Kings -- 12{1}
In the seventh year of Jehu Jehoash began to reign; and forty years reigned he
in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba. {2} And
Jehoash did that which was right in the sight of the LORD all his days wherein
Jehoiada the priest instructed him. {3} But the high places were not
taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
{4} And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the dedicated things
that is brought into the house of the LORD, even the money of every one that passeth
the account, the money that every man is set at, and all the money that cometh
into any man's heart to bring into the house of the LORD, {5} Let the
priests take it to them, every man of his acquaintance: and let them repair the
breaches of the house, wheresoever any breach shall be found. {6} But
it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had
not repaired the breaches of the house. {7} Then king Jehoash called
for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests , and said unto them, Why repair
ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore receive no more money of your
acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house. {8} And
the priests consented to receive no more money of the people, neither to repair
the breaches of the house. {9} But Jehoiada the priest took a chest,
and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side
as one cometh into the house of the LORD: and the priests that kept the door put
therein all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD. {10}
And it was so, when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the
king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags, and told the
money that was found in the house of the LORD. {11} And they gave the
money, being told, into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight
of the house of the LORD: and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders,
that wrought upon the house of the LORD, {12} And to masons, and hewers
of stone, and to buy timber and hewed stone to repair the breaches of the house
of the LORD, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it. {13}
Howbeit there were not made for the house of the LORD bowls of silver, snuffers,
basons, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money that
was brought into the house of the LORD: {14} But they gave that to
the workmen, and repaired therewith the house of the LORD. {15} Moreover
they reckoned not with the men, into whose hand they delivered the money to be
bestowed on workmen: for they dealt faithfully. {16} The trespass money
and sin money was not brought into the house of the LORD: it was the priests'.
{17} Then Hazael king of Syria went up, and fought against Gath, and took
it: and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem. {18} And Jehoash
king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and
Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things,
and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the LORD, and
in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria: and he went away from
Jerusalem. {19} And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he
did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
{20} And his servants arose, and made a conspiracy, and slew Joash in the
house of Millo, which goeth down to Silla. {21} For Jozachar the son
of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, smote him, and he
died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Amaziah his
son reigned in his stead. Second
Kings -- 13{1}
In the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah king of Judah Jehoahaz
the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned seventeen years.
{2} And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and followed
the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not
therefrom. {3} And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel,
and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand
of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael, all their days. {4} And Jehoahaz besought
the LORD, and the LORD hearkened unto him: for he saw the oppression of Israel,
because the king of Syria oppressed them. {5} (And the LORD gave Israel
a saviour, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians: and the children
of Israel dwelt in their tents, as beforetime. {6} Nevertheless they
departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel sin, but
walked therein: and there remained the grove also in Samaria.) {7}
Neither did he leave of the people to Jehoahaz but fifty horsemen, and ten chariots,
and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria had destroyed them, and had made
them like the dust by threshing. {8} Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz,
and all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles
of the kings of Israel? {9} And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and
they buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son reigned in his stead. {10}
In the thirty and seventh year of Joash king of Judah began Jehoash the son of
Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned sixteen years. {11}
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; he departed not from
all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin: but he walked
therein. {12} And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did,
and his might wherewith he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not
written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel? {13}
And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat upon his throne: and Joash
was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel. {14} Now Elisha was
fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. And Joash the king of Israel came
down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot
of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. {15} And Elisha said unto him,
Take bow and arrows. And he took unto him bow and arrows. {16} And
he said to the king of Israel, Put thine hand upon the bow. And he put his hand
upon it: and Elisha put his hands upon the king's hands. {17} And he
said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. Then Elisha said, Shoot. And
he shot. And he said, The arrow of the LORD's deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance
from Syria: for thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek, till thou have consumed
them. {18} And he said, Take the arrows. And he took them. And he said
unto the king of Israel, Smite upon the ground. And he smote thrice, and stayed.
{19} And the man of God was wroth with him, and said, Thou shouldest have
smitten five or six times; then hadst thou smitten Syria till thou hadst consumed
it: whereas now thou shalt smite Syria but thrice. {20} And Elisha
died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the
coming in of the year. {21} And it came to pass, as they were burying
a man, that, behold, they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the
sepulchre of Elisha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Elisha,
he revived, and stood up on his feet. {22} But Hazael king of Syria
oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz. {23} And the LORD was gracious
unto them, and had compassion on them, and had respect unto them, because of his
covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast
he them from his presence as yet. {24} So Hazael king of Syria died;
and Ben-hadad his son reigned in his stead. {25} And Jehoash the son
of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael the cities,
which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times
did Joash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel. Second
Kings -- 14{1}
In the second year of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel reigned Amaziah the
son of Joash king of Judah. {2} He was twenty and five years old when
he began to reign, and reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's
name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem. {3} And he did that which was right
in the sight of the LORD, yet not like David his father: he did according to all
things as Joash his father did. {4} Howbeit the high places were not
taken away: as yet the people did sacrifice and burnt incense on the high places.
{5} And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom was confirmed in his hand,
that he slew his servants which had slain the king his father. {6}
But the children of the murderers he slew not: according unto that which is written
in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the LORD commanded, saying, The fathers
shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children be put to death for
the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin. {7}
He slew of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and took Selah by war, and
called the name of it Joktheel unto this day. {8} Then Amaziah sent
messengers to Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying,
Come, let us look one another in the face. {9} And Jehoash the 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. {10} Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thine heart hath lifted
thee up: glory of this, and tarry at home: for why shouldest thou meddle to thy
hurt, that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee? {11}
But Amaziah would not hear. Therefore Jehoash king of Israel went up; and he and
Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth-shemesh, which belongeth
to Judah. {12} And Judah was put to the worse before Israel; and they
fled every man to their tents. {13} And Jehoash king of Israel took
Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Jehoash the son of Ahaziah, at Beth-shemesh,
and came to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim
unto the corner gate, four hundred cubits. {14} And he took all the
gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the LORD,
and in the treasures of the king's house, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.
{15} Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his might, and
how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of
the chronicles of the kings of Israel? {16} And Jehoash slept with
his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam
his son reigned in his stead. {17} And Amaziah the son of Joash king
of Judah lived after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen
years. {18} And the rest of the acts of Amaziah, are they not written
in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? {19} Now they
made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: and he fled to Lachish; but they sent
after him to Lachish, and slew him there. {20} And they brought him
on horses: and he was buried at Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.
{21} And all the people of Judah took Azariah, which was sixteen years
old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah. {22} He built
Elath, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.
{23} In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah Jeroboam
the son of Joash king of Israel began to reign in Samaria, and reigned forty and
one years. {24} And he did that which was evil in the sight of the
LORD: he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made
Israel to sin. {25} He restored the coast of Israel from the entering
of Hamath unto the sea of the plain, according to the word of the LORD God of
Israel, which he spake by the hand of his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, the
prophet, which was of Gath-hepher. {26} For the LORD saw the affliction
of Israel, that it was very bitter: for there was not any shut up, nor any left,
nor any helper for Israel. {27} And the LORD said not that he would
blot out the name of Israel from under heaven: but he saved them by the hand of
Jeroboam the son of Joash. {28} Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam,
and all that he did, and his might, how he warred, and how he recovered Damascus,
and Hamath, which belonged to Judah, for Israel, are they not written in the book
of the chronicles of the kings of Israel? {29} And Jeroboam slept with
his fathers, even with the kings of Israel; and Zachariah his son reigned in his
stead. |  |
