מלכים ב 4
| וְאִשָּׁה אַחַת מִנְּשֵׁי בְנֵֽי־הַנְּבִיאִים צָעֲקָה אֶל־אֱלִישָׁע לֵאמֹר עַבְדְּךָ אִישִׁי מֵת וְאַתָּה יָדַעְתָּ כִּי עַבְדְּךָ הָיָה יָרֵא אֶת־יְהֹוָה וְהַנֹּשֶׁה בָּא לָקַחַת אֶת־שְׁנֵי יְלָדַי לוֹ לַעֲבָדִֽים׃ | 1 |
Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets to Elisha, saying, Your servant my husband is dead; and you know that your servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take to him my two sons to be slaves.
| וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלֶיהָ אֱלִישָׁע מָה אֶֽעֱשֶׂה־לָּךְ הַגִּידִי לִי מַה־יֶּשׁ־[לָךְ] (לכי) בַּבָּיִת וַתֹּאמֶר אֵין לְשִׁפְחָתְךָ כֹל בַּבַּיִת כִּי אִם־אָסוּךְ שָֽׁמֶן׃ | 2 |
And Elisha said to her, What shall I do for you? tell me, what have you in the house? And she said, Your handmaid has not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.
| וַיֹּאמֶר לְכִי שַׁאֲלִי־לָךְ כֵּלִים מִן־הַחוּץ מֵאֵת כׇּל־[שְׁכֵנָיִךְ] (שכנכי) כֵּלִים רֵקִים אַל־תַּמְעִֽיטִי׃ | 3 |
Then he said, Go, borrow you vessels abroad of all your neighbors, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.
| וּבָאת וְסָגַרְתְּ הַדֶּלֶת בַּעֲדֵךְ וּבְעַד־בָּנַיִךְ וְיָצַקְתְּ עַל כׇּל־הַכֵּלִים הָאֵלֶּה וְהַמָּלֵא תַּסִּֽיעִי׃ | 4 |
And when you are come in, you shall shut the door on you and on your sons, and shall pour out into all those vessels, and you shall set aside that which is full.
| וַתֵּלֶךְ מֵֽאִתּוֹ וַתִּסְגֹּר הַדֶּלֶת בַּעֲדָהּ וּבְעַד בָּנֶיהָ הֵם מַגִּישִׁים אֵלֶיהָ וְהִיא (מיצקת) [מוֹצָֽקֶת]׃ | 5 |
So she went from him, and shut the door on her and on her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out.
| וַיְהִי ׀ כִּמְלֹאת הַכֵּלִים וַתֹּאמֶר אֶל־בְּנָהּ הַגִּישָׁה אֵלַי עוֹד כֶּלִי וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלֶיהָ אֵין עוֹד כֶּלִי וַֽיַּעֲמֹד הַשָּֽׁמֶן׃ | 6 |
And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said to her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.
| וַתָּבֹא וַתַּגֵּד לְאִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים וַיֹּאמֶר לְכִי מִכְרִי אֶת־הַשֶּׁמֶן וְשַׁלְּמִי אֶת־[נִשְׁיֵךְ] (נשיכי) וְאַתְּ [וּבָנַיִךְ] (בניכי) תִּֽחְיִי בַּנּוֹתָֽר׃ | 7 |
Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay your debt, and live you and your children of the rest.
| וַיְהִי הַיּוֹם וַיַּֽעֲבֹר אֱלִישָׁע אֶל־שׁוּנֵם וְשָׁם אִשָּׁה גְדוֹלָה וַתַּחֲזֶק־בּוֹ לֶאֱכׇל־לָחֶם וַֽיְהִי מִדֵּי עׇבְרוֹ יָסֻר שָׁמָּה לֶאֱכׇל־לָֽחֶם׃ | 8 |
And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.
| וַתֹּאמֶר אֶל־אִישָׁהּ הִנֵּה־נָא יָדַעְתִּי כִּי אִישׁ אֱלֹהִים קָדוֹשׁ הוּא עֹבֵר עָלֵינוּ תָּמִֽיד׃ | 9 |
And she said to her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passes by us continually.
| נַעֲשֶׂה־נָּא עֲלִיַּת־קִיר קְטַנָּה וְנָשִׂים לוֹ שָׁם מִטָּה וְשֻׁלְחָן וְכִסֵּא וּמְנוֹרָה וְהָיָה בְּבֹאוֹ אֵלֵינוּ יָסוּר שָֽׁמָּה׃ | 10 |
Let us make a little chamber, I pray you, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he comes to us, that he shall turn in thither.
| וַיְהִי הַיּוֹם וַיָּבֹא שָׁמָּה וַיָּסַר אֶל־הָעֲלִיָּה וַיִּשְׁכַּב־שָֽׁמָּה׃ | 11 |
And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there.
| וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל־גֵּיחֲזִי נַעֲרוֹ קְרָא לַשּׁוּנַמִּית הַזֹּאת וַיִּקְרָא־לָהּ וַֽתַּעֲמֹד לְפָנָֽיו׃ | 12 |
And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him.
| וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ אֱמׇר־נָא אֵלֶיהָ הִנֵּה חָרַדְתְּ ׀ אֵלֵינוּ אֶת־כׇּל־הַחֲרָדָה הַזֹּאת מֶה לַעֲשׂוֹת לָךְ הֲיֵשׁ לְדַבֶּר־לָךְ אֶל־הַמֶּלֶךְ אוֹ אֶל־שַׂר הַצָּבָא וַתֹּאמֶר בְּתוֹךְ עַמִּי אָנֹכִי יֹשָֽׁבֶת׃ | 13 |
And he said to him, Say now to her, Behold, you have been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for you? would you be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among my own people.
| וַיֹּאמֶר וּמֶה לַעֲשׂוֹת לָהּ וַיֹּאמֶר גֵּיחֲזִי אֲבָל בֵּן אֵֽין־לָהּ וְאִישָׁהּ זָקֵֽן׃ | 14 |
And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Truly she has no child, and her husband is old.
| וַיֹּאמֶר קְרָא־לָהּ וַיִּקְרָא־לָהּ וַֽתַּעֲמֹד בַּפָּֽתַח׃ | 15 |
And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door.
| וַיֹּאמֶר לַמּוֹעֵד הַזֶּה כָּעֵת חַיָּה (אתי) [אַתְּ] חֹבֶקֶת בֵּן וַתֹּאמֶר אַל־אֲדֹנִי אִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים אַל־תְּכַזֵּב בְּשִׁפְחָתֶֽךָ׃ | 16 |
And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, you shall embrace a son. And she said, No, my lord, you man of God, do not lie to your handmaid.
| וַתַּהַר הָאִשָּׁה וַתֵּלֶד בֵּן לַמּוֹעֵד הַזֶּה כָּעֵת חַיָּה אֲשֶׁר־דִּבֶּר אֵלֶיהָ אֱלִישָֽׁע׃ | 17 |
And the woman conceived, and bore a son at that season that Elisha had said to her, according to the time of life.
| וַיִּגְדַּל הַיָּלֶד וַיְהִי הַיּוֹם וַיֵּצֵא אֶל־אָבִיו אֶל־הַקֹּצְרִֽים׃ | 18 |
And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.
| וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל־אָבִיו רֹאשִׁי ׀ רֹאשִׁי וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל־הַנַּעַר שָׂאֵהוּ אֶל־אִמּֽוֹ׃ | 19 |
And he said to his father, My head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.
| וַיִּשָּׂאֵהוּ וַיְבִיאֵהוּ אֶל־אִמּוֹ וַיֵּשֶׁב עַל־בִּרְכֶּיהָ עַד־הַֽצׇּהֳרַיִם וַיָּמֹֽת׃ | 20 |
And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died.
| וַתַּעַל וַתַּשְׁכִּבֵהוּ עַל־מִטַּת אִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים וַתִּסְגֹּר בַּעֲדוֹ וַתֵּצֵֽא׃ | 21 |
And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door on him, and went out.
| וַתִּקְרָא אֶל־אִישָׁהּ וַתֹּאמֶר שִׁלְחָה נָא לִי אֶחָד מִן־הַנְּעָרִים וְאַחַת הָאֲתֹנוֹת וְאָרוּצָה עַד־אִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים וְאָשֽׁוּבָה׃ | 22 |
And she called to her husband, and said, Send me, I pray you, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.
| וַיֹּאמֶר מַדּוּעַ (אתי) [אַתְּ] (הלכתי) [הֹלֶכֶת] אֵלָיו הַיּוֹם לֹא־חֹדֶשׁ וְלֹא שַׁבָּת וַתֹּאמֶר שָׁלֽוֹם׃ | 23 |
And he said, Why will you go to him to day? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well.
| וַֽתַּחֲבֹשׁ הָאָתוֹן וַתֹּאמֶר אֶֽל־נַעֲרָהּ נְהַג וָלֵךְ אַל־תַּעֲצׇר־לִי לִרְכֹּב כִּי אִם־אָמַרְתִּי לָֽךְ׃ | 24 |
Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; slack not your riding for me, except I bid you.
| וַתֵּלֶךְ וַתָּבֹא אֶל־אִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים אֶל־הַר הַכַּרְמֶל וַיְהִי כִּרְאוֹת אִישׁ־הָאֱלֹהִים אֹתָהּ מִנֶּגֶד וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל־גֵּיחֲזִי נַעֲרוֹ הִנֵּה הַשּׁוּנַמִּית הַלָּֽז׃ | 25 |
So she went and came to the man of God to mount Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is that Shunammite:
| עַתָּה רֽוּץ־נָא לִקְרָאתָהּ וֶאֱמׇר־לָהּ הֲשָׁלוֹם לָךְ הֲשָׁלוֹם לְאִישֵׁךְ הֲשָׁלוֹם לַיָּלֶד וַתֹּאמֶר שָׁלֽוֹם׃ | 26 |
Run now, I pray you, to meet her, and say to her, Is it well with you? is it well with your husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well:
| וַתָּבֹא אֶל־אִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים אֶל־הָהָר וַֽתַּחֲזֵק בְּרַגְלָיו וַיִּגַּשׁ גֵּיחֲזִי לְהׇדְפָהּ וַיֹּאמֶר אִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים הַרְפֵּה־לָהּ כִּֽי־נַפְשָׁהּ מָֽרָה־לָהּ וַֽיהֹוָה הֶעְלִים מִמֶּנִּי וְלֹא הִגִּיד לִֽי׃ | 27 |
And when she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught him by the feet: but Gehazi came near to thrust her away. And the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul is vexed within her: and the LORD has hid it from me, and has not told me.
| וַתֹּאמֶר הֲשָׁאַלְתִּי בֵן מֵאֵת אֲדֹנִי הֲלֹא אָמַרְתִּי לֹא תַשְׁלֶה אֹתִֽי׃ | 28 |
Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me?
| וַיֹּאמֶר לְגֵיחֲזִי חֲגֹר מׇתְנֶיךָ וְקַח מִשְׁעַנְתִּי בְיָדְךָ וָלֵךְ כִּי־תִמְצָא אִישׁ לֹא תְבָרְכֶנּוּ וְכִֽי־יְבָרֶכְךָ אִישׁ לֹא תַעֲנֶנּוּ וְשַׂמְתָּ מִשְׁעַנְתִּי עַל־פְּנֵי הַנָּֽעַר׃ | 29 |
Then he said to Gehazi, Gird up your loins, and take my staff in your hand, and go your way: if you meet any man, salute him not; and if any salute you, answer him not again: and lay my staff on the face of the child.
| וַתֹּאמֶר אֵם הַנַּעַר חַי־יְהֹוָה וְחֵֽי־נַפְשְׁךָ אִם־אֶעֶזְבֶךָּ וַיָּקׇם וַיֵּלֶךְ אַחֲרֶֽיהָ׃ | 30 |
And the mother of the child said, As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you. And he arose, and followed her.
| וְגֵחֲזִי עָבַר לִפְנֵיהֶם וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת־הַמִּשְׁעֶנֶת עַל־פְּנֵי הַנַּעַר וְאֵין קוֹל וְאֵין קָשֶׁב וַיָּשׇׁב לִקְרָאתוֹ וַיַּגֶּד־לוֹ לֵאמֹר לֹא הֵקִיץ הַנָּֽעַר׃ | 31 |
And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff on the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Why he went again to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not awaked.
| וַיָּבֹא אֱלִישָׁע הַבָּיְתָה וְהִנֵּה הַנַּעַר מֵת מֻשְׁכָּב עַל־מִטָּתֽוֹ׃ | 32 |
And when Elisha was come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid on his bed.
| וַיָּבֹא וַיִּסְגֹּר הַדֶּלֶת בְּעַד שְׁנֵיהֶם וַיִּתְפַּלֵּל אֶל־יְהֹוָֽה׃ | 33 |
He went in therefore, and shut the door on them two, and prayed to the LORD.
| וַיַּעַל וַיִּשְׁכַּב עַל־הַיֶּלֶד וַיָּשֶׂם פִּיו עַל־פִּיו וְעֵינָיו עַל־עֵינָיו וְכַפָּיו עַל־כַּפָּו וַיִּגְהַר עָלָיו וַיָּחׇם בְּשַׂר הַיָּֽלֶד׃ | 34 |
And he went up, and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands: and stretched himself on the child; and the flesh of the child waxed warm.
| וַיָּשׇׁב וַיֵּלֶךְ בַּבַּיִת אַחַת הֵנָּה וְאַחַת הֵנָּה וַיַּעַל וַיִּגְהַר עָלָיו וַיְזוֹרֵר הַנַּעַר עַד־שֶׁבַע פְּעָמִים וַיִּפְקַח הַנַּעַר אֶת־עֵינָֽיו׃ | 35 |
Then he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself on him: and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.
| וַיִּקְרָא אֶל־גֵּיחֲזִי וַיֹּאמֶר קְרָא אֶל־הַשֻּׁנַמִּית הַזֹּאת וַיִּקְרָאֶהָ וַתָּבֹא אֵלָיו וַיֹּאמֶר שְׂאִי בְנֵֽךְ׃ | 36 |
And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. So he called her. And when she was come in to him, he said, Take up your son.
| וַתָּבֹא וַתִּפֹּל עַל־רַגְלָיו וַתִּשְׁתַּחוּ אָרְצָה וַתִּשָּׂא אֶת־בְּנָהּ וַתֵּצֵֽא׃ | 37 |
Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground, and took up her son, and went out.
| וֶאֱלִישָׁע שָׁב הַגִּלְגָּלָה וְהָרָעָב בָּאָרֶץ וּבְנֵי הַנְּבִיאִים יֹשְׁבִים לְפָנָיו וַיֹּאמֶר לְנַעֲרוֹ שְׁפֹת הַסִּיר הַגְּדוֹלָה וּבַשֵּׁל נָזִיד לִבְנֵי הַנְּבִיאִֽים׃ | 38 |
And Elisha came again to Gilgal: and there was a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him: and he said to his servant, Set on the great pot, and seethe pottage for the sons of the prophets.
| וַיֵּצֵא אֶחָד אֶל־הַשָּׂדֶה לְלַקֵּט אֹרֹת וַיִּמְצָא גֶּפֶן שָׂדֶה וַיְלַקֵּט מִמֶּנּוּ פַּקֻּעֹת שָׂדֶה מְלֹא בִגְדוֹ וַיָּבֹא וַיְפַלַּח אֶל־סִיר הַנָּזִיד כִּי־לֹא יָדָֽעוּ׃ | 39 |
And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered thereof wild gourds his lap full, and came and shred them into the pot of pottage: for they knew them not.
| וַיִּֽצְקוּ לַאֲנָשִׁים לֶאֱכוֹל וַיְהִי כְּאׇכְלָם מֵהַנָּזִיד וְהֵמָּה צָעָקוּ וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ מָוֶת בַּסִּיר אִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים וְלֹא יָכְלוּ לֶֽאֱכֹֽל׃ | 40 |
So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, O you man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof.
| וַיֹּאמֶר וּקְחוּ־קֶמַח וַיַּשְׁלֵךְ אֶל־הַסִּיר וַיֹּאמֶר צַק לָעָם וְיֹאכֵלוּ וְלֹא הָיָה דָּבָר רָע בַּסִּֽיר׃ | 41 |
But he said, Then bring meal. And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot.
| וְאִישׁ בָּא מִבַּעַל שָׁלִשָׁה וַיָּבֵא לְאִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים לֶחֶם בִּכּוּרִים עֶשְׂרִֽים־לֶחֶם שְׂעֹרִים וְכַרְמֶל בְּצִקְלֹנוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר תֵּן לָעָם וְיֹאכֵֽלוּ׃ | 42 |
And there came a man from Baalshalisha, and brought the man of God bread of the first fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and full ears of corn in the husk thereof. And he said, Give to the people, that they may eat.
| וַיֹּאמֶר מְשָׁרְתוֹ מָה אֶתֵּן זֶה לִפְנֵי מֵאָה אִישׁ וַיֹּאמֶר תֵּן לָעָם וְיֹאכֵלוּ כִּי כֹה אָמַר יְהֹוָה אָכֹל וְהוֹתֵֽר׃ | 43 |
And his servitor said, What, should I set this before an hundred men? He said again, Give the people, that they may eat: for thus says the LORD, They shall eat, and shall leave thereof.
| וַיִּתֵּן לִפְנֵיהֶם וַיֹּאכְלוּ וַיּוֹתִרוּ כִּדְבַר יְהֹוָֽה׃ | 44 |
So he set it before them, and they did eat, and left thereof, according to the word of the LORD.
