1 وكلم اليشع المرأة التي احيا ابنها قائلا قومي وانطلقي انت وبيتك وتغرّبي حيثما تتغربي. لان الرب قد دعا بجوع فيأتي ايضا على الارض سبع سنين.2 فقامت المرأة وفعلت حسب كلام رجل الله وانطلقت هي وبيتها وتغربت في ارض الفلسطينيين سبع سنين3 وفي نهاية السنين السبع رجعت المرأة من ارض الفلسطينيين وخرجت لتصرخ الى الملك لاجل بيتها وحقلها.4 وكلم الملك جيحزي غلام رجل الله قائلا قص عليّ جميع العظائم التي فعلها اليشع.5 وفيما هو يقص على الملك كيف انه احيا الميت اذا بالمرأة التي احيا ابنها تصرخ الى الملك لاجل بيتها ولاجل حقلها. فقال جيحزي يا سيدي الملك هذه هي المرأة وهذا هو ابنها الذي احياه اليشع.6 فسأل الملك المرأة فقصت عليه ذلك. فاعطاها الملك خصيا قائلا ارجع كل ما لها وجميع غلات الحقل من حين تركت الارض الى الآن7 وجاء اليشع الى دمشق. وكان بنهدد ملك ارام مريضا. فأخبر وقيل له قد جاء رجل الله الى هنا.8 فقال الملك لحزائيل خذ بيدك هدية واذهب لاستقبال رجل الله واسأل الرب به قائلا هل اشفى من مرضي هذا.9 فذهب حزائيل لاستقباله واخذ هدية بيده ومن كل خيرات دمشق حمل اربعين جملا وجاء ووقف امامه وقال ان ابنك بنهدد ملك ارام قد ارسلني اليك قائلا هل اشفى من مرضي هذا.10 فقال له اليشع اذهب وقل له شفاء تشفى. وقد اراني الرب انه يموت موتا.11 فجعل نظره عليه وثبّته حتى خجل. فبكى رجل الله.12 فقال حزائيل لماذا يبكي سيدي. فقال لاني علمت ما ستفعله ببني اسرائيل من الشر فانك تطلق النار على حصونهم وتقتل شبانهم بالسيف وتحطم اطفالهم وتشقّ حواملهم.13 فقال حزائيل ومن هو عبدك الكلب حتى يفعل هذا الأمر العظيم. فقال اليشع قد اراني الرب اياك ملكا على ارام.14 فانطلق من عند اليشع ودخل الى سيده فقال له ماذا قال لك اليشع. فقال قال لي انك تحيا.15 وفي الغد اخذ اللبدة وغمسها بالماء ونشرها على وجهه ومات وملك حزائيل عوضا عنه16 وفي السنة الخامسة ليورام بن اخآب ملك اسرائيل ويهوشافاط ملك يهوذا ملك يهورام بن يهوشافاط ملك يهوذا.17 كان ابن اثنتين وثلاثين سنة حين ملك وملك ثماني سنين في اورشليم.18 وسار في طريق ملوك اسرائيل كما فعل بيت اخآب لان بنت اخآب كانت له امرأة. وعمل الشر في عيني الرب.19 ولم يشإ الرب ان يبيد يهوذا من اجل داود عبده كما قال انه يعطيه سراجا ولبنيه كل الايام.20 وفي ايامه عصى ادوم من تحت يد يهوذا وملّكوا على انفسهم ملكا.21 وعبر يورام الى صعير وجميع المركبات معه وقام ليلا وضرب ادوم المحيط به ورؤساء المركبات وهرب الشعب الى خيامهم.22 وعصى ادوم من تحت يد يهوذا الى هذا اليوم. حينئذ عصت لبنة في ذلك الوقت.23 وبقية امور يورام وكل ما صنع أما هي مكتوبة في سفر اخبار الايام لملوك يهوذا.24 واضطجع يورام مع آبائه ودفن مع آبائه في مدينة داود وملك اخزيا ابنه عوضا عنه25 في السنة الثانية عشرة ليورام بن اخآب ملك اسرائيل ملك اخزيا بن يهورام ملك يهوذا.26 كان اخزيا ابن اثنتين وعشرين سنة حين ملك وملك سنة واحدة في اورشليم. واسم امه عثليا بنت عمري ملك اسرائيل.27 وسار في طريق بيت اخآب وعمل الشر في عيني الرب كبيت اخآب لانه كان صهر بيت اخآب.28 وانطلق مع يورام بن اخآب لمقاتلة حزائيل ملك ارام في راموت جلعاد فضرب الاراميون يورام.29 فرجع يورام الملك ليبرأ في يزرعيل من الجروح التي جرحه بها الاراميون في راموت عند مقاتلته حزائيل ملك ارام. ونزل اخزيا بن يهورام ملك يهوذا ليرى يورام بن اخآب في يزرعيل لانه كان مريضا

1 Then spoke Elisha to the woman, whose son he had restored to life, saying, Arise, and go you and your household, and sojourn wherever you can sojourn: for the LORD has called for a famine; and it shall also come on the land seven years.2 And the woman arose, and did after the saying of the man of God: and she went with her household, and sojourned in the land of the Philistines seven years.3 And it came to pass at the seven years'end, that the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines: and she went forth to cry to the king for her house and for her land.4 And the king talked with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, Tell me, I pray you, all the great things that Elisha has done.5 And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored a dead body to life, that, behold, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land. And Gehazi said, My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life.6 And when the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed to her a certain officer, saying, Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day that she left the land, even until now.7 And Elisha came to Damascus; and Benhadad the king of Syria was sick; and it was told him, saying, The man of God is come here.8 And the king said to Hazael, Take a present in your hand, and go, meet the man of God, and inquire of the LORD by him, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?9 So Hazael went to meet him, and took a present with him, even of every good thing of Damascus, forty camels'burden, and came and stood before him, and said, Your son Benhadad king of Syria has sent me to you, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?10 And Elisha said to him, Go, say to him, You may certainly recover: however, the LORD has showed me that he shall surely die.11 And he settled his countenance steadfastly, until he was ashamed: and the man of God wept.12 And Hazael said, Why weeps my lord? And he answered, Because I know the evil that you will do to the children of Israel: their strong holds will you set on fire, and their young men will you slay with the sword, and will dash their children, and rip up their women with child.13 And Hazael said, But what, is your servant a dog, that he should do this great thing? And Elisha answered, The LORD has showed me that you shall be king over Syria.14 So he departed from Elisha, and came to his master; who said to him, What said Elisha to you? And he answered, He told me that you should surely recover.15 And it came to pass on the morrow, that he took a thick cloth, and dipped it in water, and spread it on his face, so that he died: and Hazael reigned in his stead.16 And in the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat being then king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Je hoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.17 Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.18 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab: for the daughter of Ahab was his wife: and he did evil in the sight of the LORD.19 Yet the LORD would not destroy Judah for David his servant' sake, as he promised him to give him always a light, and to his children.20 In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.21 So Joram went over to Zair, and all the chariots with him: and he rose by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots: and the people fled into their tents.22 Yet Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah to this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.23 And the rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?24 And Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.25 In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel did Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah begin to reign.26 Two and twenty years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother' name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri king of Israel.27 And he walked in the way of the house of Ahab, and did evil in the sight of the LORD, as did the house of Ahab: for he was the son in law of the house of Ahab.28 And he went with Joram the son of Ahab to the war against Hazael king of Syria in Ramothgilead; and the Syrians wounded Joram.29 And king Joram went back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
