|
|
16. And he said to him, So says Jehovah, Because you have sent messengers to ask of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, is it because there is not a God in Israel to inquire of His Word? Therefore, you shall not come down from the bed on which you have gone up, for dying you shall die.
|
16. And he said H1696 unto H413 him, Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 , Forasmuch as H3282 H834 thou hast sent H7971 messengers H4397 to inquire H1875 of Baal H1176 -zebub the god H430 of Ekron H6138 , is it not because H4480 H1097 there is no H369 God H430 in Israel H3478 to inquire H1875 of his word H1697 ? therefore H3651 thou shalt not H3808 come down H3381 off H4480 that bed H4296 on which H834 H8033 thou art gone up H5927 , but H3588 shalt surely die H4191 H4191 .
|
|
17. And he died, according to the Word of Jehovah that Elijah spoke. And Jehoram reigned in his place, in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, for he had no son.
|
17. So he died H4191 according to the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 which H834 Elijah H452 had spoken H1696 . And Jehoram H3088 reigned H4427 in his stead H8478 in the second H8147 year H8141 of Jehoram H3088 the son H1121 of Jehoshaphat H3092 King H4428 of Judah H3063 : because H3588 he had H1961 no H3808 son H1121 .

|
18. And the rest of the acts of Ahaziah that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Matters of the Days of the Kings of Israel?
|
