1. בִּשְׁנַת שְׁלֹשִׁים וָשֵׁשׁ לְמַלְכוּת אָסָא עָלָה בַּעְשָׁא מֶלֶךְ־יִשְׂרָאֵל עַל־יְהוּדָה וַיִּבֶן אֶת־הָרָמָה לְבִלְתִּי תֵּת יוֹצֵא וָבָא לְאָסָא מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה ׃

1. In the six H8337 and thirtieth H7970 year H8141 of the reign H4438 of Asa H609 Baasha H1201 king H4428 of Israel H3478 came up H5927 against H5921 Judah H3063 , and built H1129 H853 Ramah H7414 , to the intent that he might let H5414 none H1115 go out H3318 or come in H935 to Asa H609 king H4428 of Judah H3063 .
|
|
2. וַיֹּצֵא אָסָא כֶּסֶף וְזָהָב מֵאֹצְרוֹת בֵּית יְהוָה וּבֵית הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיִּשְׁלַח אֶל־בֶּן־הֲדַד מֶלֶךְ אֲרָם הַיּוֹשֵׁב בְּדַרְמֶשֶׂק לֵאמֹר ׃
|
2. Then Asa H609 brought out H3318 silver H3701 and gold H2091 out of the treasures H4480 H214 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 and of the king H4428 's house H1004 , and sent H7971 to H413 Ben H1130 -hadad king H4428 of Syria H758 , that dwelt H3427 at Damascus H1834 , saying H559 ,

3. בְּרִית בֵּינִי וּבֵינֶךָ וּבֵין אָבִי וּבֵין אָבִיךָ הִנֵּה שָׁלַחְתִּי לְךָ כֶּסֶף וְזָהָב לֵךְ הָפֵר בְּרִיתְךָ אֶת־בַּעְשָׁא מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל וְיַעֲלֶה מֵעָלָי ׃
|
3. There is a league H1285 between H996 me and thee , as there was between H996 my father H1 and thy father H1 : behold H2009 , I have sent H7971 thee silver H3701 and gold H2091 ; go H1980 , break H6565 thy league H1285 with H854 Baasha H1201 king H4428 of Israel H3478 , that he may depart H5927 from H4480 H5921 me.

|
4. וַיִּשְׁמַע בֶּן הֲדַד אֶל־הַמֶּלֶךְ אָסָא וַיִּשְׁלַח אֶת־שָׂרֵי הַחֲיָלִים אֲשֶׁר־לוֹ אֶל־עָרֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיַּכּוּ אֶת־עִיּוֹן וְאֶת־דָּן וְאֵת אָבֵל מָיִם וְאֵת כָּל־מִסְכְּנוֹת עָרֵי נַפְתָּלִי ׃
|
4. And Ben H1130 -hadad hearkened H8085 unto H413 king H4428 Asa H609 , and sent H7971 H853 the captains H8269 of his H834 armies H2428 against H413 the cities H5892 of Israel H3478 ; and they smote H5221 H853 Ijon H5859 , and Dan H1835 , and Abel H66 -maim , and all H3605 the store H4543 cities H5892 of Naphtali H5321 .
|
|
5. וַיְהִי כִּשְׁמֹעַ בַּעְשָׁא וַיֶּחְדַּל מִבְּנוֹת אֶת־הָרָמָה וַיַּשְׁבֵּת אֶת־מְלַאכְתּוֹ ׃ ס
|
5. And it came to pass H1961 , when Baasha H1201 heard H8085 it , that he left off H2308 building H4480 H1129 H853 of Ramah H7414 , and let H853 his work H4399 cease H7673 .
|
|
6. וְאָסָא הַמֶּלֶךְ לָקַח אֶת־כָּל־יְהוּדָה וַיִּשְׂאוּ אֶת־אַבְנֵי הָרָמָה וְאֶת־עֵצֶיהָ אֲשֶׁר בָּנָה בַּעְשָׁא וַיִּבֶן בָּהֶם אֶת־גֶּבַע וְאֶת־הַמִּצְפָּה ׃ ס
|
6. Then Asa H609 the king H4428 took H3947 H853 all H3605 Judah H3063 ; and they carried away H5375 H853 the stones H68 of Ramah H7414 , and the timber H6086 thereof, wherewith H834 Baasha H1201 was building H1129 ; and he built H1129 therewith H853 Geba H1387 and Mizpah H4709 .
|
|
7. וּבָעֵת הַהִיא בָּא חֲנָנִי הָרֹאֶה אֶל־אָסָא מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו בְּהִשָּׁעֶנְךָ עַל־מֶלֶךְ אֲרָם וְלֹא נִשְׁעַנְתָּ עַל־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ עַל־כֵּן נִמְלַט חֵיל מֶלֶךְ־אֲרָם מִיָּדֶךָ ׃
|
7. And at that H1931 time H6256 Hanani H2607 the seer H7203 came H935 to H413 Asa H609 king H4428 of Judah H3063 , and said H559 unto H413 him , Because thou hast relied H8172 on H5921 the king H4428 of Syria H758 , and not H3808 relied H8172 on H5921 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 , therefore H5921 H3651 is the host H2428 of the king H4428 of Syria H758 escaped H4422 out of thine hand H4480 H3027 .
|
|
8. הֲלֹא הַכּוּשִׁים וְהַלּוּבִים הָיוּ לְחַיִל לָרֹב לְרֶכֶב וּלְפָרָשִׁים לְהַרְבֵּה מְאֹד וּבְהִשָּׁעֶנְךָ עַל־יְהוָה נְתָנָם בְּיָדֶךָ ׃
|
8. Were H1961 not H3808 the Ethiopians H3569 and the Lubims H3864 a huge H7230 host H2428 , with very H3966 many H7235 chariots H7393 and horsemen H6571 ? yet , because thou didst rely H8172 on H5921 the LORD H3068 , he delivered H5414 them into thine hand H3027 .
|
|
9. כִּי יְהוָה עֵינָיו מְשֹׁטְטוֹת בְּכָל־הָאָרֶץ לְהִתְחַזֵּק עִם־לְבָבָם שָׁלֵם אֵלָיו נִסְכַּלְתָּ עַל־זֹאת כִּי מֵעַתָּה יֵשׁ עִמְּךָ מִלְחָמוֹת ׃
|
9. For H3588 the eyes H5869 of the LORD H3068 run to and fro H7751 throughout the whole H3605 earth H776 , to show himself strong H2388 in the behalf of H5973 them whose heart H3824 is perfect H8003 toward H413 him. Herein H5921 H2063 thou hast done foolishly H5528 : therefore H3588 from henceforth H4480 H6258 thou shalt have H3426 wars H4421 .
|
|
10. וַיִּכְעַס אָסָא אֶל־הָרֹאֶה וַיִּתְּנֵהוּ בֵּית הַמַּהְפֶּכֶת כִּי־בְזַעַף עִמּוֹ עַל־זֹאת וַיְרַצֵּץ אָסָא מִן־הָעָם בָּעֵת הַהִיא ׃
|
10. Then Asa H609 was wroth H3707 with H413 the seer H7203 , and put H5414 him in a prison H4115 house H1004 ; for H3588 he was in a rage H2197 with H5973 him because of H5921 this H2063 thing . And Asa H609 oppressed H7533 some of H4480 the people H5971 the same H1931 time H6256 .
|
|
11. וְהִנֵּה דִּבְרֵי אָסָא הָרִאשׁוֹנִים וְהָאַחֲרוֹנִים הִנָּם כְּתוּבִים עַל־סֵפֶר הַמְּלָכִים לִיהוּדָה וְיִשְׂרָאֵל ׃
|
11. And, behold H2009 , the acts H1697 of Asa H609 , first H7223 and last H314 , lo H2009 , they are written H3789 in H5921 the book H5612 of the kings H4428 of Judah H3063 and Israel H3478 .
|
|
12. וַיֶּחֱלֶא אָסָא בִּשְׁנַת שְׁלוֹשִׁים וָתֵשַׁע לְמַלְכוּתוֹ בְּרַגְלָיו עַד־לְמַעְלָה חָלְיוֹ וְגַם־בְּחָלְיוֹ לֹא־דָרַשׁ אֶת־יְהוָה כִּי בָּרֹפְאִים ׃
|
12. And Asa H609 in the thirty H7970 and ninth H8672 year H8141 of his reign H4438 was diseased H2456 in his feet H7272 , until H5704 his disease H2483 was exceeding H4605 great : yet H1571 in his disease H2483 he sought H1875 not H3808 H853 to the LORD H3068 , but H3588 to the physicians H7495 .
|
|
13. וַיִּשְׁכַּב אָסָא עִם־אֲבֹתָיו וַיָּמָת בִּשְׁנַת אַרְבָּעִים וְאַחַת לְמָלְכוֹ ׃
|
13. And Asa H609 slept H7901 with H5973 his fathers H1 , and died H4191 in the one H259 and fortieth H705 year H8141 of his reign H4427 .
|
|
14. וַיִּקְבְּרֻהוּ בְקִבְרֹתָיו אֲשֶׁר כָּרָה־לוֹ בְּעִיר דָּוִיד וַיַּשְׁכִּיבֻהוּ בַּמִּשְׁכָּב אֲשֶׁר מִלֵּא בְּשָׂמִים וּזְנִים מְרֻקָּחִים בְּמִרְקַחַת מַעֲשֶׂה וַיִּשְׂרְפוּ־לוֹ שְׂרֵפָה גְּדוֹלָה עַד־לִמְאֹד ׃
|
14. And they buried H6912 him in his own sepulchers H6913 , which H834 he had made H3738 for himself in the city H5892 of David H1732 , and laid H7901 him in the bed H4904 which H834 was filled H4390 with sweet odors H1314 and divers kinds H2177 of spices prepared by the apothecaries' art H7543 H4842 H4639 : and they made H8313 a very H5704 H3966 great H1419 burning H8316 for him.
