And fifty men of the sons of the prophets
went, and stood to view

went and stood at a distance, facing

Elisha as the two of them stood by the Jordan.
And
Elijah took his
mantle, and
wrapped it together, and
smote the waters, and they were divided
hither and thither, so that they two
went over on dry ground.
And
Elijah took his
cloak, rolled it up, and struck the waters, which parted to the right and to the left, so that the two of them crossed over on dry ground.

went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a
chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both
asunder; and

whirlwind into heaven.

Elijah? and when he also had
smitten the waters, they parted
hither and thither: and
Elisha went over.

cloak of
Elijah that had fallen from him and struck the waters. “Where now is the LORD, the God of
Elijah?” he asked. And when he had struck the waters, they parted to the right and to the left, and
Elisha crossed over.

Jericho saw him, they said, The spirit of
Elijah doth rest on
Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.

went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the LORD, I have

and
Elisha went out to the spring, cast the salt into it, and said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘I have
healed this water. No longer will it cause death or unfruitfulness.’”
And he
went up from thence unto
Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and
mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou
bald head; go up, thou
bald head.

went from thence to mount
Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.

And he sent a message to
Jehoshaphat king of Judah: “The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me to fight against Moab?” “I will go,” replied
Jehoshaphat. “I am like you, my people are your people, and my horses are your horses.”
So the king of Israel
went, and the king of Judah, and the king of
Edom: and they
fetched a compass of seven days’ journey: and there was no water for the host, and for the cattle that followed them.

Edom set out, and after they had traveled a
roundabout route for seven days, they had no water for their army or for their animals.

Edom went down to him.

And they beat down the cities, and on every good piece of land cast every man his stone, and filled it; and they stopped all the wells of water, and felled all the good trees: only in Kir-haraseth left they the stones thereof;
howbeit the slingers
went about it, and
smote it.
They destroyed the cities, and each man threw stones on every good field until it was covered. They stopped up every spring and cut down every good tree. Only Kir-haraseth was left with stones in place, but men with

And it fell on a day, that
Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she
constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as
oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.
One day

went and came unto the man of God to mount
Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her
afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold,
yonder is that Shunammite:
So she set out and
went to the man of God at Mount
Carmel. When the man of God saw her at a distance, he said to his servant Gehazi, “Look, there is the Shunammite woman.
And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Wherefore he
went again to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not
awaked.
Gehazi
went on
ahead of them and laid the staff on the boy’s face, but there was no sound or
response. So he
went back to meet
Elisha and told him, “The boy has not
awakened.”
He
went in therefore, and shut the door upon them
twain, and prayed unto the LORD.
So he went in, closed the door behind the two of them, and prayed to the LORD.
And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he stretched himself upon the child; and the flesh of the child waxed warm.
Then
Elisha got on the bed and lay on the boy, mouth to mouth, eye to eye, and hand to hand. As he stretched himself out over him, the boy’s body became warm.
Then he returned, and walked in the house to and
fro; and
went up, and stretched himself upon him: and the child
sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.

leper.

went away in a
rage.

Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not have washed in them and been
cleansed?” So he turned and
went away in a
rage.

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.

Naaman went down and
dipped himself in the Jordan seven times, according to the word of the man of God, and his flesh was restored and became like that of a little child, and he was clean.
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 earth, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant.
Then
Naaman and all his attendants
went back to the man of God, stood before him, and declared, “Now I know for sure that there is no God in all the earth except in Israel. So please accept a gift from your servant.”
But he
went in, and stood before his master. And
Elisha said unto him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant
went no
whither.
When Gehazi
went in and stood before his master,
Elisha asked him, “Gehazi, where have you been?” “Your servant did not go
anywhere,” he replied.
And he said unto him,
Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his
chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants?
But
Elisha questioned him, “Did not my spirit go with you when the man got down from his
chariot to meet you? Is this the time to accept money and clothing, olive groves and vineyards, sheep and oxen, menservants and maidservants?

leprosy therefore of

chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.

chariots, and a great army. They
went there by night and surrounded the city.
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?
When the servant of the man of God got up and
went out early in the morning, an army with horses and
chariots had surrounded the city. So he asked
Elisha, “Oh, my master, what are we to do?”
And he prepared great provision for them: and when they had eaten and
drunk, he sent them away, and they
went to their master. So the bands of Syria came no more into the land of Israel.
So the king prepared a great feast for them, and after they had finished eating and drinking, he sent them away, and they returned to their master. And the
Aramean raiders did not come into the land of Israel again.
And it came to pass after this, that Ben-
hadad king of Syria gathered all his host, and
went up, and besieged Samaria.
Some time later, Ben-
hadad king of
Aram assembled his entire army and marched up to
besiege Samaria.
And they rose up in the
twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the
uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there.
So they arose at
twilight and
went to the camp of the Arameans. But when they came to the outskirts of the camp, there was not a man to be found.
And when these lepers came to the
uttermost part of the camp, they
went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and
raiment, and
went and
hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and
went and
hid it.
When the lepers reached the edge of the camp, they
went into a tent to eat and drink. Then they carried off the silver, gold, and clothing, and
went and
hid them. On returning, they entered another tent, carried off some items from there, and
hid them.
So they came and called unto the porter of the city: and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but horses
tied, and
asses tied, and the tents as they were.
So they
went and called out to the gatekeepers of the city, saying, “We
went to the
Aramean camp and no one was there—not a trace—only
tethered horses and
donkeys, and the tents were
intact.”
And they
went after them unto Jordan: and, lo, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their
haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.
And they
tracked them as far as the Jordan, and indeed, the whole way was
littered with the clothing and
equipment the Arameans had thrown off in
haste. So the scouts returned and told the king.
And the people
went out, and
spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a
shekel, and two measures of barley for a
shekel, according to the word of the LORD.
Then the people
went out and
plundered the camp of the Arameans. It was then that a
seah of fine flour sold for a
shekel, and two seahs of barley sold for a
shekel, according to the word of the LORD.
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.
So the woman had proceeded to do as the man of God had
instructed. And she and her household lived as foreigners for seven years in the land of the Philistines.
