以利沙答道：「不可殺他們。豈可殺從戰場上抓來的俘虜呢？給他們吃的喝的，讓他們回自己主人那裡吧。」

回答说：“不可击杀他们！就是你用刀用弓掳来的，岂可击杀他们吗？当在他们面前设摆饮食，使他们吃喝回到他们的主人那里。”

他说：“不可击杀！这些人岂是你用刀用弓掳来给你击杀的呢？当在他们面前摆设饮食给他们吃喝，让他们回到他们主人那里。”

他说：“不可击杀！这些人岂是你用刀用弓掳来给你击杀的呢？当在他们面前摆设饮食给他们吃喝，让他们回到他们主人那里。”

以利沙答道：“不可杀他们。岂可杀从战场上抓来的俘虏呢？给他们吃的喝的，让他们回自己主人那里吧。”

以利沙说：“你不可击杀他们。你可以击杀你自己用刀用弓掳回来的人吗？你要在他们面前摆上食物和水，给他们吃喝，然后回到他们的主人那里去。”

回答說：「不可擊殺他們！就是你用刀用弓擄來的，豈可擊殺他們嗎？當在他們面前設擺飲食，使他們吃喝回到他們的主人那裏。」

以利沙說：“你不可擊殺他們。你可以擊殺你自己用刀用弓擄回來的人嗎？你要在他們面前擺上食物和水，給他們吃喝，然後回到他們的主人那裡去。”

以利沙說：『不可擊殺他們；你用刀用弓擄來的、哪裏可以擊殺他們呢？你要在他們面前擺設食物和水，讓他們喫喝，然後回到他們的主上那裏。』

曰、不可擊之、以刃以弓所虜者、可擊之乎、當陳餅與水於其前、使之飲食、而返其主、

曰不可、即使以刃以弓虜之而至、亦不可擊、當供以餅、給以水、使其飲食、而歸其王。

曰、不可擊、即爾以刀以弓所擄者、亦不可擊、當供以餅與水、使其飲食歸其主王、

“ Do not kill them,” he answered.“ Would you kill those you have captured with your own sword or bow? Set food and water before them so that they may eat and drink and then go back to their master.”

“ Don’t kill them,” he answered.“ Would you kill people you have captured with your own sword or bow? Put some food and water in front of them. Then they can eat and drink. They can go back to their master.”

He answered,“ You shall not strike them down. Would you strike down those whom you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink and go to their master.”

“ Of course not!” Elisha replied.“ Do we kill prisoners of war? Give them food and drink and send them home again to their master.”

Elisha replied,“ Don’t kill them. Do you kill those you have captured with your sword or your bow? Set food and water in front of them so they can eat and drink and go to their master.”

But he answered,“ You shall not kill them. Would you kill those whom you have taken captive with your sword and your bow? Set bread and water before them, so that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.”

But he answered,“ You shall not kill them. Would you kill those whom you have taken captive with your sword and your bow? Set food and water before them, that they may eat and drink and go to their master.”

And he answered, Thou shalt not smite them: wouldest thou smite those whom thou hast taken captive with thy sword and with thy bow? set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.

Elisha replied,“ Don’t kill them. Do you kill those you have captured with your sword or your bow? Set food and water in front of them so they can eat and drink and go to their master.”

And he answered, Thou shalt not smite[ them]: wouldest thou smite those whom thou hast taken captive with thy sword and with thy bow? set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.

He replied,“ Do not strike them down! You did not capture them with your sword or bow, so what gives you the right to strike them down? Give them some food and water, so they can eat and drink and then go back to their master.”

He answered,“ You shall not strike them. Would you strike those whom you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.”

我要把我用刀和弓從亞摩利人手上奪來的那塊地留給你，讓你比其他弟兄多得一份。」

所以，「你的仇敵若餓了，就給他吃的；若渴了，就給他喝的；你這樣做是把炭火堆在他頭上。」你不可被惡所勝，反要以善勝惡。

那時，我要跟田間的走獸、空中的飛鳥及地上的爬蟲立約，使牠們不再傷害你。我要在你境內毀滅戰弓和刀劍，止息戰事，使你安居樂業。

但我告訴你們，要愛仇敵，為迫害你們的人禱告。

你的仇敵若餓了，就給他吃的；若渴了，就給他水喝；因為你這是把炭火堆在他頭上，耶和華必獎賞你。

我不倚靠我的弓，我的劍不能使我得勝。

但我要憐憫猶大家，使他們依靠他們的上帝耶和華得到拯救，而不是依靠戰弓、刀劍、馬匹、騎兵和戰爭。」

我差黃蜂飛在你們前面，把亞摩利的兩個王從你們面前趕走，沒有動用你們一刀一弓。

以色列軍隊從他們的猶大同胞中擄走了二十萬婦孺，同時也將大量戰利品帶回撒瑪利亞。撒瑪利亞有一位耶和華的先知名叫俄德，他出城去迎接班師回來的軍隊，說：「看啊，你們祖先的上帝耶和華向猶大發怒，才將他們交在你們手中。你們竟怒氣衝天，對他們大加殺戮。現在你們竟還想讓猶大和耶路撒冷的男女做你們的僕俾。你們豈不也得罪你們的上帝耶和華嗎？你們還是聽我的忠告，釋放你們擄來的同胞，讓他們回去吧！因為耶和華的烈怒已經臨到你們了。」約哈難的兒子亞撒利雅、米實利末的兒子比利迦、沙龍的兒子耶希西迦和哈得萊的兒子亞瑪撒四位以法蓮族長起來阻擋從戰場回來的軍隊，說：「你們不可把這些俘虜帶進來，我們的罪已經夠重了，耶和華的烈怒已經臨到以色列人，不要再得罪耶和華，加重我們的罪惡了。」於是，士兵們便把俘虜和戰利品交給眾首領和民眾。那些以法蓮族長就上前照顧俘虜，從戰利品中拿出衣服和鞋子給那些赤身露體的俘虜穿上，供應他們吃喝，又給他們的傷口抹上油，讓軟弱的騎驢。他們把所有的俘虜送到棕樹城耶利哥他們的親族那裡，隨後返回撒瑪利亞。

如果他們開城投降，城裡所有的人都要做你們的奴隸，為你們服勞役。如果他們不肯投降，要交戰，你們就要圍攻那城。你們的上帝耶和華把城交給你們時，你們要殺光城裡所有的男子，但可以留下城中的婦女、孩童、牲畜及其他一切作戰利品。你們可以享用仇敵的財物，那是你們的上帝耶和華賜給你們的。上述做法只適用於離你們很遙遠的城邑，你們附近各族的城邑除外。你們的上帝耶和華將把你們附近各族的城邑賜給你們，你們要將裡面有氣息的全部消滅。
