2 Kings 13:1
|
|
In the three and twentieth year of Joash the
son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel
in Samaria, and reigned seventeen years. |
|
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:2 |
|
And he did that which was evil in the sight
of Jehovah, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made
Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:3 |
|
And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against
Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into
the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, continually. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:4 |
|
And Jehoahaz besought Jehovah, and Jehovah hearkened
unto him; for he saw the oppression of Israel, how that the king of Syria oppressed
them. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:5 |
|
(And Jehovah gave Israel a saviour, so that
they went out from under the hand of the Syrians; and the children of Israel dwelt
in their tents as beforetime. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:6 |
|
Nevertheless they departed not from the sins
of the house of Jeroboam, wherewith he made Israel to sin, but walked therein:
and there remained the Asherah also in Samaria.) |
| |
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:7 |
|
For he left not to Jehoahaz of the people save
fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria
destroyed them, and made them like the dust in threshing. |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:8 |
|
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all
that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles
of the kings of Israel? |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:9 |
|
And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they
buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son reigned in his stead. |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:10 |
|
In the thirty and seventh year of Joash king
of Judah began Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria, and
reigned sixteen years. |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:11 |
|
And he did that which was evil in the sight
of Jehovah; he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith
he made Israel to sin; but he walked therein. |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:12 |
|
Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that
he did, and his might wherewith he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they
not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel? |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:13 |
|
And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam
sat upon his throne: and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
|
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:14 |
|
Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof
he died: and Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over him, and
said, My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and the horsemen thereof! |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:15 |
|
And Elisha said unto him, Take bow and arrows;
and he took unto him bow and arrows. |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:16 |
|
And he said to the king of Israel, Put thy hand
upon the bow; and he put his hand upon it. And Elisha laid his hands upon the
king's hands. |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:17 |
|
And he said, Open the window eastward; and he
opened it. Then Elisha said, Shoot; and he shot. And he said, Jehovah's arrow
of victory, even the arrow of victory over Syria; for thou shalt smite the Syrians
in Aphek, till thou have consumed them. |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:18 |
|
And he said, Take the arrows; and he took them.
And he said unto the king of Israel, Smite upon the ground; and he smote thrice,
and stayed. |
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:19 |
|
And the man of God was wroth with him, and said,
Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times: then hadst thou smitten Syria till
thou hadst consumed it, whereas now thou shalt smite Syria but thrice. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:20 |
|
And Elisha died, and they buried him. Now the
bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:21 |
|
And it came to pass, as they were burying a
man, that, behold, they spied a band; and they cast the man into the sepulchre
of Elisha: and as soon as the man touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and
stood up on his feet. |
|
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:22 |
|
And Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all
the days of Jehoahaz. |
|
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:23 |
|
But Jehovah was gracious unto them, and had
compassion on them, and had respect unto them, because of his covenant with Abraham,
Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence
as yet. |
|
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:24 |
|
And Hazael king of Syria died; and Benhadad
his son reigned in his stead. |
|
|
|
|
| 2 Kings 13:25 |
|
And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out
of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken out of
the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times did Joash smite him, and recovered
the cities of Israel. |
