וַיִּשָּׂא הַנָּבִיא אֶת-נִבְלַת אִישׁ-הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַיַּנִּחֵהוּ אֶֽל-הַחֲמוֹר וַיְשִׁיבֵהוּ וַיָּבֹא אֶל-עִיר הַנָּבִיא הַזָּקֵן לִסְפֹּד וּלְקָבְרֽוֹ׃

And he sent again a captain of the third fifty with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and besought him, and said unto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life, and the life of these fifty thy servants, be precious in thy sight.
וַיְדַבֵּר אֵלָיו כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה יַעַן אֲשֶׁר-שָׁלַחְתָּ מַלְאָכִים לִדְרֹשׁ בְּבַעַל זְבוּב אֱלֹהֵי עֶקְרוֹן הַֽמִבְּלִי אֵין-אֱלֹהִים בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל לִדְרֹשׁ בִּדְבָרוֹ לָכֵן הַמִּטָּה אֲשֶׁר-עָלִיתָ שָּׁם לֹֽא-תֵרֵד מִמֶּנָּה כִּי-מוֹת תָּמֽוּת׃
And he said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Forasmuch as thou hast sent messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, is it not because there is no God in Israel to inquire of his word? therefore thou shalt not come down off that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.
וַיִּקַּח אֶת-אַדֶּרֶת אֵֽלִיָּהוּ אֲשֶׁר-נָֽפְלָה מֵֽעָלָיו וַיַּכֶּה אֶת-הַמַּיִם וַיֹּאמַר אַיֵּה יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי אֵֽלִיָּהוּ אַף-הוּא׀ וַיַּכֶּה אֶת-הַמַּיִם וַיֵּֽחָצוּ הֵנָּה וָהֵנָּה וַֽיַּעֲבֹר אֱלִישָֽׁע׃
And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is the LORD God of Elijah? and when he also had smitten the waters, they parted hither and thither: and Elisha went over.
וַתָּבֹא וַתַּגֵּד לְאִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַיֹּאמֶר לְכִי מִכְרִי אֶת-הַשֶּׁמֶן וְשַׁלְּמִי אֶת-(נשיכי) נִשְׁיֵךְ וְאַתְּ (בניכי) וּבָנַיִךְ תִֽחְיִי בַּנּוֹתָֽר׃
Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.
וַתֹּאמֶר אֶל-אִישָׁהּ הִנֵּה-נָא יָדַעְתִּי כִּי אִישׁ אֱלֹהִים קָדוֹשׁ הוּא עֹבֵר עָלֵינוּ תָּמִֽיד׃
And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually.
וַיֹּאמֶר לַמּוֹעֵד הַזֶּה כָּעֵת חַיָּה (אתי) אַתְּ חֹבֶקֶת בֵּן וַתֹּאמֶר אַל-אֲדֹנִי אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים אַל-תְּכַזֵּב בְּשִׁפְחָתֶֽךָ׃
And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid.
וַתַּעַל וַתַּשְׁכִּבֵהוּ עַל-מִטַּת אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַתִּסְגֹּר בַּֽעֲדוֹ וַתֵּצֵֽא׃
And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door upon him, and went out.
וַתִּקְרָא אֶל-אִישָׁהּ וַתֹּאמֶר שִׁלְחָה נָא לִי אֶחָד מִן-הַנְּעָרִים וְאַחַת הָֽאֲתֹנוֹת וְאָרוּצָה עַד-אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וְאָשֽׁוּבָה׃
And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.
וַתֵּלֶךְ וַתָּבֹא אֶל-אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֶל-הַר הַכַּרְמֶל וַיְהִי כִּרְאוֹת אִישׁ-הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֹתָהּ מִנֶּגֶד וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל-גֵּֽיחֲזִי נַֽעֲרוֹ הִנֵּה הַשּֽׁוּנַמִּית הַלָּֽז׃
So she went and came unto the man of God to mount Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw off, her afar that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is that Shunammite:
וַתָּבֹא אֶל-אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֶל-הָהָר וַֽתַּחֲזֵק בְּרַגְלָיו וַיִּגַּשׁ גֵּֽיחֲזִי לְהָדְפָהּ וַיֹּאמֶר אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים הַרְפֵּה-לָהּ כִּֽי-נַפְשָׁהּ מָֽרָה-לָהּ וַֽיהוָה הֶעְלִים מִמֶּנִּי וְלֹא הִגִּיד לִֽי׃
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 hath hid it from me, and hath not told me.
וַיִּֽצְקוּ לַֽאֲנָשִׁים לֶֽאֱכוֹל וַיְהִי כְּאָכְלָם מֵֽהַנָּזִיד וְהֵמָּה צָעָקוּ וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ מָוֶת בַּסִּיר אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וְלֹא יָֽכְלוּ לֶֽאֱכֹֽל׃
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 thou man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof.
וְאִישׁ בָּא מִבַּעַל שָׁלִשָׁה וַיָּבֵא לְאִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים לֶחֶם בִּכּוּרִים עֶשְׂרִֽים-לֶחֶם שְׂעֹרִים וְכַרְמֶל בְּצִקְלֹנוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר תֵּן לָעָם וְיֹאכֵֽלוּ׃
And there came a man from Baal-shalisha, and brought the man of God bread of the firstfruits, twenty loaves of barley, and full ears of corn in the husk thereof. And he said, Give unto the people, that they may eat.
וַיְהִי כִּקְרֹא מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת-הַסֵּפֶר וַיִּקְרַע בְּגָדָיו וַיֹּאמֶר הַאֱלֹהִים אָנִי לְהָמִית וּֽלְהַחֲיוֹת כִּי-זֶה שֹׁלֵחַ אֵלַי לֶֽאֱסֹף אִישׁ מִצָּֽרַעְתּוֹ כִּי אַךְ-דְּעוּ-נָא וּרְאוּ כִּֽי-מִתְאַנֶּה הוּא לִֽי׃
And it came to pass, when the king of Israel had read the letter, that he rent his clothes, and said, Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man doth send unto me to recover a man of his leprosy? wherefore consider, I pray you, and see how he seeketh a quarrel against me.
וַיְהִי כִּשְׁמֹעַ׀ אֱלִישָׁע אִישׁ-הָֽאֱלֹהִים כִּֽי-קָרַע מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת-בְּגָדָיו וַיִּשְׁלַח אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ לֵאמֹר לָמָּה קָרַעְתָּ בְּגָדֶיךָ יָבֹֽא-נָא אֵלַי וְיֵדַע כִּי יֵשׁ נָבִיא בְּיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And it was so, when Elisha the man of God had heard that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, Wherefore hast thou rent thy clothes? let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.
וַיִּקְצֹף נַֽעֲמָן וַיֵּלַךְ וַיֹּאמֶר הִנֵּה אָמַרְתִּי אֵלַי׀ יֵצֵא יָצוֹא וְעָמַד וְקָרָא בְּשֵׁם-יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו וְהֵנִיף יָדוֹ אֶל-הַמָּקוֹם וְאָסַף הַמְּצֹרָֽע׃
But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, 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.
וַיֵּרֶד וַיִּטְבֹּל בַּיַּרְדֵּן שֶׁבַע פְּעָמִים כִּדְבַר אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַיָּשָׁב בְּשָׂרוֹ כִּבְשַׂר נַעַר קָטֹן וַיִּטְהָֽר׃
Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.
וַיָּשָׁב אֶל-אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים הוּא וְכָֽל-מַחֲנֵהוּ וַיָּבֹא וַיַּֽעֲמֹד לְפָנָיו וַיֹּאמֶר הִנֵּה-נָא יָדַעְתִּי כִּי אֵין אֱלֹהִים בְּכָל-הָאָרֶץ כִּי אִם-בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל וְעַתָּה קַח-נָא בְרָכָה מֵאֵת עַבְדֶּֽךָ׃
And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him: and he said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant.
וַיֹּאמֶר נַֽעֲמָן וָלֹא יֻתַּן-נָא לְעַבְדְּךָ מַשָּׂא צֶֽמֶד-פְּרָדִים אֲדָמָה כִּי לֽוֹא-יַעֲשֶׂה עוֹד עַבְדְּךָ עֹלָה וָזֶבַח לֵֽאלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים כִּי אִם-לַֽיהוָֽה׃
And Naaman said, Shall there not then, I pray thee, be given to thy servant two mules' burden of earth? for thy servant will henceforth offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice unto other gods, but unto the LORD.
וַיֹּאמֶר גֵּֽיחֲזִי נַעַר אֱלִישָׁע אִישׁ-הָֽאֱלֹהִים הִנֵּה׀ חָשַׂךְ אֲדֹנִי אֶֽת-נַעֲמָן הָֽאֲרַמִּי הַזֶּה מִקַּחַת מִיָּדוֹ אֵת אֲשֶׁר-הֵבִיא חַי-יְהוָה כִּֽי-אִם-רַצְתִּי אַֽחֲרָיו וְלָֽקַחְתִּי מֵֽאִתּוֹ מְאֽוּמָה׃
But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master hath spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought: but, as the LORD liveth, I will run after him, and take somewhat of him.
וַיֹּאמֶר אִישׁ-הָֽאֱלֹהִים אָנָה נָפָל וַיַּרְאֵהוּ אֶת-הַמָּקוֹם וַיִּקְצָב-עֵץ וַיַּשְׁלֶךְ-שָׁמָּה וַיָּצֶף הַבַּרְזֶֽל׃
And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim.
וַיִּשְׁלַח אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֶל-מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל לֵאמֹר הִשָּׁמֶר מֵֽעֲבֹר הַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה כִּי-שָׁם אֲרָם נְחִתִּֽים׃
And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying, Beware that thou pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are come down.
וַיִּשְׁלַח מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶֽל-הַמָּקוֹם אֲשֶׁר אָֽמַר-לוֹ אִישׁ-הָֽאֱלֹהִים (והזהירה) וְהִזְהִירוֹ וְנִשְׁמַר שָׁם לֹא אַחַת וְלֹא שְׁתָּֽיִם׃
And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him and warned him of, and saved himself there, not once nor twice.
וַיַּשְׁכֵּם מְשָׁרֵת אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים לָקוּם וַיֵּצֵא וְהִנֵּה-חַיִל סוֹבֵב אֶת-הָעִיר וְסוּס וָרָכֶב וַיֹּאמֶר נַֽעֲרוֹ אֵלָיו אֲהָהּ אֲדֹנִי אֵיכָה נַֽעֲשֶֽׂה׃
And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?
וַיֹּאמֶר כֹּֽה-יַעֲשֶׂה-לִּי אֱלֹהִים וְכֹה יוֹסִף אִֽם-יַעֲמֹד רֹאשׁ אֱלִישָׁע בֶּן-שָׁפָט עָלָיו הַיּֽוֹם׃
Then he said, God do so and more also to me, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat shall stand on him this day.
וַיַּעַן הַשָּׁלִישׁ אֲשֶׁר-לַמֶּלֶךְ נִשְׁעָן עַל-יָדוֹ אֶת-אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַיֹּאמַר הִנֵּה יְהוָה עֹשֶׂה אֲרֻבּוֹת בַּשָּׁמַיִם הֲיִֽהְיֶה הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה וַיֹּאמֶר הִנְּכָה רֹאֶה בְּעֵינֶיךָ וּמִשָּׁם לֹא תֹאכֵֽל׃
Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.
וְהַמֶּלֶךְ הִפְקִיד אֶת-הַשָּׁלִישׁ אֲשֶׁר-נִשְׁעָן עַל-יָדוֹ עַל-הַשַּׁעַר וַיִּרְמְסֻהוּ הָעָם בַּשַּׁעַר וַיָּמֹת כַּֽאֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר בְּרֶדֶת הַמֶּלֶךְ אֵלָֽיו׃
And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down to him.
וַיְהִי כְּדַבֵּר אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ לֵאמֹר סָאתַיִם שְׂעֹרִים בְּשֶׁקֶל וּֽסְאָה-סֹלֶת בְּשֶׁקֶל יִֽהְיֶה כָּעֵת מָחָר בְּשַׁעַר שֹֽׁמְרֽוֹן׃
And it came to pass as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be to morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria:
וַיַּעַן הַשָּׁלִישׁ אֶת-אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַיֹּאמַר וְהִנֵּה יְהוָה עֹשֶׂה אֲרֻבּוֹת בַּשָּׁמַיִם הֲיִֽהְיֶה כַּדָּבָר הַזֶּה וַיֹּאמֶר הִנְּךָ רֹאֶה בְּעֵינֶיךָ וּמִשָּׁם לֹא תֹאכֵֽל׃
And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if the LORD should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.
וַתָּקָם הָֽאִשָּׁה וַתַּעַשׂ כִּדְבַר אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַתֵּלֶךְ הִיא וּבֵיתָהּ וַתָּגָר בְּאֶֽרֶץ-פְּלִשְׁתִּים שֶׁבַע שָׁנִֽים׃
And the woman arose, and did after the saying of the man of God: and she went with her household, and sojourned in the land of the Philistines seven years.
וְהַמֶּלֶךְ מְדַבֵּר אֶל-גֵּחֲזִי נַעַר אִישׁ-הָֽאֱלֹהִים לֵאמֹר סַפְּרָה-נָּא לִי אֵת כָּל-הַגְּדֹלוֹת אֲשֶׁר-עָשָׂה אֱלִישָֽׁע׃
And the king talked with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, Tell me, I pray thee, all the great things that Elisha hath done.
וַיָּבֹא אֱלִישָׁע דַּמֶּשֶׂק וּבֶן-הֲדַד מֶֽלֶךְ-אֲרָם חֹלֶה וַיֻּגַּד-לוֹ לֵאמֹר בָּא אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים עַד-הֵֽנָּה׃
And Elisha came to Damascus; and Ben-hadad the king of Syria was sick; and it was told him, saying, The man of God is come hither.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ אֶל-חֲזָהאֵל קַח בְּיָֽדְךָ מִנְחָה וְלֵךְ לִקְרַאת אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וְדָֽרַשְׁתָּ אֶת-יְהוָה מֵֽאוֹתוֹ לֵאמֹר הַאֶֽחְיֶה מֵֽחֳלִי זֶֽה׃
And the king said unto Hazael, Take a present in thine hand, and go, meet the man of God, and inquire of the LORD by him, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?
וַיַּֽעֲמֵד אֶת-פָּנָיו וַיָּשֶׂם עַד-בֹּשׁ וַיֵּבְךְּ אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
And he settled his countenance stedfastly, until he was ashamed: and the man of God wept.
וַיָּקָם וַיָּבֹא הַבַּיְתָה וַיִּצֹק הַשֶּׁמֶן אֶל-רֹאשׁוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל מְשַׁחְתִּיךָ לְמֶלֶךְ אֶל-עַם יְהוָה אֶל-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And he arose, and went into the house; and he poured the oil on his head, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I have anointed thee king over the people of the LORD, even over Israel.
וְיֵהוּא לֹא שָׁמַר לָלֶכֶת בְּתֽוֹרַת-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּכָל-לְבָבוֹ לֹא סָר מֵעַל חַטֹּאות יָֽרָבְעָם אֲשֶׁר הֶֽחֱטִיא אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD God of Israel with all his heart: for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, which made Israel to sin.
וַיִּקְצֹף עָלָיו אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַיֹּאמֶר לְהַכּוֹת חָמֵשׁ אוֹ-שֵׁשׁ פְּעָמִים אָז הִכִּיתָ אֶת-אֲרָם עַד-כַּלֵּה וְעַתָּה שָׁלֹשׁ פְּעָמִים תַּכֶּה אֶת-אֲרָֽם׃
And the man of God was wroth with him, and said, Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times; then hadst thou smitten Syria till thou hadst consumed it: whereas now thou shalt smite Syria but thrice.
הוּא הֵשִׁיב אֶת-גְּבוּל יִשְׂרָאֵל מִלְּבוֹא חֲמָת עַד-יָם הָֽעֲרָבָה כִּדְבַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר בְּיַד-עַבְדּוֹ יוֹנָה בֶן-אֲמִתַּי הַנָּבִיא אֲשֶׁר מִגַּת הַחֵֽפֶר׃
He restored the coast of Israel from the entering of Hamath unto the sea of the plain, according to the word of the LORD God of Israel, which he spake by the hand of his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, the prophet, which was of Gath-hepher.
בֶּן-עֶשְׂרִים שָׁנָה אָחָז בְּמָלְכוֹ וְשֵׁשׁ-עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָה מָלַךְ בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם וְלֹֽא-עָשָׂה הַיָּשָׁר בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו כְּדָוִד אָבִֽיו׃
Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and did not that which was right in the sight of the LORD his God, like David his father.
וַיְהִי כִּֽי-חָטְאוּ בְנֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל לַֽיהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶם הַמַּֽעֲלֶה אֹתָם מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם מִתַּחַת יַד פַּרְעֹה מֶֽלֶךְ-מִצְרָיִם וַיִּֽירְאוּ אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִֽים׃
For so it was, that the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, which had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,
וַיְחַפְּאוּ בְנֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל דְּבָרִים אֲשֶׁר לֹא-כֵן עַל-יְהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶם וַיִּבְנוּ לָהֶם בָּמוֹת בְּכָל-עָרֵיהֶם מִמִּגְדַּל נֽוֹצְרִים עַד-עִיר מִבְצָֽר׃
And the children of Israel did secretly those things that were not right against the LORD their God, and they built them high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
וְלֹא שָׁמֵעוּ וַיַּקְשׁוּ אֶת-עָרְפָּם כְּעֹרֶף אֲבוֹתָם אֲשֶׁר לֹא הֶֽאֱמִינוּ בַּֽיהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶֽם׃
Notwithstanding they would not hear, but hardened their necks, like to the neck of their fathers, that did not believe in the LORD their God.
וַיַּֽעַזְבוּ אֶת-כָּל-מִצְוֹת יְהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶם וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ לָהֶם מַסֵּכָה (שנים) שְׁנֵי עֲגָלִים וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ אֲשֵׁירָה וַיִּֽשְׁתַּחֲווּ לְכָל-צְבָא הַשָּׁמַיִם וַיַּֽעַבְדוּ אֶת-הַבָּֽעַל׃
And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.
גַּם-יְהוּדָה לֹא שָׁמַר אֶת-מִצְוֹת יְהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶם וַיֵּלְכוּ בְּחֻקּוֹת יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר עָשֽׂוּ׃
Also Judah kept not the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.
וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ לְמֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר לֵאמֹר הַגּוֹיִם אֲשֶׁר הִגְלִיתָ וַתּוֹשֶׁב בְּעָרֵי שֹֽׁמְרוֹן לֹא יָֽדְעוּ אֶת-מִשְׁפַּט אֱלֹהֵי הָאָרֶץ וַיְשַׁלַּח-בָּם אֶת-הָֽאֲרָיוֹת וְהִנָּם מְמִיתִים אוֹתָם כַּֽאֲשֶׁר אֵינָם יֹֽדְעִים אֶת-מִשְׁפַּט אֱלֹהֵי הָאָֽרֶץ׃
Wherefore they spake to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which thou hast removed, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the God of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.
וַיְצַו מֶֽלֶךְ-אַשּׁוּר לֵאמֹר הֹלִיכוּ שָׁמָּה אֶחָד מֵהַכֹּֽהֲנִים אֲשֶׁר הִגְלִיתֶם מִשָּׁם וְיֵֽלְכוּ וְיֵשְׁבוּ שָׁם וְיֹרֵם אֶת-מִשְׁפַּט אֱלֹהֵי הָאָֽרֶץ׃
Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry thither one of the priests whom ye brought from thence; and let them go and dwell there, and let him teach them the manner of the God of the land.
וַיִּֽהְיוּ עֹשִׂים גּוֹי גּוֹי אֱלֹהָיו וַיַּנִּיחוּ׀ בְּבֵית הַבָּמוֹת אֲשֶׁר עָשׂוּ הַשֹּׁמְרֹנִים גּוֹי גּוֹי בְּעָרֵיהֶם אֲשֶׁר הֵם יֹֽשְׁבִים שָֽׁם׃
Howbeit every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelt.
וְהָֽעַוִּים עָשׂוּ נִבְחַז וְאֶת-תַּרְתָּק וְהַֽסְפַרְוִים שֹֽׂרְפִים אֶת-בְּנֵיהֶם בָּאֵשׁ לְאַדְרַמֶּלֶךְ וַֽעֲנַמֶּלֶךְ (אלה) אֱלֹהֵי (ספרים) סְפַרְוָֽיִם׃
And the Avites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burnt their children in fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
אֶת-יְהוָה הָיוּ יְרֵאִים וְאֶת-אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶם הָיוּ עֹֽבְדִים כְּמִשְׁפַּט הַגּוֹיִם אֲשֶׁר-הִגְלוּ אֹתָם מִשָּֽׁם׃
They feared the LORD, and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations whom they carried away from thence.
וַיִּכְרֹת יְהוָה אִתָּם בְּרִית וַיְצַוֵּם לֵאמֹר לֹא תִֽירְאוּ אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים וְלֹֽא-תִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לָהֶם וְלֹא תַֽעַבְדוּם וְלֹא תִזְבְּחוּ לָהֶֽם׃
With whom the LORD had made a covenant, and charged them, saying, Ye shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them:
וְאֶת-הַֽחֻקִּים וְאֶת-הַמִּשְׁפָּטִים וְהַתּוֹרָה וְהַמִּצְוָה אֲשֶׁר כָּתַב לָכֶם תִּשְׁמְרוּן לַֽעֲשׂוֹת כָּל-הַיָּמִים וְלֹא תִֽירְאוּ אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִֽים׃
And the statutes, and the ordinances, and the law, and the commandment, which he wrote for you, ye shall observe to do for evermore; and ye shall not fear other gods.
וְהַבְּרִית אֲשֶׁר-כָּרַתִּי אִתְּכֶם לֹא תִשְׁכָּחוּ וְלֹא תִֽירְאוּ אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִֽים׃
And the covenant that I have made with you ye shall not forget; neither shall ye fear other gods.
כִּי אִֽם-אֶת-יְהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶם תִּירָאוּ וְהוּא יַצִּיל אֶתְכֶם מִיַּד כָּל-אֹֽיְבֵיכֶֽם׃
But the LORD your God ye shall fear; and he shall deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.
בַּֽיהוָה אֱלֹהֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל בָּטָח וְאַֽחֲרָיו לֹֽא-הָיָה כָמֹהוּ בְּכֹל מַלְכֵי יְהוּדָה וַֽאֲשֶׁר הָיוּ לְפָנָֽיו׃
He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him.
