2 Kings 15

1 In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Azariah son of Amaziah, king of Judah, has reigned;

以色列王雅洛貝罕二十七年，阿瑪責雅的兒子阿匝黎雅登極為猶大王。

2 he was a son of sixteen years in his reigning, and he has reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jecholiah of Jerusalem,

他登極時十六歲，在耶路撒冷作王凡五十二年；他母親名叫耶苛里雅，是耶路撒冷人。

3 and he does that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH, according to all that his father Amaziah did,

阿匝黎雅行了上主視為正義的事，完全像他父親阿瑪責雅所行的一樣，

4 only, the high places have not been removed—the people are still sacrificing and making incense in high places.

只是高丘仍沒有廢除，人民仍在高丘上焚香獻祭。

5 And YHWH strikes the king, and he is a leper to the day of his death, and he dwells in a separate house, and Jotham son of the king [is] over the house, judging the people of the land.

上主打擊了君王，君王即患了癩病，直到他死的那一天，獨自住在一所王宮裡。那時，君王的兒子約堂代理朝事，統治國家的百姓。

6 And the rest of the matters of Azariah and all that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

阿匝黎雅其餘的事蹟，他行的一切，都記載在猶大列王實錄上。

7 And Azariah lies with his fathers, and they bury him with his fathers in the city of David, and his son Jotham reigns in his stead.

阿匝黎雅與祖先同眠，與祖先同葬在達味城；他的兒子約堂繼位為王。

猶大王阿匝黎雅三十八年，雅洛貝罕的兒子則加黎雅在撒瑪黎雅登極為以色列王，在位六個月；

9 and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH as his fathers did; he has not turned aside from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin.

他行了上主視為惡的事，像他的祖先所行的一樣，沒有離開乃巴特的兒子雅洛貝罕，使以色列陷於罪惡的罪。

10 And Shallum son of Jabesh conspires against him, and strikes him before the people, and puts him to death, and reigns in his stead.

雅貝士的兒子沙隆結黨反叛他，在依貝肋罕殺了他，篡位為王。

11 And the rest of the matters of Zechariah, behold, they are written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

則加黎雅其餘的事蹟都記載在以色列列王實錄上。

12 It [is] the word of YHWH that He spoke to Jehu, saying, “Sons of the fourth [generation] sit on the throne of Israel for you”; and it is so.

這正應驗了上主對耶胡所說的話：「你的子孫要坐以色列王位，直到第四代。」

13 Shallum son of Jabesh has reigned in the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah king of Judah, and he reigns a month of days in Samaria;

17 In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem son of Gadi has reigned over Israel in Samaria, ten years.

猶大王阿匝黎雅三十九年，加狄的兒子默納恒登極為以色列王，在撒瑪黎雅作王十年，

18 And he does evil in the eyes of YHWH; he has not turned aside from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin, all his days.

19 Pul king of Asshur has come against the land, and Menahem gives one thousand talents of silver to Pul, for his hand being with him to strengthen the kingdom in his hand.

那時，亞述王普耳前來犯境，默納恒就送給了普耳一千「塔冷通」銀子，要求他扶持自己，鞏固自己的王權。

20 And Menahem brings out the silver [from] Israel, [from] all the mighty men of wealth, to give to the king of Asshur, fifty shekels of silver for each one, and the king of Asshur turns back and has not stayed there in the land.

以色列王培卡黑在位時，亞述王提革拉特丕肋色爾前來，侵佔了依雍、阿貝耳貝特瑪阿加、雅諾亞、刻德士、哈祚爾、基肋阿得、加里肋亞和納斐塔里全地；並將這些地方的居民都擄往亞述。
