H558
Amaziah
H6242
was twenty
H2568
and five
H8141
years
H1121
old
H4427 [H8804]
when he began to reign
H4427 [H8804]
, and he reigned
H6242
twenty
H8672
and nine
H8141
years
H3389
in Jerusalem
H517
. And his mother's
H8034
name
H3086
was Jehoaddan
H3389
of Jerusalem.
2
H6213 [H8799]
And he did
H3477
that which was right
H5869
in the sight
H3068
of the LORD
H8003
, but not with a perfect
H3824
heart.
3
H4467
Now it came to pass, when the kingdom
H2388 [H8804]
was established
H2026 [H8799]
to him, that he slew
H5650
his servants
H5221 [H8688]
that had killed
H4428
the king
H1
his father.
4
H4191 [H8689]
But he slew
H1121
not their children
H3789 [H8803]
, but did as it is written
H8451
in the law
H5612
of the book
H4872
of Moses
H3068
, where the LORD
H6680 [H8765]
commanded
H559 [H8800]
, saying
H1
, The fathers
H4191 [H8799]
shall not die
H1121
for the children
H1121
, neither shall the children
H4191 [H8799]
die
H1
for the fathers
H376
, but every man
H4191 [H8799]
shall die
H2399
for his own sin.
5
H558
Moreover Amaziah
H6908 0
gathered
H3063
Judah
H6908 [H8799]
together
H5975 [H8686]
, and made
H8269
them captains
H505
over thousands
H8269
, and captains
H3967
over hundreds
H1004
, according to the houses
H1
of their fathers
H3063
, throughout all Judah
H1144
and Benjamin
H6485 [H8799]
: and he numbered
H6242
them from twenty
H8141
years
H1121
old
H4605
and above
H4672 [H8799]
, and found
H7969
them three
H3967
hundred
H505
thousand
H977 [H8803]
choice
H3318 [H8802]
men, able to go forth
H6635
to war
H270 [H8802]
, that could handle
H7420
spear
H6793
and shield.
6
H7936 [H8799]
He hired
H3967
also an hundred
H505
thousand
H1368
mighty
H2428
men of valour
H3478
out of Israel
H3967
for an hundred
H3603
talents
H3701
of silver.
7
H935 [H8804]
But there came
H376
a man
H430
of God
H559 [H8800]
to him, saying
H4428
, O king
H6635
, let not the army
H3478
of Israel
H935 [H8799]
go
H3068
with thee; for the LORD
H3478
is not with Israel
H1121
, that is, with all the children
H669
of Ephraim.
8
H935 [H8798]
But if thou wilt go
H6213 [H8798]
, do
H2388 [H8798]
it, be strong
H4421
for the battle
H430
: God
H3782 [H8686]
shall make thee fall
H6440
before
H341 [H8802]
the enemy
H430
: for God
H3426
hath
H3581
power
H5826 [H8800]
to help
H3782 [H8687]
, and to cast down.
9
H558
And Amaziah
H559 [H8799]
said
H376
to the man
H430
of God
H6213 [H8800]
, But what shall we do
H3967
for the hundred
H3603
talents
H5414 [H8804]
which I have given
H1416
to the army
H3478
of Israel
H376
? And the man
H430
of God
H559 [H8799]
answered
H3068
, The LORD
H3426
is
H5414 [H8800]
able to give
H7235 [H8687]
thee much more than this.
10
H558
Then Amaziah
H914 [H8686]
separated
H1416
them, that is, the army
H935 [H8804]
that had come
H669
to him out of Ephraim
H3212 0
, to go
H4725
home
H3212 [H8800]
again
H639
: therefore their anger
H3966
was greatly
H2734 [H8799]
kindled
H3063
against Judah
H7725 [H8799]
, and they returned
H4725
home
H2750
in great
H639
anger.
11
H558
And Amaziah
H2388 [H8694]
strengthened
H5090 [H8799]
himself, and led forth
H5971
his people
H3212 [H8799]
, and went
H1516
to the valley
H4417
of salt
H5221 [H8686]
, and smote
H1121
of the children
H8165
of Seir
H6235
ten
H505
thousand.
12
H6235
And other ten
H505
thousand
H2416
left alive
H1121
the children
H3063
of Judah
H7617 [H8804]
carried away captive
H935 [H8686]
, and brought
H7218
them to the top
H5553
of the rock
H7993 [H8686]
, and cast them down
H7218
from the top
H5553
of the rock
H1234 [H8738]
, that they were all broken in pieces.
13
H1121
But the soldiers
H1416
of the army
H558
whom Amaziah
H7725 [H8689]
sent back
H3212 [H8800]
, that they should not go
H4421
with him to battle
H6584 [H8799]
, fell
H5892
upon the cities
H3063
of Judah
H8111
, from Samaria
H1032
even to Bethhoron
H5221 [H8686]
, and smote
H7969
three
H505
thousand
H962 [H8799]
of them, and took
H7227
much
H961
spoil.
14
H310
Now it came to pass, after
H558
that Amaziah
H935 [H8800]
had come
H5221 [H8687]
from the slaughter
H130
of the Edomites
H935 [H8686]
, that he brought
H430
the gods
H1121
of the children
H8165
of Seir
H5975 [H8686]
, and set them up
H430
to be his gods
H7812 [H8691]
, and bowed
H6440
himself before
H6999 [H8762]
them, and burned incense to them.
15
H639
Therefore the anger
H3068
of the LORD
H2734 [H8799]
was kindled
H558
against Amaziah
H7971 [H8799]
, and he sent
H5030
to him a prophet
H559 [H8799]
, who said
H1875 [H8804]
to him, Why hast thou sought
H430
after the gods
H5971
of the people
H5337 [H8689]
, which could not deliver
H5971
their own people
H3027
out of thy hand?
16
H1696 [H8763]
And it came to pass, as he talked
H559 [H8799]
with him, that the king said
H5414 [H8804]
to him, Art thou made
H4428
of the king's
H3289 [H8802]
council
H2308 [H8798]
? forbear
H5221 [H8686]
; why shouldest thou be smitten
H5030
? Then the prophet
H2308 [H8799]
stopped
H559 [H8799]
, and said
H3045 [H8804]
, I know
H430
that God
H3289 [H8804]
hath determined
H7843 [H8687]
to destroy
H6213 [H8804]
thee, because thou hast done
H8085 [H8804]
this, and hast not hearkened
H6098
to my counsel.
17
H558
Then Amaziah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H3289 [H8735]
took advice
H7971 [H8799]
, and sent
H3101
to Joash
H1121
, the son
H3059
of Jehoahaz
H1121
, the son
H3058
of Jehu
H4428
, king
H3478
of Israel
H559 [H8800]
, saying
H3212 [H8798]
, Come
H7200 [H8691]
, let us look one another
H6440
in the face.
18
H3101
And Joash
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H7971 [H8799]
sent
H558
to Amaziah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H559 [H8800]
, saying
H2336
, The thistle
H3844
that was in Lebanon
H7971 [H8804]
sent
H730
to the cedar
H3844
that was in Lebanon
H559 [H8800]
, saying
H5414 [H8798]
, Give
H1323
thy daughter
H1121
to my son
H802
for a wife
H5674 [H8799]
: and there passed by
H7704
a wild
H2416
beast
H3844
that was in Lebanon
H7429 [H8799]
, and trod down
H2336
the thistle.
19
H559 [H8804]
Thou sayest
H5221 [H8689]
, Lo, thou hast smitten
H123
the Edomites
H3820
; and thy heart
H5375 [H8804]
lifteth thee up
H3513 [H8687]
to boast
H3427 [H8798]
: abide
H1004
now at home
H1624 [H8691]
; why shouldest thou meddle
H7451
to thy harm
H5307 [H8804]
, that thou shouldest fall
H3063
, even thou, and Judah with thee?
20
H558
But Amaziah
H8085 [H8804]
would not hear
H430
; for it came from God
H5414 [H8800]
, that he might deliver
H3027
them into the hand
H1875 [H8804]
of their enemies, because they sought
H430
after the gods
H123
of Edom.
21
H3101
So Joash
H4428
the king
H3478
of Israel
H5927 [H8799]
went up
H7200 [H8691]
; and they looked one another
H6440
in the face
H558
, both he and Amaziah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H1053
, at Bethshemesh
H3063
, which belongeth to Judah.
22
H3063
And Judah
H5062 [H8735]
was smote
H6440
before
H3478
Israel
H5127 [H8799]
, and they fled
H376
every man
H168
to his tent.
23
H3101
And Joash
H4428
the king
H3478
of Israel
H8610 [H8804]
took
H558
Amaziah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H1121
, the son
H3101
of Joash
H1121
, the son
H3059
of Jehoahaz
H1053
, at Bethshemesh
H935 [H8686]
, and brought
H3389
him to Jerusalem
H6555 [H8799]
, and broke down
H2346
the wall
H3389
of Jerusalem
H8179
from the gate
H669
of Ephraim
H6437 [H8802]
to the corner
H8179
gate
H702
, four
H3967
hundred
H520
cubits.
24
H2091
And he took all the gold
H3701
and the silver
H3627
, and all the vessels
H4672 [H8737]
that were found
H1004
in the house
H430
of God
H5654
with Obededom
H214
, and the treasures
H4428
of the king's
H1004
house
H1121 H8594
, the hostages
H7725 [H8799]
also, and returned
H8111
to Samaria.
25
H558
And Amaziah
H1121
the son
H3101
of Joash
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H2421 [H8799]
lived
H310
after
H4194
the death
H3101
of Joash
H1121
son
H3059
of Jehoahaz
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H2568 H6240
fifteen
H8141
years.
26
H3499
Now the rest
H1697
of the acts
H558
of Amaziah
H7223
, first
H314
and last
H3789 [H8803]
, behold, are they not written
H5612
in the book
H4428
of the kings
H3063
of Judah
H3478
and Israel?
27
H6256
Now after the time
H558
that Amaziah
H5493 [H8804]
turned away
H310
from following
H3068
the LORD
H7194 [H8799]
they made
H7195
a conspiracy
H3389
against him in Jerusalem
H5127 [H8799]
; and he fled
H3923
to Lachish
H7971 [H8799]
: but they sent
H3923
to Lachish
H310
after
H4191 [H8686]
him, and slew him there.
