1
Amaziah [0558] [was] twenty [6242] and five [2568] years [8141] old [1121] [when] he began to reign, [4427] and he reigned [4427] twenty [6242] and nine [8672] years [8141] in Jerusalem. [3389] And his mother's [0517] name [8034] [was] Jehoaddan [3086] of Jerusalem. [3389]
2
And he did [6213] [that which was] right [3477] in the sight [5869] of the LORD, [3068] but not with a perfect [8003] heart. [3824]
3
Now it came to pass, when the kingdom [4467] was established [2388] to him, that he slew [2026] his servants [5650] that had killed [5221] the king [4428] his father. [0001]
4
But he slew [4191] not their children, [1121] but [did] as [it is] written [3789] in the law [8451] in the book [5612] of Moses, [4872] where the LORD [3068] commanded, [6680] saying, [0559] The fathers [0001] shall not die [4191] for the children, [1121] neither shall the children [1121] die [4191] for the fathers, [0001] but every man [0376] shall die [4191] for his own sin. [2399]
5
Moreover Amaziah [0558] gathered Judah [3063] together, [6908] and made [5975] them captains [8269] over thousands, [0505] and captains [8269] over hundreds, [3967] according to the houses [1004] of [their] fathers, [0001] throughout all Judah [3063] and Benjamin: [1144] and he numbered [6485] them from twenty [6242] years [8141] old [1121] and above, [4605] and found [4672] them three [7969] hundred [3967] thousand [0505] choice [0977] [men, able] to go forth [3318] to war, [6635] that could handle [0270] spear [7420] and shield. [6793]
6
He hired [7936] also an hundred [3967] thousand [0505] mighty men [1368] of valour [2428] out of Israel [3478] for an hundred [3967] talents [3603] of silver. [3701]
7
But there came [0935] a man [0376] of God [0430] to him, saying, [0559] O king, [4428] let not the army [6635] of Israel [3478] go [0935] with thee; for the LORD [3068] [is] not with Israel, [3478] [to wit, with] all the children [1121] of Ephraim. [0669]
8
But if thou wilt go, [0935] do [6213] [it], be strong [2388] for the battle: [4421] God [0430] shall make thee fall [3782] before [6440] the enemy: [0341] for God [0430] hath [3426] power [3581] to help, [5826] and to cast down. [3782]
9
And Amaziah [0558] said [0559] to the man [0376] of God, [0430] But what shall we do [6213] for the hundred [3967] talents [3603] which I have given [5414] to the army [1416] of Israel? [3478] And the man [0376] of God [0430] answered, [0559] The LORD [3068] is [3426] able to give [5414] thee much more [7235] than this.
10
Then Amaziah [0558] separated [0914] them, [to wit], the army [1416] that was come [0935] to him out of Ephraim, [0669] to go [3212] home [4725] again: wherefore their anger [0639] was greatly [3966] kindled [2734] against Judah, [3063] and they returned [7725] home [4725] in great [2750] anger. [0639]
11
And Amaziah [0558] strengthened [2388] himself, and led forth [5090] his people, [5971] and went [3212] to the valley [1516] of salt, [4417] and smote [5221] of the children [1121] of Seir [8165] ten [6235] thousand. [0505]
12
And [other] ten [6235] thousand [0505] [left] alive [2416] did the children [1121] of Judah [3063] carry away captive, [7617] and brought [0935] them unto the top [7218] of the rock, [5553] and cast them down [7993] from the top [7218] of the rock, [5553] that they all were broken in pieces. [1234]
13
But the soldiers [1121] of the army [1416] which Amaziah [0558] sent back, [7725] that they should not go [3212] with him to battle, [4421] fell [6584] upon the cities [5892] of Judah, [3063] from Samaria [8111] even unto Bethhoron, [1032] and smote [5221] three [7969] thousand [0505] of them, and took [0962] much [7227] spoil. [0961]
14
Now it came to pass, after [0310] that Amaziah [0558] was come [0935] from the slaughter [5221] of the Edomites, [0130] that he brought [0935] the gods [0430] of the children [1121] of Seir, [8165] and set them up [5975] [to be] his gods, [0430] and bowed down [7812] himself before [6440] them, and burned incense [6999] unto them.
15
Wherefore the anger [0639] of the LORD [3068] was kindled [2734] against Amaziah, [0558] and he sent [7971] unto him a prophet, [5030] which said [0559] unto him, Why hast thou sought [1875] after the gods [0430] of the people, [5971] which could not deliver [5337] their own people [5971] out of thine hand? [3027]
16
And it came to pass, as he talked [1696] with him, that [the king] said [0559] unto him, Art thou made [5414] of the king's [4428] counsel? [3289] forbear; [2308] why shouldest thou be smitten? [5221] Then the prophet [5030] forbare, [2308] and said, [0559] I know [3045] that God [0430] hath determined [3289] to destroy [7843] thee, because thou hast done [6213] this, and hast not hearkened [8085] unto my counsel. [6098]
17
Then Amaziah [0558] king [4428] of Judah [3063] took advice, [3289] and sent [7971] to Joash, [3101] the son [1121] of Jehoahaz, [3059] the son [1121] of Jehu, [3058] king [4428] of Israel, [3478] saying, [0559] Come, [3212] let us see [7200] one another in the face. [6440]
18
And Joash [3101] king [4428] of Israel [3478] sent [7971] to Amaziah [0558] king [4428] of Judah, [3063] saying, [0559] The thistle [2336] that [was] in Lebanon [3844] sent [7971] to the cedar [0730] that [was] in Lebanon, [3844] saying, [0559] Give [5414] thy daughter [1323] to my son [1121] to wife: [0802] and there passed by [5674] a wild [7704] beast [2416] that [was] in Lebanon, [3844] and trode down [7429] the thistle. [2336]
19
Thou sayest, [0559] Lo, thou hast smitten [5221] the Edomites; [0123] and thine heart [3820] lifteth thee up [5375] to boast: [3513] abide [3427] now at home; [1004] why shouldest thou meddle [1624] to [thine] hurt, [7451] that thou shouldest fall, [5307] [even] thou, and Judah [3063] with thee?
20
But Amaziah [0558] would not hear; [8085] for it [came] of God, [0430] that he might deliver [5414] them into the hand [3027] [of their enemies], because they sought [1875] after the gods [0430] of Edom. [0123]
21
So Joash [3101] the king [4428] of Israel [3478] went up; [5927] and they saw [7200] one another in the face, [6440] [both] he and Amaziah [0558] king [4428] of Judah, [3063] at Bethshemesh, [1053] which [belongeth] to Judah. [3063]
22
And Judah [3063] was put to the worse [5062] before [6440] Israel, [3478] and they fled [5127] every man [0376] to his tent. [0168]
23
And Joash [3101] the king [4428] of Israel [3478] took [8610] Amaziah [0558] king [4428] of Judah, [3063] the son [1121] of Joash, [3101] the son [1121] of Jehoahaz, [3059] at Bethshemesh, [1053] and brought [0935] him to Jerusalem, [3389] and brake down [6555] the wall [2346] of Jerusalem [3389] from the gate [8179] of Ephraim [0669] to the corner [6437] gate, [8179] four [0702] hundred [3967] cubits. [0520]
24
And [he took] all the gold [2091] and the silver, [3701] and all the vessels [3627] that were found [4672] in the house [1004] of God [0430] with Obededom, [5654] and the treasures [0214] of the king's [4428] house, [1004] the hostages [1121] [8594] also, and returned [7725] to Samaria. [8111]
25
And Amaziah [0558] the son [1121] of Joash [3101] king [4428] of Judah [3063] lived [2421] after [0310] the death [4194] of Joash [3101] son [1121] of Jehoahaz [3059] king [4428] of Israel [3478] fifteen [2568] [6240] years. [8141]
26
Now the rest [3499] of the acts [1697] of Amaziah, [0558] first [7223] and last, [0314] behold, [are] they not written [3789] in the book [5612] of the kings [4428] of Judah [3063] and Israel? [3478]
27
Now after the time [6256] that Amaziah [0558] did turn away [5493] from following [0310] the LORD [3068] they made [7194] a conspiracy [7195] against him in Jerusalem; [3389] and he fled [5127] to Lachish: [3923] but they sent [7971] to Lachish [3923] after [0310] him, and slew [4191] him there.
28
And they brought [5375] him upon horses, [5483] and buried [6912] him with his fathers [0001] in the city [5892] of Judah. [3063]
