H558
Amaziah
H6242
was twenty
H2568
and five
H8141
years
H1121
old
H4427
when he began to reign;
H4427
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
And he did
H3477
that which was right
H5869
in the eyes
H3068
of Jehovah,
H8003
but not with a perfect
H3824
heart.
3
H4467
Now it came to pass, when the kingdom
H2388
was established
H2026
unto him, that he slew
H5650
his servants
H5221
that had killed
H4428
the king
H1
his father.
4
H1121
But he put not 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 Jehovah
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
that could handle
H7420
spear
H6793
and shield.
6
H7936
He hired
H3967
also a hundred
H505
thousand
H1368
mighty
H2428
men of valor
H3478
out of Israel
H3967
for a hundred
H3603
talents
H3701
of silver.
7
H935
But there came
H376
a man
H430
of God
H559
to him, saying,
H4428
O king,
H6635
let not the army
H3478
of Israel
H935
go
H3068
with thee; for Jehovah
H3478
is not with Israel,
H1121
to wit, with all the children
H669
of Ephraim.
8
H935
But if thou wilt go,
H6213
do
H2388
valiantly, be strong
H4421
for the battle:
H430
God
H3782
will cast thee down
H6440
before
H341
the enemy;
H430
for God
H3426
hath
H3581
power
H5826
to help,
H3782
and to cast down.
9
H558
And 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
And the man
H430
of God
H559
answered,
H3068
Jehovah
H3426
is
H5414
able to give
H7235
thee much more than this.
10
H558
Then Amaziah
H914
separated
H1416
them, to wit, the army
H935
that was come
H669
to him out of Ephraim,
H3212
to go
H4725
home
H3212
again:
H639
wherefore their anger
H3966
was greatly
H2734
kindled
H3063
against Judah,
H7725
and they returned
H4725
home
H2750
in fierce
H639
anger.
11
H558
And Amaziah
H2388
took courage,
H5090
and led forth
H5971
his people,
H3212
and went
H1516
to the Valley
H4417
of Salt,
H5221
and smote
H1121
of the children
H8165
of Seir
H6235
ten
H505
thousand.
12
H6235
And other ten
H505
thousand
H1121
did the children
H3063
of Judah
H7617
carry
H2416
away alive,
H935
and brought
H7218
them unto the top
H5553
of the rock,
H7993
and cast 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
upon the cities
H3063
of Judah,
H8111
from Samaria
H1032
even unto Beth-horon,
H5221
and smote
H7969
of them three
H505
thousand,
H962
and took
H7227
much
H961
spoil.
14
H310
Now it came to pass, after
H558
that Amaziah
H935
was 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 unto them.
15
H639
Wherefore the anger
H3068
of Jehovah
H2734
was kindled
H558
against Amaziah,
H7971
and he sent
H5030
unto him a prophet,
H559
who said
H1875
unto him, Why hast thou sought
H430
after the gods
H5971
of the people,
H5337
which have not delivered
H5971
their own people
H3027
out of thy hand?
16
H1696
And it came to pass, as he talked
H559
with him, that the king said
H5414
unto him, Have we made
H4428
thee of the king's
H3289
counsel?
H2308
forbear;
H5221
why shouldest thou be smitten?
H5030
Then the prophet
H2308
forbare,
H559
and said,
H3045
I know
H430
that God
H3289
hath determined
H7843
to destroy
H6213
thee, because thou hast done
H8085
this, and hast not hearkened
H6098
unto my counsel.
17
H558
Then Amaziah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H3289
took advice,
H7971
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
And 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
thy daughter
H1121
to my son
H802
to wife:
H5674
and there passed by
H7704
a wild
H2416
beast
H3844
that was in Lebanon,
H7429
and trod down
H2336
the thistle.
19
H559
Thou sayest,
H5221
Lo, thou hast smitten
H123
Edom;
H3820
and thy heart
H5375
lifteth thee up
H3513
to boast:
H3427
abide
H1004
now at home;
H1624
why shouldest thou meddle
H7451
to thy hurt,
H5307
that thou shouldest fall,
H3063
even thou, and Judah with thee?
20
H558
But Amaziah
H8085
would not hear;
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 belongeth to Judah.
22
H3063
And Judah
H5062
was put to the worse
H6440
before
H3478
Israel;
H5127
and they fled
H376
every man
H168
to his tent.
23
H3101
And 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 brake down
H2346
the wall
H3389
of Jerusalem
H8179
from the gate
H669
of Ephraim
H6437
unto the corner
H8179
gate,
H702
four
H3967
hundred
H520
cubits.
24
H2091
And 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
And 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, are they not written
H5612
in the book
H4428
of the kings
H3063
of Judah
H3478
and Israel?
