2 Kings 16:1-20

In the seventeenth
<07651> <06240> <08141>
year
<08141>
of Pekah
<06492>
the son
<01121>
of Remaliah
<07425>
Ahaz
<0271>
the son
<01121>
of Jotham
<03147>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
began to reign
<04427> (8804)_.
Twenty
<06242>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
[was] Ahaz
<0271>
when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,
and reigned
<04427> (8804)
sixteen
<08337> <06240>
years
<08141>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and did
<06213> (8804)
not [that which was] right
<03477>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>
his God
<0430>_,
like David
<01732>
his father
<01>_.
But he walked
<03212> (8799)
in the way
<01870>
of the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
yea, and made his son
<01121>
to pass through
<05674> (8689)
the fire
<0784>_,
according to the abominations
<08441>
of the heathen
<01471>_,
whom the LORD
<03068>
cast out
<03423> (8689)
from before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And he sacrificed
<02076> (8762)
and burnt incense
<06999> (8762)
in the high places
<01116>_,
and on the hills
<01389>_,
and under every green
<07488>
tree
<06086>_.
Then Rezin
<07526>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>
and Pekah
<06492>
son
<01121>
of Remaliah
<07425>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
came up
<05927> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
to war
<04421>_:
and they besieged
<06696> (8799)
Ahaz
<0271>_,
but could
<03201> (8804)
not overcome
<03898> (8736)
[him].
At that time
<06256>
Rezin
<07526>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>
recovered
<07725> (8689)
Elath
<0359>
to Syria
<0758> (8675) <0130>_,
and drave
<05394> (8762)
the Jews
<03064>
from Elath
<0359>_:
and the Syrians
<0726>
came
<0935> (8804)
to Elath
<0359>_,
and dwelt
<03427> (8799)
there unto this day
<03117>_.
{from Elath: Heb. from Eloth}
So Ahaz
<0271>
sent
<07971> (8799)
messengers
<04397>
to Tiglathpileser
<08407>
king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I [am] thy servant
<05650>
and thy son
<01121>_:
come up
<05927> (8798)_,
and save
<03467> (8685)
me out of the hand
<03709>
of the king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>_,
and out of the hand
<03709>
of the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
which rise up
<06965> (8801)
against me.
And Ahaz
<0271>
took
<03947> (8799)
the silver
<03701>
and gold
<02091>
that was found
<04672> (8737)
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and in the treasures
<0214>
of the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
and sent
<07971> (8799)
[it for] a present
<07810>
to the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_.
And the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>
hearkened
<08085> (8799)
unto him: for the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>
went up
<05927> (8799)
against Damascus
<01834>_,
and took
<08610> (8799)
it, and carried [the people of] it captive
<01540> (8686)
to Kir
<07024>_,
and slew
<04191> (8689)
Rezin
<07526>_.
{Damascus: Heb. Dammesek}
And king
<04428>
Ahaz
<0271>
went
<03212> (8799)
to Damascus
<01834>
to meet
<07125> (8800)
Tiglathpileser
<08407>
king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_,
and saw
<07200> (8799)
an altar
<04196>
that [was] at Damascus
<01834>_:
and king
<04428>
Ahaz
<0271>
sent
<07971> (8799)
to Urijah
<0223>
the priest
<03548>
the fashion
<01823>
of the altar
<04196>_,
and the pattern
<08403>
of it, according to all the workmanship
<04639>
thereof. {Damascus: Heb. Dammesek}
And Urijah
<0223>
the priest
<03548>
built
<01129> (8799)
an altar
<04196>
according to all that king
<04428>
Ahaz
<0271>
had sent
<07971> (8804)
from Damascus
<01834>_:
so Urijah
<0223>
the priest
<03548>
made
<06213> (8804)
[it] against king
<04428>
Ahaz
<0271>
came
<0935> (8800)
from Damascus
<01834>_.
And when the king
<04428>
was come
<0935> (8799)
from Damascus
<01834>_,
the king
<04428>
saw
<07200> (8799)
the altar
<04196>_:
and the king
<04428>
approached
<07126> (8799)
to the altar
<04196>_,
and offered
<05927> (8686)
thereon.
And he burnt
<06999> (8686)
his burnt offering
<05930>
and his meat offering
<04503>_,
and poured
<05258> (8686)
his drink offering
<05262>_,
and sprinkled
<02236> (8799)
the blood
<01818>
of his peace offerings
<08002>_,
upon the altar
<04196>_.
{his peace offerings: Heb. the peace offerings which were his}
And he brought
<07126> (8686)
also the brasen
<05178>
altar
<04196>_,
which [was] before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
from the forefront
<06440>
of the house
<01004>_,
from between the altar
<04196>
and the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and put
<05414> (8799)
it on the north
<06828>
side
<03409>
of the altar
<04196>_.
And king
<04428>
Ahaz
<0271>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
Urijah
<0223>
the priest
<03548>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Upon the great
<01419>
altar
<04196>
burn
<06999> (8685)
the morning
<01242>
burnt offering
<05930>_,
and the evening
<06153>
meat offering
<04503>_,
and the king's
<04428>
burnt sacrifice
<05930>_,
and his meat offering
<04503>_,
with the burnt offering
<05930>
of all the people
<05971>
of the land
<0776>_,
and their meat offering
<04503>_,
and their drink offerings
<05262>_;
and sprinkle
<02236> (8799)
upon it all the blood
<01818>
of the burnt offering
<05930>_,
and all the blood
<01818>
of the sacrifice
<02077>_:
and the brasen
<05178>
altar
<04196>
shall be for me to enquire
<01239> (8763)
[by].
Thus did
<06213> (8799)
Urijah
<0223>
the priest
<03548>_,
according to all that king
<04428>
Ahaz
<0271>
commanded
<06680> (8765)_.
And king
<04428>
Ahaz
<0271>
cut off
<07112> (8762)
the borders
<04526>
of the bases
<04350>_,
and removed
<05493> (8686)
the laver
<03595>
from off them; and took down
<03381> (8689)
the sea
<03220>
from off the brasen
<05178>
oxen
<01241>
that [were] under it, and put
<05414> (8799)
it upon a pavement
<04837>
of stones
<068>_.
And the covert
<04329> (8675) <04329>
for the sabbath
<07676>
that they had built
<01129> (8804)
in the house
<01004>_,
and the king's
<04428>
entry
<03996>
without
<02435>_,
turned
<05437> (8689)
he from the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
for
<06440>
the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_.
Now the rest
<03499>
of the acts
<01697>
of Ahaz
<0271>
which he did
<06213> (8804)_,
[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>
of the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_?
And Ahaz
<0271>
slept
<07901> (8799)
with his fathers
<01>_,
and was buried
<06912> (8735)
with his fathers
<01>
in the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_:
and Hezekiah
<02396>
his son
<01121>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
in his stead.
