2 Chronicles 25:1-28

Amaziah
<0558>

[was] twenty
<06242>

and five
<02568>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

[when] he began to reign
<04427> (8804)_,

and he reigned
<04427> (8804)

twenty
<06242>

and nine
<08672>

years
<08141>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And his mother's
<0517>

name
<08034>

[was] Jehoaddan
<03086>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And he did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] right
<03477>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

but not with a perfect
<08003>

heart
<03824>_.

Now it came to pass, when the kingdom
<04467>

was established
<02388> (8804)

to him, that he slew
<02026> (8799)

his servants
<05650>

that had killed
<05221> (8688)

the king
<04428>

his father
<01>_.

{established...: Heb. confirmed upon him}

But he slew
<04191> (8689)

not their children
<01121>_,

but [did] as [it is] written
<03789> (8803)

in the law
<08451>

in the book
<05612>

of Moses
<04872>_,

where the LORD
<03068>

commanded
<06680> (8765)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The fathers
<01>

shall not die
<04191> (8799)

for the children
<01121>_,

neither shall the children
<01121>

die
<04191> (8799)

for the fathers
<01>_,

but every man
<0376>

shall die
<04191> (8799)

for his own sin
<02399>_.

Moreover Amaziah
<0558>

gathered
<06908> (0)

Judah
<03063>

together
<06908> (8799)_,

and made
<05975> (8686)

them captains
<08269>

over thousands
<0505>_,

and captains
<08269>

over hundreds
<03967>_,

according to the houses
<01004>

of [their] fathers
<01>_,

throughout all Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>_:

and he numbered
<06485> (8799)

them from twenty
<06242>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

and above
<04605>_,

and found
<04672> (8799)

them three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

thousand
<0505>

choice
<0977> (8803)

[men, able] to go forth
<03318> (8802)

to war
<06635>_,

that could handle
<0270> (8802)

spear
<07420>

and shield
<06793>_.

He hired
<07936> (8799)

also an hundred
<03967>

thousand
<0505>

mighty
<01368>

men of valour
<02428>

out of Israel
<03478>

for an hundred
<03967>

talents
<03603>

of silver
<03701>_.

But there came
<0935> (8804)

a man
<0376>

of God
<0430>

to him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

O king
<04428>_,

let not the army
<06635>

of Israel
<03478>

go
<0935> (8799)

with thee; for the LORD
<03068>

[is] not with Israel
<03478>_,

[to wit, with] all the children
<01121>

of Ephraim
<0669>_.

But if thou wilt go
<0935> (8798)_,

do
<06213> (8798)

[it], be strong
<02388> (8798)

for the battle
<04421>_:

God
<0430>

shall make thee fall
<03782> (8686)

before
<06440>

the enemy
<0341> (8802)_:

for God
<0430>

hath
<03426>

power
<03581>

to help
<05826> (8800)_,

and to cast down
<03782> (8687)_.

And Amaziah
<0558>

said
<0559> (8799)

to the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

But what shall we do
<06213> (8800)

for the hundred
<03967>

talents
<03603>

which I have given
<05414> (8804)

to the army
<01416>

of Israel
<03478>_?

And the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>

answered
<0559> (8799)_,

The LORD
<03068>

is
<03426>

able to give
<05414> (8800)

thee much more
<07235> (8687)

than this. {army: Heb. band}

Then Amaziah
<0558>

separated
<0914> (8686)

them, [to wit], the army
<01416>

that was come
<0935> (8804)

to him out of Ephraim
<0669>_,

to go
<03212> (0)

home
<04725>

again
<03212> (8800)_:

wherefore their anger
<0639>

was greatly
<03966>

kindled
<02734> (8799)

against Judah
<03063>_,

and they returned
<07725> (8799)

home
<04725>

in great
<02750>

anger
<0639>_.

{home again: Heb. to their place} {in great...: Heb. in heat of anger}

And Amaziah
<0558>

strengthened
<02388> (8694)

himself, and led forth
<05090> (8799)

his people
<05971>_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

to the valley
<01516>

of salt
<04417>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

of the children
<01121>

of Seir
<08165>

ten
<06235>

thousand
<0505>_.

And [other] ten
<06235>

thousand
<0505>

[left] alive
<02416>

did the children
<01121>

of Judah
<03063>

carry away captive
<07617> (8804)_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

them unto the top
<07218>

of the rock
<05553>_,

and cast them down
<07993> (8686)

from the top
<07218>

of the rock
<05553>_,

that they all were broken in pieces
<01234> (8738)_.

But the soldiers
<01121>

of the army
<01416>

which Amaziah
<0558>

sent back
<07725> (8689)_,

that they should not go
<03212> (8800)

with him to battle
<04421>_,

fell
<06584> (8799)

upon the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>_,

from Samaria
<08111>

even unto Bethhoron
<01032>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

three
<07969>

thousand
<0505>

of them, and took
<0962> (8799)

much
<07227>

spoil
<0961>_.

{the soldiers...: Heb. the sons of the band}

Now it came to pass, after
<0310>

that Amaziah
<0558>

was come
<0935> (8800)

from the slaughter
<05221> (8687)

of the Edomites
<0130>_,

that he brought
<0935> (8686)

the gods
<0430>

of the children
<01121>

of Seir
<08165>_,

and set them up
<05975> (8686)

[to be] his gods
<0430>_,

and bowed down
<07812> (8691)

himself before
<06440>

them, and burned incense
<06999> (8762)

unto them.

Wherefore the anger
<0639>

of the LORD
<03068>

was kindled
<02734> (8799)

against Amaziah
<0558>_,

and he sent
<07971> (8799)

unto him a prophet
<05030>_,

which said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Why hast thou sought
<01875> (8804)

after the gods
<0430>

of the people
<05971>_,

which could not deliver
<05337> (8689)

their own people
<05971>

out of thine hand
<03027>_?

And it came to pass, as he talked
<01696> (8763)

with him, that [the king] said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Art thou made
<05414> (8804)

of the king's
<04428>

counsel
<03289> (8802)_?

forbear
<02308> (8798)_;

why shouldest thou be smitten
<05221> (8686)_?

Then the prophet
<05030>

forbare
<02308> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

I know
<03045> (8804)

that God
<0430>

hath determined
<03289> (8804)

to destroy
<07843> (8687)

thee, because thou hast done
<06213> (8804)

this, and hast not hearkened
<08085> (8804)

unto my counsel
<06098>_.

{determined: Heb. counselled}

Then Amaziah
<0558>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

took advice
<03289> (8735)_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)

to Joash
<03101>_,

the son
<01121>

of Jehoahaz
<03059>_,

the son
<01121>

of Jehu
<03058>_,

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

let us see one another
<07200> (8691)

in the face
<06440>_.

And Joash
<03101>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

sent
<07971> (8799)

to Amaziah
<0558>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The thistle
<02336>

that [was] in Lebanon
<03844>

sent
<07971> (8804)

to the cedar
<0730>

that [was] in Lebanon
<03844>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Give
<05414> (8798)

thy daughter
<01323>

to my son
<01121>

to wife
<0802>_:

and there passed by
<05674> (8799)

a wild
<07704>

beast
<02416>

that [was] in Lebanon
<03844>_,

and trode down
<07429> (8799)

the thistle
<02336>_.

{thistle: or, furze bush, or, thorn} {a wild...: Heb. a beast of the field}

Thou sayest
<0559> (8804)_,

Lo, thou hast smitten
<05221> (8689)

the Edomites
<0123>_;

and thine heart
<03820>

lifteth thee up
<05375> (8804)

to boast
<03513> (8687)_:

abide
<03427> (8798)

now at home
<01004>_;

why shouldest thou meddle
<01624> (8691)

to [thine] hurt
<07451>_,

that thou shouldest fall
<05307> (8804)_,

[even] thou, and Judah
<03063>

with thee?

But Amaziah
<0558>

would not hear
<08085> (8804)_;

for it [came] of God
<0430>_,

that he might deliver
<05414> (8800)

them into the hand
<03027>

[of their enemies], because they sought
<01875> (8804)

after the gods
<0430>

of Edom
<0123>_.

So Joash
<03101>

the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

went up
<05927> (8799)_;

and they saw one another
<07200> (8691)

in the face
<06440>_,

[both] he and Amaziah
<0558>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

at Bethshemesh
<01053>_,

which [belongeth] to Judah
<03063>_.

And Judah
<03063>

was put to the worse
<05062> (8735)

before
<06440>

Israel
<03478>_,

and they fled
<05127> (8799)

every man
<0376>

to his tent
<0168>_.

{put...: Heb. smitten}

And Joash
<03101>

the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

took
<08610> (8804)

Amaziah
<0558>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

the son
<01121>

of Joash
<03101>_,

the son
<01121>

of Jehoahaz
<03059>_,

at Bethshemesh
<01053>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

him to Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and brake down
<06555> (8799)

the wall
<02346>

of Jerusalem
<03389>

from the gate
<08179>

of Ephraim
<0669>

to the corner
<06437> (8802)

gate
<08179>_,

four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

cubits
<0520>_.

{the corner...: Heb. the gate of it that looketh}

And [he took] all the gold
<02091>

and the silver
<03701>_,

and all the vessels
<03627>

that were found
<04672> (8737)

in the house
<01004>

of God
<0430>

with Obededom
<05654>_,

and the treasures
<0214>

of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

the hostages
<01121> <08594>

also, and returned
<07725> (8799)

to Samaria
<08111>_.

And Amaziah
<0558>

the son
<01121>

of Joash
<03101>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

lived
<02421> (8799)

after
<0310>

the death
<04194>

of Joash
<03101>

son
<01121>

of Jehoahaz
<03059>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

fifteen
<02568> <06240>

years
<08141>_.

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Amaziah
<0558>_,

first
<07223>

and last
<0314>_,

behold, [are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

and Israel
<03478>_?

Now after the time
<06256>

that Amaziah
<0558>

did turn away
<05493> (8804)

from following
<0310>

the LORD
<03068>

they made
<07194> (8799)

a conspiracy
<07195>

against him in Jerusalem
<03389>_;

and he fled
<05127> (8799)

to Lachish
<03923>_:

but they sent
<07971> (8799)

to Lachish
<03923>

after
<0310>

him, and slew
<04191> (8686)

him there. {from...: Heb. from after} {made...: Heb. conspired a conspiracy}

And they brought
<05375> (8799)

him upon horses
<05483>_,

and buried
<06912> (8799)

him with his fathers
<01>

in the city
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>_.
