Brenton's Septuagint (LXX) - Holy Name KJV

 4:1 ¶ And one of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried to Elisha{gr.Elisaie}, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant feared the Lord: and the creditor is come to take my two sons to be his servants.

 4:1 ¶ Now there criedºº a certainº womanº of the wivesºº of the sonsº of the prophetsº untoº Elisha,º saying,ºº Thy servantº my husbandº is dead;ºº and thouº knowestºº thatº thy servantº didº fearººº Yahweh:º and the creditorºº is comeºº to takeºº unto himº my twoº sonsº to be bondmen.º

 4:2 And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} said, What shall I do for thee? tell me what thou hast in the house. And she said, Thy servant has nothing in the house, except oil wherewith I anoint myself.

 4:2 And Elishaº saidºº untoº her, Whatº shall I doºº for thee? tellºº me, whatº hastº thou in the house?º And she said,ºº Thine handmaidº hath notº any thingº in the house,º saveºº a potº of oil.º

 4:3 And he said to her, Go, borrow for thyself vessels without of all thy neighbours, [even] empty vessels; borrow not a few.

 4:3 Then he said,ºº Go,ººº borrowºº thee vesselsº abroadºº ofºº allº thy neighbours,º [even] emptyº vessels;º borrow not a few.ººº

 4:4 And thou shalt go in and shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and thou shalt pour forth into these vessels, and remove that which is filled.

 4:4 And when thou art come in,ºº thou shalt shutºº the doorº uponº thee and uponº thy sons,º and shalt pour outºº intoº allº thoseº vessels,º and thou shalt set asideºº that which is full.º

 4:5 And she departed from him, and shut the door upon herself and upon her sons: they brought the vessels near to her, and she poured in until the vessels were filled.

 4:5 So she wentººº fromºº him, and shutºº the doorº uponº her and uponº her sons,º whoº broughtºº [the vessels] toº her; and sheº poured out.ºº

 4:6 And she said to her sons, Bring me yet a vessel. And they said to her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.

 4:6 And it came to pass,º when the vesselsº were full,ºº that she saidºº untoº her son,º Bringººº me yetº a vessel.º And he saidºº untoº her, [There is] notº a vesselº more.º And the oilº stayed.ºº

 4:7 And she came and told the man of God: and Elisha{gr.Elisaie} said, Go, and sell the oil, and thou shalt pay thy debts, and thou and thy sons shall live of the remaining oil.

 4:7 Then she cameºº and toldºº the manº of Elohim.º And he said,ºº Go,ººº sellººº the oil,º and payººº thy debt,º and liveºº thouº and thy childrenº of the rest.ºº

 4:8 ¶ And a day came, when Elisha{gr.Elisaie} passed over to Soman, and [there was] a great lady there, and she constrained him to eat bread: and it came to pass as often as he went into [the city, that] he turned aside to eat there.

 4:8 ¶ And it fellº on a day,º that Elishaº passedºº toº Shunem,º whereº [was] a greatº woman;º and she constrainedºº him to eatºº bread.º And [so] it was,º [that] as oftºº as he passed by,ºº he turnedºº inº thitherº to eatºº bread.º

 4:9 And the woman said to her husband, See now, I know that this [is] a holy man of God who comes over continually to us.

 4:9 And she saidºº untoº her husband,º Beholdº now,º I perceiveºº thatº thisº [is] an holyº manº of Elohim,º which passethºº byºº us continually.º

 4:10 Let us now make for him an upper chamber, a small place; and let us put there for him a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall come to pass that when he comes in to us, he shall turn in thither.

 4:10 Let us makeºº a littleº chamber,º I pray thee,º on the wall;º and let us setºº for him thereº a bed,º and a table,º and a stool,º and a candlestick:º and it shall be,º when he comethºº toº us, that he shall turnºº inº thither.º

 4:11 And a day came, and he went in thither, and turned aside into the upper chamber, and lay there.

 4:11 And it fellº on a day,º that he cameºº thither,º and he turnedºº intoº the chamber,º and layºº there.º

 4:12 And he said to Gehazi{gr.Giezi} his servant, Call me this Shunammite{gr.Somanite}. and he called her, and she stood before him.

 4:12 And he saidºº toº Gehaziº his servant,º Callºº thisº Shunammite.º And when he had calledºº her, she stoodºº beforeº him.

 4:13 And he said to him, Say now to her, Behold, thou hast taken all this trouble for us; what should I do for thee? Hast thou any request [to make] to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she said, I dwell in the midst of my people.

 4:13 And he saidºº unto him, Sayºº nowº untoº her, Behold,º thou hast been carefulºº forº us withº allº thisº care;º whatº [is] to be doneºº for thee? wouldestº thou be spokenºº for toº the king,º orº toº the captainº of the host?º And she answered,ºº Iº dwellºº amongº mine own people.º

 4:14 And he said to Gehazi{gr.Giezi}, What must we do for her? and Gehazi{gr.Giezi} his servant said, Indeed she has no son, and her husband [is] old.

 4:14 And he said,ºº Whatº then [is] to be doneºº for her? And Gehaziº answered,ºº Verilyº she hath noº child,º and her husbandº is old.ºº

 4:15 And he called her, and she stood by the door.

 4:15 And he said,ºº Callºº her. And when he had calledºº her, she stoodºº in the door.º

 4:16 And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} said to her, At this time [next year], as the season [is], thou [shalt be] alive, and embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, do not lie to thy servant.

 4:16 And he said,ºº About thisº season,º according to the timeº of life,º thouº shalt embraceºº a son.º And she said,ºº Nay,º my adon,º [thou] manº of Elohim,º do not lieººº unto thine handmaid.º

 4:17 And the woman conceived, and bore a son at the very time, as the season was, being alive, as Elisha{gr.Elisaie} said to her.

 4:17 And the womanº conceived,ºº and bareºº a sonº at thatº seasonº thatº Elishaº had saidºº untoº her, according to the timeº of life.º

 4:18 ¶ And the child grew: and it came to pass when he went out to his father to the reapers,

 4:18 ¶ And when the childº was grown,ºº it fellº on a day,º that he went outºº toº his fatherº toº the reapers.ºº

 4:19 that he said to his father, My head, my head. and [his father] said to a servant, carry him to his mother.

 4:19 And he saidºº untoº his father,º My head,º my head.º And he saidºº toº a lad,º Carryºº him toº his mother.º

 4:20 And he carried him to his mother, and he lay upon her knees till noon, and died.

 4:20 And when he had takenºº him, and broughtºº him toº his mother,º he satºº onº her kneesº tillº noon,º and [then] died.ºº

 4:21 And she carried him up and laid him on the bed of the man of god; and she shut the door upon him, and went out.

 4:21 And she went up,ºº and laidºº him onº the bedº of the manº of Elohim,º and shutºº [the door] uponº him, and went out.ºº

 4:22 And she called her husband, and said, Send now for me one of the young men, and one of the asses, and I will ride quickly to the man of God, and return.

 4:22 And she calledºº untoº her husband,º and said,ºº Sendºº me, I pray thee,º oneº ofº the young men,º and oneº of the asses,º that I may runºº toº the manº of Elohim,º and come again.ºº

 4:23 And he said, Why art thou going to him to-day? It is neither new moon, nor the Sabbath. And she said, [It is] well.

 4:23 And he said,ºº Whereforeº wilt thouº goºº toº him to day?º [it is] neitherº new moon,º norº sabbath.º And she said,ºº [It shall be] well.º

 4:24 And she saddled the ass, and said to her servant, Be quick, proceed: spare not on my account to ride, unless I shall tell thee. Go, and thou shalt proceed, and come to the man of God to mount Carmel.

 4:24 Then she saddledºº an ass,º and saidºº toº her servant,º Drive,ºº and go forward;ººº slackºº notº [thy] ridingºº for me, exceptºº I bidºº thee.

 4:25 And she rode and came to the man of God to the mountain: and it came to pass when Elisha{gr.Elisaie} saw her coming, that he said to Gehazi{gr.Giezi} his servant, See now, that Shunammite{gr.Somanite} comes.

 4:25 So she wentººº and cameºº untoº the manº of Elohimº toº mountº Carmel.º And it came to pass,º when the manº of Elohimº sawº her afar off,ºººº that he saidºº toº Gehaziº his servant,º Behold,º [yonder is] thatº Shunammite:º

 4:26 Now run to meet her, and thou shalt say, [Is it] well with thee? [is it] well with thy husband? [is it] well with the child? and she said, [It is] well.

 4:26 Runºº now,º I pray thee,º to meetººº her, and sayºº unto her, [Is it] wellº with thee? [is it] wellº with thy husband?º [is it] wellº with the child?º And she answered,ºº [It is] well.º

 4:27 And she came to Elisha{gr.Elisaie} to the mountain, and laid hold of his feet; and Gehazi{gr.Giezi} drew near to thrust her away. And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} said, Let her alone, for her soul [is] much grieved in her, and the Lord has hidden [it] from me, and has not told [it] me.

 4:27 And when she cameºº toº the manº of Elohimº toº the hill,º she caughtºº him by the feet:º but Gehaziº came nearºº to thrust her away.ºº And the manº of Elohimº said,ºº Let her alone;ºº forº her soulº [is] vexedºº within her: and Yahwehº hath hidºº [it] fromº me, and hath notº toldºº me.

 4:28 And she said, Did I ask a son of my lord? For did I not say, Do not deal deceitfully with me?

 4:28 Then she said,ºº Did I desireºº a sonº ofºº my adon?º did I notº say,ºº Do notº deceiveºº me?

 4:29 And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} said to Gehazi{gr.Giezi}, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thy hand, and go: if thou meet any man, thou shalt not salute him, and if a man salute thee thou shalt not answer him: and thou shalt lay my staff on the child's face.

 4:29 Then he saidºº to Gehazi,º Gird upºº thy loins,º and takeºº my staffº in thine hand,º and go thy way:ººº ifº thou meetºº any man,º saluteºº him not;º and ifº anyº saluteºº thee, answerº him notº again:ºº and layºº my staffº uponº the faceº of the child.º

 4:30 And the mother of the child said, [As] the Lord lives and [as] thy soul lives, I will not leave thee. And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} arose, and went after her.

 4:30 And the motherº of the childº said,ºº [As] Yahwehº liveth,º and [as] thy soulº liveth,º I will notº leaveºº thee. And he arose,ºº and followedºººº her.

 4:31 And Gehazi{gr.Giezi} went on before her, and laid his staff on the child's face: but there was neither voice nor any hearing. So he returned to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not awaked.

 4:31 And Gehaziº passed onºº beforeº them, and laidººº the staffº uponº the faceº of the child;º but [there was] neitherº voice,º norº hearing.º Wherefore he went againºº to meetººº him, and toldºº him, saying,ºº The childº is notº awaked.ºº

 4:32 And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} went into the house, and, behold, the dead child was laid upon his bed.

 4:32 And when Elishaº was comeºº into the house,º behold,º the childº was dead,ºº [and] laidºº uponº his bed.º

 4:33 And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} went into the house, and shut the door upon themselves, the two, and prayed to the Lord.

 4:33 He went inºº therefore, and shutºº the doorº uponº them twain,º and prayedºº untoº Yahweh.º

 4:34 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 bowed himself upon him, and the flesh of the child grew warm.

 4:34 And he went up,ºº and layºº uponº the child,º and putºº his mouthº uponº his mouth,º and his eyesº uponº his eyes,º and his handsº uponº his hands:º and he stretchedºº himself uponº the child; and the fleshº of the childº waxed warm.ºº

 4:35 And he returned, and walked up and down in the house: and he went up, and bowed himself on the child seven times; and the child opened his eyes.

 4:35 Then he returned,ºº and walkedººº in the houseº toºº and fro;ºº and went up,ºº and stretchedºº himself uponº him: and the childº sneezedººº sevenº times,º and the childº openedººº his eyes.º

 4:36 And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} cried out to Gehazi{gr.Giezi}, and said, Call this Shunammite{gr.Somanite}. So he called her, and she came in to him: and Elisha{gr.Elisaie} said, Take thy son.

 4:36 And he calledººº Gehazi,º and said,ºº Callººº thisº Shunammite.º So he calledºº her. And when she was comeº inºº untoº him, he said,ºº Take upºº thy son.º

 4:37 And the woman went in, and fell at his feet, and did obeisance [bowing] to the ground; and she took her son, and went out.

 4:37 Then she went in,ºº and fellºº atº his feet,º and bowedºº herselfº to the ground,º and took upººº her son,º and went out.ºº

 4:38 ¶ And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} returned to Gilgal{gr.Galgala}: and a famine [was] in the land; and the sons of the prophets sat before him: and Elisha{gr.Elisaie} said to his servant, Set on the great pot, and boil pottage for the sons of the prophets.

 4:38 ¶ And Elishaº came againºº to Gilgal:º and [there was] a dearthº in the land;º and the sonsº of the prophetsº [were] sittingºº beforeº him: and he saidºº unto his servant,º Setºº onº the greatº pot,º and seetheºº pottageº for the sonsº of the prophets.º

 4:39 And he went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a vine in the field, and gathered of it wild gourds, his garment full; and he cast it into the caldron of pottage, for they knew [them] not.

 4:39 And oneº went outºº intoº the fieldº to gatherºº herbs,º and foundºº a wildº vine,º and gatheredºº thereofº wildº gourdsº his lapº full,º and cameºº and shredºº [them] intoº the potº of pottage:º forº they knewºº [them] not.º

 4:40 And he poured it out for the men to eat: and it came to pass, when they were eating of the pottage, that lo! they cried out, and said, [There is] death in the pot, O man of God. And they could not eat.

 4:40 So they poured outºº for the menºº to eat.ºº And it came to pass,º as they were eatingºº of the pottage,ºº that theyº cried out,ºº and said,ºº O [thou] manº of Elohim,º [there is] deathº in the pot.º And they couldºº notº eatºº [thereof].

 4:41 And he said, Take meal, and cast it into the pot. And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} said to his servant Gehazi{gr.Giezi}, Pour out for the people, and let them eat. And there was no longer there any hurtful thing in the pot.

 4:41 But he said,ºº Then bringºº meal.º And he castºº [it] intoº the pot;º and he said,ºº Pour outºº for the people,º that they may eat.ºº And there wasº noº harmºº in the pot.º

 4:42 ¶ And there came a man over from Baetharisa, and brought to the man of God twenty barley loaves and cakes of figs, of the first-fruits. And he said, Give to the people, and let them eat.

 4:42 ¶ And there cameºº a manº from Baalshalisha,ºº and broughtºº the manº of Elohimº breadº of the firstfruits,º twentyº loavesº of barley,º and full ears of cornº in the huskº thereof. And he said,ºº Giveºº unto the people,º that they may eat.ºº

 4:43 And his servant said, Why should I set this before a hundred men? and he said, Give to the people, and let them eat; for thus saith the Lord, They shall eat and leave.

 4:43 And his servitorºº said,ºº What,º should I setºº thisº beforeº an hundredº men?º He saidº again,ºº Giveºº the people,º that they may eat:ºº forº thusº saithºº Yahweh,º They shall eat,ºº and shall leaveºº [thereof].

 4:44 And they ate and left, according to the word of the Lord.

 4:44 So he setºº [it] beforeº them, and they did eat,ºº and leftºº [thereof], according to the wordº of Yahweh.º
