@1Kings:16:1 @ Then came the word of the Lord to Jehu the son of Chanani against Basha, saying,
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:2 @ Forasmuch as I lifted thee up out of the dust, and I set thee as prince over my people Israel; and thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and hast induced my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins:
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:3 @ Behold, I will sweep out after Basha, and after his house; and I will render thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat;
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:4 @ Him that dieth of Basha in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth of his in the field shall the fowls of the heavens eat.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:5 @ And the rest of the acts of Basha, and what he did, and his mighty deeds, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:6 @ And Basha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Thirzah: and Elah his son became king in his stead.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:7 @ And also by the hand of Jehu the son of Chanani, the prophet, came the word of the Lord against Basha, and against his house, both for all the evil that he did in the eyes of the Lord, to provoke him to anger with the work of his hands, thus being like the house of Jeroboam; and because he had killed him.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:8 @ In the twenty and sixth year of Assa the king of Judah became Elah the son of Basha king over Israel in Thirzah, two years.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:9 @ And there conspired against him his servant Zimri, captain of half the chariots, as he was in Thirzah, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, who was set over the house in Thirzah.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:10 @ And Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him, in the twenty and seventh year of Assa the king of Judah, and became king in his stead.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:11 @ And it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, that he slew all the house of Basha: he left him not a single male, neither of his kinsfolks, nor of his friends.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:12 @ Thus did Zimri exterminate all the house of Basha, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken against Basha by the agency of Jehu the prophet,
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:13 @ For all the sins of Basha, and the sins of Elah his son, by which they had sinned, and by which they had induced Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord the God of Israel to anger with their vanities.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:14 @ Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:15 @ In the twenty and seventh year of Assa the king of Judah did Zimri reign seven days in Thirzah: and the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:16 @ And when the people that were encamped heard it said, Zimri hath conspired, and hath also slain the king: all Israel made Omri, the captain of the army, king over Israel on that day in the camp.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:17 @ And Omri went up, and all Israel with him from Gibbethon, and they besieged Thirzah.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:18 @ And it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was captured, that he went into the stronghold of the kings house, and burnt the kings house over him with fire, and he died;
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:19 @ For his sins which he had sinned, in doing what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, to walk in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did, to induce Israel to sin.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:20 @ And the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his conspiracy that he contrived, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:21 @ At that time were the people of Israel divided into two parts: one half of the people followed Thibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; and the other half followed Omri.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:22 @ But the people that followed Omri prevailed against the people that followed Thibni the son of Ginath: and Thibni died, and Omri became king.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:23 @ In the thirty and first year of Assa the king of Judah became Omri king over Israel, twelve years; in Thirzah he reigned six years.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:24 @ And he bought the mount Samaria, of Shemer for two talents of silver, and built on the mount, and called the name of the city which he had built, after the name of Shemer, the Lord of the mount, Samaria.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:25 @ And Omri did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and did worse than all that were before him.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:26 @ And he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and in his sin wherewith he induced Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord God of Israel to anger with their vanities.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:27 @ Now the rest of the acts of Omri which he did, and his mighty deeds that he displayed, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:28 @ And Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria: and Achab his son became king in his stead.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:29 @ And Achab the son of omri became king over Israel in the thirty and eighth year of Assa the king of Judah; and Achab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty and two years.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:30 @ And Achab the son of Omri did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord more than all that had been before him.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:31 @ And it came to pass, as if it had been too light a thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he took for wife Izebel the daughter of Ethbaal the king of the Zidonians, and went and served Baal, and worshipped him.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:32 @ And he erected an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he had built in Samaria.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:33 @ And Achab made a grove; and Achab did yet more, so as to provoke the Lord the God of Israel to anger, than all the kings of Israel that had been before him.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:16:34 @ In his days did Chiel the Bethelite build Jericho: with Abiram his firstborn laid he the foundation thereof, and with Segub his youngest son set he up the gates thereof, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by means of Joshua the son of Nun.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:1 @ Then said Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilad, unto Achab, As the Lord the God of Israel liveth, before whom I have stood, there shall not be in these years dew or rain, except according to my word.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:2 @ And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:3 @ Go away from here, and turn thyself eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Kerith, which is to the east of the Jordan.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:4 @ And it shall be, that out of the brook shalt thou drink; and the ravens have I ordained to sustain thee there.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:5 @ And he went and did according to the word of the Lord; and he went and remained by the brook Kerith, that is to the east of the Jordan.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:6 @ And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening: and out of the brook he used to drink.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:7 @ And it came to pass after a while that the brook dried up; because there had been no rain in the land.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:8 @ And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:9 @ Arise, go unto Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and remain there: behold, I have ordained there a widowwoman to sustain thee.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:10 @ So he arose and went to Zarephath; and when he came to the gate of the city, behold, there was there a widowwoman gathering sticks of wood: and he called her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:11 @ And as she went to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thy hand.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:12 @ And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have nothing baked, but a handful of meal in a jar, and a little oil in a cruise: and, behold, I am gathering a couple of sticks, that I may go in and prepare it for me and my son; and when we have eaten it, we shall have to die.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:13 @ And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said; but make me thereof a little cake at first, and bring it out unto me, and for thee and for thy son shalt thou prepare afterward.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:14 @ For thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, The jar of meal shall not fail, neither shall the cruise of oil diminish, until the day that the Lord giveth rain upon the face of the earth.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:15 @ And she went and did according to the word of Elijah: and she, and he, and her household, did eat days.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:16 @ The jar of meal failed not, nor did the cruise of oil diminish, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken through means of Elijah.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:17 @ And it came to pass after these events, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness became very severe, until that at length there was no breath left in him.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:18 @ And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O man of God? thou art come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son!
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:19 @ And he said unto her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into the upper chamber, in which he abode, and he laid him upon his own bed.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:20 @ And he called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:21 @ And he stretched himself out over the child three times, and called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, let, I pray thee, the soul of this child return again within him.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:22 @ And the Lord listened to the voice of Elijah: and the soul of the child returned into him, and he revived.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:23 @ And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the upper chamber into the house, and gave him unto his mother; and Elijah said, See, thy son liveth.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:17:24 @ And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this do I know, that thou art a man of God, and the word of the Lord in thy mouth is truth.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Kings:18:1 @ And it lasted many days, when the word of the Lord came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, show thyself unto Achab; and I will give rain upon the face of the earth.
