2 Kings 16

KJV

1  In the seventeenth^{7651 6240} year⁸¹⁴¹ of Pekah⁶⁴⁹² the son¹¹²¹ of Remaliah⁷⁴²⁵ Ahaz²⁷¹ the son¹¹²¹ of Jotham³¹⁴⁷ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Judah³⁰⁶³ began to reign.⁴⁴²⁷

2  Twenty⁶²⁴² years⁸¹⁴¹ old¹¹²¹ was Ahaz²⁷¹ when he began to reign,⁴⁴²⁷ and reigned⁴⁴²⁷ sixteen^{8337 6240} years⁸¹⁴¹ in Jerusalem,³³⁸⁹ and did⁶²¹³ not³⁸⁰⁸ that which was right³⁴⁷⁷ in the sight⁵⁸⁶⁹ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ his God,⁴³⁰ like David¹⁷³² his father.¹

3  But he walked¹⁹⁸⁰ in the way¹⁸⁷⁰ of the kings⁴⁴²⁸ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ yea,¹⁵⁷¹ and made ⁸⁵³ his son¹¹²¹ to pass through⁵⁶⁷⁴ the fire,⁷⁸⁴ according to the abominations⁸⁴⁴¹ of the heathen,¹⁴⁷¹ whom^{834 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ cast out³⁴²³ from before^{4480 6440} the children¹¹²¹ of Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

4  And he sacrificed²⁰⁷⁶ and burnt incense⁶⁹⁹⁹ in the high places,¹¹¹⁶ and on⁵⁹²¹ the hills,¹³⁸⁹ and under⁸⁴⁷⁸ every³⁶⁰⁵ green⁷⁴⁸⁸ tree.⁶⁰⁸⁶

5  Then²²⁷ Rezin⁷⁵²⁶ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Syria⁷⁵⁸ and Pekah⁶⁴⁹² son¹¹²¹ of Remaliah⁷⁴²⁵ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ came up⁵⁹²⁷ to Jerusalem³³⁸⁹ to war:⁴⁴²¹ and they besieged^{6696 5921} Ahaz,²⁷¹ but could³²⁰¹ not³⁸⁰⁸ overcome³⁸⁹⁸ him.

6  At that¹⁹³¹ time⁶²⁵⁶ Rezin⁷⁵²⁶ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Syria⁷⁵⁸ recovered^{7725 853} Elath³⁵⁹ to Syria,⁷⁵⁸ and drove^{5394 853} the Jews³⁰⁶⁴ from Elath:^{4480 359} and the Syrians⁷²⁶ came⁹³⁵ to Elath,³⁵⁹ and dwelt³⁴²⁷ there⁸⁰³³ unto⁵⁷⁰⁴ this²⁰⁸⁸ day.³¹¹⁷

7  So Ahaz²⁷¹ sent⁷⁹⁷¹ messengers⁴³⁹⁷ to⁴¹³ Tiglathpileser⁸⁴⁰⁷ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Assyria,⁸⁰⁴ saying,⁵⁵⁹ I⁵⁸⁹ am thy servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ and thy son:¹¹²¹ come up,⁵⁹²⁷ and save³⁴⁶⁷ me out of the hand^{4480 3709} of the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Syria,⁷⁵⁸ and out of the hand^{4480 3709} of the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ which rise up⁶⁹⁶⁵ against⁵⁹²¹ me.

8  And Ahaz²⁷¹ took^{3947 853} the silver³⁷⁰¹ and gold²⁰⁹¹ that was found⁴⁶⁷² in the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and in the treasures²¹⁴ of the king's⁴⁴²⁸ house,¹⁰⁰⁴ and sent⁷⁹⁷¹ it for a present⁷⁸¹⁰ to the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Assyria.⁸⁰⁴

9  And the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Assyria⁸⁰⁴ hearkened⁸⁰⁸⁵ unto⁴¹³ him: for the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Assyria⁸⁰⁴ went up⁵⁹²⁷ against⁴¹³ Damascus,¹⁸³⁴ and took⁸⁶¹⁰ it, and carried the people of it captive¹⁵⁴⁰ to Kir,⁷⁰²⁴ and slew⁴¹⁹¹ Rezin.⁷⁵²⁶

10  And king⁴⁴²⁸ Ahaz²⁷¹ went¹⁹⁸⁰ to Damascus¹⁸³⁴ to meet⁷¹²² Tiglathpileser⁸⁴⁰⁷ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Assyria,⁸⁰⁴ and saw^{7200 853} an altar⁴¹⁹⁶ that⁸³⁴ was at Damascus:¹⁸³⁴ and king⁴⁴²⁸ Ahaz²⁷¹ sent⁷⁹⁷¹ to⁴¹³ Urijah²²³ the priest^{3548 853} the fashion¹⁸²³ of the altar,⁴¹⁹⁶ and the pattern⁸⁴⁰³ of it, according to all³⁶⁰⁵ the workmanship⁴⁶³⁹ thereof.

11  And Urijah²²³ the priest³⁵⁴⁸ built^{1129 853} an altar⁴¹⁹⁶ according to all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ king⁴⁴²⁸ Ahaz²⁷¹ had sent⁷⁹⁷¹ from Damascus:^{4480 1834} so³⁶⁵¹ Urijah²²³ the priest³⁵⁴⁸ made⁶²¹³ it against⁵⁷⁰⁴ king⁴⁴²⁸ Ahaz²⁷¹ came⁹³⁵ from Damascus.^{4480 1834}

12  And when the king⁴⁴²⁸ was come⁹³⁵ from Damascus,^{4480 1834} the king⁴⁴²⁸ saw^{7200 853} the altar:⁴¹⁹⁶ and the king⁴⁴²⁸ approached⁷¹²⁶ to⁵⁹²¹ the altar,⁴¹⁹⁶ and offered⁵⁹²⁷ thereon.⁵⁹²¹

13  And he burnt^{6999 853} his burnt offering⁵⁹³⁰ and his meat offering,⁴⁵⁰³ and poured^{5258 853} his drink offering,⁵²⁶² and sprinkled^{2236 853} the blood¹⁸¹⁸ of his⁸³⁴ peace offerings,⁸⁰⁰² upon⁵⁹²¹ the altar.⁴¹⁹⁶

14  And he brought⁷¹²⁶ also the brazen⁵¹⁷⁸ altar,⁴¹⁹⁶ which⁸³⁴ was before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ from^{4480 854} the forefront⁶⁴⁴⁰ of the house,¹⁰⁰⁴ from between^{4480 996} the altar⁴¹⁹⁶ and the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and put⁵⁴¹⁴ it on⁵⁹²¹ the north⁶⁸²⁸ side³⁴⁰⁹ of the altar.⁴¹⁹⁶

15  And king⁴⁴²⁸ Ahaz²⁷¹ commanded^{6680 853} Urijah²²³ the priest,³⁵⁴⁸ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Upon⁵⁹²¹ the great¹⁴¹⁹ altar⁴¹⁹⁶ burn^{6999 853} the morning¹²⁴² burnt offering,⁵⁹³⁰ and the evening⁶¹⁵³ meat offering,⁴⁵⁰³ and the king's⁴⁴²⁸ burnt sacrifice,⁵⁹³⁰ and his meat offering,⁴⁵⁰³ with the burnt offering⁵⁹³⁰ of all³⁶⁰⁵ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ of the land,⁷⁷⁶ and their meat offering,⁴⁵⁰³ and their drink offerings;⁵²⁶² and sprinkle²²³⁶ upon⁵⁹²¹ it all³⁶⁰⁵ the blood¹⁸¹⁸ of the burnt offering,⁵⁹³⁰ and all³⁶⁰⁵ the blood¹⁸¹⁸ of the sacrifice:²⁰⁷⁷ and the brazen⁵¹⁷⁸ altar⁴¹⁹⁶ shall be¹⁹⁶¹ for me to inquire¹²³⁹ by.

16  Thus did⁶²¹³ Urijah²²³ the priest,³⁵⁴⁸ according to all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ king⁴⁴²⁸ Ahaz²⁷¹ commanded.⁶⁶⁸⁰

17  And king⁴⁴²⁸ Ahaz²⁷¹ cut off^{7112 853} the borders⁴⁵²⁶ of the bases,⁴³⁵⁰ and removed⁵⁴⁹³ the laver³⁵⁹⁵ from off^{4480 5921} them; and took down³³⁸¹ the sea³²²⁰ from off^{4480 5921} the brazen⁵¹⁷⁸ oxen¹²⁴¹ that⁸³⁴ were under⁸⁴⁷⁸ it, and put⁵⁴¹⁴ it upon⁵⁹²¹ a pavement⁴⁸³⁷ of stones.⁶⁸

18  And the covert⁴³²⁹ for the sabbath⁷⁶⁷⁶ that⁸³⁴ they had built¹¹²⁹ in the house,¹⁰⁰⁴ and the king's⁴⁴²⁸ entry³⁹⁹⁶ without,²⁴³⁵ turned⁵⁴³⁷ he from the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ for^{4480 6440} the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Assyria.⁸⁰⁴

19  Now the rest³⁴⁹⁹ of the acts¹⁶⁹⁷ of Ahaz²⁷¹ which⁸³⁴ he did,⁶²¹³ are they¹⁹⁹² not³⁸⁰⁸ written³⁷⁸⁹ in⁵⁹²¹ the book⁵⁶¹² of the chronicles^{1697 3117} of the kings⁴⁴²⁸ of Judah?³⁰⁶³

20  And Ahaz²⁷¹ slept⁷⁹⁰¹ with⁵⁹⁷³ his fathers,¹ and was buried⁶⁹¹² with⁵⁹⁷³ his fathers¹ in the city⁵⁸⁹² of David:¹⁷³² and Hezekiah²³⁹⁶ his son¹¹²¹ reigned⁴⁴²⁷ in his stead.⁸⁴⁷⁸

1 ἐν ἔτει ἑπτακαιδεκάτῳ Φακεε υἱοῦ Ρομελιου ἐβασίλευσεν Αχαζ υἱὸς Ιωαθαμ βασιλέως Ιουδα

2 υἱὸς εἴκοσι ἐτῶν ἦν Αχαζ ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν καὶ ἑκκαίδεκα ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ καὶ οὐκ ἐποίησεν τὸ εὐθὲς ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς κυρίου θεοῦ αὐτοῦ πιστῶς ὡς Δαυιδ ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ

3 καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ βασιλέως Ισραηλ καί γε τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ διῆγεν ἐν πυρὶ κατὰ τὰ βδελύγματα τῶν ἐθνῶν ὧν ἐξῆρεν κύριος ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ

4 καὶ ἐθυσίαζεν καὶ ἐθυμία ἐν τοῖς ὑψηλοῖς καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν βουνῶν καὶ ὑποκάτω παντὸς ξύλου ἀλσώδους

5 τότε ἀνέβη Ραασσων βασιλεὺς Συρίας καὶ Φακεε υἱὸς Ρομελιου βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ εἰς Ιερουσαλημ εἰς πόλεμον καὶ ἐπολιόρκουν ἐπὶ Αχαζ καὶ οὐκ ἐδύναντο πολεμεῖν

6 ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἐπέστρεψεν Ραασσων βασιλεὺς Συρίας τὴν Αιλαθ τῇ Συρίᾳ καὶ ἐξέβαλεν τοὺς Ιουδαίους ἐξ Αιλαθ καὶ Ιδουμαῖοι ἦλθον εἰς Αιλαθ καὶ κατῴκησαν ἐκεῖ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης

7 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Αχαζ ἀγγέλους πρὸς Θαγλαθφελλασαρ βασιλέα Ἀσσυρίων λέγων δοῦλός σου καὶ υἱός σου ἐγώ ἀνάβηθι καὶ σῶσόν με ἐκ χειρὸς βασιλέως Συρίας καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς βασιλέως Ισραηλ τῶν ἐπανισταμένων ἐπ᾽ ἐμέ

8 καὶ ἔλαβεν Αχαζ τὸ ἀργύριον καὶ τὸ χρυσίον τὸ εὑρεθὲν ἐν θησαυροῖς οἴκου κυρίου καὶ οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τῷ βασιλεῖ δῶρα

9 καὶ ἤκουσεν αὐτοῦ βασιλεὺς Ἀσσυρίων καὶ ἀνέβη βασιλεὺς Ἀσσυρίων εἰς Δαμασκὸν καὶ συνέλαβεν αὐτὴν καὶ ἀπῴκισεν αὐτὴν καὶ τὸν Ραασσων ἐθανάτωσεν

10 καὶ ἐπορεύθη βασιλεὺς Αχαζ εἰς ἀπαντὴν τῷ Θαγλαθφελλασαρ βασιλεῖ Ἀσσυρίων εἰς Δαμασκόν καὶ εἶδεν τὸ θυσιαστήριον ἐν Δαμασκῷ καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Αχαζ πρὸς Ουριαν τὸν ἱερέα τὸ ὁμοίωμα τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ τὸν ῥυθμὸν αὐτοῦ εἰς πᾶσαν ποίησιν αὐτοῦ

11 καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν Ουριας ὁ ἱερεὺς τὸ θυσιαστήριον κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Αχαζ ἐκ Δαμασκοῦ

12 καὶ εἶδεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ ἀνέβη ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸ

13 καὶ ἐθυμίασεν τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν θυσίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν σπονδὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ προσέχεεν τὸ αἷμα τῶν εἰρηνικῶν τῶν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον

14 καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χαλκοῦν τὸ ἀπέναντι κυρίου καὶ προσήγαγεν ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ οἴκου κυρίου ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ οἴκου κυρίου καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸ ἐπὶ μηρὸν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου κατὰ βορρᾶν

15 καὶ ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεὺς Αχαζ τῷ Ουρια τῷ ἱερεῖ λέγων ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ μέγα πρόσφερε τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν τὴν πρωινὴν καὶ τὴν θυσίαν τὴν ἑσπερινὴν καὶ τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ τὴν θυσίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ τὴν θυσίαν αὐτῶν καὶ τὴν σπονδὴν αὐτῶν καὶ πᾶν αἷμα ὁλοκαυτώσεως καὶ πᾶν αἷμα θυσίας ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸ προσχεεῖς καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χαλκοῦν ἔσται μοι εἰς τὸ πρωί

16 καὶ ἐποίησεν Ουριας ὁ ἱερεὺς κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεὺς Αχαζ

17 καὶ συνέκοψεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Αχαζ τὰ συγκλείσματα τῶν μεχωνωθ καὶ μετῆρεν ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν τὸν λουτῆρα καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν καθεῖλεν ἀπὸ τῶν βοῶν τῶν χαλκῶν τῶν ὑποκάτω αὐτῆς καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν ἐπὶ βάσιν λιθίνην

18 καὶ τὸν θεμέλιον τῆς καθέδρας ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου καὶ τὴν εἴσοδον τοῦ βασιλέως τὴν ἔξω ἐπέστρεψεν ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου ἀπὸ προσώπου βασιλέως Ἀσσυρίων

19 καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Αχαζ ὅσα ἐποίησεν οὐχὶ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ιουδα

20 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Αχαζ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν πόλει Δαυιδ καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Εζεκιας υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾽ αὐτοῦ

1 Anno decimoseptimo Phacee filii Romeliæ, regnavit Achaz filius Joatham regis Juda.

2 Viginti annorum erat Achaz cum regnare cœpisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Jerusalem. Non fecit quod erat placitum in conspectu Domini Dei sui sicut David pater ejus,

3 sed ambulavit in via regum Israël: insuper et filium suum consecravit, transferens per ignem secundum idola gentium, quæ dissipavit Dominus coram filiis Israël.

4 Immolabat quoque victimas, et adolebat incensum in excelsis, et in collibus, et sub omni ligno frondoso.

5 Tunc ascendit Rasin rex Syriæ, et Phacee filius Romeliæ rex Israël, in Jerusalem ad præliandum: cumque obsiderent Achaz, non valuerunt superare eum.

6 In tempore illo restituit Rasin rex Syriæ, Ailam Syriæ, et ejecit Judæos de Aila: et Idumæi venerunt in Ailam, et habitaverunt ibi usque in diem hanc.

7 Misit autem Achaz nuntios ad Theglathphalasar regem Assyriorum, dicens: Servus tuus, et filius tuus ego sum: ascende, et salvum me fac de manu regis Syriæ, et de manu regis Israël, qui consurrexerunt adversum me.

8 Et cum collegisset argentum et aurum quod inveniri potuit in domo Domini et in thesauris regis, misit regi Assyriorum munera.

9 Qui et acquievit voluntati ejus: ascendit enim rex Assyriorum in Damascum, et vastavit eam, et transtulit habitatores ejus Cyrenen: Rasin autem interfecit.

10 Perrexitque rex Achaz in occursum Theglathphalasar regis Assyriorum in Damascum: cumque vidisset altare Damasci, misit rex Achaz ad Uriam sacerdotem exemplar ejus, et similitudinem juxta omne opus ejus.

11 Exstruxitque Urias sacerdos altare: juxta omnia quæ præceperat rex Achaz de Damasco, ita fecit sacerdos Urias donec veniret rex Achaz de Damasco.

12 Cumque venisset rex de Damasco, vidit altare, et veneratus est illud: ascenditque et immolavit holocausta et sacrificium suum,

13 et libavit libamina, et fudit sanguinem pacificorum quæ obtulerat super altare.

14 Porro altare æreum quod erat coram Domino, transtulit de facie templi, et de loco altaris, et de loco templi Domini: posuitque illud ex latere altaris ad aquilonem.

15 Præcepit quoque rex Achaz Uriæ sacerdoti, dicens: Super altare majus offer holocaustum matutinum, et sacrificium vespertinum, et holocaustum regis, et sacrificium ejus, et holocaustum universi populi terræ, et sacrificia eorum, et libamina eorum: et omnem sanguinem holocausti, et universum sanguinem victimæ super illud effundes: altare vero æreum erit paratum ad voluntatem meam.

16 Fecit igitur Urias sacerdos juxta omnia quæ præceperat rex Achaz.

17 Tulit autem rex Achaz cælatas bases, et luterem qui erat desuper: et mare deposuit de bobus æreis qui sustentabant illud, et posuit super pavimentum stratum lapide.

18 Musach quoque sabbati quod ædificaverat in templo: et ingressum regis exterius convertit in templum Domini propter regem Assyriorum.

19 Reliqua autem verborum Achaz quæ fecit, nonne hæc scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Juda?

20 Dormivitque Achaz cum patribus suis, et sepultus est cum eis in civitate David: et regnavit Ezechias filius ejus pro eo.
