2 Kings 2:17 (KJV) King James Version

1 And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
2 And Elijah said unto Elisha, Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Bethel. And Elisha said unto him, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they went down to Bethel.
3 And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he said, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.
4 And Elijah said unto him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Jericho. And he said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they came to Jericho.
5 And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he answered, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.
6 And Elijah said unto him, Tarry, I pray thee, here; for the LORD hath sent me to Jordan. And he said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And they two went on.
7 And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood to view afar off: and they two stood by Jordan.
8 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.
9 And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.
10 And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so.
11 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
13 He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan;
14 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.
15 And when the sons of the prophets which were to view at 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.
16 And they said unto him, Behold now, there be with thy servants fifty strong men; let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master: lest peradventure the Spirit of the LORD hath taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some valley. And he said, Ye shall not send.
17 And when they urged him till he was ashamed, he said, Send. They sent therefore fifty men; and they sought three days, but found him not.
18 And when they came again to him, (for he tarried at Jericho,) he said unto them, Did I not say unto you, Go not?
19 And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Behold, I pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth: but the water is naught, and the ground barren.
20 And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him.
21 And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the LORD, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren land.
22 So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spake.
23 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.
24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.
25 And he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.
1 And it came to pass, H1961 when the LORD H3068 would take up H5927 H853 Elijah H452 into heaven H8064 by a whirlwind, H5591 that Elijah H452 went H1980 with Elisha H477 from H4480 Gilgal. H1537
2 And Elijah H452 said H559 unto H413 Elisha, H477 Tarry H3427 here, H6311 I pray thee; H4994 for H3588 the LORD H3068 hath sent H7971 me to H5704 Bethel. H1008 And Elisha H477 said H559 unto him, As the LORD H3068 liveth, H2416 and as thy soul H5315 liveth, H2416 I will not H518 leave H5800 thee . So they went down H3381 to Bethel. H1008
3 And the sons H1121 of the prophets H5030 that H834 were at Bethel H1008 came forth H3318 to H413 Elisha, H477 and said H559 unto H413 him, Knowest H3045 thou that H3588 the LORD H3068 will take away H3947 H853 thy master H113 from H4480 H5921 thy head H7218 today H3117 ? And he said, H559 Yea, H1571 I H589 know H3045 it ; hold ye your peace. H2814
4 And Elijah H452 said H559 unto him, Elisha, H477 tarry H3427 here, H6311 I pray thee; H4994 for H3588 the LORD H3068 hath sent H7971 me to Jericho. H3405 And he said, H559 As the LORD H3068 liveth, H2416 and as thy soul H5315 liveth, H2416 I will not H518 leave H5800 thee . So they came H935 to Jericho. H3405
5 And the sons H1121 of the prophets H5030 that H834 were at Jericho H3405 came H5066 to H413 Elisha, H477 and said H559 unto H413 him, Knowest H3045 thou that H3588 the LORD H3068 will take away H3947 H853 thy master H113 from H4480 H5921 thy head H7218 today H3117 ? And he answered, H559 Yea, H1571 I H589 know H3045 it ; hold ye your peace. H2814
6 And Elijah H452 said H559 unto him, Tarry, H3427 I pray thee, H4994 here; H6311 for H3588 the LORD H3068 hath sent H7971 me to Jordan. H3383 And he said, H559 As the LORD H3068 liveth, H2416 and as thy soul H5315 liveth, H2416 I will not H518 leave H5800 thee . And they two H8147 went on. H1980
7 And fifty H2572 men H376 of the sons H4480 H1121 of the prophets H5030 went, H1980 and stood H5975 to view H4480 H5048 afar off H4480 H7350 : and they two H8147 stood H5975 by H5921 Jordan. H3383
8 And Elijah H452 took H3947 H853 his mantle, H155 and wrapped it together, H1563 and smote H5221 H853 the waters, H4325 and they were divided H2673 hither H2008 and thither, H2008 so that they two H8147 went over H5674 on dry ground. H2724
9 And it came to pass, H1961 when they were gone over, H5674 that Elijah H452 said H559 unto H413 Elisha, H477 Ask H7592 what H4100 I shall do H6213 for thee, before H2962 I be taken away H3947 from H4480 H5973 thee . And Elisha H477 said, H559 I pray thee, H4994 let a double H8147 portion H6310 of thy spirit H7307 be H1961 upon H413 me.
10 And he said, H559 Thou hast asked H7592 a hard thing: H7185 nevertheless , if H518 thou see H7200 me when I am taken H3947 from H4480 H854 thee , it shall be H1961 so H3651 unto thee ; but if H518 not, H369 it shall not H3808 be H1961 so .
11 And it came to pass, H1961 as they H1992 still went on, H1980 and talked, H1696 that, behold, H2009 there appeared a chariot H7393 of fire, H784 and horses H5483 of fire, H784 and parted H6504 them both H8147 asunder; H996 and Elijah H452 went up H5927 by a whirlwind H5591 into heaven. H8064
12 And Elisha H477 saw H7200 it , and he H1931 cried, H6817 My father, H1 my father, H1 the chariot H7393 of Israel, H3478 and the horsemen H6571 thereof . And he saw H7200 him no H3808 more: H5750 and he took hold H2388 of his own clothes, H899 and rent H7167 them in two H8147 pieces. H7168
13 He took up H7311 also H853 the mantle H155 of Elijah H452 that H834 fell H5307 from H4480 H5921 him , and went back, H7725 and stood H5975 by H5921 the bank H8193 of Jordan; H3383
14 And he took H3947 H853 the mantle H155 of Elijah H452 that H834 fell H5307 from H4480 H5921 him , and smote H5221 H853 the waters, H4325 and said, H559 Where H346 is the LORD H3068 God H430 of Elijah H452 ? and when he H1931 also H637 had smitten H5221 H853 the waters, H4325 they parted H2673 hither H2008 and thither: H2008 and Elisha H477 went over. H5674
15 And when the sons H1121 of the prophets H5030 which H834 were to view H4480 H5048 at Jericho H3405 saw H7200 him , they said, H559 The spirit H7307 of Elijah H452 doth rest H5117 on H5921 Elisha. H477 And they came H935 to meet H7125 him , and bowed themselves H7812 to the ground H776 before him.
16 And they said H559 unto H413 him, Behold H2009 now, H4994 there be H3426 with H854 thy servants H5650 fifty H2572 strong H1121 H2428 men; H376 let them go, H1980 we pray thee, H4994 and seek H1245 H853 thy master: H113 lest peradventure H6435 the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 hath taken him up, H5375 and cast H7993 him upon some H259 mountain, H2022 or H176 into some H259 valley. H1516 And he said, H559 Ye shall not H3808 send. H7971
17 And when they urged H6484 him till H5704 he was ashamed, H954 he said, H559 Send. H7971 They sent H7971 therefore fifty H2572 men; H376 and they sought H1245 three H7969 days, H3117 but found H4672 him not. H3808
18 And when they came again H7725 to H413 him, (for he H1931 tarried H3427 at Jericho, H3405 ) he said H559 unto H413 them , Did I not H3808 say H559 unto H413 you, Go H1980 not H408 ?
19 And the men H376 of the city H5892 said H559 unto H413 Elisha, H477 Behold, H2009 I pray thee, H4994 the situation H4186 of this city H5892 is pleasant, H2896 as H834 my lord H113 seeth: H7200 but the water H4325 is naught, H7451 and the ground H776 barren. H7921
20 And he said, H559 Bring H3947 me a new H2319 cruse, H6746 and put H7760 salt H4417 therein. H8033 And they brought H3947 it to H413 him.
21 And he went forth H3318 unto H413 the spring H4161 of the waters, H4325 and cast H7993 the salt H4417 in there, H8033 and said, H559 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD, H3068 I have healed H7495 these H428 waters; H4325 there shall not H3808 be H1961 from thence H4480 H8033 any more H5750 death H4194 or barren H7921 land .
22 So the waters H4325 were healed H7495 unto H5704 this H2088 day, H3117 according to the saying H1697 of Elisha H477 which H834 he spoke. H1696
23 And he went up H5927 from thence H4480 H8033 unto Bethel: H1008 and as he H1931 was going up H5927 by the way, H1870 there came forth H3318 little H6996 children H5288 out of H4480 the city, H5892 and mocked H7046 him , and said H559 unto him , Go up, H5927 thou bald head; H7142 go up, H5927 thou bald head. H7142
24 And he turned H6437 back, H310 and looked H7200 on them , and cursed H7043 them in the name H8034 of the LORD. H3068 And there came forth H3318 two H8147 she bears H1677 out of H4480 the wood, H3293 and tore H1234 forty H705 and two H8147 children H3206 of H4480 them.
25 And he went H1980 from thence H4480 H8033 to H413 mount H2022 Carmel, H3760 and from thence H4480 H8033 he returned H7725 to Samaria. H8111
