2 Kings 12
1 In the seventh year of Jehu, Joash became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem forty years. His mother’s name was Zibiah; she was from Beersheba.
anno septimo Hieu regnavit Ioas quadraginta annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Sebia de Bersabee
2 And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days he was instructed by Jehoiada the priest.
fecitque Ioas rectum coram Domino cunctis diebus quibus docuit eum Ioiada sacerdos
3 Nevertheless, the high places were not removed; the people continued sacrificing and burning incense there.
verumtamen excelsa non abstulit adhuc populus immolabat et adolebat in excelsis incensum
4 Then Joash said to the priests, “Collect all the money brought as sacred gifts into the house of the LORD—the census money, the money from vows, and the money brought voluntarily into the house of the LORD.
dixitque Ioas ad sacerdotes omnem pecuniam sanctorum quae inlata fuerit in templum Domini a praetereuntibus quae offertur pro pretio animae et quam sponte et arbitrio cordis sui inferunt in templum Domini
5 Let every priest receive it from his constituency, and let it be used to repair any damage found in the temple.”
accipiant illam sacerdotes iuxta ordinem suum et instaurent sarta tecta domus si quid necessarium viderint instauratione
6 By the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, however, the priests had not yet repaired the damage to the temple.
igitur usque ad vicesimum tertium annum regis Ioas non instauraverunt sacerdotes sarta tecta templi
7 So King Joash called Jehoiada and the other priests and said, “Why have you not repaired the damage to the temple? Now, therefore, take no more money from your constituency, but hand it over for the repair of the temple.”
vocavitque rex Ioas Ioiada pontificem et sacerdotes dicens eis quare sarta tecta non instaurastis templi nolite ergo amplius accipere pecuniam iuxta ordinem vestrum sed ad instaurationem templi reddite eam
8 So the priests agreed that they would not receive money from the people and that they would not repair the temple themselves.
prohibitique sunt sacerdotes ultra accipere pecuniam a populo et instaurare sarta tecta domus
9 Then Jehoiada the priest took a chest, bored a hole in its lid, and set it beside the altar on the right side as one enters the house of the LORD. There the priests who guarded the threshold put all the money brought into the house of the LORD.
et tulit Ioiada pontifex gazofilacium unum aperuitque foramen desuper et posuit illud iuxta altare ad dexteram ingredientium domum Domini mittebantque in eo sacerdotes qui custodiebant ostia omnem pecuniam quae deferebatur ad templum Domini
10 Whenever they saw that there was a large amount of money in the chest, the royal scribe and the high priest would go up, count the money brought into the house of the LORD, and tie it up in bags.
cumque viderent nimiam pecuniam esse in gazofilacio ascendebat scriba regis et pontifex effundebantque et numerabant pecuniam quae inveniebatur in domo Domini
11 Then they would put the counted money into the hands of those who supervised the work on the house of the LORD, who in turn would pay those doing the work—the carpenters, builders,
et dabant eam iuxta numerum atque mensuram in manu eorum qui praeerant cementariis domus Domini qui inpendebant eam in fabris lignorum et in cementariis his qui operabantur in domo Domini
12 masons, and stonecutters. They also purchased timber and dressed stone to repair the damage to the house of the LORD, and they paid the other expenses of the temple repairs.
et sarta tecta faciebant et in his qui caedebant saxa et ut emerent ligna et lapides qui excidebantur ita ut impleretur instauratio domus Domini in universis quae indigebant expensa ad muniendam domum
13 However, the money brought into the house of the LORD was not used for making silver basins, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, trumpets, or any articles of gold or silver for the house of the LORD.
verumtamen non fiebant ex eadem pecunia hydriae templi Domini et fuscinulae et turibula et tubae omne vas aureum et argenteum de pecunia quae inferebatur in templum Domini
14 Instead, it was paid to those doing the work, and with it they repaired the house of the LORD.
his enim qui faciebant opus dabatur ut instauraretur templum Domini
15 No accounting was required from the men who received the money to pay the workmen, because they acted with integrity.
et non fiebat ratio his hominibus qui accipiebant pecuniam ut distribuerent eam artificibus sed in fide tractabant eam
16 The money from the guilt offerings and sin offerings was not brought into the house of the LORD; it belonged to the priests.
pecuniam vero pro delicto et pecuniam pro peccatis non inferebant in templum Domini quia sacerdotum erat
17 At that time Hazael king of Aram marched up and fought against Gath and captured it. Then he decided to attack Jerusalem.
tunc ascendit Azahel rex Syriae et pugnabat contra Geth cepitque eam et direxit faciem suam ut ascenderet in Hierusalem
18 So King Joash of Judah took all the sacred objects dedicated by his fathers—Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah, the kings of Judah—along with his own consecrated items and all the gold found in the treasuries of the house of the LORD and the royal palace, and he sent them to Hazael king of Aram. So Hazael withdrew from Jerusalem.
quam ob rem tulit Ioas rex Iuda omnia sanctificata quae consecraverant Iosaphat et Ioram et Ahazia patres eius reges Iuda et quae ipse obtulerat et universum argentum quod inveniri potuit in thesauris templi Domini et in palatio regis misitque Azaheli regi Syriae et recessit ab Hierusalem
19 As for the rest of the acts of Joash, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
reliqua autem sermonum Ioas et universa quae fecit nonne haec scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Iuda
20 And the servants of Joash rose up and formed a conspiracy and killed him at Beth-millo, on the road down to Silla.
surrexerunt autem servi eius et coniuraverunt inter se percusseruntque Ioas in domo Mello in descensu Sela
21 His servants Jozabad son of Shimeath and Jehozabad son of Shomer struck him down, and he died. And they buried him with his fathers in the City of David, and his son Amaziah reigned in his place.
Iozachar namque filius Semath et Iozabad filius Somer servi eius percusserunt eum et mortuus est et sepelierunt eum cum patribus suis in civitate David regnavitque Amasias filius eius pro eo
