2Kings:4-5




mkjv@2Kings:4:1 @ And a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried to Elisha, saying, Your servant my husband is dead. And you know that your servant feared the LORD. And the lender has come to take my two children to himself for slaves.

mkjv@2Kings:4:2 @ And Elisha said to her, What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house? And she said, Your handmaid has not a thing in the house except a pot of oil.

mkjv@2Kings:4:3 @ And he said, Go, borrow vessels for yourself from outside, from your neighbors, empty vessels. Do not let [them] be few.

mkjv@2Kings:4:4 @ And you shall go in and shut the door on you and your sons. And you shall pour out into all those vessels. And you shall set aside the full ones.

mkjv@2Kings:4:5 @ And she went from him and shut the door on her and on her sons. They brought to her, and she poured out.

mkjv@2Kings:4:6 @ And it happened when the vessels were full, she said to her son, Bring me another vessel. And he said to her, [There is] not a vessel left. And the oil stopped.

mkjv@2Kings:4:8 @ And the day came when Elisha passed over to Shunem. And a great woman [was] there. And she laid hold on him to eat bread. And it happened, as often as he passed by, he turned in there to eat bread.

mkjv@2Kings:4:9 @ And she said to her husband, Behold now, I see that this [is] a holy man of God who passes by us continually.

mkjv@2Kings:4:10 @ Please, let us make a little room on the wall. And let us set a bed for him there, and a table, and a stool, and a lampstand. And when he comes to us, he shall turn in there.

mkjv@2Kings:4:13 @ And he said to him, Say now to her, Behold, you have been thoughtful for us with all this care. What [is] to be done for you? Would you be spoken for to the king or to the commander of the army? And she answered, I dwell among my own people.

mkjv@2Kings:4:14 @ And he said, What then [is] to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Truly, she has no child, and her husband is old.

mkjv@2Kings:4:15 @ And he said, Call her! And he called her, and she stood in the door.

mkjv@2Kings:4:16 @ And he said, At this time, according to the time of life, you shall embrace a son. And she said, No, my lord, O man of God, do not lie to your handmaid.

mkjv@2Kings:4:22 @ And [she] called to her husband and said, Please send me one of the young men and one of the asses so that I may run to the man of God and come again.

mkjv@2Kings:4:23 @ And he said, Why will you go to him today? [It is] neither new moon nor sabbath. And she said, [It is] well.

mkjv@2Kings:4:24 @ And she saddled an ass and said to her servant, Drive and go forward! Do not hold back [your] riding for me unless I tell you.

mkjv@2Kings:4:25 @ And she went and came to the man of God, to Mount Carmel. And it happened when the man of God saw her afar off, he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, the Shunammite.

mkjv@2Kings:4:26 @ Please run now to meet her, and say to her, [Is it] well with you? [Is it] well with your husband? [Is it] well with the boy? And she answered, Well!

mkjv@2Kings:4:27 @ And she came to the man of God to the hill, and she caught him by the feet. And Gehazi came near to push her away. And the man of God said, Let her alone, for her soul [is] troubled within her. And the LORD has hidden [it] from me and has not told me.

mkjv@2Kings:4:28 @ And she said, Did I desire a son from my lord? Did I not say, Do not deceive me?

mkjv@2Kings:4:29 @ Then he said to Gehazi, Bind up your loins and take my staff in your hand, and go. If you meet any man, do not greet him. And if any greet you, do not answer him again. And lay my staff on the face of the child.

mkjv@2Kings:4:43 @ And his servant said, What? Should I set this before a hundred men? He said again, Give to the people so that they may eat, for so says the LORD, They shall eat and shall leave [some].

mkjv@2Kings:4:44 @ And he set before them, and they ate, and left [some] of it, according to the word of the LORD.

mkjv@2Kings:5:1 @ And Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Syria, was a great and exalted man with his master, because the LORD had given deliverance to Syria by him. He was also a mighty man, [but] a leper.

mkjv@2Kings:5:2 @ And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and captured a little girl out of the land of Israel. And she waited on Naaman's wife.

mkjv@2Kings:5:7 @ And it happened when the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, [Am] I God, to kill and to make alive, that this [man] sends to me to recover a man from his leprosy? For consider now, and see, for he is coiling himself toward me.

mkjv@2Kings:5:8 @ And it happened when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, he sent to the king, saying, Why have you torn your clothes? Let him now come to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.

mkjv@2Kings:5:9 @ And Naaman came with his horses and with his chariot, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.

mkjv@2Kings:5:10 @ And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall come to you, and you shall be clean.

mkjv@2Kings:5:11 @ But Naaman was angry, and went away. And he said, Behold, I said within myself, He will surely come out to me and stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, and strike his hand over the place and recover the leper.

mkjv@2Kings:5:12 @ [Are] not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? May I not wash in them, and be clean? And he turned and went away in a rage.

mkjv@2Kings:5:13 @ And his servants came near and spoke to him and said, My father, [if] the prophet had told you [to do] a great thing, would you not have done [it]? How much rather then, when he says to you, Wash and be clean?

mkjv@2Kings:5:14 @ And he went down and dipped seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God. And his flesh came again like the flesh of a little boy, and he was clean.

mkjv@2Kings:5:15 @ And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company. And he came and stood before him. And he said, Behold, now I know that [there is] no God in all the earth, but in Israel. And now please take a blessing from your servant.

mkjv@2Kings:5:16 @ But he said, [As] the LORD lives, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it, but he refused.

mkjv@2Kings:5:17 @ And Naaman said, Please shall there not then be given to your servant two mules' burden of earth? For your servant will from now on offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice to other gods, but to Jehovah.

mkjv@2Kings:5:18 @ In this thing may Jehovah pardon your servant, that when my master goes to the house of Rimmon to worship there, and he is supported by my hand, and I bow myself in the house of Rimmon; when I bow myself in the house of Rimmon, may Jehovah pardon your servant in this thing.

mkjv@2Kings:5:19 @ And he said to him, Go in peace. And he went away from him a little way.

mkjv@2Kings:5:20 @ And Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master has spared Naaman the Syrian, in not receiving at his hand that which he brought. But, [as] the LORD lives, I will run after him and take something from him.

mkjv@2Kings:5:21 @ And Gehazi followed after Naaman. And Naaman saw [him] running after him, and descended down from the chariot to meet him. And he said, [Is] all well?

mkjv@2Kings:5:22 @ And he said, All [is] well. My master has sent me, saying, Behold, this now, two young men from mount Ephraim of the sons of the prophets have come to me. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of clothing.

mkjv@2Kings:5:23 @ And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of clothing. And he laid [them] on two of his servants. And they carried them before him.

mkjv@2Kings:5:24 @ And he came to the hill, and he took from their hand and stowed them in the house. And he let the men go, and they departed.

mkjv@2Kings:5:25 @ And he went in and stood before his master. And Elisha said to him, Where [from], Gehazi? And he said, Your servant did not go here or there.

mkjv@2Kings:5:26 @ And he said to him, Did not my heart go [with you] when the man turned again from his chariot to meet you? Is it a time to receive silver and to receive clothing and olive-yards and vineyards and sheep and oxen and menservants and maidservants?

mkjv@2Kings:5:27 @ And the leprosy of Naaman shall cling to you and to your seed forever. And he went out from his presence as leprous as snow.

mkjv@2Kings:6:1 @ And the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, Behold now, the place where we live with you [is] too small for us.
