2 Kings 7:16-20

16And the peopleH5971 wentH3318 out, and plunderedH962 the campH4264 of the Syrians. So a measure of fineH5560 flourH5560 wasH1961 sold for a shekelH8255, and two measures of barleyH8184 for a shekelH8255, according to the wordH1697 of Jehovah. 17And the kingH4428 appointedH6485 the captain on whose handH3027 he leanedH8172 to have the charge of the gateH8179: and the peopleH5971 trod upon him in the gateH8179, and he diedH4191 as the manH376 of GodH430 had saidH1696, who spake whenH834 the kingH4428 cameH3381 downH3381 to him. 18And it came to pass, as the manH376 of GodH430 had spokenH1696 to the kingH4428, sayingH559, Two measures of barleyH8184 for a shekelH8255, and a measure of fineH5560 flourH5560 for a shekelH8255, shall beH1961 to-morrow about this timeH6256 in the gateH8179 of SamariaH8111; 19and that captain answered the manH376 of GodH430, and saidH559, Now, behold, if Jehovah should makeH6213 windowsH699 in heavenH8064, might such a thingH1697 beH1961? and he saidH559, Behold, thou shalt seeH7200 it with thine eyesH5869, but shalt not eatH398 thereof: 20it came to pass even soH3651 unto him; for the peopleH5971 trod upon him in the gateH8179, and he diedH4191.
