2Kings:6:8-23




ylt@2Kings:6:8 @And the king of Aram hath been fighting against Israel, and taketh counsel with his servants, saying, 'At such and such a place [is] my encamping.'

ylt@2Kings:6:9 @And the man of God sendeth unto the king of Israel, saying, 'Take heed of passing by this place, for thither are the Aramaeans coming down;

ylt@2Kings:6:10 @and the king of Israel sendeth unto the place of which the man of God spake to him, and warned him, and he is preserved there not once nor twice.

ylt@2Kings:6:11 @And the heart of the king of Aram is tossed about concerning this thing, and he calleth unto his servants, and saith unto them, 'Do ye not declare to me who of us [is] for the king of Israel?'

ylt@2Kings:6:12 @And one of his servants saith, 'Nay, my lord, O king, for Elisha the prophet, who [is] in Israel, declareth to the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in the inner part of thy bed-chamber.'

ylt@2Kings:6:13 @And he saith, 'Go ye and see where he [is], and I send and take him;' and it is declared to him, saying, 'Lo -- in Dothan.'

ylt@2Kings:6:14 @And he sendeth thither horses and chariot, and a heavy force, and they come in by night, and go round against the city.

ylt@2Kings:6:15 @And the servant of the man of God riseth early, and goeth out, and lo, a force is surrounding the city, and horse and chariot, and his young man saith unto him, 'Alas! my lord, how do we do?'

ylt@2Kings:6:16 @And he saith, 'Fear not, for more [are] they who [are] with us than they who [are] with them.'

ylt@2Kings:6:17 @And Elisha prayeth, and saith, 'Jehovah, open, I pray Thee, his eyes, and he doth see;' and Jehovah openeth the eyes of the young man, and he seeth, and lo, the hill is full of horses and chariots of fire, round about Elisha.

ylt@2Kings:6:18 @And they come down unto it, and Elisha prayeth unto Jehovah, and saith, 'Smite, I pray Thee, this nation with blindness;' and He smiteth them with blindness, according to the word of Elisha.

ylt@2Kings:6:19 @And Elisha saith unto them, 'This [is] not the way, nor [is] this the city; come after me, and I lead you unto the man whom ye seek;' and he leadeth them to Samaria.

ylt@2Kings:6:20 @And it cometh to pass, at their coming in to Samaria, that Elisha saith, 'Jehovah, open the eyes of these, and they see;' and Jehovah openeth their eyes, and they see, and lo, in the midst of Samaria!

ylt@2Kings:6:21 @And the king of Israel saith unto Elisha, at his seeing them, 'Do I smite -- do I smite -- my father?'

ylt@2Kings:6:22 @And he saith, 'Thou dost not smite; those whom thou hast taken captive with thy sword and with thy bow art thou smiting? set bread and water before them, and they eat, and drink, and go unto their lord.'

ylt@2Kings:6:23 @And he prepareth for them great provision, and they eat and drink, and he sendeth them away, and they go unto their lord: and troops of Aram have not added any more to come in to the land of Israel.
