2 Chronicles 25
1 Amaziah was fiue and twentie yere old when he began to reigne, and he reigned nine and twentie yeere in Ierusalem: and his mothers name was Iehoaddan, of Ierusalem.
viginti quinque annorum erat Amasias cum regnare coepisset et viginti novem annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Ioaden de Hierusalem
2 And he did vprightly in the eyes of the Lord, but not with a perfite heart.
fecitque bonum in conspectu Domini verumtamen non in corde perfecto
3 And when the kingdome was established vnto him, he slewe his seruants, that had slaine the King his father.
cumque roboratum sibi videret imperium iugulavit servos qui occiderant regem patrem suum
4 But he slewe not their children, but did as it is written in the Lawe, and in the booke of Moses, where the Lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not dye for the children, neyther shall the children die for the fathers, but euery man shall dye for his owne sinne.
sed filios eorum non interfecit sicut scriptum est in libro legis Mosi ubi praecepit Dominus dicens non occidentur patres pro filiis neque filii pro patribus suis sed unusquisque in suo peccato morietur
5 And Amaziah assembled Iudah, and made them captaines ouer thousandes, and captaines ouer hundreths, according to the houses of their fathers, thorowout all Iudah and Beniamin: and he nombred them from twentie yeere olde and aboue, and founde among them three hundreth thousand chosen men, to goe foorth to the warre, and to handle speare and shield.
congregavit igitur Amasias Iudam et constituit eos per familias tribunosque et centuriones in universo Iuda et Beniamin et recensuit a viginti annis sursum invenitque triginta milia iuvenum qui egrederentur ad pugnam et tenerent hastam et clypeum
6 He hyred also an hundreth thousand valiant men out of Israel for an hundreth talents of siluer.
mercede quoque conduxit de Israhel centum milia robustorum centum talentis argenti
7 But a man of God came to him, saying, O King, let not the armie of Israel goe with thee: for the Lord is not with Israel, neither with all the house of Ephraim.
venit autem homo Dei ad illum et ait o rex ne egrediatur tecum exercitus Israhel non est enim Dominus cum Israhel et cunctis filiis Ephraim
8 If not, goe thou on, doe it, make thy selfe strong to the battel, but God shall make thee fall before the enemie: for God hath power to helpe, and to cast downe.
quod si putas in robore exercitus bella consistere superari te faciet Deus ab hostibus Dei quippe est et adiuvare et in fugam vertere
9 And Amaziah sayde to the man of God, What shall we doe then for the hundreth talents, which I haue giuen to the hoste of Israel? Then the man of God answered, The Lord is able to giue thee more then this.
dixitque Amasias ad hominem Dei quid ergo fiet de centum talentis quae dedi militibus Israhel et respondit ei homo Dei habet Dominus unde tibi dare possit multo his plura
10 So Amaziah separated them, to wit, the armie that was come to him out of Ephraim, to returne to their place: wherefore their wrath was kindled greatly against Iudah, and they returned to their places with great anger.
separavit itaque Amasias exercitum qui venerat ad eum ex Ephraim ut reverteretur in locum suum at illi contra Iudam vehementer irati reversi sunt in regionem suam
11 Then Amaziah was encouraged, and led forth his people, and went to the salt valley, and smote of the children of Seir, ten thousand.
porro Amasias confidenter eduxit populum suum et abiit in vallem Salinarum percussitque filios Seir decem milia
12 And other ten thousand did the children of Iudah take aliue, and caryed them to the top of a rocke, and cast them downe from the top of the rocke, and they all burst to pieces.
et alia decem milia virorum ceperunt filii Iuda et adduxerunt ad praeruptum cuiusdam petrae praecipitaveruntque eos de summo in praeceps qui universi crepuerunt
13 But the men of the armie, which Amaziah sent away, that they should not goe with his people to battell, fell vpon the cities of Iudah from Samaria vnto Beth-horon, and smote three thousand of them, and tooke much spoyle.
at ille exercitus quem remiserat Amasias ne secum iret ad proelium diffusus est in civitatibus Iuda a Samaria usque Bethoron et interfectis tribus milibus diripuit praedam magnam
14 Now after that Amaziah was come from the slaughter of the Edomites, he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them vp to be his gods, and worshipped them, and burned incense vnto them.
Amasias vero post caedem Idumeorum et adlatos deos filiorum Seir statuit illos in deos sibi et adorabat eos et illis adolebat incensum
15 Wherefore the Lord was wroth with Amaziah, and sent vnto him a Prophet, which sayd vnto him, Why hast thou sought the gods of the people, which were not able to deliuer their owne people out of thine hand?
quam ob rem iratus Dominus contra Amasiam misit ad illum prophetam qui diceret ei cur adorasti deos qui non liberaverunt populum suum de manu tua
16 And as he talked with him, he said vnto him, Haue they made thee the Kings counseler? cease thou: why should they smite thee? And the Prophet ceased, but said, I knowe that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not obeyed my counsell.
cumque haec ille loqueretur respondit ei num consiliarius regis es quiesce ne interficiam te discedensque propheta scio inquit quod cogitaverit Dominus occidere te qui et fecisti hoc malum et insuper non adquievisti consilio meo
17 Then Amaziah King of Iudah tooke counsell, and sent to Ioash the sonne of Iehoahaz, the sonne of Iehu King of Israel, saying, Come, let vs see one another in the face.
igitur Amasias rex Iuda inito pessimo consilio misit ad Ioas filium Ioachaz filii Hieu regem Israhel dicens veni videamus nos mutuo
18 But Ioash King of Israel sent to Amaziah King of Iudah, saying, The thistle that is in Lebanon, sent to the cedar that is in Lebanon, saying, Giue thy daughter to my sonne to wife: and the wilde beast that was in Lebanon went and trode downe the thistle.
at ille remisit nuntium dicens carduus qui est in Libano misit ad cedrum Libani dicens da filiam tuam filio meo uxorem et ecce bestiae quae erant in silva Libani transierunt et conculcaverunt carduum
19 Thou thinkest: lo, thou hast smitten Edom, and thine heart lifteth thee vp to bragge: abide now at home: why doest thou prouoke to thine hurt, that thou shouldest fall, and Iudah with thee?
dixisti percussi Edom et idcirco erigitur cor tuum in superbiam sede in domo tua cur malum adversum te provocas ut cadas et tu et Iudas tecum
20 But Amaziah would not heare: for it was of God, that he might deliuer them into his had, because they had sought the gods of Edom.
noluit audire Amasias eo quod Domini esset voluntas ut traderetur in manibus hostium propter deos Edom
21 So Ioash the King of Israel went vp: and he, and Amaziah King of Iudah saw one another in the face at Bethshemesh, which is in Iudah.
ascendit igitur Ioas rex Israhel et mutuos sibi praebuere conspectus Amasias autem rex Iuda erat in Bethsames Iudae
22 And Iudah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fled euery man to his tents.
corruitque Iudas coram Israhel et fugit in tabernacula sua
23 But Ioash the King of Israel tooke Amaziah King of Iudah, the sonne of Ioash, the sonne of Iehoahaz in Bethshemesh, and brought him to Ierusalem, and brake downe the wall of Ierusalem, from the gate of Ephraim vnto the corner gate, foure hundreth cubites.
porro Amasiam regem Iuda filium Ioas filii Ioachaz cepit Ioas rex Israhel in Bethsames et adduxit in Hierusalem destruxitque murum eius a porta Ephraim usque ad portam Anguli quadringentis cubitis
24 And he tooke all the gold and the siluer, and all the vessels that were found in the house of God with Obed Edom, and in the treasures of the Kings house, and the children that were in hostage, and returned to Samaria.
omne quoque aurum et argentum et universa vasa quae reppererat in domo Dei et apud Obededom in thesauris etiam domus regiae necnon et filios obsidum reduxit Samariam
25 And Amaziah the sonne of Ioash King of Iudah liued after the death of Ioash sonne of Iehoahaz King of Israel, fifteene yeere.
vixit autem Amasias filius Ioas rex Iuda postquam mortuus est Ioas filius Ioachaz rex Israhel quindecim annis
26 Concerning the rest of the actes of Amaziah first and last, are they not written in the booke of the Kings of Iudah and Israel?
reliqua vero sermonum Amasiae priorum et novissimorum scripta sunt in libro regum Iuda et Israhel
27 Nowe after the time that Amaziah did turne away from ye Lord, they wrought treason against him in Ierusalem: and when he was fled to Lachish, they sent to Lachish after him, and slewe him there.
qui postquam recessit a Domino tetenderunt ei insidias in Hierusalem cumque fugisset Lachis miserunt et interfecerunt eum ibi
28 And they brought him vpon horses, and buried him with his fathers in the citie of Iudah.
reportantesque super equos sepelierunt eum cum patribus suis in civitate David
