1 And|strong="H3068" Elisha said|strong="H1697", Hear|strong="H8085" ye|strong="H8085" the|strong="H8085" word|strong="H1697" of|strong="H3068" Jehovah|strong="H3068": thus|strong="H3541" saith Jehovah|strong="H3068", Tomorrow|strong="H4279" about|strong="H1697" this|strong="H3541" time|strong="H6256" shall|strong="H3068" a|strong="H3068" measure|strong="H5429" of|strong="H3068" fine|strong="H5560" flour|strong="H5560" be|strong="H1697" sold for|strong="H3068" a|strong="H3068" shekel|strong="H8255", and|strong="H3068" two measures|strong="H5429" of|strong="H3068" barley|strong="H8184" for|strong="H3068" a|strong="H3068" shekel|strong="H8255", in|strong="H3068" the|strong="H8085" gate|strong="H8179" of|strong="H3068" Samaria|strong="H8111".
2 Then|strong="H6030" the|strong="H5921" captain|strong="H7991" on|strong="H5921" whose|strong="H8033" hand|strong="H3027" the|strong="H5921" king|strong="H4428" leaned|strong="H8172" answered|strong="H6030" the|strong="H5921" man|strong="H2088" of|strong="H4428" God|strong="H3068", and|strong="H3068" said|strong="H1697", Behold|strong="H2009", if|strong="H2005" Jehovah|strong="H3068" should|strong="H3068" make|strong="H6213" windows in|strong="H5921" heaven|strong="H8064", might|strong="H3068" this|strong="H2088" thing|strong="H1697" be|strong="H1961"? And|strong="H3068" he|strong="H8033" said|strong="H1697", Behold|strong="H2009", thou|strong="H6213" shalt see|strong="H7200" it|strong="H5921" with|strong="H3068" thine|strong="H6213" eyes|strong="H5869", but|strong="H3808" shalt not|strong="H3808" eat thereof|strong="H8033".
3 Now|strong="H1961" there|strong="H1961" were|strong="H1961" four leprous|strong="H6879" men at|strong="H3427" the|strong="H5704" entrance|strong="H6607" of|strong="H3427" the|strong="H5704" gate|strong="H8179": and|strong="H3427" they|strong="H5704" said one|strong="H1961" to|strong="H5704" another|strong="H7453", Why|strong="H4100" sit|strong="H3427" we|strong="H3068" here|strong="H6311" until|strong="H5704" we|strong="H3068" die|strong="H4191"?
4 If we|strong="H3068" say, We|strong="H6258" will|strong="H5892" enter into|strong="H3212" the|strong="H8033" city|strong="H5892", then|strong="H6258" the|strong="H8033" famine|strong="H7458" is|strong="H5892" in|strong="H3427" the|strong="H8033" city|strong="H5892", and|strong="H3212" we|strong="H3068" shall|strong="H5892" die|strong="H4191" there|strong="H8033"; and|strong="H3212" if we|strong="H3068" sit|strong="H3427" still|strong="H3427" here|strong="H6311", we|strong="H3068" die|strong="H4191" also|strong="H4191". Now|strong="H6258" therefore|strong="H6258" come|strong="H3212", and|strong="H3212" let|strong="H6258" us|strong="H2421" fall|strong="H5307" unto|strong="H3212" the|strong="H8033" host|strong="H4264" of|strong="H3427" the|strong="H8033" Syrians: if they|strong="H8033" save|strong="H2421" us|strong="H2421" alive|strong="H2421", we|strong="H3068" shall|strong="H5892" live|strong="H3427"; and|strong="H3212" if they|strong="H8033" kill|strong="H4191" us|strong="H2421", we|strong="H3068" shall|strong="H5892" but|strong="H6258" die|strong="H4191".
5 And|strong="H6965" they|strong="H8033" rose|strong="H6965" up|strong="H6965" in|strong="H8033" the|strong="H5704" twilight|strong="H5399", to|strong="H5704" go|strong="H6965" unto|strong="H6965" the|strong="H5704" camp|strong="H4264" of|strong="H4264" the|strong="H5704" Syrians; and|strong="H6965" when|strong="H5704" they|strong="H8033" were|strong="H2009" come|strong="H6965" to|strong="H5704" the|strong="H5704" outermost part|strong="H7097" of|strong="H4264" the|strong="H5704" camp|strong="H4264" of|strong="H4264" the|strong="H5704" Syrians, behold|strong="H2009", there|strong="H8033" was|strong="H4264" no|strong="H6965" man there|strong="H8033".
6 For|strong="H5921" the|strong="H5921" Lord had|strong="H3478" made|strong="H3478" the|strong="H5921" host|strong="H4264" of|strong="H4428" the|strong="H5921" Syrians to|strong="H3478" hear|strong="H8085" a|strong="H3068" noise|strong="H6963" of|strong="H4428" chariots|strong="H7393", and|strong="H3478" a|strong="H3068" noise|strong="H6963" of|strong="H4428" horses|strong="H5483", even|strong="H5921" the|strong="H5921" noise|strong="H6963" of|strong="H4428" a|strong="H3068" great|strong="H1419" host|strong="H4264": and|strong="H3478" they|strong="H5921" said|strong="H8085" one|strong="H8085" to|strong="H3478" another, Lo|strong="H2009", the|strong="H5921" king|strong="H4428" of|strong="H4428" Israel|strong="H3478" hath|strong="H3478" hired|strong="H7936" against|strong="H5921" us|strong="H5921" the|strong="H5921" kings|strong="H4428" of|strong="H4428" the|strong="H5921" Hittites|strong="H2850", and|strong="H3478" the|strong="H5921" kings|strong="H4428" of|strong="H4428" the|strong="H5921" Egyptians|strong="H4714", to|strong="H3478" come|strong="H3478" upon|strong="H5921" us|strong="H5921".
7 Wherefore they|strong="H1931" arose|strong="H6965" and|strong="H6965" fled|strong="H5127" in|strong="H5315" the|strong="H6965" twilight|strong="H5399", and|strong="H6965" left|strong="H5800" their|strong="H5800" tents|strong="H4264", and|strong="H6965" their|strong="H5800" horses|strong="H5483", and|strong="H6965" their|strong="H5800" asses|strong="H2543", even the|strong="H6965" camp|strong="H4264" as|strong="H5315" it|strong="H1931" was|strong="H1931", and|strong="H6965" fled|strong="H5127" for|strong="H5315" their|strong="H5800" life|strong="H5315".
8 And|strong="H3701" when|strong="H5704" these lepers|strong="H6879" came|strong="H3212" to|strong="H5704" the|strong="H5375" outermost part|strong="H7097" of|strong="H4264" the|strong="H5375" camp|strong="H4264", they|strong="H8033" went|strong="H3212" into|strong="H7725" one|strong="H5375" tent, and|strong="H3701" did eat and|strong="H3701" drink|strong="H8354", and|strong="H3701" carried|strong="H5375" thence|strong="H5375" silver|strong="H3701", and|strong="H3701" gold|strong="H2091", and|strong="H3701" raiment, and|strong="H3701" went|strong="H3212" and|strong="H3701" hid|strong="H2934" it|strong="H7725"; and|strong="H3701" they|strong="H8033" came|strong="H3212" back|strong="H7725", and|strong="H3701" entered|strong="H5704" into|strong="H7725" another tent, and|strong="H3701" carried|strong="H5375" thence|strong="H5375" also|strong="H8354", and|strong="H3701" went|strong="H3212" and|strong="H3701" hid|strong="H2934" it|strong="H7725".
9 Then|strong="H6258" they|strong="H3117" said|strong="H3651" one|strong="H2088" to|strong="H5704" another|strong="H7453", We|strong="H3117" do|strong="H6213" not|strong="H3808" well|strong="H3651"; this|strong="H2088" day|strong="H3117" is|strong="H2088" a|strong="H3068" day|strong="H3117" of|strong="H4428" good tidings|strong="H1309", and|strong="H4428" we|strong="H3068" hold|strong="H4672" our|strong="H6213" peace|strong="H2814": if|strong="H3651" we|strong="H3068" tarry|strong="H2442" till|strong="H5704" the|strong="H6213" morning|strong="H1242" light, punishment|strong="H5771" will|strong="H4428" overtake|strong="H4672" us|strong="H5046"; now|strong="H6258" therefore|strong="H3651" come|strong="H3212", let|strong="H6258" us|strong="H5046" go|strong="H3212" and|strong="H4428" tell|strong="H5046" the|strong="H6213" king|strong="H4428"’s household|strong="H1004".
10 So|strong="H7121" they|strong="H1992" came and|strong="H6963" called|strong="H7121" unto|strong="H7121" the|strong="H3588" porter|strong="H7778" of|strong="H5892" the|strong="H3588" city|strong="H5892"; and|strong="H6963" they|strong="H1992" told|strong="H5046" them|strong="H1992", saying|strong="H6963", We|strong="H3588" came to|strong="H7121" the|strong="H3588" camp|strong="H4264" of|strong="H5892" the|strong="H3588" Syrians, and|strong="H6963", behold|strong="H2009", there|strong="H8033" was|strong="H5892" no man there|strong="H8033", neither voice|strong="H6963" of|strong="H5892" man, but|strong="H3588" the|strong="H3588" horses|strong="H5483" tied, and|strong="H6963" the|strong="H3588" asses|strong="H2543" tied, and|strong="H6963" the|strong="H3588" tents|strong="H4264" as|strong="H3588" they|strong="H1992" were|strong="H1992".

They|strong="H3588" know|strong="H3045" that|strong="H3588" we|strong="H3068" are|strong="H5892" hungry|strong="H7457"; therefore|strong="H3588" are|strong="H5892" they|strong="H3588" gone|strong="H3318" out|strong="H3318" of|strong="H4428" the|strong="H3588" camp|strong="H4264" to|strong="H3318" hide|strong="H2247" themselves|strong="H6213" in|strong="H6213" the|strong="H3588" field|strong="H7704", saying, When|strong="H3588" they|strong="H3588" come|strong="H3318" out|strong="H3318" of|strong="H4428" the|strong="H3588" city|strong="H5892", we|strong="H3068" shall|strong="H4428" take|strong="H8610" them|strong="H6213" alive|strong="H2416", and|strong="H6965" get|strong="H6965" into|strong="H6213" the|strong="H3588" city|strong="H5892".
13 And|strong="H3478" one|strong="H3605" of|strong="H5650" his|strong="H3605" servants|strong="H5650" answered|strong="H6030" and|strong="H3478" said|strong="H6030", Let|strong="H7971" some|strong="H4480" take|strong="H3947", I|strong="H2005" pray|strong="H4994" thee|strong="H3947", five|strong="H2568" of|strong="H5650" the|strong="H3605" horses|strong="H5483" that|strong="H7200" remain|strong="H7604", which|strong="H3478" are|strong="H3478" left|strong="H7604" in|strong="H3478" the|strong="H3605" city (behold|strong="H2009", they|strong="H3478" are|strong="H3478" as|strong="H3605" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" multitude|strong="H1995" of|strong="H5650" Israel|strong="H3478" that|strong="H7200" are|strong="H3478" left|strong="H7604" in|strong="H3478" it|strong="H7200"; behold|strong="H2009", they|strong="H3478" are|strong="H3478" as|strong="H3605" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" multitude|strong="H1995" of|strong="H5650" Israel|strong="H3478" that|strong="H7200" are|strong="H3478" consumed|strong="H8552"); and|strong="H3478" let|strong="H7971" us|strong="H4994" send|strong="H7971" and|strong="H3478" see|strong="H7200".
14 They|strong="H3947" took|strong="H3947" therefore|strong="H7971" two|strong="H8147" chariots|strong="H7393" with|strong="H3212" horses|strong="H5483"; and|strong="H7971" the|strong="H7200" king|strong="H4428" sent|strong="H7971" after|strong="H7200" the|strong="H7200" host|strong="H4264" of|strong="H4428" the|strong="H7200" Syrians, saying, Go|strong="H3212" and|strong="H7971" see|strong="H7200".
