ULT 2KI Chapter 6

2KI 6 ©

6And the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “Look, please—the place where we are sitting there to your face is too tight for us. 2Please, let us go as far as the Jordan, and let us take from there, each person one beam, and let us make for ourselves there a place to sit there.” And he said, “Go.” 3And the one said, “Be resolved, please, and go with your servants.” And he said, “I myself will go.” 4And he went with them. And they came to the Jordan, and they cut down the trees. 5And it happened, the one was felling the beam, and the iron fell into the water. And he cried out, and he said, “Alas, my lord, but it was lent!” 6And the man of God said, “Where did it fall?” And he made him see the place, and he cut off a tree, and he threw it to there, and the iron floated. 7And he said, “Lift it up for yourself.” And he stretched out his hand, and he took it.

8And the king of Aram was fighting against Israel. And he consulted with his servants, saying, “Make my camp to such and such a place.” 9And the man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying, “Beware of passing by that place, for there Aram is coming down.” 10And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God had said to him, and he warned it, and he was guarded there not once and not twice. 11And the heart of the king of Aram became stormy concerning this matter. And he called to his servants, and he said to them, “Will you not inform me who from those belonging to us is to the king of Israel?” 12And one from his servants said, “No, my lord the king, for Elisha the prophet who is in Israel informs the king of Israel the things that you speak in the room of your bed.” 13And he said, “Go and see where he is, and I will send, and I will take him.” And it was declared to him, saying, “Look, in Dothan.”

14And he sent to there horses and a chariot and a heavy army, and they came at night, and they surrounded around the city. 15And the one serving the man of God rose early, getting up, and he went out, and look—an army surrounding the city and horse and chariot. And his young man said to him, “Oh, my lord! What will we do?” 16And he said, “Do not fear, for more numerous are those with us than those with them.” 17And Elisha prayed, and he said, “Yahweh, please open his eyes, and he will see.” And Yahweh opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw, and look—the mountain was full of horses and a chariot of fire was all around Elisha. 18And they came down to him, and Elisha prayed to Yahweh, and he said, “Please, strike this nation with blinding light.” And he struck them with blinding light according to the word of Elisha. 19And Elisha said to them, “This is not the way, and this is not the city. Walk after me, and let me lead you to the man whom you seek.” And he led them to Samaria.

20And it happened, when they came to Samaria, and Elisha said, “Yahweh, open the eyes of these people, and they will see.” And Yahweh opened their eyes, and they saw, and look—in the midst of Samaria. 21And the king of Israel said to Elisha when he saw them, “Will I strike them? Will I strike them, my father?” 22And he said, “Do not strike them. Those who you took captive with your sword and with your bow—would you strike them? Put bread and water to their faces, and they will eat, and they will drink, and they will go to their lord.” 23And he prepared a great feast for them, and they ate and they drank, and he sent them, and they went to their lord. And the troops of Aram did not continue any longer to come into the land of Israel.

24And it happened after thus, and Ben-Hadad the king of Aram assembled all of his camp, and he went up, and he laid seige against Samaria. 25And a great famine was in Samaria, and look—laying siege against it, until a head of a donkey was in exchange for 80 silver, and a fourth of the kab of doves droppings was in exchange for five silver. 26And it happened, the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, and a woman cried out to him, saying, “Save, my lord, the king!” 27And he said, “Yahweh will not save you—from where will I save you? From the threshing floor or from the winepress?” 28And the king said to her, “What belongs to you?” And she said, “This woman said to me, ‘Give your son, and we will eat him today, and my son we will eat tomorrow.’ ” 29And we boiled my son, and we ate him. And I said to her on the next day, “Give your son, and we will eat him.” But she has hidden her son. 30And it happened, when the king heard the words of the woman, and he tore his clothes (and he was passing by on the wall). And the people saw, and look—sackcloth was on his skin, from beneath. 31And he said, “Thus may God do to me, and thus may continue, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat stands on him today.”

32And Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. And he sent a man from before his face, before the messenger came to him, and he himself said to the elders, “Do you see that this son of a murderer has sent to take off my head? Look, when the messenger comes, shut the door, and push him with the door. Is that not the sound of the feet of his lord behind him?” 33He was still speaking with them, and look—the messenger was coming down to him. And he said, “Look—this disaster is from Yahweh. Why will I hope for Yahweh any longer?”
