1 And the sons H1121 of the prophets H5030 said H559 W-VQY3MP unto H413 PREP Elisha H477 , Behold H2009 IJEC now H4994 IJEC , the place H4725 D-NMS where H834 RPRO we H587 PPRO-1MP dwell H3427 with H6440 L-CMP-2MS thee is too strait H6862 AMS for H4480 M-PREP-3MS us .
2 Let us go H1980 , we pray thee H4994 IJEC , unto H5704 PREP Jordan H3383 D-EFS , and take H3947 thence H8033 M-ADV every man H376 NMS a H259 MFS beam H6982 , and let us make H6213 us a place H4725 NUM-MS there H8033 ADV , where H8033 ADV we may dwell H3427 L-VQFC . And he answered H559 W-VQY3MS , Go H1980 ye .
3 And one H259 D-AMS said H559 W-VQY3MS , Be content H2974 , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , and go H1980 with H854 PREP thy servants H5650 . And he answered H559 W-VQY3MS , I H589 PPRO-1MS will go H1980 .
4 So he went H1980 W-VQY3MS with H854 PREP-3MP them . And when they came H935 W-VQY3MP to Jordan H3383 , they cut down H1504 wood H6086 .
5 But as one H259 D-AMS was H1961 W-VQY3MS felling H5307 a beam H6982 , the axe head H1270 fell H5307 into H413 PREP the water H4325 D-OMD : and he cried H6817 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Alas H162 , master H113 ! for it H1931 W-PPRO-3MS was borrowed H7592 .
6 And the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-EDP said H559 W-VQY3MS , Where H575 ADV fell H5307 it ? And he showed H7200 him the place H4725 D-NMS . And he cut down H7094 a stick H6086 NMS , and cast H7993 it in thither H8033 ADV-3FS ; and the iron H1270 did swim H6687 .
7 Therefore said H559 W-VQY3MS he , Take it up H7311 to thee . And he put out H7971 W-VQY3MS his hand H3027 CFS-3MS , and took H3947 it .
8 Then the king H4428 of Syria H758 EMS warred H3898 against Israel H3478 , and took counsel H3289 with H413 PREP his servants H5650 , saying H559 L-VQFC , In H413 PREP such and such H6423 a place H4725 CMS shall be my camp H8466 .
9 And the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-EDP sent H7971 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP the king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Beware H8104 VNI2MS that thou pass not H5674 M-VQFC such H2088 D-PMS a place H4725 D-NMS ; for H3588 CONJ thither H8033 ADV the Syrians H758 EMS are come down H5185 .
10 And the king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 sent H7971 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP the place H4725 D-NMS which H834 RPRO the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-EDP told H559 him and warned H2094 him of , and saved himself H8104 there H8033 ADV , not H3808 NADV once H259 OFS nor H3808 W-NADV twice H8147 .
11 Therefore the heart H3820 NMS of the king H4428 NMS of Syria H758 EMS was sore troubled H5590 for H5921 PREP this H2088 D-PMS thing H1697 D-NMS ; and he called H7121 W-VQY3MS his servants H5650 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP them , Will ye not H3808 D-NPAR show H5046 me which H4310 IPRO of us is for H413 PREP the king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 LMS ?
12 And one H259 of his servants H5650 said H559 W-VQY3MS , None H3808 , my lord H113 , O king H4428 D-NMS : but H3588 CONJ Elisha H477 , the prophet H5030 that H834 RPRO is in Israel H3478 , telleth H5046 VHY3MS the king H4428 L-CMS of Israel H3478 the words H1697 AMP that H834 RPRO thou speakest H1696 in thy bedchamber H2315 .
13 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Go H1980 VQI2MP and spy H7200 where H351 he H1931 PPRO-3MS is , that I may send H7971 and fetch H3947 him . And it was told H5046 him , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , Behold H2009 IJEC , he is in Dothan H1886 .
14 Therefore sent H7971 W-VQY3MS he thither H8033 ADV-3FS horses H5483 , and chariots H7393 , and a great H3515 VQS3MS host H2428 : and they came H935 W-VQY3MP by night H3915 GMS , and compassed H5362 the city H5892 D-GFS about .
15 And when the servant H8334 of the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-NAME-4MP was risen H6965 early H7925 , and gone forth H3318 W-VQY3MS , behold H2009 IJEC , a host H2428 NMS compassed H5437 the city H5892 D-GFS both with horses H5483 and chariots H7393 . And his servant H5288 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Alas H162 , my master H113 ! how H349 shall we do H6213 ?
16 And he answered H559 W-VQY3MS , Fear H3372 not H408 NPAR : for H3588 CONJ they that H834 RPRO be with H854 PREP-1MP us are more H7227 AMP than they that RPRO be with H854 them .
17 And Elisha H477 prayed H6419 W-VTY3MS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , LORD H3068 EDS , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , open H6491 his eyes H5869 CMD-3MS , that he may see H7200 W-VIY3MS . And the LORD H3068 EDS opened H6491 the eyes H5869 CMD of the young man H5288 ; and he saw H7200 W-VIY3MS : and , behold H2009 IJEC , the mountain H2022 was full H4390 VQQ3MS of horses H5483 and chariots H7393 of fire H784 CMS round about H5439 Elisha H477 .
18 And when they came down H3381 to H413 PREP-3MS him , Elisha H477 prayed H6419 W-VTY3MS unto H413 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Smite H5221 this H2088 D-PMS people H1471 , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , with blindness H5575 . And he smote H5221 W-VHY3MS-3MP them with blindness H5575 according to the word H1697 K-NMS of Elisha H477 .
19 And Elisha H477 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP them , This H2088 DPRO is not H3808 NADV the way H1870 D-NMS , neither H3808 W-NADV is this H2090 the city H5892 D-GFS : follow H1980 VQI2MP me , and I will bring H1980 you to H413 PREP the man H376 D-NMS whom H834 RPRO ye seek H1245 . But he led H1980 them to Samaria H8111 .
20 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when they were come H935 into Samaria H8111 , that Elisha H477 said H559 W-VQY3MS , LORD H3068 EDS , open H6491 the eyes H5869 of these H428 PMP men , that they may see H7200 . And the LORD H3068 EDS opened H6491 their eyes H5869 CMD-3MP , and they saw H7200 W-VQY3MP ; and , behold H2009 IJEC , they were in the midst H8432 B-NMS of Samaria H8111 .
21 And the king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Elisha H477 , when he saw H7200 them , My father H1 , shall I smite H5221 them ? shall I smite H5221 them ?
22 And he answered H559 W-VQY3MS , Thou shalt not H3808 NADV smite H5221 them : wouldest thou H859 PPRO-2MS smite H5221 those whom H834 thou hast taken captive H7617 with thy sword H2719 and with thy bow H7198 ? set H7760 VQFC bread H3899 NMS and water H4325 before H6440 L-CMP-3MP them , that they may eat H398 and drink H8354 , and go H1980 to H413 PREP their master H113 .
23 And he prepared H3739 great H1419 AFS provision H3740 for them : and when they had eaten H398 and drunk H8354 , he sent them away H7971 W-VPY3MS-3MP , and they went H1980 W-VQY3MP to H413 PREP their master H113 . So the bands H1416 of Syria H758 EMS came H935 L-VQFC no H3808 W-NPAR more H3254 into the land H776 B-GFS of Israel H3478 LMS .
24 And it came to pass H1961 W-VPY3MS after H310 PREP this H3651 ADV , that Ben H1130 - hadad king H4428 NMS of Syria H758 EMS gathered H6908 all H3605 NMS his host H4264 , and went up H5927 W-VHY3MS , and besieged H6696 Samaria H8111 .
25 And there was H1961 W-VQY3MS a great H1419 AMS famine H7458 NMS in Samaria H8111 : and , behold H2009 IJEC , they besieged H6696 it , until H5704 PREP an ass H2543 CMS \'s head H7218 NMS was H1961 VQFC sold for fourscore H8084 pieces of silver H3701 NMS , and the fourth part H7255 of a cab H6894 of dove\'s dung H1686 for five H2568 pieces of silver H3701 .
26 And as the king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 was H1961 W-VPY3MS passing by H5674 upon H5921 PREP the wall H2346 , there cried H6817 a woman H802 unto H413 PREP-3MS him , saying H559 L-VQFC , Help H3467 , my lord H113 , O king H4428 NMS .
27 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , If the LORD H3068 EDS do not H408 NPAR help H3467 thee , whence H370 M-ADV shall I help H3467 thee ? out of H4480 PREP the barnfloor H1637 , or H176 CONJ out of H4480 PREP the winepress H3342 ?
28 And the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 unto her , What H4100 IPRO aileth thee ? And she answered H559 W-VQY3FS , This H2063 D-DFS woman H802 D-NFS said H559 VQQ3FS unto H413 PREP-1MS me , Give H5414 thy son H1121 NMS-1MS , that we may eat H398 him today H3117 D-AMS , and we will eat H398 my son H1121 NMS-1MS tomorrow H4279 .
29 So we boiled H1310 my son H1121 NMS-1MS , and did eat H398 him : and I said H559 W-VQY1MS unto H413 PREP-3FS her on the next H312 day H3117 B-AMS , Give H5414 thy son H1121 NMS-1MS , that we may eat H398 him : and she hath hid H2244 her son H1121 NMS-1MS .
30 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when the king H4428 D-NMS heard H8085 the words H1697 CMP of the woman H802 D-NFS , that he rent H7167 W-VQY3MS his clothes H899 ; and he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS passed by H5674 upon H5921 PREP the wall H2346 , and the people H5971 looked H7200 W-VIY3MS , and , behold H2009 IJEC , he had sackcloth H8242 within H1004 upon H5921 PREP his flesh H1320 CMS-3MS .
31 Then he said H559 W-VQY3MS , God H430 EDP do H6213 VQY3MS so H3541 and more H3254 also H3541 to me , if H518 PART the head H7218 NMS of Elisha H477 the son H1121 of Shaphat H8202 shall stand H5975 VQY3MS on H5921 PREP-3MS him this day H3117 D-NMS .
32 But Elisha H477 sat H3427 VQPMS in his house H1004 B-CMS-3MS , and the elders H2205 sat H3427 with H854 PREP-3MS him ; and the king sent H7971 W-VQY3MS a man H376 NMS from before H6440 him : but ere H2962 B-ADV the messenger H4397 came H935 VQY3MS to H413 PREP-3MS him , he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS said H559 VQQ3MS to H413 PREP the elders H2205 , See H7200 ye how H3588 CONJ this H2088 D-PMS son H1121 of a murderer H7523 hath sent H7971 VQQ3MS to take away H5493 L-VHFC mine head H7218 CMS-1MS ? look H7200 , when the messenger H4397 cometh H935 , shut H5462 the door H1817 , and hold him fast H3905 at the door H1817 : is not H3808 D-NPAR the sound H6963 CMS of his master H113 \'s feet H7272 behind H310 him ?
33 And while he yet H5750 talked H1696 VPPMS with H5973 PREP-3MP them , behold H2009 IJEC , the messenger H4397 came down H3381 unto H413 PREP-3MS him : and he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Behold H2009 IJEC , this H2063 DPRO evil H7451 D-AFS is of the LORD H3068 EDS ; what H4100 IGAT should I wait H3176 for the LORD H3068 L-EDS any longer H5750 ADV ?
