2 Kings 14:1-20

In the second
<08147>
year
<08141>
of Joash
<03101>
son
<01121>
of Jehoahaz
<03099>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
reigned
<04427> (8804)
Amaziah
<0558>
the son
<01121>
of Joash
<03101>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_.
He was twenty
<06242>
and five
<02568>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,
and 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>_,
yet
<07535>
not like David
<01732>
his father
<01>_:
he did
<06213> (8804)
according to all things as Joash
<03101>
his father
<01>
did
<06213> (8804)_.
Howbeit the high places
<01116>
were not taken away
<05493> (8804)_:
as yet
<05750>
the people
<05971>
did sacrifice
<02076> (8764)
and burnt incense
<06999> (8764)
on the high places
<01116>_.
And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom
<04467>
was confirmed
<02388> (8804)
in his hand
<03027>_,
that he slew
<05221> (8686)
his servants
<05650>
which had slain
<05221> (8688)
the king
<04428>
his father
<01>_.
But the children
<01121>
of the murderers
<05221> (8688)
he slew
<04191> (8689)
not: according unto that which is written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the law
<08451>
of Moses
<04872>_,
wherein the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The fathers
<01>
shall not be put to death
<04191> (8714)
for the children
<01121>_,
nor the children
<01121>
be put to death
<04191> (8714)
for the fathers
<01>_;
but every man
<0376>
shall be put to death
<04191> (8799)
for his own sin
<02399>_.
He slew
<05221> (8689)
of Edom
<0123>
in the valley
<01516>
of salt
<04417>
ten
<06235>
thousand
<0505>_,
and took
<08610> (8804)
Selah
<05554>
by war
<04421>_,
and called
<07121> (8799)
the name
<08034>
of it Joktheel
<03371>
unto this day
<03117>_.
{Selah: or, the rock}
Then Amaziah
<0558>
sent
<07971> (8804)
messengers
<04397>
to Jehoash
<03060>_,
the son
<01121>
of Jehoahaz
<03059>
son
<01121>
of Jehu
<03058>_,
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Come
<03212> (8798)_,
let us look
<07200> (8691)
one another in the face
<06440>_.
And Jehoash
<03060>
the 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
<05674> (8799)
by a wild
<07704>
beast
<02416>
that [was] in Lebanon
<03844>_,
and trode down
<07429> (8799)
the thistle
<02336>_.
Thou hast indeed
<05221> (8687)
smitten
<05221> (8689)
Edom
<0123>_,
and thine heart
<03820>
hath lifted thee up
<05375> (8804)_:
glory
<03513> (8734)
[of this], and tarry
<03427> (8798)
at home
<01004>_:
for why shouldest thou meddle
<01624> (8691)
to [thy] hurt
<07451>_,
that thou shouldest fall
<05307> (8804)_,
[even] thou, and Judah
<03063>
with thee? {at home: Heb. at thy house}
But Amaziah
<0558>
would not hear
<08085> (8804)_.
Therefore Jehoash
<03060>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
went up
<05927> (8799)_;
and he and Amaziah
<0558>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
looked
<07200> (8691)
one another in the face
<06440>
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 their tents
<0168>_.
{put...: Heb. smitten}
And Jehoash
<03060>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
took
<08610> (8804)
Amaziah
<0558>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
the son
<01121>
of Jehoash
<03060>
the son
<01121>
of Ahaziah
<0274>_,
at Bethshemesh
<01053>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and brake down
<06555> (8799)
the wall
<02346>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
from the gate
<08179>
of Ephraim
<0669>
unto the corner
<06438>
gate
<08179>_,
four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>
cubits
<0520>_.
And he took
<03947> (8804)
all the gold
<02091>
and silver
<03701>_,
and all the vessels
<03627>
that were found
<04672> (8737)
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and in the treasures
<0214>
of the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
and hostages
<01121> <08594>_,
and returned
<07725> (8799)
to Samaria
<08111>_.
Now the rest
<03499>
of the acts
<01697>
of Jehoash
<03060>
which he did
<06213> (8804)_,
and his might
<01369>_,
and how he fought
<03898> (8738)
with Amaziah
<0558>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>
of the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_?
And Jehoash
<03060>
slept
<07901> (8799)
with his fathers
<01>_,
and was buried
<06912> (8735)
in Samaria
<08111>
with the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_;
and Jeroboam
<03379>
his son
<01121>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
in his stead.
And Amaziah
<0558>
the son
<01121>
of Joash
<03101>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
lived
<02421> (8799)
after
<0310>
the death
<04194>
of Jehoash
<03060>
son
<01121>
of Jehoahaz
<03059>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
fifteen
<02568> <06240>
years
<08141>_.
And the rest
<03499>
of the acts
<01697>
of Amaziah
<0558>_,
[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>
of the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_?
Now 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)
after
<0310>
him to Lachish
<03923>_,
and slew
<04191> (8686)
him there.
And they brought
<05375> (8799)
him on horses
<05483>_:
and he was buried
<06912> (8735)
at Jerusalem
<03389>
with his fathers
<01>
in the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_.
