1. In the seventh year of Jehu, Jehoash began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.
|
1. In the seventh H7651 year H8141 of Jehu H3058 Jehoash H3060 began to reign H4427 ; and forty H705 years H8141 reigned H4427 he in Jerusalem H3389 . And his mother H517 's name H8034 was Zibiah H6645 of Beer H4480 H884 -sheba.
|
|
2. And Jehoash did what was right in the eyes of the LORD all his days, because Jehoiada the priest instructed him.
|
2. And Jehoash H3060 did H6213 that which was right H3477 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 all H3605 his days H3117 wherein H834 Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 instructed H3384 him.
|
|
3. Nevertheless, the high places were not taken away; the people continued to sacrifice and make offerings on the high places.
|
3. But H7535 the high places H1116 were not H3808 taken away H5493 : the people H5971 still H5750 sacrificed H2076 and burnt incense H6999 in the high places H1116 .
|
|
4. Jehoash said to the priests, "All the money of the holy things that is brought into the house of the LORD, the money for which each man is assessed- the money from the assessment of persons- and the money that a man's heart prompts him to bring into the house of the LORD,
|
4. And Jehoash H3060 said H559 to H413 the priests H3548 , All H3605 the money H3701 of the dedicated things H6944 that H834 is brought H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 , even the money H3701 of every one that passeth H5674 the account , the money H3701 that every man H5315 is set at H6187 , and all H3605 the money H3701 that H834 cometh H5927 into H5921 any man H376 's heart H3820 to bring H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 ,
|
|
5. let the priests take, each from his donor, and let them repair the house wherever any need of repairs is discovered."
|
5. Let the priests H3548 take H3947 it to them , every man H376 of H4480 H854 his acquaintance H4378 : and let them H1992 repair H2388 H853 the breaches H919 of the house H1004 , wheresoever H3605 H834 H8033 any breach H919 shall be found H4672 .
|
|
6. But by the twenty-third year of King Jehoash, the priests had made no repairs on the house.
|
6. But it was H1961 so, that in the three H7969 and twentieth H6242 year H8141 of king H4428 Jehoash H3060 the priests H3548 had not H3808 repaired H2388 H853 the breaches H919 of the house H1004 .
|
|
7. Therefore King Jehoash summoned Jehoiada the priest and the other priests and said to them, "Why are you not repairing the house? Now therefore take no more money from your donors, but hand it over for the repair of the house."
|
7. Then king H4428 Jehoash H3060 called H7121 for Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 , and the other priests H3548 , and said H559 unto H413 them, Why H4069 repair H2388 ye not H369 H853 the breaches H919 of the house H1004 ? now H6258 therefore receive H3947 no H408 more money H3701 of H4480 H854 your acquaintance H4378 , but H3588 deliver H5414 it for the breaches H919 of the house H1004 .
|
|
8. So the priests agreed that they should take no more money from the people, and that they should not repair the house.
|
8. And the priests H3548 consented H225 to receive H3947 no H1115 more money H3701 of H4480 H854 the people H5971 , neither H1115 to repair H2388 H853 the breaches H919 of the house H1004 .
|
|
9. Then Jehoiada the priest took a chest and bored a hole in the lid of it and set it beside the altar on the right side as one entered the house of the LORD. And the priests who guarded the threshold put in it all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD.
|
9. But Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 took H3947 a H259 chest H727 , and bored H5344 a hole H2356 in the lid H1817 of it , and set H5414 it beside H681 the altar H4196 , on the right side H3225 as one H376 cometh H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 : and the priests H3548 that kept H8104 the door H5592 put H5414 therein H8033 H853 all H3605 the money H3701 that was brought H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
10. And whenever they saw that there was much money in the chest, the king's secretary and the high priest came up and they bagged and counted the money that was found in the house of the LORD.
|
10. And it was H1961 so , when they saw H7200 that H3588 there was much H7227 money H3701 in the chest H727 , that the king H4428 's scribe H5608 and the high H1419 priest H3548 came up H5927 , and they put up in bags H6696 , and told H4487 H853 the money H3701 that was found H4672 in the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
11. Then they would give the money that was weighed out into the hands of the workmen who had the oversight of the house of the LORD. And they paid it out to the carpenters and the builders who worked on the house of the LORD,
|
11. And they gave H5414 H853 the money H3701 , being told H8505 , into H5921 the hands H3027 of them that did H6213 the work H4399 , that had the oversight H6485 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 : and they laid it out H3318 to the carpenters H2796 H6086 and builders H1129 , that wrought H6213 upon the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 ,
|
|
12. and to the masons and the stonecutters, as well as to buy timber and quarried stone for making repairs on the house of the LORD, and for any outlay for the repairs of the house.
|
12. And to masons H1443 , and hewers H2672 of stone H68 , and to buy H7069 timber H6086 and hewed H4274 stone H68 to repair H2388 H853 the breaches H919 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 , and for all H3605 that H834 was laid out H3318 for H5921 the house H1004 to repair H2394 it .
|
|
13. But there were not made for the house of the LORD basins of silver, snuffers, bowls, trumpets, or any vessels of gold, or of silver, from the money that was brought into the house of the LORD,
|
13. Howbeit H389 there were not H3808 made H6213 for the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 bowls H5592 of silver H3701 , snuffers H4212 , basins H4219 , trumpets H2689 , any H3605 vessels H3627 of gold H2091 , or vessels H3627 of silver H3701 , of H4480 the money H3701 that was brought H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 :
|
|
14. for that was given to the workmen who were repairing the house of the LORD with it.
|
14. But H3588 they gave H5414 that to the workmen H6213 H4399 , and repaired H2388 therewith H853 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
15. And they did not ask an accounting from the men into whose hand they delivered the money to pay out to the workmen, for they dealt honestly.
|
15. Moreover they reckoned H2803 not H3808 with H854 the men H376 , into H5921 whose H834 hand H3027 they delivered H5414 H853 the money H3701 to be bestowed H5414 on workmen H6213 H4399 : for H3588 they H1992 dealt H6213 faithfully H530 .
|
|
16. The money from the guilt offerings and the money from the sin offerings was not brought into the house of the LORD; it belonged to the priests.
|
16. The trespass H817 money H3701 and sin H2403 money H3701 was not H3808 brought H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 : it was H1961 the priests H3548 .
|
|
17. At that time Hazael king of Syria went up and fought against Gath and took it. But when Hazael set his face to go up against Jerusalem,
|
17. Then H227 Hazael H2371 king H4428 of Syria H758 went up H5927 , and fought H3898 against H5921 Gath H1661 , and took H3920 it : and Hazael H2371 set H7760 his face H6440 to go up H5927 to H5921 Jerusalem H3389 .
|
|
18. Jehoash king of Judah took all the sacred gifts that Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah his fathers, the kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own sacred gifts, and all the gold that was found in the treasuries of the house of the LORD and of the king's house, and sent these to Hazael king of Syria. Then Hazael went away from Jerusalem.
|
18. And Jehoash H3060 king H4428 of Judah H3063 took H3947 H853 all H3605 the hallowed things H6944 that H834 Jehoshaphat H3092 , and Jehoram H3088 , and Ahaziah H274 , his fathers H1 , kings H4428 of Judah H3063 , had dedicated H6942 , and his own hallowed things H6944 , and all H3605 the gold H2091 that was found H4672 in the treasures H214 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 , and in the king H4428 's house H1004 , and sent H7971 it to Hazael H2371 king H4428 of Syria H758 : and he went away H5927 from H4480 H5921 Jerusalem H3389 .
|
|
19. Now the rest of the acts of Joash and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
|
19. And the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Joash H3101 , and all H3605 that H834 he did H6213 , are they H1992 not H3808 written H3789 in H5921 the book H5612 of the chronicles H1697 H3117 of the kings H4428 of Judah H3063 ?
|
|
20. His servants arose and made a conspiracy and struck down Joash in the house of Millo, on the way that goes down to Silla.
|
20. And his servants H5650 arose H6965 , and made H7194 a conspiracy H7195 , and slew H5221 H853 Joash H3101 in the house H1004 of Millo H4407 , which goeth down H3381 to Silla H5538 .
|
|
21. It was Jozacar the son of Shimeath and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, who struck him down, so that he died. And they buried him with his fathers in the city of David, and Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
|
21. For Jozachar H3108 the son H1121 of Shimeath H8100 , and Jehozabad H3075 the son H1121 of Shomer H7763 , his servants H5650 , smote H5221 him , and he died H4191 ; and they buried H6912 him with H5973 his fathers H1 in the city H5892 of David H1732 : and Amaziah H558 his son H1121 reigned H4427 in his stead H8478 .
