¹ In the seventeenth year of Pekach the son of Remalyahu, became Achaz, the son of Jotham the king of Judah, king. ² Twenty years old was Achaz when he became king, and sixteen years did he reign in Jerusalem; and he did not what is right in the eyes of the Lord his God, like David his father. ³ But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and even his son he caused to pass through the fire, after the abominable acts of the nations whom the Lord had driven out from before the children of Israel. ⁴ And he sacrificed and burnt incense on the high-places, and on the hills, and under every green tree. ⁵ Then came up Rezin the king of Syria and Pekach the son of Remalyahu the king of Israel to Jerusalem to war: and they besieged Achaz, but were not able to make an attack. ⁶ At that time did Rezin the king of Syria bring Elath back to Syria, and drove the Jews from Elath: and the Edomeans came to Elath and dwelt there, even until this day. ⁷ And Achaz then sent messengers to Tiglath-pilesser the king of Assyria, saying, Thy servant and thy son am I: come up, and help me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who rise up against me. ⁸ And Achaz took the silver and the gold that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king’s house, and sent the same to the king of Assyria as a bribe. ⁹ And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him; and the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and captured it, and led the people of it away captive to Kir, and Rezin did he put to death. ¹⁰ And King Achaz went to meet Tiglath-pilesser the king of Assyria to Damascus, and he saw the altar that was at Damascus: and king Achaz then sent to Uriyah the priest the form of the altar, and its pattern, after all its workmanship. ¹¹ And Uriyah the priest built the altar; in accordance with all that king Achaz had sent from Damascus, so did Uriyah the priest make it against the arrival of king Achaz from Damascus. ¹² And when the king came from Damascus, the king saw the altar; and the king approached to the altar and offered thereon. ¹³ And he burnt his burnt-offering and his meat-offering, and poured out his drink-offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings upon the altar. ¹⁴ And as respecteth the copper altar which was before the Lord, he moved it back from the forefront of the house, from between the altar and the house of the Lord, and set it on the side of the altar to the north. ¹⁵ And king Achaz commanded Uriyah the priest, saying, Upon the great altar burn the morning burnt-offering, and the evening meat-offering, and the king’s burnt-offering, and his meat-offering, with the burnt-offering of all the people of the land, and their meat-offering, and their drink-offerings; and all the blood of the burnt-offering, and all the blood of the sacrifices shalt thou sprinkle on it; and the copper altar shall be for me to visit occasionally. ¹⁶ And Uriyah the priest did in accordance with all that king Achaz had commanded. ¹⁷ And king Achaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the lavers from off them; and the sea he took down from off the copper oxen that were under it, and placed it upon a pavement of stones. ¹⁸ And the covered passage for the sabbath that they had built on the house, and the outer king’s entrance, turned he from the house of the Lord, on account of the king of Assyria. ¹⁹ Now the rest of the acts of Achaz which he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah. ²⁰ And Achaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Hezekiah his son became king in his stead.

And the king of Assyria exacted from Hezekiah the king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. ¹⁵ And Hezekiah gave up all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king’s house. ¹⁶ At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the Lord, and from the door-sills which Hezekiah the king of Judah had overlaid, and gave the same to the king of Assyria. ¹⁷ And the king of Assyria sent Tharthan and Rub-sariss and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a strong army against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem; and when they were come up, they came and halted by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is on the highway of the washer’s field. ¹⁸ And they called for the king, when there came out to them Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebnah the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph the recorder. ¹⁹ And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus hath said the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherewith thou hast trusted? ²⁰ Thou saidst, but it was only a word uttered with the lips, I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom didst thou trust, that thou rebelledst against me? ²¹ Now, behold, thou trustedst thee upon yon cracked reed-staff, upon Egypt, which, if a man lean on it, will enter into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh the king of Egypt unto all that trust on him. ²² But if ye should say unto me, In the Lord our God have we trusted: is he not the one whose high-places and whose altars Hezekiah hath removed, when he said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar shall ye prostrate yourselves in Jerusalem? ²³ And now, I pray thee, enter into a contest with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them. ²⁴ How then wilt thou turn back the face of a single chieftain among the least of my master’s servants, while thou hast put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen! ²⁵ Now am I come up without the Lord‘s will against this place to destroy it? The Lord hath said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. ²⁶ Then said Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu, and Shebnah, and Yoach, unto Rabshakeh, Speak, we pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not with us in the Jewish language before the ears of the people that are on the wall. ²⁷ But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master then sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? is it not rather to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own excrement, and drink their own urine with you? ²⁸ Then stood Rabshakeh up and called out with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and spoke, and said, Hear ye the word of the great king, the king of Assyria: ²⁹ Thus hath said the king. Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand; ³⁰ Neither let Hezekiah induce you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city will not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria: ³¹ Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus hath said the king of Assyria, Make a treaty of peace with me, and come out to me, and eat ye every man of his own vine, and every man of his fig-tree, and drink ye every man the waters of his cistern; ³² Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil-olive trees, and of honey, that ye may live, and not die; and hearken not unto Hezekiah; for he will mislead you, saying, The Lord will deliver us. ³³ Have the gods of the nations delivered in anywise each his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? ³⁴ Where are the gods of Chamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvayim, Hena’, and ‘Ivvah? have they then delivered Samaria out of my hand? ³⁵ Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? ³⁶ But the people remained silent, and answered him not a word; for it was the king’s command, saying, Ye shall not answer him. ³⁷ Then came Elyakim the son of Chilkiyah, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebnah the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent; and they told unto him the words of Rabshakeh.

¹ And all the people of Judah took ‘Uzziyahu, who was then sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amazyahu. ² He it was that built Eloth, and brought it back to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers. ³ Sixteen years old was ‘Uzziyahu when he became king, and fifty and two years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Yecholyah of Jerusalem. ⁴ And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that his father Amazyahu had done. ⁵ And he was inclined to seek God in the days of Zecharyahu, who had understanding in the visions of God; and during the time that he sought the Lord, God caused him to prosper. ⁶ And he went forth and made war against the Philistines, and he broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in the country of Ashdod, and among the Philistines. ⁷ And God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gur-ba’al, and the Me’unim. ⁸ And the ‘Ammonites gave presents to ‘Uzziyahu: and his name extended even to the entrance of Egypt; for he became exceedingly strong. ⁹ And ‘Uzziyahu built towers in Jerusalem, above the corner-gate, and above the valley-gate, and at the angle, and made them strong. ¹⁰ He built also towers in the desert, and hewed out many wells; for he had much cattle, both in the lowlands and in the plain; also husbandmen, and vintners in the mountains, and in Carmel; for he loved husbandry. ¹¹ Moreover ‘Uzziyah had an army of fighting men, that went out to the host by bands, according to the number of those mustered of them through the hand of Je’iel the scribe and Ma’asseyahu the overseer, under the supervision of Chananyahu, one of the king’s captains. ¹² The whole number of the chiefs of the family divisions of the mighty men of valor was two thousand and six hundred. ¹³ And under their supervision was an efficient army, of three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy. ¹⁴ And ‘Uzziyahu prepared for them, for all the host, shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, and stones for slinging. ¹⁵ And he made in Jerusalem artificial contrivances, contrived by a skilful man, to be stationed on the towers and upon the ramparts, to shoot off arrows and great stones. And his name extended ever so far abroad; for he was marvelously assisted, till he became strong. ¹⁶ But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction; and he became unfaithful against the Lord his God, and went into the temple of the Lord to burn incense upon the altar of incense. ¹⁷ And there went in after him ‘Azaryahu the priest, and with him were priests of the Lord, valiant men, to the number of eighty; ¹⁸ And they stood forward against king ‘Uzziyahu, and they said unto him, It is not for thee, O ‘Uzziyahu, to burn incense unto the Lord, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; and it will not be for thy honor from the Lord God. ¹⁹ But ‘Uzziyahu became wroth, and in his hand was a censer to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even broke out on his forehead before the priests in the house of the Lord, above the altar of the incense. ²⁰ And when ‘Azaryahu the chief priest, with all the priests, turned about toward him, behold, he was leprous on his forehead, and they hurried him away from there: yea, he also made haste to go out, because the Lord had afflicted him. ²¹ And king ‘Uzziyahu was a leper until the day of his death, and dwelt in the leper-house, as a leper; for he was excluded from the house of the Lord: and Jotham his son was over the king’s house, and judged the people of the land. ²² And the rest of the acts of ‘Uzziyahu, the first and the last, did Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amos write. ²³ And ‘Uzziyahu slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the burial-field which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his stead.
