< 2 Chronicles 28 >

1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. And he did not what was right in the sight of Jehovah, like David his father,
Viginti annorum erat Achaz cum regnare cœpisset: et sedecim annis regnavit in Ierusalem: non fecit rectum in conspectu Domini sicut David pater eius:
2 but walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and even made molten images for the Baals;
sed ambulavit in viis regum Israel, insuper et statuas fudit Baalim.
3 and he burned incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burned his sons in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that Jehovah had dispossessed from before the children of Israel.
Ipse est, qui adolevit incensum in Valle Benennom, et lustravit filios suos in igne iuxta ritum gentium, quas interfecit Dominus in adventu filiorum Israel.
4 And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
Sacrificabat quoque, et thymiama succendebat in excelsis, et in collibus, et sub omni ligno frondoso.
5 Therefore Jehovah his God gave him into the hand of the king of Syria; and they smote him, and carried away a great multitude of them captives, and brought them to Damascus. And he was also given into the hand of the king of Israel, who smote him with a great slaughter.
Tradiditque eum Dominus Deus eius in manu regis Syriæ, qui percussit eum, magnamque prædam cepit de eius imperio, et adduxit in Damascum: manibus quoque regis Israel traditus est, et percussus plaga grandi.
6 And Pekah the son of Remaliah slew in Judah a hundred and twenty thousand in one day, all valiant men, because they had forsaken Jehovah the God of their fathers.
Occiditque Phacee, filius Romeliæ, de Iuda centum viginti millia in die uno, omnes viros bellatores: eo quod reliquissent Dominum Deum patrum suorum.
7 And Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, slew Maaseiah the king's son, and Azrikam the governor of the house, and Elkanah the second to the king.
Eodem tempore occidit Zechri, vir potens ex Ephraim, Maasiam filium regis, et Ezricam ducem domus eius, Elcanam quoque secundum a rege.
8 And the children of Israel carried away captive of their brethren two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and took away also much spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.
Ceperuntque filii Israel de fratribus suis ducenta millia mulierum, puerorum, et puellarum, et infinitam prædam: pertuleruntque eam in Samariam.
9 But a prophet of Jehovah was there, whose name was Oded; and he went out before the host that came to Samaria, and said unto them, Behold, because Jehovah the God of your fathers was wroth with Judah, he gave them into your hand, and ye have slain them in a rage that reaches up to heaven.
Ea tempestate erat ibi propheta Domini, nomine Oded: qui egressus obviam exercitui venienti in Samariam, dixit eis: Ecce iratus Dominus Deus patrum vestrorum contra Iuda, tradidit eos in manibus vestris, et occidistis eos atrociter, ita ut ad cælum pertingeret vestra crudelitas.
10 And now ye think to subjugate the children of Judah and Jerusalem as your bondmen and bondwomen. Are there not with you, even with you, trespasses against Jehovah your God?
Insuper filios Iuda, et Ierusalem vultis vobis subiicere in servos et ancillas, quod nequaquam facto opus est: peccastis enim super hoc Domino Deo vestro.
11 And now hear me, and send back the captives again, whom ye have taken captive of your brethren; for the fierce wrath of Jehovah is upon you.
Sed audite consilium meum, et reducite captivos, quos adduxistis de fratribus vestris, quia magnus furor Domini imminet vobis.
12 And certain of the heads of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, and Hezekiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against them that came from the war,
Steterunt itaque viri de principibus filiorum Ephraim, Azarias filius Iohanam, Barachias filius Mosollamoth, Ezechias filius Sellum, et Amasa filius Adali, contra eos, qui veniebant de prælio,
13 and said to them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither; because, for our guilt before Jehovah, ye think to increase our sins and our trespasses: for our trespass is great, and fierce wrath is upon Israel.
et dixerunt eis: Non introducetis huc captivos, ne peccemus Domino. Quare vultis adiicere super peccata nostra, et vetera cumulare delicta? Grande quippe peccatum est, et ira furoris Domini imminet super Israel.
14 Then the armed men left the captives and the spoil before the princes and all the congregation.
Dimiseruntque viri bellatores prædam, et universa quæ ceperant coram principibus, et omni multitudine.
15 And the men that have been expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them on asses, and brought them to Jericho the city of palm-trees, to their brethren. And they returned to Samaria.
Steteruntque viri, quos supra memoravimus, et apprehendentes captivos, omnesque qui nudi erant, vestierunt de spoliis: cumque vestissent eos, et calceassent, et refecissent cibo ac potu, unxissentque propter laborem, et adhibuissent eis curam: quicumque ambulare non poterant, et erant imbecillo corpore, imposuerunt eos iumentis, et adduxerunt Iericho Civitatem Palmarum ad fratres eorum, ipsique reversi sunt in Samariam.
16 At that time king Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria to help him.
Tempore illo misit rex Achaz ad regem Assyriorum, postulans auxilium.
17 And again the Edomites came and smote Judah, and carried away captives.
Veneruntque Idumæi, et percusserunt multos ex Iuda, et ceperunt prædam magnam.
18 And the Philistines invaded the cities of the lowland, and of the south of Judah, and took Beth-shemesh, and Ajalon, and Gederoth, and Socho and its dependent villages, and Timnah and its dependent villages, and Guimzo and its dependent villages; and they dwelt there.
Philisthiim quoque diffusi sunt per urbes campestres, et ad Meridiem Iuda: ceperuntque Bethsames, et Aialon, et Gaderoth, Socho quoque, et Thamnan, et Gamzo, cum viculis suis, et habitaverunt in eis.
19 For Jehovah humbled Judah because of Ahaz king of Israel, for he had made Judah lawless, and transgressed much against Jehovah.
Humiliaverat enim Dominus Iudam propter Achaz regem Iuda, eo quod nudasset eum auxilio, et contemptui habuisset Dominum.
20 And Tilgath-Pilneser king of Assyria came to him, and troubled him, and did not support him.
Adduxitque contra eum Thelgathphalnasar regem Assyriorum, qui et afflixit eum, et nullo resistente vastavit.
21 For Ahaz stripped the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king and of the princes, and gave to the king of Assyria; but he was of no help to him.
Igitur Achaz spoliata domo Domini, et domo regum, ac principum, dedit regi Assyriorum munera, et tamen nihil ei profuit.
22 And in the time of his trouble he transgressed yet more against Jehovah, this king Ahaz.
Insuper et tempore angustiæ suæ auxit contemptum in Dominum, ipse per se rex Achaz,
23 And he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus, which had smitten him; and he said, Since the gods of the kings of Syria help them, I will sacrifice to them, that they may help me. But they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel.
immolavit diis Damasci victimas percussoribus suis, et dixit: dii regum Syriæ auxiliantur eis, quos ego placabo hostiis, et aderunt mihi, cum econtrario ipsi fuerint ruinæ ei, et universo Israel.
24 And Ahaz gathered the vessels of the house of God, and cut in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and closed the doors of the house of Jehovah, and he made for himself altars in every corner of Jerusalem.
Direptis itaque Achaz omnibus vasis domus Dei, atque confractis, clausit ianuas templi Dei, et fecit sibi altaria in universis angulis Ierusalem.
25 And in every several city of Judah he made high places to burn incense to other gods, and provoked to anger Jehovah the God of his fathers.
In omnibus quoque urbibus Iuda extruxit aras ad cremandum thus, atque ad iracundiam provocavit Dominum Deum patrum suorum.
26 And the rest of his acts, and all his ways, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Reliqua autem sermonum eius, et omnium operum suorum priorum et novissimorum scripta sunt in Libro regum Iuda et Israel.
27 And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, in Jerusalem; but they brought him not into the sepulchres of the kings of Israel. And Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.
Dormivitque Achaz cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in civitate Ierusalem: neque enim receperunt eum in sepulchra regum Israel. Regnavitque Ezechias filius eius pro eo.
