2：18以利沙仍然在耶利哥等候他们回到他那里。他对他们说，我岂没有告诉你们不必去吗。
And when they came again to him； （for he tarried at Jericho；） he said unto them； Did I not say unto you； Go not？
2：19耶利哥城的人对以利沙说，这城的地势美好，我主看见了。只是水恶劣，土产不熟而落。
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。
2：20以利沙说，你们拿一个新瓶来，装盐给我。他们就拿来给他。
And he said； Bring me a new cruse； and put salt therein。 And they brought it to him。
2：21他出到水源，将盐倒在水中，说，耶和华如此说，我治好了这水，从此必不再使人死，也不再使地土不生产。
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。
2：22于是那水治好了，直到今日，正如以利沙所说的。
So the waters were healed unto this day； according to the saying of Elisha which he spake。
2：23以利沙从那里上伯特利去，正上去的时候，有些童子从城里出来，戏笑他说，秃头的上去吧。秃头的上去吧。
And he went up from thence unto Bethel： 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。
2：24他回头看见，就奉耶和华的名咒诅他们。于是有两个母熊从林中出来，撕裂他们中间四十二个童子。
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。
2：25以利沙从伯特利上迦密山，又从迦密山回到撒马利亚。
And he went from thence to mount Carmel； and from thence he returned to Samaria。
旧约 列王记下（2 Kings） 第 3 章 （ 本篇共有 25 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
3：1犹大王约沙法十八年，亚哈的儿子约兰在撒马利亚登基作了以色列王十二年。
Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah； and reigned twelve years。
3：2他行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，但不至像他父母所行的，因为除掉他父所造巴力的柱像。
And he wrought evil in the sight of the LORD； but not like his father； and like his mother： for he put away the image of Baal that his father had made。
3：3然而，他贴近尼八的儿子耶罗波安使以色列人陷在罪里的那罪，总不离开。
Nevertheless he cleaved unto the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat； which made Israel to sin； he departed not therefrom。
3：4摩押王米沙牧养许多羊，每年将十万羊羔的毛和十万公绵羊的毛给以色列王进贡。
And Mesha king of Moab was a sheepmaster； and rendered unto the king of Israel an hundred thousand lambs； and an hundred thousand rams； with the wool。
3：5亚哈死后，摩押王背叛以色列王。
But it came to pass； when Ahab was dead； that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel。
3：6那时约兰王出撒马利亚，数点以色列众人。
And king Jehoram went out of Samaria the same time； and numbered all Israel。
3：7前行的时候，差人去见犹大王约沙法，说，摩押王背叛我，你肯同我去攻打摩押吗。他说，我肯上去，你我不分彼此，我的民与你的民一样，我的马与你的马一样。
And he went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah； saying； The king of Moab hath rebelled against me： wilt thou go with me against Moab to battle？ And he said； I will go up： I am as thou art； my people as thy people； and my horses as thy horses。
3：8约兰说，我们从哪条路上去呢。回答说，从以东旷野的路上去。
And he said； Which way shall we go up？ And he answered； The way through the wilderness of Edom。
3：9于是，以色列王和犹大王，并以东王，都一同去绕行七日的路程。军队和所带的牲畜没有水喝。
So the king of Israel went； and the king of Judah； and the king of Edom： and they fetched a pass of seven days' journey： and there was no water for the host； and for the cattle that followed them。
3：10以色列王说，哀哉。耶和华招聚我们这三王，乃要交在摩押人的手里。
And the king of Israel said； Alas！ that the LORD hath called these three kings together； to deliver them into the hand of Moab！
3：11约沙法说，这里不是有耶和华的先知吗。我们可以托他求问耶和华。以色列王的一个臣子回答说，这里有沙法的儿子以利沙，就是从前服事以利亚的（原文作倒水在以利亚手上的）。
But Jehoshaphat said； Is there not here a prophet of the LORD； that we may enquire of the LORD by him？ And one of the king of Israel's servants answered and said； Here is Elisha the son of Shaphat； which poured water on the hands of Elijah。
3：12约沙法说，他必有耶和华的话。于是以色列王和约沙法，并以东王都下去见他。
And Jehoshaphat said； The word of the LORD is with him。 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him。
3：13以利沙对以色列王说，我与你何干。去问你父亲的先知和你母亲的先知吧。以色列王对他说，不要这样说，耶和华招聚我们这三王，乃要交在摩押人的手里。
And Elisha said unto the king of Israel； What have I to do with thee？ get thee to the prophets of thy father； and to the prophets of thy mother。 And the king of Israel said unto him； Nay： for the LORD hath called these three kings together； to deliver them into the hand of Moab。
3：14以利沙说，我指着所事奉永生的万军耶和华起誓，我若不看犹大王约沙法的情面，必不理你，不顾你。
And Elisha said； As the LORD of hosts liveth； before whom I stand； surely； were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah； I would not look toward thee； nor see thee。
3：15现在你们给我找一个弹琴的来。弹琴的时候，耶和华的灵（原文作手）就降在以利沙身上。
But now bring me a minstrel。 And it came to pass； when the minstrel played； that the hand of the LORD came upon him。
3：16他便说，耶和华如此说，你们要在这谷中满处挖沟。
And he said； Thus saith the LORD； Make this valley full of ditches。
3：17因为耶和华如此说，你们虽不见风，不见雨，这谷必满了水，使你们和牲畜有水喝。
For thus saith the LORD； Ye shall not see wind； neither shall ye see rain； yet that valley shall be filled with water； that ye may drink； both ye； and your cattle； and your beasts。
3：18在耶和华眼中这还算为小事，他也必将摩押人交在你们手中。
And this is but a light thing in the sight of the LORD： he will deliver the Moabites also into your hand。
3：19你们必攻破一切坚城美邑，砍伐各种佳树，塞住一切水泉，用石头糟踏一切美田。
And ye shall smite every fenced city； and every choice city； and shall fell
