Eliseu salva três reis e os seus exércitos
3 E Jorão, filho de Acabe, começou a reinar sobre Israel, em Samaria, no décimo oitavo ano de Josafá, rei de Judá; e reinou doze anos. 2 E fez o que era mau aos olhos do Senhor; porém não como seu pai, nem como sua mãe; porque tirou a estátua de Baal, que seu pai fizera. 3 Contudo, aderiu aos pecados de Jeroboão, filho de Nebate, que fizera pecar a Israel; não se apartou deles.
4 Então, Mesa, rei dos moabitas, era contratador de gado e pagava ao rei de Israel cem mil cordeiros, e cem mil carneiros com a sua lã. 5 Sucedeu, porém, que, morrendo Acabe, se revoltou o rei dos moabitas contra o rei de Israel. 6 Por isso, Jorão, ao mesmo tempo, saiu de Samaria e fez revista de todo o Israel. 7 E foi e enviou a Josafá, rei de Judá, dizendo: O rei dos moabitas se revoltou contra mim; irás tu comigo à guerra contra os moabitas? E disse ele: Subirei e eu serei como tu, o meu povo, como o teu povo, e os meus cavalos, como os teus cavalos. 8 E ele disse: Por que caminho subiremos? Então disse ele: Pelo caminho do deserto de Edom.
9 E partiu o rei de Israel, e o rei de Judá, e o rei de Edom; e andaram rodeando com uma marcha de sete dias, e o exército e o gado que os seguia não tinham água. 10 Então, disse o rei de Israel: Ah! Que o Senhor chamou a estes três reis, para os entregar nas mãos dos moabitas. 11 E disse Josafá: Não há aqui algum profeta do Senhor, para que consultemos ao Senhor por ele? Então, respondeu um dos servos do rei de Israel e disse: Aqui está Eliseu, filho de Safate, que deitava água sobre as mãos de Elias. 12 E disse Josafá: Está com ele a palavra do Senhor. Então, o rei de Israel, e Josafá, e o rei de Edom desceram a ele.
13 Mas Eliseu disse ao rei de Israel: Que tenho eu contigo? Vai aos profetas de teu pai e aos profetas de tua mãe. Porém o rei de Israel lhe disse: Não, porque o Senhor chamou estes três reis para os entregar nas mãos dos moabitas. 14 E disse Eliseu: Vive o Senhor dos Exércitos, em cuja presença estou, que, se eu não respeitasse a presença de Josafá, rei de Judá, não olharia para ti nem te veria. 15 Ora, pois, trazei-me um tangedor. E sucedeu que, tangendo o tangedor, veio sobre ele a mão do Senhor. 16 E disse: Assim diz o Senhor: Fazei neste vale muitas covas. 17 Porque assim diz o Senhor: Não vereis vento e não vereis chuva; todavia, este vale se encherá de tanta água, que bebereis vós e o vosso gado e os vossos animais. 18 E ainda isto é pouco aos olhos do Senhor; também entregará ele os moabitas nas vossas mãos. 19 E ferireis todas as cidades fortes, e todas as cidades escolhidas, e todas as boas árvores cortareis, e tapareis todas as fontes de água, e danificareis com pedras todos os bons campos. 20 E sucedeu que, pela manhã, oferecendo-se a oferta de manjares, eis que vinham as águas pelo caminho de Edom; e a terra se encheu de água.
21 Ouvindo, pois, todos os moabitas que os reis tinham subido para pelejarem contra eles, convocaram a todos os que cingiam cinto e daí para cima e puseram-se às fronteiras. 22 E, levantando-se de madrugada, e saindo o sol sobre as águas, viram os moabitas defronte deles as águas vermelhas como sangue. 23 E disseram: Isto é sangue; certamente que os reis se destruíram à espada e se mataram um ao outro! Agora, pois, à presa, moabitas! 24 Porém, chegando eles ao arraial de Israel, os israelitas se levantaram, e feriram os moabitas, os quais fugiram diante deles; e ainda os feriram nas suas terras, ferindo ali também os moabitas. 25 E arrasaram as cidades, e cada um lançou a sua pedra em todos os bons campos, e os entulharam, e taparam todas as fontes de águas, e cortaram todas as boas árvores, até que só em Quir-Haresete deixaram ficar as pedras, mas os fundeiros a cercaram e a feriram. 26 Mas, vendo o rei dos moabitas que a peleja prevalecia contra ele, tomou consigo setecentos homens que arrancavam espada, para romperem contra o rei de Edom, porém não puderam. 27 Então, tomou a seu filho primogênito, que havia de reinar em seu lugar, e o ofereceu em holocausto sobre o muro; pelo que houve grande indignação em Israel; por isso, retiraram-se dele e voltaram para a sua terra.

Jorão, rei de Israel
3 Então Jorão, filho de Acabe, governou como rei de Israel em Samaria. Começou a reinar durante o ano dezoito do reinado de Josafá, rei de Judá. Jorão governou durante doze anos. 2 O que ele fazia não agradava ao SENHOR. Mesmo assim, não foi tão mau como seu pai nem como a sua mãe, porque tirou o pilar que tinha feito seu pai para adorar a Baal. 3 Nisto ele fez bem, mas cometeu os mesmos pecados de Jeroboão, filho de Nebate, que foram motivo para que os israelitas pecassem.
Moabe se rebela contra Israel
4 Messa, rei de Moabe, era criador de gado e tinha muitas ovelhas. Ele pagava ao rei de Israel 100.000 cordeiros e 100.000 ovelhas com a sua lã. 5 Mas quando morreu Acabe, o rei de Moabe se rebelou contra o rei de Israel. 6 Então Jorão saiu de Samaria tendo reunido a todos os homens de Israel. 7 Jorão mandou chamar a Josafá, rei de Judá, e lhe disse:
—O rei de Moabe se revoltou contra mim. Irá comigo para lutar contra Moabe?
Josafá respondeu:
—Sim, eu irei com você. Os meus soldados e os meus cavalos estão tão dispostos como os seus.
8 Josafá perguntou a Jorão:
—Por qual caminho iremos?
Jorão respondeu:
—Iremos pelo deserto de Edom.
9 Então o rei de Israel saiu junto com os reis de Judá e de Edom. Mas como tiveram que dar uma volta pelo deserto que durou sete dias, não houve água suficiente para o exército nem para os animais. 10 Finalmente o rei de Israel disse:
—Ai! O SENHOR trouxe a estes três reis para o deserto para nos entregar nas mãos dos moabitas.
11 Mas Josafá disse:
—Certamente um dos profetas do SENHOR está aqui, perguntemos a ele o que o SENHOR diz.
Um dos servos do rei de Israel disse:
—Eliseu, filho de Safate e servo de Elias, está aqui.
12 Josafá disse:
—A palavra do SENHOR está com Eliseu!
Então o rei de Israel, Josafá e o rei de Edom foram ver Eliseu.
13 Eliseu disse ao rei de Israel:
—O que tem você a ver comigo? Vá e consulte os profetas do seu pai e da sua mãe!
O rei de Israel disse a Eliseu:
—Me diga se é certo que o SENHOR nos ajuntou, nós três, para nos entregar aos moabitas.
14 Eliseu disse:
—Eu respeito Josafá, rei de Judá, e sirvo ao SENHOR Todo-Poderoso. Tão certo como Deus existe, que vim aqui só por Josafá. Se não fosse por ele, não obedeceria a você, nem sequer olharia para você. 15 Agora, chamem alguém para tocar a harpa.
Quando o músico começou a tocar a música, o poder[a] do SENHOR começou a operar por meio de Eliseu. 16 Então Eliseu disse:
—O SENHOR diz que cavem poços por todo este vale. 17 Assim diz o SENHOR: “Não verão um vento nem chuva; contudo, o vale ficará cheio de água e então vocês, seu gado e os seus outros animais terão água para beber. 18 E tudo isso é pouco aos olhos do SENHOR, quem também entregará Moabe nas mãos de vocês. 19 Atacarão todas as cidades fortificadas e importantes, cortarão todas as árvores boas, tamparão todos os poços de água e arruinarão toda a terra arável com pedras”.
20 No dia seguinte, na hora do sacrifício da manhã, começou a correr água desde Edom e encheu todo o vale.
21 Os moabitas ouviram que os reis tinham saído para combater contra eles. Por isso reuniram todos os homens em idade de cumprir o serviço militar e esperaram na fronteira. 22 Quando os moabitas se levantaram de madrugada, saiu o sol e o reflexo da água parecia sangue. 23 Os moabitas disseram:
—Vejam, sangue! Os reis devem ter lutado entre si e acabado um com o outro. Agora tudo o que era deles será nosso despojo de batalha.
24 Os moabitas se aproximaram do acampamento israelita, mas os israelitas contra-atacaram e os moabitas fugiram. Então os israelitas perseguiram os moabitas e acabaram com eles. 25 Destruíram as suas cidades, lançaram pedras na terra cultivável, tamparam os poços de água e cortaram todas as boas árvores. Continuaram a luta por todo o país, sitiaram a cidade de Quir-Haressete e a atacaram.
26 O rei de Moabe viu que a batalha piorava, portanto, pegou setecentos homens com espadas para abrir uma brecha e atacar o rei de Edom, mas fracassou. 27 Então o rei de Moabe pegou o seu filho mais velho, o herdeiro do trono, e o ofereceu como um sacrifício que deve ser queimado completamente. Isso deixou os israelitas tão chateados que abandonaram o ataque e voltaram para o seu país.

Moab Rebels Against Israel
3 Now (A)Jehoram the son of Ahab became king over Israel at Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years. 2 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, but not like his father and mother; for he put away the sacred pillar of Baal (B)that his father had made. 3 Nevertheless he persisted in (C)the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin; he did not depart from them.
4 Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheepbreeder, and he (D)regularly paid the king of Israel one hundred thousand (E)lambs and the wool of one hundred thousand rams. 5 But it happened, when (F)Ahab died, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
6 So King Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time and mustered all Israel. 7 Then he went and sent to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me to fight against Moab?”
And he said, “I will go up; (G)I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.” 8 Then he said, “Which way shall we go up?”
And he answered, “By way of the Wilderness of Edom.”
9 So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom, and they marched on that roundabout route seven days; and there was no water for the army, nor for the animals that followed them. 10 And the king of Israel said, “Alas! For the Lord has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”
11 But (H)Jehoshaphat said, “Is there no prophet of the Lord here, that we may inquire of the Lord by him?”
So one of the servants of the king of Israel answered and said, “Elisha the son of Shaphat is here, who (I)poured[a] water on the hands of Elijah.”
12 And Jehoshaphat said, “The word of the Lord is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom (J)went down to him.
13 Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, (K)“What have I to do with you? (L)Go to (M)the prophets of your father and the (N)prophets of your mother.”
But the king of Israel said to him, “No, for the Lord has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”
14 And Elisha said, (O)“As the Lord of hosts lives, before whom I stand, surely were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would not look at you, nor see you. 15 But now bring me (P)a musician.”
Then it happened, when the musician (Q)played, that (R)the hand of the Lord came upon him. 16 And he said, “Thus says the Lord: (S)‘Make this valley full of [b]ditches.’ 17 For thus says the Lord: ‘You shall not see wind, nor shall you see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, so that you, your cattle, and your animals may drink.’ 18 And this is a simple matter in the sight of the Lord; He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand. 19 Also you shall attack every fortified city and every choice city, and shall cut down every good tree, and stop up every spring of water, and ruin every good piece of land with stones.”
20 Now it happened in the morning, when (T)the grain offering was offered, that suddenly water came by way of Edom, and the land was filled with water.
21 And when all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, all who were able to bear arms and older were [c]gathered; and they stood at the border. 22 Then they rose up early in the morning, and the sun was shining on the water; and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood. 23 And they said, “This is blood; the kings have surely struck swords and have killed one another; now therefore, Moab, to the spoil!”
24 So when they came to the camp of Israel, Israel rose up and attacked the Moabites, so that they fled before them; and they entered their land, killing the Moabites. 25 Then they destroyed the cities, and each man threw a stone on every good piece of land and filled it; and they stopped up all the springs of water and cut down all the good trees. But they left the stones of (U)Kir Haraseth intact. However the slingers surrounded and attacked it.
26 And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too fierce for him, he took with him seven hundred men who drew swords, to break through to the king of Edom, but they could not. 27 Then (V)he took his eldest son who would have reigned in his place, and offered him as a burnt offering upon the wall; and there was great [d]indignation against Israel. (W)So they departed from him and returned to their own land.

Moab Revolts
3 Joram[a](A) son of Ahab became king of Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned twelve years. 2 He did evil(B) in the eyes of the Lord, but not as his father(C) and mother had done. He got rid of the sacred stone(D) of Baal that his father had made. 3 Nevertheless he clung to the sins(E) of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit; he did not turn away from them.
4 Now Mesha king of Moab(F) raised sheep, and he had to pay the king of Israel a tribute of a hundred thousand lambs(G) and the wool of a hundred thousand rams. 5 But after Ahab died, the king of Moab rebelled(H) against the king of Israel. 6 So at that time King Joram set out from Samaria and mobilized all Israel. 7 He also sent this message to Jehoshaphat king of Judah: “The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me to fight(I) against Moab?”
“I will go with you,” he replied. “I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.”
8 “By what route shall we attack?” he asked.
“Through the Desert of Edom,” he answered.
9 So the king of Israel set out with the king of Judah and the king of Edom.(J) After a roundabout march of seven days, the army had no more water for themselves or for the animals with them.
10 “What!” exclaimed the king of Israel. “Has the Lord called us three kings together only to deliver us into the hands of Moab?”
11 But Jehoshaphat asked, “Is there no prophet of the Lord here, through whom we may inquire(K) of the Lord?”
An officer of the king of Israel answered, “Elisha(L) son of Shaphat is here. He used to pour water on the hands of Elijah.[b](M)”
12 Jehoshaphat said, “The word(N) of the Lord is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.
13 Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Why do you want to involve me? Go to the prophets of your father and the prophets of your mother.”
“No,” the king of Israel answered, “because it was the Lord who called us three kings together to deliver us into the hands of Moab.”
14 Elisha said, “As surely as the Lord Almighty lives, whom I serve, if I did not have respect for the presence of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would not pay any attention to you. 15 But now bring me a harpist.”(O)
While the harpist was playing, the hand(P) of the Lord came on Elisha 16 and he said, “This is what the Lord says: I will fill this valley with pools of water. 17 For this is what the Lord says: You will see neither wind nor rain, yet this valley will be filled with water,(Q) and you, your cattle and your other animals will drink. 18 This is an easy(R) thing in the eyes of the Lord; he will also deliver Moab into your hands. 19 You will overthrow every fortified city and every major town. You will cut down every good tree, stop up all the springs, and ruin every good field with stones.”
20 The next morning, about the time(S) for offering the sacrifice, there it was—water flowing from the direction of Edom! And the land was filled with water.(T)
21 Now all the Moabites had heard that the kings had come to fight against them; so every man, young and old, who could bear arms was called up and stationed on the border. 22 When they got up early in the morning, the sun was shining on the water. To the Moabites across the way, the water looked red—like blood. 23 “That’s blood!” they said. “Those kings must have fought and slaughtered each other. Now to the plunder, Moab!”
24 But when the Moabites came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and fought them until they fled. And the Israelites invaded the land and slaughtered the Moabites. 25 They destroyed the towns, and each man threw a stone on every good field until it was covered. They stopped up all the springs and cut down every good tree. Only Kir Hareseth(U) was left with its stones in place, but men armed with slings surrounded it and attacked it.
26 When the king of Moab saw that the battle had gone against him, he took with him seven hundred swordsmen to break through to the king of Edom, but they failed. 27 Then he took his firstborn(V) son, who was to succeed him as king, and offered him as a sacrifice on the city wall. The fury against Israel was great; they withdrew and returned to their own land.
