2 Kings 7:11-20

11The gatekeepersH7778 calledH7121 and toldH5046 it withinH6441 the king’sH4428 householdH1004. 12Then the kingH4428 aroseH6965 in the nightH3915 and saidH559 to his servantsH5650, “I will nowH4994 tellH5046 you whatH834 the ArameansH758 have doneH6213 to us. They knowH3045 that 1we are hungryH7457; therefore they have goneH3318 from the campH4264 2to hideH2247 themselves in the fieldH7704, sayingH559, ‘WhenH3588 they comeH3318 out of the cityH5892, we will captureH8610 them aliveH2416 and getH935 into the cityH5892.’” 13OneH259 of his servantsH5650 saidH559, “PleaseH4994, let some men takeH3947 fiveH2568 of the horsesH5483 which remainH7604, whichH834 are leftH7604 3in the city. BeholdH2009, they will be in any case like allH3605 the multitudeH1995 of IsraelH3478 whoH834 are leftH7604 in it; beholdH2009, they will be in any case like allH3605 the multitudeH1995 of IsraelH3478 whoH834 have already perishedH8552, so let us sendH7971 and seeH7200.” 14They tookH3947 therefore twoH8147 chariotsH7393 with horsesH5483, and the kingH4428 sentH7971 afterH310 the armyH4264 of the ArameansH758, sayingH559, “GoH1980 and seeH7200.” 15They wentH1980 afterH310 them to the JordanH3383, and beholdH2009, allH3605 the wayH1870 was fullH4392 of clothesH899 and equipmentH3627 whichH834 the ArameansH758 had thrownH7993 awayH7993 in their hasteH2648. Then the messengersH4397 returnedH7725 and toldH5046 the kingH4428.

16So the peopleH5971 wentH3318 out and plunderedH962 the campH4264 of the ArameansH758. Then a 4measureH5429 of fineH5560 flourH5560 was sold for a shekelH8255 and two 5measuresH5429 of barleyH8184 for a shekelH8255, 6according to the wordH1697 of the LordH3068. 17Now the kingH4428 appointedH6485 7the royalH7991 officerH7991 on whoseH834 handH3027 he leanedH8172 8to haveH5921 chargeH5921 of the gateH8179; but the peopleH5971 trampledH7429 on him at the gateH8179, and he diedH4191 justH3512 as the manH376 of GodH430 had saidH1696, 9whoH834 spokeH1696 when the kingH4428 cameH3381 downH3381 to him. 18It happenedH1961 just as the manH376 of GodH430 had spokenH1696 to the kingH4428, sayingH559, “10Two 11measuresH5429 of barleyH8184 for a shekelH8255 and a 12measureH5429 of fineH5560 flourH5560 for a shekelH8255, will be sold tomorrowH4279 about this timeH6256 at the gateH8179 of SamariaH8111.” 19Then the royalH7991 officerH7991 answeredH6030 the manH376 of GodH430 and saidH559, “Now beholdH2009, 13if the LordH3068 should makeH6213 windowsH699 in heavenH8064, could suchH2088 a thingH1697 be?” And he saidH559, “BeholdH2009, you will seeH7200 it with your own eyesH5869, but you will not eatH398 14of it.” 20And soH3651 it happenedH1961 to him, for the peopleH5971 trampledH7429 on him at the gateH8179 and he diedH4191.
