וְאָסָא הַמֶּלֶךְ לָקַח אֶת-כָּל-יְהוּדָה וַיִּשְׂאוּ אֶת-אַבְנֵי הָֽרָמָה וְאֶת-עֵצֶיהָ אֲשֶׁר בָּנָה בַּעְשָׁא וַיִּבֶן בָּהֶם אֶת-גֶּבַע וְאֶת-הַמִּצְפָּֽה׃
Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha was building; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah.
וּבָעֵת הַהִיא בָּא חֲנָנִי הָֽרֹאֶה אֶל-אָסָא מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו בְּהִשָּׁעֶנְךָ עַל-מֶלֶךְ אֲרָם וְלֹא נִשְׁעַנְתָּ עַל-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ עַל-כֵּן נִמְלַט חֵיל מֶֽלֶךְ-אֲרָם מִיָּדֶֽךָ׃
And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said unto him, Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria, and not relied on the LORD thy God, therefore is the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thine hand.
וְהִנֵּה דִּבְרֵי אָסָא הָרִֽאשׁוֹנִים וְהָאַֽחֲרוֹנִים הִנָּם כְּתוּבִים עַל-סֵפֶר הַמְּלָכִים לִֽיהוּדָה וְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And, behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
אֵלֶּה הַמְשָֽׁרְתִים אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ מִלְּבַד אֲשֶׁר-נָתַן הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּעָרֵי הַמִּבְצָר בְּכָל-יְהוּדָֽה׃
These waited on the king, beside those whom the king put in the fenced cities throughout all Judah.
וַיֹּאמֶר אַחְאָב מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל-יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה הֲתֵלֵךְ עִמִּי רָמֹת גִּלְעָד וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ כָּמוֹנִי כָמוֹךָ וּכְעַמְּךָ עַמִּי וְעִמְּךָ בַּמִּלְחָמָֽה׃
And Ahab king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Wilt thou go with me to Ramoth-gilead? And he answered him, I am as thou art, and my people as thy people; and we will be with thee in the war.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט אֶל-מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל דְּרָשׁ-נָא כַיּוֹם אֶת-דְּבַר יְהוָֽה׃
And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD to day.
וַיִּקְבֹּץ מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶֽת-הַנְּבִאִים אַרְבַּע מֵאוֹת אִישׁ וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵהֶם הֲנֵלֵךְ אֶל-רָמֹת גִּלְעָד לַמִּלְחָמָה אִם-אֶחְדָּל וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ עֲלֵה וְיִתֵּן הָֽאֱלֹהִים בְּיַד הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
Therefore the king of Israel gathered together of prophets four hundred men, and said unto them, Shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up; for God will deliver it into the king's hand.
וַיֹּאמֶר מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל׀ אֶֽל-יְהוֹשָׁפָט עוֹד אִישׁ-אֶחָד לִדְרוֹשׁ אֶת-יְהוָה מֵֽאֹתוֹ וַֽאֲנִי שְׂנֵאתִיהוּ כִּֽי-אֵינֶנּוּ מִתְנַבֵּא עָלַי לְטוֹבָה כִּי כָל-יָמָיו לְרָעָה הוּא מִיכָיְהוּ בֶן-יִמְלָא וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוֹשָׁפָט אַל-יֹאמַר הַמֶּלֶךְ כֵּֽן׃
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, by whom we may inquire of the LORD: but I hate him; for he never prophesied good unto me, but always evil: the same is Micaiah the son of Imla. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
וַיִּקְרָא מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל-סָרִיס אֶחָד וַיֹּאמֶר מַהֵר (מיכהו) מִיכָיְהוּ בֶן-יִמְלָֽא׃
And the king of Israel called for one of his officers, and said, Fetch quickly Micaiah the son of Imla.
וּמֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל וִיהֽוֹשָׁפָט מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה יֽוֹשְׁבִים אִישׁ עַל-כִּסְאוֹ מְלֻבָּשִׁים בְּגָדִים וְיֹֽשְׁבִים בְּגֹרֶן פֶּתַח שַׁעַר שֹֽׁמְרוֹן וְכָל-הַנְּבִיאִים מִֽתְנַבְּאִים לִפְנֵיהֶֽם׃
And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah sat either of them on his throne, clothed in their robes, and they sat in a void place at the entering in of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.
וְכָל-הַנְּבִאִים נִבְּאִים כֵּן לֵאמֹר עֲלֵה רָמֹת גִּלְעָד וְהַצְלַח וְנָתַן יְהוָה בְּיַד הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper: for the LORD shall deliver it into the hand of the king.
וְהַמַּלְאָךְ אֲשֶׁר-הָלַךְ׀ לִקְרֹא לְמִיכָיְהוּ דִּבֶּר אֵלָיו לֵאמֹר הִנֵּה דִּבְרֵי הַנְּבִאִים פֶּֽה-אֶחָד טוֹב אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ וִֽיהִי-נָא דְבָֽרְךָ כְּאַחַד מֵהֶם וְדִבַּרְתָּ טּֽוֹב׃
And the messenger that went to call Micaiah spake to him, saying, Behold, the words of the prophets declare good to the king with one assent; let thy word therefore, I pray thee, be like one of theirs, and speak thou good.
וַיָּבֹא אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ אֵלָיו מִיכָה הֲנֵלֵךְ אֶל-רָמֹת גִּלְעָד לַמִּלְחָמָה אִם-אֶחְדָּל וַיֹּאמֶר עֲלוּ וְהַצְלִיחוּ וְיִנָּֽתְנוּ בְּיֶדְכֶֽם׃
And when he was come to the king, the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go ye up, and prosper, and they shall be delivered into your hand.
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו הַמֶּלֶךְ עַד-כַּמֶּה פְעָמִים אֲנִי מַשְׁבִּיעֶךָ אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-תְדַבֵּר אֵלַי רַק-אֱמֶת בְּשֵׁם יְהוָֽה׃
And the king said to him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou say nothing but the truth to me in the name of the LORD?
וַיֹּאמֶר מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל-יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט הֲלֹא אָמַרְתִּי אֵלֶיךָ לֹֽא-יִתְנַבֵּא עָלַי טוֹב כִּי אִם-לְרָֽע׃
And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee that he would not prophesy good unto me, but evil?
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה מִי יְפַתֶּה אֶת-אַחְאָב מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל וְיַעַל וְיִפֹּל בְּרָמוֹת גִּלְעָד וַיֹּאמֶר זֶה אֹמֵר כָּכָה וְזֶה אֹמֵר כָּֽכָה׃
And the LORD said, Who shall entice Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead? And one spake saying after this manner, and another saying after that manner.
וַיֹּאמֶר מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל קְחוּ אֶת-מִיכָיְהוּ וַֽהֲשִׁיבֻהוּ אֶל-אָמוֹן שַׂר-הָעִיר וְאֶל-יוֹאָשׁ בֶּן-הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
Then the king of Israel said, Take ye Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son;
וַֽאֲמַרְתֶּם כֹּה אָמַר הַמֶּלֶךְ שִׂימוּ זֶה בֵּית הַכֶּלֶא וְהַֽאֲכִלֻהוּ לֶחֶם לַחַץ וּמַיִם לַחַץ עַד שׁוּבִי בְשָׁלֽוֹם׃
And say, Thus saith the king, Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I return in peace.
וַיַּעַל מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל וִיהֽוֹשָׁפָט מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה אֶל-רָמֹת גִּלְעָֽד׃
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
וַיֹּאמֶר מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל-יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט הִתְחַפֵּשׂ וָבוֹא בַמִּלְחָמָה וְאַתָּה לְבַשׁ בְּגָדֶיךָ וַיִּתְחַפֵּשׂ מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיָּבֹאוּ בַּמִּלְחָמָֽה׃
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and will go to the battle; but put thou on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went to the battle.
וּמֶלֶךְ אֲרָם צִוָּה אֶת-שָׂרֵי הָרֶכֶב אֲשֶׁר-לוֹ לֵאמֹר לֹא תִּלָּחֲמוּ אֶת-הַקָּטֹן אֶת-הַגָּדוֹל כִּי אִֽם-אֶת-מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל לְבַדּֽוֹ׃
Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of the chariots that were with him, saying, Fight ye not with small or great, save only with the king of Israel.
וַיְהִי כִּרְאוֹת שָׂרֵי הָרֶכֶב אֶת-יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט וְהֵמָּה אָֽמְרוּ מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל הוּא וַיָּסֹבּוּ עָלָיו לְהִלָּחֵם וַיִּזְעַק יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט וַֽיהוָה עֲזָרוֹ וַיְסִיתֵם אֱלֹהִים מִמֶּֽנּוּ׃
And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.
וַיְהִי כִּרְאוֹת שָׂרֵי הָרֶכֶב כִּי לֹֽא-הָיָה מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיָּשׁוּבוּ מֵאַֽחֲרָֽיו׃
For it came to pass, that, when the captains of the chariots perceived that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back again from pursuing him.
וְאִישׁ מָשַׁךְ בַּקֶּשֶׁת לְתֻמּוֹ וַיַּךְ אֶת-מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל בֵּין הַדְּבָקִים וּבֵין הַשִּׁרְיָן וַיֹּאמֶר לָֽרַכָּב הֲפֹךְ (ידיך) יָדְךָ וְהֽוֹצֵאתַנִי מִן-הַֽמַּחֲנֶה כִּי הָֽחֳלֵֽיתִי׃
And a certain man drew a bow at a venture, and smote the king of Israel between the joints of the harness: therefore he said to his chariot man, Turn thine hand, that thou mayest carry me out of the host; for I am wounded.
וַתַּעַל הַמִּלְחָמָה בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא וּמֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל הָיָה מַֽעֲמִיד בַּמֶּרְכָּבָה נֹכַח אֲרָם עַד-הָעָרֶב וַיָּמָת לְעֵת בּוֹא הַשָּֽׁמֶשׁ׃
And the battle increased that day: howbeit the king of Israel stayed himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the even: and about the time of the sun going down he died.
וַיָּשָׁב יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה אֶל-בֵּיתוֹ בְּשָׁלוֹם לִירֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.
וַיֵּצֵא אֶל-פָּנָיו יֵהוּא בֶן-חֲנָנִי הַֽחֹזֶה וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט הֲלָֽרָשָׁע לַעְזֹר וּלְשֹֽׂנְאֵי יְהוָה תֶּֽאֱהָב וּבָזֹאת עָלֶיךָ קֶּצֶף מִלִּפְנֵי יְהוָֽה׃
And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD? therefore is wrath upon thee from before the LORD.
וְהִנֵּה אֲמַרְיָהוּ כֹהֵן הָרֹאשׁ עֲלֵיכֶם לְכֹל דְּבַר-יְהוָה וּזְבַדְיָהוּ בֶן-יִשְׁמָעֵאל הַנָּגִיד לְבֵית-יְהוּדָה לְכֹל דְּבַר-הַמֶּלֶךְ וְשֹֽׁטְרִים הַלְוִיִּם לִפְנֵיכֶם חִזְקוּ וַֽעֲשׂוּ וִיהִי יְהוָה עִם-הַטּֽוֹב׃
And, behold, Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of the LORD; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the ruler of the house of Judah, for all the king's matters: also the Levites shall be officers before you. Deal courageously, and the LORD shall be with the good.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַקְשִׁיבוּ כָל-יְהוּדָה וְיֹֽשְׁבֵי יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם וְהַמֶּלֶךְ יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה לָכֶם אַתֶּם אַל-תִּֽירְאוּ וְאַל-תֵּחַתּוּ מִפְּנֵי הֶֽהָמוֹן הָרָב הַזֶּה כִּי לֹא לָכֶם הַמִּלְחָמָה כִּי לֵֽאלֹהִֽים׃
And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus saith the LORD unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.
וּבַיּוֹם הָֽרְבִעִי נִקְהֲלוּ לְעֵמֶק בְּרָכָה כִּי-שָׁם בֵּרֲכוּ אֶת-יְהוָה עַל-כֵּן קָֽרְאוּ אֶת-שֵׁם הַמָּקוֹם הַהוּא עֵמֶק בְּרָכָה עַד-הַיּֽוֹם׃
And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the valley of Berachah; for there they blessed the LORD: therefore the name of the same place was called, The valley of Berachah, unto this day.
וְיֶתֶר דִּבְרֵי יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט הָרִֽאשֹׁנִים וְהָאַֽחֲרֹנִים הִנָּם כְּתוּבִים בְּדִבְרֵי יֵהוּא בֶן-חֲנָנִי אֲשֶׁר הֹֽעֲלָה עַל-סֵפֶר מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of Jehu the son of Hanani, who is mentioned in the book of the kings of Israel.
וְאַחֲרֵי-כֵן אֶתְחַבַּר יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה עִם אֲחַזְיָה מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל הוּא הִרְשִׁיעַ לַֽעֲשֽׂוֹת׃
And after this did Jehoshaphat king of Judah join himself with Ahaziah king of Israel, who did very wickedly:
וְלֽוֹ-אַחִים בְּנֵי יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט עֲזַרְיָה וִֽיחִיאֵל וּזְכַרְיָהוּ וַֽעֲזַרְיָהוּ וּמִֽיכָאֵל וּשְׁפַטְיָהוּ כָּל-אֵלֶּה בְּנֵי יְהוֹשָׁפָט מֶלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And he had brethren the sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah: all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
וַיֵּלֶךְ בְּדֶרֶךְ׀ מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל כַּֽאֲשֶׁר עָשׂוּ בֵּית אַחְאָב כִּי בַּת-אַחְאָב הָיְתָה לּוֹ אִשָּׁה וַיַּעַשׂ הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָֽה׃
And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, like as did the house of Ahab: for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife: and he wrought that which was evil in the eyes of the LORD.
בְּיָמָיו פָּשַׁע אֱדוֹם מִתַּחַת יַד-יְהוּדָה וַיַּמְלִיכוּ עֲלֵיהֶם מֶֽלֶךְ׃
In his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of Judah, and made themselves a king.
וַיָּבֹא אֵלָיו מִכְתָּב מֵאֵֽלִיָּהוּ הַנָּבִיא לֵאמֹר כֹּה׀ אָמַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי דָּוִיד אָבִיךָ תַּחַת אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-הָלַכְתָּ בְּדַרְכֵי יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט אָבִיךָ וּבְדַרְכֵי אָסָא מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָֽה׃
And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
וַתֵּלֶךְ בְּדֶרֶךְ מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַתַּזְנֶה אֶת-יְהוּדָה וְאֶת-יֹֽשְׁבֵי יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם כְּהַזְנוֹת בֵּית אַחְאָב וְגַם אֶת-אַחֶיךָ בֵית-אָבִיךָ הַטּוֹבִים מִמְּךָ הָרָֽגְתָּ׃
But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring, like to the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father's house, which were better than thyself:
וַיַּֽעֲלוּ בִֽיהוּדָה וַיִּבְקָעוּהָ וַיִּשְׁבּוּ אֵת כָּל-הָֽרְכוּשׁ הַנִּמְצָא לְבֵית-הַמֶּלֶךְ וְגַם-בָּנָיו וְנָשָׁיו וְלֹא נִשְׁאַר-לוֹ בֵּן כִּי אִם-יְהֽוֹאָחָז קְטֹן בָּנָֽיו׃
And they came up into Judah, and brake into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king's house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was never a son left him, save Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
בֶּן-שְׁלֹשִׁים וּשְׁתַּיִם הָיָה בְמָלְכוֹ וּשְׁמוֹנֶה שָׁנִים מָלַךְ בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם וַיֵּלֶךְ בְּלֹא חֶמְדָּה וַֽיִּקְבְּרֻהוּ בְּעִיר דָּוִיד וְלֹא בְּקִבְרוֹת הַמְּלָכִֽים׃
Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years, and departed without being desired. Howbeit they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
וַיַּמְלִיכוּ יֽוֹשְׁבֵי יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם אֶת-אֲחַזְיָהוּ בְנוֹ הַקָּטֹן תַּחְתָּיו כִּי כָל-הָרִֽאשֹׁנִים הָרַג הַגְּדוּד הַבָּא בָֽעַרְבִים לַֽמַּחֲנֶה וַיִּמְלֹךְ אֲחַזְיָהוּ בֶן-יְהוֹרָם מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָֽה׃
And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.
גַּם בַּֽעֲצָתָם הָלַךְ וַיֵּלֶךְ אֶת-יְהוֹרָם בֶּן-אַחְאָב מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל לַמִּלְחָמָה עַל-חֲזָאֵל מֶֽלֶךְ-אֲרָם בְּרָמוֹת גִּלְעָד וַיַּכּוּ הָֽרַמִּים אֶת-יוֹרָֽם׃
He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramoth-gilead: and the Syrians smote Joram.
וַיָּשָׁב לְהִתְרַפֵּא בְיִזְרְעֶאל כִּי הַמַּכִּים אֲשֶׁר הִכֻּהוּ בָֽרָמָה בְּהִלָּחֲמוֹ אֶת-חֲזָהאֵל מֶלֶךְ אֲרָם וַֽעֲזַרְיָהוּ בֶן-יְהוֹרָם מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה יָרַד לִרְאוֹת אֶת-יְהוֹרָם בֶּן-אַחְאָב בְּיִזְרְעֶאל כִּֽי-חֹלֶה הֽוּא׃
And he returned to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds which were given him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jezreel, because he was sick.
וַתִּקַּח יְהֽוֹשַׁבְעַת בַּת-הַמֶּלֶךְ אֶת-יוֹאָשׁ בֶּן-אֲחַזְיָהוּ וַתִּגְנֹב אֹתוֹ מִתּוֹךְ בְּנֵֽי-הַמֶּלֶךְ הַמּוּמָתִים וַתִּתֵּן אֹתוֹ וְאֶת-מֵֽינִקְתּוֹ בַּֽחֲדַר הַמִּטּוֹת וַתַּסְתִּירֵהוּ יְהֽוֹשַׁבְעַת בַּת-הַמֶּלֶךְ יְהוֹרָם אֵשֶׁת יְהֽוֹיָדָע הַכֹּהֵן כִּי הִיא הָֽיְתָה אֲחוֹת אֲחַזְיָהוּ מִפְּנֵי עֲתַלְיָהוּ וְלֹא הֱמִיתָֽתְהוּ׃
But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah,) hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not.
וַיִּכְרֹת כָּל-הַקָּהָל בְּרִית בְּבֵית הָֽאֱלֹהִים עִם-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם הִנֵּה בֶן-הַמֶּלֶךְ יִמְלֹךְ כַּֽאֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר יְהוָה עַל-בְּנֵי דָוִֽיד׃
And all the congregation made a covenant with the king in the house of God. And he said unto them, Behold, the king's son shall reign, as the LORD hath said of the sons of David.
וְהַשְּׁלִשִׁית בְּבֵית הַמֶּלֶךְ וְהַשְּׁלִשִׁית בְּשַׁעַר הַיְסוֹד וְכָל-הָעָם בְּחַצְרוֹת בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And a third part shall be at the king's house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation: and all the people shall be in the courts of the house of the LORD.
וְהִקִּיפוּ הַלְוִיִּם אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ סָבִיב אִישׁ וְכֵלָיו בְּיָדוֹ וְהַבָּא אֶל-הַבַּיִת יוּמָת וִֽהְיוּ אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּבֹאוֹ וּבְצֵאתֽוֹ׃
And the Levites shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and whosoever else cometh into the house, he shall be put to death: but be ye with the king when he cometh in, and when he goeth out.
וַיִּתֵּן יְהֽוֹיָדָע הַכֹּהֵן לְשָׂרֵי הַמֵּאוֹת אֶת-הַֽחֲנִיתִים וְאֶת-הַמָּֽגִנּוֹת וְאֶת-הַשְּׁלָטִים אֲשֶׁר לַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִיד אֲשֶׁר בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
Moreover Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David's, which were in the house of God.
וַיַּֽעֲמֵד אֶת-כָּל-הָעָם וְאִישׁ׀ שִׁלְחוֹ בְיָדוֹ מִכֶּתֶף הַבַּיִת הַיְמָנִית עַד-כֶּתֶף הַבַּיִת הַשְּׂמָאלִית לַמִּזְבֵּחַ וְלַבָּיִת עַל-הַמֶּלֶךְ סָבִֽיב׃
And he set all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side of the temple, along by the altar and the temple, by the king round about.
וַיּוֹצִיאוּ אֶת-בֶּן-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיִּתְּנוּ עָלָיו אֶת-הַנֵּזֶר וְאֶת-הָעֵדוּת וַיַּמְלִיכוּ אֹתוֹ וַיִּמְשָׁחֻהוּ יְהֽוֹיָדָע וּבָנָיו וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ יְחִי הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
Then they brought out the king's son, and put upon him the crown, and gave him the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, God save the king.
וַתִּשְׁמַע עֲתַלְיָהוּ אֶת-קוֹל הָעָם הָֽרָצִים וְהַֽמְהַלְלִים אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַתָּבוֹא אֶל-הָעָם בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
Now when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people into the house of the LORD:
וַתֵּרֶא וְהִנֵּה הַמֶּלֶךְ עוֹמֵד עַֽל-עַמּוּדוֹ בַּמָּבוֹא וְהַשָּׂרִים וְהַחֲצֹֽצְרוֹת עַל-הַמֶּלֶךְ וְכָל-עַם הָאָרֶץ שָׂמֵחַ וְתוֹקֵעַ בַּחֲצֹצְרוֹת וְהַמְשֽׁוֹרֲרִים בִּכְלֵי הַשִּׁיר וּמֽוֹדִיעִים לְהַלֵּל וַתִּקְרַע עֲתַלְיָהוּ אֶת-בְּגָדֶיהָ וַתֹּאמֶר קֶשֶׁר קָֽשֶׁר׃
And she looked, and, behold, the king stood at his pillar at the entering in, and the princes and the trumpets by the king: and all the people of the land rejoiced, and sounded with trumpets, also the singers with instruments of musick, and such as taught to sing praise. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and said, Treason, Treason.
וַיָּשִׂימוּ לָהּ יָדַיִם וַתָּבוֹא אֶל-מְבוֹא שַֽׁעַר-הַסּוּסִים בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיְמִיתוּהָ שָֽׁם׃
So they laid hands on her; and when she was come to the entering of the horse gate by the king's house, they slew her there.
וַיִּכְרֹת יְהֽוֹיָדָע בְּרִית בֵּינוֹ וּבֵין כָּל-הָעָם וּבֵין הַמֶּלֶךְ לִֽהְיוֹת לְעָם לַֽיהוָֽה׃
And Jehoiada made a covenant between him, and between all the people, and between the king, that they should be the LORD's people.
וַיִּקַּח אֶת-שָׂרֵי הַמֵּאוֹת וְאֶת-הָֽאַדִּירִים וְאֶת-הַמּֽוֹשְׁלִים בָּעָם וְאֵת׀ כָּל-עַם הָאָרֶץ וַיּוֹרֶד אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ מִבֵּית יְהוָה וַיָּבֹאוּ בְּתֽוֹךְ-שַׁעַר הָֽעֶלְיוֹן בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיּוֹשִׁיבוּ אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ עַל כִּסֵּא הַמַּמְלָכָֽה׃
And he took the captains of hundreds, and the nobles, and the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king from the house of the LORD: and they came through the high gate into the king's house, and set the king upon the throne of the kingdom.
וַיִּקְרָא הַמֶּלֶךְ לִיהֽוֹיָדָע הָרֹאשׁ וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ מַדּוּעַ לֹֽא-דָרַשְׁתָּ עַל-הַלְוִיִּם לְהָבִיא מִֽיהוּדָה וּמִירֽוּשָׁלִַם אֶת-מַשְׂאַת מֹשֶׁה עֶֽבֶד-יְהוָה וְהַקָּהָל לְיִשְׂרָאֵל לְאֹהֶל הָֽעֵדֽוּת׃
And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection, according to the commandment of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness?
וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ אֲרוֹן אֶחָד וַֽיִּתְּנֻהוּ בְּשַׁעַר בֵּית-יְהוָה חֽוּצָה׃
And at the king's commandment they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the LORD.
וַיְהִי בְּעֵת יָבִיא אֶת-הָֽאָרוֹן אֶל-פְּקֻדַּת הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּיַד הַלְוִיִּם וְכִרְאוֹתָם כִּי-רַב הַכֶּסֶף וּבָא סוֹפֵר הַמֶּלֶךְ וּפְקִיד כֹּהֵן הָרֹאשׁ וִיעָרוּ אֶת-הָאָרוֹן וְיִשָּׂאֻהוּ וִֽישִׁיבֻהוּ אֶל-מְקֹמוֹ כֹּה עָשׂוּ לְיוֹם׀ בְּיוֹם וַיַּֽאַסְפוּ-כֶסֶף לָרֹֽב׃
Now it came to pass, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king's office by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king's scribe and the high priest's officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to his place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
וַיִּתְּנֵהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וִיהֽוֹיָדָע אֶל-עוֹשֵׂה מְלֶאכֶת עֲבוֹדַת בֵּית-יְהוָה וַיִּֽהְיוּ שֹֽׂכְרִים חֹֽצְבִים וְחָֽרָשִׁים לְחַדֵּשׁ בֵּית יְהוָה וְגַם לְחָֽרָשֵׁי בַרְזֶל וּנְחֹשֶׁת לְחַזֵּק אֶת-בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the LORD, and also such as wrought iron and brass to mend the house of the LORD.
וּֽכְכַלּוֹתָם הֵבִיאוּ לִפְנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וִיהֽוֹיָדָע אֶת-שְׁאָר הַכֶּסֶף וַיַּֽעֲשֵׂהוּ כֵלִים לְבֵית-יְהוָה כְּלֵי שָׁרֵת וְהַֽעֲלוֹת וְכַפּוֹת וּכְלֵי זָהָב וָכָסֶף וַיִּֽהְיוּ מַֽעֲלִים עֹלוֹת בְּבֵית-יְהוָה תָּמִיד כֹּל יְמֵי יְהֽוֹיָדָֽע׃
And when they had finished it, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, whereof were made vessels for the house of the LORD, even vessels to minister, and to offer withal, and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada.
וַיִּקְבְּרֻהוּ בְעִיר-דָּוִיד עִם-הַמְּלָכִים כִּֽי-עָשָׂה טוֹבָה בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל וְעִם הָֽאֱלֹהִים וּבֵיתֽוֹ׃
And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward God, and toward his house.
וְאַֽחֲרֵי מוֹת יְהוֹיָדָע בָּאוּ שָׂרֵי יְהוּדָה וַיִּֽשְׁתַּחֲווּ לַמֶּלֶךְ אָז שָׁמַע הַמֶּלֶךְ אֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened unto them.
וַיִּקְשְׁרוּ עָלָיו וַיִּרְגְּמֻהוּ אֶבֶן בְּמִצְוַת הַמֶּלֶךְ בַּֽחֲצַר בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of the LORD.
וְלֹֽא-זָכַר יוֹאָשׁ הַמֶּלֶךְ הַחֶסֶד אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה יְהֽוֹיָדָע אָבִיו עִמּוֹ וַֽיַּהֲרֹג אֶת-בְּנוֹ וּכְמוֹתוֹ אָמַר יֵרֶא יְהוָה וְיִדְרֹֽשׁ׃
Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, The LORD look upon it, and require it.
וַיְהִי׀ לִתְקוּפַת הַשָּׁנָה עָלָה עָלָיו חֵיל אֲרָם וַיָּבֹאוּ אֶל-יְהוּדָה וִירוּשָׁלִַם וַיַּשְׁחִיתוּ אֶת-כָּל-שָׂרֵי הָעָם מֵעָם וְכָל-שְׁלָלָם שִׁלְּחוּ לְמֶלֶךְ דַּרְמָֽשֶׂק׃
And it came to pass at the end of the year, that the host of Syria came up against him: and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoil of them unto the king of Damascus.
וּבְלֶכְתָּם מִמֶּנּוּ כִּֽי-עָזְבוּ אֹתוֹ (במחליים) בְּמַחֲלוּיִם רַבִּים הִתְקַשְּׁרוּ עָלָיו עֲבָדָיו בִּדְמֵי בְּנֵי יְהֽוֹיָדָע הַכֹּהֵן וַיַּֽהַרְגֻהוּ עַל-מִטָּתוֹ וַיָּמֹת וַֽיִּקְבְּרֻהוּ בְּעִיר דָּוִיד וְלֹא קְבָרֻהוּ בְּקִבְרוֹת הַמְּלָכִֽים׃
And when they were departed from him, (for they left him in great diseases,) his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchres of the kings.
וּבָנָיו (ורב) יִרֶב הַמַּשָּׂא עָלָיו וִיסוֹד בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִים הִנָּם כְּתוּבִים עַל-מִדְרַשׁ סֵפֶר הַמְּלָכִים וַיִּמְלֹךְ אֲמַצְיָהוּ בְנוֹ תַּחְתָּֽיו׃
Now concerning his sons, and the greatness of the burdens laid upon him, and the repairing of the house of God, behold, they are written in the story of the book of the kings. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
וַיְהִי כַּֽאֲשֶׁר חָֽזְקָה הַמַּמְלָכָה עָלָיו וַֽיַּהֲרֹג אֶת-עֲבָדָיו הַמַּכִּים אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ אָבִֽיו׃
Now it came to pass, when the kingdom was established to him, that he slew his servants that had killed the king his father.
וְאִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים בָּא אֵלָיו לֵאמֹר הַמֶּלֶךְ אַל-יָבוֹא עִמְּךָ צְבָא יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי אֵין יְהוָה עִם-יִשְׂרָאֵל כֹּל בְּנֵי אֶפְרָֽיִם׃
But there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for the LORD is not with Israel, to wit, with all the children of Ephraim.
וַיְהִי׀ בְּדַבְּרוֹ אֵלָיו וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ הַלְיוֹעֵץ לַמֶּלֶךְ נְתַנּוּךָ חֲדַל-לְךָ לָמָּה יַכּוּךָ וַיֶּחְדַּל הַנָּבִיא וַיֹּאמֶר יָדַעְתִּי כִּֽי-יָעַץ אֱלֹהִים לְהַשְׁחִיתֶךָ כִּֽי-עָשִׂיתָ זֹּאת וְלֹא שָׁמַעְתָּ לַֽעֲצָתִֽי׃
And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that the king said unto him, Art thou made of the king's counsel? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet forbare, and said, I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel.
וַיִּוָּעַץ אֲמַצְיָהוּ מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה וַיִּשְׁלַח אֶל-יוֹאָשׁ בֶּן-יְהֽוֹאָחָז בֶּן-יֵהוּא מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל לֵאמֹר (לך) לְכָה נִתְרָאֶה פָנִֽים׃
Then Amaziah king of Judah took advice, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us see one another in the face.
וַיִּשְׁלַח יוֹאָשׁ מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל-אֲמַצְיָהוּ מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה לֵאמֹר הַחוֹחַ אֲשֶׁר בַּלְּבָנוֹן שָׁלַח אֶל-הָאֶרֶז אֲשֶׁר בַּלְּבָנוֹן לֵאמֹר תְּנָֽה-אֶת-בִּתְּךָ לִבְנִי לְאִשָּׁה וַֽתַּעֲבֹר חַיַּת הַשָּׂדֶה אֲשֶׁר בַּלְּבָנוֹן וַתִּרְמֹס אֶת-הַחֽוֹחַ׃
And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon, and trode down the thistle.
וַיַּעַל יוֹאָשׁ מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּתְרָאוּ פָנִים הוּא וַֽאֲמַצְיָהוּ מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה בְּבֵית שֶׁמֶשׁ אֲשֶׁר לִֽיהוּדָֽה׃
So Joash the king of Israel went up; and they saw one another in the face, both he and Amaziah king of Judah, at Beth-shemesh, which belongeth to Judah.
וְאֵת אֲמַצְיָהוּ מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה בֶּן-יוֹאָשׁ בֶּן-יְהֽוֹאָחָז תָּפַשׂ יוֹאָשׁ מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּבֵית שָׁמֶשׁ וַיְבִיאֵהוּ יְרוּשָׁלִַם וַיִּפְרֹץ בְּחוֹמַת יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם מִשַּׁעַר אֶפְרַיִם עַד-שַׁעַר הַפּוֹנֶה אַרְבַּע מֵאוֹת אַמָּֽה׃
And Joash the king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth-shemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.
וְכָֽל-הַזָּהָב וְהַכֶּסֶף וְאֵת כָּל-הַכֵּלִים הַנִּמְצְאִים בְּבֵית-הָֽאֱלֹהִים עִם-עֹבֵד אֱדוֹם וְאֶת-אֹצְרוֹת בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֵת בְּנֵי הַתַּֽעֲרֻבוֹת וַיָּשָׁב שֹֽׁמְרֽוֹן׃
And he took all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of God with Obed-edom, and the treasures of the king's house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
וַיְחִי אֲמַצְיָהוּ בֶן-יוֹאָשׁ מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה אַֽחֲרֵי מוֹת יוֹאָשׁ בֶּן-יְהֽוֹאָחָז מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל חֲמֵשׁ עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָֽה׃
And Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.
וְיֶתֶר דִּבְרֵי אֲמַצְיָהוּ הָרִֽאשֹׁנִים וְהָאַֽחֲרוֹנִים הֲלֹא הִנָּם כְּתוּבִים עַל-סֵפֶר מַלְכֵי-יְהוּדָה וְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, are they not written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
הוּא בָּנָה אֶת-אֵילוֹת וַיְשִׁיבֶהָ לִֽיהוּדָה אַֽחֲרֵי שְׁכַֽב-הַמֶּלֶךְ עִם-אֲבֹתָֽיו׃
He built Eloth, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.
וַיְהִי לְעֻזִּיָּהוּ חַיִל עֹשֵׂה מִלְחָמָה יֽוֹצְאֵי צָבָא לִגְדוּד בְּמִסְפַּר פְּקֻדָּתָם בְּיַד (יעואל) יְעִיאֵל הַסּוֹפֵר וּמַֽעֲשֵׂיָהוּ הַשּׁוֹטֵר עַל יַד-חֲנַנְיָהוּ מִשָּׂרֵי הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
Moreover Uzziah had an host of fighting men, that went out to war by bands, according to the number of their account by the hand of Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the ruler, under the hand of Hananiah, one of the king's captains.
וְעַל-יָדָם חֵיל צָבָא שְׁלֹשׁ מֵאוֹת אֶלֶף וְשִׁבְעַת אֲלָפִים וַֽחֲמֵשׁ מֵאוֹת עוֹשֵׂי מִלְחָמָה בְּכֹחַ חָיִל לַעְזֹר לַמֶּלֶךְ עַל-הָֽאוֹיֵֽב׃
And under their hand was an army, three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
וַיַּֽעַמְדוּ עַל-עֻזִּיָּהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֹּאמְרוּ לוֹ לֹֽא-לְךָ עֻזִּיָּהוּ לְהַקְטִיר לַֽיהוָה כִּי לַכֹּֽהֲנִים בְּנֵֽי-אַהֲרֹן הַמְקֻדָּשִׁים לְהַקְטִיר צֵא מִן-הַמִּקְדָּשׁ כִּי מָעַלְתָּ וְלֹֽא-לְךָ לְכָבוֹד מֵֽיְהוָה אֱלֹהִֽים׃
And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto the LORD, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be for thine honour from the LORD God.
וַיְהִי עֻזִּיָּהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ מְצֹרָע׀ עַד-יוֹם מוֹתוֹ וַיֵּשֶׁב בֵּית (החפשות) הַֽחָפְשִׁית מְצֹרָע כִּי נִגְזַר מִבֵּית יְהוָה וְיוֹתָם בְּנוֹ עַל-בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ שׁוֹפֵט אֶת-עַם הָאָֽרֶץ׃
And Uzziah the king was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a several house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the LORD: and Jotham his son was over the king's house, judging the people of the land.
וַיִּשְׁכַּב עֻזִּיָּהוּ עִם-אֲבֹתָיו וַיִּקְבְּרוּ אֹתוֹ עִם-אֲבֹתָיו בִּשְׂדֵה הַקְּבוּרָה אֲשֶׁר לַמְּלָכִים כִּי אָֽמְרוּ מְצוֹרָע הוּא וַיִּמְלֹךְ יוֹתָם בְּנוֹ תַּחְתָּֽיו׃
So Uzziah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the field of the burial which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
וְהוּא נִלְחַם עִם-מֶלֶךְ בְּנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן וַיֶּֽחֱזַק עֲלֵיהֶם וַיִּתְּנוּ-לוֹ בְנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן בַּשָּׁנָה הַהִיא מֵאָה כִּכַּר-כֶּסֶף וַֽעֲשֶׂרֶת אֲלָפִים כֹּרִים חִטִּים וּשְׂעוֹרִים עֲשֶׂרֶת אֲלָפִים זֹאת הֵשִׁיבוּ לוֹ בְּנֵי עַמּוֹן וּבַשָּׁנָה הַשֵּׁנִית וְהַשְּׁלִשִֽׁית׃
He fought also with the king of the Ammonites, and prevailed against them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year an hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of Ammon pay unto him, both the second year, and the third.
וְיֶתֶר דִּבְרֵי יוֹתָם וְכָל-מִלְחֲמֹתָיו וּדְרָכָיו הִנָּם כְּתוּבִים עַל-סֵפֶר מַלְכֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל וִֽיהוּדָֽה׃
Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
וַיֵּלֶךְ בְּדַרְכֵי מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְגַם מַסֵּכוֹת עָשָׂה לַבְּעָלִֽים׃
For he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made also molten images for Baalim.
וַֽיִּתְּנֵהוּ יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו בְּיַד מֶלֶךְ אֲרָם וַיַּכּוּ-בוֹ וַיִּשְׁבּוּ מִמֶּנּוּ שִׁבְיָה גְדוֹלָה וַיָּבִיאוּ דַּרְמָשֶׂק וְגַם בְּיַד-מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל נִתָּן וַיַּךְ-בּוֹ מַכָּה גְדוֹלָֽה׃
Wherefore the LORD his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria; and they smote him, and carried away a great multitude of them captives, and brought them to Damascus. And he was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who smote him with a great slaughter.
וַֽיַּהֲרֹג זִכְרִי׀ גִּבּוֹר אֶפְרַיִם אֶת-מַֽעֲשֵׂיָהוּ בֶּן-הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֶת-עַזְרִיקָם נְגִיד הַבָּיִת וְאֶת-אֶלְקָנָה מִשְׁנֵה הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
And Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, slew Maaseiah the king's son, and Azrikam the governor of the house, and Elkanah that was next to the king.
בָּעֵת הַהִיא שָׁלַח הַמֶּלֶךְ אָחָז עַל-מַלְכֵי אַשּׁוּר לַעְזֹר לֽוֹ׃
At that time did king Ahaz send unto the kings of Assyria to help him.
כִּֽי-הִכְנִיעַ יְהוָה אֶת-יְהוּדָה בַּֽעֲבוּר אָחָז מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי הִפְרִיעַ בִּֽיהוּדָה וּמָעוֹל מַעַל בַּֽיהוָֽה׃
For the LORD brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel; for he made Judah naked, and transgressed sore against the LORD.
וַיָּבֹא עָלָיו תִּלְּגַת פִּלְנְאֶסֶר מֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וַיָּצַר לוֹ וְלֹא חֲזָקֽוֹ׃
And Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria came unto him, and distressed him, but strengthened him not.
כִּֽי-חָלַק אָחָז אֶת-בֵּית יְהוָה וְאֶת-בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ וְהַשָּׂרִים וַיִּתֵּן לְמֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וְלֹא לְעֶזְרָה לֽוֹ׃
For Ahaz took away a portion out of the house of the LORD, and out of the house of the king, and of the princes, and gave it unto the king of Assyria: but he helped him not.
וּבְעֵת הָצֵר לוֹ וַיּוֹסֶף לִמְעוֹל בַּֽיהוָה הוּא הַמֶּלֶךְ אָחָֽז׃
And in the time of his distress did he trespass yet more against the LORD: this is that king Ahaz.
וַיִּזְבַּח לֵֽאלֹהֵי דַרְמֶשֶׂק הַמַּכִּים בּוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר כִּי אֱלֹהֵי מַלְכֵֽי-אֲרָם הֵם מַעְזְרִים אֹתָם לָהֶם אֲזַבֵּחַ וְיַעְזְרוּנִי וְהֵם הָֽיוּ-לוֹ לְהַכְשִׁילוֹ וּלְכָל-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
For he sacrificed unto the gods of Damascus, which smote him: and he said, Because the gods of the kings of Syria help them, therefore will I sacrifice to them, that they may help me. But they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel.
וְיֶתֶר דְּבָרָיו וְכָל-דְּרָכָיו הָרִֽאשֹׁנִים וְהָאַֽחֲרוֹנִים הִנָּם כְּתוּבִים עַל-סֵפֶר מַלְכֵֽי-יְהוּדָה וְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Now the rest of his acts and of all his ways, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
וַיִּשְׁכַּב אָחָז עִם-אֲבֹתָיו וַֽיִּקְבְּרֻהוּ בָעִיר בִּירוּשָׁלִַם כִּי לֹא הֱבִיאֻהוּ לְקִבְרֵי מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּמְלֹךְ יְחִזְקִיָּהֽוּ בְנוֹ תַּחְתָּֽיו׃
And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, even in Jerusalem: but they brought him not into the sepulchres of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.
וַיַּֽאַסְפוּ אֶת-אֲחֵיהֶם וַיִּֽתְקַדְּשׁוּ וַיָּבֹאוּ כְמִצְוַת-הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּדִבְרֵי יְהוָה לְטַהֵר בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And they gathered their brethren, and sanctified themselves, and came, according to the commandment of the king, by the words of the LORD, to cleanse the house of the LORD.
וַיָּבוֹאוּ פְנִימָה אֶל-חִזְקִיָּהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֹּאמְרוּ טִהַרְנוּ אֶת-כָּל-בֵּית יְהוָה אֶת-מִזְבַּח הָֽעוֹלָה וְאֶת-כָּל-כֵּלָיו וְאֶת-שֻׁלְחַן הַֽמַּעֲרֶכֶת וְאֶת-כָּל-כֵּלָֽיו׃
Then they went in to Hezekiah the king, and said, We have cleansed all the house of the LORD, and the altar of burnt offering, with all the vessels thereof, and the shewbread table, with all the vessels thereof.
וְאֵת כָּל-הַכֵּלִים אֲשֶׁר הִזְנִיחַ הַמֶּלֶךְ אָחָז בְּמַלְכוּתוֹ בְּמַֽעֲלוֹ הֵכַנּוּ וְהִקְדָּשְׁנוּ וְהִנָּם לִפְנֵי מִזְבַּח יְהוָֽה׃
Moreover all the vessels, which king Ahaz in his reign did cast away in his transgression, have we prepared and sanctified, and, behold, they are before the altar of the LORD.
וַיַּשְׁכֵּם יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֶּֽאֱסֹף אֵת שָׂרֵי הָעִיר וַיַּעַל בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
Then Hezekiah the king rose early, and gathered the rulers of the city, and went up to the house of the LORD.
וַיַּגִּישׁוּ אֶת-שְׂעִירֵי הַֽחַטָּאת לִפְנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וְהַקָּהָל וַיִּסְמְכוּ יְדֵיהֶם עֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
And they brought forth the he goats for the sin offering before the king and the congregation; and they laid their hands upon them:
