Löydetty 1930 Tulokset: Choosing A King
Then the Lord said to him, Retrace thy journey through the desert all the way to Damascus, and there anoint Hazael to be king of Syria. (1 Kings 19, 15)
Over Israel, too, thou shalt anoint a king, Jehu the son of Namsi. And for thyself, thou shalt anoint a new prophet, Eliseus, the son of Saphat, from Abel-Meula, to take thy place. (1 Kings 19, 16)
After this, Benadad king of Syria mustered his whole army, with thirty-two princes at its head, mustered all his horses and chariots, and would take Samaria by siege. (1 Kings 20, 1)
Achab, king of Israel, was within the city; (1 Kings 20, 2)
My lord king, answered Achab, I accept thy terms; all that I have is at thy disposal. (1 Kings 20, 4)
Thereupon the king of Israel summoned all the elders of his land; Mark well, he said, how craftily this man deals with us; this is my reward for consenting to give up wives and sons, silver and gold, at his demand. (1 Kings 20, 7)
Achab, then, thus answered Benadad’s messengers, Tell my lord the king, I am thy servant, and ready to carry out that first demand of thine; but this I cannot grant. (1 Kings 20, 9)
To that, the king of Israel made reply, Boast he may who ungirds, not he who girds for battle. (1 Kings 20, 11)
And now a prophet came with a message from the Lord to Achab, king of Israel: Thou canst see for thyself what a great multitude of warriors is here; over all that multitude I mean to give thee victory this day, and prove to thee that I am the Lord. (1 Kings 20, 13)
and none but slew the first enemy he met; so that the Syrians were routed, and Israel went in pursuit of them. Benadad king of Syria escaped on horse-back among his cavalry, (1 Kings 20, 20)
and still horse and chariot fell before the king of Israel’s sally, till he won a great victory over the men of Syria. (1 Kings 20, 21)
But the prophet sought him out again and warned him, Go back and strengthen thy forces; take good heed what thou art doing; in this next year the king of Syria will be marching against thee. (1 Kings 20, 22)
