2KI-6:15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early,

and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with

horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my

master! how shall we do? <alas> <behold> <both> <chariots>

<with>

2KI-6:16 And he answered, Fear not:for they that [be] with us

[are] more than they that [be] with them. <answered> <fear>

2KI-6:17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open

his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the

young man; and he saw:and, behold, the mountain [was] full of

horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha. <behold>

2KI-6:18 And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the

LORD, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness.

And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.

2KI-6:19 And Elisha said unto them, This [is] not the way,

neither [is] this the city:follow me, and I will bring you to

the man whom ye seek. But he led them to Samaria. <bring> <city>

2KI-6:20 And it came to pass, when they were come into Samaria,

that Elisha said, LORD, open the eyes of these [men], that they

may see. And the LORD opened their eyes, and they saw; and,

behold, [they were] in the midst of Samaria. <behold> <came>

2KI-6:21 And the king of Israel said unto Elisha, when he saw

them, My father, shall I smite [them]? shall I smite [them]?

2KI-6:22 And he answered, Thou shalt not smite [them]:wouldest

thou smite those whom thou hast taken captive with thy sword and

with thy bow? set bread and water before them, that they may eat

and drink, and go to their master. <answered> <before> <bow>

2KI-6:23 And he prepared great provision for them:and when they

had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their

master. So the bands of Syria came no more into the land of

Israel. <away> <bands> <came> <drunk> <eaten> <great> <had>

2KI-6:24 And it came to pass after this, that Benhadad king of

Syria gathered all his host, and went up, and besieged Samaria.

2KI-6:25 And there was a great famine in Samaria:and, behold,

they besieged it, until an ass's head was [sold] for fourscore

[pieces] of silver, and the fourth part of a cab of dove's dung

for five [pieces] of silver. <behold> <besieged> <cab> <dung>

2KI-6:26 And as the king of Israel was passing by upon the wall,

there cried a woman unto him, saying, Help, my lord, O king.

2KI-6:27 And he said, If the LORD do not help thee, whence shall

I help thee? out of the barnfloor, or out of the winepress?

2KI-6:28 And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she

answered, This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat

him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow. <aileth>

2KI-6:29 So we boiled my son, and did eat him:and I said unto

her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him:and she

hath hid her son. <boiled> <day> <did> <eat> <give> <hath> <hid>

2KI-6:30 And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of

the woman, that he rent his clothes; and he passed by upon the

wall, and the people looked, and, behold, [he had] sackcloth

within upon his flesh. <behold> <came> <clothes> <flesh> <had>

2KI-6:31 Then he said, God do so and more also to me, if the

head of Elisha the son of Shaphat shall stand on him this day.

2KI-6:32 But Elisha sat in his house, and the elders sat with

him; and [the king] sent a man from before him:but ere the

messenger came to him, he said to the elders, See ye how this

son of a murderer hath sent to take away mine head? look, when

the messenger cometh, shut the door, and hold him fast at the

door:[is] not the sound of his master's feet behind him? <away>

2KI-6:33 And while he yet talked with them, behold, the

messenger came down unto him:and he said, Behold, this evil [is]

of the LORD; what should I wait for the LORD any longer? <any>

2KI-7:1 Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus

saith the LORD, 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. <barley> <elisha> <fine>

2KI-7:2 Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the

man of God, and said, Behold, [if] the LORD would make windows

in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt

see [it] with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof. <answered>

2KI-7:3 And there were four leprous men at the entering in of

the gate:and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we

die? <another> <entering> <four> <gate> <here> <leprous> <men>

2KI-7:4 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. <alive> <also> <city> <come>

2KI-7:5 And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of

the Syrians:and when they were come to the uttermost part of the

camp of Syria, behold, [there was] no man there. <behold> <camp>

2KI-7:6 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. <against> <another>

2KI-7:7 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. <arose> <asses> <camp> <even>

2KI-7:8 And when these lepers came to the uttermost 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 came again, and entered into another tent, and carried

thence [also], and went and hid [it]. <again> <another> <came>

2KI-7:9 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, some mischief will come upon us:now

therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household.

2KI-7:10 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

horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they [were].

2KI-7:11 And he called the porters; and they told [it] to the

king's house within. <called> <house> <porters> <told> <within>

2KI-7:12 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 [be] 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 catch them alive, and get into the

city. <alive> <are> <arose> <camp> <catch> <city> <come> <done>

2KI-7:13 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, [I say], they [are] even as

all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed:) and let

us send and see. <all> <answered> <are> <behold> <city> <even>

<which>

2KI-7:14 They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king

sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see. <after>

2KI-7:15 And they went after them unto 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. <after> <all> <away> <cast> <full> <garments> <had>

2KI-7:16 And the people went out, and spoiled the tents 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

the LORD. <barley> <fine> <flour> <lord> <measure> <measures>

<word>

2KI-7:17 And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned

to have the charge of the gate:and the people trode upon him in

the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spake

when the king came down to him. <appointed> <came> <charge>

2KI-7:18 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:<barley> <came> <fine> <flour> <gate>

2KI-7:19 And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now,

behold, [if] the LORD 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. <answered> <behold> <eat>

2KI-7:20 And so it fell out unto him:for the people trode upon

him in the gate, and he died. <died> <fell> <gate> <him>

2KI-8:1 Then spake Elisha unto the woman, whose son he had

restored to life, saying, Arise, and go thou and thine household,

and sojourn wheresoever thou canst sojourn:for the LORD hath

called for a famine; and it shall also come upon the land seven

years. <also> <arise> <called> <canst> <come> <elisha> <famine>

2KI-8:2 And the woman arose, and did after the saying of the man

of God:and she went with her household, and sojourned in the

land of the Philistines seven years. <after> <arose> <did> <god>

2KI-8:3 And it came to pass at the seven years' end, that the

woman returned out of the land of the Philistines:and she went

forth to cry unto the king for her house and for her land.

2KI-8:4 And the king talked with Gehazi the servant of the man

of God, saying, Tell me, I pray thee, all the great things that

Elisha hath done. <all> <done> <elisha> <gehazi> <god> <great>

2KI-8:5 And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he

had restored a dead body to life, that, behold, the woman, whose

son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and

for her land. And Gehazi said, My lord, O king, this [is] the

woman, and this [is] her son, whom Elisha restored to life.

2KI-8:6 And when the king asked the woman, she told him. So the

king appointed unto her a certain officer, saying, Restore all

that [was] hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day

that she left the land, even until now. <all> <appointed>

2KI-8:7 And Elisha came to Damascus; and Benhadad the king of

Syria was sick; and it was told him, saying, The man of God is

come hither. <benhadad> <came> <come> <damascus> <elisha> <god>

2KI-8:8 And the king said unto Hazael, Take a present in thine

hand, and go, meet the man of God, and inquire of the LORD by

him, saying, Shall I recover of this disease? <go> <god> <hand>

2KI-8:9 So Hazael went to meet him, and took a present with him,

even of every good thing of Damascus, forty camels' burden, and

came and stood before him, and said, Thy son Benhadad king of

Syria hath sent me to thee, saying, Shall I recover of this

disease? <before> <benhadad> <burden> <came> <damascus> <even>

2KI-8:10 And Elisha said unto him, Go, say unto him, Thou mayest

certainly recover:howbeit the LORD hath showed me that he shall

surely die. <certainly> <die> <elisha> <go> <hath> <him>

2KI-8:11 And he settled his countenance stedfastly, until he was

ashamed:and the man of God wept. <ashamed> <countenance> <god>

2KI-8:12 And Hazael said, Why weepeth my lord? And he answered,

Because I know the evil that thou wilt do unto the children of

Israel:their strong holds wilt thou set on fire, and their young

men wilt thou slay with the sword, and wilt dash their children,

and rip up their women with child. <answered> <because> <child>

2KI-8:13 And Hazael said, But what, [is] thy servant a dog, that

he should do this great thing? And Elisha answered, The LORD

hath showed me that thou [shalt be] king over Syria. <answered>

2KI-8:14 So he departed from Elisha, and came to his master; who

said to him, What said Elisha to thee? And he answered, He told

me [that] thou shouldest surely recover. <answered> <came>

2KI-8:15 And it came to pass on the morrow, that he took a thick

cloth, and dipped [it] in water, and spread [it] on his face, so

that he died:and Hazael reigned in his stead. <came> <cloth>

2KI-8:16 And in the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of

Israel, Jehoshaphat [being] then king of Judah, Jehoram the son

of Jehoshaphat king of Judah began to reign. <ahab> <began>

2KI-8:17 Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign;

and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. <began> <eight>

2KI-8:18 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did

the house of Ahab:for the daughter of Ahab was his wife:and he

did evil in the sight of the LORD. <ahab> <daughter> <did>

<wife>

2KI-8:19 Yet the LORD would not destroy Judah for David his

servant's sake, as he promised him to give him alway a light,

[and] to his children. <alway> <children> <david> <destroy>

<yet>

2KI-8:20 In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah,

and made a king over themselves. <days> <edom> <hand> <judah>

2KI-8:21 So Joram went over to Zair, and all the chariots with

him:and he rose by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed

him about, and the captains of the chariots:and the people fled

into their tents. <all> <captains> <chariots> <compassed>

2KI-8:22 Yet Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah unto

this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time. <day> <edom>

2KI-8:23 And the rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did,

[are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the

kings of Judah? <all> <book> <chronicles> <did> <joram> <kings>

2KI-8:24 And Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with

his fathers in the city of David:and Ahaziah his son reigned in

his stead. <ahaziah> <buried> <city> <david> <fathers> <joram>

2KI-8:25 In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of

Israel did Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah begin to

reign. <ahab> <ahaziah> <begin> <did> <israel> <jehoram> <joram>

2KI-8:26 Two and twenty years old [was] Ahaziah when he began to

reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother's

name [was] Athaliah, the daughter of Omri king of Israel.

2KI-8:27 And he walked in the way of the house of Ahab, and did

evil in the sight of the LORD, as [did] the house of Ahab:for he

[was] the son in law of the house of Ahab. <ahab> <did> <evil>

2KI-8:28 And he went with Joram the son of Ahab to the war

against Hazael king of Syria in Ramothgilead; and the Syrians

wounded Joram. <against> <ahab> <hazael> <joram> <king>

2KI-8:29 And king Joram went back to be healed in Jezreel of the

wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought

against Hazael king of Syria. And Ahaziah the son of Jehoram

king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel,

because he was sick. <against> <ahab> <ahaziah> <back> <because>

2KI-9:1 And Elisha the prophet called one of the children of the

prophets, and said unto him, Gird up thy loins, and take this

box of oil in thine hand, and go to Ramothgilead:<box> <called>

2KI-9:2 And when thou comest thither, look out there Jehu the

son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him

arise up from among his brethren, and carry him to an inner

chamber; <among> <arise> <brethren> <carry> <comest> <go> <him>

2KI-9:3 Then take the box of oil, and pour [it] on his head, and

say, Thus saith the LORD, I have anointed thee king over Israel.

Then open the door, and flee, and tarry not. <anointed> <box>

2KI-9:4 So the young man, [even] the young man the prophet, went

to Ramothgilead. <man> <prophet> <ramothgilead> <so> <went>

<young>

2KI-9:5 And when he came, behold, the captains of the host

[were] sitting; and he said, I have an errand to thee, O captain.

And Jehu said, Unto which of all us? And he said, To thee, O

captain. <all> <behold> <came> <captain> <captains> <errand>

2KI-9:6 And he arose, and went into the house; and he poured the

oil on his head, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of

Israel, I have anointed thee king over the people of the LORD,

[even] over Israel. <anointed> <arose> <god> <have> <head> <him>

2KI-9:7 And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy master, that

I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the

blood of all the servants of the LORD, at the hand of Jezebel.

2KI-9:8 For the whole house of Ahab shall perish:and I will cut

off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is

shut up and left in Israel:<against> <ahab> <cut> <him> <house>

2KI-9:9 And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of

Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son

of Ahijah:<ahab> <baasha> <house> <jeroboam> <like> <make>

2KI-9:10 And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the portion of

Jezreel, and [there shall be] none to bury [her]. And he opened

the door, and fled. <bury> <dogs> <door> <eat> <fled> <jezebel>

2KI-9:11 Then Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord:and

[one] said unto him, [Is] all well? wherefore came this mad

[fellow] to thee? And he said unto them, Ye know the man, and

his communication. <all> <came> <communication> <forth> <him>

2KI-9:12 And they said, [It is] false; tell us now. And he said,

Thus and thus spake he to me, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I

have anointed thee king over Israel. <anointed> <false> <have>

2KI-9:13 Then they hasted, and took every man his garment, and

put [it] under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with

trumpets, saying, Jehu is king. <blew> <every> <garment>

2KI-9:14 So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi

conspired against Joram. (Now Joram had kept Ramothgilead, he

and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria. <against> <all>

<syria>

2KI-9:15 But king Joram was returned to be healed in Jezreel of

the wounds which the Syrians had given him, when he fought with

Hazael king of Syria. ) And Jehu said, If it be your minds,

[then] let none go forth [nor] escape out of the city to go to

tell [it] in Jezreel. <city> <escape> <forth> <fought> <given>

2KI-9:16 So Jehu rode in a chariot, and went to Jezreel; for

Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah was come down to see

Joram. <ahaziah> <chariot> <come> <down> <jehu> <jezreel>

2KI-9:17 And there stood a watchman on the tower in Jezreel, and

he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, I see a

company. And Joram said, Take an horseman, and send to meet them,

and let him say, [Is it] peace? <came> <company> <him>

2KI-9:18 So there went one on horseback to meet him, and said,

Thus saith the king, [Is it] peace? And Jehu said, What hast

thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman

told, saying, The messenger came to them, but he cometh not

again. <again> <behind> <came> <cometh> <do> <hast> <him>

2KI-9:19 Then he sent out a second on horseback, which came to

them, and said, Thus saith the king, [Is it] peace? And Jehu

answered, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.

2KI-9:20 And the watchman told, saying, He came even unto them,

and cometh not again:and the driving [is] like the driving of

Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he driveth furiously. <again> <came>

2KI-9:21 And Joram said, Make ready. And his chariot was made

ready. And Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went

out, each in his chariot, and they went out against Jehu, and

met him in the portion of Naboth the Jezreelite. <against>

2KI-9:22 And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said,

[Is it] peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the

whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts [are so]

many? <answered> <came> <jehu> <jezebel> <joram> <long> <mother>

2KI-9:23 And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to

Ahaziah, [There is] treachery, O Ahaziah. <ahaziah> <fled>

2KI-9:24 And Jehu drew a bow with his full strength, and smote

Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow went out at his heart,

and he sunk down in his chariot. <arms> <arrow> <between> <bow>

2KI-9:25 Then said [Jehu] to Bidkar his captain, Take up, [and]

cast him in the portion of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite:

for remember how that, when I and thou rode together after Ahab

his father, the LORD laid this burden upon him; <after> <ahab>

2KI-9:26 Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and

the blood of his sons, saith the LORD; and I will requite thee

in this plat, saith the LORD. Now therefore take [and] cast him

into the plat [of ground], according to the word of the LORD.

2KI-9:27 But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw [this], he fled

by the way of the garden house. And Jehu followed after him, and

said, Smite him also in the chariot. [And they did so] at the

going up to Gur, which [is] by Ibleam. And he fled to Megiddo,

and died there. <after> <ahaziah> <also> <chariot> <did> <died>

2KI-9:28 And his servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem,

and buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of

David. <buried> <carried> <chariot> <city> <david> <fathers>

2KI-9:29 And in the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab began

Ahaziah to reign over Judah. <ahab> <ahaziah> <began> <eleventh>

2KI-9:30 And when Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard [of

it]; and she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked

out at a window. <come> <face> <head> <heard> <jehu> <jezebel>

2KI-9:31 And as Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, [Had]

Zimri peace, who slew his master? <entered> <gate> <jehu>

2KI-9:32 And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who

[is] on my side? who? And there looked out to him two [or] three

eunuchs. <eunuchs> <face> <him> <lifted> <looked> <on> <said>

2KI-9:33 And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down:and

[some] of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses:

and he trode her under foot. <blood> <down> <foot> <horses> <on>

2KI-9:34 And when he was come in, he did eat and drink, and said,

Go, see now this cursed [woman], and bury her:for she [is] a

king's daughter. <bury> <come> <cursed> <daughter> <did> <drink>

2KI-9:35 And they went to bury her:but they found no more of her

than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of [her] hands.

<went>

2KI-9:36 Wherefore they came again, and told him. And he said,

This [is] the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servant

Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel shall

dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel:<again> <came> <dogs> <eat>

2KI-9:37 And the carcase of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the

face of the field in the portion of Jezreel; [so] that they

shall not say, This [is] Jezebel. <carcase> <dung> <face>

2KI-10:1 And Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote

letters, and sent to Samaria, unto the rulers of Jezreel, to the

elders, and to them that brought up Ahab's [children], saying,

2KI-10:2 Now as soon as this letter cometh to you, seeing your

master's sons [are] with you, and [there are] with you chariots

and horses, a fenced city also, and armour; <also> <are>

2KI-10:3 Look even out the best and meetest of your master's

sons, and set [him] on his father's throne, and fight for your

master's house. <best> <even> <fight> <house> <look> <meetest>

2KI-10:4 But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Behold, two

kings stood not before him:how then shall we stand? <afraid>

2KI-10:5 And he that [was] over the house, and he that [was]

over the city, the elders also, and the bringers up [of the

children], sent to Jehu, saying, We [are] thy servants, and will

do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not make any king:do thou

[that which is] good in thine eyes. <all> <also> <any> <bid>

<will>

2KI-10:6 Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying,

If ye [be] mine, and [if] ye will hearken unto my voice, take ye

the heads of the men your master's sons, and come to me to

Jezreel by to morrow this time. Now the king's sons, [being]

seventy persons, [were] with the great men of the city, which

brought them up. <brought> <city> <come> <great> <heads>

2KI-10:7 And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that

they took the king's sons, and slew seventy persons, and put

their heads in baskets, and sent him [them] to Jezreel.

2KI-10:8 And there came a messenger, and told him, saying, They

have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said, Lay ye

them in two heaps at the entering in of the gate until the

morning. <brought> <came> <entering> <gate> <have> <heads>

2KI-10:9 And it came to pass in the morning, that he went out,

and stood, and said to all the people, Ye [be] righteous:behold,
