< 2 Chronicles 24 >
1 Ioash was seuen yere olde, when he began to reigne, and he reigned fourty yeere in Ierusalem: and his mothers name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
septem annorum erat Ioas cum regnare coepisset et quadraginta annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Sebia de Bersabee
2 And Ioash did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, all the dayes of Iehoiada the Priest.
fecitque quod bonum est coram Domino cunctis diebus Ioiadae sacerdotis
3 And Iehoiada tooke him two wiues, and he begate sonnes and daughters.
accepit autem ei Ioiadae uxores duas e quibus genuit filios et filias
4 And afterward it came into Ioash mind, to renew the house of the Lord.
post quae placuit Ioas ut instauraret domum Domini
5 And he assembled the Priests and the Leuites, and said to them, Goe out vnto the cities of Iudah, and gather of all Israel money to repaire the house of your God, from yeere to yeere, and haste the thing: but the Leuites hasted not.
congregavitque sacerdotes et Levitas et dixit eis egredimini ad civitates Iuda et colligite de universo Israhel pecuniam ad sarta tecta templi Dei vestri per singulos annos festinatoque hoc facite porro Levitae egere neglegentius
6 Therefore the King called Iehoiada, the chiefe, and said vnto him, Why hast thou not required of the Leuites to bring in out of Iudah and Ierusalem the taxe of Moses the seruant of the Lord, and of the Congregation of Israel, for the Tabernacle of the testimonie?
vocavitque rex Ioiadae principem et dixit ei quare non tibi fuit curae ut cogeres Levitas inferre de Iuda et de Hierusalem pecuniam quae constituta est a Mose servo Domini ut inferret eam omnis multitudo Israhel in tabernaculum testimonii
7 For wicked Athaliah, and her children brake vp the house of God: and all the things that were dedicate for the house of the Lord, did they bestowe vpon Baalim.
Otholia enim impiissima et filii eius destruxerunt domum Domini et de universis quae sanctificata fuerant templo Domini ornaverunt fanum Baalim
8 Therefore the King commanded, and they made a chest, and set it at the gate of the house of the Lord without.
praecepit ergo rex et fecerunt arcam posueruntque eam iuxta portam domus Domini forinsecus
9 And they made proclamation thorow Iudah and Ierusalem, to bring vnto the Lord the taxe of Moses the seruant of God, layde vpon Israel in the wildernesse.
et praedicatum est in Iuda et Hierusalem ut deferrent singuli pretium Domino quod constituit Moses servus Dei super omnem Israhel in deserto
10 And all the princes and all the people reioyced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, vntill they had finished.
laetatique sunt cuncti principes et omnis populus et ingressi contulerunt in arcam Domini atque miserunt ita ut impleretur
11 And when it was time, they brought the chest vnto the Kings officer by the hand of the Leuites: and when they saw that there was much siluer, then the Kings Scribe (and one appoynted by the hie Priest) came and emptied the chest, and tooke it, and caried it to his place againe: thus they did day by day, and gathered siluer in abundance.
cumque tempus esset ut deferrent arcam coram rege per manus Levitarum videbant enim multam pecuniam ingrediebatur scriba regis et quem primus sacerdos constituerat effundebantque pecuniam quae erat in arca porro arcam reportabant ad locum suum sicque faciebant per singulos dies et congregata est infinita pecunia
12 And the King and Iehoiada gaue it to such as did the labour and worke in the house of the Lord, and hyred masons and carpenters to repayre the house of the Lord: they gaue it also to workers of yron and brasse, to repayre the house of the Lord.
quam dederunt rex et Ioiada his qui praeerant operibus domus Domini at illi conducebant ex ea caesores lapidum et artifices operum singulorum ut instaurarent domum Domini fabros quoque ferri et aeris ut quod cadere coeperat fulciretur
13 So the workemen wrought, and the worke amended through their hands: and they restored the house of God to his state, and strengthened it.
egeruntque hii qui operabantur industrie et obducebatur parietum cicatrix per manus eorum ac suscitaverunt domum Domini in statum pristinum et firme eam stare fecerunt
14 And when they had finished it, they brought the rest of the siluer before the King and Iehoiada, and he made thereof vessels for the house of the Lord, euen vessels to minister, both morters and incense cuppes, and vessels of golde, and of siluer: and they offred burnt offrings in the house of the Lord continually all the dayes of Iehoiada.
cumque conplessent omnia opera detulerunt coram rege et Ioiadae reliquam partem pecuniae de qua facta sunt vasa templi in ministerium et ad holocausta fialae quoque et cetera vasa aurea et argentea et offerebantur holocausta in domo Domini iugiter cunctis diebus Ioiadae
15 But Iehoiada waxed olde, and was ful of dayes and dyed. An hundreth and thirtie yeere olde was he when he dyed.
senuit autem Ioiadae plenus dierum et mortuus est cum centum triginta esset annorum
16 And they buried him in the citie of Dauid with the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
sepelieruntque eum in civitate David cum regibus eo quod fecisset bonum cum Israhel et cum domo eius
17 And after the death of Iehoiada, came the princes of Iudah, and did reuerence to the King, and the King hearkened vnto them.
postquam autem obiit Ioiada ingressi sunt principes Iuda et adoraverunt regem qui delinitus obsequiis eorum adquievit eis
18 And they left the house of the Lord God of their fathers, and serued groues and idoles: and wrath came vpon Iudah and Ierusalem, because of this their trespasse.
et dereliquerunt templum Domini Dei patrum suorum servieruntque lucis et sculptilibus et facta est ira contra Iudam et Hierusalem propter hoc peccatum
19 And God sent Prophets amog the, to bring them againe vnto the Lord: and they made protestation among them, but they would not heare.
mittebatque eis prophetas ut reverterentur ad Dominum quos protestantes illi audire nolebant
20 And the Spirit of God came vpon Zechariah the sonne of Iehoiada the Priest, which stoode aboue the people, and sayde vnto them, Thus sayth God, Why transgresse ye the commandements of the Lord? surely ye shall not prosper: because ye haue forsaken the Lord, he also hath forsaken you.
spiritus itaque Dei induit Zacchariam filium Ioiadae sacerdotem et stetit in conspectu populi et dixit eis haec dicit Dominus quare transgredimini praeceptum Domini quod vobis non proderit et dereliquistis Dominum ut derelinqueret vos
21 Then they conspired against him and stoned him with stones at the commandement of the King, in the court of the house of the Lord.
qui congregati adversus eum miserunt lapides iuxta regis imperium in atrio domus Domini
22 Thus Ioash the King remembred not the kindnesse which Iehoiada his father had done to him, but slewe his sonne. And when he dyed, he sayd, The Lord looke vpon it, and require it.
et non est recordatus Ioas rex misericordiae quam fecerat Ioiadae pater illius secum sed interfecit filium eius qui cum moreretur ait videat Dominus et requirat
23 And when the yeere was out, the host of Aram came vp against him, and they came against Iudah and Ierusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoyle of them vnto the King of Damascus.
cumque evolutus esset annus ascendit contra eum exercitus Syriae venitque in Iudam et Hierusalem et interfecit cunctos principes populi atque universam praedam miserunt regi Damascum
24 Though the armie of Aram came with a small company of men, yet the Lord deliuered a very great armie into their hand, because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers: and they gaue sentence against Ioash.
et certe cum permodicus venisset numerus Syrorum tradidit Dominus manibus eorum infinitam multitudinem eo quod reliquissent Dominum Deum patrum suorum in Ioas quoque ignominiosa exercuere iudicia
25 And when they were departed from him, (for they left him in great diseases) his owne seruants conspired against him for the blood of the children of Iehoiada the Priest, and slewe him on his bed, and he dyed, and they buryed him in the citie of Dauid: but they buryed him not in the sepulchres of the Kings.
et abeuntes dimiserunt eum in languoribus magnis surrexerunt autem contra eum servi sui in ultionem sanguinis filii Ioiadae sacerdotis et occiderunt eum in lectulo suo et mortuus est sepelieruntque eum in civitate David sed non in sepulchris regum
26 And these are they that conspired against him, Zabad the sonne of Shimrath an Ammonitesse, and Iehozabad the sonne of Shimrith a Moabitesse.
insidiati vero sunt ei Zabath filius Semath Ammanitidis et Iozabath filius Semarith Moabitidis
27 But his sonnes, and the summe of the taxe gathered by him, and the foundation of the house of God, behold, they are written in the storie of the booke of the Kings. And Amaziah his sonne reigned in his steade.
porro filii eius ac summa pecuniae quae adunata fuerat sub eo et instauratio domus Dei scripta sunt diligentius in libro regum regnavitque Amasias filius eius pro eo
