Ii Regum 14

1 anno secundo Ioas filii Ioachaz regis Israhel regnavit Amasias filius Ioas regis Iuda

In the second year of Joash son of Joahaz king of Israel began Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah to reign.

2 viginti quinque annorum erat cum regnare coepisset viginti autem et novem annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Ioaden de Hierusalem

He was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Jehoaddin of Jerusalem.

3 et fecit rectum coram Domino verumtamen non ut David pater eius iuxta omnia quae fecit Ioas pater suus fecit

And 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.

4 nisi hoc tantum quod excelsa non abstulit adhuc enim populus immolabat et adolebat in excelsis

Howbeit the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.

5 cumque obtinuisset regnum percussit servos suos qui interfecerant regem patrem suum

And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom was established in his hand, that he slew his servants which had slain the king his father:

6 filios autem eorum qui occiderant non occidit iuxta quod scriptum est in libro legis Mosi sicut praecepit Dominus dicens non morientur patres pro filiis neque filii morientur pro patribus sed unusquisque in peccato suo morietur

but the children of the murderers he put not to death: according to that which is written in the book 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.

7 ipse percussit Edom in valle Salinarum decem milia et adprehendit Petram in proelio vocavitque nomen eius Iecethel usque in praesentem diem

He slew of Edom in the Valley of Salt ten thousand, and took Sela by war, and called the name of it Joktheel, unto this day.

8 tunc misit Amasias nuntios ad Ioas filium Ioachaz filii Hieu regis Israhel dicens veni et videamus nos

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.

9 remisitque Ioas rex Israhel ad Amasiam regem Iuda dicens carduus Libani misit ad cedrum quae est in Libano dicens da filiam tuam filio meo uxorem transieruntque bestiae saltus quae sunt in Libano et conculcaverunt carduum

And 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 thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon, and trode down the thistle.

10 percutiens invaluisti super Edom et sublevavit te cor tuum contentus esto gloria et sede in domo tua quare provocas malum ut cadas tu et Iuda tecum

Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thine heart hath lifted thee up: glory thereof, and abide at home; for why shouldest thou meddle to [thy] hurt, that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee?

11 et non adquievit Amasias ascenditque Ioas rex Israhel et viderunt se ipse et Amasias rex Iuda in Bethsames oppido Iudae

But Amaziah would not hear. So Jehoash king of Israel went up; and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth-shemesh, which belongeth to Judah.

12 percussusque est Iuda coram Israhel et fugerunt unusquisque in tabernacula sua

And Judah was put to the worse before Israel; and they fled every man to his tent.

13 Amasiam vero regem Iuda filium Ioas filii Ahaziae cepit Ioas rex Israhel in Bethsames et adduxit eum in Hierusalem et interrupit murum Hierusalem a porta Ephraim usque ad portam Anguli quadringentis cubitis

And 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 brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the corner gate, four hundred cubists.

14 tulitque omne aurum et argentum et universa vasa quae inventa sunt in domo Domini et in thesauris regis et obsides et reversus est Samariam

And 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.

15 reliqua autem verborum Ioas quae fecit et fortitudo eius qua pugnavit contra Amasiam regem Iuda nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Israhel

Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

16 dormivitque Ioas cum patribus suis et sepultus est in Samaria cum regibus Israhel et regnavit Hieroboam filius eius pro eo

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

21 tulit autem universus populus Iudae Azariam annos natum sedecim et constituerunt eum regem pro patre eius Amasia

22 ipse aedificavit Ahilam et restituit eam Iudae postquam dormivit rex cum patribus suis

23 anno quintodecimo Amasiae filii Ioas regis Iuda regnavit Hieroboam filius Ioas regis Israhel in Samaria quadraginta et uno anno

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, [and reigned] forty and one years.

24 et fecit quod malum est coram Domino non recessit ab omnibus peccatis Hieroboam filii Nabath qui peccare fecit Israhel

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin.

He restored the border of Israel from the entering in of Hamath unto the sea of the Arabah, according to the word of the LORD, the God of Israel, which he spake by the hand of his servant Jonah the son of Amittai, the prophet, which was of Gath-hepher.

26 vidit enim Dominus adflictionem Israhel amaram nimis et quod consumpti essent usque ad clausos carcere et extremos et non esset qui auxiliaretur Israhel

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.

27 nec locutus est Dominus ut deleret nomen Israhel sub caelo sed salvavit eos in manu Hieroboam filii Ioas

And the LORD said not that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven: but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash.

28 reliqua autem sermonum Hieroboam et universa quae fecit et fortitudo eius qua proeliatus est et quomodo restituit Damascum et Emath Iudae in Israhel nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Israhel

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, are they hot written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

29 dormivitque Hieroboam cum patribus suis regibus Israhel et regnavit Zaccharias filius eius pro eo

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