1
And it came to pass, when the Lord would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἀνάγειν Κύριον ἐν συσσεισμῷ τὸν Ἠλιοὺ ὡς εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν, καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἠλιοὺ καὶ Ἑλισαιὲ ἐκ Γαλγάλων.
2
And Elijah said unto Elisha, Tarry here, I pray thee; for the Lord hath sent me to Beth–el. And Elisha said unto him, As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they went down to Beth–el.
Καὶ εἶπεν Ἠλιοὺ πρὸς Ἑλισαιὲ, κάθου δὴ ἐνταῦθα, ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς ἀπέσταλκέ με ἕως Βαιθήλ· καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλισαιὲ, ζῇ Κύριος καὶ ζῇ ἡ ψυχή σου, εἰ ἐγκαταλείψω σε· καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Βαιθήλ.
3
And the sons of the prophets that were at Beth–el came forth to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Lord will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he said, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.
Καὶ ἦλθον οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν προφητῶν οἱ ἐν Βαιθὴλ πρὸς Ἑλισαιὲ, καὶ εἶπον πρὸς αὐτὸν, εἰ ἔγνως, ὅτι Κύριος σήμερον λαμβάνει τὸν κύριόν σου ἐπάνωθεν τῆς κεφαλῆς σου; καὶ εἶπε, κἀγὼ ἔγνωκα, σιωπᾶτε.
4
And Elijah said unto him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee; for the Lord hath sent me to Jericho. And he said, As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they came to Jericho.
Καὶ εἶπεν Ἠλιοὺ πρὸς Ἑλισαιὲ, κάθου δὴ ἐνταῦθα, ὅτι Κύριος ἀπέσταλκέ με εἰς Ἱεριχώ· καὶ εἶπε, ζῇ Κύριος καὶ ζῇ ἡ ψυχή σου, εἰ ἐγκαταλείψω σε· καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Ἱεριχώ.
5
And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Lord will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he answered, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.
Καὶ ἤγγισαν οἱ υἱοῖ τῶν προφητῶν οἱ ἐν Ἱεριχὼ πρὸς Ἑλισαιὲ, καὶ εἶπον πρὸς αὐτὸν, εἰ ἔγνως, ὅτι σήμερον λαμβάνει Κύριος τὸν κύρίον σου ἐπάνωθεν τῆς κεφαλῆς σου; καὶ εἶπε, καί γε ἐγὼ ἔγνων, σιωπᾶτε.
6
And Elijah said unto him, Tarry, I pray thee, here; for the Lord hath sent me to Jordan. And he said, As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And they two went on.
Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἠλιοὺ, κάθου δὴ ὧδε, ὅτι Κύριος ἀπέσταλκέ με ἕως εἰς τὸν Ἰορδάνην· καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλισαιὲ, ζῇ Κύριος καὶ ζῇ ἡ ψυχή σου, εἰ ἐγκαταλείψω σε· καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν ἀμφότεροι,
7
And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood to view afar off: and they two stood by Jordan.
καὶ πεντήκοντα ἄνδρες υἱοὶ τῶν προφητῶν, καὶ ἔστησαν ἐξεναντίας μακρόθεν· καὶ ἀμφότεροι ἔστησαν ἐπὶ τοῦ Ἰορδάνου.
8
And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
Καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἠλιοὺ τὴν μηλωτὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἴλησε καὶ ἐπάταξε τὸ ὕδωρ, καὶ διῃρέθη τὸ ὕδωρ ἔνθα καὶ ἔνθα· καὶ διέβησαν ἀμφότεροι ἐν ἐρήμῳ.
9
And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.
Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ διαβῆναι αὐτοὺς, καὶ Ἠλιοὺ εἶπε πρὸς Ἑλισαιὲ, αἴτησαι τί ποιήσω σοι πρὶν ἢ ἀναληφθῆναί με ἀπὸ σοῦ· καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλισαιὲ, γενηθήτω δὴ διπλᾶ ἐν πνεύματί σου ἐπʼ ἐμέ.
10
And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so.
Καὶ εἶπεν Ἠλιοὺ, ἐσκλήρυνας τοῦ αἰτήσασθαι· ἐὰν ἴδῃς με ἀναλαμβανόμενον ἀπὸ σοῦ, καὶ ἔσται σοι οὕτως· καὶ ἐὰν μὴ, οὐ μὴ γένηται.
11
And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
Καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῶν πορευομένων, ἐπορεύοντο καὶ ἐλάλουν· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἅρμα πυρὸς καὶ ἵπποι πυρὸς, καὶ διέστειλεν ἀναμέσον ἀμφοτέρων· καὶ ἀνελήμφθη Ἠλιοὺ ἐν συσσεισμῷ ὡς εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν.
12
And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
Καὶ Ἑλισαιὲ ἑώρα, καὶ ἐβόα, πάτερ, πάτερ, ἅρμα Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἱππεὺς αὐτοῦ· καὶ οὐκ εἶδεν αὐτὸν ἔτι· καὶ ἐπελάβετο τῶν ἱματίων αὐτοῦ, καὶ διέῤῥηξεν αὐτὰ εἰς δύο ῥήγματα.
13
He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan;
Καὶ ὕψωσε τὴν μηλωτὴν Ἠλιοὺ, ἣ ἔπεσεν ἐπάνωθεν Ἑλισαιέ· καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ἑλισαιὲ, καὶ ἔστη ἐπὶ τοῦ χείλους τοῦ Ἰορδάνου,
14
And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is the Lord God of Elijah? and when he also had smitten the waters, they parted hither and thither: and Elisha went over.
καὶ ἔλαβε τὴν μηλωτὴν Ἠλιοὺ, ἣ ἔπεσεν ἐπάνωθεν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπάταξε τὸ ὕδωρ, καὶ εἶπε, ποῦ ὁ Θεὸς Ἠλιοὺ ἀφφώ; καὶ ἐπάταξε τὰ ὕδατα, καὶ διεῤῥάγησαν ἔνθα καὶ ἔνθα· καὶ διέβη Ἑλισαιέ.
15
And when the sons of the prophets which were to view at Jericho saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.
Καὶ εἶδον αὐτὸν οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν προφητῶν οἱ ἐν Ἱεριχὼ ἐξεναντίας, καὶ εἶπον, ἐπαναπέπαυται τὸ πνεῦμα Ἠλιοὺ ἐπὶ Ἑλισαιέ· καὶ ἦλθον εἰς συναντὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ προσεκύνησαν αὐτῷ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν,
16
And they said unto him, Behold now, there be with thy servants fifty strong men; let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master: lest peradventure the Spirit of the Lord hath taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some valley. And he said, Ye shall not send.
καὶ εἶπον πρὸς αὐτὸν, ἰδοὺ δὴ μετὰ τῶν παίδων σου πεντήκοντα ἄνδρες υἱοὶ δυνάμεως· πορευθέντες δὴ ζητησάτωσαν τὸν κύριόν σου, μή ποτε ᾖρεν αὐτὸν πνεῦμα Κυρίου, καὶ ἔῤῥιψεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ Ἰορδάνῃ ἢ ἐφʼ ἓν τῶν ὀρέων ἢ ἐφʼ ἕνα τῶν βουνῶν· καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλισαιὲ, οὐκ ἀποστελεῖτε.
17
And when they urged him till he was ashamed, he said, Send. They sent therefore fifty men; and they sought three days, but found him not.
Καὶ παρεβιάσαντο αὐτὸν, ἕως οὗ ᾐσχύνετο· καὶ εἶπεν, ἀποστείλατε· καὶ ἀπέστειλαν πεντήκοντα ἄνδρας, καὶ ἐζήτησαν τρεῖς ἡμέρας, καὶ οὐχ εὗρον αὐτόν.
18
And when they came again to him, (for he tarried at Jericho,) he said unto them, Did I not say unto you, Go not?
Καὶ ἀνέστρεψαν πρὸς αὐτόν, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐκάθητο ἐν Ἱεριχώ· καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλισαῖε, οὐκ εἶπον πρὸς ὑμᾶς, μὴ πορευθῆτε;
19
And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Behold, I pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth: but the water is naught, and the ground barren.
Καὶ εἶπον οἱ ἄνδρες τῆς πόλεως πρὸς Ἑλισαιὲ, ἰδοὺ ἡ κατοίκησις τῆς πόλεως ἀγαθὴ, καθὼς ὁ κύριος βλέπει, καὶ τὰ ὕδατα πονηρὰ, καὶ ἡ γῆ ἀτεκνουμένη.
20
And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him.
Καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλισαιὲ λάβετέ μοι ὑδρίσκην καινὴν, καὶ θέτε ἐκεῖ ἅλα· καὶ ἔλαβον, καὶ ἤνεγκαν πρὸς αὐτόν.
21
And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the Lord, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren land.
Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ἐλισαιὲ εἰς τὴν διέξοδον τῶν ὑδάτων, καὶ ἔῤῥιψεν ἐκεῖ ἅλα, καὶ εἶπε, τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἴαμαι τὰ ὕδατα ταῦτα, οὐκ ἔσται ἔτι ἐκεῖθεν θάνατος καὶ ἀτεκνουμένη.
22
So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spake.
Καὶ ἰάθησαν τὰ ὕδατα ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης, κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα Ἑλισαιὲ ὃ ἐλάλησε.
23
And he went up from thence unto Beth–el: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
Καὶ ἀνέβη ἐκεῖθεν εἰς Βαιθήλ· καὶ ἀναβαίνοντος αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ καὶ παιδάρια μικρὰ ἐξῆλθον ἐκ τῆς πόλεως καὶ κατέπαιζον αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπον αὐτῷ, ἀνάβαινε φαλακρὲ, ἀνάβαινε.
24
And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.
Καὶ ἐξένευσεν ὀπίσω αὐτῶν, καὶ εἶδεν αὐτὰ, καὶ κατηράσατο αὐτοῖς ἐν ὀνόματι Κυρίου· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐξῆλθον δύο ἄρκοι ἐκ τοῦ δρυμοῦ, καὶ ἀνέῤῥηξαν ἀπʼ αὐτῶν τεσσαράκοντα καὶ δύο παῖδας.
25
And he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.
Καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐκεῖθεν εἰς τὸ ὄρος τὸ Καρμήλιον, κᾀκεῖθεν ἐπέστρεψεν εἰς Σαμάρειαν.
