THE FIRST BOOK OF THE
KINGS
11 Kings1 1:1
Now
king
David
was
old
and
stricken
in
years;
and
they
covered
him
with
clothes,
but
he
gat
no
heat.
2 1:2
Wherefore
his
servants
said
unto
him,
Let
there
be
sought
for
my
lord
the
king
a
young
virgin:
and
let
her
stand
before
the
king,
and
cherish
him;
and
let
her
lie
in
thy
bosom,
that
my
lord
the
king
may
get
heat.
3 1:3
So
they
sought
for
a
fair
damsel
throughout
all
the
borders
of
Israel,
and
found
Abishag
the
Shunammite,
and
brought
her
to
the
king.
4 1:4
And
the
damsel
was
very
fair;
and
she
cherished
the
king,
and
ministered
to
him;
but
the
king
knew
her
not.
5 1:5
Then
Adonijah
the
son
of
Haggith
exalted
himself,
saying,
I
will
be
king:
and
he
prepared
him
chariots
and
horsemen,
and
fifty
men
to
run
before
him.
6 1:6
And
his
father
had
not
displeased
him
at
any
time
in
saying,
Why
hast
thou
done
so?
and
he
was
also
a
very
goodly
man;
and
he
was
born
after
Absalom.
7 1:7
And
he
conferred
with
Joab
the
son
of
Zeruiah,
and
with
Abiathar
the
priest:
and
they
following
Adonijah
helped
him.
8 1:8
But
Zadok
the
priest,
and
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada,
and
Nathan
the
prophet,
and
Shimei,
and
Rei,
and
the
mighty
men
that
belonged
to
David,
were
not
with
Adonijah.
9 1:9
And
Adonijah
slew
sheep
and
oxen
and
fatlings
by
the
stone
of
Zoheleth,
which
is
beside
En-rogel;
and
he
called
all
his
brethren,
the
king’s
sons,
and
all
the
men
of
Judah,
the
king’s
servants:
10 1:10
but
Nathan
the
prophet,
and
Benaiah,
and
the
mighty
men,
and
Solomon
his
brother,
he
called
not.
11 1:11
Then
Nathan
spake
unto
Bath-sheba
the
mother
of
Solomon,
saying,
Hast
thou
not
heard
that
Adonijah
the
son
of
Haggith
doth
reign,
and
David
our
lord
knoweth
it
not?
12 1:12
Now
therefore
come,
let
me,
I
pray
thee,
give
thee
counsel,
that
thou
mayest
save
thine
own
life,
and
the
life
of
thy
son
Solomon.
13 1:13
Go
and
get
thee
in
unto
king
David,
and
say
unto
him,
Didst
not
thou,
my
lord,
O
king,
swear
unto
thy
handmaid,
saying,
Assuredly
Solomon
thy
son
shall
reign
after
me,
and
he
shall
sit
upon
my
throne?
why
then
doth
Adonijah
reign?
14 1:14
Behold,
while
thou
yet
talkest
there
with
the
king,
I
also
will
come
in
after
thee,
and
confirm
thy
words.
15 1:15
And
Bath-sheba
went
in
unto
the
king
into
the
chamber:
and
the
king
was
very
old;
and
Abishag
the
Shunammite
was
ministering
unto
the
king.
16 1:16
And
Bath-sheba
bowed,
and
did
obeisance
unto
the
king.
And
the
king
said,
What
wouldest
thou?
17 1:17
And
she
said
unto
him,
My
lord,
thou
swarest
by
Jehovah
thy
God
unto
thy
handmaid,
saying,
Assuredly
Solomon
thy
son
shall
reign
after
me,
and
he
shall
sit
upon
my
throne.
18 1:18
And
now,
behold,
Adonijah
reigneth;
and
thou,
my
lord
the
king,
knowest
it
not:
19 1:19
and
he
hath
slain
oxen
and
fatlings
and
sheep
in
abundance,
and
hath
called
all
the
sons
of
the
king,
and
Abiathar
the
priest,
and
Joab
the
captain
of
the
host;
but
Solomon
thy
servant
hath
he
not
called.
20 1:20
And
thou,
my
lord
the
king,
the
eyes
of
all
Israel
are
upon
thee,
that
thou shouldest
tell
them
who
shall
sit
on
the
throne
of
my
lord
the
king
after
him.
21 1:21
Otherwise
it
will
come
to
pass,
when
my
lord
the
king
shall
sleep
with
his
fathers,
that
I
and
my
son
Solomon
shall
be
counted
offenders.
22 1:22
And,
lo,
while
she
yet
talked
with
the
king,
Nathan
the
prophet
came
in.
23 1:23
And
they
told
the
king,
saying,
Behold,
Nathan
the
prophet.
And
when
he
was
come
in
before
the
king,
he
bowed
himself
before
the
king
with
his
face
to
the
ground.
24 1:24
And
Nathan
said,
My
lord,
O
king,
hast
thou
said,
Adonijah
shall
reign
after
me,
and
he
shall
sit
upon
my
throne?
25 1:25
For
he
is
gone
down
this
day,
and
hath
slain
oxen
and
fatlings
and
sheep
in
abundance,
and
hath
called
all
the
king’s
sons,
and
the
captains
of
the
host,
and
Abiathar
the
priest;
and,
behold,
they
are
eating
and
drinking
before
him,
and
say,
Long
live
king
Adonijah.
26 1:26
But
me,
even
me
thy
servant,
and
Zadok
the
priest,
and
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada,
and
thy
servant
Solomon,
hath
he
not
called.
27 1:27
Is
this
thing
done
by
my
lord
the
king,
and
thou
hast
not
showed
unto
thy
servants
who
should
sit
on
the
throne
of
my
lord
the
king
after
him?
28 1:28
Then
king
David
answered
and
said,
Call
to
me
Bath-sheba.
And
she
came
into
the
king’s
presence,
and
stood
before
the
king.
29 1:29
And
the
king
sware,
and
said,
As
Jehovah
liveth,
who
hath
redeemed
my
soul
out
of
all
adversity,
30 1:30
verily
as
I
sware
unto
thee
by
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
saying,
Assuredly
Solomon
thy
son
shall
reign
after
me,
and
he
shall
sit
upon
my
throne
in
my
stead;
verily
so
will
I
do
this
day.
31 1:31
Then
Bath-sheba
bowed
with
her
face
to
the
earth,
and
did
obeisance
to
the
king,
and
said,
Let
my
lord
king
David
live
for
ever.
32 1:32
And
king
David
said,
Call
to
me
Zadok
the
priest,
and
Nathan
the
prophet,
and
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada.
And
they
came
before
the
king.
33 1:33
And
the
king
said
unto
them,
Take
with
you
the
servants
of
your
lord,
and
cause
Solomon
my
son
to
ride
upon
mine
own
mule,
and
bring
him
down
to
Gihon:
34 1:34
and
let
Zadok
the
priest
and
Nathan
the
prophet
anoint
him
there
king
over
Israel;
and
blow
ye
the
trumpet,
and
say,
Long
live
king
Solomon.
35 1:35
Then
ye
shall
come
up
after
him,
and
he
shall
come
and
sit
upon
my
throne;
for
he
shall
be
king
in
my
stead;
and
I
have
appointed
him
to
be
prince
over
Israel
and
over
Judah.
36 1:36
And
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada
answered
the
king,
and
said,
Amen:
Jehovah,
the
God
of
my
lord
the
king,
say
so
too.
37 1:37
As
Jehovah
hath
been
with
my
lord
the
king,
even
so
be
he
with
Solomon,
and
make
his
throne
greater
than
the
throne
of
my
lord
king
David.
38 1:38
So
Zadok
the
priest,
and
Nathan
the
prophet,
and
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada,
and
the
Cherethites
and
the
Pelethites,
went
down,
and
caused
Solomon
to
ride
upon
king
David’s
mule,
and
brought
him
to
Gihon.
39 1:39
And
Zadok
the
priest
took
the
horn
of
oil
out
of
the
Tent,
and
anointed
Solomon.
And
they
blew
the
trumpet;
and
all
the
people
said,
Long
live
king
Solomon.
40 1:40
And
all
the
people
came
up
after
him,
and
the
people
piped
with
pipes,
and
rejoiced
with
great
joy,
so
that
the
earth
rent
with
the
sound
of
them.
41 1:41
And
Adonijah
and
all
the
guests
that
were
with
him
heard
it
as
they
had
made
an
end
of
eating.
And
when
Joab
heard
the
sound
of
the
trumpet,
he
said,
Wherefore
is
this
noise
of
the
city
being
in
an
uproar?
42 1:42
While
he
yet
spake,
behold,
Jonathan
the
son
of
Abiathar
the
priest
came:
and
Adonijah
said,
Come
in;
for
thou
art
a
worthy
man,
and
bringest
good
tidings.
43 1:43
And
Jonathan
answered
and
said
to
Adonijah,
Verily
our
lord
king
David
hath
made
Solomon
king:
44 1:44
and
the
king
hath
sent
with
him
Zadok
the
priest,
and
Nathan
the
prophet,
and
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada,
and
the
Cherethites
and
the
Pelethites;
and
they
have
caused
him
to
ride
upon
the
king’s
mule;
45 1:45
and
Zadok
the
priest
and
Nathan
the
prophet
have
anointed
him
king
in
Gihon;
and
they
are
come
up
from
thence
rejoicing,
so
that
the
city
rang
again.
This
is
the
noise
that
ye
have
heard.
46 1:46
And
also
Solomon
sitteth
on
the
throne
of
the
kingdom.
47 1:47
And
moreover
the
king’s
servants
came
to
bless
our
lord
king
David,
saying,
Thy
God
make
the
name
of
Solomon
better
than
thy
name,
and
make
his
throne
greater
than
thy
throne:
and
the
king
bowed
himself
upon
the
bed.
48 1:48
And
also
thus
said
the
king,
Blessed
be
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
who
hath
given
one
to
sit
on
my
throne
this
day,
mine
eyes
even
seeing
it.
49 1:49
And
all
the
guests
of
Adonijah
were
afraid,
and
rose
up,
and
went
every
man
his
way.
50 1:50
And
Adonijah
feared
because
of
Solomon;
and
he
arose,
and
went,
and
caught
hold
on
the
horns
of
the
altar.
51 1:51
And
it
was
told
Solomon,
saying,
Behold,
Adonijah
feareth
king
Solomon;
for,
lo,
he
hath
laid
hold
on
the
horns
of
the
altar,
saying,
Let
king
Solomon
swear
unto
me
first
that
he
will
not
slay
his
servant
with
the
sword.
52 1:52
And
Solomon
said,
If
he
shall
show
himself
a
worthy
man,
there
shall
not
a
hair
of
him
fall
to
the
earth;
but
if
wickedness
be
found
in
him,
he
shall
die.
53 1:53
So
king
Solomon
sent,
and
they
brought
him
down
from
the
altar.
And
he
came
and
did
obeisance
to
king
Solomon;
and
Solomon
said
unto
him,
Go
to
thy
house.
21 2:1
Now
the
days
of
David
drew
nigh
that
he
should
die;
and
he
charged
Solomon
his
son,
saying,
2 2:2
I
am
going
the
way
of
all
the
earth:
be
thou
strong
therefore,
and
show
thyself
a
man;
3 2:3
and
keep
the
charge
of
Jehovah
thy
God,
to
walk
in
his
ways,
to
keep
his
statutes,
and
his
commandments,
and
his
ordinances,
and
his
testimonies,
according
to
that
which
is
written
in
the
law
of
Moses,
that
thou
mayest
prosper
in
all
that
thou
doest,
and
whithersoever
thou
turnest
thyself;
4 2:4
that
Jehovah
may
establish
his
word
which
he
spake
concerning
me,
saying,
If
thy
children
take
heed
to
their
way,
to
walk
before
me
in
truth
with
all
their
heart
and
with
all
their
soul,
there
shall
not
fail
thee (said
he)
a
man
on
the
throne
of
Israel.
5 2:5
Moreover
thou
knowest
also
what
Joab
the
son
of
Zeruiah
did
unto
me,
even
what
he
did
to
the
two
captains
of
the
hosts
of
Israel,
unto
Abner
the
son
of
Ner,
and
unto
Amasa
the
son
of
Jether,
whom
he
slew,
and
shed
the
blood
of
war
in
peace,
and
put
the
blood
of
war
upon
his
girdle
that
was
about
his
loins,
and
in
his
shoes
that
were
on
his
feet.
6 2:6
Do
therefore
according
to
thy
wisdom,
and
let
not
his hoar
head
go
down
to
Sheol
in
peace.
7 2:7
But
show
kindness
unto
the
sons
of
Barzillai
the
Gileadite,
and
let
them
be
of
those
that
eat
at
thy
table;
for
so
they
came
to
me
when
I
fled
from
Absalom
thy
brother.
8 2:8
And,
behold,
there
is
with
thee
Shimei
the
son
of
Gera,
the
Benjamite,
of
Bahurim,
who
cursed
me
with
a
grievous
curse
in
the
day
when
I
went
to
Mahanaim;
but
he
came
down
to
meet
me
at
the
Jordan,
and
I
sware
to
him
by
Jehovah,
saying,
I
will
not
put
thee
to
death
with
the
sword.
9 2:9
Now
therefore
hold
him
not
guiltless,
for
thou
art
a
wise
man;
and
thou
wilt
know
what
thou oughtest
to
do
unto
him,
and
thou shalt
bring
his hoar
head
down
to
Sheol
with
blood.
10 2:10
And
David
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
was
buried
in
the
city
of
David.
11 2:11
And
the
days
that
David
reigned
over
Israel
were
forty
years:
seven
years
reigned
he
in
Hebron,
and
thirty
and
three
years
reigned
he
in
Jerusalem.
12 2:12
And
Solomon
sat
upon
the
throne
of
David
his
father;
and
his
kingdom
was
established
greatly.
13 2:13
Then
Adonijah
the
son
of
Haggith
came
to
Bath-sheba
the
mother
of
Solomon.
And
she
said,
Comest
thou
peaceably?
And
he
said,
Peaceably.
14 2:14
He
said
moreover,
I
have
somewhat
to
say
unto
thee.
And
she
said,
Say
on.
15 2:15
And
he
said,
Thou
knowest
that
the
kingdom
was
mine,
and
that
all
Israel
set
their
faces
on
me,
that
I
should
reign:
howbeit
the
kingdom
is
turned
about,
and
is
become
my
brother’s;
for
it
was
his
from
Jehovah.
16 2:16
And
now
I
ask
one
petition
of
thee;
deny
me
not.
And
she
said
unto
him,
Say
on.
17 2:17
And
he
said,
Speak,
I
pray
thee,
unto
Solomon
the
king (for
he
will
not
say
thee
nay),
that
he
give
me
Abishag
the
Shunammite
to
wife.
18 2:18
And
Bath-sheba
said,
Well;
I
will
speak
for
thee
unto
the
king.
19 2:19
Bath-sheba
therefore
went
unto
king
Solomon,
to
speak
unto
him
for
Adonijah.
And
the
king
rose
up
to
meet
her,
and
bowed
himself
unto
her,
and
sat
down
on
his
throne,
and
caused
a
throne
to
be
set
for
the
king’s
mother;
and
she
sat
on
his
right
hand.
20 2:20
Then
she
said,
I
ask
one
small
petition
of
thee;
deny
me
not.
And
the
king
said
unto
her,
Ask
on,
my
mother;
for
I
will
not
deny
thee.
21 2:21
And
she
said,
Let
Abishag
the
Shunammite
be
given
to
Adonijah
thy
brother
to
wife.
22 2:22
And
king
Solomon
answered
and
said
unto
his
mother,
And
why
dost
thou
ask
Abishag
the
Shunammite
for
Adonijah?
ask
for
him
the
kingdom
also;
for
he
is
mine
elder
brother;
even
for
him,
and
for
Abiathar
the
priest,
and
for
Joab
the
son
of
Zeruiah.
23 2:23
Then
king
Solomon
sware
by
Jehovah,
saying,
God
do
so
to
me,
and
more
also,
if
Adonijah
hath
not
spoken
this
word
against
his
own
life.
24 2:24
Now
therefore
as
Jehovah
liveth,
who
hath
established
me,
and
set
me
on
the
throne
of
David
my
father,
and
who
hath
made
me
a
house,
as
he
promised,
surely
Adonijah
shall
be
put
to
death
this
day.
25 2:25
And
king
Solomon
sent
by
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada;
and
he
fell
upon
him,
so
that
he
died.
26 2:26
And
unto
Abiathar
the
priest
said
the
king,
Get
thee
to
Anathoth,
unto
thine
own
fields;
for
thou
art
worthy
of
death:
but
I
will
not
at
this
time
put
thee
to
death,
because
thou
barest
the
ark
of
the
Lord
Jehovah
before
David
my
father,
and
because
thou wast
afflicted
in
all
wherein
my
father
was
afflicted.
27 2:27
So
Solomon
thrust
out
Abiathar
from
being
priest
unto
Jehovah,
that
he
might
fulfil
the
word
of
Jehovah,
which
he
spake
concerning
the
house
of
Eli
in
Shiloh.
28 2:28
And
the
tidings
came
to
Joab;
for
Joab
had
turned
after
Adonijah,
though
he
turned
not
after
Absalom.
And
Joab
fled
unto
the
Tent
of
Jehovah,
and
caught
hold
on
the
horns
of
the
altar.
29 2:29
And
it
was
told
king
Solomon,
Joab
is
fled
unto
the
Tent
of
Jehovah,
and,
behold,
he
is
by
the
altar.
Then
Solomon
sent
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada,
saying,
Go,
fall
upon
him.
30 2:30
And
Benaiah
came
to
the
Tent
of
Jehovah,
and
said
unto
him,
Thus
saith
the
king,
Come
forth.
And
he
said,
Nay;
but
I
will
die
here.
And
Benaiah
brought
the
king
word
again,
saying,
Thus
said
Joab,
and
thus
he
answered
me.
31 2:31
And
the
king
said
unto
him,
Do
as
he
hath
said,
and
fall
upon
him,
and
bury
him;
that
thou
mayest
take
away
the
blood,
which
Joab
shed
without
cause,
from
me
and
from
my
father’s
house.
32 2:32
And
Jehovah
will
return
his
blood
upon
his
own
head,
because
he
fell
upon
two
men
more
righteous
and
better
than
he,
and
slew
them
with
the
sword,
and
my
father
David
knew
it
not,
to
wit,
Abner
the
son
of
Ner,
captain
of
the
host
of
Israel,
and
Amasa
the
son
of
Jether,
captain
of
the
host
of
Judah.
33 2:33
So
shall
their
blood
return
upon
the
head
of
Joab,
and
upon
the
head
of
his
seed
for
ever:
but
unto
David,
and
unto
his
seed,
and
unto
his
house,
and
unto
his
throne,
shall
there
be
peace
for
ever
from
Jehovah.
34 2:34
Then
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada
went
up,
and
fell
upon
him,
and
slew
him;
and
he
was
buried
in
his
own
house
in
the
wilderness.
35 2:35
And
the
king
put
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada
in
his
room
over
the
host;
and
Zadok
the
priest
did
the
king
put
in
the
room
of
Abiathar.
36 2:36
And
the
king
sent
and
called
for
Shimei,
and
said
unto
him,
Build
thee
a
house
in
Jerusalem,
and
dwell
there,
and
go
not
forth
thence
any
whither.
37 2:37
For
on
the
day
thou
goest
out,
and
passest
over
the
brook
Kidron,
know
thou
for
certain
that
thou shalt
surely
die:
thy
blood
shall
be
upon
thine
own
head.
38 2:38
And
Shimei
said
unto
the
king,
The
saying
is
good:
as
my
lord
the
king
hath
said,
so
will
thy
servant
do.
And
Shimei
dwelt
in
Jerusalem
many
days.
39 2:39
And
it
came
to
pass
at
the
end
of
three
years,
that
two
of
the
servants
of
Shimei
ran
away
unto
Achish,
son
of
Maacah,
king
of
Gath.
And
they
told
Shimei,
saying,
Behold,
thy
servants
are
in
Gath.
40 2:40
And
Shimei
arose,
and
saddled
his
ass,
and
went
to
Gath
to
Achish,
to
seek
his
servants;
and
Shimei
went,
and
brought
his
servants
from
Gath.
41 2:41
And
it
was
told
Solomon
that
Shimei
had
gone
from
Jerusalem
to
Gath,
and
was
come
again.
42 2:42
And
the
king
sent
and
called
for
Shimei,
and
said
unto
him,
Did
I
not
adjure
thee
by
Jehovah,
and
protest
unto
thee,
saying,
Know
for
certain,
that
on
the
day
thou
goest
out,
and
walkest
abroad
any
whither,
thou shalt
surely
die?
and
thou
saidst
unto
me,
The
saying
that
I
have
heard
is
good.
43 2:43
Why
then
hast
thou
not
kept
the
oath
of
Jehovah,
and
the
commandment
that
I
have
charged
thee
with?
44 2:44
The
king
said
moreover
to
Shimei,
Thou
knowest
all
the
wickedness
which
thy
heart
is privy
to,
that
thou
didst
to
David
my
father:
therefore
Jehovah
shall
return
thy
wickedness
upon
thine
own
head.
45 2:45
But
king
Solomon
shall
be
blessed,
and
the
throne
of
David
shall
be
established
before
Jehovah
for
ever.
46 2:46
So
the
king
commanded
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada;
and
he
went
out,
and
fell
upon
him,
so
that
he
died.
And
the
kingdom
was
established
in
the
hand
of
Solomon.
31 3:1
And
Solomon
made
affinity
with
Pharaoh
king
of
Egypt,
and
took
Pharaoh’s
daughter,
and
brought
her
into
the
city
of
David,
until
he
had
made
an
end
of
building
his
own
house,
and
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
the
wall
of
Jerusalem
round
about.
2 3:2
Only
the
people
sacrificed
in
the
high
places,
because
there
was
no
house
built
for
the
name
of
Jehovah
until
those
days.
3 3:3
And
Solomon
loved
Jehovah,
walking
in
the
statutes
of
David
his
father:
only
he
sacrificed
and
burnt
incense
in
the
high
places.
4 3:4
And
the
king
went
to
Gibeon
to
sacrifice
there;
for
that
was
the
great
high
place:
a
thousand burnt-offerings
did
Solomon
offer
upon
that
altar.
5 3:5
In
Gibeon
Jehovah
appeared
to
Solomon
in
a
dream
by
night;
and
God
said,
Ask
what
I
shall
give
thee.
6 3:6
And
Solomon
said,
Thou
hast
showed
unto
thy
servant
David
my
father
great
lovingkindness,
according
as
he
walked
before
thee
in
truth,
and
in
righteousness,
and
in
uprightness
of
heart
with
thee;
and
thou
hast
kept
for
him
this
great
lovingkindness,
that
thou
hast
given
him
a
son
to
sit
on
his
throne,
as
it
is
this
day.
7 3:7
And
now,
O
Jehovah
my
God,
thou
hast
made
thy
servant
king
instead
of
David
my
father:
and
I
am
but
a
little
child;
I
know
not
how
to
go
out
or
come
in.
8 3:8
And
thy
servant
is
in
the
midst
of
thy
people
which
thou
hast
chosen,
a
great
people,
that
cannot
be
numbered
nor
counted
for
multitude.
9 3:9
Give
thy
servant
therefore
an
understanding
heart
to
judge
thy
people,
that
I
may
discern
between
good
and
evil;
for
who
is
able
to
judge
this
thy
great
people?
10 3:10
And
the
speech
pleased
the
Lord,
that
Solomon
had
asked
this
thing.
11 3:11
And
God
said
unto
him,
Because
thou
hast
asked
this
thing,
and
hast
not
asked
for
thyself
long
life,
neither
hast
asked
riches
for
thyself,
nor
hast
asked
the
life
of
thine
enemies,
but
hast
asked
for
thyself
understanding
to
discern
justice;
12 3:12
behold,
I
have
done
according
to
thy
word:
lo,
I
have
given
thee
a
wise
and
an
understanding
heart;
so
that
there
hath
been
none
like
thee
before
thee,
neither
after
thee
shall
any
arise
like
unto
thee.
13 3:13
And
I
have
also
given
thee
that
which
thou
hast
not
asked,
both
riches
and
honor,
so
that
there
shall
not
be
any
among
the
kings
like
unto
thee,
all
thy
days.
14 3:14
And
if
thou
wilt
walk
in
my
ways,
to
keep
my
statutes
and
my
commandments,
as
thy
father
David
did
walk,
then
I
will
lengthen
thy
days.
15 3:15
And
Solomon
awoke;
and,
behold,
it
was
a
dream:
and
he
came
to
Jerusalem,
and
stood
before
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah,
and
offered
up burnt-offerings,
and
offered peace-offerings,
and
made
a
feast
to
all
his
servants.
16 3:16
Then
there
came
two
women
that
were
harlots,
unto
the
king,
and
stood
before
him.
17 3:17
And
the
one
woman
said,
Oh,
my
lord,
I
and
this
woman
dwell
in
one
house;
and
I
was
delivered
of
a
child
with
her
in
the
house.
18 3:18
And
it
came
to
pass
the
third
day
after
I
was
delivered,
that
this
woman
was
delivered
also;
and
we
were
together;
there
was
no
stranger
with
us
in
the
house,
save
we
two
in
the
house.
19 3:19
And
this
woman’s
child
died
in
the
night,
because
she
lay
upon
it.
20 3:20
And
she
arose
at
midnight,
and
took
my
son
from
beside
me,
while
thy
handmaid
slept,
and
laid
it
in
her
bosom,
and
laid
her
dead
child
in
my
bosom.
21 3:21
And
when
I
rose
in
the
morning
to
give
my
child
suck,
behold,
it
was
dead;
but
when
I
had
looked
at
it
in
the
morning,
behold,
it
was
not
my
son,
whom
I
did
bear.
22 3:22
And
the
other
woman
said,
Nay;
but
the
living
is
my
son,
and
the
dead
is
thy
son.
And
this
said,
No;
but
the
dead
is
thy
son,
and
the
living
is
my
son.
Thus
they
spake
before
the
king.
23 3:23
Then
said
the
king,
The
one
saith,
This
is
my
son
that
liveth,
and
thy
son
is
the
dead:
and
the
other
saith,
Nay;
but
thy
son
is
the
dead,
and
my
son
is
the
living.
24 3:24
And
the
king
said,
Fetch
me
a
sword.
And
they
brought
a
sword
before
the
king.
25 3:25
And
the
king
said,
Divide
the
living
child
in
two,
and
give
half
to
the
one,
and
half
to
the
other.
26 3:26
Then
spake
the
woman
whose
the
living
child
was
unto
the
king,
for
her
heart
yearned
over
her
son,
and
she
said,
Oh,
my
lord,
give
her
the
living
child,
and
in
no
wise
slay
it.
But
the
other
said,
It
shall
be
neither
mine
nor
thine;
divide
it.
27 3:27
Then
the
king
answered
and
said,
Give
her
the
living
child,
and
in
no
wise
slay
it:
she
is
the
mother
thereof.
28 3:28
And
all
Israel
heard
of
the
judgment
which
the
king
had
judged;
and
they
feared
the
king:
for
they
saw
that
the
wisdom
of
God
was
in
him,
to
do
justice.
41 4:1
And
king
Solomon
was
king
over
all
Israel.
2 4:2
And
these
were
the
princes
whom
he
had:
Azariah
the
son
of
Zadok,
the
priest;
3 4:3
Elihoreph
and
Ahijah,
the
sons
of
Shisha,
scribes;
Jehoshaphat
the
son
of
Ahilud,
the
recorder;
4 4:4
and
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada
was
over
the
host;
and
Zadok
and
Abiathar
were
priests;
5 4:5
and
Azariah
the
son
of
Nathan
was
over
the
officers;
and
Zabud
the
son
of
Nathan
was
chief
minister,
and
the
king’s
friend;
6 4:6
and
Ahishar
was
over
the
household;
and
Adoniram
the
son
of
Abda
was
over
the
men
subject
to taskwork.
7 4:7
And
Solomon
had
twelve
officers
over
all
Israel,
who
provided
victuals
for
the
king
and
his
household:
each
man
had
to
make
provision
for
a
month
in
the
year.
8 4:8
And
these
are
their
names:
Ben-hur,
in
the hill-country
of
Ephraim;
9 4:9
Ben-deker,
in
Makaz,
and
in
Shaalbim,
and
Beth-shemesh,
and
Elon-beth-hanan;
10 4:10
Ben-hesed,
in
Arubboth (to
him
pertained
Socoh,
and
all
the
land
of
Hepher);
11 4:11
Ben-abinadab,
in
all
the
height
of
Dor (he
had
Taphath
the
daughter
of
Solomon
to
wife);
12 4:12
Baana
the
son
of
Ahilud,
in
Taanach
and
Megiddo,
and
all
Beth-shean
which
is
beside
Zarethan,
beneath
Jezreel,
from
Beth-shean
to
Abel-meholah,
as
far
as
beyond
Jokmeam;
13 4:13
Ben-geber,
in
Ramoth-gilead (to
him
pertained
the
towns
of
Jair
the
son
of
Manasseh,
which
are
in
Gilead;
even
to
him
pertained
the
region
of
Argob,
which
is
in
Bashan,
threescore
great
cities
with
walls
and
brazen
bars);
14 4:14
Ahinadab
the
son
of
Iddo,
in
Mahanaim;
15 4:15
Ahimaaz,
in
Naphtali (he
also
took
Basemath
the
daughter
of
Solomon
to
wife);
16 4:16
Baana
the
son
of
Hushai,
in
Asher
and

17 4:17
Jehoshaphat
the

18 4:18
Shimei
the
son
of
Ela,
in
Benjamin;
19 4:19
Geber
the
son
of
Uri,
in
the
land
of
Gilead,
the
country
of
Sihon
king
of
the
Amorites
and
of
Og
king
of
Bashan;
and
he
was
the
only
officer
that
was
in
the
land.
20 4:20
Judah
and
Israel
were
many
as
the
sand
which
is
by
the
sea
in
multitude,
eating
and
drinking
and
making
merry.
21 4:21
And
Solomon
ruled
over
all
the
kingdoms
from
the
River
unto
the
land
of
the
Philistines,
and
unto
the
border
of
Egypt:
they
brought
tribute,
and
served
Solomon
all
the
days
of
his
life.
22 4:22
And
Solomon’s
provision
for
one
day
was
thirty
measures
of
fine
flour,
and
threescore
measures
of
meal,
23 4:23
ten
fat
oxen,
and
twenty
oxen
out
of
the
pastures,
and
a
hundred
sheep,
besides
harts,
and
gazelles,
and
roebucks,
and
fatted
fowl.
24 4:24
For
he
had
dominion
over
all
the
region
on
this
side
the
River,
from
Tiphsah
even
to
Gaza,
over
all
the
kings
on
this
side
the
River:
and
he
had
peace
on
all
sides
round
about
him.
25 4:25
And
Judah
and
Israel
dwelt
safely,
every
man
under
his
vine
and
under
his fig-tree,
from
Dan
even
to
Beer-sheba,
all
the
days
of
Solomon.
26 4:26
And
Solomon
had
forty
thousand
stalls
of
horses
for
his
chariots,
and
twelve
thousand
horsemen.
27 4:27
And
those
officers
provided
victuals
for
king
Solomon,
and
for
all
that
came
unto
king
Solomon’s
table,
every
man
in
his
month;
they
let
nothing
be
lacking.
28 4:28
Barley
also
and
straw
for
the
horses
and
swift
steeds
brought
they
unto
the
place
where
the
officers
were,
every
man
according
to
his
charge.
29 4:29
And
God
gave
Solomon
wisdom
and
understanding
exceeding
much,
and
largeness
of
heart,
even
as
the
sand
that
is
on
the sea-shore.
30 4:30
And
Solomon’s
wisdom
excelled
the
wisdom
of
all
the
children
of
the
east,
and
all
the
wisdom
of
Egypt.
31 4:31
For
he
was
wiser
than
all
men;
than
Ethan
the
Ezrahite,
and
Heman,
and
Calcol,
and
Darda,
the
sons
of
Mahol:
and
his
fame
was
in
all
the
nations
round
about.
32 4:32
And
he
spake
three
thousand
proverbs;
and
his
songs
were
a
thousand
and
five.
33 4:33
And
he
spake
of
trees,
from
the
cedar
that
is
in
Lebanon
even
unto
the
hyssop
that
springeth
out
of
the
wall;
he
spake
also
of
beasts,
and
of
birds,
and
of
creeping
things,
and
of
fishes.
34 4:34
And
there
came
of
all
peoples
to
hear
the
wisdom
of
Solomon,
from
all
kings
of
the
earth,
who
had
heard
of
his
wisdom.
51 5:1
And
Hiram
king
of
Tyre
sent
his
servants
unto
Solomon;
for
he
had
heard
that
they
had
anointed
him
king
in
the
room
of
his
father:
for
Hiram
was
ever
a
lover
of
David.
2 5:2
And
Solomon
sent
to
Hiram,
saying,
3 5:3
Thou
knowest
how
that
David
my
father
could
not
build
a
house
for
the
name
of
Jehovah
his
God
for
the
wars
which
were
about
him
on
every
side,
until
Jehovah
put
them
under
the
soles
of
his
feet.
4 5:4
But
now
Jehovah
my
God
hath
given
me
rest
on
every
side;
there
is
neither
adversary,
nor
evil occurrence.
5 5:5
And,
behold,
I
purpose
to
build
a
house
for
the
name
of
Jehovah
my
God,
as
Jehovah
spake
unto
David
my
father,
saying,
Thy
son,
whom
I
will
set
upon
thy
throne
in
thy
room,
he
shall
build
the
house
for
my
name.
6 5:6
Now
therefore
command
thou
that
they
cut
me cedar-trees
out
of
Lebanon;
and
my
servants
shall
be
with
thy
servants;
and
I
will
give
thee
hire
for
thy
servants
according
to
all
that
thou shalt
say:
for
thou
knowest
that
there
is
not
among
us
any
that
knoweth
how
to
cut
timber
like
unto
the
Sidonians.
7 5:7
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Hiram
heard
the
words
of
Solomon,
that
he
rejoiced
greatly,
and
said,
Blessed
be
Jehovah
this
day,
who
hath
given
unto
David
a
wise
son
over
this
great
people.
8 5:8
And
Hiram
sent
to
Solomon,
saying,
I
have
heard
the
message
which
thou
hast
sent
unto
me:
I
will
do
all
thy
desire
concerning
timber
of
cedar,
and
concerning
timber
of
fir.
9 5:9
My
servants
shall
bring
them
down
from
Lebanon
unto
the
sea;
and
I
will
make
them
into
rafts
to
go
by
sea
unto
the
place
that
thou shalt
appoint
me,
and
will
cause
them
to
be
broken
up
there,
and
thou shalt
receive
them;
and
thou shalt
accomplish
my
desire,
in
giving
food
for
my
household.
10 5:10
So
Hiram
gave
Solomon
timber
of
cedar
and
timber
of
fir
according
to
all
his
desire.
11 5:11
And
Solomon
gave
Hiram
twenty
thousand
measures
of
wheat
for
food
to
his
household,
and
twenty
measures
of
pure
oil:
thus
gave
Solomon
to
Hiram
year
by
year.
12 5:12
And
Jehovah
gave
Solomon
wisdom,
as
he
promised
him;
and
there
was
peace
between
Hiram
and
Solomon;
and
they
two
made
a
league
together.
13 5:13
And
king
Solomon
raised
a
levy
out
of
all
Israel;
and
the
levy
was
thirty
thousand
men.
14 5:14
And
he
sent
them
to
Lebanon,
ten
thousand
a
month
by
courses;
a
month
they
were
in
Lebanon,
and
two
months
at
home:
and
Adoniram
was
over
the
men
subject
to taskwork.
15 5:15
And
Solomon
had
threescore
and
ten
thousand
that
bare
burdens,
and
fourscore
thousand
that
were
hewers
in
the
mountains;
16 5:16
besides
Solomon’s
chief
officers
that
were
over
the
work,
three
thousand
and
three
hundred,
who
bare
rule
over
the
people
that
wrought
in
the
work.
17 5:17
And
the
king
commanded,
and
they
hewed
out
great
stones,
costly
stones,
to
lay
the
foundation
of
the
house
with
wrought
stone.
18 5:18
And
Solomon’s
builders
and
Hiram’s
builders
and
the
Gebalites
did
fashion
them,
and
prepared
the
timber
and
the
stones
to
build
the
house.
61 6:1
And
it
came
to
pass
in
the
four
hundred
and
eightieth
year
after
the
children
of
Israel
were
come
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt,
in
the
fourth
year
of
Solomon’s
reign
over
Israel,
in
the
month
Ziv,
which
is
the
second
month,
that
he
began
to
build
the
house
of
Jehovah.
2 6:2
And
the
house
which
king
Solomon
built
for
Jehovah,
the
length
thereof
was
threescore
cubits,
and
the
breadth
thereof
twenty
cubits,
and
the
height
thereof
thirty
cubits.
3 6:3
And
the
porch
before
the
temple
of
the
house,
twenty
cubits
was
the
length
thereof,
according
to
the
breadth
of
the
house;
and
ten
cubits
was
the
breadth
thereof
before
the
house.
4 6:4
And
for
the
house
he
made
windows
of
fixed lattice-work.
5 6:5
And
against
the
wall
of
the
house
he
built
stories
round
about,
against
the
walls
of
the
house
round
about,
both
of
the
temple
and
of
the
oracle;
and
he
made side-chambers
round
about.
6 6:6
The
nethermost
story
was
five
cubits
broad,
and
the
middle
was
six
cubits
broad,
and
the
third
was
seven
cubits
broad;
for
on
the
outside
he
made
offsets
in
the
wall
of
the
house
round
about,
that
the
beams
should
not
have
hold
in
the
walls
of
the
house.
7 6:7
And
the
house,
when
it
was
in
building,
was
built
of
stone
made
ready
at
the
quarry;
and
there
was
neither
hammer
nor
axe
nor
any
tool
of
iron
heard
in
the
house,
while
it
was
in
building.
8 6:8
The
door
for
the
middle side-chambers
was
in
the
right
side
of
the
house:
and
they
went
up
by
winding
stairs
into
the
middle
story,
and
out
of
the
middle
into
the
third.
9 6:9
So
he
built
the
house,
and
finished
it;
and
he
covered
the
house
with
beams
and
planks
of
cedar.
10 6:10
And
he
built
the
stories
against
all
the
house,
each
five
cubits
high:
and
they
rested
on
the
house
with
timber
of
cedar.
11 6:11
And
the
word
of
Jehovah
came
to
Solomon,
saying,
12 6:12
Concerning
this
house
which
thou
art
building,
if
thou
wilt
walk
in
my
statutes,
and
execute
mine
ordinances,
and
keep
all
my
commandments
to
walk
in
them;
then
will
I
establish
my
word
with
thee,
which
I
spake
unto
David
thy
father.
13 6:13
And
I
will
dwell
among
the
children
of
Israel,
and
will
not
forsake
my
people
Israel.
14 6:14
So
Solomon
built
the
house,
and
finished
it.
15 6:15
And
he
built
the
walls
of
the
house
within
with
boards
of
cedar:
from
the
floor
of
the
house
unto
the
walls
of
the
ceiling,
he
covered
them
on
the
inside
with
wood;
and
he
covered
the
floor
of
the
house
with
boards
of
fir.
16 6:16
And
he
built
twenty
cubits
on
the
hinder
part
of
the
house
with
boards
of
cedar
from
the
floor
unto
the
walls
of
the
ceiling:
he
built
them
for
it
within,
for
an
oracle,
even
for
the
most
holy
place.
17 6:17
And
the
house,
that
is,
the
temple
before
the
oracle,
was
forty
cubits
long.
18 6:18
And
there
was
cedar
on
the
house
within,
carved
with
knops
and
open
flowers:
all
was
cedar;
there
was
no
stone
seen.
19 6:19
And
he
prepared
an
oracle
in
the
midst
of
the
house
within,
to
set
there
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah.
20 6:20
And
within
the
oracle
was
a
space
of
twenty
cubits
in
length,
and
twenty
cubits
in
breadth,
and
twenty
cubits
in
the
height
thereof;
and
he
overlaid
it
with
pure
gold:
and
he
covered
the
altar
with
cedar.
21 6:21
So
Solomon
overlaid
the
house
within
with
pure
gold:
and
he
drew
chains
of
gold
across
before
the
oracle;
and
he
overlaid
it
with
gold.
22 6:22
And
the
whole
house
he
overlaid
with
gold,
until
all
the
house
was
finished:
also
the
whole
altar
that
belonged
to
the
oracle
he
overlaid
with
gold.
23 6:23
And
in
the
oracle
he
made
two
cherubim
of olive-wood,
each
ten
cubits
high.
24 6:24
And
five
cubits
was
the
one
wing
of
the
cherub,
and
five
cubits
the
other
wing
of
the
cherub:
from
the
uttermost
part
of
the
one
wing
unto
the
uttermost
part
of
the
other
were
ten
cubits.
25 6:25
And
the
other
cherub
was
ten
cubits:
both
the
cherubim
were
of
one
measure
and
one
form.
26 6:26
The
height
of
the
one
cherub
was
ten
cubits,
and
so
was
it
of
the
other
cherub.
27 6:27
And
he
set
the
cherubim
within
the
inner
house;
and
the
wings
of
the
cherubim
were
stretched
forth,
so
that
the
wing
of
the
one
touched
the
one
wall,
and
the
wing
of
the
other
cherub
touched
the
other
wall;
and
their
wings
touched
one
another
in
the
midst
of
the
house.
28 6:28
And
he
overlaid
the
cherubim
with
gold.
29 6:29
And
he
carved
all
the
walls
of
the
house
round
about
with
carved
figures
of
cherubim
and palm-trees
and
open
flowers,
within
and
without.
30 6:30
And
the
floor
of
the
house
he
overlaid
with
gold,
within
and
without.
31 6:31
And
for
the
entrance
of
the
oracle
he
made
doors
of olive-wood:
the
lintel
and door-posts
were
a
fifth
part
of
the
wall.
32 6:32
So
he
made
two
doors
of olive-wood;
and
he
carved
upon
them
carvings
of
cherubim
and palm-trees
and
open
flowers,
and
overlaid
them
with
gold;
and
he
spread
the
gold
upon
the
cherubim,
and
upon
the palm-trees.
33 6:33
So
also
made
he
for
the
entrance
of
the
temple door-posts
of olive-wood,
out
of
a
fourth
part
of
the
wall;
34 6:34
and
two
doors
of fir-wood:
the
two
leaves
of
the
one
door
were
folding,
and
the
two
leaves
of
the
other
door
were
folding.
35 6:35
And
he
carved
thereon
cherubim
and palm-trees
and
open
flowers;
and
he
overlaid
them
with
gold
fitted
upon
the
graven
work.
36 6:36
And
he
built
the
inner
court
with
three
courses
of
hewn
stone,
and
a
course
of
cedar
beams.
37 6:37
In
the
fourth
year
was
the
foundation
of
the
house
of
Jehovah
laid,
in
the
month
Ziv.
38 6:38
And
in
the
eleventh
year,
in
the
month
Bul,
which
is
the
eighth
month,
was
the
house
finished
throughout
all
the
parts
thereof,
and
according
to
all
the
fashion
of
it.
So
was
he
seven
years
in
building
it.
71 7:1
And
Solomon
was
building
his
own
house
thirteen
years,
and
he
finished
all
his
house.
2 7:2
For
he
built
the
house
of
the
forest
of
Lebanon;
the
length
thereof
was
a
hundred
cubits,
and
the
breadth
thereof
fifty
cubits,
and
the
height
thereof
thirty
cubits,
upon
four
rows
of
cedar
pillars,
with
cedar
beams
upon
the
pillars.
3 7:3
And
it
was
covered
with
cedar
above
over
the
forty
and
five
beams,
that
were
upon
the
pillars;
fifteen
in
a
row.
4 7:4
And
there
were
beams
in
three
rows,
and
window
was
over
against
window
in
three
ranks.
5 7:5
And
all
the
doors
and
posts
were
made
square
with
beams:
and
window
was
over
against
window
in
three
ranks.
6 7:6
And
he
made
the
porch
of
pillars;
the
length
thereof
was
fifty
cubits,
and
the
breadth
thereof
thirty
cubits;
and
a
porch
before
them;
and
pillars
and
a
threshold
before
them.
7 7:7
And
he
made
the
porch
of
the
throne
where
he
was
to
judge,
even
the
porch
of
judgment:
and
it
was
covered
with
cedar
from
floor
to
floor.
8 7:8
And
his
house
where
he
was
to
dwell,
the
other
court
within
the
porch,
was
of
the
like
work.
He
made
also
a
house
for
Pharaoh’s
daughter (whom
Solomon
had
taken
to
wife),
like
unto
this
porch.
9 7:9
All
these
were
of
costly
stones,
even
of
hewn
stone,
according
to
measure,
sawed
with
saws,
within
and
without,
even
from
the
foundation
unto
the
coping,
and
so
on
the
outside
unto
the
great
court.
10 7:10
And
the
foundation
was
of
costly
stones,
even
great
stones,
stones
of
ten
cubits,
and
stones
of
eight
cubits.
11 7:11
And
above
were
costly
stones,
even
hewn
stone,
according
to
measure,
and cedar-wood.
12 7:12
And
the
great
court
round
about
had
three
courses
of
hewn
stone,
and
a
course
of
cedar
beams;
like
as
the
inner
court
of
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
the
porch
of
the
house.
13 7:13
And
king
Solomon
sent
and
fetched
Hiram
out
of
Tyre.
14 7:14
He
was
the
son
of
a
widow
of
the
tribe
of
Naphtali,
and
his
father
was
a
man
of
Tyre,
a
worker
in
brass;
and
he
was
filled
with
wisdom
and
understanding
and
skill,
to
work
all
works
in
brass.
And
he
came
to
king
Solomon,
and
wrought
all
his
work.
15 7:15
For
he
fashioned
the
two
pillars
of
brass,
eighteen
cubits
high
apiece:
and
a
line
of
twelve
cubits
compassed
either
of
them
about.
16 7:16
And
he
made
two
capitals
of
molten
brass,
to
set
upon
the
tops
of
the
pillars:
the
height
of
the
one
capital
was
five
cubits,
and
the
height
of
the
other
capital
was
five
cubits.
17 7:17
There
were
nets
of checker-work,
and
wreaths
of chain-work,
for
the
capitals
which
were
upon
the
top
of
the
pillars;
seven
for
the
one
capital,
and
seven
for
the
other
capital.
18 7:18
So
he
made
the
pillars;
and
there
were
two
rows
round
about
upon
the
one
network,
to
cover
the
capitals
that
were
upon
the
top
of
the
pillars:
and
so
did
he
for
the
other
capital.
19 7:19
And
the
capitals
that
were
upon
the
top
of
the
pillars
in
the
porch
were
of lily-work,
four
cubits.
20 7:20
And
there
were
capitals
above
also
upon
the
two
pillars,
close
by
the
belly
which
was
beside
the
network:
and
the
pomegranates
were
two
hundred,
in
rows
round
about
upon
the
other
capital.
21 7:21
And
he
set
up
the
pillars
at
the
porch
of
the
temple:
and
he
set
up
the
right
pillar,
and
called
the
name
thereof
Jachin;
and
he
set
up
the
left
pillar,
and
called
the
name
thereof
Boaz.
22 7:22
And
upon
the
top
of
the
pillars
was lily-work:
so
was
the
work
of
the
pillars
finished.
23 7:23
And
he
made
the
molten
sea
of
ten
cubits
from
brim
to
brim,
round
in
compass,
and
the
height
thereof
was
five
cubits;
and
a
line
of
thirty
cubits
compassed
it
round
about.
24 7:24
And
under
the
brim
of
it
round
about
there
were
knops
which
did
compass
it,
for
ten
cubits,
compassing
the
sea
round
about:
the
knops
were
in
two
rows,
cast
when
it
was
cast.
25 7:25
It
stood
upon
twelve
oxen,
three
looking
toward
the
north,
and
three
looking
toward
the
west,
and
three
looking
toward
the
south,
and
three
looking
toward
the
east;
and
the
sea
was
set
upon
them
above,
and
all
their
hinder
parts
were
inward.
26 7:26
And
it
was
a
handbreadth
thick:
and
the
brim
thereof
was
wrought
like
the
brim
of
a
cup,
like
the
flower
of
a
lily:
it
held
two
thousand
baths.
27 7:27
And
he
made
the
ten
bases
of
brass;
four
cubits
was
the
length
of
one
base,
and
four
cubits
the
breadth
thereof,
and
three
cubits
the
height
of
it.
28 7:28
And
the
work
of
the
bases
was
on
this
manner:
they
had panels;
and
there
were panels
between
the
ledges;
29 7:29
and
on
the panels
that
were
between
the
ledges
were
lions,
oxen,
and
cherubim;
and
upon
the
ledges
there
was
a
pedestal
above;
and
beneath
the
lions
and
oxen
were
wreaths
of
hanging
work.
30 7:30
And
every
base
had
four
brazen
wheels,
and
axles
of
brass;
and
the
four
feet
thereof
had
undersetters:
beneath
the
laver
were
the
undersetters
molten,
with
wreaths
at
the
side
of
each.
31 7:31
And
the
mouth
of
it
within
the
capital
and
above
was
a
cubit:
and
the
mouth
thereof
was
round
after
the
work
of
a
pedestal,
a
cubit
and
a
half;
and
also
upon
the
mouth
of
it
were
gravings,
and
their panels
were
foursquare,
not
round.
32 7:32
And
the
four
wheels
were
underneath
the panels;
and
the
axletrees
of
the
wheels
were
in
the
base:
and
the
height
of
a
wheel
was
a
cubit
and
half
a
cubit.
33 7:33
And
the
work
of
the
wheels
was
like
the
work
of
a
chariot
wheel:
their
axletrees,
and
their
felloes,
and
their
spokes,
and
their
naves,
were
all
molten.
34 7:34
And
there
were
four
undersetters
at
the
four
corners
of
each
base:
the
undersetters
thereof
were
of
the
base
itself.
35 7:35
And
in
the
top
of
the
base
was
there
a
round
compass
half
a
cubit
high;
and
on
the
top
of
the
base
the
stays
thereof
and
the panels
thereof
were
of
the
same.
36 7:36
And
on
the
plates
of
the
stays
thereof,
and
on
the panels
thereof,
he
graved
cherubim,
lions,
and palm-trees,
according
to
the
space
of
each,
with
wreaths
round
about.
37 7:37
After
this
manner
he
made
the
ten
bases:
all
of
them
had
one
casting,
one
measure,
and
one
form.
38 7:38
And
he
made
ten
lavers
of
brass:
one
laver
contained
forty
baths;
and
every
laver
was
four
cubits;
and
upon
every
one
of
the
ten
bases
one
laver.
39 7:39
And
he
set
the
bases,
five
on
the
right
side
of
the
house,
and
five
on
the
left
side
of
the
house:
and
he
set
the
sea
on
the
right
side
of
the
house
eastward,
toward
the
south.
40 7:40
And
Hiram
made
the
lavers,
and
the
shovels,
and
the
basins.
So
Hiram
made
an
end
of
doing
all
the
work
that
he
wrought
for
king
Solomon
in
the
house
of
Jehovah:
41 7:41
the
two
pillars,
and
the
two
bowls
of
the
capitals
that
were
on
the
top
of
the
pillars;
and
the
two
networks
to
cover
the
two
bowls
of
the
capitals
that
were
on
the
top
of
the
pillars;
42 7:42
and
the
four
hundred
pomegranates
for
the
two
networks;
two
rows
of
pomegranates
for
each
network,
to
cover
the
two
bowls
of
the
capitals
that
were
upon
the
pillars;
43 7:43
and
the
ten
bases,
and
the
ten
lavers
on
the
bases;
44 7:44
and
the
one
sea,
and
the
twelve
oxen
under
the
sea;
45 7:45
and
the
pots,
and
the
shovels,
and
the
basins:
even
all
these
vessels,
which
Hiram
made
for
king
Solomon,
in
the
house
of
Jehovah,
were
of
burnished
brass.
46 7:46
In
the
plain
of
the
Jordan
did
the
king
cast
them,
in
the
clay
ground
between
Succoth
and
Zarethan.
47 7:47
And
Solomon
left
all
the
vessels
unweighed,
because
they
were
exceeding
many:
the
weight
of
the
brass
could
not
be
found
out.
48 7:48
And
Solomon
made
all
the
vessels
that
were
in
the
house
of
Jehovah:
the
golden
altar,
and
the
table whereupon
the
showbread
was,
of
gold;
49 7:49
and
the
candlesticks,
five
on
the
right
side,
and
five
on
the
left,
before
the
oracle,
of
pure
gold;
and
the
flowers,
and
the
lamps,
and
the
tongs,
of
gold;
50 7:50
and
the
cups,
and
the
snuffers,
and
the
basins,
and
the
spoons,
and
the
firepans,
of
pure
gold;
and
the
hinges,
both
for
the
doors
of
the
inner
house,
the
most
holy
place,
and
for
the
doors
of
the
house,
to
wit,
of
the
temple,
of
gold.
51 7:51
Thus
all
the
work
that
king
Solomon
wrought
in
the
house
of
Jehovah
was
finished.
And
Solomon
brought
in
the
things
which
David
his
father
had
dedicated,
even
the
silver,
and
the
gold,
and
the
vessels,
and
put
them
in
the
treasuries
of
the
house
of
Jehovah.
81 8:1
Then
Solomon
assembled
the
elders
of
Israel,
and
all
the
heads
of
the
tribes,
the
princes
of
the
fathers’
houses
of
the
children
of
Israel,
unto
king
Solomon
in
Jerusalem,
to
bring
up
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah
out
of
the
city
of
David,
which
is
Zion.
2 8:2
And
all
the
men
of
Israel
assembled
themselves
unto
king
Solomon
at
the
feast,
in
the
month
Ethanim,
which
is
the
seventh
month.
3 8:3
And
all
the
elders
of
Israel
came,
and
the
priests
took
up
the
ark.
4 8:4
And
they
brought
up
the
ark
of
Jehovah,
and
the
tent
of
meeting,
and
all
the
holy
vessels
that
were
in
the
Tent;
even
these
did
the
priests
and
the
Levites
bring
up.
5 8:5
And
king
Solomon
and
all
the
congregation
of
Israel,
that
were
assembled
unto
him,
were
with
him
before
the
ark,
sacrificing
sheep
and
oxen,
that
could
not
be
counted
nor
numbered
for
multitude.
6 8:6
And
the
priests
brought
in
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah
unto
its
place,
into
the
oracle
of
the
house,
to
the
most
holy
place,
even
under
the
wings
of
the
cherubim.
7 8:7
For
the
cherubim
spread
forth
their
wings
over
the
place
of
the
ark,
and
the
cherubim
covered
the
ark
and
the
staves
thereof
above.
8 8:8
And
the
staves
were
so
long
that
the
ends
of
the
staves
were
seen
from
the
holy
place
before
the
oracle;
but
they
were
not
seen
without:
and
there
they
are
unto
this
day.
9 8:9
There
was
nothing
in
the
ark
save
the
two
tables
of
stone
which
Moses
put
there
at
Horeb,
when
Jehovah
made
a
covenant
with
the
children
of
Israel,
when
they
came
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt.
10 8:10
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
the
priests
were
come
out
of
the
holy
place,
that
the
cloud
filled
the
house
of
Jehovah,
11 8:11
so
that
the
priests
could
not
stand
to
minister
by
reason
of
the
cloud;
for
the
glory
of
Jehovah
filled
the
house
of
Jehovah.
12 8:12
Then
spake
Solomon,
Jehovah
hath
said
that
he
would
dwell
in
the
thick
darkness.
13 8:13
I
have
surely
built
thee
a
house
of
habitation,
a
place
for
thee
to
dwell
in
for
ever.
14 8:14
And
the
king
turned
his
face
about,
and
blessed
all
the
assembly
of
Israel:
and
all
the
assembly
of
Israel
stood.
15 8:15
And
he
said,
Blessed
be
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
who
spake
with
his
mouth
unto
David
my
father,
and
hath
with
his
hand
fulfilled
it,
saying,
16 8:16
Since
the
day
that
I
brought
forth
my
people
Israel
out
of
Egypt,
I
chose
no
city
out
of
all
the
tribes
of
Israel
to
build
a
house,
that
my
name
might
be
there;
but
I
chose
David
to
be
over
my
people
Israel.
17 8:17
Now
it
was
in
the
heart
of
David
my
father
to
build
a
house
for
the
name
of
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel.
18 8:18
But
Jehovah
said
unto
David
my
father,
Whereas
it
was
in
thy
heart
to
build
a
house
for
my
name,
thou
didst
well
that
it
was
in
thy
heart:
19 8:19
nevertheless
thou shalt
not
build
the
house;
but
thy
son
that
shall
come
forth
out
of
thy
loins,
he
shall
build
the
house
for
my
name.
20 8:20
And
Jehovah
hath
established
his
word
that
he
spake;
for
I
am
risen
up
in
the
room
of
David
my
father,
and
sit
on
the
throne
of
Israel,
as
Jehovah
promised,
and
have
built
the
house
for
the
name
of
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel.
21 8:21
And
there
have
I
set
a
place
for
the
ark,
wherein
is
the
covenant
of
Jehovah,
which
he
made
with
our
fathers,
when
he
brought
them
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt.
22 8:22
And
Solomon
stood
before
the
altar
of
Jehovah
in
the
presence
of
all
the
assembly
of
Israel,
and
spread
forth
his
hands
toward
heaven;
23 8:23
and
he
said,
O
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
there
is
no
God
like
thee,
in
heaven
above,
or
on
earth
beneath;
who
keepest
covenant
and
lovingkindness
with
thy
servants,
that
walk
before
thee
with
all
their
heart;
24 8:24
who
hast
kept
with
thy
servant
David
my
father
that
which
thou
didst
promise
him:
yea,
thou
spakest
with
thy
mouth,
and
hast
fulfilled
it
with
thy
hand,
as
it
is
this
day.
25 8:25
Now
therefore,
O
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
keep
with
thy
servant
David
my
father
that
which
thou
hast
promised
him,
saying,
There
shall
not
fail
thee
a
man
in
my
sight
to
sit
on
the
throne
of
Israel,
if
only
thy
children
take
heed
to
their
way,
to
walk
before
me
as
thou
hast
walked
before
me.
26 8:26
Now
therefore,
O
God
of
Israel,
let
thy
word,
I
pray
thee,
be
verified,
which
thou
spakest
unto
thy
servant
David
my
father.
27 8:27
But
will
God
in
very
deed
dwell
on
the
earth?
behold,
heaven
and
the
heaven
of
heavens
cannot
contain
thee;
how
much
less
this
house
that
I
have
builded!
28 8:28
Yet
have
thou
respect
unto
the
prayer
of
thy
servant,
and
to
his
supplication,
O
Jehovah
my
God,
to
hearken
unto
the
cry
and
to
the
prayer
which
thy
servant
prayeth
before
thee
this
day;
29 8:29
that
thine
eyes
may
be
open
toward
this
house
night
and
day,
even
toward
the
place
whereof
thou
hast
said,
My
name
shall
be
there;
to
hearken
unto
the
prayer
which
thy
servant
shall
pray
toward
this
place.
30 8:30
And
hearken
thou
to
the
supplication
of
thy
servant,
and
of
thy
people
Israel,
when
they
shall
pray
toward
this
place:
yea,
hear
thou
in
heaven
thy dwelling-place;
and
when
thou
hearest,
forgive.
31 8:31
If
a
man
sin
against
his
neighbor,
and
an
oath
be
laid
upon
him
to
cause
him
to
swear,
and
he
come
and
swear
before
thine
altar
in
this
house;
32 8:32
then
hear
thou
in
heaven,
and
do,
and
judge
thy
servants,
condemning
the
wicked,
to
bring
his
way
upon
his
own
head,
and
justifying
the
righteous,
to
give
him
according
to
his
righteousness.
33 8:33
When
thy
people
Israel
are
smitten
down
before
the
enemy,
because
they
have
sinned
against
thee;
if
they
turn
again
to
thee,
and
confess
thy
name,
and
pray
and
make
supplication
unto
thee
in
this
house:
34 8:34
then
hear
thou
in
heaven,
and
forgive
the
sin
of
thy
people
Israel,
and
bring
them
again
unto
the
land
which
thou
gavest
unto
their
fathers.
35 8:35
When
heaven
is
shut
up,
and
there
is
no
rain,
because
they
have
sinned
against
thee;
if
they
pray
toward
this
place,
and
confess
thy
name,
and
turn
from
their
sin,
when
thou
dost
afflict
them:
36 8:36
then
hear
thou
in
heaven,
and
forgive
the
sin
of
thy
servants,
and
of
thy
people
Israel,
when
thou
teachest
them
the
good
way
wherein
they
should
walk;
and
send
rain
upon
thy
land,
which
thou
hast
given
to
thy
people
for
an
inheritance.
37 8:37
If
there
be
in
the
land
famine,
if
there
be
pestilence,
if
there
be
blasting
or
mildew,
locust
or
caterpillar;
if
their
enemy
besiege
them
in
the
land
of
their
cities;
whatsoever
plague,
whatsoever
sickness
there
be;
38 8:38
what
prayer
and
supplication
soever
be
made
by
any
man,
or
by
all
thy
people
Israel,
who
shall
know
every
man
the
plague
of
his
own
heart,
and
spread
forth
his
hands
toward
this
house:
39 8:39
then
hear
thou
in
heaven
thy dwelling-place,
and
forgive,
and
do,
and
render
unto
every
man
according
to
all
his
ways,
whose
heart
thou
knowest; (for
thou,
even
thou
only,
knowest
the
hearts
of
all
the
children
of
men;)
40 8:40
that
they
may
fear
thee
all
the
days
that
they
live
in
the
land
which
thou
gavest
unto
our
fathers.
41 8:41
Moreover
concerning
the
foreigner,
that
is
not
of
thy
people
Israel,
when
he
shall
come
out
of
a
far
country
for
thy
name’s
sake
42 8:42(for
they
shall
hear
of
thy
great
name,
and
of
thy
mighty
hand,
and
of
thine
outstretched
arm);
when
he
shall
come
and
pray
toward
this
house;
43 8:43
hear
thou
in
heaven
thy dwelling-place,
and
do
according
to
all
that
the
foreigner
calleth
to
thee
for;
that
all
the
peoples
of
the
earth
may
know
thy
name,
to
fear
thee,
as
doth
thy
people
Israel,
and
that
they
may
know
that
this
house
which
I
have
built
is
called
by
thy
name.
44 8:44
If
thy
people
go
out
to
battle
against
their
enemy,
by
whatsoever
way
thou shalt
send
them,
and
they
pray
unto
Jehovah
toward
the
city
which
thou
hast
chosen,
and
toward
the
house
which
I
have
built
for
thy
name;
45 8:45
then
hear
thou
in
heaven
their
prayer
and
their
supplication,
and
maintain
their
cause.
46 8:46
If
they
sin
against
thee (for
there
is
no
man
that
sinneth
not),
and
thou
be
angry
with
them,
and
deliver
them
to
the
enemy,
so
that
they
carry
them
away
captive
unto
the
land
of
the
enemy,
far
off
or
near;
47 8:47
yet
if
they
shall
bethink
themselves
in
the
land
whither
they
are
carried
captive,
and
turn
again,
and
make
supplication
unto
thee
in
the
land
of
them
that
carried
them
captive,
saying,
We
have
sinned,
and
have
done
perversely,
we
have
dealt
wickedly;
48 8:48
if
they
return
unto
thee
with
all
their
heart
and
with
all
their
soul
in
the
land
of
their
enemies,
who
carried
them
captive,
and
pray
unto
thee
toward
their
land,
which
thou
gavest
unto
their
fathers,
the
city
which
thou
hast
chosen,
and
the
house
which
I
have
built
for
thy
name:
49 8:49
then
hear
thou
their
prayer
and
their
supplication
in
heaven
thy dwelling-place,
and
maintain
their
cause;
50 8:50
and
forgive
thy
people
who
have
sinned
against
thee,
and
all
their
transgressions
wherein
they
have
transgressed
against
thee;
and
give
them
compassion
before
those
who
carried
them
captive,
that
they
may
have
compassion
on
them
51 8:51(for
they
are
thy
people,
and
thine
inheritance,
which
thou
broughtest
forth
out
of
Egypt,
from
the
midst
of
the
furnace
of
iron);
52 8:52
that
thine
eyes
may
be
open
unto
the
supplication
of
thy
servant,
and
unto
the
supplication
of
thy
people
Israel,
to
hearken
unto
them whensoever
they
cry
unto
thee.
53 8:53
For
thou
didst
separate
them
from
among
all
the
peoples
of
the
earth,
to
be
thine
inheritance,
as
thou
spakest
by
Moses
thy
servant,
when
thou
broughtest
our
fathers
out
of
Egypt,
O
Lord
Jehovah.
54 8:54
And
it
was
so,
that,
when
Solomon
had
made
an
end
of
praying
all
this
prayer
and
supplication
unto
Jehovah,
he
arose
from
before
the
altar
of
Jehovah,
from
kneeling
on
his
knees
with
his
hands
spread
forth
toward
heaven.
55 8:55
And
he
stood,
and
blessed
all
the
assembly
of
Israel
with
a
loud
voice,
saying,
56 8:56
Blessed
be
Jehovah,
that
hath
given
rest
unto
his
people
Israel,
according
to
all
that
he
promised:
there
hath
not
failed
one
word
of
all
his
good
promise,
which
he
promised
by
Moses
his
servant.
57 8:57
Jehovah
our
God
be
with
us,
as
he
was
with
our
fathers:
let
him
not
leave
us,
nor
forsake
us;
58 8:58
that
he
may
incline
our
hearts
unto
him,
to
walk
in
all
his
ways,
and
to
keep
his
commandments,
and
his
statutes,
and
his
ordinances,
which
he
commanded
our
fathers.
59 8:59
And
let
these
my
words,
wherewith
I
have
made
supplication
before
Jehovah,
be
nigh
unto
Jehovah
our
God
day
and
night,
that
he
maintain
the
cause
of
his
servant,
and
the
cause
of
his
people
Israel,
as
every
day
shall
require;
60 8:60
that
all
the
peoples
of
the
earth
may
know
that
Jehovah,
he
is
God;
there
is
none
else.
61 8:61
Let
your
heart
therefore
be
perfect
with
Jehovah
our
God,
to
walk
in
his
statutes,
and
to
keep
his
commandments,
as
at
this
day.
62 8:62
And
the
king,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
offered
sacrifice
before
Jehovah.
63 8:63
And
Solomon
offered
for
the
sacrifice
of peace-offerings,
which
he
offered
unto
Jehovah,
two
and
twenty
thousand
oxen,
and
a
hundred
and
twenty
thousand
sheep.
So
the
king
and
all
the
children
of
Israel
dedicated
the
house
of
Jehovah.
64 8:64
The
same
day
did
the
king
hallow
the
middle
of
the
court
that
was
before
the
house
of
Jehovah;
for
there
he
offered
the burnt-offering,
and
the meal-offering,
and
the
fat
of
the peace-offerings,
because
the
brazen
altar
that
was
before
Jehovah
was
too
little
to
receive
the burnt-offering,
and
the meal-offering,
and
the
fat
of
the peace-offerings.
65 8:65
So
Solomon
held
the
feast
at
that
time,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
a
great
assembly,
from
the
entrance
of
Hamath
unto
the
brook
of
Egypt,
before
Jehovah
our
God,
seven
days
and
seven
days,
even
fourteen
days.
66 8:66
On
the
eighth
day
he
sent
the
people
away;
and
they
blessed
the
king,
and
went
unto
their
tents
joyful
and
glad
of
heart
for
all
the
goodness
that
Jehovah
had
showed
unto
David
his
servant,
and
to
Israel
his
people.
91 9:1
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Solomon
had
finished
the
building
of
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
the
king’s
house,
and
all
Solomon’s
desire
which
he
was
pleased
to
do,
2 9:2
that
Jehovah
appeared
to
Solomon
the
second
time,
as
he
had
appeared
unto
him
at
Gibeon.
3 9:3
And
Jehovah
said
unto
him,
I
have
heard
thy
prayer
and
thy
supplication,
that
thou
hast
made
before
me:
I
have
hallowed
this
house,
which
thou
hast
built,
to
put
my
name
there
for
ever;
and
mine
eyes
and
my
heart
shall
be
there
perpetually.
4 9:4
And
as
for
thee,
if
thou
wilt
walk
before
me,
as
David
thy
father
walked,
in
integrity
of
heart,
and
in
uprightness,
to
do
according
to
all
that
I
have
commanded
thee,
and
wilt
keep
my
statutes
and
mine
ordinances;
5 9:5
then
I
will
establish
the
throne
of
thy
kingdom
over
Israel
for
ever,
according
as
I
promised
to
David
thy
father,
saying,
There
shall
not
fail
thee
a
man
upon
the
throne
of
Israel.
6 9:6
But
if
ye
shall
turn
away
from
following
me,
ye
or
your
children,
and
not
keep
my
commandments
and
my
statutes
which
I
have
set
before
you,
but
shall
go
and
serve
other
gods,
and
worship
them;
7 9:7
then
will
I
cut
off
Israel
out
of
the
land
which
I
have
given
them;
and
this
house,
which
I
have
hallowed
for
my
name,
will
I
cast
out
of
my
sight;
and
Israel
shall
be
a
proverb
and
a
byword
among
all
peoples.
8 9:8
And
though
this
house
is
so
high,
yet
shall
every
one
that
passeth
by
it
be
astonished,
and
shall
hiss;
and
they
shall
say,
Why
hath
Jehovah
done
thus
unto
this
land,
and
to
this
house?
9 9:9
and
they
shall
answer,
Because
they
forsook
Jehovah
their
God,
who
brought
forth
their
fathers
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt,
and
laid
hold
on
other
gods,
and
worshipped
them,
and
served
them:
therefore
hath
Jehovah
brought
all
this
evil
upon
them.
10 9:10
And
it
came
to
pass
at
the
end
of
twenty
years,
wherein
Solomon
had
built
the
two
houses,
the
house
of
Jehovah
and
the
king’s
house
11 9:11(now
Hiram
the
king
of
Tyre
had
furnished
Solomon
with cedar-trees
and fir-trees,
and
with
gold,
according
to
all
his
desire),
that
then
king
Solomon
gave
Hiram
twenty
cities
in
the
land
of
Galilee.
12 9:12
And
Hiram
came
out
from
Tyre
to
see
the
cities
which
Solomon
had
given
him;
and
they
pleased
him
not.
13 9:13
And
he
said,
What
cities
are
these
which
thou
hast
given
me,
my
brother?
And
he
called
them
the
land
of
Cabul
unto
this
day.
14 9:14
And
Hiram
sent
to
the
king
sixscore
talents
of
gold.
15 9:15
And
this
is
the
reason
of
the
levy
which
king
Solomon
raised,
to
build
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
his
own
house,
and
Millo,
and
the
wall
of
Jerusalem,
and
Hazor,
and
Megiddo,
and
Gezer.
16 9:16
Pharaoh
king
of
Egypt
had
gone
up,
and
taken
Gezer,
and
burnt
it
with
fire,
and
slain
the
Canaanites
that
dwelt
in
the
city,
and
given
it
for
a
portion
unto
his
daughter,
Solomon’s
wife.
17 9:17
And
Solomon
built
Gezer,
and
Beth-horon
the
nether,
18 9:18
and
Baalath,
and
Tamar
in
the
wilderness,
in
the
land,
19 9:19
and
all
the store-cities
that
Solomon
had,
and
the
cities
for
his
chariots,
and
the
cities
for
his
horsemen,
and
that
which
Solomon
desired
to
build
for
his
pleasure
in
Jerusalem,
and
in
Lebanon,
and
in
all
the
land
of
his
dominion.
20 9:20
As
for
all
the
people
that
were
left
of
the
Amorites,
the
Hittites,
the
Perizzites,
the
Hivites,
and
the
Jebusites,
who
were
not
of
the
children
of
Israel;
21 9:21
their
children
that
were
left
after
them
in
the
land,
whom
the
children
of
Israel
were
not
able
utterly
to
destroy,
of
them
did
Solomon
raise
a
levy
of bondservants
unto
this
day.
22 9:22
But
of
the
children
of
Israel
did
Solomon
make
no bondservants;
but
they
were
the
men
of
war,
and
his
servants,
and
his
princes,
and
his
captains,
and
rulers
of
his
chariots
and
of
his
horsemen.
23 9:23
These
were
the
chief
officers
that
were
over
Solomon’s
work,
five
hundred
and
fifty,
who
bare
rule
over
the
people
that
wrought
in
the
work.
24 9:24
But
Pharaoh’s
daughter
came
up
out
of
the
city
of
David
unto
her
house
which
Solomon
had
built
for
her:
then
did
he
build
Millo.
25 9:25
And
three
times
in
a
year
did
Solomon
offer burnt-offerings
and peace-offerings
upon
the
altar
which
he
built
unto
Jehovah,
burning
incense
therewith,
upon
the
altar
that
was
before
Jehovah.
So
he
finished
the
house.
26 9:26
And
king
Solomon
made
a
navy
of
ships
in
Ezion-geber,
which
is
beside
Eloth,
on
the
shore
of
the
Red
Sea,
in
the
land
of
Edom.
27 9:27
And
Hiram
sent
in
the
navy
his
servants,
shipmen
that
had
knowledge
of
the
sea,
with
the
servants
of
Solomon.
28 9:28
And
they
came
to
Ophir,
and
fetched
from
thence
gold,
four
hundred
and
twenty
talents,
and
brought
it
to
king
Solomon.
101 10:1
And
when
the
queen
of
Sheba
heard
of
the
fame
of
Solomon
concerning
the
name
of
Jehovah,
she
came
to
prove
him
with
hard
questions.
2 10:2
And
she
came
to
Jerusalem
with
a
very
great
train,
with
camels
that
bare
spices,
and
very
much
gold,
and
precious
stones;
and
when
she
was
come
to
Solomon,
she
communed
with
him
of
all
that
was
in
her
heart.
3 10:3
And
Solomon
told
her
all
her
questions:
there
was
not
anything
hid
from
the
king
which
he
told
her
not.
4 10:4
And
when
the
queen
of
Sheba
had
seen
all
the
wisdom
of
Solomon,
and
the
house
that
he
had
built,
5 10:5
and
the
food
of
his
table,
and
the
sitting
of
his
servants,
and
the
attendance
of
his
ministers,
and
their
apparel,
and
his
cupbearers,
and
his
ascent
by
which
he
went
up
unto
the
house
of
Jehovah;
there
was
no
more
spirit
in
her.
6 10:6
And
she
said
to
the
king,
It
was
a
true
report
that
I
heard
in
mine
own
land
of
thine
acts,
and
of
thy
wisdom.
7 10:7
Howbeit
I
believed
not
the
words,
until
I
came,
and
mine
eyes
had
seen
it:
and,
behold,
the
half
was
not
told
me;
thy
wisdom
and
prosperity
exceed
the
fame
which
I
heard.
8 10:8
Happy
are
thy
men,
happy
are
these
thy
servants,
that
stand
continually
before
thee,
and
that
hear
thy
wisdom.
9 10:9
Blessed
be
Jehovah
thy
God,
who
delighted
in
thee,
to
set
thee
on
the
throne
of
Israel:
because
Jehovah
loved
Israel
for
ever,
therefore
made
he
thee
king,
to
do
justice
and
righteousness.
10 10:10
And
she
gave
the
king
a
hundred
and
twenty
talents
of
gold,
and
of
spices
very
great
store,
and
precious
stones:
there
came
no
more
such
abundance
of
spices
as
these
which
the
queen
of
Sheba
gave
to
king
Solomon.
11 10:11
And
the
navy
also
of
Hiram,
that
brought
gold
from
Ophir,
brought
in
from
Ophir
great
plenty
of almug-trees
and
precious
stones.
12 10:12
And
the
king
made
of
the almug-trees
pillars
for
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
for
the
king’s
house,
harps
also
and
psalteries
for
the
singers:
there
came
no
such almug-trees,
nor
were
seen,
unto
this
day.
13 10:13
And
king
Solomon
gave
to
the
queen
of
Sheba
all
her
desire,
whatsoever
she
asked,
besides
that
which
Solomon
gave
her
of
his
royal
bounty.
So
she
turned,
and
went
to
her
own
land,
she
and
her
servants.
14 10:14
Now
the
weight
of
gold
that
came
to
Solomon
in
one
year
was
six
hundred
threescore
and
six
talents
of
gold,
15 10:15
besides
that
which
the
traders
brought,
and
the traffic
of
the
merchants,
and
of
all
the
kings
of
the
mingled
people,
and
of
the
governors
of
the
country.
16 10:16
And
king
Solomon
made
two
hundred
bucklers
of
beaten
gold;
six
hundred
shekels
of
gold
went
to
one
buckler.
17 10:17
And
he
made
three
hundred
shields
of
beaten
gold;
three
pounds
of
gold
went
to
one
shield:
and
the
king
put
them
in
the
house
of
the
forest
of
Lebanon.
18 10:18
Moreover
the
king
made
a
great
throne
of
ivory,
and
overlaid
it
with
the
finest
gold.
19 10:19
There
were
six
steps
to
the
throne,
and
the
top
of
the
throne
was
round
behind;
and
there
were
stays
on
either
side
by
the
place
of
the
seat,
and
two
lions
standing
beside
the
stays.
20 10:20
And
twelve
lions
stood
there
on
the
one
side
and
on
the
other
upon
the
six
steps:
there
was
not
the
like
made
in
any
kingdom.
21 10:21
And
all
king
Solomon’s
drinking
vessels
were
of
gold,
and
all
the
vessels
of
the
house
of
the
forest
of
Lebanon
were
of
pure
gold:
none
were
of
silver;
it
was
nothing
accounted
of
in
the
days
of
Solomon.
22 10:22
For
the
king
had
at
sea
a
navy
of
Tarshish
with
the
navy
of
Hiram:
once
every
three
years
came
the
navy
of
Tarshish,
bringing
gold,
and
silver,
ivory,
and
apes,
and
peacocks.
23 10:23
So
king
Solomon
exceeded
all
the
kings
of
the
earth
in
riches
and
in
wisdom.
24 10:24
And
all
the
earth
sought
the
presence
of
Solomon,
to
hear
his
wisdom,
which
God
had
put
in
his
heart.
25 10:25
And
they
brought
every
man
his
tribute,
vessels
of
silver,
and
vessels
of
gold,
and
raiment,
and
armor,
and
spices,
horses,
and
mules,
a
rate
year
by
year.
26 10:26
And
Solomon
gathered
together
chariots
and
horsemen:
and
he
had
a
thousand
and
four
hundred
chariots,
and
twelve
thousand
horsemen,
that
he
bestowed
in
the
chariot
cities,
and
with
the
king
at
Jerusalem.
27 10:27
And
the
king
made
silver
to
be
in
Jerusalem
as
stones,
and
cedars
made
he
to
be
as
the sycomore-trees
that
are
in
the
lowland,
for
abundance.
28 10:28
And
the
horses
which
Solomon
had
were
brought
out
of
Egypt;
and
the
king’s
merchants
received
them
in
droves,
each
drove
at
a
price.
29 10:29
And
a
chariot
came
up
and
went
out
of
Egypt
for
six
hundred
shekels
of
silver,
and
a
horse
for
a
hundred
and
fifty;
and
so
for
all
the
kings
of
the
Hittites,
and
for
the
kings
of
Syria,
did
they
bring
them
out
by
their
means.
111 11:1
Now
king
Solomon
loved
many
foreign
women,
together
with
the
daughter
of
Pharaoh,
women
of
the
Moabites,
Ammonites,
Edomites,
Sidonians,
and
Hittites;
2 11:2
of
the
nations
concerning
which
Jehovah
said
unto
the
children
of
Israel,
Ye
shall
not
go
among
them,
neither
shall
they
come
among
you;
for
surely
they
will
turn
away
your
heart
after
their
gods:
Solomon
clave
unto
these
in
love.
3 11:3
And
he
had
seven
hundred
wives,
princesses,
and
three
hundred
concubines;
and
his
wives
turned
away
his
heart.
4 11:4
For
it
came
to
pass,
when
Solomon
was
old,
that
his
wives
turned
away
his
heart
after
other
gods;
and
his
heart
was
not
perfect
with
Jehovah
his
God,
as
was
the
heart
of
David
his
father.
5 11:5
For
Solomon
went
after
Ashtoreth
the
goddess
of
the
Sidonians,
and
after
Milcom
the
abomination
of
the
Ammonites.
6 11:6
And
Solomon
did
that
which
was
evil
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah,
and
went
not
fully
after
Jehovah,
as
did
David
his
father.
7 11:7
Then
did
Solomon
build
a
high
place
for
Chemosh
the
abomination
of
Moab,
in
the
mount
that
is
before
Jerusalem,
and
for
Molech
the
abomination
of
the
children
of
Ammon.
8 11:8
And
so
did
he
for
all
his
foreign
wives,
who
burnt
incense
and
sacrificed
unto
their
gods.
9 11:9
And
Jehovah
was
angry
with
Solomon,
because
his
heart
was
turned
away
from
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
who
had
appeared
unto
him
twice,
10 11:10
and
had
commanded
him
concerning
this
thing,
that
he
should
not
go
after
other
gods:
but
he
kept
not
that
which
Jehovah
commanded.
11 11:11
Wherefore
Jehovah
said
unto
Solomon,
Forasmuch
as
this
is
done
of
thee,
and
thou
hast
not
kept
my
covenant
and
my
statutes,
which
I
have
commanded
thee,
I
will
surely
rend
the
kingdom
from
thee,
and
will
give
it
to
thy
servant.
12 11:12
Notwithstanding
in
thy
days
I
will
not
do
it,
for
David
thy
father’s
sake:
but
I
will
rend
it
out
of
the
hand
of
thy
son.
13 11:13
Howbeit
I
will
not
rend
away
all
the
kingdom;
but
I
will
give
one
tribe
to
thy
son,
for
David
my
servant’s
sake,
and
for
Jerusalem’s
sake
which
I
have
chosen.
14 11:14
And
Jehovah
raised
up
an
adversary
unto
Solomon,
Hadad
the
Edomite:
he
was
of
the
king’s
seed
in
Edom.
15 11:15
For
it
came
to
pass,
when
David
was
in
Edom,
and
Joab
the
captain
of
the
host
was
gone
up
to
bury
the
slain,
and
had
smitten
every
male
in
Edom
16 11:16(for
Joab
and
all
Israel
remained
there
six
months,
until
he
had
cut
off
every
male
in
Edom);
17 11:17
that
Hadad
fled,
he
and
certain
Edomites
of
his
father’s
servants
with
him,
to
go
into
Egypt,
Hadad
being
yet
a
little
child.
18 11:18
And
they
arose
out
of
Midian,
and
came
to
Paran;
and
they
took
men
with
them
out
of
Paran,
and
they
came
to
Egypt,
unto
Pharaoh
king
of
Egypt,
who
gave
him
a
house,
and
appointed
him
victuals,
and
gave
him
land.
19 11:19
And
Hadad
found
great
favor
in
the
sight
of
Pharaoh,
so
that
he
gave
him
to
wife
the
sister
of
his
own
wife,
the
sister
of
Tahpenes
the
queen.
20 11:20
And
the
sister
of
Tahpenes
bare
him
Genubath
his
son,
whom
Tahpenes
weaned
in
Pharaoh’s
house;
and
Genubath
was
in
Pharaoh’s
house
among
the
sons
of
Pharaoh.
21 11:21
And
when
Hadad
heard
in
Egypt
that
David
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
that
Joab
the
captain
of
the
host
was
dead,
Hadad
said
to
Pharaoh,
Let
me
depart,
that
I
may
go
to
mine
own
country.
22 11:22
Then
Pharaoh
said
unto
him,
But
what
hast
thou
lacked
with
me,
that,
behold,
thou
seekest
to
go
to
thine
own
country?
And
he
answered,
Nothing:
howbeit
only
let
me
depart.
23 11:23
And
God
raised
up
another
adversary
unto
him,
Rezon
the
son
of
Eliada,
who
had
fled
from
his
lord
Hadadezer
king
of
Zobah.
24 11:24
And
he
gathered
men
unto
him,
and
became
captain
over
a
troop,
when
David
slew
them
of
Zobah:
and
they
went
to
Damascus,
and
dwelt
therein,
and
reigned
in
Damascus.
25 11:25
And
he
was
an
adversary
to
Israel
all
the
days
of
Solomon,
besides
the
mischief
that
Hadad
did:
and
he
abhorred
Israel,
and
reigned
over
Syria.
26 11:26
And
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat,
an
Ephraimite
of
Zeredah,
a
servant
of
Solomon,
whose
mother’s
name
was
Zeruah,
a
widow,
he
also
lifted
up
his
hand
against
the
king.
27 11:27
And
this
was
the
reason
why
he
lifted
up
his
hand
against
the
king:
Solomon
built
Millo,
and
repaired
the
breach
of
the
city
of
David
his
father.
28 11:28
And
the
man
Jeroboam
was
a
mighty
man
of
valor;
and
Solomon
saw
the
young
man
that
he
was
industrious,
and
he
gave
him
charge
over
all
the
labor
of
the
house
of
Joseph.
29 11:29
And
it
came
to
pass
at
that
time,
when
Jeroboam
went
out
of
Jerusalem,
that
the
prophet
Ahijah
the
Shilonite
found
him
in
the
way;
now
Ahijah
had
clad
himself
with
a
new
garment;
and
they
two
were
alone
in
the
field.
30 11:30
And
Ahijah
laid
hold
of
the
new
garment
that
was
on
him,
and
rent
it
in
twelve
pieces.
31 11:31
And
he
said
to
Jeroboam,
Take
thee
ten
pieces;
for
thus
saith
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
Behold,
I
will
rend
the
kingdom
out
of
the
hand
of
Solomon,
and
will
give
ten
tribes
to
thee
32 11:32(but
he
shall
have
one
tribe,
for
my
servant
David’s
sake
and
for
Jerusalem’s
sake,
the
city
which
I
have
chosen
out
of
all
the
tribes
of
Israel);
33 11:33
because
that
they
have
forsaken
me,
and
have
worshipped
Ashtoreth
the
goddess
of
the
Sidonians,
Chemosh
the
god
of
Moab,
and
Milcom
the
god
of
the
children
of
Ammon;
and
they
have
not
walked
in
my
ways,
to
do
that
which
is
right
in
mine
eyes,
and
to
keep
my
statutes
and
mine
ordinances,
as
did
David
his
father.
34 11:34
Howbeit
I
will
not
take
the
whole
kingdom
out
of
his
hand;
but
I
will
make
him
prince
all
the
days
of
his
life,
for
David
my
servant’s
sake
whom
I
chose,
who
kept
my
commandments
and
my
statutes;
35 11:35
but
I
will
take
the
kingdom
out
of
his
son’s
hand,
and
will
give
it
unto
thee,
even
ten
tribes.
36 11:36
And
unto
his
son
will
I
give
one
tribe,
that
David
my
servant
may
have
a
lamp
alway
before
me
in
Jerusalem,
the
city
which
I
have
chosen
me
to
put
my
name
there.
37 11:37
And
I
will
take
thee,
and
thou shalt
reign
according
to
all
that
thy
soul
desireth,
and shalt
be
king
over
Israel.
38 11:38
And
it
shall
be,
if
thou
wilt
hearken
unto
all
that
I
command
thee,
and
wilt
walk
in
my
ways,
and
do
that
which
is
right
in
mine
eyes,
to
keep
my
statutes
and
my
commandments,
as
David
my
servant
did;
that
I
will
be
with
thee,
and
will
build
thee
a
sure
house,
as
I
built
for
David,
and
will
give
Israel
unto
thee.
39 11:39
And
I
will
for
this
afflict
the
seed
of
David,
but
not
for
ever.
40 11:40
Solomon
sought
therefore
to
kill
Jeroboam;
but
Jeroboam
arose,
and
fled
into
Egypt,
unto
Shishak
king
of
Egypt,
and
was
in
Egypt
until
the
death
of
Solomon.
41 11:41
Now
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Solomon,
and
all
that
he
did,
and
his
wisdom,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
acts
of
Solomon?
42 11:42
And
the
time
that
Solomon
reigned
in
Jerusalem
over
all
Israel
was
forty
years.
43 11:43
And
Solomon
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
was
buried
in
the
city
of
David
his
father:
and
Rehoboam
his
son
reigned
in
his
stead.
121 12:1
And
Rehoboam
went
to
Shechem:
for
all
Israel
were
come
to
Shechem
to
make
him
king.
2 12:2
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat
heard
of
it (for
he
was
yet
in
Egypt,
whither
he
had
fled
from
the
presence
of
king
Solomon,
and
Jeroboam
dwelt
in
Egypt,
3 12:3
and
they
sent
and
called
him),
that
Jeroboam
and
all
the
assembly
of
Israel
came,
and
spake
unto
Rehoboam,
saying,
4 12:4
Thy
father
made
our
yoke
grievous:
now
therefore
make
thou
the
grievous
service
of
thy
father,
and
his
heavy
yoke
which
he
put
upon
us,
lighter,
and
we
will
serve
thee.
5 12:5
And
he
said
unto
them,
Depart
yet
for
three
days,
then
come
again
to
me.
And
the
people
departed.
6 12:6
And
king
Rehoboam
took
counsel
with
the
old
men,
that
had
stood
before
Solomon
his
father
while
he
yet
lived,
saying,
What
counsel
give
ye
me
to
return
answer
to
this
people?
7 12:7
And
they
spake
unto
him,
saying,
If
thou
wilt
be
a
servant
unto
this
people
this
day,
and
wilt
serve
them,
and
answer
them,
and
speak
good
words
to
them,
then
they
will
be
thy
servants
for
ever.
8 12:8
But
he
forsook
the
counsel
of
the
old
men
which
they
had
given
him,
and
took
counsel
with
the
young
men
that
were
grown
up
with
him,
that
stood
before
him.
9 12:9
And
he
said
unto
them,
What
counsel
give
ye,
that
we
may
return
answer
to
this
people,
who
have
spoken
to
me,
saying,
Make
the
yoke
that
thy
father
did
put
upon
us
lighter?
10 12:10
And
the
young
men
that
were
grown
up
with
him
spake
unto
him,
saying,
Thus shalt
thou
say
unto
this
people
that
spake
unto
thee,
saying,
Thy
father
made
our
yoke
heavy,
but
make
thou
it
lighter
unto
us;
thus shalt
thou
speak
unto
them,
My
little
finger
is
thicker
than
my
father’s
loins.
11 12:11
And
now
whereas
my
father
did
lade
you
with
a
heavy
yoke,
I
will
add
to
your
yoke:
my
father
chastised
you
with
whips,
but
I
will
chastise
you
with
scorpions.
12 12:12
So
Jeroboam
and
all
the
people
came
to
Rehoboam
the
third
day,
as
the
king
bade,
saying,
Come
to
me
again
the
third
day.
13 12:13
And
the
king
answered
the
people
roughly,
and
forsook
the
counsel
of
the
old
men
which
they
had
given
him,
14 12:14
and
spake
to
them
after
the
counsel
of
the
young
men,
saying,
My
father
made
your
yoke
heavy,
but
I
will
add
to
your
yoke:
my
father
chastised
you
with
whips,
but
I
will
chastise
you
with
scorpions.
15 12:15
So
the
king
hearkened
not
unto
the
people;
for
it
was
a
thing
brought
about
of
Jehovah,
that
he
might
establish
his
word,
which
Jehovah
spake
by
Ahijah
the
Shilonite
to
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat.
16 12:16
And
when
all
Israel
saw
that
the
king
hearkened
not
unto
them,
the
people
answered
the
king,
saying,
What
portion
have
we
in
David?
neither
have
we
inheritance
in
the
son
of
Jesse:
to
your
tents,
O
Israel:
now
see
to
thine
own
house,
David.
So
Israel
departed
unto
their
tents.
17 12:17
But
as
for
the
children
of
Israel
that
dwelt
in
the
cities
of
Judah,
Rehoboam
reigned
over
them.
18 12:18
Then
king
Rehoboam
sent
Adoram,
who
was
over
the
men
subject
to taskwork;
and
all
Israel
stoned
him
to
death
with
stones.
And
king
Rehoboam
made
speed
to
get
him
up
to
his
chariot,
to
flee
to
Jerusalem.
19 12:19
So
Israel
rebelled
against
the
house
of
David
unto
this
day.
20 12:20
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
all
Israel
heard
that
Jeroboam
was
returned,
that
they
sent
and
called
him
unto
the
congregation,
and
made
him
king
over
all
Israel:
there
was
none
that
followed
the
house
of
David,
but
the
tribe
of
Judah
only.
21 12:21
And
when
Rehoboam
was
come
to
Jerusalem,
he
assembled
all
the
house
of
Judah,
and
the
tribe
of
Benjamin,
a
hundred
and
fourscore
thousand
chosen
men,
that
were
warriors,
to
fight
against
the
house
of
Israel,
to
bring
the
kingdom
again
to
Rehoboam
the
son
of
Solomon.
22 12:22
But
the
word
of
God
came
unto
Shemaiah
the
man
of
God,
saying,
23 12:23
Speak
unto
Rehoboam
the
son
of
Solomon,
king
of
Judah,
and
unto
all
the
house
of
Judah
and
Benjamin,
and
to
the
rest
of
the
people,
saying,
24 12:24
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
Ye
shall
not
go
up,
nor
fight
against
your
brethren
the
children
of
Israel:
return
every
man
to
his
house;
for
this
thing
is
of
me.
So
they
hearkened
unto
the
word
of
Jehovah,
and
returned
and
went
their
way,
according
to
the
word
of
Jehovah.
25 12:25
Then
Jeroboam
built
Shechem
in
the hill-country
of
Ephraim,
and
dwelt
therein;
and
he
went
out
from
thence,
and
built
Penuel.
26 12:26
And
Jeroboam
said
in
his
heart,
Now
will
the
kingdom
return
to
the
house
of
David:
27 12:27
if
this
people
go
up
to
offer
sacrifices
in
the
house
of
Jehovah
at
Jerusalem,
then
will
the
heart
of
this
people
turn
again
unto
their
lord,
even
unto
Rehoboam
king
of
Judah;
and
they
will
kill
me,
and
return
to
Rehoboam
king
of
Judah.
28 12:28Whereupon
the
king
took
counsel,
and
made
two
calves
of
gold;
and
he
said
unto
them,
It
is
too
much
for
you
to
go
up
to
Jerusalem:
behold
thy
gods,
O
Israel,
which
brought
thee
up
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt.
29 12:29
And
he
set
the
one
in
Beth-el,
and
the
other
put
he
in
Dan.
30 12:30
And
this
thing
became
a
sin;
for
the
people
went
to
worship
before
the
one,
even
unto
Dan.
31 12:31
And
he
made
houses
of
high
places,
and
made
priests
from
among
all
the
people,
that
were
not
of
the
sons
of
Levi.
32 12:32
And
Jeroboam
ordained
a
feast
in
the
eighth
month,
on
the
fifteenth
day
of
the
month,
like
unto
the
feast
that
is
in
Judah,
and
he
went
up
unto
the
altar;
so
did
he
in
Beth-el,
sacrificing
unto
the
calves
that
he
had
made:
and
he
placed
in
Beth-el
the
priests
of
the
high
places
that
he
had
made.
33 12:33
And
he
went
up
unto
the
altar
which
he
had
made
in
Beth-el
on
the
fifteenth
day
in
the
eighth
month,
even
in
the
month
which
he
had
devised
of
his
own
heart:
and
he
ordained
a
feast
for
the
children
of
Israel,
and
went
up
unto
the
altar,
to
burn
incense.
131 13:1
And,
behold,
there
came
a
man
of
God
out
of
Judah
by
the
word
of
Jehovah
unto
Beth-el:
and
Jeroboam
was
standing
by
the
altar
to
burn
incense.
2 13:2
And
he
cried
against
the
altar
by
the
word
of
Jehovah,
and
said,
O
altar,
altar,
thus
saith
Jehovah:
Behold,
a
son
shall
be
born
unto
the
house
of
David,
Josiah
by
name;
and
upon
thee
shall
he
sacrifice
the
priests
of
the
high
places
that
burn
incense
upon
thee,
and
men’s
bones
shall
they
burn
upon
thee.
3 13:3
And
he
gave
a
sign
the
same
day,
saying,
This
is
the
sign
which
Jehovah
hath
spoken:
Behold,
the
altar
shall
be
rent,
and
the
ashes
that
are
upon
it
shall
be
poured
out.
4 13:4
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
the
king
heard
the
saying
of
the
man
of
God,
which
he
cried
against
the
altar
in
Beth-el,
that
Jeroboam
put
forth
his
hand
from
the
altar,
saying,
Lay
hold
on
him.
And
his
hand,
which
he
put
forth
against
him,
dried
up,
so
that
he
could
not
draw
it
back
again
to
him.
5 13:5
The
altar
also
was
rent,
and
the
ashes
poured
out
from
the
altar,
according
to
the
sign
which
the
man
of
God
had
given
by
the
word
of
Jehovah.
6 13:6
And
the
king
answered
and
said
unto
the
man
of
God,
Entreat
now
the
favor
of
Jehovah
thy
God,
and
pray
for
me,
that
my
hand
may
be
restored
me
again.
And
the
man
of
God
entreated
Jehovah,
and
the
king’s
hand
was
restored
him
again,
and
became
as
it
was
before.
7 13:7
And
the
king
said
unto
the
man
of
God,
Come
home
with
me,
and
refresh
thyself,
and
I
will
give
thee
a
reward.
8 13:8
And
the
man
of
God
said
unto
the
king,
If
thou
wilt
give
me
half
thy
house,
I
will
not
go
in
with
thee,
neither
will
I
eat
bread
nor
drink
water
in
this
place;
9 13:9
for
so
was
it
charged
me
by
the
word
of
Jehovah,
saying,
Thou shalt
eat
no
bread,
nor
drink
water,
neither
return
by
the
way
that
thou
camest.
10 13:10
So
he
went
another
way,
and
returned
not
by
the
way
that
he
came
to
Beth-el.
11 13:11
Now
there
dwelt
an
old
prophet
in
Beth-el;
and
one
of
his
sons
came
and
told
him
all
the
works
that
the
man
of
God
had
done
that
day
in
Beth-el:
the
words
which
he
had
spoken
unto
the
king,
them
also
they
told
unto
their
father.
12 13:12
And
their
father
said
unto
them,
What
way
went
he?
Now
his
sons
had
seen
what
way
the
man
of
God
went,
that
came
from
Judah.
13 13:13
And
he
said
unto
his
sons,
Saddle
me
the
ass.
So
they
saddled
him
the
ass;
and
he
rode
thereon.
14 13:14
And
he
went
after
the
man
of
God,
and
found
him
sitting
under
an
oak;
and
he
said
unto
him,
Art
thou
the
man
of
God
that
camest
from
Judah?
And
he
said,
I
am.
15 13:15
Then
he
said
unto
him,
Come
home
with
me,
and
eat
bread.
16 13:16
And
he
said,
I
may
not
return
with
thee,
nor
go
in
with
thee;
neither
will
I
eat
bread
nor
drink
water
with
thee
in
this
place:
17 13:17
for
it
was
said
to
me
by
the
word
of
Jehovah,
Thou shalt
eat
no
bread
nor
drink
water
there,
nor
turn
again
to
go
by
the
way
that
thou
camest.
18 13:18
And
he
said
unto
him,
I
also
am
a
prophet
as
thou
art;
and
an
angel
spake
unto
me
by
the
word
of
Jehovah,
saying,
Bring
him
back
with
thee
into
thy
house,
that
he
may
eat
bread
and
drink
water.
But
he
lied
unto
him.
19 13:19
So
he
went
back
with
him,
and
did
eat
bread
in
his
house,
and
drank
water.
20 13:20
And
it
came
to
pass,
as
they
sat
at
the
table,
that
the
word
of
Jehovah
came
unto
the
prophet
that
brought
him
back;
21 13:21
and
he
cried
unto
the
man
of
God
that
came
from
Judah,
saying,
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
Forasmuch
as
thou
hast
been
disobedient
unto
the
mouth
of
Jehovah,
and
hast
not
kept
the
commandment
which
Jehovah
thy
God
commanded
thee,
22 13:22
but
camest
back,
and
hast
eaten
bread
and
drunk
water
in
the
place
of
which
he
said
to
thee,
Eat
no
bread,
and
drink
no
water;
thy
body
shall
not
come
unto
the
sepulchre
of
thy
fathers.
23 13:23
And
it
came
to
pass,
after
he
had
eaten
bread,
and
after
he
had
drunk,
that
he
saddled
for
him
the
ass,
to
wit,
for
the
prophet
whom
he
had
brought
back.
24 13:24
And
when
he
was
gone,
a
lion
met
him
by
the
way,
and
slew
him:
and
his
body
was
cast
in
the
way,
and
the
ass
stood
by
it;
the
lion
also
stood
by
the
body.
25 13:25
And,
behold,
men
passed
by,
and
saw
the
body
cast
in
the
way,
and
the
lion
standing
by
the
body;
and
they
came
and
told
it
in
the
city
where
the
old
prophet
dwelt.
26 13:26
And
when
the
prophet
that
brought
him
back
from
the
way
heard
thereof,
he
said,
It
is
the
man
of
God,
who
was
disobedient
unto
the
mouth
of
Jehovah:
therefore
Jehovah
hath
delivered
him
unto
the
lion,
which
hath
torn
him,
and
slain
him,
according
to
the
word
of
Jehovah,
which
he
spake
unto
him.
27 13:27
And
he
spake
to
his
sons,
saying,
Saddle
me
the
ass.
And
they
saddled
it.
28 13:28
And
he
went
and
found
his
body
cast
in
the
way,
and
the
ass
and
the
lion
standing
by
the
body:
the
lion
had
not
eaten
the
body,
nor
torn
the
ass.
29 13:29
And
the
prophet
took
up
the
body
of
the
man
of
God,
and
laid
it
upon
the
ass,
and
brought
it
back;
and
he
came
to
the
city
of
the
old
prophet,
to
mourn,
and
to
bury
him.
30 13:30
And
he
laid
his
body
in
his
own
grave;
and
they
mourned
over
him,
saying,
Alas,
my
brother!
31 13:31
And
it
came
to
pass,
after
he
had
buried
him,
that
he
spake
to
his
sons,
saying,
When
I
am
dead,
then
bury
me
in
the
sepulchre
wherein
the
man
of
God
is
buried;
lay
my
bones
beside
his
bones.
32 13:32
For
the
saying
which
he
cried
by
the
word
of
Jehovah
against
the
altar
in
Beth-el,
and
against
all
the
houses
of
the
high
places
which
are
in
the
cities
of
Samaria,
shall
surely
come
to
pass.
33 13:33
After
this
thing
Jeroboam
returned
not
from
his
evil
way,
but
made
again
from
among
all
the
people
priests
of
the
high
places:
whosoever
would,
he
consecrated
him,
that
there
might
be
priests
of
the
high
places.
34 13:34
And
this
thing
became
sin
unto
the
house
of
Jeroboam,
even
to
cut
it
off,
and
to
destroy
it
from
off
the
face
of
the
earth.
141 14:1
At
that
time
Abijah
the
son
of
Jeroboam
fell
sick.
2 14:2
And
Jeroboam
said
to
his
wife,
Arise,
I
pray
thee,
and
disguise
thyself,
that
thou
be
not
known
to
be
the
wife
of
Jeroboam;
and
get
thee
to
Shiloh:
behold,
there
is
Ahijah
the
prophet,
who
spake
concerning
me
that
I
should
be
king
over
this
people.
3 14:3
And
take
with
thee
ten
loaves,
and
cakes,
and
a
cruse
of
honey,
and
go
to
him:
he
will
tell
thee
what
shall
become
of
the
child.
4 14:4
And
Jeroboam’s
wife
did
so,
and
arose,
and
went
to
Shiloh,
and
came
to
the
house
of
Ahijah.
Now
Ahijah
could
not
see;
for
his
eyes
were
set
by
reason
of
his
age.
5 14:5
And
Jehovah
said
unto
Ahijah,
Behold,
the
wife
of
Jeroboam
cometh
to
inquire
of
thee
concerning
her
son;
for
he
is
sick:
thus
and
thus shalt
thou
say
unto
her;
for
it
will
be,
when
she
cometh
in,
that
she
will feign
herself
to
be
another
woman.
6 14:6
And
it
was
so,
when
Ahijah
heard
the
sound
of
her
feet,
as
she
came
in
at
the
door,
that
he
said,
Come
in,
thou
wife
of
Jeroboam;
why
feignest
thou
thyself
to
be
another?
for
I
am
sent
to
thee
with
heavy
tidings.
7 14:7
Go,
tell
Jeroboam,
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel:
Forasmuch
as
I
exalted
thee
from
among
the
people,
and
made
thee
prince
over
my
people
Israel,
8 14:8
and
rent
the
kingdom
away
from
the
house
of
David,
and
gave
it
thee;
and
yet
thou
hast
not
been
as
my
servant
David,
who
kept
my
commandments,
and
who
followed
me
with
all
his
heart,
to
do
that
only
which
was
right
in
mine
eyes,
9 14:9
but
hast
done
evil
above
all
that
were
before
thee,
and
hast
gone
and
made
thee
other
gods,
and
molten
images,
to
provoke
me
to
anger,
and
hast
cast
me
behind
thy
back:
10 14:10
therefore,
behold,
I
will
bring
evil
upon
the
house
of
Jeroboam,
and
will
cut
off
from
Jeroboam
every man-child,
him
that
is
shut
up
and
him
that
is
left
at
large
in
Israel,
and
will
utterly
sweep
away
the
house
of
Jeroboam,
as
a
man sweepeth
away
dung,
till
it
be
all
gone.
11 14:11
Him
that
dieth
of
Jeroboam
in
the
city
shall
the
dogs
eat;
and
him
that
dieth
in
the
field
shall
the
birds
of
the
heavens
eat:
for
Jehovah
hath
spoken
it.
12 14:12
Arise
thou
therefore,
get
thee
to
thy
house:
and
when
thy
feet
enter
into
the
city,
the
child
shall
die.
13 14:13
And
all
Israel
shall
mourn
for
him,
and
bury
him;
for
he
only
of
Jeroboam
shall
come
to
the
grave,
because
in
him
there
is
found
some
good
thing
toward
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
in
the
house
of
Jeroboam.
14 14:14
Moreover
Jehovah
will
raise
him
up
a
king
over
Israel,
who
shall
cut
off
the
house
of
Jeroboam
that
day:
but
what?
even
now.
15 14:15
For
Jehovah
will
smite
Israel,
as
a
reed
is
shaken
in
the
water;
and
he
will
root
up
Israel
out
of
this
good
land
which
he
gave
to
their
fathers,
and
will
scatter
them
beyond
the
River,
because
they
have
made
their
Asherim,
provoking
Jehovah
to
anger.
16 14:16
And
he
will
give
Israel
up
because
of
the
sins
of
Jeroboam,
which
he
hath
sinned,
and
wherewith
he
hath
made
Israel
to
sin.
17 14:17
And
Jeroboam’s
wife
arose,
and
departed,
and
came
to
Tirzah:
and
as
she
came
to
the
threshold
of
the
house,
the
child
died.
18 14:18
And
all
Israel
buried
him,
and
mourned
for
him,
according
to
the
word
of
Jehovah,
which
he
spake
by
his
servant
Ahijah
the
prophet.
19 14:19
And
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Jeroboam,
how
he
warred,
and
how
he
reigned,
behold,
they
are
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Israel.
20 14:20
And
the
days
which
Jeroboam
reigned
were
two
and
twenty
years:
and
he
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
Nadab
his
son
reigned
in
his
stead.
21 14:21
And
Rehoboam
the
son
of
Solomon
reigned
in
Judah.
Rehoboam
was
forty
and
one
years
old
when
he
began
to
reign,
and
he
reigned
seventeen
years
in
Jerusalem,
the
city
which
Jehovah
had
chosen
out
of
all
the
tribes
of
Israel,
to
put
his
name
there:
and
his
mother’s
name
was
Naamah
the
Ammonitess.
22 14:22
And
Judah
did
that
which
was
evil
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah,
and
they
provoked
him
to
jealousy
with
their
sins
which
they
committed,
above
all
that
their
fathers
had
done.
23 14:23
For
they
also
built
them
high
places,
and
pillars,
and
Asherim,
on
every
high
hill,
and
under
every
green
tree;
24 14:24
and
there
were
also
sodomites
in
the
land:
they
did
according
to
all
the
abominations
of
the
nations
which
Jehovah
drove
out
before
the
children
of
Israel.
25 14:25
And
it
came
to
pass
in
the
fifth
year
of
king
Rehoboam,
that
Shishak
king
of
Egypt
came
up
against
Jerusalem;
26 14:26
and
he
took
away
the
treasures
of
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
the
treasures
of
the
king’s
house;
he
even
took
away
all:
and
he
took
away
all
the
shields
of
gold
which
Solomon
had
made.
27 14:27
And
king
Rehoboam
made
in
their
stead
shields
of
brass,
and
committed
them
to
the
hands
of
the
captains
of
the
guard,
who
kept
the
door
of
the
king’s
house.
28 14:28
And
it
was
so,
that,
as
oft
as
the
king
went
into
the
house
of
Jehovah,
the
guard
bare
them,
and
brought
them
back
into
the guard-chamber.
29 14:29
Now
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Rehoboam,
and
all
that
he
did,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Judah?
30 14:30
And
there
was
war
between
Rehoboam
and
Jeroboam
continually.
31 14:31
And
Rehoboam
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
was
buried
with
his
fathers
in
the
city
of
David:
and
his
mother’s
name
was
Naamah
the
Ammonitess.
And
Abijam
his
son
reigned
in
his
stead.
151 15:1
Now
in
the
eighteenth
year
of
king
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat
began
Abijam
to
reign
over
Judah.
2 15:2
Three
years
reigned
he
in
Jerusalem:
and
his
mother’s
name
was
Maacah
the
daughter
of
Abishalom.
3 15:3
And
he
walked
in
all
the
sins
of
his
father,
which
he
had
done
before
him;
and
his
heart
was
not
perfect
with
Jehovah
his
God,
as
the
heart
of
David
his
father.
4 15:4
Nevertheless
for
David’s
sake
did
Jehovah
his
God
give
him
a
lamp
in
Jerusalem,
to
set
up
his
son
after
him,
and
to
establish
Jerusalem;
5 15:5
because
David
did
that
which
was
right
in
the
eyes
of
Jehovah,
and
turned
not
aside
from
anything
that
he
commanded
him
all
the
days
of
his
life,
save
only
in
the
matter
of
Uriah
the
Hittite.
6 15:6
Now
there
was
war
between
Rehoboam
and
Jeroboam
all
the
days
of
his
life.
7 15:7
And
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Abijam,
and
all
that
he
did,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Judah?
And
there
was
war
between
Abijam
and
Jeroboam.
8 15:8
And
Abijam
slept
with
his
fathers;
and
they
buried
him
in
the
city
of
David:
and
Asa
his
son
reigned
in
his
stead.
9 15:9
And
in
the
twentieth
year
of
Jeroboam
king
of
Israel
began
Asa
to
reign
over
Judah.
10 15:10
And
forty
and
one
years
reigned
he
in
Jerusalem:
and
his
mother’s
name
was
Maacah
the
daughter
of
Abishalom.
11 15:11
And
Asa
did
that
which
was
right
in
the
eyes
of
Jehovah,
as
did
David
his
father.
12 15:12
And
he
put
away
the
sodomites
out
of
the
land,
and
removed
all
the
idols
that
his
fathers
had
made.
13 15:13
And
also
Maacah
his
mother
he
removed
from
being
queen,
because
she
had
made
an
abominable
image
for
an
Asherah;
and
Asa
cut
down
her
image,
and
burnt
it
at
the
brook
Kidron.
14 15:14
But
the
high
places
were
not
taken
away:
nevertheless
the
heart
of
Asa
was
perfect
with
Jehovah
all
his
days.
15 15:15
And
he
brought
into
the
house
of
Jehovah
the
things
that
his
father
had
dedicated,
and
the
things
that
himself
had
dedicated,
silver,
and
gold,
and
vessels.
16 15:16
And
there
was
war
between
Asa
and
Baasha
king
of
Israel
all
their
days.
17 15:17
And
Baasha
king
of
Israel
went
up
against
Judah,
and
built
Ramah,
that
he
might
not
suffer
any
one
to
go
out
or
come
in
to
Asa
king
of
Judah.
18 15:18
Then
Asa
took
all
the
silver
and
the
gold
that
were
left
in
the
treasures
of
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
the
treasures
of
the
king’s
house,
and
delivered
them
into
the
hand
of
his
servants;
and
king
Asa
sent
them
to
Ben-hadad,
the
son
of
Tabrimmon,
the
son
of
Hezion,
king
of
Syria,
that
dwelt
at
Damascus,
saying,
19 15:19
There
is
a
league
between
me
and
thee,
between
my
father
and
thy
father:
behold,
I
have
sent
unto
thee
a
present
of
silver
and
gold;
go,
break
thy
league
with
Baasha
king
of
Israel,
that
he
may
depart
from
me.
20 15:20
And
Ben-hadad
hearkened
unto
king
Asa,
and
sent
the
captains
of
his
armies
against
the
cities
of
Israel,
and
smote
Ijon,
and
Dan,
and
Abel-beth-maacah,
and
all
Chinneroth,
with
all
the
land
of
Naphtali.
21 15:21
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Baasha
heard
thereof,
that
he
left
off
building
Ramah,
and
dwelt
in
Tirzah.
22 15:22
Then
king
Asa
made
a
proclamation
unto
all
Judah;
none
was
exempted:
and
they
carried
away
the
stones
of
Ramah,
and
the
timber
thereof,
wherewith
Baasha
had
builded;
and
king
Asa
built
therewith
Geba
of
Benjamin,
and
Mizpah.
23 15:23
Now
the
rest
of
all
the
acts
of
Asa,
and
all
his
might,
and
all
that
he
did,
and
the
cities
which
he
built,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Judah?
But
in
the
time
of
his
old
age
he
was
diseased
in
his
feet.
24 15:24
And
Asa
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
was
buried
with
his
fathers
in
the
city
of
David
his
father;
and
Jehoshaphat
his
son
reigned
in
his
stead.
25 15:25
And
Nadab
the
son
of
Jeroboam
began
to
reign
over
Israel
in
the
second
year
of
Asa
king
of
Judah;
and
he
reigned
over
Israel
two
years.
26 15:26
And
he
did
that
which
was
evil
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah,
and
walked
in
the
way
of
his
father,
and
in
his
sin
wherewith
he
made
Israel
to
sin.
27 15:27
And
Baasha
the
son
of
Ahijah,
of
the
house
of
Issachar,
conspired
against
him;
and
Baasha
smote
him
at
Gibbethon,
which
belonged
to
the
Philistines;
for
Nadab
and
all
Israel
were
laying
siege
to
Gibbethon.
28 15:28
Even
in
the
third
year
of
Asa
king
of
Judah
did
Baasha
slay
him,
and
reigned
in
his
stead.
29 15:29
And
it
came
to
pass
that,
as
soon
as
he
was
king,
he
smote
all
the
house
of
Jeroboam:
he
left
not
to
Jeroboam
any
that
breathed,
until
he
had
destroyed
him;
according
unto
the
saying
of
Jehovah,
which
he
spake
by
his
servant
Ahijah
the
Shilonite;
30 15:30
for
the
sins
of
Jeroboam
which
he
sinned,
and
wherewith
he
made
Israel
to
sin,
because
of
his
provocation
wherewith
he
provoked
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
to
anger.
31 15:31
Now
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Nadab,
and
all
that
he
did,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Israel?
32 15:32
And
there
was
war
between
Asa
and
Baasha
king
of
Israel
all
their
days.
33 15:33
In
the
third
year
of
Asa
king
of
Judah
began
Baasha
the
son
of
Ahijah
to
reign
over
all
Israel
in
Tirzah,
and
reigned
twenty
and
four
years.
34 15:34
And
he
did
that
which
was
evil
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah,
and
walked
in
the
way
of
Jeroboam,
and
in
his
sin
wherewith
he
made
Israel
to
sin.
161 16:1
And
the
word
of
Jehovah
came
to
Jehu
the
son
of
Hanani
against
Baasha,
saying,
2 16:2
Forasmuch
as
I
exalted
thee
out
of
the
dust,
and
made
thee
prince
over
my
people
Israel,
and
thou
hast
walked
in
the
way
of
Jeroboam,
and
hast
made
my
people
Israel
to
sin,
to
provoke
me
to
anger
with
their
sins;
3 16:3
behold,
I
will
utterly
sweep
away
Baasha
and
his
house;
and
I
will
make
thy
house
like
the
house
of
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat.
4 16:4
Him
that
dieth
of
Baasha
in
the
city
shall
the
dogs
eat;
and
him
that
dieth
of
his
in
the
field
shall
the
birds
of
the
heavens
eat.
5 16:5
Now
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Baasha,
and
what
he
did,
and
his
might,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Israel?
6 16:6
And
Baasha
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
was
buried
in
Tirzah;
and
Elah
his
son
reigned
in
his
stead.
7 16:7
And
moreover
by
the
prophet
Jehu
the
son
of
Hanani
came
the
word
of
Jehovah
against
Baasha,
and
against
his
house,
both
because
of
all
the
evil
that
he
did
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah,
to
provoke
him
to
anger
with
the
work
of
his
hands,
in
being
like
the
house
of
Jeroboam,
and
because
he
smote
him.
8 16:8
In
the
twenty
and
sixth
year
of
Asa
king
of
Judah
began
Elah
the
son
of
Baasha
to
reign
over
Israel
in
Tirzah,
and
reigned
two
years.
9 16:9
And
his
servant
Zimri,
captain
of
half
his
chariots,
conspired
against
him.
Now
he
was
in
Tirzah,
drinking
himself
drunk
in
the
house
of
Arza,
who
was
over
the
household
in
Tirzah:
10 16:10
and
Zimri
went
in
and
smote
him,
and
killed
him,
in
the
twenty
and
seventh
year
of
Asa
king
of
Judah,
and
reigned
in
his
stead.
11 16:11
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
he
began
to
reign,
as
soon
as
he
sat
on
his
throne,
that
he
smote
all
the
house
of
Baasha:
he
left
him
not
a
single man-child,
neither
of
his
kinsfolks,
nor
of
his
friends.
12 16:12
Thus
did
Zimri
destroy
all
the
house
of
Baasha,
according
to
the
word
of
Jehovah,
which
he
spake
against
Baasha
by
Jehu
the
prophet,
13 16:13
for
all
the
sins
of
Baasha,
and
the
sins
of
Elah
his
son,
which
they
sinned,
and
wherewith
they
made
Israel
to
sin,
to
provoke
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
to
anger
with
their
vanities.
14 16:14
Now
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Elah,
and
all
that
he
did,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Israel?
15 16:15
In
the
twenty
and
seventh
year
of
Asa
king
of
Judah
did
Zimri
reign
seven
days
in
Tirzah.
Now
the
people
were
encamped
against
Gibbethon,
which
belonged
to
the
Philistines.
16 16:16
And
the
people
that
were
encamped
heard
say,
Zimri
hath
conspired,
and
hath
also
smitten
the
king:
wherefore
all
Israel
made
Omri,
the
captain
of
the
host,
king
over
Israel
that
day
in
the
camp.
17 16:17
And
Omri
went
up
from
Gibbethon,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
and
they
besieged
Tirzah.
18 16:18
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Zimri
saw
that
the
city
was
taken,
that
he
went
into
the
castle
of
the
king’s
house,
and
burnt
the
king’s
house
over
him
with
fire,
and
died,
19 16:19
for
his
sins
which
he
sinned
in
doing
that
which
was
evil
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah,
in
walking
in
the
way
of
Jeroboam,
and
in
his
sin
which
he
did,
to
make
Israel
to
sin.
20 16:20
Now
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Zimri,
and
his
treason
that
he
wrought,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Israel?
21 16:21
Then
were
the
people
of
Israel
divided
into
two
parts:
half
of
the
people
followed
Tibni
the
son
of
Ginath,
to
make
him
king;
and
half
followed
Omri.
22 16:22
But
the
people
that
followed
Omri
prevailed
against
the
people
that
followed
Tibni
the
son
of
Ginath:
so
Tibni
died,
and
Omri
reigned.
23 16:23
In
the
thirty
and
first
year
of
Asa
king
of
Judah
began
Omri
to
reign
over
Israel,
and
reigned
twelve
years:
six
years
reigned
he
in
Tirzah.
24 16:24
And
he
bought
the
hill
Samaria
of
Shemer
for
two
talents
of
silver;
and
he
built
on
the
hill,
and
called
the
name
of
the
city
which
he
built,
after
the
name
of
Shemer,
the
owner
of
the
hill,
Samaria.
25 16:25
And
Omri
did
that
which
was
evil
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah,
and
dealt
wickedly
above
all
that
were
before
him.
26 16:26
For
he
walked
in
all
the
way
of
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat,
and
in
his
sins
wherewith
he
made
Israel
to
sin,
to
provoke
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
to
anger
with
their
vanities.
27 16:27
Now
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Omri
which
he
did,
and
his
might
that
he
showed,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Israel?
28 16:28
So
Omri
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
was
buried
in
Samaria;
and
Ahab
his
son
reigned
in
his
stead.
29 16:29
And
in
the
thirty
and
eighth
year
of
Asa
king
of
Judah
began
Ahab
the
son
of
Omri
to
reign
over
Israel:
and
Ahab
the
son
of
Omri
reigned
over
Israel
in
Samaria
twenty
and
two
years.
30 16:30
And
Ahab
the
son
of
Omri
did
that
which
was
evil
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah
above
all
that
were
before
him.
31 16:31
And
it
came
to
pass,
as
if
it
had
been
a
light
thing
for
him
to
walk
in
the
sins
of
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat,
that
he
took
to
wife
Jezebel
the
daughter
of
Ethbaal
king
of
the
Sidonians,
and
went
and
served
Baal,
and
worshipped
him.
32 16:32
And
he
reared
up
an
altar
for
Baal
in
the
house
of
Baal,
which
he
had
built
in
Samaria.
33 16:33
And
Ahab
made
the
Asherah;
and
Ahab
did
yet
more
to
provoke
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
to
anger
than
all
the
kings
of
Israel
that
were
before
him.
34 16:34
In
his
days
did
Hiel
the
Beth-elite
build
Jericho:
he
laid
the
foundation
thereof
with
the
loss
of
Abiram
his first-born,
and
set
up
the
gates
thereof
with
the
loss
of
his
youngest
son
Segub,
according
to
the
word
of
Jehovah,
which
he
spake
by
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun.
171 17:1
And
Elijah
the
Tishbite,
who
was
of
the
sojourners
of
Gilead,
said
unto
Ahab,
As
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
liveth,
before
whom
I
stand,
there
shall
not
be
dew
nor
rain
these
years,
but
according
to
my
word.
2 17:2
And
the
word
of
Jehovah
came
unto
him,
saying,
3 17:3
Get
thee
hence,
and
turn
thee
eastward,
and
hide
thyself
by
the
brook
Cherith,
that
is
before
the
Jordan.
4 17:4
And
it
shall
be,
that
thou shalt
drink
of
the
brook;
and
I
have
commanded
the
ravens
to
feed
thee
there.
5 17:5
So
he
went
and
did
according
unto
the
word
of
Jehovah;
for
he
went
and
dwelt
by
the
brook
Cherith,
that
is
before
the
Jordan.
6 17:6
And
the
ravens
brought
him
bread
and
flesh
in
the
morning,
and
bread
and
flesh
in
the
evening;
and
he
drank
of
the
brook.
7 17:7
And
it
came
to
pass
after
a
while,
that
the
brook
dried
up,
because
there
was
no
rain
in
the
land.
8 17:8
And
the
word
of
Jehovah
came
unto
him,
saying,
9 17:9
Arise,
get
thee
to
Zarephath,
which belongeth
to
Sidon,
and
dwell
there:
behold,
I
have
commanded
a
widow
there
to
sustain
thee.
10 17:10
So
he
arose
and
went
to
Zarephath;
and
when
he
came
to
the
gate
of
the
city,
behold,
a
widow
was
there
gathering
sticks:
and
he
called
to
her,
and
said,
Fetch
me,
I
pray
thee,
a
little
water
in
a
vessel,
that
I
may
drink.
11 17:11
And
as
she
was
going
to
fetch
it,
he
called
to
her,
and
said,
Bring
me,
I
pray
thee,
a
morsel
of
bread
in
thy
hand.
12 17:12
And
she
said,
As
Jehovah
thy
God
liveth,
I
have
not
a
cake,
but
a
handful
of
meal
in
the
jar,
and
a
little
oil
in
the
cruse:
and,
behold,
I
am
gathering
two
sticks,
that
I
may
go
in
and
dress
it
for
me
and
my
son,
that
we
may
eat
it,
and
die.
13 17:13
And
Elijah
said
unto
her,
Fear
not;
go
and
do
as
thou
hast
said;
but
make
me
thereof
a
little
cake
first,
and
bring
it
forth
unto
me,
and
afterward
make
for
thee
and
for
thy
son.
14 17:14
For
thus
saith
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
The
jar
of
meal
shall
not
waste,
neither
shall
the
cruse
of
oil
fail,
until
the
day
that
Jehovah
sendeth
rain
upon
the
earth.
15 17:15
And
she
went
and
did
according
to
the
saying
of
Elijah:
and
she,
and
he,
and
her
house,
did
eat
many
days.
16 17:16
The
jar
of
meal
wasted
not,
neither
did
the
cruse
of
oil
fail,
according
to
the
word
of
Jehovah,
which
he
spake
by
Elijah.
17 17:17
And
it
came
to
pass
after
these
things,
that
the
son
of
the
woman,
the
mistress
of
the
house,
fell
sick;
and
his
sickness
was
so
sore,
that
there
was
no
breath
left
in
him.
18 17:18
And
she
said
unto
Elijah,
What
have
I
to
do
with
thee,
O
thou
man
of
God?
thou
art
come
unto
me
to
bring
my
sin
to
remembrance,
and
to
slay
my
son!
19 17:19
And
he
said
unto
her,
Give
me
thy
son.
And
he
took
him
out
of
her
bosom,
and
carried
him
up
into
the
chamber,
where
he
abode,
and
laid
him
upon
his
own
bed.
20 17:20
And
he
cried
unto
Jehovah,
and
said,
O
Jehovah
my
God,
hast
thou
also
brought
evil
upon
the
widow
with
whom
I
sojourn,
by
slaying
her
son?
21 17:21
And
he
stretched
himself
upon
the
child
three
times,
and
cried
unto
Jehovah,
and
said,
O
Jehovah
my
God,
I
pray
thee,
let
this
child’s
soul
come
into
him
again.
22 17:22
And
Jehovah
hearkened
unto
the
voice
of
Elijah;
and
the
soul
of
the
child
came
into
him
again,
and
he
revived.
23 17:23
And
Elijah
took
the
child,
and
brought
him
down
out
of
the
chamber
into
the
house,
and
delivered
him
unto
his
mother;
and
Elijah
said,
See,
thy
son
liveth.
24 17:24
And
the
woman
said
to
Elijah,
Now
I
know
that
thou
art
a
man
of
God,
and
that
the
word
of
Jehovah
in
thy
mouth
is
truth.
181 18:1
And
it
came
to
pass
after
many
days,
that
the
word
of
Jehovah
came
to
Elijah,
in
the
third
year,
saying,
Go,
show
thyself
unto
Ahab;
and
I
will
send
rain
upon
the
earth.
2 18:2
And
Elijah
went
to
show
himself
unto
Ahab.
And
the
famine
was
sore
in
Samaria.
3 18:3
And
Ahab
called
Obadiah,
who
was
over
the
household. (Now
Obadiah
feared
Jehovah
greatly:
4 18:4
for
it
was
so,
when
Jezebel
cut
off
the
prophets
of
Jehovah,
that
Obadiah
took
a
hundred
prophets,
and
hid
them
by
fifty
in
a
cave,
and
fed
them
with
bread
and
water.)
5 18:5
And
Ahab
said
unto
Obadiah,
Go
through
the
land,
unto
all
the
fountains
of
water,
and
unto
all
the
brooks:
peradventure
we
may
find
grass
and
save
the
horses
and
mules
alive,
that
we
lose
not
all
the
beasts.
6 18:6
So
they
divided
the
land
between
them
to
pass
throughout
it:
Ahab
went
one
way
by
himself,
and
Obadiah
went
another
way
by
himself.
7 18:7
And
as
Obadiah
was
in
the
way,
behold,
Elijah
met
him:
and
he
knew
him,
and
fell
on
his
face,
and
said,
Is
it
thou,
my
lord
Elijah?
8 18:8
And
he
answered
him,
It
is
I:
go,
tell
thy
lord,
Behold,
Elijah
is
here.
9 18:9
And
he
said,
Wherein
have
I
sinned,
that
thou
wouldest
deliver
thy
servant
into
the
hand
of
Ahab,
to
slay
me?
10 18:10
As
Jehovah
thy
God
liveth,
there
is
no
nation
or
kingdom,
whither
my
lord
hath
not
sent
to
seek
thee:
and
when
they
said,
He
is
not
here,
he
took
an
oath
of
the
kingdom
and
nation,
that
they
found
thee
not.
11 18:11
And
now
thou
sayest,
Go,
tell
thy
lord,
Behold,
Elijah
is
here.
12 18:12
And
it
will
come
to
pass,
as
soon
as
I
am
gone
from
thee,
that
the
Spirit
of
Jehovah
will
carry
thee
whither
I
know
not;
and
so
when
I
come
and
tell
Ahab,
and
he
cannot
find
thee,
he
will
slay
me:
but
I
thy
servant
fear
Jehovah
from
my
youth.
13 18:13
Was
it
not
told
my
lord
what
I
did
when
Jezebel
slew
the
prophets
of
Jehovah,
how
I
hid
a
hundred
men
of Jehovah’s
prophets
by
fifty
in
a
cave,
and
fed
them
with
bread
and
water?
14 18:14
And
now
thou
sayest,
Go,
tell
thy
lord,
Behold,
Elijah
is
here;
and
he
will
slay
me.
15 18:15
And
Elijah
said,
As
Jehovah
of
hosts
liveth,
before
whom
I
stand,
I
will
surely
show
myself
unto
him to-day.
16 18:16
So
Obadiah
went
to
meet
Ahab,
and
told
him;
and
Ahab
went
to
meet
Elijah.
17 18:17
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Ahab
saw
Elijah,
that
Ahab
said
unto
him,
Is
it
thou,
thou
troubler
of
Israel?
18 18:18
And
he
answered,
I
have
not
troubled
Israel;
but
thou,
and
thy
father’s
house,
in
that
ye
have
forsaken
the
commandments
of
Jehovah,
and
thou
hast
followed
the
Baalim.
19 18:19
Now
therefore
send,
and
gather
to
me
all
Israel
unto
mount
Carmel,
and
the
prophets
of
Baal
four
hundred
and
fifty,
and
the
prophets
of
the
Asherah
four
hundred,
that
eat
at
Jezebel’s
table.
20 18:20
So
Ahab
sent
unto
all
the
children
of
Israel,
and
gathered
the
prophets
together
unto
mount
Carmel.
21 18:21
And
Elijah
came
near
unto
all
the
people,
and
said,
How
long
go
ye
limping
between
the
two
sides?
if
Jehovah
be
God,
follow
him;
but
if
Baal,
then
follow
him.
And
the
people
answered
him
not
a
word.
22 18:22
Then
said
Elijah
unto
the
people,
I,
even
I
only,
am
left
a
prophet
of
Jehovah;
but
Baal’s
prophets
are
four
hundred
and
fifty
men.
23 18:23
Let
them
therefore
give
us
two
bullocks;
and
let
them
choose
one
bullock
for
themselves,
and
cut
it
in
pieces,
and
lay
it
on
the
wood,
and
put
no
fire
under;
and
I
will
dress
the
other
bullock,
and
lay
it
on
the
wood,
and
put
no
fire
under.
24 18:24
And
call
ye
on
the
name
of
your
god,
and
I
will
call
on
the
name
of
Jehovah;
and
the
God
that
answereth
by
fire,
let
him
be
God.
And
all
the
people
answered
and
said,
It
is
well
spoken.
25 18:25
And
Elijah
said
unto
the
prophets
of
Baal,
Choose
you
one
bullock
for
yourselves,
and
dress
it
first;
for
ye
are
many;
and
call
on
the
name
of
your
god,
but
put
no
fire
under.
26 18:26
And
they
took
the
bullock
which
was
given
them,
and
they
dressed
it,
and
called
on
the
name
of
Baal
from
morning
even
until
noon,
saying,
O
Baal,
hear
us.
But
there
was
no
voice,
nor
any
that
answered.
And
they
leaped
about
the
altar
which
was
made.
27 18:27
And
it
came
to
pass
at
noon,
that
Elijah
mocked
them,
and
said,
Cry
aloud;
for
he
is
a
god:
either
he
is
musing,
or
he
is
gone
aside,
or
he
is
on
a
journey,
or
peradventure
he
sleepeth
and
must
be
awaked.
28 18:28
And
they
cried
aloud,
and
cut
themselves
after
their
manner
with
knives
and
lances,
till
the
blood
gushed
out
upon
them.
29 18:29
And
it
was
so,
when
midday
was
past,
that
they
prophesied
until
the
time
of
the
offering
of
the
evening
oblation;
but
there
was
neither
voice,
nor
any
to
answer,
nor
any
that
regarded.
30 18:30
And
Elijah
said
unto
all
the
people,
Come
near
unto
me;
and
all
the
people
came
near
unto
him.
And
he
repaired
the
altar
of
Jehovah
that
was
thrown
down.
31 18:31
And
Elijah
took
twelve
stones,
according
to
the
number
of
the
tribes
of
the
sons
of
Jacob,
unto
whom
the
word
of
Jehovah
came,
saying,
Israel
shall
be
thy
name.
32 18:32
And
with
the
stones
he
built
an
altar
in
the
name
of
Jehovah;
and
he
made
a
trench
about
the
altar,
as
great
as
would
contain
two
measures
of
seed.
33 18:33
And
he
put
the
wood
in
order,
and
cut
the
bullock
in
pieces,
and
laid
it
on
the
wood.
And
he
said,
Fill
four
jars
with
water,
and
pour
it
on
the burnt-offering,
and
on
the
wood.
34 18:34
And
he
said,
Do
it
the
second
time;
and
they
did
it
the
second
time.
And
he
said,
Do
it
the
third
time;
and
they
did
it
the
third
time.
35 18:35
And
the
water
ran
round
about
the
altar;
and
he
filled
the
trench
also
with
water.
36 18:36
And
it
came
to
pass
at
the
time
of
the
offering
of
the
evening
oblation,
that
Elijah
the
prophet
came
near,
and
said,
O
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Abraham,
of
Isaac,
and
of
Israel,
let
it
be
known
this
day
that
thou
art
God
in
Israel,
and
that
I
am
thy
servant,
and
that
I
have
done
all
these
things
at
thy
word.
37 18:37
Hear
me,
O
Jehovah,
hear
me,
that
this
people
may
know
that
thou,
Jehovah,
art
God,
and
that
thou
hast
turned
their
heart
back
again.
38 18:38
Then
the
fire
of
Jehovah
fell,
and
consumed
the burnt-offering,
and
the
wood,
and
the
stones,
and
the
dust,
and
licked
up
the
water
that
was
in
the
trench.
39 18:39
And
when
all
the
people
saw
it,
they
fell
on
their
faces:
and
they
said,
Jehovah,
he
is
God;
Jehovah,
he
is
God.
40 18:40
And
Elijah
said
unto
them,
Take
the
prophets
of
Baal;
let
not
one
of
them
escape.
And
they
took
them;
and
Elijah
brought
them
down
to
the
brook
Kishon,
and
slew
them
there.
41 18:41
And
Elijah
said
unto
Ahab,
Get
thee
up,
eat
and
drink;
for
there
is
the
sound
of
abundance
of
rain.
42 18:42
So
Ahab
went
up
to
eat
and
to
drink.
And
Elijah
went
up
to
the
top
of
Carmel;
and
he
bowed
himself
down
upon
the
earth,
and
put
his
face
between
his
knees.
43 18:43
And
he
said
to
his
servant,
Go
up
now,
look
toward
the
sea.
And
he
went
up,
and
looked,
and
said,
There
is
nothing.
And
he
said,
Go
again
seven
times.
44 18:44
And
it
came
to
pass
at
the
seventh
time,
that
he
said,
Behold,
there
ariseth
a
cloud
out
of
the
sea,
as
small
as
a
man’s
hand.
And
he
said,
Go
up,
say
unto
Ahab,
Make
ready
thy
chariot,
and
get
thee
down,
that
the
rain
stop
thee
not.
45 18:45
And
it
came
to
pass
in
a
little
while,
that
the
heavens
grew
black
with
clouds
and
wind,
and
there
was
a
great
rain.
And
Ahab
rode,
and
went
to
Jezreel:
46 18:46
and
the
hand
of
Jehovah
was
on
Elijah;
and
he
girded
up
his
loins,
and
ran
before
Ahab
to
the
entrance
of
Jezreel.
191 19:1
And
Ahab
told
Jezebel
all
that
Elijah
had
done,
and
withal
how
he
had
slain
all
the
prophets
with
the
sword.
2 19:2
Then
Jezebel
sent
a
messenger
unto
Elijah,
saying,
So
let
the
gods
do
to
me,
and
more
also,
if
I
make
not
thy
life
as
the
life
of
one
of
them
by to-morrow
about
this
time.
3 19:3
And
when
he
saw
that,
he
arose,
and
went
for
his
life,
and
came
to
Beer-sheba,
which belongeth
to
Judah,
and
left
his
servant
there.
4 19:4
But
he
himself
went
a
day’s
journey
into
the
wilderness,
and
came
and
sat
down
under
a juniper-tree:
and
he
requested
for
himself
that
he
might
die,
and
said,
It
is
enough;
now,
O
Jehovah,
take
away
my
life;
for
I
am
not
better
than
my
fathers.
5 19:5
And
he
lay
down
and
slept
under
a juniper-tree;
and,
behold,
an
angel
touched
him,
and
said
unto
him,
Arise
and
eat.
6 19:6
And
he
looked,
and,
behold,
there
was
at
his
head
a
cake
baken
on
the
coals,
and
a
cruse
of
water.
And
he
did
eat
and
drink,
and
laid
him
down
again.
7 19:7
And
the
angel
of
Jehovah
came
again
the
second
time,
and
touched
him,
and
said,
Arise
and
eat,
because
the
journey
is
too
great
for
thee.
8 19:8
And
he
arose,
and
did
eat
and
drink,
and
went
in
the
strength
of
that
food
forty
days
and
forty
nights
unto
Horeb
the
mount
of
God.
9 19:9
And
he
came
thither
unto
a
cave,
and
lodged
there;
and,
behold,
the
word
of
Jehovah
came
to
him,
and
he
said
unto
him,
What
doest
thou
here,
Elijah?
10 19:10
And
he
said,
I
have
been
very
jealous
for
Jehovah,
the
God
of
hosts;
for
the
children
of
Israel
have
forsaken
thy
covenant,
thrown
down
thine
altars,
and
slain
thy
prophets
with
the
sword:
and
I,
even
I
only,
am
left;
and
they
seek
my
life,
to
take
it
away.
11 19:11
And
he
said,
Go
forth,
and
stand
upon
the
mount
before
Jehovah.
And,
behold,
Jehovah
passed
by,
and
a
great
and
strong
wind
rent
the
mountains,
and
brake
in
pieces
the
rocks
before
Jehovah;
but
Jehovah
was
not
in
the
wind:
and
after
the
wind
an
earthquake;
but
Jehovah
was
not
in
the
earthquake:
12 19:12
and
after
the
earthquake
a
fire;
but
Jehovah
was
not
in
the
fire:
and
after
the
fire
a
still
small
voice.
13 19:13
And
it
was
so,
when
Elijah
heard
it,
that
he
wrapped
his
face
in
his
mantle,
and
went
out,
and
stood
in
the
entrance
of
the
cave.
And,
behold,
there
came
a
voice
unto
him,
and
said,
What
doest
thou
here,
Elijah?
14 19:14
And
he
said,
I
have
been
very
jealous
for
Jehovah,
the
God
of
hosts;
for
the
children
of
Israel
have
forsaken
thy
covenant,
thrown
down
thine
altars,
and
slain
thy
prophets
with
the
sword;
and
I,
even
I
only,
am
left;
and
they
seek
my
life,
to
take
it
away.
15 19:15
And
Jehovah
said
unto
him,
Go,
return
on
thy
way
to
the
wilderness
of
Damascus:
and
when
thou
comest,
thou shalt
anoint
Hazael
to
be
king
over
Syria;
16 19:16
and
Jehu
the
son
of
Nimshi shalt
thou
anoint
to
be
king
over
Israel;
and
Elisha
the
son
of
Shaphat
of
Abel-meholah shalt
thou
anoint
to
be
prophet
in
thy
room.
17 19:17
And
it
shall
come
to
pass,
that
him
that
escapeth
from
the
sword
of
Hazael
shall
Jehu
slay;
and
him
that
escapeth
from
the
sword
of
Jehu
shall
Elisha
slay.
18 19:18
Yet
will
I
leave
me
seven
thousand
in
Israel,
all
the
knees
which
have
not
bowed
unto
Baal,
and
every
mouth
which
hath
not
kissed
him.
19 19:19
So
he
departed
thence,
and
found
Elisha
the
son
of
Shaphat,
who
was
plowing,
with
twelve
yoke
of
oxen
before
him,
and
he
with
the
twelfth:
and
Elijah
passed
over
unto
him,
and
cast
his
mantle
upon
him.
20 19:20
And
he
left
the
oxen,
and
ran
after
Elijah,
and
said,
Let
me,
I
pray
thee,
kiss
my
father
and
my
mother,
and
then
I
will
follow
thee.
And
he
said
unto
him,
Go
back
again;
for
what
have
I
done
to
thee?
21 19:21
And
he
returned
from
following
him,
and
took
the
yoke
of
oxen,
and
slew
them,
and
boiled
their
flesh
with
the
instruments
of
the
oxen,
and
gave
unto
the
people,
and
they
did
eat.
Then
he
arose,
and
went
after
Elijah,
and
ministered
unto
him.
201 20:1
And
Ben-hadad
the
king
of
Syria
gathered
all
his
host
together;
and
there
were
thirty
and
two
kings
with
him,
and
horses
and
chariots:
and
he
went
up
and
besieged
Samaria,
and
fought
against
it.
2 20:2
And
he
sent
messengers
to
Ahab
king
of
Israel,
into
the
city,
and
said
unto
him,
Thus
saith
Ben-hadad,
3 20:3
Thy
silver
and
thy
gold
is
mine;
thy
wives
also
and
thy
children,
even
the
goodliest,
are
mine.
4 20:4
And
the
king
of
Israel
answered
and
said,
It
is
according
to
thy
saying,
my
lord,
O
king;
I
am
thine,
and
all
that
I
have.
5 20:5
And
the
messengers
came
again,
and
said,
Thus
speaketh
Ben-hadad,
saying,
I
sent
indeed
unto
thee,
saying,
Thou shalt
deliver
me
thy
silver,
and
thy
gold,
and
thy
wives,
and
thy
children;
6 20:6
but
I
will
send
my
servants
unto
thee to-morrow
about
this
time,
and
they
shall
search
thy
house,
and
the
houses
of
thy
servants;
and
it
shall
be,
that
whatsoever
is
pleasant
in
thine
eyes,
they
shall
put
it
in
their
hand,
and
take
it
away.
7 20:7
Then
the
king
of
Israel
called
all
the
elders
of
the
land,
and
said,
Mark,
I
pray
you,
and
see
how
this
man
seeketh
mischief:
for
he
sent
unto
me
for
my
wives,
and
for
my
children,
and
for
my
silver,
and
for
my
gold;
and
I
denied
him
not.
8 20:8
And
all
the
elders
and
all
the
people
said
unto
him,
Hearken
thou
not,
neither
consent.
9 20:9
Wherefore
he
said
unto
the
messengers
of
Ben-hadad,
Tell
my
lord
the
king,
All
that
thou
didst
send
for
to
thy
servant
at
the
first
I
will
do;
but
this
thing
I
may
not
do.
And
the
messengers
departed,
and
brought
him
word
again.
10 20:10
And
Ben-hadad
sent
unto
him,
and
said,
The
gods
do
so
unto
me,
and
more
also,
if
the
dust
of
Samaria
shall
suffice
for
handfuls
for
all
the
people
that
follow
me.
11 20:11
And
the
king
of
Israel
answered
and
said,
Tell
him,
Let
not
him
that
girdeth
on
his
armor
boast
himself
as
he
that
putteth
it
off.
12 20:12
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Ben-hadad
heard
this
message,
as
he
was
drinking,
he
and
the
kings,
in
the
pavilions,
that
he
said
unto
his
servants,
Set
yourselves
in
array.
And
they
set
themselves
in
array
against
the
city.
13 20:13
And,
behold,
a
prophet
came
near
unto
Ahab
king
of
Israel,
and
said,
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
Hast
thou
seen
all
this
great
multitude?
behold,
I
will
deliver
it
into
thy
hand
this
day;
and
thou shalt
know
that
I
am
Jehovah.
14 20:14
And
Ahab
said,
By
whom?
And
he
said,
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
By
the
young
men
of
the
princes
of
the
provinces.
Then
he
said,
Who
shall
begin
the
battle?
And
he
answered,
Thou.
15 20:15
Then
he
mustered
the
young
men
of
the
princes
of
the
provinces,
and
they
were
two
hundred
and
thirty-two:
and
after
them
he
mustered
all
the
people,
even
all
the
children
of
Israel,
being
seven
thousand.
16 20:16
And
they
went
out
at
noon.
But
Ben-hadad
was
drinking
himself
drunk
in
the
pavilions,
he
and
the
kings,
the
thirty
and
two
kings
that
helped
him.
17 20:17
And
the
young
men
of
the
princes
of
the
provinces
went
out
first;
and
Ben-hadad
sent
out,
and
they
told
him,
saying,
There
are
men
come
out
from
Samaria.
18 20:18
And
he
said,
Whether
they
are
come
out
for
peace,
take
them
alive;
or
whether
they
are
come
out
for
war,
take
them
alive.
19 20:19
So
these
went
out
of
the
city,
the
young
men
of
the
princes
of
the
provinces,
and
the
army
which
followed
them.
20 20:20
And
they
slew
every
one
his
man;
and
the
Syrians
fled,
and
Israel
pursued
them:
and
Ben-hadad
the
king
of
Syria
escaped
on
a
horse
with
horsemen.
21 20:21
And
the
king
of
Israel
went
out,
and
smote
the
horses
and
chariots,
and
slew
the
Syrians
with
a
great
slaughter.
22 20:22
And
the
prophet
came
near
to
the
king
of
Israel,
and
said
unto
him,
Go,
strengthen
thyself,
and
mark,
and
see
what
thou
doest;
for
at
the
return
of
the
year
the
king
of
Syria
will
come
up
against
thee.
23 20:23
And
the
servants
of
the
king
of
Syria
said
unto
him,
Their
god
is
a
god
of
the
hills;
therefore
they
were
stronger
than
we:
but
let
us
fight
against
them
in
the
plain,
and
surely
we
shall
be
stronger
than
they.
24 20:24
And
do
this
thing:
take
the
kings
away,
every
man
out
of
his
place,
and
put
captains
in
their
room;
25 20:25
and
number
thee
an
army,
like
the
army
that
thou
hast
lost,
horse
for
horse,
and
chariot
for
chariot;
and
we
will
fight
against
them
in
the
plain,
and
surely
we
shall
be
stronger
than
they.
And
he
hearkened
unto
their
voice,
and
did
so.
26 20:26
And
it
came
to
pass
at
the
return
of
the
year,
that
Ben-hadad
mustered
the
Syrians,
and
went
up
to
Aphek,
to
fight
against
Israel.
27 20:27
And
the
children
of
Israel
were
mustered,
and
were victualled,
and
went
against
them:
and
the
children
of
Israel
encamped
before
them
like
two
little
flocks
of
kids;
but
the
Syrians
filled
the
country.
28 20:28
And
a
man
of
God
came
near
and
spake
unto
the
king
of
Israel,
and
said,
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
Because
the
Syrians
have
said,
Jehovah
is
a
god
of
the
hills,
but
he
is
not
a
god
of
the
valleys;
therefore
will
I
deliver
all
this
great
multitude
into
thy
hand,
and
ye
shall
know
that
I
am
Jehovah.
29 20:29
And
they
encamped
one
over
against
the
other
seven
days.
And
so
it
was,
that
in
the
seventh
day
the
battle
was
joined;
and
the
children
of
Israel
slew
of
the
Syrians
a
hundred
thousand
footmen
in
one
day.
30 20:30
But
the
rest
fled
to
Aphek,
into
the
city;
and
the
wall
fell
upon
twenty
and
seven
thousand
men
that
were
left.
And
Ben-hadad
fled,
and
came
into
the
city,
into
an
inner
chamber.
31 20:31
And
his
servants
said
unto
him,
Behold
now,
we
have
heard
that
the
kings
of
the
house
of
Israel
are
merciful
kings:
let
us,
we
pray
thee,
put
sackcloth
on
our
loins,
and
ropes
upon
our
heads,
and
go
out
to
the
king
of
Israel:
peradventure
he
will
save
thy
life.
32 20:32
So
they
girded
sackcloth
on
their
loins,
and
put
ropes
on
their
heads,
and
came
to
the
king
of
Israel,
and
said,
Thy
servant
Ben-hadad
saith,
I
pray
thee,
let
me
live.
And
he
said,
Is
he
yet
alive?
he
is
my
brother.
33 20:33
Now
the
men
observed
diligently,
and
hasted
to
catch
whether
it
were
his
mind;
and
they
said,
Thy
brother
Ben-hadad.
Then
he
said,
Go
ye,
bring
him.
Then
Ben-hadad
came
forth
to
him;
and
he
caused
him
to
come
up
into
the
chariot.
34 20:34
And
Ben-hadad
said
unto
him,
The
cities
which
my
father
took
from
thy
father
I
will
restore;
and
thou shalt
make
streets
for
thee
in
Damascus,
as
my
father
made
in
Samaria.
And
I,
said
Ahab,
will
let
thee
go
with
this
covenant.
So
he
made
a
covenant
with
him,
and
let
him
go.
35 20:35
And
a
certain
man
of
the
sons
of
the
prophets
said
unto
his
fellow
by
the
word
of
Jehovah,
Smite
me,
I
pray
thee.
And
the
man
refused
to
smite
him.
36 20:36
Then
said
he
unto
him,
Because
thou
hast
not
obeyed
the
voice
of
Jehovah,
behold,
as
soon
as
thou
art
departed
from
me,
a
lion
shall
slay
thee.
And
as
soon
as
he
was
departed
from
him,
a
lion
found
him,
and
slew
him.
37 20:37
Then
he
found
another
man,
and
said,
Smite
me,
I
pray
thee.
And
the
man
smote
him,
smiting
and
wounding
him.
38 20:38
So
the
prophet
departed,
and
waited
for
the
king
by
the
way,
and
disguised
himself
with
his headband
over
his
eyes.
39 20:39
And
as
the
king
passed
by,
he
cried
unto
the
king;
and
he
said,
Thy
servant
went
out
into
the
midst
of
the
battle;
and,
behold,
a
man
turned
aside,
and
brought
a
man
unto
me,
and
said,
Keep
this
man:
if
by
any
means
he
be
missing,
then
shall
thy
life
be
for
his
life,
or
else
thou shalt
pay
a
talent
of
silver.
40 20:40
And
as
thy
servant
was
busy
here
and
there,
he
was
gone.
And
the
king
of
Israel
said
unto
him,
So
shall
thy
judgment
be;
thyself
hast
decided
it.
41 20:41
And
he
hasted,
and
took
the headband
away
from
his
eyes;
and
the
king
of
Israel
discerned
him
that
he
was
of
the
prophets.
42 20:42
And
he
said
unto
him,
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
Because
thou
hast
let
go
out
of
thy
hand
the
man
whom
I
had
devoted
to
destruction,
therefore
thy
life
shall
go
for
his
life,
and
thy
people
for
his
people.
43 20:43
And
the
king
of
Israel
went
to
his
house
heavy
and
displeased,
and
came
to
Samaria.
211 21:1
And
it
came
to
pass
after
these
things,
that
Naboth
the
Jezreelite
had
a
vineyard,
which
was
in
Jezreel,
hard
by
the
palace
of
Ahab
king
of
Samaria.
2 21:2
And
Ahab
spake
unto
Naboth,
saying,
Give
me
thy
vineyard,
that
I
may
have
it
for
a
garden
of
herbs,
because
it
is
near
unto
my
house;
and
I
will
give
thee
for
it
a
better
vineyard
than
it:
or,
if
it
seem
good
to
thee,
I
will
give
thee
the
worth
of
it
in
money.
3 21:3
And
Naboth
said
to
Ahab,
Jehovah
forbid
it
me,
that
I
should
give
the
inheritance
of
my
fathers
unto
thee.
4 21:4
And
Ahab
came
into
his
house
heavy
and
displeased
because
of
the
word
which
Naboth
the
Jezreelite
had
spoken
to
him;
for
he
had
said,
I
will
not
give
thee
the
inheritance
of
my
fathers.
And
he
laid
him
down
upon
his
bed,
and
turned
away
his
face,
and
would
eat
no
bread.
5 21:5
But
Jezebel
his
wife
came
to
him,
and
said
unto
him,
Why
is
thy
spirit
so
sad,
that
thou
eatest
no
bread?
6 21:6
And
he
said
unto
her,
Because
I
spake
unto
Naboth
the
Jezreelite,
and
said
unto
him,
Give
me
thy
vineyard
for
money;
or
else,
if
it
please
thee,
I
will
give
thee
another
vineyard
for
it:
and
he
answered,
I
will
not
give
thee
my
vineyard.
7 21:7
And
Jezebel
his
wife
said
unto
him,
Dost
thou
now
govern
the
kingdom
of
Israel?
arise,
and
eat
bread,
and
let
thy
heart
be
merry:
I
will
give
thee
the
vineyard
of
Naboth
the
Jezreelite.
8 21:8
So
she
wrote
letters
in
Ahab’s
name,
and
sealed
them
with
his
seal,
and
sent
the
letters
unto
the
elders
and
to
the
nobles
that
were
in
his
city,
and
that
dwelt
with
Naboth.
9 21:9
And
she
wrote
in
the
letters,
saying,
Proclaim
a
fast,
and
set
Naboth
on
high
among
the
people:
10 21:10
and
set
two
men,
base
fellows,
before
him,
and
let
them
bear
witness
against
him,
saying,
Thou
didst
curse
God
and
the
king.
And
then
carry
him
out,
and
stone
him
to
death.
11 21:11
And
the
men
of
his
city,
even
the
elders
and
the
nobles
who
dwelt
in
his
city,
did
as
Jezebel
had
sent
unto
them,
according
as
it
was
written
in
the
letters
which
she
had
sent
unto
them.
12 21:12
They
proclaimed
a
fast,
and
set
Naboth
on
high
among
the
people.
13 21:13
And
the
two
men,
the
base
fellows,
came
in
and
sat
before
him:
and
the
base
fellows
bare
witness
against
him,
even
against
Naboth,
in
the
presence
of
the
people,
saying,
Naboth
did
curse
God
and
the
king.
Then
they
carried
him
forth
out
of
the
city,
and
stoned
him
to
death
with
stones.
14 21:14
Then
they
sent
to
Jezebel,
saying,
Naboth
is
stoned,
and
is
dead.
15 21:15
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Jezebel
heard
that
Naboth
was
stoned,
and
was
dead,
that
Jezebel
said
to
Ahab,
Arise,
take
possession
of
the
vineyard
of
Naboth
the
Jezreelite,
which
he
refused
to
give
thee
for
money;
for
Naboth
is
not
alive,
but
dead.
16 21:16
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Ahab
heard
that
Naboth
was
dead,
that
Ahab
rose
up
to
go
down
to
the
vineyard
of
Naboth
the
Jezreelite,
to
take
possession
of
it.
17 21:17
And
the
word
of
Jehovah
came
to
Elijah
the
Tishbite,
saying,
18 21:18
Arise,
go
down
to
meet
Ahab
king
of
Israel,
who
dwelleth
in
Samaria:
behold,
he
is
in
the
vineyard
of
Naboth,
whither
he
is
gone
down
to
take
possession
of
it.
19 21:19
And
thou shalt
speak
unto
him,
saying,
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
Hast
thou
killed,
and
also
taken
possession?
And
thou shalt
speak
unto
him,
saying,
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
In
the
place
where
dogs
licked
the
blood
of
Naboth
shall
dogs
lick
thy
blood,
even
thine.
20 21:20
And
Ahab
said
to
Elijah,
Hast
thou
found
me,
O
mine
enemy?
And
he
answered,
I
have
found
thee,
because
thou
hast
sold
thyself
to
do
that
which
is
evil
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah.
21 21:21
Behold,
I
will
bring
evil
upon
thee,
and
will
utterly
sweep
thee
away
and
will
cut
off
from
Ahab
every man-child,
and
him
that
is
shut
up
and
him
that
is
left
at
large
in
Israel:
22 21:22
and
I
will
make
thy
house
like
the
house
of
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat,
and
like
the
house
of
Baasha
the
son
of
Ahijah
for
the
provocation
wherewith
thou
hast
provoked
me
to
anger,
and
hast
made
Israel
to
sin.
23 21:23
And
of
Jezebel
also
spake
Jehovah,
saying,
The
dogs
shall
eat
Jezebel
by
the
rampart
of
Jezreel.
24 21:24
Him
that
dieth
of
Ahab
in
the
city
the
dogs
shall
eat;
and
him
that
dieth
in
the
field
shall
the
birds
of
the
heavens
eat.
25 21:25(But
there
was
none
like
unto
Ahab,
who
did
sell
himself
to
do
that
which
was
evil
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah,
whom
Jezebel
his
wife
stirred
up.
26 21:26
And
he
did
very
abominably
in
following
idols,
according
to
all
that
the
Amorites
did,
whom
Jehovah
cast
out
before
the
children
of
Israel.)
27 21:27
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Ahab
heard
those
words,
that
he
rent
his
clothes,
and
put
sackcloth
upon
his
flesh,
and
fasted,
and
lay
in
sackcloth,
and
went
softly.
28 21:28
And
the
word
of
Jehovah
came
to
Elijah
the
Tishbite,
saying,
29 21:29
Seest
thou
how
Ahab
humbleth
himself
before
me?
because
he
humbleth
himself
before
me,
I
will
not
bring
the
evil
in
his
days;
but
in
his
son’s
day
will
I
bring
the
evil
upon
his
house.
221 22:1
And
they
continued
three
years
without
war
between
Syria
and
Israel.
2 22:2
And
it
came
to
pass
in
the
third
year,
that
Jehoshaphat
the
king
of
Judah
came
down
to
the
king
of
Israel.
3 22:3
And
the
king
of
Israel
said
unto
his
servants,
Know
ye
that
Ramoth-gilead
is
ours,
and
we
are
still,
and
take
it
not
out
of
the
hand
of
the
king
of
Syria?
4 22:4
And
he
said
unto
Jehoshaphat,
Wilt
thou
go
with
me
to
battle
to
Ramoth-gilead?
And
Jehoshaphat
said
to
the
king
of
Israel,
I
am
as
thou
art,
my
people
as
thy
people,
my
horses
as
thy
horses.
5 22:5
And
Jehoshaphat
said
unto
the
king
of
Israel,
Inquire
first,
I
pray
thee,
for
the
word
of
Jehovah.
6 22:6
Then
the
king
of
Israel
gathered
the
prophets
together,
about
four
hundred
men,
and
said
unto
them,
Shall
I
go
against
Ramoth-gilead
to
battle,
or
shall
I
forbear?
And
they
said,
Go
up;
for
the
Lord
will
deliver
it
into
the
hand
of
the
king.
7 22:7
But
Jehoshaphat
said,
Is
there
not
here
a
prophet
of
Jehovah
besides,
that
we
may
inquire
of
him?
8 22:8
And
the
king
of
Israel
said
unto
Jehoshaphat,
There
is
yet
one
man
by
whom
we
may
inquire
of
Jehovah,
Micaiah
the
son
of
Imlah:
but
I
hate
him;
for
he
doth
not
prophesy
good
concerning
me,
but
evil.
And
Jehoshaphat
said,
Let
not
the
king
say
so.
9 22:9
Then
the
king
of
Israel
called
an
officer,
and
said,
Fetch
quickly
Micaiah
the
son
of
Imlah.
10 22:10
Now
the
king
of
Israel
and
Jehoshaphat
the
king
of
Judah
were
sitting
each
on
his
throne,
arrayed
in
their
robes,
in
an
open
place
at
the
entrance
of
the
gate
of
Samaria;
and
all
the
prophets
were
prophesying
before
them.
11 22:11
And
Zedekiah
the
son
of
Chenaanah
made
him
horns
of
iron,
and
said,
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
With
these shalt
thou
push
the
Syrians,
until
they
be
consumed.
12 22:12
And
all
the
prophets
prophesied
so,
saying,
Go
up
to
Ramoth-gilead,
and
prosper;
for
Jehovah
will
deliver
it
into
the
hand
of
the
king.
13 22:13
And
the
messenger
that
went
to
call
Micaiah
spake
unto
him,
saying,
Behold
now,
the
words
of
the
prophets
declare
good
unto
the
king
with
one
mouth:
let
thy
word,
I
pray
thee,
be
like
the
word
of
one
of
them,
and
speak
thou
good.
14 22:14
And
Micaiah
said,
As
Jehovah
liveth,
what
Jehovah
saith
unto
me,
that
will
I
speak.
15 22:15
And
when
he
was
come
to
the
king,
the
king
said
unto
him,
Micaiah,
shall
we
go
to
Ramoth-gilead
to
battle,
or
shall
we
forbear?
And
he
answered
him,
Go
up
and
prosper;
and
Jehovah
will
deliver
it
into
the
hand
of
the
king.
16 22:16
And
the
king
said
unto
him,
How
many
times
shall
I
adjure
thee
that
thou
speak
unto
me
nothing
but
the
truth
in
the
name
of
Jehovah?
17 22:17
And
he
said,
I
saw
all
Israel
scattered
upon
the
mountains,
as
sheep
that
have
no
shepherd:
and
Jehovah
said,
These
have
no
master;
let
them
return
every
man
to
his
house
in
peace.
18 22:18
And
the
king
of
Israel
said
to
Jehoshaphat,
Did
I
not
tell
thee
that
he
would
not
prophesy
good
concerning
me,
but
evil?
19 22:19
And
Micaiah
said,
Therefore
hear
thou
the
word
of
Jehovah:
I
saw
Jehovah
sitting
on
his
throne,
and
all
the
host
of
heaven
standing
by
him
on
his
right
hand
and
on
his
left.
20 22:20
And
Jehovah
said,
Who
shall
entice
Ahab,
that
he
may
go
up
and
fall
at
Ramoth-gilead?
And
one
said
on
this
manner;
and
another
said
on
that
manner.
21 22:21
And
there
came
forth
a
spirit,
and
stood
before
Jehovah,
and
said,
I
will
entice
him.
22 22:22
And
Jehovah
said
unto
him,
Wherewith?
And
he
said,
I
will
go
forth,
and
will
be
a
lying
spirit
in
the
mouth
of
all
his
prophets.
And
he
said,
Thou shalt
entice
him,
and shalt
prevail
also:
go
forth,
and
do
so.
23 22:23
Now
therefore,
behold,
Jehovah
hath
put
a
lying
spirit
in
the
mouth
of
all
these
thy
prophets;
and
Jehovah
hath
spoken
evil
concerning
thee.
24 22:24
Then
Zedekiah
the
son
of
Chenaanah
came
near,
and
smote
Micaiah
on
the
cheek,
and
said,
Which
way
went
the
Spirit
of
Jehovah
from
me
to
speak
unto
thee?
25 22:25
And
Micaiah
said,
Behold,
thou shalt
see
on
that
day,
when
thou shalt
go
into
an
inner
chamber
to
hide
thyself.
26 22:26
And
the
king
of
Israel
said,
Take
Micaiah,
and
carry
him
back
unto
Amon
the
governor
of
the
city,
and
to
Joash
the
king’s
son;
27 22:27
and
say,
Thus
saith
the
king,
Put
this
fellow
in
the
prison,
and
feed
him
with
bread
of
affliction
and
with
water
of
affliction,
until
I
come
in
peace.
28 22:28
And
Micaiah
said,
If
thou
return
at
all
in
peace,
Jehovah
hath
not
spoken
by
me.
And
he
said,
Hear,
ye
peoples,
all
of
you.
29 22:29
So
the
king
of
Israel
and
Jehoshaphat
the
king
of
Judah
went
up
to
Ramoth-gilead.
30 22:30
And
the
king
of
Israel
said
unto
Jehoshaphat,
I
will
disguise
myself,
and
go
into
the
battle;
but
put
thou
on
thy
robes.
And
the
king
of
Israel
disguised
himself,
and
went
into
the
battle.
31 22:31
Now
the
king
of
Syria
had
commanded
the
thirty
and
two
captains
of
his
chariots,
saying,
Fight
neither
with
small
nor
great,
save
only
with
the
king
of
Israel.
32 22:32
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
the
captains
of
the
chariots
saw
Jehoshaphat,
that
they
said,
Surely
it
is
the
king
of
Israel;
and
they
turned
aside
to
fight
against
him:
and
Jehoshaphat
cried
out.
33 22:33
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
the
captains
of
the
chariots
saw
that
it
was
not
the
king
of
Israel,
that
they
turned
back
from
pursuing
him.
34 22:34
And
a
certain
man
drew
his
bow
at
a
venture,
and
smote
the
king
of
Israel
between
the
joints
of
the
armor:
wherefore
he
said
unto
the
driver
of
his
chariot,
Turn
thy
hand,
and
carry
me
out
of
the
host;
for
I
am
sore
wounded.
35 22:35
And
the
battle
increased
that
day:
and
the
king
was
stayed
up
in
his
chariot
against
the
Syrians,
and
died
at
even;
and
the
blood
ran
out
of
the
wound
into
the
bottom
of
the
chariot.
36 22:36
And
there
went
a
cry
throughout
the
host
about
the
going
down
of
the
sun,
saying,
Every
man
to
his
city,
and
every
man
to
his
country.
37 22:37
So
the
king
died,
and
was
brought
to
Samaria;
and
they
buried
the
king
in
Samaria.
38 22:38
And
they
washed
the
chariot
by
the
pool
of
Samaria;
and
the
dogs
licked
up
his
blood (now
the
harlots
washed
themselves
there);
according
unto
the
word
of
Jehovah
which
he
spake.
39 22:39
Now
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Ahab,
and
all
that
he
did,
and
the
ivory
house
which
he
built,
and
all
the
cities
that
he
built,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Israel?
40 22:40
So
Ahab
slept
with
his
fathers;
and
Ahaziah
his
son
reigned
in
his
stead.
41 22:41
And
Jehoshaphat
the
son
of
Asa
began
to
reign
over
Judah
in
the
fourth
year
of
Ahab
king
of
Israel.
42 22:42
Jehoshaphat
was
thirty
and
five
years
old
when
he
began
to
reign;
and
he
reigned
twenty
and
five
years
in
Jerusalem.
And
his
mother’s
name
was
Azubah
the
daughter
of
Shilhi.
43 22:43
And
he
walked
in
all
the
way
of
Asa
his
father;
he
turned
not
aside
from
it,
doing
that
which
was
right
in
the
eyes
of
Jehovah:
howbeit
the
high
places
were
not
taken
away;
the
people
still
sacrificed
and
burnt
incense
in
the
high
places.
44 22:44
And
Jehoshaphat
made
peace
with
the
king
of
Israel.
45 22:45
Now
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Jehoshaphat,
and
his
might
that
he
showed,
and
how
he
warred,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Judah?
46 22:46
And
the
remnant
of
the
sodomites,
that
remained
in
the
days
of
his
father
Asa,
he
put
away
out
of
the
land.
47 22:47
And
there
was
no
king
in
Edom:
a
deputy
was
king.
48 22:48
Jehoshaphat
made
ships
of
Tarshish
to
go
to
Ophir
for
gold:
but
they
went
not;
for
the
ships
were
broken
at
Ezion-geber.
49 22:49
Then
said
Ahaziah
the
son
of
Ahab
unto
Jehoshaphat,
Let
my
servants
go
with
thy
servants
in
the
ships.
But
Jehoshaphat
would
not.
50 22:50
And
Jehoshaphat
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
was
buried
with
his
fathers
in
the
city
of
David
his
father;
And
Jehoram
his
son
reigned
in
his
stead.
51 22:51
Ahaziah
the
son
of
Ahab
began
to
reign
over
Israel
in
Samaria
in
the
seventeenth
year
of
Jehoshaphat
king
of
Judah,
and
he
reigned
two
years
over
Israel.
52 22:52
And
he
did
that
which
was
evil
in
the
sight
of
Jehovah,
and
walked
in
the
way
of
his
father,
and
in
the
way
of
his
mother,
and
in
the
way
of
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat,
wherein
he
made
Israel
to
sin.
53 22:53
And
he
served
Baal,
and
worshipped
him,
and
provoked
to
anger
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
according
to
all
that
his
father
had
done.
