2 Kings 15:8--17:6

15:8

In the thirty
<07970> <08141>

and eighth
<08083>

year
<08141>

of Azariah
<05838>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

did Zachariah
<02148>

the son
<01121>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

reign
<04427> (8804)

over Israel
<03478>

in Samaria
<08111>

six
<08337>

months
<02320>_.

15:9

And he did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

as his fathers
<01>

had done
<06213> (8804)_:

he departed
<05493> (8804)

not from the sins
<02403>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

the son
<01121>

of Nebat
<05028>_,

who made Israel
<03478>

to sin
<02398> (8689)_.

15:10

And Shallum
<07967>

the son
<01121>

of Jabesh
<03003>

conspired
<07194> (8799)

against him, and smote
<05221> (8686)

him before
<06905>

the people
<05971>_,

and slew
<04191> (8686)

him, and reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead.

15:11

And the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Zachariah
<02148>_,

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

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

15:12

This [was] the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

which he spake
<01696> (8765)

unto Jehu
<03058>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thy sons
<01121>

shall sit
<03427> (8799)

on the throne
<03678>

of Israel
<03478>

unto the fourth
<07243>

[generation]. And so it came to pass.

15:13

Shallum
<07967>

the son
<01121>

of Jabesh
<03003>

began to reign
<04427> (8804)

in the nine
<08672>

and thirtieth
<07970>

year
<08141>

of Uzziah
<05818>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_;

and he reigned
<04427> (8799)

a full
<03117>

month
<03391>

in Samaria
<08111>_.

{Uzziah: Gr. Ozias} {a full...: Heb. a month of days}

15:14

For Menahem
<04505>

the son
<01121>

of Gadi
<01424>

went up
<05927> (8799)

from Tirzah
<08656>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to Samaria
<08111>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

Shallum
<07967>

the son
<01121>

of Jabesh
<03003>

in Samaria
<08111>_,

and slew
<04191> (8686)

him, and reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead.

15:15

And the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Shallum
<07967>_,

and his conspiracy
<07195>

which he made
<07194> (8804)_,

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

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

15:16

Then Menahem
<04505>

smote
<05221> (8686)

Tiphsah
<08607>_,

and all that [were] therein, and the coasts
<01366>

thereof from Tirzah
<08656>_:

because they opened
<06605> (8804)

not [to him], therefore he smote
<05221> (8686)

[it; and] all the women therein that were with child
<02030>

he ripped up
<01234> (8765)_.

15:17

In the nine
<08672> <08141>

and thirtieth
<07970>

year
<08141>

of Azariah
<05838>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

began Menahem
<04505>

the son
<01121>

of Gadi
<01424>

to reign
<04427> (8804)

over Israel
<03478>_,

[and reigned] ten
<06235>

years
<08141>

in Samaria
<08111>_.

15:18

And he did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

he departed
<05493> (8804)

not all his days
<03117>

from the sins
<02403>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

the son
<01121>

of Nebat
<05028>_,

who made Israel
<03478>

to sin
<02398> (8689)_.

15:19

[And] Pul
<06322>

the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

came
<0935> (8804)

against the land
<0776>_:

and Menahem
<04505>

gave
<05414> (8799)

Pul
<06322>

a thousand
<0505>

talents
<03603>

of silver
<03701>_,

that his hand
<03027>

might be with him to confirm
<02388> (8687)

the kingdom
<04467>

in his hand
<03027>_.

15:20

And Menahem
<04505>

exacted
<03318> (8686)

the money
<03701>

of Israel
<03478>_,

[even] of all the mighty men
<01368>

of wealth
<02428>_,

of each
<0259>

man
<0376>

fifty
<02572>

shekels
<08255>

of silver
<03701>_,

to give
<05414> (8800)

to the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_.

So the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

turned back
<07725> (8799)_,

and stayed
<05975> (8804)

not there in the land
<0776>_.

{exacted: Heb. caused to come forth}

15:21

And the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Menahem
<04505>_,

and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_?

15:22

And Menahem
<04505>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_;

and Pekahiah
<06494>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead.

15:23

In the fiftieth
<02572> <08141>

year
<08141>

of Azariah
<05838>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

Pekahiah
<06494>

the son
<01121>

of Menahem
<04505>

began to reign
<04427> (8804)

over Israel
<03478>

in Samaria
<08111>_,

[and reigned] two years
<08141>_.

15:24

And he did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

he departed
<05493> (8804)

not from the sins
<02403>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

the son
<01121>

of Nebat
<05028>_,

who made Israel
<03478>

to sin
<02398> (8689)_.

15:25

But Pekah
<06492>

the son
<01121>

of Remaliah
<07425>_,

a captain
<07991>

of his, conspired
<07194> (8799)

against him, and smote
<05221> (8686)

him in Samaria
<08111>_,

in the palace
<0759>

of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

with Argob
<0709>

and Arieh
<0745>_,

and with him fifty
<02572>

men
<0376>

of the Gileadites
<01121> <01569>_:

and he killed
<04191> (8686)

him, and reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his room.

15:26

And the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Pekahiah
<06494>_,

and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,

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

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

15:27

In the two
<08147> <08141>

and fiftieth
<02572>

year
<08141>

of Azariah
<05838>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

Pekah
<06492>

the son
<01121>

of Remaliah
<07425>

began to reign
<04427> (8804)

over Israel
<03478>

in Samaria
<08111>_,

[and reigned] twenty
<06242>

years
<08141>_.

15:28

And he did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

he departed
<05493> (8804)

not from the sins
<02403>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

the son
<01121>

of Nebat
<05028>_,

who made Israel
<03478>

to sin
<02398> (8689)_.

15:29

In the days
<03117>

of Pekah
<06492>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

came
<0935> (8804)

Tiglathpileser
<08407>

king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

Ijon
<05859>_,

and Abelbethmaachah
<062>_,

and Janoah
<03239>_,

and Kedesh
<06943>_,

and Hazor
<02674>_,

and Gilead
<01568>_,

and Galilee
<01551>_,

all the land
<0776>

of Naphtali
<05321>_,

and carried them captive
<01540> (8686)

to Assyria
<0804>_.

15:30

And Hoshea
<01954>

the son
<01121>

of Elah
<0425>

made
<07194> (8799)

a conspiracy
<07195>

against Pekah
<06492>

the son
<01121>

of Remaliah
<07425>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

him, and slew
<04191> (8686)

him, and reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead, in the twentieth
<06242>

year
<08141>

of Jotham
<03147>

the son
<01121>

of Uzziah
<05818>_.

15:31

And the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Pekah
<06492>_,

and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,

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

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

15:32

In the second
<08147>

year
<08141>

of Pekah
<06492>

the son
<01121>

of Remaliah
<07425>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

began Jotham
<03147>

the son
<01121>

of Uzziah
<05818>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

to reign
<04427> (8804)_.

15:33

Five
<02568>

and twenty
<06242>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

was he when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,

and he reigned
<04427> (8804)

sixteen
<08337> <06240>

years
<08141>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And his mother's
<0517>

name
<08034>

[was] Jerusha
<03388>_,

the daughter
<01323>

of Zadok
<06659>_.

15:34

And he did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] right
<03477>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

he did
<06213> (8804)

according to all that his father
<01>

Uzziah
<05818>

had done
<06213> (8804)_.

15:35

Howbeit the high places
<01116>

were not removed
<05493> (8804)_:

the people
<05971>

sacrificed
<02076> (8764)

and burned incense
<06999> (8764)

still in the high places
<01116>_.

He built
<01129> (8804)

the higher
<05945>

gate
<08179>

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

15:36

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Jotham
<03147>_,

and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_?

15:37

In those days
<03117>

the LORD
<03068>

began
<02490> (8689)

to send
<07971> (8687)

against Judah
<03063>

Rezin
<07526>

the king
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>_,

and Pekah
<06492>

the son
<01121>

of Remaliah
<07425>_.

15:38

And Jotham
<03147>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_,

and was buried
<06912> (8735)

with his fathers
<01>

in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>

his father
<01>_:

and Ahaz
<0271>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead.

16:1

In the seventeenth
<07651> <06240> <08141>

year
<08141>

of Pekah
<06492>

the son
<01121>

of Remaliah
<07425>

Ahaz
<0271>

the son
<01121>

of Jotham
<03147>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

began to reign
<04427> (8804)_.

16:2

Twenty
<06242>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

[was] Ahaz
<0271>

when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,

and reigned
<04427> (8804)

sixteen
<08337> <06240>

years
<08141>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and did
<06213> (8804)

not [that which was] right
<03477>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>_,

like David
<01732>

his father
<01>_.

16:3

But he walked
<03212> (8799)

in the way
<01870>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

yea, and made his son
<01121>

to pass through
<05674> (8689)

the fire
<0784>_,

according to the abominations
<08441>

of the heathen
<01471>_,

whom the LORD
<03068>

cast out
<03423> (8689)

from before
<06440>

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_.

16:4

And he sacrificed
<02076> (8762)

and burnt incense
<06999> (8762)

in the high places
<01116>_,

and on the hills
<01389>_,

and under every green
<07488>

tree
<06086>_.

16:5

Then Rezin
<07526>

king
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>

and Pekah
<06492>

son
<01121>

of Remaliah
<07425>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

came up
<05927> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>

to war
<04421>_:

and they besieged
<06696> (8799)

Ahaz
<0271>_,

but could
<03201> (8804)

not overcome
<03898> (8736)

[him].

16:6

At that time
<06256>

Rezin
<07526>

king
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>

recovered
<07725> (8689)

Elath
<0359>

to Syria
<0758> (8675) <0130>_,

and drave
<05394> (8762)

the Jews
<03064>

from Elath
<0359>_:

and the Syrians
<0726>

came
<0935> (8804)

to Elath
<0359>_,

and dwelt
<03427> (8799)

there unto this day
<03117>_.

{from Elath: Heb. from Eloth}

16:7

So Ahaz
<0271>

sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

to Tiglathpileser
<08407>

king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

I [am] thy servant
<05650>

and thy son
<01121>_:

come up
<05927> (8798)_,

and save
<03467> (8685)

me out of the hand
<03709>

of the king
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>_,

and out of the hand
<03709>

of the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

which rise up
<06965> (8801)

against me.

16:8

And Ahaz
<0271>

took
<03947> (8799)

the silver
<03701>

and gold
<02091>

that was found
<04672> (8737)

in the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and in the treasures
<0214>

of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)

[it for] a present
<07810>

to the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_.

16:9

And the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

hearkened
<08085> (8799)

unto him: for the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

went up
<05927> (8799)

against Damascus
<01834>_,

and took
<08610> (8799)

it, and carried [the people of] it captive
<01540> (8686)

to Kir
<07024>_,

and slew
<04191> (8689)

Rezin
<07526>_.

{Damascus: Heb. Dammesek}

16:10

And king
<04428>

Ahaz
<0271>

went
<03212> (8799)

to Damascus
<01834>

to meet
<07125> (8800)

Tiglathpileser
<08407>

king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_,

and saw
<07200> (8799)

an altar
<04196>

that [was] at Damascus
<01834>_:

and king
<04428>

Ahaz
<0271>

sent
<07971> (8799)

to Urijah
<0223>

the priest
<03548>

the fashion
<01823>

of the altar
<04196>_,

and the pattern
<08403>

of it, according to all the workmanship
<04639>

thereof. {Damascus: Heb. Dammesek}

16:11

And Urijah
<0223>

the priest
<03548>

built
<01129> (8799)

an altar
<04196>

according to all that king
<04428>

Ahaz
<0271>

had sent
<07971> (8804)

from Damascus
<01834>_:

so Urijah
<0223>

the priest
<03548>

made
<06213> (8804)

[it] against king
<04428>

Ahaz
<0271>

came
<0935> (8800)

from Damascus
<01834>_.

16:12

And when the king
<04428>

was come
<0935> (8799)

from Damascus
<01834>_,

the king
<04428>

saw
<07200> (8799)

the altar
<04196>_:

and the king
<04428>

approached
<07126> (8799)

to the altar
<04196>_,

and offered
<05927> (8686)

thereon.

16:13

And he burnt
<06999> (8686)

his burnt offering
<05930>

and his meat offering
<04503>_,

and poured
<05258> (8686)

his drink offering
<05262>_,

and sprinkled
<02236> (8799)

the blood
<01818>

of his peace offerings
<08002>_,

upon the altar
<04196>_.

{his peace offerings: Heb. the peace offerings which were his}

16:14

And he brought
<07126> (8686)

also the brasen
<05178>

altar
<04196>_,

which [was] before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

from the forefront
<06440>

of the house
<01004>_,

from between the altar
<04196>

and the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and put
<05414> (8799)

it on the north
<06828>

side
<03409>

of the altar
<04196>_.

16:15

And king
<04428>

Ahaz
<0271>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

Urijah
<0223>

the priest
<03548>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Upon the great
<01419>

altar
<04196>

burn
<06999> (8685)

the morning
<01242>

burnt offering
<05930>_,

and the evening
<06153>

meat offering
<04503>_,

and the king's
<04428>

burnt sacrifice
<05930>_,

and his meat offering
<04503>_,

with the burnt offering
<05930>

of all the people
<05971>

of the land
<0776>_,

and their meat offering
<04503>_,

and their drink offerings
<05262>_;

and sprinkle
<02236> (8799)

upon it all the blood
<01818>

of the burnt offering
<05930>_,

and all the blood
<01818>

of the sacrifice
<02077>_:

and the brasen
<05178>

altar
<04196>

shall be for me to enquire
<01239> (8763)

[by].

16:16

Thus did
<06213> (8799)

Urijah
<0223>

the priest
<03548>_,

according to all that king
<04428>

Ahaz
<0271>

commanded
<06680> (8765)_.

16:17

And king
<04428>

Ahaz
<0271>

cut off
<07112> (8762)

the borders
<04526>

of the bases
<04350>_,

and removed
<05493> (8686)

the laver
<03595>

from off them; and took down
<03381> (8689)

the sea
<03220>

from off the brasen
<05178>

oxen
<01241>

that [were] under it, and put
<05414> (8799)

it upon a pavement
<04837>

of stones
<068>_.

16:18

And the covert
<04329> (8675) <04329>

for the sabbath
<07676>

that they had built
<01129> (8804)

in the house
<01004>_,

and the king's
<04428>

entry
<03996>

without
<02435>_,

turned
<05437> (8689)

he from the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

for
<06440>

the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_.

16:19

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Ahaz
<0271>

which he did
<06213> (8804)_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_?

16:20

And Ahaz
<0271>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_,

and was buried
<06912> (8735)

with his fathers
<01>

in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>_:

and Hezekiah
<02396>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead.

17:1

In the twelfth
<08147> <06240>

year
<08141>

of Ahaz
<0271>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

began Hoshea
<01954>

the son
<01121>

of Elah
<0425>

to reign
<04427> (8804)

in Samaria
<08111>

over Israel
<03478>

nine
<08672>

years
<08141>_.

17:2

And he did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

but not as the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

that were before
<06440>

him.

17:3

Against him came up
<05927> (8804)

Shalmaneser
<08022>

king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_;

and Hoshea
<01954>

became his servant
<05650>_,

and gave
<07725> (8686)

him presents
<04503>_.

{gave: Heb. rendered} {presents: or, tribute}

17:4

And the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

found
<04672> (8799)

conspiracy
<07195>

in Hoshea
<01954>_:

for he had sent
<07971> (8804)

messengers
<04397>

to So
<05471>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and brought
<05927> (8689)

no present
<04503>

to the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_,

as [he had done] year
<08141>

by year
<08141>_:

therefore the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

shut him up
<06113> (8799)_,

and bound
<0631> (8799)

him in prison
<01004> <03608>_.

{present: or, tribute}

17:5

Then the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

came up
<05927> (8799)

throughout all the land
<0776>_,

and went up
<05927> (8799)

to Samaria
<08111>_,

and besieged
<06696> (8799)

it three
<07969>

years
<08141>_.

17:6

In the ninth
<08671>

year
<08141>

of Hoshea
<01954>

the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

took
<03920> (8804)

Samaria
<08111>_,

and carried
<01540> (0)

Israel
<03478>

away
<01540> (8686)

into Assyria
<0804>_,

and placed
<03427> (8686)

them in Halah
<02477>

and in Habor
<02249>

[by] the river
<05104>

of Gozan
<01470>_,

and in the cities
<05892>

of the Medes
<04074>_.
