2 Kings 8

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	GREEK BIBLE
1 Now Elisha spoke to the woman, whose son he had caused to live, saying: “Rise up. Go, you and your household, and sojourn in whatever place you can find. For the Lord has called forth a famine, and it shall overwhelm the land for seven years.”	1 Και ελαλησεν ο Ελισσαιε προς την γυναικα, της οποιας ανεζωοποιησε τον υιον, λεγων, Σηκωθητι και υπαγε, συ και ο οικος σου, και παροικησον οπου αν δυνηθης να παροικησης? διοτι ο Κυριος εκαλεσε την πειναν, και θελει μαλιστα επελθει επι την γην επτα ετη.
2 And she rose up, and she acted in accord with the word of the man of God. And going with her household, she sojourned in the land of the Philistines for many days.	2 Και σηκωθεισα η γυνη, εκαμε κατα τον λογον του ανθρωπου του Θεου? και υπηγεν αυτη και ο οικος αυτης, και παρωκησεν εν τη γη των Φιλισταιων επτα ετη.
3 And when the seven years had ended, the woman returned from the land of the Philistines. And she departed, so that she might petition the king on behalf of her house and on behalf of her fields.	3 Μετα δε το τελος των επτα ετων, επεστρεψεν η γυνη εκ της γης των Φιλισταιων? και εξηλθε να βοηση προς τον βασιλεα περι της οικιας αυτης και περι των αγρων αυτης.
4 Now the king was speaking with Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, saying, “Describe for me all the great deeds that Elisha has done.”	4 Και ελαλησεν ο βασιλευς προς τον Γιεζει, τον υπηρετην του ανθρωπου του Θεου, λεγων, Διηγηθητι μοι, παρακαλω, παντα τα μεγαλεια τα οποια εκαμεν ο Ελισσαιε.
5 And as he was describing for the king the manner in which he had raised the dead, the woman appeared, whose son he had restored to life, crying out to the king on behalf of her house and on behalf of her fields. And Gehazi said, “My lord the king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha raised up.”	5 Και ενω διηγειτο προς τον βασιλεα πως ανεζωοποιησε τον νεκρον, ιδου, η γυνη, της οποιας τον υιον ειχεν αναζωοποιησει, εβοησε προς τον βασιλεα περι της οικιας αυτης και περι των αγρων αυτης. Και ειπεν ο Γιεζει, Κυριε μου βασιλευ, αυτη ειναι η γυνη και ουτος ο υιος αυτης, τον οποιον ανεζωοποιησεν ο Ελισσαιε.
6 And the king questioned the woman. And she explained it to him. And the king appointed a eunuch to her, saying, “Restore to her all that is hers, with all the proceeds of the fields, from the day that she left the land until the present.”	6 Και ηρωτησεν ο βασιλευς την γυναικα, και αυτη διηγηθη το πραγμα προς αυτον. Τοτε εδωκεν εις αυτην ο βασιλευς ευνουχον, λεγων, Επιστρεψον παντα τα πραγματα αυτης και παντα τα προιοντα των αγρων αυτης, αφ' ης ημερας αφηκε την γην μεχρι του νυν.
7 Also, Elisha arrived in Damascus, and Benhadad, the king of Syria, was ill. And they reported to him, saying, “The man of God has arrived here.”	7 Ο δε Ελισσαιε ηλθεν εις Δαμασκον. Και Βεν-αδαδ ο βασιλευς της Συριας ητο αρρωστος? και απηγγειλαν προς αυτον, λεγοντες, Ο ανθρωπος του Θεου ηλθεν εως εδω.
8 And the king said to Hazael: “Take with you gifts. And go to meet the man of God. And consult the Lord through him, saying: ‘Will I be able to escape from this, my infirmity?’ ”	8 Και ειπεν ο βασιλευς προς τον Αζαηλ, Λαβε εις την χειρα σου δωρον και υπαγε εις συναντησιν του ανθρωπου του Θεου και ερωτησον δι' αυτου τον Κυριον, λεγων, Θελω αναλαβει εκ της αρρωστιας ταυτης;
9 And so, Hazael went to meet him, having with him gifts, and all the goods of Damascus, the burdens of forty camels. And when he had stood before him, he said: “Your son, Benhadad, the king of Syria, sent me to you, saying: ‘Will I be able to be healed from this, my infirmity?’ ”	9 Και υπηγεν ο Αζαηλ εις συναντησιν αυτου, λαβων δωρον εις την χειρα αυτου και απο παντος αγαθου της Δαμασκου, τεσσαρακοντα καμηλων φορτιον? και ελθων εσταθη εμπροσθεν αυτου και ειπεν, Ο υιος σου Βεν-αδαδ, ο βασιλευς της Συριας, με απεστειλε προς σε, λεγων, Θελω αναλαβει εκ της αρρωστιας ταυτης;
10 And Elisha said to him: “Go, tell him: ‘You will be healed.’ But the Lord has revealed to me that, dying he shall die.”	10 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Ελισσαιε, Υπαγε, ειπε προς αυτον, Ναι, θελεις αναλαβει πλην ο Κυριος εδειξεν εις εμε οτι εξαπαντος θελει αποθανει.
11 And he stood beside him, and he was so troubled that his face became flushed. And the man of God wept.	11 Και εστησε το προσωπον αυτου ακινητον, εωσου ερυθριασε? και εκλαυσεν ο ανθρωπος του Θεου.
12 And Hazael said to him, “Why is my lord weeping?” And he said: “Because I know the evil that you will do to the sons of Israel. Their fortified cities you will burn with fire. And their young men you will kill with the sword. And you will destroy their little ones, and tear open the pregnant women.”	12 Και ειπεν ο Αζαηλ, Δια τι κλαιεις, κυριε μου; Ο δε απεκριθη, Διοτι εξευρω οσα κακα θελεις καμει εις τους υιους Ισραηλ? τα οχυρωματα αυτων θελεις παραδωσει εις πυρ, και τους νεους αυτων θελεις αποκτεινει εν ρομφαια, και τα νηπια αυτων θελεις συντριψει, και τας εγκυμονουσας αυτων θελεις διασχισει.
13 And Hazael said, “But what am I, your servant, a dog, that I would do this great thing?” And Elisha said, “The Lord has revealed to me that you will be the king of Syria.”	13 Και ειπεν ο Αζαηλ, Αλλα τι ειναι ο δουλος σου, ο κυων, ωστε να καμη το μεγα τουτο πραγμα; Και ειπεν ο Ελισσαιε, Ο Κυριος εδειξεν εις εμε, οτι συ θελεις βασιλευσει επι της Συριας.
14 And when he had departed from Elisha, he went to his lord, who said to him, “What did Elisha say to you?” And he responded: “He said to me, ‘You shall receive health.’ ”	14 Τοτε ανεχωρησεν απο του Ελισσαιε και ηλθε προς τον κυριον αυτου? ο δε ειπε προς αυτον, Τι σοι ειπεν ο Ελισσαιε; Και απεκριθη, Μοι ειπε, Ναι, θελεις αναλαβει.
15 And when the next day had arrived, he took a small covering, and poured water on it, and he spread it over his face. And when he died, Hazael reigned in his place.	15 Την δε ακολουθον ημεραν ελαβε το σκεπασμα και εμβαψας εις υδωρ, εξηπλωσεν επι του προσωπου αυτου? και απεθανε? και αντ' αυτου εβασιλευσεν ο Αζαηλ.
16 In the fifth year of Joram, the son of Ahab, the king of Israel, and of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah: Jehoram, the son of Jehoshaphat, reigned as the king of Judah.	16 Εν δε τω πεμπτω ετει του Ιωραμ, υιου του Αχααβ βασιλεως του Ισραηλ, βασιλευοντος Ιωσαφατ επι του Ιουδα, εβασιλευσεν Ιωραμ, ο υιος του Ιωσαφατ βασιλεως του Ιουδα.
17 He was thirty-two years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for eight years in Jerusalem.	17 Τριακοντα δυο ετων ηλικιας ητο οτε εβασιλευσεν? εβασιλευσε δε οκτω ετη εν Ιερουσαλημ.
18 And he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had walked. For the daughter of Ahab was his wife. And he did what was evil in the sight of the Lord.	18 Και περιεπατησεν εν τη οδω των βασιλεων του Ισραηλ, καθως επραξεν ο οικος του Αχααβ? διοτι η θυγατηρ του Αχααβ ητο γυνη αυτου? και επραξε πονηρα ενωπιον του Κυριου.
19 But the Lord was not willing to destroy Judah, because of David, his servant, just as he had promised him, so that he might grant a light to him and to his sons, for all days.	19 Αλλ' ο Κυριος δεν ηθελησε να εξολοθρευση τον Ιουδαν, χαριν Δαβιδ του δουλου αυτου, καθως ειπε προς αυτον οτι θελει δωσει εις αυτον λυχνον και εις τους υιους αυτου εις τον αιωνα.
20 In his days, Idumea drew apart, so as not to be under Judah, and they appointed a king for themselves.	20 Εν ταις ημεραις αυτου απεστατησεν ο Εδωμ απο της υποταγης του Ιουδα, και κατεστησαν βασιλεα εφ' εαυτων.
21 And so, Jehoram went to Zair, and all the chariots with him. And he rose up in the night, and he struck down the Idumeans who had surrounded him, and the leaders of the chariots. But the people fled to their tents.	21 Οθεν διεβη ο Ιωραμ εις Σαειρ, και πασαι αι αμαξαι μετ' αυτου? και σηκωθεις δια νυκτος, επαταξε τους Ιδουμαιους τους κυκλω αυτου και τους αμαξαρχας? ο δε λαος εφυγον εις τας σκηνας αυτων.
22 And Idumea drew apart, so as not to be under Judah, even to this day. Then Libnah also drew apart, at the same time.	22 Πλην ο Εδωμ απεστατησεν απο της υποταγης του Ιουδα, εως της ημερας ταυτης. Τοτε κατα τον αυτον καιρον απεστατησεν η Λιβνα.
23 Now the rest of the words of Jehoram, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?	23 Αι δε λοιπαι πραξεις του Ιωραμ και παντα οσα επραξε, δεν ειναι γεγραμμενα εν τω βιβλιω των χρονικων των βασιλεων του Ιουδα;
24 And Jehoram slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David. And Ahaziah, his son, reigned in his place.	24 Και εκοιμηθη ο Ιωραμ μετα των πατερων αυτου και εταφη μετα των πατερων αυτου εν τη πολει Δαβιδ? εβασιλευσε δε αντ' αυτου Οχοζιας ο υιος αυτου.
25 In the twelfth year of Joram, the son of Ahab, the king of Israel: Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, the king of Judah, reigned.	25 Εν τω δωδεκατω ετει του Ιωραμ, υιου του Αχααβ βασιλεως του Ισραηλ, εβασιλευσεν Οχοζιας, ο υιος του Ιωραμ βασιλεως του Ιουδα.
26 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for one year in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri, the king of Israel.	26 Εικοσιδυο ετων ηλικιας ητο ο Οχοζιας οτε εβασιλευσεν? εβασιλευσε δε εν ετος εν Ιερουσαλημ. Και το ονομα της μητρος αυτου ητο Γοθολια, θυγατηρ του Αμρι, βασιλεως του Ισραηλ.
27 And he walked in the ways of the house of Ahab. And he did what is evil before the Lord, just as the house of Ahab did. For he was the son-in-law of the house of Ahab.	27 Και περιεπατησεν εν τη οδω του οικου του Αχααβ, και επραξε πονηρα ενωπιον του Κυριου, καθως ο οικος του Αχααβ? διοτι ητο γαμβρος του οικου του Αχααβ.
28 Also, he went with Joram, the son of Ahab, in order to fight against Hazael, the king of Syria, at Ramoth Gilead. And the Syrians had wounded Joram.	28 Και υπηγε μετα του Ιωραμ υιου του Αχααβ εις πολεμον εναντιον του Αζαηλ βασιλεως της Συριας εις Ραμωθ-γαλααδ? και ετραυματισαν οι Συριοι τον Ιωραμ.
29 And he turned back, so that he might be cured at Jezreel. For the Syrians had wounded him at Ramoth, fighting against Hazael, the king of Syria. Then Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, the king of Judah, descended to visit Joram, the son of Ahab, at Jezreel, because he was sick there.	29 Και επεστρεψεν ο βασιλευς Ιωραμ δια να ιατρευθη εν Ιεζραελ απο των τραυματων, τα οποια οι Συριοι εκαμον εις αυτον εν Ραμα, οτε επολεμει εναντιον του Αζαηλ βασιλεως της Συριας. Οχοζιας δε ο υιος του Ιωραμ, βασιλευς του Ιουδα, κατεβη δια να ιδη τον Ιωραμ υιον του Αχααβ εν Ιεζραελ, διοτι ητο αρρωστος.
