1. בֶּן־עֶשְׂרִים שָׁנָה אָחָז בְּמָלְכֹו וְשֵׁשׁ־עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָה מָלַךְ בִּירוּשָׁלִָם וְלֹא־עָשָׂה הַיָּשָׁר בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה כְּדָוִיד אָבִיו׃
|
1. Ahaz H271 was twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 when he began to reign H4427 , and he reigned H4427 sixteen H8337 H6240 years H8141 in Jerusalem H3389 : but he did H6213 not H3808 that which was right H3477 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 , like David H1732 his father H1 :
|
|
2. וַיֵּלֶךְ בְּדַרְכֵי מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְגַם מַסֵּכֹות עָשָׂה לַבְּעָלִים׃
|
2. For he walked H1980 in the ways H1870 of the kings H4428 of Israel H3478 , and made H6213 also H1571 molten images H4541 for Baalim H1168 .
|
|
3. וְהוּא הִקְטִיר בְּגֵיא בֶן־הִנֹּם וַיַּבְעֵר אֶת־בָּנָיו בָּאֵשׁ כְּתֹעֲבֹות הַגֹּויִם אֲשֶׁר הֹרִישׁ יְהוָה מִפְּנֵי בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל׃
|
3. Moreover he H1931 burnt incense H6999 in the valley H1516 of the son H1121 of Hinnom H2011 , and burnt H1197 H853 his children H1121 in the fire H784 , after the abominations H8441 of the heathen H1471 whom H834 the LORD H3068 had cast out H3423 before H4480 H6440 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
4. וַיְזַבֵּחַ וַיְקַטֵּר בַּבָּמֹות וְעַל־הַגְּבָעֹות וְתַחַת כָּל־עֵץ רַעֲנָן׃
|
4. He sacrificed H2076 also and burnt incense H6999 in the high places H1116 , and on H5921 the hills H1389 , and under H8478 every H3605 green H7488 tree H6086 .
|
|
5. וַיִּתְּנֵהוּ יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו בְּיַד מֶלֶךְ אֲרָם וַיַּכּוּ־בֹו וַיִּשְׁבּוּ מִמֶּנּוּ שִׁבְיָה גְדֹולָה וַיָּבִיאוּ דַּרְמָשֶׂק וְגַם בְּיַד־מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל נִתָּן וַיַּךְ־בֹּו מַכָּה גְדֹולָה׃ ס
|
5. Wherefore the LORD H3068 his God H430 delivered H5414 him into the hand H3027 of the king H4428 of Syria H758 ; and they smote H5221 him , and carried away H7617 a great H1419 multitude of H4480 them captives H7633 , and brought H935 them to Damascus H1834 . And he was also H1571 delivered H5414 into the hand H3027 of the king H4428 of Israel H3478 , who smote H5221 him with a great H1419 slaughter H4347 .
|
|
6. וַיַּהֲרֹג פֶּקַח בֶּן־רְמַלְיָהוּ בִּיהוּדָה מֵאָה וְעֶשְׂרִים אֶלֶף בְּיֹום אֶחָד הַכֹּל בְּנֵי־חָיִל בְּעָזְבָם אֶת־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי אֲבֹותָם׃
|
6. For Pekah H6492 the son H1121 of Remaliah H7425 slew H2026 in Judah H3063 a hundred H3967 and twenty H6242 thousand H505 in one H259 day H3117 , which were all H3605 valiant men H1121 H2428 ; because they had forsaken H5800 H853 the LORD H3068 God H430 of their fathers H1 .
|
|
7. וַיַּהֲרֹג זִכְרִי ׀ גִּבֹּור אֶפְרַיִם אֶת־מַעֲשֵׂיָהוּ בֶּן־הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֶת־עַזְרִיקָם נְגִיד הַבָּיִת וְאֶת־אֶלְקָנָה מִשְׁנֵה הַמֶּלֶךְ׃ ס
|
7. And Zichri H2147 , a mighty man H1368 of Ephraim H669 , slew H2026 H853 Maaseiah H4641 the king H4428 's son H1121 , and Azrikam H5840 the governor H5057 of the house H1004 , and Elkanah H511 that was next H4932 to the king H4428 .
|
|
8. וַיִּשְׁבּוּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל מֵאֲחֵיהֶם מָאתַיִם אֶלֶף נָשִׁים בָּנִים וּבָנֹות וְגַם־שָׁלָל רָב בָּזְזוּ מֵהֶם וַיָּבִיאוּ אֶת־הַשָּׁלָל לְשֹׁמְרֹון׃ ס
|
8. And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 carried away captive H7617 of their brethren H4480 H251 two hundred H3967 thousand H505 , women H802 , sons H1121 , and daughters H1323 , and took also away H962 H1571 much H7227 spoil H7998 from H4480 them , and brought H935 H853 the spoil H7998 to Samaria H8111 .
|
|
9. וְשָׁם הָיָה נָבִיא לַיהוָה עֹדֵד שְׁמֹו וַיֵּצֵא לִפְנֵי הַצָּבָא הַבָּא לְשֹׁמְרֹון וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם הִנֵּה בַּחֲמַת יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי־אֲבֹותֵיכֶם עַל־יְהוּדָה נְתָנָם בְּיֶדְכֶם וַתַּהַרְגוּ־בָם בְזַעַף עַד לַשָּׁמַיִם הִגִּיעַ׃
|
9. But a prophet H5030 of the LORD H3068 was H1961 there H8033 , whose name H8034 was Oded H5752 : and he went out H3318 before H6440 the host H6635 that came H935 to Samaria H8111 , and said H559 unto them, Behold H2009 , because the LORD H3068 God H430 of your fathers H1 was wroth H2534 with H5921 Judah H3063 , he hath delivered H5414 them into your hand H3027 , and ye have slain H2026 them in a rage H2197 that reacheth up H5060 unto H5704 heaven H8064 .
|
|
10. וְעַתָּה בְּנֵי־יְהוּדָה וִירוּשָׁלִַם אַתֶּם אֹמְרִים לִכְבֹּשׁ לַעֲבָדִים וְלִשְׁפָחֹות לָכֶם הֲלֹא רַק־אַתֶּם עִמָּכֶם אֲשָׁמֹות לַיהוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם׃
|
10. And now H6258 ye H859 purpose H559 to keep under H3533 the children H1121 of Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 for bondmen H5650 and bondwomen H8198 unto you: but are there not H3808 with H5973 you, even H7535 with you H859 , sins H819 against the LORD H3068 your God H430 ?
|
|
11. וְעַתָּה שְׁמָעוּנִי וְהָשִׁיבוּ הַשִּׁבְיָה אֲשֶׁר שְׁבִיתֶם מֵאֲחֵיכֶם כִּי חֲרֹון אַף־יְהוָה עֲלֵיכֶם׃ ס
|
11. Now H6258 hear H8085 me therefore , and deliver H7725 the captives H7633 again, which H834 ye have taken captive H7617 of your brethren H4480 H251 : for H3588 the fierce H2740 wrath H639 of the LORD H3068 is upon H5921 you.
|
|
12. וַיָּקֻמוּ אֲנָשִׁים מֵרָאשֵׁי בְנֵי־אֶפְרַיִם עֲזַרְיָהוּ בֶן־יְהֹוחָנָן בֶּרֶכְיָהוּ בֶן־מְשִׁלֵּמֹות וִיחִזְקִיָּהוּ בֶּן־שַׁלֻּם וַעֲמָשָׂא בֶּן־חַדְלָי עַל־הַבָּאִים מִן־הַצָּבָא׃
|
12. Then certain H376 of the heads H4480 H7218 of the children H1121 of Ephraim H669 , Azariah H5838 the son H1121 of Johanan H3076 , Berechiah H1296 the son H1121 of Meshillemoth H4919 , and Jehizkiah H3169 the son H1121 of Shallum H7967 , and Amasa H6021 the son H1121 of Hadlai H2311 , stood up H6965 against H5921 them that came H935 from H4480 the war H6635 ,
|
|
13. וַיֹּאמְרוּ לָהֶם לֹא־תָבִיאוּ אֶת־הַשִּׁבְיָה הֵנָּה כִּי לְאַשְׁמַת יְהוָה עָלֵינוּ אַתֶּם אֹמְרִים לְהֹסִיף עַל־חַטֹּאתֵינוּ וְעַל־אַשְׁמָתֵינוּ כִּי־רַבָּה אַשְׁמָה לָנוּ וַחֲרֹון אָף עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵל׃ ס
|
13. And said H559 unto them , Ye shall not H3808 bring in H935 H853 the captives H7633 hither H2008 : for whereas H3588 we have offended against H819 H5921 the LORD H3068 already , ye H859 intend H559 to add H3254 more to H5921 our sins H2403 and to H5921 our trespass H819 : for H3588 our trespass H819 is great H7227 , and there is fierce H2740 wrath H639 against H5921 Israel H3478 .
|
|
14. וַיַּעֲזֹב הֶחָלוּץ אֶת־הַשִּׁבְיָה וְאֶת־הַבִּזָּה לִפְנֵי הַשָּׂרִים וְכָל־הַקָּהָל׃
|
14. So the armed men H2502 left H5800 H853 the captives H7633 and the spoil H961 before H6440 the princes H8269 and all H3605 the congregation H6951 .
|
|
15. וַיָּקֻמוּ הָאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר־נִקְּבוּ בְשֵׁמֹות וַיַּחֲזִיקוּ בַשִּׁבְיָה וְכָל־מַעֲרֻמֵּיהֶם הִלְבִּישׁוּ מִן־הַשָּׁלָל וַיַּלְבִּשׁוּם וַיַּנְעִלוּם וַיַּאֲכִלוּם וַיַּשְׁקוּם וַיְסֻכוּם וַיְנַהֲלוּם בַּחֲמֹרִים לְכָל־כֹּושֵׁל וַיְבִיאוּם יְרֵחֹו עִיר־הַתְּמָרִים אֵצֶל אֲחֵיהֶם וַיָּשׁוּבוּ שֹׁמְרֹון׃ פ
|
15. And the men H376 which H834 were expressed H5344 by name H8034 rose up H6965 , and took H2388 the captives H7633 , and with H4480 the spoil H7998 clothed H3847 all H3605 that were naked H4636 among them , and arrayed H3847 them , and shod H5274 them , and gave them to eat H398 and to drink H8248 , and anointed H5480 them , and carried H5095 all H3605 the feeble H3782 of them upon asses H2543 , and brought H935 them to Jericho H3405 , the city of palm trees H5899 , to H681 their brethren H251 : then they returned H7725 to Samaria H8111 .
|
|
16. בָּעֵת הַהִיא שָׁלַח הַמֶּלֶךְ אָחָז עַל־מַלְכֵי אַשּׁוּר לַעְזֹר לֹו׃
|
16. At that H1931 time H6256 did king H4428 Ahaz H271 send H7971 unto H5921 the kings H4428 of Assyria H804 to help H5826 him.
|
|
17. וְעֹוד אֲדֹומִים בָּאוּ וַיַּכּוּ בִיהוּדָה וַיִּשְׁבּוּ־שֶׁבִי׃
|
17. For again H5750 the Edomites H130 had come H935 and smitten H5221 Judah H3063 , and carried away H7617 captives H7628 .
|
|
18. וּפְלִשְׁתִּים פָּשְׁטוּ בְּעָרֵי הַשְּׁפֵלָה וְהַנֶּגֶב לִיהוּדָה וַיִּלְכְּדוּ אֶת־בֵּית־שֶׁמֶשׁ וְאֶת־אַיָּלֹון וְאֶת־הַגְּדֵרֹות וְאֶת־שֹׂוכֹו וּבְנֹותֶיהָ וְאֶת־תִּמְנָה וּבְנֹותֶיהָ וְאֶת־גִּמְזֹו וְאֶת־בְּנֹתֶיהָ וַיֵּשְׁבוּ שָׁם׃
|
18. The Philistines H6430 also had invaded H6584 the cities H5892 of the low country H8219 , and of the south H5045 of Judah H3063 , and had taken H3920 H853 Beth H1053 -shemesh , and Ajalon H357 , and Gederoth H1450 , and Shocho H7755 with the villages H1323 thereof , and Timnah H8553 with the villages H1323 thereof, Gimzo H1579 also and the villages H1323 thereof : and they dwelt H3427 there H8033 .
|
|
19. כִּי־הִכְנִיעַ יְהוָה אֶת־יְהוּדָה בַּעֲבוּר אָחָז מֶלֶךְ־יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי הִפְרִיעַ בִּיהוּדָה וּמָעֹול מַעַל בַּיהוָה׃
|
19. For H3588 the LORD H3068 brought H3665 H853 Judah H3063 low because of H5668 Ahaz H271 king H4428 of Israel H3478 ; for H3588 he made Judah naked H6544 H3063 , and transgressed H4603 sore H4604 against the LORD H3068 .
|
|
20. וַיָּבֹא עָלָיו תִּלְּגַת פִּלְנְאֶסֶר מֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וַיָּצַר לֹו וְלֹא חֲזָקֹו׃
|
20. And Tiglath H8407 -pileser king H4428 of Assyria H804 came H935 unto H5921 him , and distressed H6696 him , but strengthened H2388 him not H3808 .
|
|
21. כִּי־חָלַק אָחָז אֶת־בֵּית יְהוָה וְאֶת־בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ וְהַשָּׂרִים וַיִּתֵּן לְמֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וְלֹא לְעֶזְרָה לֹו׃
|
21. For H3588 Ahaz H271 took away a portion H2505 out of H853 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 , and out of the house H1004 of the king H4428 , and of the princes H8269 , and gave H5414 it unto the king H4428 of Assyria H804 : but he helped H5833 him not H3808 .
|
|
22. וּבְעֵת הָצֵר לֹו וַיֹּוסֶף לִמְעֹול בַּיהוָה הוּא הַמֶּלֶךְ אָחָז׃
|
22. And in the time H6256 of his distress H6887 did he trespass H4603 yet more H3254 against the LORD H3068 : this H1931 is that king H4428 Ahaz H271 .
|
|
23. וַיִּזְבַּח לֵאלֹהֵי דַרְמֶשֶׂק הַמַּכִּים בֹּו וַיֹּאמֶר כִּי אֱלֹהֵי מַלְכֵי־אֲרָם הֵם מַעְזְרִים אֹותָם לָהֶם אֲזַבֵּחַ וְיַעְזְרוּנִי וְהֵם הָיוּ־לֹו לְהַכְשִׁילֹו וּלְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵל׃
|
23. For he sacrificed H2076 unto the gods H430 of Damascus H1834 , which smote H5221 him : and he said H559 , Because H3588 the gods H430 of the kings H4428 of Syria H758 help H5826 them, therefore will I sacrifice H2076 to them , that they may help H5826 me . But they H1992 were H1961 the ruin H3782 of him , and of all H3605 Israel H3478 .
|
|
24. וַיֶּאֱסֹף אָחָז אֶת־כְּלֵי בֵית־הָאֱלֹהִים וַיְקַצֵּץ אֶת־כְּלֵי בֵית־הָאֱלֹהִים וַיִּסְגֹּר אֶת־דַּלְתֹות בֵּית־יְהוָה וַיַּעַשׂ לֹו מִזְבְּחֹות בְּכָל־פִּנָּה בִּירוּשָׁלִָם׃
|
24. And Ahaz H271 gathered together H622 H853 the vessels H3627 of the house H1004 of God H430 , and cut in pieces H7112 H853 the vessels H3627 of the house H1004 of God H430 , and shut up H5462 H853 the doors H1817 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 , and he made H6213 him altars H4196 in every H3605 corner H6438 of Jerusalem H3389 .
|
|
25. וּבְכָל־עִיר וָעִיר לִיהוּדָה עָשָׂה בָמֹות לְקַטֵּר לֵאלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים וַיַּכְעֵס אֶת־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי אֲבֹתָיו׃
|
25. And in every H3605 several city H5892 H5892 of Judah H3063 he made H6213 high places H1116 to burn incense H6999 unto other H312 gods H430 , and provoked to anger H3707 H853 the LORD H3068 God H430 of his fathers H1 .
|
|
26. וְיֶתֶר דְּבָרָיו וְכָל־דְּרָכָיו הָרִאשֹׁנִים וְהָאַחֲרֹונִים הִנָּם כְּתוּבִים עַל־סֵפֶר מַלְכֵי־יְהוּדָה וְיִשְׂרָאֵל׃
|
26. Now the rest H3499 of his acts H1697 and of all H3605 his ways H1870 , first H7223 and last H314 , behold H2009 , they are written H3789 in H5921 the book H5612 of the kings H4428 of Judah H3063 and Israel H3478 .
|
|
27. וַיִּשְׁכַּב אָחָז עִם־אֲבֹתָיו וַיִּקְבְּרֻהוּ בָעִיר בִּירוּשָׁלִַם כִּי לֹא הֱבִיאֻהוּ לְקִבְרֵי מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּמְלֹךְ יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ בְנֹו תַּחְתָּיו׃ פ
|
27. And Ahaz H271 slept H7901 with H5973 his fathers H1 , and they buried H6912 him in the city H5892 , even in Jerusalem H3389 : but H3588 they brought H935 him not H3808 into the sepulchers H6913 of the kings H4428 of Israel H3478 : and Hezekiah H3169 his son H1121 reigned H4427 in his stead H8478 .
