But Eliseus sat in his house, and the ancients sat with him. So he sent a man before: and before that messenger came, he said to the ancients: Do you know that this son of a murderer hath sent to cut off my head? Look then when the messenger shall come, shut the door, and suffer him not to come in: for behold the sound of his master's feet is behind him.
King James
¿µ¾î¼º°æ
But Elisha sat in his house, and the elders sat with him; and the king sent a man from before him: but ere the messenger came to him, he said to the elders, See ye how this son of a murderer hath sent to take away mine head? look, when the messenger cometh, shut the door, and hold him fast at the door: is not the sound of his master's feet behind him?
Louis Second

Or Élisée était dans sa maison, et les anciens étaient assis auprès de lui. Le roi envoya quelqu'un devant lui. Mais avant que le messager soit arrivé, Élisée dit aux anciens: Voyez-vous que ce fils d'assassin envoie quelqu'un pour m'ôter la tête? Écoutez! quand le messager viendra, fermez la porte, et repoussez-le avec la porte: le bruit des pas de son maître ne se fait-il pas entendre derrière lui
Martin Luther
µ¶¾î¼º°æ
(Elisa aber saß in seinem Hause, und die Ältesten saßen bei ihm.) Und er sandte einen Mann vor ihm her. Aber ehe der Bote zu ihm kam, sprach er zu den Ältesten: Habt ihr gesehen, wie dies Mordkind hat hergesandt, daß er mein Haupt abreiße? Sehet zu, wenn der Bote kommt, daß ihr die Tür zuschließet und stoßet ihn mit der Tür weg; siehe, das Rauschen seines Herrn Füße folget ihm nach.
Vulgate

Heliseus autem sedebat in domo sua et senes sedebant cum eo praemisit itaque virum et antequam veniret nuntius ille dixit ad senes numquid scitis quod miserit filius homicidae hic ut praecidatur caput meum videte ergo cum venerit nuntius cludite ostium et non sinatis eum introire ecce enim sonitus pedum domini eius post eum est
