1
In the second
year
of Joash
son
of Joahaz
king
of Israel,
Amaziah
the
son
of Joash
king
of Judah
became
king
.
2
He was twenty-five
years
old
when he became
king, and he reigned
twenty-nine
years
in Jerusalem.
And his mother's
name
was Jehoaddin
of Jerusalem.
3
He did
right
in the sight
of the LORD,
yet
not like David
his father
;
he did
according to all
that Joash
his father
had
done.
4
Only
the high
places
were not taken away;
the people
still
sacrificed
and burned incense
on
the high
places
.
5
Now it came
about, as soon
as
the king
dom
was firmly
in his hand,
that he killed
his servants
who had slain
the king
his father.
6
But
the sons
of the slayers
he did not put
to death
,
according to what is written
in the book
of the Law
of Moses,
as the LORD
commanded,
saying,
"The fathers
shall not be put
to death
for
the sons
,
nor
the sons
be put
to death
for the fathers;
but each
shall
be put
to death
for his own sin."
7
He killed
of Edom
in the Valley
of Salt
10,000
and took
Sela
by war,
and named
it Joktheel
to this
day.
8
Then
Amaziah
sent
messengers
to Jehoash,
the
son
of Jehoahaz
son
of Jehu,
king
of Israel,
saying,
"Come,
let us face
each other."
9
Jehoash
king
of Israel
sent
to Amaziah
king
of Judah,
saying,
"The thorn
bush
which
was in Lebanon
sent
to the cedar
which
was in Lebanon
,
saying,
'Give
your daughter
to my son
in marriage.'
But there passed
by a wild
beast
that
was in Lebanon
,
and trampled
the thorn
bush
.
10
"You have indeed
defeated
Edom,
and your heart
has become proud.
Enjoy your glory
and stay
at home;
for why
should you provoke
trouble
so that you, even you, would fall,
and Judah
with you?"
11
But Amaziah
would not listen.
So Jehoash
king
of Israel
went
up; and he and Amaziah
king
of Judah
faced
each other at Beth-shemesh,
which
belongs to Judah.
12
Judah
was defeated
by Israel,
and they fled
each
to his tent.
13
Then Jehoash
king
of Israel
captured
Amaziah
king
of Judah,
the son
of Jehoash
the son
of Ahaziah,
at Beth-shemesh,
and came
to Jerusalem
and tore down
the wall
of Jerusalem
from the Gate
of Ephraim
to the Corner
Gate,
400
cubits.
14
He took
all
the gold
and silver
and
all
the utensils
which were found
in the house
of the LORD,
and in the treasuries
of the king's
house,
the hostages
also, and returned
to Samaria.
15
Now the rest
of the acts
of Jehoash
which
he did,
and his might
and how
he fought
with Amaziah
king
of Judah,
are they not written
in the Book
of the Chronicles
of the Kings
of Israel?
16
So Jehoash
slept
with his fathers
and was buried
in Samaria
with the kings
of Israel;
and Jeroboam
his son
became king
in his place.
17
Amaziah
the
son
of Joash
king
of Judah
lived
fifteen
years
after
the death
of Jehoash
son
of Jehoahaz
king
of Israel.
18
Now the rest
of the acts
of Amaziah,
are they not written
in the Book
of the Chronicles
of the Kings
of Judah?
19
They conspired
against
him in Jerusalem,
and he fled
to Lachish;
but they sent
after
him to Lachish
and killed
him there.
20
Then they brought
him on horses
and he was buried
at Jerusalem
with his fathers
in the city
of David.
21
All
the people
of Judah
took
Azariah,
who
was sixteen
years
old,
and made him king
in the place
of his father
Amaziah.
22
He built
Elath
and restored
it to Judah
after
the king
slept
with his fathers.
23
In the fifteenth
year
of Amaziah
the son
of Joash
king
of Judah,
Jeroboam
the son
of Joash
king
of Israel
became
king
in Samaria,
and reigned forty-one
years.
24
He did
evil
in the sight
of the LORD;
he did not depart
from all
the sins
of Jeroboam
the son
of Nebat,
which
he made Israel
sin.
25
He restored
the border
of Israel
from the entrance
of Hamath
as far
as the Sea
of the Arabah,
according to the word
of the LORD,
the God
of Israel
,
which
He spoke
through
His servant
Jonah
the son
of Amittai,
the prophet,
who
was of Gath-hepher.
26
For the LORD
saw
the affliction
of Israel,
which was very
bitter;
for there was neither
bond
nor
free,
nor
was there
any helper
for Israel.
27
The LORD
did not say
that He would blot
out the name
of Israel
from under
heaven,
but He saved
them by the hand
of Jeroboam
the son
of Joash.
28
Now the rest
of the acts
of Jeroboam
and all
that he did
and his might,
how
he fought
and
how
he recovered
for Israel,
Damascus
and Hamath,
which had belonged to Judah,
are they not written
in the Book
of the Chronicles
of the Kings
of Israel?
29
And Jeroboam
slept
with his fathers,
even with the kings
of Israel,
and Zechariah
his son
became king
in his place.
