2 Chronicles 24:24 (RSV) Revised Standard Version

1 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.
2 And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
3 Jehoiada got for him two wives, and he had sons and daughters.
4 After this Joash decided to restore the house of the LORD.
5 And he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, "Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year; and see that you hasten the matter." But the Levites did not hasten it.
6 So the king summoned Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, "Why have you not required the Levites to bring in from Judah and Jerusalem the tax levied by Moses, the servant of the LORD, on the congregation of Israel for the tent of testimony?"
7 For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken into the house of God; and had also used all the dedicated things of the house of the LORD for the Baals.
8 So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it outside the gate of the house of the LORD.
9 And proclamation was made throughout Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God laid upon Israel in the wilderness.
10 And all the princes and all the people rejoiced and brought their tax and dropped it into the chest until they had finished.
11 And whenever the chest was brought to the king's officers by the Levites, when they saw that there was much money in it, the king's secretary and the officer of the chief priest would come and empty the chest and take it and return it to its place. Thus they did day after day, and collected money in abundance.
12 And the king and Jehoiada gave it to those who had charge of the work of the house of the LORD, and they hired masons and carpenters to restore the house of the LORD, and also workers in iron and bronze to repair the house of the LORD.
13 So those who were engaged in the work labored, and the repairing went forward in their hands, and they restored the house of God to its proper condition and strengthened it.
14 And when they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, and with it were made utensils for the house of the LORD, both for the service and for the burnt offerings, and dishes for incense, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada.
15 But Jehoiada grew old and full of days, and died; he was a hundred and thirty years old at his death.
16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
17 Now after the death of Jehoiada the princes of Judah came and did obeisance to the king; then the king hearkened to them.
18 And they forsook the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherim and the idols. And wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their guilt.
19 Yet he sent prophets among them to bring them back to the LORD; these testified against them, but they would not give heed.
20 Then the Spirit of God took possession of Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood above the people, and said to them, "Thus says God, `Why do you transgress the commandments of the LORD, so that you cannot prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, he has forsaken you.'"
21 But they conspired against him, and by command of the king they stoned him with stones in the court of the house of the LORD.
22 Thus Joash the king did not remember the kindness which Jehoiada, Zechariah's father, had shown him, but killed his son. And when he was dying, he said, "May the LORD see and avenge!"
23 At the end of the year the army of the Syrians came up against Joash. They came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all their spoil to the king of Damascus.
24 Though the army of the Syrians had come with few men, the LORD delivered into their hand a very great army, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers. Thus they executed judgment on Joash.
25 When they had departed from him, leaving him severely wounded, his servants conspired against him because of the blood of the son of Jehoiada the priest, and slew him on his bed. So he died; and they buried him in the city of David, but they did not bury him in the tombs of the kings.
26 Those who conspired against him were Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
27 Accounts of his sons, and of the many oracles against him, and of the rebuilding of the house of God are written in the Commentary on the Book of the Kings. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
1 Joash H3101 was seven H7651 MFS years H8141 NFP old H1121 when he began to reign H4427 , and he reigned H4427 forty H705 W-MMP years H8141 NFS in Jerusalem H3389 . His mother H517 GFS-3MS \'s name H8034 W-CMS also was Zibiah H6645 of Beer H884 - sheba .
2 And Joash H3077 did H6213 W-VQY3MS that which was right H3477 in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS all H3605 NMS the days H3117 CMP of Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 .
3 And Jehoiada H3077 took H5375 W-VQY3MS for him two H8147 wives H802 GFP ; and he begot H3205 W-VHY3MS sons H1121 NMP and daughters H1323 W-CFP .
4 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS after H310 this H3651 , that Joash H3101 was H1961 VQQ3MS minded H5973 PREP to repair H2318 the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
5 And he gathered together H6908 the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS to them , Go out H3318 unto the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 , and gather H6908 of all H3605 M-CMS Israel H3478 money H3701 NMS to repair H2388 the house H1004 CMS of your God H430 from year H8141 NFS to year H8141 , and see that ye H859 W-PPRO-2MP hasten H4116 the matter H1697 . Howbeit the Levites H3881 hastened H4116 it not H3808 W-NPAR .
6 And the king H4428 D-NMS called H7121 W-VQY3MS for Jehoiada H3077 the chief H7218 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , Why H4069 IPRO hast thou not H3808 ADV required H1875 of H5921 PREP the Levites H3881 to bring in H935 L-VHFC out of Judah H3063 and out of Jerusalem H3389 the collection H4864 , according to the commandment of Moses H4872 the servant H5650 of the LORD H3068 EDS , and of the congregation H6951 of Israel H3478 , for the tabernacle H168 of witness H5715 ?
7 For H3588 CONJ the sons H1121 CMP-3FS of Athaliah H6271 , that wicked woman H4849 , had broken up H6555 the house H1004 CMS of God H430 D-EDP ; and also H1571 W-CONJ all H3605 NMS the dedicated things H6944 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS did they bestow H6213 VQQ3MP upon Baalim H1168 .
8 And at the king H4428 D-NMS \'s commandment H559 W-VQY3MS they made H6213 W-EMS a H259 MMS chest H727 , and set H5414 it without H2351 at the gate H8179 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS .
9 And they made H5414 W-VQY3MP a proclamation H6963 CMS through Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 , to bring in H935 L-VHFC to the LORD H3068 L-EDS the collection H4864 that Moses H4872 the servant H5650 of God H430 D-EDP laid upon H5921 PREP Israel H3478 in the wilderness H4057 .
10 And all H3605 CMS the princes H8269 and all H3605 W-CMS the people H5971 rejoiced H8055 , and brought in H935 , and cast H7993 into the chest H727 , until H5704 PREP they had made an end H3615 .
11 Now it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , that at what time H6256 the chest H727 was brought H935 unto H413 PREP the king H4428 D-NMS \'s office H6486 by the hand H3027 B-CFS of the Levites H3881 , and when they saw H7200 that H3588 CONJ there was much H7227 AMS money H3701 , the king H4428 D-NMS \'s scribe H5608 and the high H7218 priest H3548 \'s officer H6496 came H935 and emptied H6168 the chest H727 , and took H5375 it , and carried H7725 it to H413 PREP his place H4725 again . Thus H3541 they did H6213 VQQ3MP day H3117 B-NMS by day H3117 B-NMS , and gathered H622 money H3701 in abundance H7230 .
12 And the king H4428 D-NMS and Jehoiada H3077 gave H5414 it to H413 PREP such as did H6213 the work H4399 of the service H5656 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and hired H1961 W-VQY3MP masons H2672 and carpenters H2796 to repair H2318 the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and also H1571 W-CONJ such as wrought H2796 iron H1270 and brass H5178 to mend H2388 the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
13 So the workmen H6213 W-EMS wrought H6213 , and the work H4399 was perfected H5927 W-VHY2MS by H3027 them , and they set H5975 the house H1004 CMS of God H430 D-NAME-4MP in H5921 PREP his state H4971 , and strengthened H553 it .
14 And when they had finished H3615 it , they brought H935 the rest H7605 of the money H3701 before H6440 L-CMP the king H4428 D-NMS and Jehoiada H3077 , whereof were made H6213 vessels H3627 for the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 EDS , even vessels H3627 to minister H8335 , and to offer H5927 withal , and spoons H3709 , and vessels H3627 of gold H2091 NMS and silver H3701 . And they offered H5927 burnt offerings H5930 CFP in the house H1004 B-CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS continually H8548 all H3605 NMS the days H3117 CMP of Jehoiada H3077 .
15 But Jehoiada H3077 waxed old H2204 , and was full H7646 of days H3117 NMP when he died H4191 ; a hundred H3967 MFS and thirty H7970 W-MMP years H8141 NFS old H1121 was he when he died H4194 .
16 And they buried H6912 him in the city H5892 of David H1732 among H5973 PREP the kings H4428 , because H3588 CONJ he had done H6213 VQQ3MS good H2896 NFS in Israel H3478 , both toward H5973 God H430 D-EDP , and toward his house H1004 .
17 Now after H310 the death H4194 of Jehoiada H3077 came H935 VQQ3MP the princes H8269 CMP of Judah H3063 , and made obeisance H7812 to the king H4428 . Then H227 ADV the king H4428 D-NMS hearkened H8085 unto H413 them .
18 And they left H5800 the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 CDP of their fathers H1 , and served H5647 groves H842 and idols H6091 : and wrath H7110 came H1961 W-VPY3MS upon H5921 PREP Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 for this H2063 their trespass H819 .
19 Yet he sent H7971 W-VQY3MS prophets H5030 to them , to bring them again H7725 unto H413 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS ; and they testified H5749 against them : but they would not H3808 W-NPAR give ear H238 .
20 And the Spirit H7307 W-GFS of God H430 EDP came upon H3847 Zechariah H2148 the son H1121 of Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 , which stood H5975 above H5921 M-PREP the people H5971 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto them , Thus H3541 saith H559 W-VQY3MS God H430 NAME-4MP , Why H4100 L-IGAT transgress H5674 ye H859 PPRO-2MS the commandments H4687 of the LORD H3068 EDS , that ye cannot H3808 W-NPAR prosper H6743 ? because H3588 CONJ ye have forsaken H5800 the LORD H3068 EDS , he hath also forsaken H5800 you .
21 And they conspired H7194 against H5921 PREP-3MS him , and stoned H7275 him with stones H68 GFS at the commandment H4687 of the king H4428 D-NMS in the court H2691 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
22 Thus Joash H3101 the king H4428 D-NMS remembered H2142 not H3808 W-NPAR the kindness H2617 which H834 RPRO Jehoiada H3077 his father H1 CMS-3MS had done H6213 VQQ3MS to H5973 PREP-3MS him , but slew H2026 his son H1121 CMS-3MS . And when he died H4191 , he said H559 VQQ3MS , The LORD H3068 EDS look upon H7200 VQI3MS it , and require H1875 it .
23 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS at the end H8622 of the year H8141 , that the host H2428 of Syria H758 EMS came up H5927 against H5921 PREP-3MS him : and they came H935 W-VQY3MP to H413 PREP Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 , and destroyed H7843 all H3605 NMS the princes H8269 CMP of the people H5971 from among the people H5971 , and sent H7971 all H3605 NMS the spoil H7998 of them unto the king H4428 L-CMS of Damascus H1834 .
24 For H3588 CONJ the army H2428 NMS of the Syrians H758 EMS came H935 VQQ3MP with a small company H4705 of men H376 , and the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS delivered H5414 VQQ3MS a very H3966 ADV great H7230 LD-NMS host H2428 NMS into their hand H3027 , because H3588 CONJ they had forsaken H5800 the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 CDP of their fathers H1 . So they executed H6213 VQQ3MP judgment H8201 against H854 W-PART Joash H3101 .
25 And when they were departed H1980 from H4480 M-PREP-3MS him H3588 CONJ , ( CONJ for CONJ they left H5800 him in great H7227 AMP diseases H4251 , ) his own servants H5650 conspired H7194 against H5921 PREP-3MS him for the blood H1818 of the sons H1121 of Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 , and slew H2026 him on H5921 PREP-3MS his bed H4296 , and he died H4191 : and they buried H6912 him in the city H5892 of David H1732 , but they buried H6912 him not H3808 W-NPAR in the sepulchers H6913 of the kings H4428 .
26 And these H428 W-PMP are they that conspired H7194 against H5921 PREP-3MS him ; Zabad H2066 the son H1121 of Shimeath H8100 an Ammonitess H5984 , and Jehozabad H3075 the son H1121 of Shimrith H8116 a Moabitess H4125 .
27 Now concerning his sons H1121 W-CMP-3MS , and the greatness H7230 of the burdens H4853 laid upon H5921 PREP-3MS him , and the repairing H3247 of the house H1004 CMS of God H430 D-EDP , behold H2009 , they are written H3789 in H5921 PREP-3MS the story H4097 of the book H5612 CMS of the kings H4428 . And Amaziah H558 his son H1121 reigned H4427 in his stead H8478 .
