1After the death of Ahab, Moab rebelled against Israel.
“Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab.”
“after the death of Ahab, Moab rebelled against Israel.”
2Now Ahaziah had fallen through the lattice of his upper room in Samaria and injured himself. So he sent messengers and instructed them: "Go inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I will recover from this injury."
“And Ahaziah fell down through a lattice in his upper chamber that was in Samaria and he was sick. And he sent messengers and said unto them, go inquire of Baal -zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I shall recover of this disease.”
“Now, Ahaziah fell through the lattice of his upper room in Samaria and was injured. So he sent messengers and said to them, go inquire of Beelzebub, the god of Ekron, whether I shall recover from this injury.”
3But the angel of the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, "Go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria and ask them, 'Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are on your way to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?'
“But the angel of the Lord said to Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them, Is it because there's no god in Israel that you're going to inquire of Baal -zebub, the god of…”
4Therefore this is what the LORD says: 'You will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.'" So Elijah departed.
“Now, therefore, thus says the Lord, You shall not come down from the bed which you have gone up, but you shall surely die. So Elijah departed.”
“Now therefore, thou saith the Lord, thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die. Elijah departed.”
5When the messengers returned to the king, he asked them, "Why have you returned?"
“when the messengers returned to him, he said to them, Why have you come back?”
6They replied, "A man came up to meet us and said, 'Go back to the king who sent you and tell him that this is what the LORD says: Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are sending these men to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.'"
“And they said unto him, there came a man up to meet us. He said unto us, go turn again unto the king that sent you and say unto him, thus saith the Lord, is it not because there is not a god in Israel that thou sendest to inquire…”
“So they said to him, A man came up to meet us and said to us, Go return to the king who sent you and say to him, Thus says the Lord. Is it because there's no God in Israel that you're sending to inquire of bales above the God of…”
7The king asked them, "What sort of man came up to meet you and spoke these words to you?"
“And he said unto them, what manner of man was he which came up to meet you and told you these words?”
“he said to them, What kind of man was it who came up to meet you and told you these words?”
“said unto them in verse 7, What manner of man was he which came up to meet you and told you these words?”
“And he said unto them, what man of man was he which came up to meet you and told you these words?”
8"He was a hairy man, " they answered, "with a leather belt around his waist." "It was Elijah the Tishbite," said the king.
“So they answered him, A hairy man wearing a leather belt around his waist. And he said, It's Elijah the Tishbite.”
9Then King Ahaziah sent to Elijah a captain with his company of fifty men. So the captain went up to Elijah, who was sitting on top of a hill, and said to him, "Man of God, the king declares, 'Come down!'"
“the Tishbite. The king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty, and he went up to him, and behold, he sat on the top of a hill, and he spake unto him, Thou man of God, the king hath said, come down.”
“Then the king sent unto him a captain of 50 with his 50, and he went up to meet him. And behold, he sat on the top of a hill and he spake unto him, thou man of God, the king hath said, come down.”
“the king sent him a captain of 50 with his 50 men. So he went up to him and there he was sitting on top of the hill. And he spoke to him, man of God, the king has said, come down.”
10Elijah answered the captain, "If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men." And fire came down from heaven and consumed the captain and his fifty men.
“So Elijah answered and said to the captain of 50. If I am a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your 50 men. And fire came down from heaven and consumed him and his 50.”
“And Elijah answered and said to the captain of the fifty, If I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven and consume thee and thy fifty. There came down fire from heaven and consumed him and his fifty.”
“And Elijah answered and said to the captain of 50, if I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven and consume thee and thy 50. And they came down fire from heaven and consumed him and his 50.”
11So the king sent to Elijah another captain with his fifty men. And the captain said to Elijah, "Man of God, the king declares, 'Come down at once!'"
“Again also he sent unto him another captain of fifty with his fifty, and he answered and said unto him, O man of God, thus hath the king said, come down quickly.”
“then he sent him another captain of 50 with his 50 men, and he answered and said to him, man of God, thus, as the king said, come down quickly.”
12Again Elijah replied, "If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men." And the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed the captain and his fifty men.
“So Elijah answered and said to him, if I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your 50 men. And the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his 50.”
“But Elijah answered them, if I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your 50. Then the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his 50.”
“Elijah answered and said unto him, If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty.”
“So Elijah answered and said to them, if I'm a man of God, that fire come down from heaven and consume you and your 50 men in the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his 50.”
13So the king sent a third captain with his fifty men. And the third captain went up, fell on his knees before Elijah, and begged him, "Man of God, may my life and the lives of these fifty servants please be precious in your sight.
“and he sent again a captain of the third fistry with his fistry. And the third captain of fistry went up and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and besought him and said unto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life and…”
“And he sent again a captain and a third fifty with his fifty, and the third captain of fifty went up and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and besought him and said unto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life and the…”
“sent the captain of a third 50 with his 50. So the third captain of 50 went up and he came and fell on his knees before Elijah and treated him, oh man of God, please let my life and the life of those 50 servants of yours be…”
14Behold, fire has come down from heaven and consumed the first two captains of fifty, with all their men. But now may my life be precious in your sight."
“there came fire down from heaven, and burnt up the two captains of the former fistries with their fistries. Therefore let my life now be precious in my sight.”
“fire came down from heaven and consumed the two former captains of 50 men with their 50s, but now let my life be precious in your sight.”
15Then the angel of the LORD said to Elijah, "Go down with him. Do not be afraid of him." So Elijah got up and went down with him to the king.
“the angel of the Lord said to Elijah, go down with him. Do not be afraid of him. So he arose and went down with him to the king.”
“And the angel of the Lord said unto Elijah, Go down with him, be not afraid of him. And he arose and went down with him unto the king.”
“And the angel of the Lord said unto Elijah, Go down with him, be not afraid of him. He arose and went down with him unto the king.”
“the angel of the Lord said to Elijah, go down with him, do not be afraid of him. So he set out and went down with him to the king.”
16And Elijah said to King Ahaziah, "This is what the LORD says: Is there really no God in Israel for you to inquire of His word? Is that why you have sent messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die."
“Then he said to him, thus says the Lord, because you have sent messengers to inquire of Baal's above, the God of Ekron, is it because there's no God in Israel to inquire of his word? Therefore, you shall not come down from the…”
“He said unto him, Thou saith the Lord, forasmuch as thou hast sent messengers to inquire of Baal -zebub, the god of Ekron, is it not because there is no man in Israel to inquire of his word? Therefore thou shalt not come down off…”
17So Ahaziah died according to the word of the LORD that Elijah had spoken. And since he had no son, Jehoram succeeded him in the second year of the reign of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat over Judah.
“so he died, according to the word of the Lord which Elijah had spoken. And Jehoram reigned in his stead in the second year of Jehoram, the son of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, because he had no son.”
“So Ahaziah died according to the word of the Lord, which Elijah had spoken, because he had no son. Jehoram became king in his place in the second year of Jehoram, the son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah.”
“So he died according to the word of the Lord which Elijah had spoken. Jehoram reigned in his stead in the second year of Jehoram, the son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, because he had no son.”
18As for the rest of the acts of Ahaziah, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
“Now, the rest of the acts of Ahaziah, which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?”
“Now the rest of the acts of Ahaziah which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?”
“Now the rest of the acts of Ahaziah, which he did, are they not written in the book of Chronicles, the kings of Israel?”
