1  And it came to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ when the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ would take up^{5927 853} Elijah⁴⁵² into heaven⁸⁰⁶⁴ by a whirlwind,⁵⁵⁹¹ that Elijah⁴⁵² went¹⁹⁸⁰ with Elisha⁴⁷⁷ from⁴⁴⁸⁰ Gilgal.¹⁵³⁷

2  And Elijah⁴⁵² said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Elisha,⁴⁷⁷ Tarry³⁴²⁷ here,⁶³¹¹ I pray thee;⁴⁹⁹⁴ for³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath sent⁷⁹⁷¹ me to⁵⁷⁰⁴ Bethel.¹⁰⁰⁸ And Elisha⁴⁷⁷ said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, As the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ liveth,²⁴¹⁶ and as thy soul⁵³¹⁵ liveth,²⁴¹⁶ I will not⁵¹⁸ leave⁵⁸⁰⁰ thee. So they went down³³⁸¹ to Bethel.¹⁰⁰⁸

3  And the sons¹¹²¹ of the prophets⁵⁰³⁰ that⁸³⁴ were at Bethel¹⁰⁰⁸ came forth³³¹⁸ to⁴¹³ Elisha,⁴⁷⁷ and said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ him, Knowest³⁰⁴⁵ thou that³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ will take away^{3947 853} thy master¹¹³ from^{4480 5921} thy head⁷²¹⁸ today?³¹¹⁷ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Yea,¹⁵⁷¹ I⁵⁸⁹ know³⁰⁴⁵ it; hold ye your peace.²⁸¹⁴

4  And Elijah⁴⁵² said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, Elisha,⁴⁷⁷ tarry³⁴²⁷ here,⁶³¹¹ I pray thee;⁴⁹⁹⁴ for³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath sent⁷⁹⁷¹ me to Jericho.³⁴⁰⁵ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ As the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ liveth,²⁴¹⁶ and as thy soul⁵³¹⁵ liveth,²⁴¹⁶ I will not⁵¹⁸ leave⁵⁸⁰⁰ thee. So they came⁹³⁵ to Jericho.³⁴⁰⁵

5  And the sons¹¹²¹ of the prophets⁵⁰³⁰ that⁸³⁴ were at Jericho³⁴⁰⁵ came⁵⁰⁶⁶ to⁴¹³ Elisha,⁴⁷⁷ and said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ him, Knowest³⁰⁴⁵ thou that³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ will take away^{3947 853} thy master¹¹³ from^{4480 5921} thy head⁷²¹⁸ today?³¹¹⁷ And he answered,⁵⁵⁹ Yea,¹⁵⁷¹ I⁵⁸⁹ know³⁰⁴⁵ it; hold ye your peace.²⁸¹⁴

6  And Elijah⁴⁵² said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, Tarry,³⁴²⁷ I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ here;⁶³¹¹ for³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath sent⁷⁹⁷¹ me to Jordan.³³⁸³ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ As the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ liveth,²⁴¹⁶ and as thy soul⁵³¹⁵ liveth,²⁴¹⁶ I will not⁵¹⁸ leave⁵⁸⁰⁰ thee. And they two⁸¹⁴⁷ went on.¹⁹⁸⁰

7  And fifty²⁵⁷² men³⁷⁶ of the sons^{4480 1121} of the prophets⁵⁰³⁰ went,¹⁹⁸⁰ and stood⁵⁹⁷⁵ to view^{4480 5048} afar off:^{4480 7350} and they two⁸¹⁴⁷ stood⁵⁹⁷⁵ by⁵⁹²¹ Jordan.³³⁸³

8  And Elijah⁴⁵² took^{3947 853} his mantle,¹⁵⁵ and wrapped it together,¹⁵⁶³ and smote^{5221 853} the waters,⁴³²⁵ and they were divided²⁶⁷³ hither²⁰⁰⁸ and thither,²⁰⁰⁸ so that they two⁸¹⁴⁷ went over⁵⁶⁷⁴ on dry ground.²⁷²⁴

9  And it came to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ when they were gone over,⁵⁶⁷⁴ that Elijah⁴⁵² said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Elisha,⁴⁷⁷ Ask⁷⁵⁹² what⁴¹⁰⁰ I shall do⁶²¹³ for thee, before²⁹⁶² I be taken away³⁹⁴⁷ from^{4480 5973} thee. And Elisha⁴⁷⁷ said,⁵⁵⁹ I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ let a double⁸¹⁴⁷ portion⁶³¹⁰ of thy spirit⁷³⁰⁷ be¹⁹⁶¹ upon⁴¹³ me.

10  And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Thou hast asked⁷⁵⁹² a hard thing:⁷¹⁸⁵ nevertheless, if⁵¹⁸ thou see⁷²⁰⁰ me when I am taken³⁹⁴⁷ from^{4480 854} thee, it shall be¹⁹⁶¹ so³⁶⁵¹ unto thee; but if⁵¹⁸ not,³⁶⁹ it shall not³⁸⁰⁸ be¹⁹⁶¹ so.

11  And it came to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ as they¹⁹⁹² still went on,¹⁹⁸⁰ and talked,¹⁶⁹⁶ that, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ there appeared a chariot⁷³⁹³ of fire,⁷⁸⁴ and horses⁵⁴⁸³ of fire,⁷⁸⁴ and parted⁶⁵⁰⁴ them both⁸¹⁴⁷ asunder;⁹⁹⁶ and Elijah⁴⁵² went up⁵⁹²⁷ by a whirlwind⁵⁵⁹¹ into heaven.⁸⁰⁶⁴

12  And Elisha⁴⁷⁷ saw⁷²⁰⁰ it, and he¹⁹³¹ cried,⁶⁸¹⁷ My father,¹ my father,¹ the chariot⁷³⁹³ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ and the horsemen⁶⁵⁷¹ thereof. And he saw⁷²⁰⁰ him no³⁸⁰⁸ more:⁵⁷⁵⁰ and he took hold²³⁸⁸ of his own clothes,⁸⁹⁹ and rent⁷¹⁶⁷ them in two⁸¹⁴⁷ pieces.⁷¹⁶⁸

13  He took up⁷³¹¹ also ⁸⁵³ the mantle¹⁵⁵ of Elijah⁴⁵² that⁸³⁴ fell⁵³⁰⁷ from^{4480 5921} him, and went back,⁷⁷²⁵ and stood⁵⁹⁷⁵ by⁵⁹²¹ the bank⁸¹⁹³ of Jordan;³³⁸³

14  And he took^{3947 853} the mantle¹⁵⁵ of Elijah⁴⁵² that⁸³⁴ fell⁵³⁰⁷ from^{4480 5921} him, and smote^{5221 853} the waters,⁴³²⁵ and said,⁵⁵⁹ Where³⁴⁶ is the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of Elijah?⁴⁵² and when he¹⁹³¹ also⁶³⁷ had smitten^{5221 853} the waters,⁴³²⁵ they parted²⁶⁷³ hither²⁰⁰⁸ and thither:²⁰⁰⁸ and Elisha⁴⁷⁷ went over.⁵⁶⁷⁴

15  And when the sons¹¹²¹ of the prophets⁵⁰³⁰ which⁸³⁴ were to view^{4480 5048} at Jericho³⁴⁰⁵ saw⁷²⁰⁰ him, they said,⁵⁵⁹ The spirit⁷³⁰⁷ of Elijah⁴⁵² doth rest⁵¹¹⁷ on⁵⁹²¹ Elisha.⁴⁷⁷ And they came⁹³⁵ to meet⁷¹²⁵ him, and bowed themselves⁷⁸¹² to the ground⁷⁷⁶ before him.

16  And they said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ him, Behold²⁰⁰⁹ now,⁴⁹⁹⁴ there be³⁴²⁶ with⁸⁵⁴ thy servants⁵⁶⁵⁰ fifty²⁵⁷² strong^{1121 2428} men;³⁷⁶ let them go,¹⁹⁸⁰ we pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ and seek^{1245 853} thy master:¹¹³ lest peradventure⁶⁴³⁵ the Spirit⁷³⁰⁷ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath taken him up,⁵³⁷⁵ and cast⁷⁹⁹³ him upon some²⁵⁹ mountain,²⁰²² or¹⁷⁶ into some²⁵⁹ valley.¹⁵¹⁶ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Ye shall not³⁸⁰⁸ send.⁷⁹⁷¹

17  And when they urged⁶⁴⁸⁴ him till⁵⁷⁰⁴ he was ashamed,⁹⁵⁴ he said,⁵⁵⁹ Send.⁷⁹⁷¹ They sent⁷⁹⁷¹ therefore fifty²⁵⁷² men;³⁷⁶ and they sought¹²⁴⁵ three⁷⁹⁶⁹ days,³¹¹⁷ but found⁴⁶⁷² him not.³⁸⁰⁸

18  And when they came again⁷⁷²⁵ to⁴¹³ him, (for he¹⁹³¹ tarried³⁴²⁷ at Jericho,)³⁴⁰⁵ he said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ them, Did I not³⁸⁰⁸ say⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ you, Go¹⁹⁸⁰ not?⁴⁰⁸

19  And the men³⁷⁶ of the city⁵⁸⁹² said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Elisha,⁴⁷⁷ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ the situation⁴¹⁸⁶ of this city⁵⁸⁹² is pleasant,²⁸⁹⁶ as⁸³⁴ my lord¹¹³ seeth:⁷²⁰⁰ but the water⁴³²⁵ is naught,⁷⁴⁵¹ and the ground⁷⁷⁶ barren.⁷⁹²¹

20  And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Bring³⁹⁴⁷ me a new²³¹⁹ cruse,⁶⁷⁴⁶ and put⁷⁷⁶⁰ salt⁴⁴¹⁷ therein.⁸⁰³³ And they brought³⁹⁴⁷ it to⁴¹³ him.

21  And he went forth³³¹⁸ unto⁴¹³ the spring⁴¹⁶¹ of the waters,⁴³²⁵ and cast⁷⁹⁹³ the salt⁴⁴¹⁷ in there,⁸⁰³³ and said,⁵⁵⁹ Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ I have healed⁷⁴⁹⁵ these⁴²⁸ waters;⁴³²⁵ there shall not³⁸⁰⁸ be¹⁹⁶¹ from thence^{4480 8033} any more⁵⁷⁵⁰ death⁴¹⁹⁴ or barren⁷⁹²¹ land.

22  So the waters⁴³²⁵ were healed⁷⁴⁹⁵ unto⁵⁷⁰⁴ this²⁰⁸⁸ day,³¹¹⁷ according to the saying¹⁶⁹⁷ of Elisha⁴⁷⁷ which⁸³⁴ he spoke.¹⁶⁹⁶

23  And he went up⁵⁹²⁷ from thence^{4480 8033} unto Bethel:¹⁰⁰⁸ and as he¹⁹³¹ was going up⁵⁹²⁷ by the way,¹⁸⁷⁰ there came forth³³¹⁸ little⁶⁹⁹⁶ children⁵²⁸⁸ out of⁴⁴⁸⁰ the city,⁵⁸⁹² and mocked⁷⁰⁴⁶ him, and said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, Go up,⁵⁹²⁷ thou bald head;⁷¹⁴² go up,⁵⁹²⁷ thou bald head.⁷¹⁴²

24  And he turned⁶⁴³⁷ back,³¹⁰ and looked⁷²⁰⁰ on them, and cursed⁷⁰⁴³ them in the name⁸⁰³⁴ of the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸ And there came forth³³¹⁸ two⁸¹⁴⁷ she bears¹⁶⁷⁷ out of⁴⁴⁸⁰ the wood,³²⁹³ and tore¹²³⁴ forty⁷⁰⁵ and two⁸¹⁴⁷ children³²⁰⁶ of⁴⁴⁸⁰ them.

25  And he went¹⁹⁸⁰ from thence^{4480 8033} to⁴¹³ mount²⁰²² Carmel,³⁷⁶⁰ and from thence^{4480 8033} he returned⁷⁷²⁵ to Samaria.⁸¹¹¹

1 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἀνάγειν κύριον τὸν Ηλιου ἐν συσσεισμῷ ὡς εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ηλιου καὶ Ελισαιε ἐκ Γαλγαλων

2 καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου πρὸς Ελισαιε κάθου δὴ ἐνταῦθα ὅτι κύριος ἀπέσταλκέν με ἕως Βαιθηλ καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε ζῇ κύριος καὶ ζῇ ἡ ψυχή σου εἰ καταλείψω σε καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Βαιθηλ

3 καὶ ἦλθον οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν προφητῶν οἱ ἐν Βαιθηλ πρὸς Ελισαιε καὶ εἶπον πρὸς αὐτόν εἰ ἔγνως ὅτι κύριος σήμερον λαμβάνει τὸν κύριόν σου ἐπάνωθεν τῆς κεφαλῆς σου καὶ εἶπεν κἀγὼ ἔγνωκα σιωπᾶτε

4 καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου πρὸς Ελισαιε κάθου δὴ ἐνταῦθα ὅτι κύριος ἀπέσταλκέν με εἰς Ιεριχω καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε ζῇ κύριος καὶ ζῇ ἡ ψυχή σου εἰ ἐγκαταλείψω σε καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Ιεριχω

5 καὶ ἤγγισαν οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν προφητῶν οἱ ἐν Ιεριχω πρὸς Ελισαιε καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς αὐτόν εἰ ἔγνως ὅτι σήμερον λαμβάνει κύριος τὸν κύριόν σου ἐπάνωθεν τῆς κεφαλῆς σου καὶ εἶπεν καί γε ἐγὼ ἔγνων σιωπᾶτε

6 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ηλιου κάθου δὴ ὧδε ὅτι κύριος ἀπέσταλκέν με ἕως τοῦ Ιορδάνου καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε ζῇ κύριος καὶ ζῇ ἡ ψυχή σου εἰ ἐγκαταλείψω σε καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν ἀμφότεροι

7 καὶ πεντήκοντα ἄνδρες υἱοὶ τῶν προφητῶν καὶ ἔστησαν ἐξ ἐναντίας μακρόθεν καὶ ἀμφότεροι ἔστησαν ἐπὶ τοῦ Ιορδάνου

8 καὶ ἔλαβεν Ηλιου τὴν μηλωτὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἵλησεν καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὸ ὕδωρ καὶ διῃρέθη τὸ ὕδωρ ἔνθα καὶ ἔνθα καὶ διέβησαν ἀμφότεροι ἐν ἐρήμῳ

9 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ διαβῆναι αὐτοὺς καὶ Ηλιου εἶπεν πρὸς Ελισαιε αἴτησαι τί ποιήσω σοι πρὶν ἢ ἀναλημφθῆναί με ἀπὸ σοῦ καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε γενηθήτω δὴ διπλᾶ ἐν πνεύματί σου ἐπ᾽ ἐμέ

10 καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου ἐσκλήρυνας τοῦ αἰτήσασθαι ἐὰν ἴδῃς με ἀναλαμβανόμενον ἀπὸ σοῦ καὶ ἔσται σοι οὕτως καὶ ἐὰν μή οὐ μὴ γένηται

11 καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῶν πορευομένων ἐπορεύοντο καὶ ἐλάλουν καὶ ἰδοὺ ἅρμα πυρὸς καὶ ἵπποι πυρὸς καὶ διέστειλαν ἀνὰ μέσον ἀμφοτέρων καὶ ἀνελήμφθη Ηλιου ἐν συσσεισμῷ ὡς εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν

12 καὶ Ελισαιε ἑώρα καὶ ἐβόα πάτερ πάτερ ἅρμα Ισραηλ καὶ ἱππεὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ εἶδεν αὐτὸν ἔτι καὶ ἐπελάβετο τῶν ἱματίων αὐτοῦ καὶ διέρρηξεν αὐτὰ εἰς δύο ῥήγματα

13 καὶ ὕψωσεν τὴν μηλωτὴν Ηλιου ἣ ἔπεσεν ἐπάνωθεν Ελισαιε καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ελισαιε καὶ ἔστη ἐπὶ τοῦ χείλους τοῦ Ιορδάνου

14 καὶ ἔλαβεν τὴν μηλωτὴν Ηλιου ἣ ἔπεσεν ἐπάνωθεν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὸ ὕδωρ καὶ οὐ διέστη καὶ εἶπεν ποῦ ὁ θεὸς Ηλιου αφφω καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὰ ὕδατα καὶ διερράγησαν ἔνθα καὶ ἔνθα καὶ διέβη Ελισαιε

15 καὶ εἶδον αὐτὸν οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν προφητῶν οἱ ἐν Ιεριχω ἐξ ἐναντίας καὶ εἶπον ἐπαναπέπαυται τὸ πνεῦμα Ηλιου ἐπὶ Ελισαιε καὶ ἦλθον εἰς συναντὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ προσεκύνησαν αὐτῷ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν

16 καὶ εἶπον πρὸς αὐτόν ἰδοὺ δὴ μετὰ τῶν παίδων σου πεντήκοντα ἄνδρες υἱοὶ δυνάμεως πορευθέντες δὴ ζητησάτωσαν τὸν κύριόν σου μήποτε ἦρεν αὐτὸν πνεῦμα κυρίου καὶ ἔρριψεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ Ιορδάνῃ ἢ ἐφ᾽ ἓν τῶν ὀρέων ἢ ἐφ᾽ ἕνα τῶν βουνῶν καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε οὐκ ἀποστελεῖτε

17 καὶ παρεβιάσαντο αὐτὸν ἕως ὅτου ᾐσχύνετο καὶ εἶπεν ἀποστείλατε καὶ ἀπέστειλαν πεντήκοντα ἄνδρας καὶ ἐζήτησαν τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ οὐχ εὗρον αὐτόν

18 καὶ ἀνέστρεψαν πρὸς αὐτόν καὶ αὐτὸς ἐκάθητο ἐν Ιεριχω καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε οὐκ εἶπον πρὸς ὑμᾶς μὴ πορευθῆτε

19 καὶ εἶπον οἱ ἄνδρες τῆς πόλεως πρὸς Ελισαιε ἰδοὺ ἡ κατοίκησις τῆς πόλεως ἀγαθή καθὼς ὁ κύριος βλέπει καὶ τὰ ὕδατα πονηρὰ καὶ ἡ γῆ ἀτεκνουμένη

20 καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε λάβετέ μοι ὑδρίσκην καινὴν καὶ θέτε ἐκεῖ ἅλα καὶ ἔλαβον πρὸς αὐτόν

21 καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ελισαιε εἰς τὴν διέξοδον τῶν ὑδάτων καὶ ἔρριψεν ἐκεῖ ἅλα καὶ εἶπεν τάδε λέγει κύριος ἴαμαι τὰ ὕδατα ταῦτα οὐκ ἔσται ἔτι ἐκεῖθεν θάνατος καὶ ἀτεκνουμένη

22 καὶ ἰάθησαν τὰ ὕδατα ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα Ελισαιε ὃ ἐλάλησεν

23 καὶ ἀνέβη ἐκεῖθεν εἰς Βαιθηλ καὶ ἀναβαίνοντος αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ καὶ παιδάρια μικρὰ ἐξῆλθον ἐκ τῆς πόλεως καὶ κατέπαιζον αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπον αὐτῷ ἀνάβαινε φαλακρέ ἀνάβαινε

24 καὶ ἐξένευσεν ὀπίσω αὐτῶν καὶ εἶδεν αὐτὰ καὶ κατηράσατο αὐτοῖς ἐν ὀνόματι κυρίου καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐξῆλθον δύο ἄρκοι ἐκ τοῦ δρυμοῦ καὶ ἀνέρρηξαν ἐξ αὐτῶν τεσσαράκοντα καὶ δύο παῖδας

25 καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐκεῖθεν εἰς τὸ ὄρος τὸ Καρμήλιον καὶ ἐκεῖθεν ἐπέστρεψεν εἰς Σαμάρειαν

1 Factum est autem cum levare vellet Dominus Eliam per turbinem in cælum, ibant Elias et Eliseus de Galgalis.

2 Dixitque Elias ad Eliseum: Sede hic, quia Dominus misit me usque in Bethel. Cui ait Eliseus: Vivit Dominus, et vivit anima tua, quia non derelinquam te. Cumque descendissent Bethel,

3 egressi sunt filii prophetarum qui erant in Bethel, ad Eliseum, et dixerunt ei: Numquid nosti quia hodie Dominus tollet dominum tuum a te? Qui respondit: Et ego novi: silete.

4 Dixit autem Elias ad Eliseum: Sede hic, quia Dominus misit me in Jericho. Et ille ait: Vivit Dominus, et vivit anima tua, quia non derelinquam te. Cumque venissent Jericho,

5 accesserunt filii prophetarum qui erant in Jericho, ad Eliseum, et dixerunt ei: Numquid nosti quia Dominus hodie tollet dominum tuum a te? Et ait: Ego novi: silete.

6 Dixit autem ei Elias: Sede hic, quia Dominus misit me usque ad Jordanem. Qui ait: Vivit Dominus, et vivit anima tua, quia non derelinquam te. Ierunt igitur ambo pariter,

7 et quinquaginta viri de filiis prophetarum secuti sunt eos, qui et steterunt e contra, longe: illi autem ambo stabant super Jordanem.

8 Tulitque Elias pallium suum, et involvit illud, et percussit aquas: quæ divisæ sunt in utramque partem, et transierunt ambo per siccum.

9 Cumque transissent, Elias dixit ad Eliseum: Postula quod vis ut faciam tibi, antequam tollar a te. Dixitque Eliseus: Obsecro ut fiat in me duplex spiritus tuus.

10 Qui respondit: Rem difficilem postulasti: attamen si videris me quando tollar a te, erit tibi quod petisti: si autem non videris, non erit.

11 Cumque pergerent, et incedentes sermocinarentur, ecce currus igneus, et equi ignei diviserunt utrumque: et ascendit Elias per turbinem in cælum.

12 Eliseus autem videbat, et clamabat: Pater mi, pater mi, currus Israël, et auriga ejus. Et non vidit eum amplius: apprehenditque vestimenta sua, et scidit illa in duas partes.

13 Et levavit pallium Eliæ, quod ceciderat ei: reversusque stetit super ripam Jordanis,

14 et pallio Eliæ, quod ceciderat ei, percussit aquas, et non sunt divisæ: et dixit: Ubi est Deus Eliæ etiam nunc? Percussitque aquas, et divisæ sunt huc atque illuc, et transiit Eliseus.

15 Videntes autem filii prophetarum qui erant in Jericho e contra, dixerunt: Requievit spiritus Eliæ super Eliseum. Et venientes in occursum ejus, adoraverunt eum proni in terram,

16 dixeruntque illi: Ecce cum servis tuis sunt quinquaginta viri fortes qui possunt ire, et quærere dominum tuum, ne forte tulerit eum spiritus Domini, et projecerit eum in unum montium, aut in unam vallium. Qui ait: Nolite mittere.

17 Coëgeruntque eum donec acquiesceret, et diceret: Mittite. Et miserunt quinquaginta viros: qui cum quæsissent tribus diebus, non invenerunt.

18 Et reversi sunt ad eum: at ille habitabat in Jericho, et dixit eis: Numquid non dixi vobis: Nolite mittere?

19 Dixerunt quoque viri civitatis ad Eliseum: Ecce habitatio civitatis hujus optima est, sicut tu ipse, domine, perspicis: sed aquæ pessimæ sunt, et terra sterilis.

20 At ille ait: Afferte mihi vas novum, et mittite in illud sal. Quod cum attulissent,

21 egressus ad fontem aquarum misit in illum sal, et ait: Hæc dicit Dominus: Sanavi aquas has, et non erit ultra in eis mors, neque sterilitas.

22 Sanatæ sunt ergo aquæ usque in diem hanc, juxta verbum Elisei quod locutus est.

23 Ascendit autem inde in Bethel: cumque ascenderet per viam, pueri parvi egressi sunt de civitate, et illudebant ei, dicentes: Ascende calve, ascende calve.

24 Qui cum respexisset, vidit eos, et maledixit eis in nomine Domini: egressique sunt duo ursi de saltu, et laceraverunt ex eis quadraginta duos pueros.

25 Abiit autem inde in montem Carmeli, et inde reversus est in Samariam.
