20 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

35And a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his fellow at the command of Yahweh, "Strike me, I pray." But the man refused to strike him.Ahab & the prophets. 1Kgs.20.35-43וְאִישׁ אֶחָד מִבְּנֵי הַנְּבִיאִים אָמַר אֶל־רֵעֵהוּ בִּדְבַר יְהוָה הַכֵּינִי נָא וַיְמָאֵן הָאִישׁ לְהַכֹּתֹו׃
36Then he said to him, "Because you have not obeyed the voice of Yahweh, behold, as soon as you have gone from me, a lion shall kill you." And as soon as he had departed from him, a lion met him and killed him. וַיֹּאמֶר לֹו יַעַן אֲשֶׁר לֹא־שָׁמַעְתָּ בְּקֹול יְהוָה הִנְּךָ הֹולֵךְ מֵאִתִּי וְהִךְּךָ הָאַרְיֵה וַיֵּלֶךְ מֵאֶצְלֹו וַיִּמְצָאֵהוּ הָאַרְיֵה וַיַּכֵּהוּ׃
37Then he found another man, and said, "Strike me, I pray." And the man struck him, smiting and wounding him. וַיִּמְצָא אִישׁ אַחֵר וַיֹּאמֶר הַכֵּינִי נָא וַיַּכֵּהוּ הָאִישׁ הַכֵּה וּפָצֹעַ׃
38So the prophet departed, and waited for the king by the way, disguising himself with a bandage over his eyes. וַיֵּלֶךְ הַנָּבִיא וַיַּעֲמֹד לַמֶּלֶךְ עַל־הַדָּרֶךְ וַיִּתְחַפֵּשׂ בָּאֲפֵר עַל־עֵינָיו׃
39And as the king passed, he cried to the king and said, "Your servant went out into the midst of the battle; and behold, a soldier turned and brought a man to me, and said, 'Keep this man; if by any means he be missing, your life shall be for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.' וַיְהִי הַמֶּלֶךְ עֹבֵר וְהוּא צָעַק אֶל־הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֹּאמֶר עַבְדְּךָ יָצָא בְקֶרֶב־הַמִּלְחָמָה וְהִנֵּה־אִישׁ סָר וַיָּבֵא אֵלַי אִישׁ וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמֹר אֶת־הָאִישׁ הַזֶּה אִם־הִפָּקֵד יִפָּקֵד וְהָיְתָה נַפְשְׁךָ תַּחַת נַפְשֹׁו אֹו כִכַּר־כֶּסֶף תִּשְׁקֹול׃
40And as your servant was busy here and there, he was gone." The king of Israel said to him, "So shall your judgment be; you yourself have decided it." וַיְהִי עַבְדְּךָ עֹשֵׂה הֵנָּה וָהֵנָּה וְהוּא אֵינֶנּוּ וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו מֶלֶךְ־יִשְׂרָאֵל כֵּן מִשְׁפָּטֶךָ אַתָּה חָרָצְתָּ׃
41Then he made haste to take the bandage away from his eyes; and the king of Israel recognized him as one of the prophets. וַיְמַהֵר וַיָּסַר אֶת־הָאֲפֵר כ= מֵעַל ק= מֵעֲלֵי עֵינָיו וַיַּכֵּר אֹתֹו מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי מֵהַנְּבִאִים הוּא׃
42And he said to him, "Thus says Yahweh, 'Because you have let go out of your hand the man whom I had devoted to destruction, therefore your life shall go for his life, and your people for his people.' " וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה יַעַן שִׁלַּחְתָּ אֶת־אִישׁ־חֶרְמִי מִיָּד וְהָיְתָה נַפְשְׁךָ תַּחַת נַפְשֹׁו וְעַמְּךָ תַּחַת עַמֹּו׃
43And the king of Israel went to his house resentful and sullen, and came to Samaria. וַיֵּלֶךְ מֶלֶךְ־יִשְׂרָאֵל עַל־בֵּיתֹו סַר וְזָעֵף וַיָּבֹא שֹׁמְרֹונָה׃ ף

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
