1 Amaziah H558 was twenty H6242 and five H2568 years H8141 NFS old H1121 when he began to reign H4427 , and he reigned H4427 twenty H6242 W-MMP and nine H8672 years H8141 NFS in Jerusalem H3389 . And his mother H517 GFS-3MS \'s name H8034 W-CMS was Jehoaddan H3086 of Jerusalem H3389 .
2 And he did H6213 W-VQY3MS that which was right H3477 in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS , but H7535 ADV not H3808 NADV with a perfect H8003 heart H3824 .
3 Now it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when H834 K-RPRO the kingdom H4467 was established H2388 to H5921 PREP-3MS him , that he slew H2026 his servants H5650 that had killed H5221 the king H4428 D-NMS his father H1 .
4 But he slew H4191 not H3808 NADV their children H1121 , but H3588 CONJ did as it is written H3789 in the law H8451 in the book H5612 of Moses H4872 , where H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS commanded H6680 VPQ3MS , saying H559 L-VQFC , The fathers H1 shall not H3808 NADV die H4191 VQY3MP for H5921 PREP the children H1121 NMP , neither H3808 NADV shall the children H1121 die H4191 VQY3MP for H5921 PREP the fathers H1 , but H3588 CONJ every man H376 NMS shall die H4191 for his own sin H2399 .
5 Moreover Amaziah H558 gathered Judah together H6908 , and made H5975 them captains H8269 over thousands H505 , and captains H8269 over hundreds H3967 , according to the houses H1004 of their fathers H1 , throughout all H3605 L-CMS Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144 : and he numbered H6485 them from twenty H6242 years H8141 NFS old H1121 and above H4605 , and found H4672 them three H7969 BFS hundred H3967 BFP thousand H505 W-BMS choice H977 men , able to go forth H3318 to war H6635 NMS , that could handle H270 spear H7420 and shield H6793 .
6 He hired H7936 also a hundred H3967 MFS thousand H505 W-BMS mighty men H1368 AMS of valor H2428 out of Israel H3478 for a hundred H3967 talents H3603 of silver H3701 NMS .
7 But there came H935 VQPMS a man H376 W-NMS of God H430 D-EDP to H413 PREP-3MS him , saying H559 L-VQFC , O king H4428 D-NMS , let not H408 NPAR the army H6635 of Israel H3478 go H935 VQY3MS with H5973 PREP-2MS thee ; for H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS is not H369 NPAR with H5973 PREP Israel H3478 , to wit , with all H3605 NMS the children H1121 of Ephraim H669 .
8 But H3588 CONJ if H518 PART thou H859 PPRO-2MS wilt go H935 , do H6213 VQI2MS it , be strong H2388 for the battle H4421 : God H430 D-NAME-4MP shall make thee fall H3782 before H6440 L-CMP the enemy H341 VQPMS : for H3588 CONJ God H430 hath H3426 ADV power H3581 CMS to help H5826 , and to cast down H3782 .
9 And Amaziah H558 said H559 W-VQY3MS to the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-EDP , But what H4100 shall we do H6213 for the hundred H3967 talents H3603 D-NFS which H834 RPRO I have given H5414 VQQ1MS to the army H1416 of Israel H3478 ? And the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-NAME-4MP answered H559 W-VQY3MS , The LORD H3068 L-EDS is H3426 PART able to give H5414 thee much more H7235 VHFA than this H2088 .
10 Then Amaziah H558 separated H914 them , to wit , the army H1416 that H834 RPRO was come H935 VQPMS to H413 PREP-3MS him out of Ephraim H669 , to go H1980 L-VQFC home H4725 again : wherefore their anger H639 was greatly H3966 ADV kindled H2734 W-VQY3MS against Judah H3063 , and they returned H7725 home H4725 in great H2750 anger H639 NMS .
11 And Amaziah H558 strengthened himself H2388 , and led forth his people H5971 , and went H1980 W-VQY3MS to the valley H1516 of salt H4417 , and smote H5221 W-VHY3MS of the children H1121 of Seir H8165 LFS ten H6235 thousand H505 .
12 And other ten H6235 thousand H505 MMP left alive H2416 NMP did the children H1121 of Judah H3063 carry away captive H7617 , and brought H935 them unto the top H7218 of the rock H5553 , and cast them down H7993 from the top H7218 of the rock H5553 , that they all H3605 were broken in pieces H1234 .
13 But the soldiers H1121 W-CMP of the army H1416 which H834 RPRO Amaziah H558 sent back H7725 VHQ3MS , that they should not go H1980 with H5973 PREP-3MS him to battle H4421 , fell upon H6584 W-VQY3MP the cities H5892 B-CFP of Judah H3063 , from Samaria H8111 even unto H5704 W-PREP Beth H1032 - horon , and smote H5221 W-VHY3MP three H7969 BMS thousand H505 MMP of H4480 them , and took H962 much H7227 AFS spoil H961 .
14 Now it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , after that H310 PREP Amaziah H558 was come H935 from the slaughter H5221 of the Edomites H130 , that he brought H935 W-VHY3MS the gods H430 CDP of the children H1121 of Seir H8165 LFS , and set them up H5975 to be his gods H430 , and bowed down himself H7812 before H6440 them , and burned incense H6999 unto them .
15 Wherefore the anger H639 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS was kindled H2734 against Amaziah H558 , and he sent H7971 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him a prophet H5030 , which said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , Why H4100 L-IPRO hast thou sought after H1875 the gods H430 CDP of the people H5971 , which H834 RPRO could not H3808 NADV deliver H5337 their own people H5971 out of thine hand H3027 GFS-2MS ?
16 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , as he talked H1696 with H413 PREP-3MS him , that the king said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , Art thou made H5414 of the king H4428 \'s counsel H3289 ? forbear H2308 VQI2MS ; why H4100 L-IPRO shouldest thou be smitten H5221 ? Then the prophet H5030 forbore H2308 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , I know H3045 VQY1MS that H3588 CONJ God H430 EDP hath determined H3289 to destroy H7843 thee , because H3588 CONJ thou hast done H6213 VQQ2MS this H2063 DPRO-3FS , and hast not H3808 W-NPAR hearkened H8085 VQQ2MS unto my counsel H6098 .
17 Then Amaziah H558 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 took advice H3289 , and sent H7971 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Joash H3101 , the son H1121 of Jehoahaz H3059 , the son H1121 of Jehu H3058 , king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Come H1980 , let us see one another H7200 in the face H6440 .
18 And Joash H3101 king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 sent H7971 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Amaziah H558 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 , saying H559 L-VQFC , The thistle H2336 that H834 RPRO was in Lebanon H3844 sent H7971 VQQ3MS to H413 PREP the cedar H730 that H834 RPRO was in Lebanon H3844 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Give H5414 thy daughter H1323 to my son H1121 to wife H802 L-NFS : and there passed by H5674 a wild H7704 D-NMS beast H2416 CFS that H834 RPRO was in Lebanon H3844 , and trod down H7429 the thistle H2336 .
19 Thou sayest H559 VQQ2MS , Lo H2009 IJEC , thou hast smitten H5221 the Edomites H123 ; and thine heart H3820 CMS-2MS lifteth thee up H5375 to boast H3513 : abide H3427 now H6258 ADV at home H1004 ; why H4100 L-IPRO shouldest thou meddle H1624 to thine hurt H7451 , that thou shouldest fall H5307 , even thou H859 PPRO-2MS , and Judah H3063 with H5973 PREP-2FS thee ?
20 But Amaziah H558 would not H3808 W-NPAR hear H8085 ; for H3588 CONJ it H1931 PPRO-3FS came of God H430 , that H4616 L-CONJ he might deliver H5414 them into the hand H3027 of their enemies , because H3588 CONJ they sought after H1875 the gods H430 CDP of Edom H123 .
21 So Joash H3101 the king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 went up H5927 W-VHY3MS ; and they saw one another H7200 in the face H6440 NMP , both he H1931 PPRO-3MS and Amaziah H558 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 , at Beth H1053 - shemesh , which H834 RPRO belongeth to Judah H3063 .
22 And Judah H3063 was put to the worse H5062 before H6440 L-CMP Israel H3478 , and they fled H5127 W-VQY3MP every man H376 NMS to his tent H168 .
23 And Joash H3101 the king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 took H8610 Amaziah H558 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 , the son H1121 of Joash H3101 , the son H1121 of Jehoahaz H3059 , at Beth H1053 - shemesh , and brought H935 him to Jerusalem H3389 , and broke down H6555 the wall H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 from the gate H8179 of Ephraim H669 to H5704 PREP the corner H6438 gate H8179 NMS , four H702 MFS hundred H3967 BFP cubits H520 .
24 And he took all H3605 NMS the gold H2091 and the silver H3701 , and all H3605 NMS the vessels H3627 D-NMP that were found H4672 in the house H1004 B-CMS of God H430 D-EDP with H5973 PREP Obed H5654 - edom , and the treasures H214 CMP of the king H4428 D-NMS \'s house H1004 CMS , the hostages H1121 also , and returned H7725 to Samaria H8111 .
25 And Amaziah H558 the son H1121 CMS of Joash H3101 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 lived H2421 W-VQY3MS after H310 PREP the death H4194 of Joash H3101 son H1121 CMS of Jehoahaz H3059 king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 fifteen H2568 BFS years H8141 NFS .
26 Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 CMP of Amaziah H558 , first H7223 and last H314 , behold H2009 , are they not H3808 I-NADV written H3789 in H5921 PREP the book H5612 CMS of the kings H4428 CMP of Judah H3063 and Israel H3478 ?
27 Now after the time H6256 that H834 RPRO Amaziah H558 did turn away H5493 from following H310 the LORD H3068 EDS they made H7194 a conspiracy H7195 against H5921 PREP-3MS him in Jerusalem H3389 ; and he fled H5127 to Lachish H3923 : but they sent H7971 to Lachish H3923 after H310 PREP-3MS him , and slew H4191 him there H8033 ADV .
28 And they brought H5375 him upon H5921 PREP horses H5483 , and buried H6912 him with H5973 PREP his fathers H1 in the city H5892 of Judah H3063 .
