2 Chronicles 24:16-27

24:16

And they buried
<06912> (8799)

him in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>

among the kings
<04428>_,

because he had done
<06213> (8804)

good
<02896>

in Israel
<03478>_,

both toward God
<0430>_,

and toward his house
<01004>_.

24:17

Now after
<0310>

the death
<04194>

of Jehoiada
<03077>

came
<0935> (8804)

the princes
<08269>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and made obeisance
<07812> (8691)

to the king
<04428>_.

Then the king
<04428>

hearkened
<08085> (8804)

unto them.

24:18

And they left
<05800> (8799)

the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of their fathers
<01>_,

and served
<05647> (8799)

groves
<0842>

and idols
<06091>_:

and wrath
<07110>

came upon Judah
<03063>

and Jerusalem
<03389>

for this their trespass
<0819>_.

24:19

Yet he sent
<07971> (8799)

prophets
<05030>

to them, to bring them again
<07725> (8687)

unto the LORD
<03068>_;

and they testified
<05749> (8686)

against them: but they would not give ear
<0238> (8689)_.

24:20

And the Spirit
<07307>

of God
<0430>

came
<03847> (8804)

upon Zechariah
<02148>

the son
<01121>

of Jehoiada
<03077>

the priest
<03548>_,

which stood
<05975> (8799)

above the people
<05971>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

God
<0430>_,

Why transgress
<05674> (8802)

ye the commandments
<04687>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

that ye cannot prosper
<06743> (8686)_?

because ye have forsaken
<05800> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

he hath also forsaken
<05800> (8799)

you. {came...: Heb. clothed}

24:21

And they conspired
<07194> (8799)

against him, and stoned
<07275> (8799)

him with stones
<068>

at the commandment
<04687>

of the king
<04428>

in the court
<02691>

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

24:22

Thus Joash
<03101>

the king
<04428>

remembered
<02142> (8804)

not the kindness
<02617>

which Jehoiada
<03077>

his father
<01>

had done
<06213> (8804)

to him, but slew
<02026> (8799)

his son
<01121>_.

And when he died
<04194>_,

he said
<0559> (8804)_,

The LORD
<03068>

look
<07200> (8799)

upon [it], and require
<01875> (8799)

[it].

24:23

And it came to pass at the end
<08622>

of the year
<08141>_,

[that] the host
<02428>

of Syria
<0758>

came up
<05927> (8804)

against him: and they came
<0935> (8799)

to Judah
<03063>

and Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and destroyed
<07843> (8686)

all the princes
<08269>

of the people
<05971>

from among the people
<05971>_,

and sent
<07971> (8765)

all the spoil
<07998>

of them unto the king
<04428>

of Damascus
<01834>_.

{at the...: Heb. in the revolution of the year} {Damascus: Heb. Darmesek}

24:24

For the army
<02428>

of the Syrians
<0758>

came
<0935> (8804)

with a small
<04705>

company of men
<0582>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

delivered
<05414> (8804)

a very
<03966>

great
<07230>

host
<02428>

into their hand
<03027>_,

because they had forsaken
<05800> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of their fathers
<01>_.

So they executed
<06213> (8804)

judgment
<08201>

against Joash
<03101>_.

24:25

And when they were departed
<03212> (8800)

from him, (for they left
<05800> (8804)

him in great
<07227>

diseases
<04251>,)

his own servants
<05650>

conspired
<07194> (8694)

against him for the blood
<01818>

of the sons
<01121>

of Jehoiada
<03077>

the priest
<03548>_,

and slew
<02026> (8799)

him on his bed
<04296>_,

and he died
<04191> (8799)_:

and they buried
<06912> (8799)

him in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>_,

but they buried
<06912> (8804)

him not in the sepulchres
<06913>

of the kings
<04428>_.

24:26

And these are they that conspired
<07194> (8693)

against him; Zabad
<02066>

the son
<01121>

of Shimeath
<08100>

an Ammonitess
<05985>_,

and Jehozabad
<03075>

the son
<01121>

of Shimrith
<08116>

a Moabitess
<04125>_.

{Zabad: or, Jozacher} {Shimrith: or, Shomer}

24:27

Now [concerning] his sons
<01121>_,

and the greatness
<07235> (8799) (8675) <07230>

of the burdens
<04853>

[laid] upon him, and the repairing
<03247>

of the house
<01004>

of God
<0430>_,

behold, they [are] written
<03789> (8803)

in the story
<04097>

of the book
<05612>

of the kings
<04428>_.

And Amaziah
<0558>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead. {repairing: Heb. founding} {story: or, commentary}
