Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1And Eliseus spoke to the woman, whose son he had restored to life, saying: Arise, and go thou and thy household, and sojourn wheresoever thou canst find: for the Lord hath exiled a famine, and it shall come upon the land seven years.
1Καὶ Ἑλισαιὲ ἐλάλησε πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα, ἧς ἐζωπύρησε τὸν υἱὸν, λέγων, ἀνάστηθι καὶ δεῦρο σὺ καὶ ὁ οἶκός σου, καὶ παροίκει οὗ ἐὰν παροικήσῃς, ὅτι κέκληκε Κύριος λιμὸν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καί γε ἦλθεν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἑπτὰ ἔτη.
2And she arose, and did according to the word of the man of God: and going with her household, she sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.
2Καὶ ἀνέστη ἡ γυνὴ, καὶ ἐποίησε κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα Ἑλισαιὲ καὶ αὐτὴ καὶ ὁ οἶκος αὐτῆς, καὶ παρῴκει ἐν γῇ ἀλλοφύλων ἑπτὰ ἔτη.
3And when the seven years were ended, the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines, and she went forth to speak to the king for her house, and for her lands.
3Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὸ τέλος τῶν ἑπτὰ ἐτῶν, καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν ἡ γυνὴ ἐκ γῆς ἀλλοφύλων εἰς τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ἦλθε βοῆσαι πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα περὶ τοῦ οἴκου ἑαυτῆς καὶ περὶ τῶν ἀγρῶν αὐτῆς.
4And the king talked with Giezi, the servant of the man of God, saying: Tell me all the great things that Eliseus hath done.
4Καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐλάλει πρὸς Γιεζὶ τὸ παιδάριον Ἑλισαιὲ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ Θεοῦ, λέγων, διήγησαι δὴ ἐμοὶ πάντα τὰ μεγάλα ἃ ἐποίησεν Ἑλισαιέ.
5And when he was telling the king how he had raised one dead to life, the woman appeared, whose son he had restored to life, crying to the king for her house, and her lands. And Giezi said: My lord O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Eliseus raised to life.
5Καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῦ ἐξηγουμένου τῷ βασιλεῖ, ὡς ἑζωπύρησεν υἱὸν τεθνηκότα, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἡ γυνὴ ἧς ἐζωπύρησε τὸν υἱὸν αὐτῆς Ἑλισαιὲ, βοῶσα πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα περὶ τοῦ οἴκου ἑαυτῆς καὶ περὶ τῶν ἀγρῶν ἑαυτῆς· καὶ εἶπε Γιεζὶ, Κύριε βασιλεῦ, αὕτη ἡ γυνὴ, καὶ οὗτος ὁ υἱὸς αὐτῆς, ὃν ἐζωπύρησεν Ἑλισαιέ.
6And the king asked the woman: and she told him. And the king appointed her an eunuch, saying: Restore her all that is hers, and all the revenues of the lands, from the day that she left the land, to this present.
6Καὶ ἐπηρώτησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὴν γυναῖκα· καὶ διηγήσατο αὐτῷ· καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῇ ὁ βασιλεὺς εὐνοῦχον ἕνα, λέγων, ἐπίστρεψον πάντα τὰ αὐτῆς, καὶ πάντα τὰ γεννήματα τοῦ ἀγροῦ ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας ἧς κατέλιπε τὴν γῆν ἕως τοῦ νῦν.
7Eliseus also came to Damascus, and Benadad king of Syria was sick: and they told him, saying: The man of God is come hither.
7Καὶ ἦλθεν Ἑλισαιὲ εἰς Δαμασκόν· καὶ υἱὸς Ἄδερ βασιλεὺς Συρίας ἠῤῥώστησε, καὶ ἀνήγγειλαν αὐτῷ, λέγοντες, ἥκει ὁ ἄνθρωπος τοῦ Θεοῦ ἕως ᾧδε.
8And the king said to Hazael: Take with thee presents, and go to meet the man of God, and consult the Lord by him, saying: Can I recover of this my illness?
8Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς πρὸς Ἀζαὴλ, λάβε ἐν τῇ χειρί σου μαναὰ, καὶ δεῦρο εἰς ἀπαντὴν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ ἐπιζήτησον τὸν Κύριον παρʼ αὐτοῦ, λέγων, εἰ ζήσομαι ἐκ τῆς ἀῤῥωστίας μου ταύτης;
9And Hazael went to meet him, taking with him presents, and all the good things of Damascus, the burdens of forty camels. And when he stood before him, he said: Thy son Benadad the king of Syria hath sent me to thee, saying: Can I recover of this my illness?
9Καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἀζαὴλ εἰς ἀπαντὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔλαβε μαναὰ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάντα τὰ ἀγαθὰ Δαμασκοῦ, ἄρσιν τεσσαράκοντα καμήλων, καὶ ἦλθε καὶ ἔστη ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς Ἑλισαιὲ, υἱός σου υἱὸς Ἅδερ βασιλεὺς Συρίας ἀπέστειλέ με πρὸς σὲ ἐπερωτῆσαι, λέγων, εἰ ζήσομαι ἐκ τῆς ἀῤῥωστίας μου ταύτης;
10And Eliseus said to him: Go tell him: Thou shalt recover: bat the Lord hath shewn me that he shall surely die.
10Καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλισαιὲ, δεῦρο, εἶπον, ζωῇ ζήσῃ, καὶ ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος ὅτι θανάτῳ ἀποθανῇ.
11And he stood with him, and was troubled so far as to blush: and the man of God wept.
11Καὶ παρέστη τῷ προσώπῳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔθηκεν ἕως αἰσχύνης· καὶ ἔκλαυσεν ὁ ἄνθρωπος τοῦ Θεοῦ.
12And Hazael said to him: Why doth my lord weep? And he said: Because I know the evil that thou wilt do to the children of Israel. Their strong cities then wilt burn with fire, and their young men thou wilt kill with the sword, and thou wilt dash their children, and rip up their pregnant women.
12Καὶ εἶπεν Ἀζαὴλ, τί ὅτι ὁ κύριός μου κλαίει; καὶ εἶπεν, ὅτι οἶδα ὅσα ποιήσεις τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ κακά· τὰ ὀχυρώματα αὐτῶν ἐξαποστελεῖς ἐν πυρὶ, καὶ τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς αὐτῶν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ ἀποκτενεῖς, καὶ τὰ νήπια αὐτῶν ἐνσείσεις, καὶ τὰς ἐν γαστρὶ ἐχούσας αὐτῶν ἀναῥῥήξεις.
13And Hazael said: But what am I thy servant a dog, that I should do this great thing? And Eliseus said: The Lord hath shewn me that thou shalt be king of Syria.
13Καὶ εἶπεν Ἀζαὴλ, τίς ἐστιν ὁ δοῦλός σου, ὁ κύων ὁ τεθνηκὼς, ὅτι ποιήσει τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο; καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλισαιὲ, ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριός σε βασιλεύοντα ἐπὶ Συρίαν.
14And when he was departed from Eliseus, he came to his master, who said to him: What saith Eliseus to thee? And he answered: He told me: Thou shalt recover.
14Καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἀπὸ Ἑλισαιὲ, καὶ εἰσῆλθε πρὸς τὸν κύριον αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, τί εἶπέ σοι Ἑλισαιέ; καὶ εἶπεν, εἶπέ μοι, ζωῇ ζήσῃ.
15And on the next day he took a blanket, and pouted water on it, and spread it upon his face: and he died, and Hazael reigned in his stead.
15Καὶ ἐγένετο τῇ ἐπαύριον, καὶ ἔλαβε τὸ μαχβὰρ καὶ ἔβαψεν ἐν τῷ ὕδατι, καὶ περιέβαλεν ἐπὶ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀπέθανε· καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἀζαὴλ ἀντʼ αὐτοῦ.
16In the fifth year of Joram son of Achab king of Israel, and of Josaphat king of Juda, reigned Joram son of Josaphat king of Juda.
16Ἐν ἔτει πέμπτῳ τῷ Ἰωρὰμ υἱῷ Ἀχαὰβ βασιλεῖ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ Ἰωσαφὰτ βασιλεῖ Ἰούδα, ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωρὰμ υἱὸς Ἰωσαφὰτ βασιλεὺς Ἰούδα.
17He was two and thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
17Υἱὸς τριάκοντα καὶ δύο ἐτῶν ἦν ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν, καὶ ὀκτὼ ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ.
18And he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, as the house of Achab had walked: for the daughter of Achab was his wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
18Καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ βασιλέων Ἰσραὴλ καθὼς ἐποίησεν οἶκος Ἀχαὰβ, ὅτι θυγάτηρ Ἀχαὰβ ἦν αὐτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα, καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου.
19But the Lord would not destroy Juda, for David his servant’s sake, as he had promised him, to give him a light, and to his children always.
19Καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησε Κύριος διαφθεῖραι τὸν Ἰούδαν διὰ Δαυὶδ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ, καθὼς εἶπε δοῦναι αὐτῷ λύχνον καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας.
20In his days Edom revolted, from being under Juda, and made themselves a king.
20Ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ ἠθέτησεν Ἐδὼμ ὑποκάτωθεν χειρὸς Ἰούδα, καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν ἐφʼ ἑαυτὸν βασιλέα.
21And Joram came to Seira, and all the chariots with him: and he arose in the night, and defeated the Edomites that had surrounded him, and the captains of the chariots, but the people fled into their tents.
21Καὶ ἀνέβη Ἰωρὰμ εἰς Σιὼρ, καὶ πάντα τὰ ἅρματα τὰ μετʼ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῦ ἀναστάντος, καὶ ἐπάταξε τὸν Ἐδὼμ τὸν κυκλώσαντα ἐπʼ αὐτὸν, καὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας τῶν ἁρμάτων, καὶ ἔφυγεν ὁ λαὸς εἰς τὰ σκηνώματα αὐτῶν.
22So Edom revolted from being under Juda, unto this day. Then Lobna also revolted at the same time.
22Καὶ ἠθέτησεν Ἐδὼμ ὑποκάτω τῆς χειρὸς Ἰούδα ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης· τότε ἠθέτησε Λοβνὰ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ.
23But the rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
23Καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ἰωρὰμ καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησεν, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γέγραπται ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ἰούδα;
24And Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David, and Ochozias his son reigned in Iris stead.
24Καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἰωρὰμ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐτάφη μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυὶδ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ὀχοζίας υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντʼ αὐτοῦ.
25In the twelfth year of Joram son of Achab king of Israel, reigned Ochozias son of Joram king of Juda.
25Ἐν ἔτει δωδεκάτῳ τῷ Ἰωρὰμ υἱῷ Ἀχαὰβ βασιλεῖ Ἰσραὴλ ἐβασίλευσεν Ὀχοζίας υἱὸς Ἰωράμ.
26Ochozias was two and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Athalia the daughter of Amri king of Israel.
26Υἱὸς εἴκοσι καὶ δύο ἐτῶν Ὀχοζίας ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτόν, καὶ ἐνιαυτὸν ἕνα ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Γοθολία θυγάτηρ Ἀμβρὶ βασιλέως Ἰσραήλ.
27And he walked in the ways of the house of Achab: and he did evil before the Lord, as did the house of Achab: for he was the son in law of the house of Achab.
27Καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ οἴκου Ἀχαὰβ, καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου καθὼς ὁ οἶκος Ἀχαάβ.
28He went also with Joram son of Achab, to fight against Hazael king of Syria in Ramoth Galaad, and the Syrians wounded Joram:
28Καὶ ἐπορεύθη μετὰ Ἰωρὰμ υἱοῦ Ἀχαὰβ εἰς πόλεμον μετὰ Ἁζαὴλ βασιλέως ἀλλοφύλων ἐν Ῥεμμὼθ Γαλαὰδ, καὶ ἐπάταξαν οἱ Σύροι τὸν Ἰωράμ.
29And he went back to be healed, in Jezrahel: because the Syrians had wounded him in Ramoth when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Ochozias the son of Joram king of Juda, went down to visit Joram the son of Achab in Jezrahel, because he was sick there.
29Καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἰωρὰμ τοῦ ἰατρευθῆναι ἐν Ἰεζράελ ἀπὸ τῶν πληγῶν ὧν ἐπάταξαν αὐτὸν ἐν Ῥεμμὼθ, ἐν τῷ πολεμεῖν αὐτὸν μετὰ Ἁζαὴλ βασιλέως Συρίας· καὶ Ὀχοζίας υἱὸς Ἰωρὰμ κατέβη τοῦ ἰδεῖν τὸν Ἰωρὰμ υἱὸν Ἀχαὰβ ἐν Ἰεζράελ, ὅτι ἠῤῥώστει αὐτός.
