2 Kings 8

1 And Elisha he spoke to the woman whom he had restored to life son her saying arise and go (you *Q(K)*) and household your and sojourn in where you will sojourn for he has called Yahweh for famine and also it will come to the land seven years.

And Elisha spoke to the woman whose son he had revived, saying, “Rise and go, you and your household, and sojourn where you sojourn, for YHWH has called for a famine, and also, it is coming to the land [for] seven years.”

2 And she arose the woman and she did according to [the] word of [the] man of God and she went she and household her and she sojourned in [the] land of [the] Philistines seven years.

And the woman rises, and does according to the word of the man of God, and goes, she and her household, and sojourns in the land of the Philistines [for] seven years.

3 And it was from [the] end of seven years and she returned the woman from [the] land of [the] Philistines and she went out to cry out to the king concerning house her and concerning field her.

And it comes to pass, at the end of seven years, that the woman turns back from the land of the Philistines, and goes out to cry to the king for her house and for her field.

4 And the king [was] speaking to Gehazi [the] servant of [the] man of God saying recount! please to me all the great [things] which he has done Elisha.

And the king is speaking to Gehazi, servant of the man of God, saying, “Please recount to me the whole of the great things that Elisha has done.”

5 And he was he recounting to the king this: he had restored to life the dead [one] and there! the woman whom he had restored to life son her [was] crying out for help to the king on house her and on field her and he said Gehazi O lord my the king this [is] the woman and this [is] son her whom he restored to life Elisha.

And it comes to pass, he is recounting to the king how he had revived the dead, and behold, the woman whose son he had revived is crying to the king for her house and for her field, and Gehazi says, “My lord, O king, this [is] the woman, and this [is] her son, whom Elisha revived.”

6 And he asked the king the woman and she recounted to him and he assigned to her the king a court-official one saying restore all that [belonged] to her and all [the] produce of the field from [the] day [when] she left the land and until now.

And the king inquires of the woman, and she recounts to him, and the king appoints a certain eunuch to her, saying, “Give back all that she has, and all the increase of the field from the day of her leaving the land even until now.”

7 And he went Elisha Damascus and Ben Hadad [the] king of Aram [was] sick and it was told to him saying he has come [the] man of God to here.

And Elisha comes to Damascus, and Ben-Hadad king of Aram is sick, and it is declared to him, saying, “The man of God has come here.”

8 And he said the king to Hazael take in hand your a gift and go to meet [the] man of God and you will consult Yahweh from him saying ¿ will I live from sickness this.

And the king says to Hazael, “Take a present in your hand, and go to meet the man of God, and you have sought YHWH by him, saying, Do I revive from this sickness?”

9 And he went Hazael to meet him and he took a gift in hand his and every good thing of Damascus [the] load of forty camel[s] and he came and he stood before him and he said son your Ben Hadad [the] king of Aram he has sent me to you saying ¿ will I live from sickness this.

And Hazael goes to meet him, and takes a present in his hand, even of every good thing of Damascus, a burden of forty camels, and he comes in and stands before him, and says, “Your son Ben-Hadad, king of Aram, has sent me to you, saying, Do I revive from this sickness?”

10 And he said to him Elisha go say (to him *Q(K)*) certainly you will live and he has shown me Yahweh that certainly he will die.

And Elisha says to him, “Go, say, You certainly do not revive, seeing [that] YHWH has showed me that he surely dies.”

11 And he set face his and he set until was ashamed and he wept [the] man of God.

And he sets his face, indeed, he sets [it] until he is ashamed, and the man of God weeps.

12 And he said Hazael why? [is] lord my weeping and he said for I know this: you will do to [the] people of Israel harm fortifications their you will send in fire and young men their with the sword you will kill and children their you will dash in pieces and pregnant [women] their you will rip open.

And Hazael says, “Why is my lord weeping?” And he says, “Because I have known the evil that you do to the sons of Israel—you send their fortifications into fire, and you slay their young men with sword, and you dash their sucklings to pieces, and you rip up their pregnant women.”

13 And he said Hazael that what? [is] servant your the dog that he will do the thing great this and he said Elisha he has shown me Yahweh you king over Aram.

And Hazael says, “But what [is] your servant—the dog, that he does this great thing?” And Elisha says, “YHWH has showed me you—king of Aram.”

14 And he went - from with Elisha and he came to master his and he said to him what? did he say to you Elisha and he said he said to me certainly you will live.

And he goes from Elisha, and comes to his lord, and he says to him, “What did Elisha say to you?” And he says, “He said to me, You certainly recover.”

15 And it was from [the] next day and he took the coverlet and he dipped [it] in water and he spread [it] out over face his and he died and he became king Hazael in place of him.

And it comes to pass on the next day, that he takes the coarse cloth, and dips [it] in water, and spreads [it] on his face, and he dies, and Hazael reigns in his stead.

16 And in year five of Joram [the] son of Ahab [the] king of Israel and Jehoshaphat [was] [the] king of Judah he became king Jehoram [the] son of Jehoshaphat [the] king of Judah.

And in the fifth year of Joram son of Ahab, king of Israel—and Jehoshaphat [is] king of Judah—Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, has reigned;

17 A son of thirty and two year[s] he was when became king he and eight (years *Q(K)*) he reigned in Jerusalem.

he was a son of thirty-two years in his reigning, and he has reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

18 And he walked in [the] way of - [the] kings of Israel just as they did [the] house of Ahab for [the] daughter of Ahab she became of him a wife and he did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh.

And he walks in the way of the kings of Israel, as the house of Ahab did, for a daughter of Ahab was to him for a wife, and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH,

19 And not he was willing Yahweh to destroy Judah for [the] sake of David servant his just as he had said to him to give to him a lamp to sons his all the days.

and YHWH was not willing to destroy Judah, for the sake of His servant David, as He said to him, to give a lamp to him—to his sons [for] all the days.

20 In days his it rebelled Edom from under [the] hand of Judah and they made king over themselves a king.

In his days Edom has revolted from under the hand of Judah, and they cause a king to reign over them,

21 And he passed over Joram Zair towards and all the chariotry [was] with him and it was he he arose night and he struck down Edom which was surrounding him and [the] commanders of the chariotry and it fled the people to tents its.

22 And it has rebelled Edom from under [the] hand of Judah until the day this then it rebelled Libnah at the time that.

and Edom revolts from under the hand of Judah until this day; then Libnah revolts at that time.

23 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Joram and all that he did ¿ not [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] matters of the days of [the] kings of Judah.

And the rest of the matters of Joram and all that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

24 And he lay down Joram with ancestors his and he was buried with ancestors his in [the] city of David and he became king Ahaziah son his in place of him.

And Joram lies with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the City of David, and his son Ahaziah reigns in his stead.

25 In year two [plus] ten year of Joram [the] son of Ahab [the] king of Israel he became king Ahaziah [the] son of Jehoram [the] king of Judah.

In the twelfth year of Joram son of Ahab, king of Israel, Ahaziah son of Jehoram, king of Judah, has reigned;

26 [was] a son of Twenty and two year[s] Ahaziah when became king he and a year one he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his [was] Athaliah [the] daughter of Omri [the] king of Israel.

27 And he walked in [the] way of [the] house of Ahab and he did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh like [the] house of Ahab for [was] [the] son-in-law of [the] house of Ahab he.

and he walks in the way of the house of Ahab, and does evil in the eyes of YHWH, like the house of Ahab, for he [is] son-in-law of the house of Ahab.

And he goes with Joram son of Ahab to battle with Hazael king of Aram in Ramoth-Gilead, and the Arameans strike Joram,
