2 Kings 2:1 ¶ It happened, when Yahweh3068 would take up5927 Elijah452 by a whirlwind5591 into heaven,8064 that Elijah452 went3212 with Elisha477 from Gilgal.1537 2 Elijah452 said559 to Elisha,477 "Please wait3427 here, for Yahweh3068 has sent7971 me as far as Bethel."1008 Elisha477 said,559 "As Yahweh3068 lives,2416 and as your soul5315 lives,2416 I will not leave5800 you." So they went down3381 to Bethel.1008

2 Kings 2:3 ¶ The sons1121 of the prophets5030 who were at Bethel1008 came out3318 to Elisha,477 and said559 to him, "Do you know3045 that Yahweh3068 will take away3947 your master113 from your head7218 today?"3117 He said,559 "Yes, I know3045 it; hold your peace."2814

2 Kings 2:4 ¶ Elijah452 said559 to him, "Elisha,477 please wait3427 here, for Yahweh3068 has sent7971 me to Jericho."3405 He said,559 "As Yahweh3068 lives,2416 and as your soul5315 lives,2416 I will not leave5800 you." So they came935 to Jericho.3405

2 Kings 2:5 ¶ The sons1121 of the prophets5030 who were at Jericho3405 came5066 near to Elisha,477 and said559 to him, "Do you know3045 that Yahweh3068 will take away3947 your master113 from your head7218 today?"3117 He answered,559 "Yes, I know3045 it. Hold your peace."2814

2 Kings 2:6 ¶ Elijah452 said559 to him, "Please wait3427 here, for Yahweh3068 has sent7971 me to the Jordan."3383 He said,559 "As Yahweh3068 lives,2416 and as your soul5315 lives,2416 I will not leave5800 you." They both8147 went on.3212 7 Fifty2572 men376 of the sons1121 of the prophets5030 went,1980 and stood5975 opposite5048 them at a distance;7350 and they both8147 stood5975 by the Jordan.3383 8 Elijah452 took3947 his mantle,155 and wrapped it together,1563 and struck5221 the waters,4325 and they were divided2673 here and there, so that they two8147 went over5674 on dry2724 ground. 9 It happened, when they had gone over,5674 that Elijah452 said559 to Elisha,477 "Ask7592 what I shall do6213 for you, before I am taken3947 from you." Elisha477 said,559 "Please let a double8147 portion6310 of your spirit7307 be on me."

2 Kings 2:10 ¶ He said,559 "You have asked7592 a hard thing.7185 If you see7200 me when I am taken3947 from you, it shall be so for you; but if not, it shall not be so."

2 Kings 2:11 ¶ It happened, as they still1980 went on,1980 and talked,1696 that behold, a chariot7393 of fire784 and horses5483 of fire784 separated6504 them;8147 996 and Elijah452 went up5927 by a whirlwind5591 into heaven.8064 12 Elisha477 saw7200 it, and he cried,6817 "My father,1 my father,1 the chariots7393 of Israel3478 and its horsemen!"6571 He saw7200 him no more: and he took hold2388 of his own clothes,899 and tore7167 them in two8147 pieces.7168 13 He took up7311 also the mantle155 of Elijah452 that fell5307 from him, and went back,7725 and stood5975 by the bank8193 of the Jordan.3383 14 He took3947 the mantle155 of Elijah452 that fell5307 from him, and struck5221 the waters,4325 and said,559 "Where is Yahweh,3068 the God430 of Elijah?"452 When he also had struck5221 the waters,4325 they were divided2673 here and there; and Elisha477 went over.5674 15 When the sons1121 of the prophets5030 who were at Jericho3405 over against him saw7200 him, they said,559 "The spirit7307 of Elijah452 rests5117 on Elisha."477 They came935 to meet7125 him, and bowed7812 themselves to the ground776 before him. 16 They said559 to him, "See now, there are3426 with your servants5650 fifty2572 strong2428 men.1121 Please let them go3212 and seek1245 your master.113 Perhaps the Spirit7307 of Yahweh3068 has taken him up,5375 and put7993 him on some259 mountain,2022 or into some259 valley.1516 He said,559 "You shall not send7971 them."

2 Kings 2:17 ¶ When they urged6484 him until he was ashamed,954 he said,559 "Send7971 them." They sent7971 therefore fifty2572 men;376 and they searched1245 for three7969 days,3117 but didn't find4672 him. 18 They came back7725 to him, while he stayed3427 at Jericho;3405 and he said559 to them, "Didn't I tell559 you, ‘Don't go?'"3212

2 Kings 2:19 ¶ The men582 of the city5892 said559 to Elisha,477 "Behold, please, the situation4186 of this city5892 is pleasant,2896 as my lord113 sees;7200 but the water4325 is bad,7451 and the land776 miscarries."7921

2 Kings 2:20 ¶ He said,559 "Bring3947 me a new2319 jar,6746 and put7760 salt4417 in it." They brought3947 it to him. 21 He went out3318 to the spring4161 of the waters,4325 and threw7993 salt4417 into it, and said,559 "Thus says559 Yahweh,3068 ‘I have healed7495 these waters.4325 There shall not be from there any more death4194 or miscarrying.'"7921 22 So the waters4325 were healed7495 to this day,3117 according to the word1697 of Elisha477 which he spoke.1696

2 Kings 2:23 ¶ He went up5927 from there to Bethel.1008 As he was going up5927 by the way,1870 some6996 youths5288 came out3318 of the city5892 and mocked7046 him, and said559 to him, "Go up,5927 you baldy!7142 Go up,5927 you baldhead!"7142 24 He looked7200 behind310 him and saw7200 them, and cursed7043 them in the name8034 of Yahweh.3068 Two8147 female bears1677 came out3318 of the woods,3293 and mauled1234 forty -705 two8147 of those youths.3206 25 He went3212 from there to Mount2022 Carmel,3760 and from there he returned7725 to Samaria.8111
