列王紀下 1
1 阿哈布死後，摩阿布就背叛了以色列。
Then Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab:
2 阿哈齊雅在撒瑪黎雅從樓上的欄杆上跌下來就病了，遂打發使者，吩咐他們說：「你們去求問厄刻龍的神巴耳則步布，我這病寒能好嗎﹖」
And Ahaziah fell thorow the lattesse windowe in his vpper chamber which was in Samaria: so he was sicke: then he sent messengers, to whome he saide, Goe, and enquire of Baal-zebub the God of Ekron, if I shall recouer of this my disease.
3 上主的使者對提市貝人厄里亞說：「快起身，去迎撒瑪黎雅王的使者，問他們說：你們去求問厄刻龍的神巴耳則步布，難道在以色列沒有天主嗎﹖
Then the Angel of the Lord said to Eliiah the Tishbite, Arise, and goe vp to meete the messengers of the King of Samaria, and say vnto them, Is it not because there is no God in Israel, that ye goe to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron?
4 為此，上主這樣說：你再不能從你所上的床上下來，你必定要死。」厄里亞就去了。
Wherefore thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not come downe from the bed on which thou art gone vp, but shalt die the death. So Eliiah departed.
5 使者回來見了君王，阿哈齊雅問他們說：「你們為什麼回來了。」
And the messengers returned vnto him, to whome he said, Why are ye nowe returned?
6 他們回答說：「有一個人迎上我們來，對我們說：你們回去見打發你們來的君王，對他說：上主這樣說：你派人去求問厄刻龍的神巴耳則步布，難道以色列沒有天主嗎﹖為此，你再不能從你所上的床上下來，你必定要死。」
And they answered him, There came a man and met vs, and saide vnto vs, Goe, and returne vnto the King which sent you, and say vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Is it not because there is no God in Israel, that thou sendest to enquire of Baal-zebub the God of Ekron? Therefore thou shalt not come downe from the bed, on which thou art gone vp, but shalt die ye death.
7 君王問他們說：「迎上你們，且告訴你們這些話的是怎樣的一個人﹖」
And he saide vnto them, What maner of man was he which came and met you, and tolde you these wordes?
8 他們回答說，「是一個身穿皮毛衣，腰束皮帶的人。」君王說：「這一定是提市貝人厄里亞。」
And they said vnto him, He was an hearie man, and girded with a girdle of lether about his loynes. Then sayde he, It is Eliiah the Tishbite.
9 王遂派五十夫長，帶領五十人，去見厄里亞。他上去見厄里亞，厄里亞正坐在山頂上。五十夫長便對厄里亞說：「天主的人，王命你下去。」
Therefore the King sent vnto him a captaine ouer fiftie with his fiftie men, who went vp vnto him: for beholde, he sate on the toppe of a mountaine, and he saide vnto him, O man of God, the King hath commanded that thou come downe.
10 厄里亞回答五十夫長說：「如果我是天主的人，願火從天降下，吞噬你和你這五十人! 」果然有火從天降下，吞噬了他和那五十人。
But Eliiah answered, and saide to the captaine ouer the fiftie, If that I be a man of God, let fire come downe from the heauen, and deuoure thee and thy fiftie. So fire came downe from the heauen and deuoured him and his fiftie.
11 王又另派一個五十夫長，帶領五十人，去見厄里亞。五十夫長上去對厄里亞說：「天主的人! 王這樣吩咐：要你快下山! 」
Againe also he sent vnto him another captaine ouer fiftie, with his fiftie. Who spake, and saide vnto him, O man of God, thus the King commandeth, Come downe quickely.
12 厄里亞回答說：「如果我是天主的人，願火從天降下，吞噬你和你這五十人。」果然天主的火從天降下，吞噬了他和那五十人。
But Eliiah answered, and saide vnto them, If I be a man of God, let fire come downe from the heauen, and deuoure thee and thy fiftie. So fire came downe from the heauen, and deuoured him and his fiftie.
13 王又派第三個五十夫長，帶領五十人去。這第三個五十夫長上去，一來到就屈膝跪在厄里亞面前，哀求他說：「天主的人，願我的生命和我這五十人的生命，在你眼中有點價值!
Yet againe he sent the third captaine ouer fiftie with his fiftie. And the thirde captaine ouer fiftie went vp, and came, and fell on his knees before Eliiah, and besought him, and saide vnto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life and the life of these thy fiftie seruants be precious in thy sight.
14 有火從天降下，吞噬了前兩個五十夫長，和他們每人帶領的五十人；現在，願我的生命在你眼中有點價值! 」
Beholde, there came fire downe from the heauen and deuoured the two former captaines ouer fiftie with their fifties: therefore let my life nowe be precious in thy sight.
15 上主的使者對厄里亞說：「你同他下去! 不必害怕。」厄里亞就起身同他一起下去見君王，
And the Angel of the Lord said vnto Eliiah, Goe downe with him, be not afraide of his presence. So he arose, and went downe with him vnto the King.
16 對君王說：「上主這樣說：由於你打發使者去求問厄刻龍的神巴耳則步布，好像在以色列沒有天主可以向他求問指示一樣，因此，你再不能從你所上的床下來，你必定要死。」
And he saide vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast sent messengers to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, (was it not because there was no God in Israel to inquire of his worde?) therefore thou shalt not come downe off the bed, on which thou art gone vp, but shalt die the death.
17 阿哈齊雅果然如上主藉著厄里亞所說的話死了；因為他沒有兒子，他的兄弟耶曷蘭繼位為王，時在猶大王約沙法特的兒子約蘭第二年。
So he dyed according to the worde of the Lord which Eliiah had spoken. And Iehoram began to reigne in his steade, in the seconde yeere of Iehoram the sonne of Iehoshaphat King of Iudah, because he had no sonne.
18 阿哈齊雅其餘的事蹟，都記載在以色列列王實錄上。
Concerning the rest of the actes of Ahaziah, that he did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
