H558
Amaziah
H6242
was twenty -
H2568
five
H8141
years
H1121
old
H4427
when he began to reign;
H4427
and he reigned
H6242
twenty -
H8672
nine
H8141
years
H3389
in Jerusalem:
H517
and his mother's
H8034
name
H3086
was Jehoaddan,
H3389
of Jerusalem.
2
H6213
He did
H3477
that which was right
H5869
in the eyes
H3068
of Yahweh,
H8003
but not with a perfect
H3824
heart.
3
H4467
Now it happened, when the kingdom
H2388
was established
H2026
to him, that he killed
H5650
his servants
H2026
who had killed
H4428
the king
H1
his father.
4
H1121
But he didn't put their children
H4191
to death,
H3789
but did according to that which is written
H8451
in the law
H5612
in the book
H4872
of Moses,
H3068
as Yahweh
H6680
commanded,
H559
saying,
H1
"The fathers
H4191
shall not die
H1121
for the children,
H1121
neither shall the children
H4191
die
H1
for the fathers;
H376
but every man
H4191
shall die
H2399
for his own sin."
5
H558
Moreover Amaziah
H6908
gathered
H3063
Judah
H6908
together,
H5975
and ordered
H1
them according to their fathers'
H1004
houses,
H8269
under captains
H505
of thousands
H8269
and captains
H3967
of hundreds,
H3063
even all Judah
H1144
and Benjamin:
H6485
and he numbered
H6242
them from twenty
H8141
years
H1121
old
H4605
and upward,
H4672
and found
H7969
them three
H3967
hundred
H505
thousand
H977
chosen
H3318
men, able to go forth
H6635
to war,
H270
who could handle
H7420
spear
H6793
and shield.
6
H7936
He hired
H3967
also one hundred
H505
thousand
H1368
mighty
H2428
men of valor
H3478
out of Israel
H3967
for one hundred
H3603
talents
H3701
of silver.
7
H376
A man
H430
of God
H935
came
H559
to him, saying,
H4428
"O king,
H6635
don't let the army
H3478
of Israel
H935
go
H3068
with you; for Yahweh
H3478
is not with Israel,
H1121
with all the children
H669
of Ephraim.
8
H935
But if you will go,
H6213
take
H2388
action, be strong
H4421
for the battle.
H430
God
H3782
will overthrow
H6440
you before
H341
the enemy;
H430
for God
H3426
has
H3581
power
H5826
to help,
H3782
and to overthrow."
9
H558
Amaziah
H559
said
H376
to the man
H430
of God,
H6213
"But what shall we do
H3967
for the hundred
H3603
talents
H5414
which I have given
H1416
to the army
H3478
of Israel?"
H376
The man
H430
of God
H559
answered,
H3068
"Yahweh
H3426
is
H5414
able to give
H7235
you much more than this."
10
H558
Then Amaziah
H914
separated
H1416
them, the army
H935
that had come
H669
to him out of Ephraim,
H935
to go
H4725
home
H3212
again:
H639
therefore their anger
H3966
was greatly
H2734
kindled
H3063
against Judah,
H7725
and they returned
H4725
home
H2750
in fierce
H639
anger.
11
H558
Amaziah
H2388
took courage,
H5090
and led forth
H5971
his people,
H3212
and went
H1516
to the Valley
H4417
of Salt,
H5221
and struck
H6235
ten
H505
thousand
H1121
of the children
H8165
of Seir.
12
H1121
The children
H3063
of Judah
H7617
carry
H6235
away ten
H505
thousand
H2416
alive,
H935
and brought
H7218
them to the top
H5553
of the rock,
H7993
and threw them down
H7218
from the top
H5553
of the rock,
H1234
so that they all were broken in pieces.
13
H1121
But the men
H1416
of the army
H558
whom Amaziah
H7725
sent back,
H3212
that they should not go
H4421
with him to battle,
H6584
fell
H5892
on the cities
H3063
of Judah,
H8111
from Samaria
H1032
even to Beth Horon,
H5221
and struck
H7969
of them three
H505
thousand,
H962
and took
H7227
much
H961
spoil.
14
H310
Now it happened, after
H558
that Amaziah
H935
had come
H5221
from the slaughter
H130
of the Edomites,
H935
that he brought
H430
the gods
H1121
of the children
H8165
of Seir,
H5975
and set them up
H430
to be his gods,
H7812
and bowed down
H6440
himself before
H6999
them, and burned incense to them.
15
H639
Therefore the anger
H3068
of Yahweh
H2734
was kindled
H558
against Amaziah,
H7971
and he sent
H5030
to him a prophet,
H559
who said
H1875
to him, "Why have you sought
H430
after the gods
H5971
of the people,
H5337
which have not delivered
H5971
their own people
H3027
out of your hand?"
16
H1696
It happened, as he talked
H559
with him, that the king said
H5414
to him, "Have we made
H4428
you one of the king's
H3289
counselors?
H2308
Stop!
H5221
Why should you be struck
H5030
down?" Then the prophet
H2308
stopped,
H559
and said,
H3045
"I know
H430
that God
H3289
has determined
H7843
to destroy
H6213
you, because you have done
H8085
this, and have not listened
H6098
to my counsel."
17
H558
Then Amaziah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H3289
consulted
H7971
his advisers, and sent
H3101
to Joash,
H1121
the son
H3059
of Jehoahaz
H1121
the son
H3058
of Jehu,
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel,
H559
saying,
H3212
"Come,
H7200
let us look one another
H6440
in the face."
18
H3101
Joash
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H7971
sent
H558
to Amaziah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah,
H559
saying,
H2336
"The thistle
H3844
that was in Lebanon
H7971
sent
H730
to the cedar
H3844
that was in Lebanon,
H559
saying,
H5414
‘Give
H1323
your daughter
H1121
to my son
H802
as his wife;
H7704
then a wild
H2416
animal
H3844
that was in Lebanon
H5674
passed by,
H7429
and trampled down
H2336
the thistle.
19
H559
You say
H5221
to yourself that you have struck
H123
Edom;
H3820
and your heart
H5375
lifts you up
H3513
to boast.
H3427
Now stay
H1004
at home.
H1624
Why should you meddle
H7451
with trouble,
H5307
that you should fall,
H3063
even you, and Judah with you?'"
20
H558
But Amaziah
H8085
would not listen;
H430
for it was of God,
H5414
that he might deliver
H3027
them into the hand
H1875
of their enemies, because they had sought
H430
after the gods
H123
of Edom.
21
H3101
So Joash
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H5927
went up;
H558
and he and Amaziah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H7200
looked one another
H6440
in the face
H1053
at Beth Shemesh,
H3063
which belongs to Judah.
22
H3063
Judah
H5062
was defeated
H6440
by
H3478
Israel;
H5127
and they fled
H376
every man
H168
to his tent.
23
H3101
Joash
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H8610
took
H558
Amaziah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah,
H1121
the son
H3101
of Joash
H1121
the son
H3059
of Jehoahaz,
H1053
at Beth Shemesh,
H935
and brought
H3389
him to Jerusalem,
H6555
and broke down
H2346
the wall
H3389
of Jerusalem
H8179
from the gate
H669
of Ephraim
H6437
to the corner
H8179
gate,
H702
four
H3967
hundred
H520
cubits.
24
H2091
He took all the gold
H3701
and silver,
H3627
and all the vessels
H4672
that were found
H1004
in the house
H430
of God
H5654
with Obed-Edom,
H214
and the treasures
H4428
of the king's
H1004
house,
H1121
the hostages
H7725
also, and returned
H8111
to Samaria.
25
H558
Amaziah
H1121
the son
H3101
of Joash
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H2421
lived
H310
after
H4194
the death
H3101
of Joash
H1121
son
H3059
of Jehoahaz
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H2568
fifteen
H8141
years.
26
H3499
Now the rest
H1697
of the acts
H558
of Amaziah,
H7223
first
H314
and last,
H3789
behold, aren't they written
H5612
in the book
H4428
of the kings
H3063
of Judah
H3478
and Israel?
