2 Kings 12
1 In the seventh year of Jehu Jehoash began to reign; and forty years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name [was] Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
Anno septimo Iehu regnavit Ioas: et quadraginta annis regnavit in Ierusalem. nomen matris eius Sebia de Bersabee.
2 And Jehoash did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD all his days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him.
Fecitque Ioas rectum coram Domino cunctis diebus, quibus docuit eum Ioiada sacerdos.
3 But the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
Verumtamen excelsa non abstulit: adhuc enim populus immolabat, et adolebat in excelsis incensum.
4 And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the dedicated things that is brought into the house of the LORD, [even] the money of every one that passeth [the account], the money that every man is set at, [and] all the money that cometh into any man’s heart to bring into the house of the LORD,
Dixitque Ioas ad sacerdotes: Omnem pecuniam sanctorum, quæ illata fuerit in templum Domini a prætereuntibus, quæ offertur pro pretio animæ, et quam sponte et arbitrio cordis sui inferunt in templum Domini:
5 Let the priests take [it] to them, every man of his acquaintance: and let them repair the breaches of the house, wheresoever any breach shall be found.
accipiant illam sacerdotes iuxta ordinem suum, et instaurent sartatecta domus, siquid necessarium viderint instauratione.
6 But it was [so, that] in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.
Igitur usque ad vigesimum tertium annum regis Ioas, non instauraverunt sacerdotes sartatecta templi.
7 Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and the [other] priests, and said unto them, Why repair ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore receive no [more] money of your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house.
Vocavitque rex Ioas Ioiadam pontificem et sacerdotes, dicens eis: Quare sartatecta non instauratis templi? nolite ergo amplius accipere pecuniam iuxta ordinem vestrum, sed ad instaurationem templi reddite eam.
8 And the priests consented to receive no [more] money of the people, neither to repair the breaches of the house.
Prohibitique sunt sacerdotes ultra accipere pecuniam a populo, et instaurare sartatecta domus.
9 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of the LORD: and the priests that kept the door put therein all the money [that was] brought into the house of the LORD.
Et tulit Ioiada pontifex gazophylacium unum, aperuitque foramen desuper, et posuit illud iuxta altare ad dexteram ingredientium domum Domini, mittebantque in eo sacerdotes, qui custodiebant ostia, omnem pecuniam, quæ deferebatur ad templum Domini.
10 And it was [so], when they saw that [there was] much money in the chest, that the king’s scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags, and told the money that was found in the house of the LORD.
Cumque viderent nimiam pecuniam esse in gazophylacio, ascendebat scriba regis, et pontifex, effundebantque et numerabant pecuniam, quæ inveniebatur in domo Domini:
11 And they gave the money, being told, into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of the LORD: and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders, that wrought upon the house of the LORD,
et dabant eam iuxta numerum atque mensuram in manu eorum, qui præerant cæmentariis domus Domini: qui impendebant eam in fabris lignorum, et in cæmentariis iis, qui operabantur in domo Domini,
12 And to masons, and hewers of stone, and to buy timber and hewed stone to repair the breaches of the house of the LORD, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair [it].
et sartatecta faciebant: et in iis, qui cædebant saxa, et ut emerent ligna, et lapides, qui excidebantur, ita ut impleretur instauratio domus Domini in universis, quæ indigebant expensa ad muniendam domum.
13 Howbeit there were not made for the house of the LORD bowls of silver, snuffers, basons, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money [that was] brought into the house of the LORD:
Verumtamen non fiebant ex eadem pecunia hydriæ templi Domini, et fuscinulæ, et thuribula, et tubæ, et omne vas aureum et argenteum de pecunia, quæ inferebatur in templum Domini.
14 But they gave that to the workmen, and repaired therewith the house of the LORD.
iis enim, qui faciebant opus, dabatur ut instauraretur templum Domini:
15 Moreover they reckoned not with the men, into whose hand they delivered the money to be bestowed on workmen: for they dealt faithfully.
et non fiebat ratio iis hominibus, qui accipiebant pecuniam ut distribuerent eam artificibus, sed in fide tractabant eam.
16 The trespass money and sin money was not brought into the house of the LORD: it was the priests’.
Pecuniam vero pro delicto, et pecuniam pro peccatis non inferebant in templum Domini, quia sacerdotum erat.
17 Then Hazael king of Syria went up, and fought against Gath, and took it: and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.
Tunc ascendit Hazael rex Syriæ, et pugnabat contra Geth, cepitque eam: et direxit faciem suam ut ascenderet in Ierusalem.
18 And Jehoash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things, and all the gold [that was] found in the treasures of the house of the LORD, and in the king’s house, and sent [it] to Hazael king of Syria: and he went away from Jerusalem.
Quam ob rem tulit Ioas rex Iuda omnia sanctificata, quæ consecraverant Iosaphat, et Ioram, et Ochozias patres eius reges Iuda, et quæ ipse obtulerat: et universum argentum, quod inveniri potuit in thesauris templi Domini, et in palatio regis: misitque Hazaeli regi Syriæ, et recessit ab Ierusalem.
19 And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Reliqua autem sermonum Ioas, et universa quæ fecit, nonne hæc scripta sunt in Libro verborum dierum regum Iuda?
20 And his servants arose, and made a conspiracy, and slew Joash in the house of Millo, which goeth down to Silla.
Surrexerunt autem servi eius, et coniuraverunt inter se, percusseruntque Ioas in Domo Mello in descensu Sella.
21 For Jozachar the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, smote him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
Iosachar namque filius Semaath, 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.
