7 Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah the king’s son, Azrikam the officer over the house, and Elkanah who was second to the king.

8 And the children of Israel carried away captive of their ^abrethren two hundred thousand women, sons, and daughters; and they also took away much¹ spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.

Israel Returns the Captives

9 But a ^aprophet of the Lord was there, whose name was Oded; and he went out before the army that came to Samaria, and said to them: “Look, ^bbecause the Lord God of your fathers was angry with Judah, He has delivered them into your hand; but you have killed them in a rage that ^creaches up to heaven.

10 And now you propose to force the children of Judah and Jerusalem to be your ^amale and female slaves; but are you not also guilty before the Lord your God?

11 Now hear me, therefore, and return the captives, whom you have taken captive from your brethren, ^afor the fierce wrath of the Lord is upon you.”
