And the king arose in the night， and said unto his servants， I will now shew you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we be hungry； therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field， saying， When they come out of the city， we shall catch them alive， and get into the city.

　　7：13 有一个臣仆对王说，我们不如用城里剩下之马中的五匹马（马和城里剩下的以色列人都是一样，快要灭绝），打发人去窥探。

　　And one of his servants answered and said， Let some take， I pray thee， five of the horses that remain， which are left in the city， （behold， they are as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it： behold， I say， they are even as all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed：） and let us send and see.

　　7：14 于是取了两辆车和马，王差人去追寻亚兰军，说，你们去窥探窥探。

　　They took therefore two chariot horses； and the king sent after the host of the Syrians， saying， Go and see.

　　7：15 他们就追寻到约旦河，看见满道上都是亚兰人急跑时丢弃的衣服器具，使者就回来报告王。

　　And they went after them unto Jordan： and， lo， all the way was full of garments and vessels， which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned， and told the king.

　　7：16 众人就出去，掳掠亚兰人的营盘。于是一细亚细面卖银一舍客勒，二细亚大麦也卖银一舍客勒，正如耶和华所说的。

　　And the people went out， and spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel， and two measures of barley for a shekel， according to the word of the LORD.

　　7：17 王派搀扶他的那军长在城门口弹压，众人在那里将他践踏，他就死了，正如神人在王下来见他的时候所说的。

　　And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate： and the people trode upon him in the gate， and he died， as the man of God had said， who spake when the king came down to him.

　　7：18 神人曾对王说，明日约到这时候，在撒马利亚城门口，二细亚大麦要卖银一舍客勒，一细亚细面也要卖银一舍客勒。

　　And it came to pass as the man of God had spoken to the king， saying， Two measures of barley for a shekel， and a measure of fine flour for a shekel， shall be to morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria：

　　7：19 那军长对神人说，即便耶和华使天开了窗户，也不能有这事。神人说，你必亲眼看见，却不得吃。

　　And that lord answered the man of God， and said， Now， behold， if the LORD should make windows in heaven， might such a thing be？ And he said， Behold， thou shalt see it with thine eyes， but shalt not eat thereof.

　　7：20 这话果然应验在他身上。因为众人在城门口将他践踏，他就死了。

　　And so it fell out unto him： for the people trode upon him in the gate， and he died.
