trod upon H7429 him in the gate H8179 , and he died H4191 W-VQY3MS .
