2 Kings 14
1 In the second year of Joash son of Joahaz king of Israel began Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah to reign.
以色列王约哈斯的儿子约阿施第二年，犹大王约阿施的儿子亚玛谢登基。
2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Jehoaddin of Jerusalem.
他登基的时候年二十五岁，在耶路撒冷作王二十九年。他母亲名叫约耶但，是耶路撒冷人。
3 He did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, yet not like David his father: he did according to all that Joash his father had done.
亚玛谢行耶和华眼中看为正的事，但不如他祖大卫，乃效法他父约阿施一切所行的；
4 However the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
只是邱坛还没有废去，百姓仍在那里献祭烧香。
5 It happened, as soon as the kingdom was established in his hand, that he killed his servants who had slain the king his father:
国一坚定，就把杀他父王的臣仆杀了，
6 but the children of the murderers he did not put to death; according to that which is written in the scroll of the law of Moses, as the LORD commanded, saying, "The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin."
却没有治死杀王之人的儿子，是照摩西律法书上耶和华所吩咐的说：“不可因子杀父，也不可因父杀子，各人要为本身的罪而死。”
7 He killed of Edom in the Valley of Salt ten thousand, and took Sela by war, and called its name Joktheel, to this day.
亚玛谢在盐谷杀了以东人一万，又攻取了西拉，改名叫约帖，直到今日。
8 Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us look one another in the face."
那时，亚玛谢差遣使者去见耶户的孙子约哈斯的儿子以色列王约阿 施，说：“你来，我们二人相见于战场。”
9 Jehoash the king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, "The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son as wife. Then a wild animal that was in Lebanon passed by, and trampled down the thistle.
以色列王约阿施差遣使者去见犹大王亚玛谢，说：“黎巴嫩的蒺藜差遣使者去见黎巴嫩的香柏树，说：将你的女儿给我儿子为妻。后来黎巴嫩有一只野兽经过，把蒺藜践踏了。
10 You have indeed struck Edom, and your heart has lifted you up. Enjoy the glory of it, and stay at home; for why should you meddle to your harm, that you should fall, even you, and Judah with you?'"
你打败了以东人就心高气傲，你以此为荣耀，在家里安居就罢了，为何要惹祸，使自己和犹大国一同败亡呢？”
11 But Amaziah would not listen. So Jehoash king of Israel went up; and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.
亚玛谢却不肯听这话。于是以色列王约阿施上来，在犹大的伯·示麦与犹大王亚玛谢相见于战场。
12 Judah was defeated by Israel; and they fled every man to his tent.
犹大人败在以色列人面前，各自逃回家里去了。
13 Jehoash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Jehoash the son of Ahaziah, at Beth Shemesh, and came to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate, six hundred eighty-nine feet.
以色列王约阿施在伯·示麦擒住亚哈谢的孙子、约阿施的儿子犹大王亚玛谢，就来到耶路撒冷，拆毁耶路撒冷的城墙，从以法莲门直到角门共四百肘，
14 He took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
又将耶和华殿里与王宫府库里所有的金银和器皿都拿了去，并带人去为质，就回撒马利亚去了。
15 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
约阿施其余所行的事和他的勇力，并与犹大王亚玛谢争战的事，都写在以色列诸王记上。
16 Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam his son reigned in his place.
约阿施与他列祖同睡，葬在撒马利亚，以色列诸王的坟地里。他儿子耶罗波安接续他作王。
17 Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.
以色列王约哈斯的儿子约阿施死后，犹大王约阿施的儿子亚玛谢又活了十五年。
18 Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
亚玛谢其余的事都写在犹大列王记上。
19 They made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish: but they sent after him to Lachish, and killed him there.
耶路撒冷有人背叛亚玛谢，他就逃到拉吉；叛党却打发人到拉吉将他杀了。
20 They brought him on horses; and he was buried at Jerusalem with his fathers in the City of David.
人就用马将他的尸首驮到耶路撒冷，葬在大卫城他列祖的坟地里。
21 All the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the place of his father Amaziah.
犹大众民立亚玛谢的儿子亚撒利雅接续他父作王，那时他年十六岁。
22 He built Eilat, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.
亚玛谢与他列祖同睡之后，亚撒利雅收回以拉他仍归犹大，又重新修理。
23 In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel began to reign in Samaria for forty-one years.
犹大王约阿施的儿子亚玛谢十五年，以色列王约阿施的儿子耶罗波安在撒马利亚登基，作王四十一年。
24 He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin.
他行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，不离开尼八的儿子耶罗波安使以色列人陷在罪里的一切罪。
25 He restored the border of Israel from Lebo Hamath to the sea of the Arabah, according to the word of the LORD, the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonah the son of Amittai, the prophet, who was of Gath Hepher.
他收回以色列边界之地，从哈马口直到亚拉巴海，正如耶和华—以色列的 神借他仆人迦特希弗人亚米太的儿子先知约拿所说的。
26 For the LORD saw the affliction of Israel, that it was very bitter; for there was none shut up nor left at large, neither was there any helper for Israel.
因为耶和华看见以色列人甚是艰苦，无论困住的、自由的都没有了，也无人帮助以色列人。
27 The LORD did not say that he would blot out the name of Israel from under the sky; but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash.
耶和华并没有说要将以色列的名从天下涂抹，乃借约阿施的儿子耶罗波安拯救他们。
28 Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might, how he warred, and how he recovered Damascus, and Hamath, which had belonged to Judah, for Israel, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
耶罗波安其余的事，凡他所行的和他的勇力，他怎样争战，怎样收回大马士革和先前属犹大的哈马归以色列，都写在以色列诸王记上。
29 And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, and he was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Zechariah his son reigned in his place.
耶罗波安与他列祖以色列诸王同睡。他儿子撒迦利雅接续他作王。
