2 Chronicles 25:14-20

Now it came to pass, after
<0310>
that Amaziah
<0558>
was come
<0935> (8800)
from the slaughter
<05221> (8687)
of the Edomites
<0130>_,
that he brought
<0935> (8686)
the gods
<0430>
of the children
<01121>
of Seir
<08165>_,
and set them up
<05975> (8686)
[to be] his gods
<0430>_,
and bowed down
<07812> (8691)
himself before
<06440>
them, and burned incense
<06999> (8762)
unto them.
Wherefore the anger
<0639>
of the LORD
<03068>
was kindled
<02734> (8799)
against Amaziah
<0558>_,
and he sent
<07971> (8799)
unto him a prophet
<05030>_,
which said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Why hast thou sought
<01875> (8804)
after the gods
<0430>
of the people
<05971>_,
which could not deliver
<05337> (8689)
their own people
<05971>
out of thine hand
<03027>_?
And it came to pass, as he talked
<01696> (8763)
with him, that [the king] said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Art thou made
<05414> (8804)
of the king's
<04428>
counsel
<03289> (8802)_?
forbear
<02308> (8798)_;
why shouldest thou be smitten
<05221> (8686)_?
Then the prophet
<05030>
forbare
<02308> (8799)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
I know
<03045> (8804)
that God
<0430>
hath determined
<03289> (8804)
to destroy
<07843> (8687)
thee, because thou hast done
<06213> (8804)
this, and hast not hearkened
<08085> (8804)
unto my counsel
<06098>_.
{determined: Heb. counselled}
Then Amaziah
<0558>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
took advice
<03289> (8735)_,
and sent
<07971> (8799)
to Joash
<03101>_,
the son
<01121>
of Jehoahaz
<03059>_,
the son
<01121>
of Jehu
<03058>_,
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Come
<03212> (8798)_,
let us see one another
<07200> (8691)
in the face
<06440>_.
And Joash
<03101>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
sent
<07971> (8799)
to Amaziah
<0558>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The thistle
<02336>
that [was] in Lebanon
<03844>
sent
<07971> (8804)
to the cedar
<0730>
that [was] in Lebanon
<03844>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Give
<05414> (8798)
thy daughter
<01323>
to my son
<01121>
to wife
<0802>_:
and there passed by
<05674> (8799)
a wild
<07704>
beast
<02416>
that [was] in Lebanon
<03844>_,
and trode down
<07429> (8799)
the thistle
<02336>_.
{thistle: or, furze bush, or, thorn} {a wild...: Heb. a beast of the field}
Thou sayest
<0559> (8804)_,
Lo, thou hast smitten
<05221> (8689)
the Edomites
<0123>_;
and thine heart
<03820>
lifteth thee up
<05375> (8804)
to boast
<03513> (8687)_:
abide
<03427> (8798)
now at home
<01004>_;
why shouldest thou meddle
<01624> (8691)
to [thine] hurt
<07451>_,
that thou shouldest fall
<05307> (8804)_,
[even] thou, and Judah
<03063>
with thee?
But Amaziah
<0558>
would not hear
<08085> (8804)_;
for it [came] of God
<0430>_,
that he might deliver
<05414> (8800)
them into the hand
<03027>
[of their enemies], because they sought
<01875> (8804)
after the gods
<0430>
of Edom
<0123>_.
