< 歷代志下 25 >
1 亞瑪謝登基的時候年二十五歲,在耶路撒冷作王二十九年。他母親名叫約耶但,是耶路撒冷人。
A son of twenty and five year[s] he became king Amaziah and twenty and nine year[s] he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his [was] Jehoaddan from Jerusalem.
And he did the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh only not with a heart complete.
And it was just when it was secure the kingdom on him and he killed servants his who had struck down the king father his.
4 卻沒有治死他們的兒子,是照摩西律法書上耶和華所吩咐的說:「不可因子殺父,也不可因父殺子,各人要為本身的罪而死。」
And children their not he put to death for according to [what] is written in the law in [the] book of Moses which he commanded Yahweh saying not they will die parents on children and children not they will die on parents for each for own sin his they will die.
5 亞瑪謝招聚猶大人,按着猶大和便雅憫的宗族設立千夫長、百夫長,又數點人數,從二十歲以外,能拿槍拿盾牌出去打仗的精兵共有三十萬;
And he assembled Amaziah Judah and he appointed them to [the] house of ancestors to [the] commanders of the thousands and to [the] commanders of the hundreds for all Judah and Benjamin and he enrolled them from a son of twenty year[s] and up-wards and he found them three hundred thousand chosen [man] [one who] goes forth warfare [one who] holds spear and body shield.
6 又用銀子一百他連得,從以色列招募了十萬大能的勇士。
And he hired from Israel one hundred thousand mighty [man] of strength for one hundred talent[s] of silver.
7 有一個神人來見亞瑪謝,對他說:「王啊,不要使以色列的軍兵與你同去,因為耶和華不與以色列人以法蓮的後裔同在。
And [the] man of God he came to him saying O king may not it go with you [the] army of Israel for not Yahweh [is] with Israel all [the] descendants of Ephraim.
8 你若一定要去,就奮勇爭戰吧!但上帝必使你敗在敵人面前;因為上帝能助人得勝,也能使人傾敗。」
That except go you act be strong for the battle he will overthrow you God before [the] enemy for there [is] strength in God to help and to overthrow.
9 亞瑪謝問神人說:「我給了以色列軍的那一百他連得銀子怎麼樣呢?」神人回答說:「耶和華能把更多的賜給你。」
And he said Amaziah to [the] man of God and what? [is] to do to [the] one hundred the talent[s] which I paid to [the] troop[s] of Israel and he said [the] man of God there [belongs] to Yahweh to give to you much more than this.
10 於是亞瑪謝將那從以法蓮來的軍兵分別出來,叫他們回家去。故此,他們甚惱怒猶大人,氣忿忿地回家去了。
And he separated them Amaziah the troop[s] which it had come to him from Ephraim to go to place their and it burned anger their exceedingly on Judah and they returned to place their in [the] heat of anger.
11 亞瑪謝壯起膽來,率領他的民到鹽谷,殺了西珥人一萬。
And Amaziah he strengthened himself and he led out people his and he went [the] Valley of Salt and he struck down [the] people of Seir ten thousand.
12 猶大人又生擒了一萬帶到山崖上,從那裏把他們扔下去,以致他們都摔碎了。
And ten thousand alive they took captive [the] people of Judah and they brought them to [the] top of the cliff and they threw them from [the] top of cliff and all of them they were split open.
13 但亞瑪謝所打發回去、不許一同出征的那些軍兵攻打猶大各城,從撒馬利亞直到伯‧和崙,殺了三千人,搶了許多財物。
And [the] sons of the troop which he had turned back Amaziah from going with him to the battle and they made a raid on [the] cities of Judah from Samaria and to Beth Horon and they struck down of them three thousand and they plundered plunder much.
14 亞瑪謝殺了以東人回來,就把西珥的神像帶回,立為自己的神,在它面前叩拜燒香。
And it was after came Amaziah from defeating [the] Edomites and he brought [the] gods of [the] people of Seir and he set up them for himself to gods and before them he bowed down and to them he made smoke.
15 因此,耶和華的怒氣向亞瑪謝發作,就差一個先知去見他,說:「這些神不能救它的民脫離你的手,你為何尋求它呢?」
And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Amaziah and he sent to him a prophet and he said to him why? have you sought [the] gods of the people which not they delivered own people their from hand your.
16 先知與王說話的時候,王對他說:「誰立你作王的謀士呢?你住口吧!為何找打呢?」先知就止住了,又說:「你行這事,不聽從我的勸戒,我知道上帝定意要滅你。」
And it was - when was speaking he to him and he said to him ¿ into a counselor of the king have we made you cease yourself why? will people strike down you and he ceased the prophet and he said I know that he has planned God to destroy you for you have done this and not you have listened to counsel my.
17 猶大王亞瑪謝與群臣商議,就差遣使者去見耶戶的孫子、約哈斯的兒子、以色列王約阿施,說:「你來,我們二人相見於戰場。」
And he took counsel Amaziah [the] king of Judah and he sent to Joash [the] son of Jehoahaz [the] son of Jehu [the] king of Israel saying (come! *Q(K)*) let us look at one another faces.
18 以色列王約阿施差遣使者去見猶大王亞瑪謝,說:「黎巴嫩的蒺藜差遣使者去見黎巴嫩的香柏樹,說:『將你的女兒給我兒子為妻。』後來黎巴嫩有一個野獸經過,把蒺藜踐踏了。
And he sent Joash [the] king of Israel to Amaziah [the] king of Judah saying the thornbush which [was] in Lebanon it sent to the cedar which [was] in Lebanon saying give! daughter your to son my to a wife and it passed by [the] animal of the field which [was] in Lebanon and it trampled the thornbush.
19 你說:『看哪,我打敗了以東人』,你就心高氣傲,以致矜誇。你在家裏安居就罷了,為何要惹禍使自己和猶大國一同敗亡呢?」
You have said here! you have struck down Edom and it has lifted you heart your to become heavy now remain! in house your why? will you engage in strife with harm and you will fall you and Judah with you.
20 亞瑪謝卻不肯聽從。這是出乎上帝,好將他們交在敵人手裏,因為他們尋求以東的神。
And not he listened Amaziah for [was] from God it so as to give them in a hand for they had sought [the] gods of Edom.
21 於是以色列王約阿施上來,在猶大的伯‧示麥與猶大王亞瑪謝相見於戰場。
And he went up Joash [the] king of Israel and they looked at one another faces he and Amaziah [the] king of Judah at Beth Shemesh which [belonged] to Judah.
And it was defeated Judah before Israel and they fled each to tents his.
23 以色列王約阿施在伯‧示麥擒住約哈斯的孫子、約阿施的兒子、猶大王亞瑪謝,將他帶到耶路撒冷,又拆毀耶路撒冷的城牆,從以法蓮門直到角門,共四百肘;
And Amaziah [the] king of Judah [the] son of Joash [the] son of Jehoahaz he caught Joash [the] king of Israel at Beth Shemesh and he brought him Jerusalem and he made a breach in [the] wall of Jerusalem from [the] gate of Ephraim to [the] gate of the Corner four hundred cubit[s].
24 又將俄別‧以東所看守上帝殿裏的一切金銀和器皿,與王宮裏的財寶都拿了去,並帶人去為質,就回撒馬利亞去了。
And all the gold and the silver and all the articles which were found in [the] house of God with Obed-Edom and [the] treasures of [the] house of the king and [the] sons of the pledges and he returned Samaria.
25 以色列王約哈斯的兒子約阿施死後,猶大王約阿施的兒子亞瑪謝又活了十五年。
And he lived Amaziah [the] son of Joash [the] king of Judah after [the] death of Joash [the] son of Jehoahaz [the] king of Israel fif-teen year[s].
26 亞瑪謝其餘的事,自始至終不都寫在猶大和以色列諸王記上嗎?
And [the] rest of [the] matters of Amaziah former and latter ¿ not there! [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] kings of Judah and Israel.
27 自從亞瑪謝離棄耶和華之後,在耶路撒冷有人背叛他,他就逃到拉吉;叛黨卻打發人到拉吉,將他殺了。
And from [the] time when he turned aside Amaziah from after Yahweh and people conspired on him a conspiracy in Jerusalem and he fled Lachish towards and they sent after him Lachish towards and they put to death him there.
28 人就用馬將他的屍首馱回,葬在猶大京城他列祖的墳地裏。
And they carried him on horses and they buried him with ancestors his in [the] city of Judah.
