6 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

6 1Now the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, "See, the place where we dwell under your charge is too small for us.Elisha & the axe-head. 2Kgs.6.1-7וַיֹּאמְרוּ בְנֵי־הַנְּבִיאִים אֶל־אֱלִישָׁע הִנֵּה־נָא הַמָּקֹום אֲשֶׁר אֲנַחְנוּ יֹשְׁבִים שָׁם לְפָנֶיךָ צַר מִמֶּנּוּ׃
2Let us go to the Jordan and each of us get there a log, and let us make a place for us to dwell there." And he answered, "Go." נֵלְכָה־נָּא עַד־הַיַּרְדֵּן וְנִקְחָה מִשָּׁם אִישׁ קֹורָה אֶחָת וְנַעֲשֶׂה־לָּנוּ שָׁם מָקֹום לָשֶׁבֶת שָׁם וַיֹּאמֶר לֵכוּ׃
3Then one of them said, "Be pleased to go with your servants." And he answered, "I will go." וַיֹּאמֶר הָאֶחָד הֹואֶל נָא וְלֵךְ אֶת־עֲבָדֶיךָ וַיֹּאמֶר אֲנִי אֵלֵךְ׃
4So he went with them. And when they came to the Jordan, they cut down trees. וַיֵּלֶךְ אִתָּם וַיָּבֹאוּ הַיַּרְדֵּנָה וַיִּגְזְרוּ הָעֵצִים׃
5But as one was felling a log, his axe head fell into the water; and he cried out, "Alas, my master! It was borrowed." וַיְהִי הָאֶחָד מַפִּיל הַקֹּורָה וְאֶת־הַבַּרְזֶל נָפַל אֶל־הַמָּיִם וַיִּצְעַק וַיֹּאמֶר אֲהָהּ אֲדֹנִי וְהוּא שָׁאוּל׃
6Then the man of God said, "Where did it fall?" When he showed him the place, he cut off a stick, and threw it in there, and made the iron float. וַיֹּאמֶר אִישׁ־הָאֱלֹהִים אָנָה נָפָל וַיַּרְאֵהוּ אֶת־הַמָּקֹום וַיִּקְצָב־עֵץ וַיַּשְׁלֶךְ־שָׁמָּה וַיָּצֶף הַבַּרְזֶל׃
7And he said, "Take it up." So he reached out his hand and took it. וַיֹּאמֶר הָרֶם לָךְ וַיִּשְׁלַח יָדֹו וַיִּקָּחֵהוּ׃ 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.
