2 Kings 7:17-20
17Now the kingH4428 appointedH6485 1the royalH7991 officerH7991 on whoseH834 handH3027 he leanedH8172 2to be inH5921 chargeH5921 ofH5921 the gateH8179; but the peopleH5971 trampledH7429 onH7429 him at the gateH8179, and he diedH4191, justH3512 asH3512 the manH376 of GodH430 had saidH1696, 3whoH834 spokeH1696 when the kingH4428 cameH3381 downH3381 to him.
18So it happenedH1961 just as the manH376 of GodH430 had spokenH1696 to the kingH4428, sayingH559, “4Two 5measuresH5429 of barleyH8184 for a shekelH8255 and a 6measureH5429 of fineH5560 flourH5560 for a shekelH8255, will be sold about this timeH6256 tomorrowH4279 at the gateH8179 of SamariaH8111.”
19At that time the royalH7991 officerH7991 had respondedH6030 to the manH376 of GodH430 and saidH559, “Now evenH2009 ifH2009 7the LordH3068 were to makeH6213 windowsH699 in heavenH8064, could such a thingH1697 as thisH2088 happenH1961?” And he had saidH559, “BeholdH2009, you are going to seeH7200 it with your own eyesH5869, but you will not eatH398 8any of it.”
20And thisH3651 is whatH3651 happenedH1961 to him, for the peopleH5971 trampledH7429 onH7429 him at the gateH8179 and he diedH4191.
