1 Then Moav rebelled against Yisrael after the death of
Achav.
2 And Achazyahu fell down through a lattice in his upper
room that was in Shomron, and was sick: and he sent
messengers, and said to them, Go, inquire of Ba’al-Zevuv
the elohim of Ekron whether I shall be healed of this
disease.
3 But a heavenly malach of vuvh said to Eliyahu the
Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the
melech of Shomron, and say to them, Is it because there is
no Elohim in Yisrael, that you go to inquire of Ba’al-
Zevuv the elohim of Ekron?
4 Now therefore this says vuvh, You shall not come down
from that bed on which you have gone up, but shall surely
die. And Eliyahu departed.
5 And when the messengers turned back to him, he said to
them, Why have you now come back?
6 And they said to him, There came a man up to meet us,
and said to us, Go, turn back to the melech that sent you,
and say to him, This says vuvh, Is it because there is no
Elohim in Yisrael, that you sent to inquire of Ba’al-Zevuv
the elohim of Ekron? Therefore you shall not come down
from that bed on which you have gone up, but shall surely
die.
7 And he said to them, What kind of man was he who
came up to meet you, and told you these words?
8 And they answered him, He was a hairy man, and
dressed with a girdle of leather around his loins. And he
said, It is Eliyahu the Tishbite.
9 Then the melech sent to him a captain of fifty with his
fifty. And he went up to him: and, see, he sat on the top of
a hill. And he spoke to him, You man of Elohim, the
melech has said, Come down.
10 And Eliyahu answered and said to the captain of fifty,
If I be a man of Elohim, then let fire come down from the
shamayim, and consume you and your fifty. And fire
came down fire from the shamayim, and consumed him
and his fifty.
11 Again also he sent to him another captain of fifty with
his fifty. And he answered and said to him, O man of
Elohim, this has the melech said, Come down quickly.
12 And Eliyahu answered and said to them, If I be a man
of Elohim, let fire come down from the shamayim, and
consume you and your fifty. And the fire of Elohim came
down from the shamayim, and consumed him and his
fifty.
13 And he sent again a captain of the third fifty with his
fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and
fell on his knees before Eliyahu, and pleaded with him,
and said to him, O man of Elohim, I beg you, let my
chayim, and the chayim of these fifty of your avadim, be
precious in your sight.
14 See, there came fire down from the shamayim, and
burned up the two captains of the former fifties with their
fifties: therefore let my chayim now be precious in your
sight.
15 And the Malach-vuvh said to Eliyahu, Go down with
him: be not afraid of him. And he arose, and went down

with him to the melech.
16 And he said to him, This says vuvh, Since you have
sent messengers to inquire of Ba’al-Zevuv the elohim of
Ekron, is it because there is no Elohim in Yisrael to
inquire of His word? Therefore you shall not come down
off that bed on which you have gone up, but shall surely
die.
17 So he died according to the word of vuvh which
Eliyahu had spoken. And Yahuram reigned in his place in
the second year of Yahuram the son of Yahushaphat
melech of Yahudah; because he had no son.
18 Now the rest of the acts of Achazyahu that he did, are
they not written in the Scroll of the Divre HaYamim
about the melechim of Yisrael?

And it came to pass, when vuvh would take up
Eliyahu into the shamayim by a whirlwind, that Eliyahu
went with Elisha from Gilgal.
2 And Eliyahu said to Elisha, Stay here, I ask you; for
vuvh has sent me to Beth-El. And Elisha said to him, As
vuvh lives, and as your being lives, I will not leave you.
So they went down to Beth-El.
3 And the sons of the neviim that were at Beth-El came
forth to Elisha, and said to him, Do you know that vuvh
will take away your master from being over you today?
And he said, Ken, I know it; hold you your silence.
4 And Eliyahu said to him, Elisha, stay here, I ask you;
for vuvh has sent me to Yericho. And he said, As vuvh
lives, and as your being lives, I will not leave you. So
they came to Yericho.
5 And the sons of the neviim that were at Yericho came to
Elisha, and said to him, Do you know that vuvh will take
away your master from being over you today? And he
answered, Ken; I know it; be silent!
6 And Eliyahu said to him, Stay here, I ask you, for vuvh
has sent me to Yarden. And he said, As vuvh lives, and as
your being lives, I will not leave you. And the two went
on.
7 And fifty men of the sons of the neviim went, and stood
far off to view: and the two of them stood by Yarden.
8 And Eliyahu took his mantle, and wrapped it together,
and struck the mayim, and they were divided here and
there, so that the two of them went over on dry ground.
9 And it came to pass, when they had gone over, that
Eliyahu said to Elisha, Ask me what I shall do for you,
before I am taken away from you. And Elisha said, I ask
you, let a double portion of your ruach be upon me.
10 And he said, You have asked a hard thing:
nevertheless, if you see me when I am taken from you, it
shall be so for you; but if not, it shall not be so.
11 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked,
that, see, there appeared a mirkavah of fire, and horses of
fire, and separated them; and Eliyahu went up by a
whirlwind into the shamayim.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My abba, my abba,
the Mirkavah of Yisrael, and their horsemen. And he saw
him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and
tore them in two pieces.
