lesserot - 2Kings:6:24-7:2

lesserot@2Kings:6:24 @ And it came to pass after this, that Benhadad the king of Syria assembled all his camp, and went up, and besieged Samaria.

lesserot@2Kings:6:25 @ And there was a great famine in Samaria; and, behold, they besieged it, until an asss head was sold for eighty pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a kab of doves dung for five pieces of silver.

lesserot@2Kings:6:26 @ And it happened as the king of Israel was passing along upon the wall, that a woman cried unto him, saying, Help, my Lord, O king.

lesserot@2Kings:6:27 @ And he said, If the Lord do not help thee, whence shall I help thee? shall it be out of the threshingfloor, or out of the winepress?

lesserot@2Kings:6:28 @ And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she said, This woman said unto me, Give up thy son, that we may eat him today, and my son we will eat tomorrow.

lesserot@2Kings:6:29 @ So we boiled my son, and ate him; but when I said unto her on the next day, Give up thy son, that we may eat him: she hid her son.

lesserot@2Kings:6:30 @ And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he rent his clothes, as he was passing along upon the wall: and the people looked, and, behold, he had sackcloth beneath upon his flesh.

lesserot@2Kings:6:31 @ Then said he, May God do so unto me and continue so yet farther, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat shall remain on him this day.

lesserot@2Kings:6:32 @ But Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him; and he sent a man from before him; but before the messenger could yet come to him, he said to the elders, See ye how this son of the murderer hath sent to remove my head? look, when the messenger cometh, shut the door, and hold him back with the door: is not the sound of his masters feet behind him?

lesserot@2Kings:6:33 @ And while he was yet speaking with them, behold, the messenger came down unto him: and he said, Behold, this evil is of the Lord; what shall I hope for in the Lord any longer?

lesserot@2Kings:7:1 @ Then said Elisha, Hear ye the word of the Lord: Thus hath said the Lord, About this time tomorrow a seah of fine flour shall be sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.

lesserot@2Kings:7:2 @ Then answered the lord of the king, on whose hand he used to lean, the man of God, and said, Behold, will the Lord make windows in the heavens, that this thing shall be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thy eyes, but thereof shalt thou not eat.
