2 Raja-raja 14

1 Dalam tahun kedua zaman Yoas bin Yoahas, raja Israel, Amazia, anak Yoas raja Yehuda menjadi raja.

In the second year of Joas son of Joachaz, king of Israel, reigned Amasias son of Joas king of Juda.

2 Ia berumur dua puluh lima tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja dan dua puluh sembilan tahun lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem. Nama ibunya ialah Yoadan, dari Yerusalem.

He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and nine and twenty years he reigned in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Joadan of Jerusalem.

3 Ia melakukan apa yang benar di mata TUHAN, hanya bukan seperti Daud, bapa leluhurnya. Ia berbuat tepat seperti yang diperbuat Yoas, ayahnya.

And he did that which was right before the Lord, but yet not like David his father. He did according to all things that Joas his father did:

4 Namun demikian, bukit-bukit pengorbanan tidaklah dijauhkan. Bangsa itu masih mempersembahkan dan membakar korban di bukit-bukit itu.

But this only, that he took not away the high places: for yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.

5 Segera sesudah kuasa kerajaan itu kokoh di tangannya, dibunuhnyalah pegawai-pegawainya yang telah membunuh raja, yaitu ayahnya.

And when he had possession of the kingdom, he put his servants to death that had slain the king his father:

6 Tetapi anak-anak para pembunuh itu tidak dihukum mati olehnya, seperti yang tertulis dalam kitab Taurat Musa, di mana TUHAN telah memberi perintah: "Janganlah ayah dihukum mati karena anaknya, janganlah juga anak dihukum mati karena ayahnya, melainkan setiap orang harus dihukum mati karena dosanya sendiri."

But the children of the murderers he did not put to death, according to that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the Lord commanded, saying: The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: but every man shall die for his own sins.

7 Ia mengalahkan Edom di Lembah Asin, sepuluh ribu orang banyaknya, dan merebut Sela dalam peperangan itu, lalu dinamainyalah kota itu Yokteel; begitulah sampai hari ini.

He slew of Edom in the valley of the Saltpits ten thousand men, and took the rock by war, and called the name thereof Jectehel, unto this day.

8 Pada waktu itu Amazia menyuruh utusan kepada Yoas bin Yoahas bin Yehu, raja Israel, mengatakan: "Mari kita mengadu tenaga!"

Then Amasias sent messengers to Joas son of Joachaz, son of Jehu king of Israel, saying: Come let us see one another.

9 Tetapi Yoas, raja Israel, menyuruh orang kepada Amazia, raja Yehuda, mengatakan: "Rumput duri yang di gunung Libanon mengirim pesan kepada pohon aras yang di gunung Libanon, bunyinya: Berikanlah anakmu perempuan kepada anakku laki-laki menjadi isterinya. Tetapi binatang-binatang hutan yang ada di gunung Libanon itu berjalan lewat dari sana, lalu menginjak rumput duri itu.

And Joas king of Israel sent again to Amasias king of Juda, saying: A thistle of Libanus sent to a cedar tree, which is in Libanus, saying: Give thy daughter to my son to wife. And the beasts of the forest, that are in Libanus, passed and trod down the thistle.

10 Memang engkau telah mengalahkan Edom, sebab itu engkau menjadi tinggi hati. Cukuplah bagimu mendapat kehormatan itu dan tinggallah di rumahmu. Untuk apa engkau menantang malapetaka, sehingga engkau jatuh dan Yehuda bersama-sama engkau?"

Thou hast beaten and prevailed over Edom, and thy heart hath lifted thee up: be content with the glory, and sit at home: why provokest thou evil, that thou shouldst fall, and Juda with thee?

11 Tetapi Amazia tidak mau mendengarkan, sebab itu majulah Yoas, raja Israel, lalu mengadu tenagalah mereka, ia dan Amazia, raja Yehuda, di Bet-Semes yang termasuk wilayah Yehuda.

But Amasias did not rest satisfied. So Joas king of Israel went up, and he and Amasias king of Juda saw one another in Bethsames a town in Juda.

12 Yehuda terpukul kalah oleh Israel, sehingga masing-masing lari ke kemahnya.

And Juda was put to the worst before Israel, and they fled every man to their dwellings.

13 Yoas, raja Israel menangkap Amazia, raja Yehuda, anak Yoas bin Ahazia, di Bet-Semes. Lalu Yoas masuk ke Yerusalem, dan membongkar tembok Yerusalem dari Pintu Gerbang Efraim sampai ke Pintu Gerbang Sudut, empat ratus hasta panjangnya.

But Joas king of Israel took Amasias, king of Juda the son of Joas, the son of Ochozias, in Bethsames, and brought him into Jerusalem: and he broke down the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim to the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.

14 Sesudah itu ia mengambil segala emas dan perak dan segala perkakas yang terdapat dalam rumah TUHAN dan dalam perbendaharaan istana raja, juga orang-orang sandera, kemudian pulanglah ia ke Samaria.

And he took all the gold, and silver, and all the vessels, that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the king’s treasures, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.

15 Selebihnya dari riwayat Yoas, apa yang dilakukannya dan kepahlawanannya dan bagaimana ia berperang melawan Amazia, raja Yehuda, bukankah semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Israel?

But the rest of the acts of Joas, which he did, and his valour, wherewith he fought against Amasias king of Juda, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

16 Kemudian Yoas mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya, dan ia dikuburkan di Samaria di samping raja-raja Israel. Maka Yerobeam, anaknya, menjadi raja menggantikan dia.

And Joas slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria, with the kings of Israel: and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.

17 Amazia bin Yoas, raja Yehuda, masih hidup lima belas tahun lamanya sesudah matinya Yoas bin Yoahas, raja Israel.

And Amasias the son of Joas king of Juda lived, after the death of Joas son of Joachaz king of Israel fifteen years.

18 Selebihnya dari riwayat Amazia, bukankah semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Yehuda?

And the rest of the acts of Amasias, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?

19 Di Yerusalem orang mengadakan persepakatan melawan dia, sebab itu larilah ia ke Lakhis. Tetapi mereka menyuruh mengejar dia ke Lakhis, lalu dibunuhlah dia di sana.

Now they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: and he fled to Lachis. And they sent after him to Lachis, and killed him there.

20 Diangkutlah dia dengan kuda, lalu dikuburkan di Yerusalem di samping nenek moyangnya di kota Daud.

And they brought him away upon horses, and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.

21 Segenap bangsa Yehuda mengambil Azarya, yang masih berumur enam belas tahun dan mengangkat dia menjadi raja menggantikan ayahnya, Amazia.

And all the people of Juda took Azarias, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amasias.

22 Ia memperkuat Elat dan mengembalikannya kepada Yehuda, sesudah raja mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya.

He built Elath, and restored it to Juda, after that the king slept with his fathers.

23 Dalam tahun kelima belas zaman Amazia bin Yoas, raja Yehuda, Yerobeam, anak Yoas, raja Israel, menjadi raja di Samaria. Ia memerintah empat puluh satu tahun lamanya.

In the fifteenth year of Amasias son of Joas king of Juda, reigned Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel in Samaria, one and forty years:

24 Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN. Ia tidak menjauh dari segala dosa Yerobeam bin Nebat, yang mengakibatkan orang Israel berdosa pula.

And he did that which was evil before the Lord. He departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.

25 Ia mengembalikan daerah Israel, dari jalan masuk ke Hamat sampai ke Laut Araba sesuai dengan firman TUHAN, Allah Israel, yang telah diucapkan-Nya dengan perantaraan hamba-Nya, nabi Yunus bin Amitai dari Gat-Hefer.

He restored the borders of Israel from the entrance of Emath, unto the sea of the wilderness, according to the word of the Lord the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonas the son of Amathi, the prophet, who was of Geth, which is in Opher.

26 Sebab TUHAN telah melihat betapa pahitnya kesengsaraan orang Israel itu: sudah habis lenyap baik yang tinggi maupun yang rendah kedudukannya, dan tidak ada penolong bagi orang Israel.

For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel that it was exceeding bitter, and that they were consumed even to them that were shut up in prison, and the lowest persons, and that there was no one to help Israel.

27 Tetapi TUHAN tidak mengatakan bahwa Ia akan menghapuskan nama Israel dari kolong langit; jadi Ia menolong mereka dengan perantaraan Yerobeam bin Yoas.

And the Lord did not say that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joas.

28 Selebihnya dari riwayat Yerobeam dan segala yang dilakukannya dan kepahlawanannya, bagaimana ia berperang, dan bagaimana ia mengembalikan Damsyik dan Hamat-Yehuda ke dalam Israel, bukankah semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Israel?

But the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his velour, wherewith he fought, and how he restored Damascus, and Emath to Juda in Israel, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

29 Kemudian Yerobeam mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya, raja-raja Israel. Maka Zakharia, anaknya, menjadi raja menggantikan dia.

And Jeroboam slept with his fathers the kings of Israel, and Zacharias his son reigned in his stead.
