06 : 07 Now it was in the heart <03824 +lebab > of David <01732

07 : 03 And when all <03605 +kol > the children <01121 +ben > of

for his mercy <02617 +checed > [ endureth ] for ever < 05769

07 : 04 Then the king <04428 +melek > and all <03605 +kol > the

07 : 05 And king <04428 +melek > Solomon <08010 +Sh@lomoh >
offered <02076 +zabach > a sacrifice <02077 +zebach > of twenty

house <01004 +bayith > of God <00430 +>elohiym > .



07 : 06 And the priests <03548 +kohen > waited <05975 +<amad >
on their offices <04931 +mishmereth > : the Levites < 03881
+Leviyiy > also with instruments <03627 +k@liy > of musick

the priests <03548 +kohen > sounded <02690 +chatsar > trumpets

07 : 07 Moreover Solomon <08010 +Sh@lomoh > hallowed < 06942

07 : 08 Also at the same <01931 +huw> > time <06256 +<eth >
Solomon <08010 +Sh@lomoh > kept <06213 +<asah > the feast <02282

from the entering <00935 +bow> > in of Hamath <02574 +Chamath >
unto the river <05158 +nachal > of Egypt <04714 +Mitsrayim > .



07 : 09 And in the eighth <08066 +sh@miyniy > day <03117 +yowm >
they made <06213 +<asah > a solemn <06116 +< atsarah > assembly
<06116 +<atsarah > : for they kept <06213 +<asah > the
dedication <02598 +chanukkah > of the altar <04196 +mizbeach >
seven <07651 +sheba< > days <03117 +yowm > , and the feast
<02282 +chag > seven <07651 +sheba< > days < 03117 +yowm > .



07 : 10 And on the three <07969 +shalowsh > and twentieth <06242
+<esriym > day <03117 +yowm > of the seventh < 07637 +sh@biy<iy >
month <02320 +chodesh > he sent <07971 +shalach > the people
<05971 +<am > away into their tents <00168 +>ohel > , glad
<08056 +sameach > and merry <02896 +towb > in heart <03820 +leb

Solomon <08010 +Sh@lomoh > , and to Israel <03478 +Yisra>el >
his people <05971 +<am > .



07 : 11 Thus Solomon <08010 +Sh@lomoh > finished <03615 +kalah >
the house <01004 +bayith > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , and
the king s <04428 +melek > house <01004 +bayith > : and all

prosperously <06743 +tsalach > effected <06743 +tsalach > .



07 : 12 . And the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > appeared < 07200 +ra>ah

house <01004 +bayith > of sacrifice <02077 +zebach > .



07 : 13 If <02005 +hen > I shut <06113 +<atsar > up heaven
<08064 +shamayim > that there be no <03808 +lo> > rain <04306

pestilence <01698 +deber > among my people <05971 +< am > ;



07 : 14 If my people <05971 +<am > , which <00834 +>aher > are
called <07121 +qara> > by my name <08034 +shem > , shall humble

then will I hear <08085 +shama< > from heaven <08064 +shamayim >
, and will forgive <05545 +calach > their sin <02403 +chatta>ah

07 : 15 Now <06258 +<attah > mine eyes <05869 +< ayin > shall be
open <06605 +pathach > , and mine ears <00241 +>ozen > attent

made ] in this <02088 +zeh > place <04725 +maqowm > .



07 : 16 For now <06258 +<attah > have I chosen <00977 +bachar >
and sanctified <06942 +qadash > this <02088 +zeh > house <01004

perpetually

.



07 : 17 And as for thee , if <00518 +>im > thou wilt walk <03212

07 : 18 Then will I stablish <06965 +quwm > the throne < 03678

07 : 19 But if <00518 +>im > ye turn <07725 +shuwb > away , and
forsake <05800 +<azab > my statutes <02708 +chuqqah > and my

gods <00430 +>elohiym > , and worship <07812 +shachah > them ;



07 : 20 Then will I pluck <05428 +nathash > them up by the roots

07 : 21 And this <02088 +zeh > house <01004 +bayith > , which
<00834 +>aher > is high <05945 +>elyown > , shall be an
astonishment <08074 +shamem > to every <03605 +kol > one that

07 : 22 And it shall be answered <00559 +>amar > , Because they

08 : 01 . And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass at the end <07093

08 : 02 That the cities <05892 +<iyr > which <00834 +>aher >
Huram <02438 +Chiyram > had restored <05414 +nathan > to Solomon

08 : 03 And Solomon <08010 +Sh@lomoh > went <03212 +yalak > to
Hamathzobah <02578 +Chamath Tsowbah > , and prevailed < 02388

departed <03212 +yalak > .



10 : 06 And king <04428 +melek > Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am >
took counsel <03289 +ya<ats > with the old <02205 +zaqen > men
that had <01961 +hayah > stood <05975 +<amad > before <06440

10 : 08 But he forsook <05800 +<azab > the counsel < 06098
+<etsah > which <00834 +>aher > the old <02205 +zaqen > men gave
<03289 +ya<ats > him , and took counsel <03289 +ya< ats > with
the young <03206 +yeled > men that were brought <01431 +gadal >
up with him , that stood <05975 +<amad > before < 06440 +paniym >

10 : 09 And he said <00559 +>amar > unto them , What < 04100 +mah

the yoke <05923 +<ol > that thy father <25> did put <05414

10 : 10 And the young <03206 +yeled > men that were brought
<01431 +gadal > up with him spake <01696 +dabar > unto him ,
saying <00559 +>amar > , Thus <03541 +koh > shalt thou answer

made our yoke <05923 +<ol > heavy <03513 +kabad > , but make
thou [ it ] somewhat lighter <07043 +qalal > for us ; thus
<03541 +koh > shalt thou say <00559 +>amar > unto them , My
little <06996 +qatan > [ finger ] shall be thicker < 05666 +<abah

10 : 11 For whereas <06258 +<attah > my father <25> put <06006

will put <03254 +yacaph > more <03254 +yacaph > to your yoke

with whips <07752 +showt > , but I [ will chastise you ] with
scorpions <06137 +<aqrab > .



10 : 12 . So Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > and all < 03605 +kol >
the people <05971 +<am > came <00935 +bow> > to Rehoboam <07346
+R@chab<am > on the third <07992 +sh@liyshiy > day <03117 +yowm

me on the third <07992 +sh@liyshiy > day <03117 +yowm > .



10 : 13 And the king <04428 +melek > answered <06030 +<anah >
them roughly <07186 +qasheh > ; and king <04428 +melek >
Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am > forsook <05800 +<azab > the counsel
<06098 +<etsah > of the old <02205 +zaqen > men ,



10 : 14 And answered <01697 +dabar > them after the advice
<06098 +<etsah > of the young <03206 +yeled > men , saying
<00559 +>amar > , My father <25> made your yoke <05923 +<ol >
heavy <03513 +kabad > , but I will add <03254 +yacaph > thereto
<05921 +<al > : my father <25> chastised <03256 +yacar > you
with whips <07752 +showt > , but I [ will chastise you ] with
scorpions <06137 +<aqrab > .



10 : 15 So the king <04428 +melek > hearkened <08085 +shama< >
not unto the people <05971 +<am > : for the cause < 05252
+n@cibbah > was of God <00430 +>elohiym > , that the LORD <03068

10 : 16 And when all <03605 +kol > Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > [
saw <07200 +ra>ah > ] that the king <04428 +melek > would not
hearken <08085 +shama< > unto them , the people < 05971 +<am >
answered <07725 +shuwb > the king <04428 +melek > , saying
<00559 +>amar > , What <04100 +mah > portion < 02506 +cheleq >

10 : 17 But [ as for ] the children <01121 +ben > of Israel

10 : 18 Then king <04428 +melek > Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am >
sent <07971 +shalach > Hadoram <01913 +Hadowram > that [ was ]
over <05921 +<al > the tribute <04522 +mac > ; and the children

king <04428 +melek > Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am > made speed

chariot <04818 +merkabah > , to flee <05127 +nuwc > to Jerusalem
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > .



10 : 19 And Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > rebelled <06856 +tsipporen

unto this <02088 +zeh > day <03117 +yowm > .



11 : 01 . And when Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am > was come <00935

.



11 : 02 But the word <01697 +dabar > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah

11 : 05 And Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am > dwelt <03427 +yashab >
in Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > , and built <01129 +banah >
cities <05892 +<iyr > for defence <04692 +matsowr > in Judah

their suburbs <04054 +migrash > and their possession < 00272

11 : 23 And he dealt wisely <00995 +biyn > , and dispersed
<06555 +parats > of all <03605 +kol > his children <01121 +ben >
throughout all <03605 +kol > the countries <00776 +> erets > of
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > and Benjamin <01144 +Binyamiyn > , unto
every <03605 +kol > fenced <04694 +m@tsuwrah > city <05892 +<iyr

in abundance <07230 +rob > . And he desired <07592 +sha>al >
many <01995 +hamown > wives <00802 +>ishshah > .



12 : 01 . And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , when Rehoboam
<07346 +R@chab<am > had established <03559 +kuwn > the kingdom
<04438 +malkuwth > , and had strengthened <02394 +chozqah >
himself , he forsook <05800 +<azab > the law <08451 +towrah > of
the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , and all <03605 +kol > Israel <03478
+Yisra>el > with him .



12 : 02 And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , [ that ] in the
fifth <02549 +chamiyshiy > year <08141 +shaneh > of king <04428
+melek > Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am > Shishak < 07895 +Shiyshaq >
king <04428 +melek > of Egypt <04714 +Mitsrayim > came <05927
+<alah > up against <05921 +<al > Jerusalem < 03389 +Y@ruwshalaim

against the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > ,



12 : 03 With twelve <00505 +>eleph > hundred <03967 +me>ah >
chariots <07393 +rekeb > , and threescore <08346 +shishshiym >
thousand <00505 +>eleph > horsemen <06571 +parash > : and the
people <05971 +<am > [ were ] without <00369 +> ayin > number
<04557 +micpar > that came <00935 +bow> > with him out of Egypt
<04714 +Mitsrayim > ; the Lubims <03864 +Luwbiy > , the Sukkiims
<05525 +Cukkiy > , and the Ethiopians <03569 +Kuwshiy > .



12 : 04 And he took <03920 +lakad > the fenced <04694 +m@tsuwrah

Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > , and came <00935 +bow> > to Jerusalem
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > .



12 : 05 Then came <00935 +bow> > Shemaiah <08098 +Sh@ma<yah >
the prophet <05030 +nabiy> > to Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am > ,
and [ to ] the princes <08269 +sar > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah >
, that were gathered <00622 +>acaph > together to Jerusalem
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > because <06448 +pacag > of Shishak <07895
+Shiyshaq > , and said <00559 +>amar > unto them , Thus <03541
+koh > saith <00559 +>amar > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , Ye
have forsaken <05800 +<azab > me , and therefore have I also
left <05800 +<azab > you in the hand <03027 +yad > of Shishak
<07895 +Shiyshaq > .



12 : 06 Whereupon the princes <08269 +sar > of Israel < 03478
+Yisra>el > and the king <04428 +melek > humbled < 03665 +kana< >
themselves ; and they said <00559 +>amar > , The LORD <03068
+Y@hovah > [ is ] righteous <06662 +tsaddiyq > .



12 : 07 And when the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > saw <07200 +ra>ah >
that they humbled <03665 +kana< > themselves , the word <01697
+dabar > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > came <01961 +hayah > to
Shemaiah <08098 +Sh@ma<yah > , saying <00559 +> amar > , They
have humbled <03665 +kana< > themselves ; [ therefore ] I will
not destroy <07843 +shachath > them , but I will grant < 05414
+nathan > them some <04592 +m@<at > deliverance < 06413 +p@leytah

+nathak > out upon Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > by the hand
<03027 +yad > of Shishak <07895 +Shiyshaq > .



12 : 08 Nevertheless <03588 +kiy > they shall be his servants
<05650 +<ebed > ; that they may know <03045 +yada< > my service
<05656 +<abodah > , and the service <05656 +< abodah > of the
kingdoms <04467 +mamlakah > of the countries <00776 +> erets > .



12 : 09 So Shishak <07895 +Shiyshaq > king <04428 +melek > of
Egypt <04714 +Mitsrayim > came <05927 +<alah > up against <05921
+<al > Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > , and took <03947
+laqach > away the treasures <00214 +>owtsar > of the house
<01004 +bayith > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , and the
treasures <00214 +>owtsar > of the king s <04428 +melek > house
<01004 +bayith > ; he took <03947 +laqach > all < 03605 +kol > :
he carried <03947 +laqach > away also the shields <04043 +magen

+Sh@lomoh > had made <06213 +<asah > .



12 : 10 Instead <08478 +tachath > of which king <04428 +melek >
Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am > made <06213 +<asah > shields <04043
+magen > of brass <05178 +n@chosheth > , and committed <06485
+paqad > [ them ] to the hands <03027 +yad > of the chief <08269
+sar > of the guard <07323 +ruwts > , that kept < 08104 +shamar >
the entrance <06607 +pethach > of the king s <04428 +melek >
house <01004 +bayith > .



12 : 11 And when <01767 +day > the king <04428 +melek > entered
<00935 +bow> > into the house <01004 +bayith > of the LORD
<03068 +Y@hovah > , the guard <07323 +ruwts > came <00935 +bow>
> and fetched <05375 +nasa> > them , and brought < 07725 +shuwb >
them again <07725 +shuwb > into <00413 +>el > the guard <07323
+ruwts > chamber <08372 +ta> > .



12 : 12 And when he humbled <03665 +kana< > himself , the wrath
<00639 +>aph > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > turned <07725
+shuwb > from him , that he would not destroy <07843 +shachath >
[ him ] altogether <03617 +kalah > : and also <01571 +gam > in
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > things <01697 +dabar > went <01961
+hayah > well <02896 +towb > .



12 : 13 . So king <04428 +melek > Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am >
strengthened <02388 +chazaq > himself in Jerusalem < 03389
+Y@ruwshalaim > , and reigned <04427 +malak > : for Rehoboam
<07346 +R@chab<am > [ was ] one <00259 +>echad > and forty
<00705 +>arba<iym > years <08141 +shaneh > old <01121 +ben >
when he began to reign <04427 +malak > , and he reigned < 04427
+malak > seventeen <07651 +sheba< > years <08141 +shaneh > in
Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > , the city <05892 +< iyr > which
<00834 +>aher > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > had chosen <00977
+bachar > out of all <03605 +kol > the tribes <07626 +shebet >
of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > , to put <07760 +suwm > his name
<08034 +shem > there <08033 +sham > . And his mother s <00517
+>em > name <08034 +shem > [ was ] Naamah <05279 +Na<amah > an
Ammonitess <05984 +<Ammowniy > .



12 : 14 And he did <06213 +<asah > evil <07451 +ra< > , because
<03588 +kiy > he prepared <03559 +kuwn > not his heart <03820
+leb > to seek <01875 +darash > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > .



12 : 15 Now the acts <01697 +dabar > of Rehoboam <07346
+R@chab<am > , first <07223 +ri>shown > and last <00314
+>acharown > , [ are ] they not written <03789 +kathab > in the
book <01697 +dabar > of Shemaiah <08098 +Sh@ma<yah > the prophet
<05030 +nabiy> > , and of Iddo <05714 +<Iddow > the seer <02374
+chozeh > concerning genealogies <03187 +yachas > ? And [ there
were ] wars <04421 +milchamah > between Rehoboam <07346
+R@chab<am > and Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > continually .



12 : 16 And Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am > slept <07901 +shakab >
with his fathers <1> , and was buried <06912 +qabar > in the
city <05892 +<iyr > of David <01732 +David > : and Abijah <29>
his son <01121 +ben > reigned <04427 +malak > in his stead
<08478 +tachath > .



13 : 01 . Now in the eighteenth year <08141 +shaneh > of king
<04428 +melek > Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > began Abijah <29> to
reign <04427 +malak > over <05921 +<al > Judah < 03063 +Y@huwdah >

.



13 : 02 He reigned <04427 +malak > three <07969 +shalowsh >
years <08141 +shaneh > in Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > .
His mother s <00517 +>em > name <08034 +shem > also [ was ]
Michaiah <04322 +Miykayahuw > the daughter <01323 +bath > of
Uriel <00222 +>Uwriy>el > of Gibeah <01390 +Gib< ah > . And
there was war <04421 +milchamah > between <00996 +beyn > Abijah
<29> and Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > .



13 : 03 And Abijah <29> set <00631 +>acar > the battle <04421
+milchamah > in array <00631 +>acar > with an army <02428
+chayil > of valiant <01368 +gibbowr > men of war < 04421
+milchamah > , [ even ] four <00702 +>arba< > hundred <03967
+me>ah > thousand <00505 +>eleph > chosen < 00970 +bachuwr > men
<00376 +>iysh > : Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > also set the
battle <04421 +milchamah > in array <06186 +<arak > against
<05971 +<am > him with eight <08083 +sh@moneh > hundred <03967
+me>ah > thousand <00505 +>eleph > chosen < 00970 +bachuwr > men
<00376 +>iysh > , [ being ] mighty <01368 +gibbowr > men of
valour <02428 +chayil > .



13 : 04 And Abijah <29> stood <06965 +quwm > up upon mount
<02022 +har > Zemaraim <06787 +Ts@marayim > , which <00834
+>aher > [ is ] in mount <02022 +har > Ephraim < 00669 +>Ephrayim

Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > , and all <03605 +kol > Israel
<03478 +Yisra>el > ;



13 : 05 Ought ye not to know <03045 +yada< > that the LORD
<03068 +Y@hovah > God <00430 +>elohiym > of Israel <03478
+Yisra>el > gave <05414 +nathan > the kingdom < 04467 +mamlakah >
over <05921 +<al > Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > to David <01732
+David > for ever <05769 +<owlam > , [ even ] to him and to his
sons <01121 +ben > by a covenant <01285 +b@riyth > of salt
<04417 +melach > ?



13 : 06 Yet Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > the son < 01121 +ben > of
Nebat <05028 +N@bat > , the servant <05650 +<ebed > of Solomon
<08010 +Sh@lomoh > the son <01121 +ben > of David < 01732 +David

13 : 07 And there are gathered <06908 +qabats > unto him vain
<07386 +reyq > men <00582 +>enowsh > , the children <01121 +ben

+R@chab<am > the son <01121 +ben > of Solomon < 08010 +Sh@lomoh >
, when Rehoboam <07346 +R@chab<am > was young <05288 +na<ar >
and tenderhearted , and could not withstand <02388 +chazaq >
them .



13 : 08 And now <06258 +<attah > ye think <00559 +> amar > to
withstand <02388 +chazaq > the kingdom <04467 +mamlakah > of the
LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > in the hand <03027 +yad > of the sons
<01121 +ben > of David <01732 +David > ; and ye [ be ] a great
<07227 +rab > multitude <01995 +hamown > , and [ there are ]
with you golden <02091 +zahab > calves <05695 +<egel > , which
<00834 +>aher > Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > made <06213 +<asah >
you for gods <00430 +>elohiym > .



13 : 09 Have ye not cast <05080 +nadach > out the priests <03548
+kohen > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , the sons < 01121 +ben >
of Aaron <00175 +>Aharown > , and the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > ,
and have made <06213 +<asah > you priests <03548 +kohen > after
the manner of the nations <05971 +<am > of [ other ] lands
<00776 +>erets > ? so that whosoever <03605 +kol > cometh
<00935 +bow> > to consecrate himself <03027 +yad > with a young
bullock <06499 +par > and seven <07651 +sheba< > rams <00352
+>ayil > , [ the same ] may be a priest <03548 +kohen > of [
them that are ] no <03808 +lo> > gods <00430 +> elohiym > .



13 : 10 But as for us , the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > [ is ] our
God <00430 +>elohiym > , and we have not forsaken < 05800 +<azab

+sharath > unto the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , [ are ] the sons
<01121 +ben > of Aaron <00175 +>Aharown > , and the Levites
<03881 +Leviyiy > [ wait ] upon [ their ] business < 04399
+m@la>kah > :



13 : 11 And they burn <06999 +qatar > unto the LORD < 03068
+Y@hovah > every morning <01242 +boqer > and every evening
<06153 +<ereb > burnt <05930 +<olah > sacrifices and sweet
<05561 +cam > incense <07004 +q@toreth > : the shewbread also [
set they in order ] upon the pure <02889 +tahowr > table <07979
+shulchan > ; and the candlestick <04501 +m@nowrah > of gold
<02091 +zahab > with the lamps <05216 +niyr > thereof , to burn
<01197 +ba<ar > every evening <06153 +<ereb > : for we keep
<08104 +shamar > the charge <04931 +mishmereth > of the LORD
<03068 +Y@hovah > our God <00430 +>elohiym > ; but ye have
forsaken <05800 +<azab > him .



13 : 12 And , behold <02009 +hinneh > , God <00430 +> elohiym >
himself [ is ] with us for [ our ] captain <07218 +ro>sh > , and
his priests <03548 +kohen > with sounding <08643 +t@ruw<ah >
trumpets <02689 +chatsots@rah > to cry <07321 +ruwa< > alarm
<07321 +ruwa< > against <05921 +<al > you . O children <01121
+ben > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > , fight <03898 +lacham > ye
not against <05973 +<im > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > God <00430
+>elohiym > of your fathers <1> ; for ye shall not prosper
<06743 +tsalach > .



13 : 13 . But Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > caused an ambushment
<03993 +ma>arab > to come <00935 +bow> > about <05437 +cabab >
behind <00310 +>achar > them : so they were before < 06440
+paniym > Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > , and the ambushment <03993
+ma>arab > [ was ] behind <00310 +>achar > them .



13 : 14 And when Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > looked <06437 +panah >
back <06437 +panah > , behold <02009 +hinneh > , the battle
<04421 +milchamah > [ was ] before <06440 +paniym > and behind
<00268 +>achowr > : and they cried <06817 +tsa<aq > unto the
LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , and the priests <03548 +kohen > sounded
<02690 +chatsar > with the trumpets <02689 +chatsots@rah > .



13 : 15 Then the men <00376 +>iysh > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah >
gave a shout <07321 +ruwa< > : and as the men <00376 +>iysh > of
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > shouted <07321 +ruwa< > , it came
<01961 +hayah > to pass , that God <00430 +>elohiym > smote
<05062 +nagaph > Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > and all <03605 +kol

and Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > .



13 : 16 And the children <01121 +ben > of Israel <03478
+Yisra>el > fled <05127 +nuwc > before <06440 +paniym > Judah
<03063 +Y@huwdah > : and God <00430 +>elohiym > delivered <05414
+nathan > them into their hand <03027 +yad > .



13 : 17 And Abijah <29> and his people <05971 +<am > slew <05221
+nakah > them with a great <07227 +rab > slaughter < 04347
+makkah > : so there fell <05307 +naphal > down slain <02491
+chalal > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > five <02568 +chamesh >
hundred <03967 +me>ah > thousand <00505 +>eleph > chosen <00970
+bachuwr > men <00376 +>iysh > .



13 : 18 Thus the children <01121 +ben > of Israel <03478
+Yisra>el > were brought <03665 +kana< > under at that time
<06256 +<eth > , and the children <01121 +ben > of Judah <03063
+Y@huwdah > prevailed <00553 +>amats > , because < 03588 +kiy >
they relied <08172 +sha<an > upon the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > God
<00430 +>elohiym > of their fathers <1> .



13 : 19 And Abijah <29> pursued <07291 +radaph > after <00310
+>achar > Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am > , and took <03920 +lakad >
cities <05892 +<iyr > from him , Bethel <01008 +Beyth - >El >
with the towns <01323 +bath > thereof , and Jeshanah < 03466
+Y@shanah > with the towns <01323 +bath > thereof , and Ephrain
<06085 +<Ephrown > with the towns <01323 +bath > thereof .



13 : 20 Neither <03808 +lo> > did Jeroboam <03379 +Yarob<am >
recover <06113 +<atsar > strength <03581 +koach > again <05750
+<owd > in the days <03117 +yowm > of Abijah < 29> : and the LORD
<03068 +Y@hovah > struck <05062 +nagaph > him , and he died
<04191 +muwth > .



13 : 21 But Abijah <29> waxed mighty <02388 +chazaq > , and
married <05375 +nasa> > fourteen wives <00802 +> ishshah > , and
begat <03205 +yalad > twenty <06242 +<esriym > and two <08147
+sh@nayim > sons <01121 +ben > , and sixteen daughters <01121
+ben > .



13 : 22 And the rest <03499 +yether > of the acts <01697 +dabar

sayings <01697 +dabar > , [ are ] written <03789 +kathab > in
the story <04097 +midrash > of the prophet <05030 +nabiy> > Iddo
<05714 +<Iddow > .



14 : 01 . So Abijah <29> slept <07901 +shakab > with his
fathers <1> , and they buried <06912 +qabar > him in the city
<05892 +<iyr > of David <01732 +David > : and Asa <00609 +>Aca>

<08478 +tachath > . In his days <03117 +yowm > the land <00776

14 : 02 And Asa <00609 +>Aca> > did <06213 +< asah > [ that which

14 : 03 For he took <05493 +cuwr > away <05493 +cuwr > the
altars <04196 +mizbeach > of the strange <05236 +nekar > [ gods

14 : 04 And commanded <00559 +>amar > Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah >
to seek <01875 +darash > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > God <00430

law <08451 +towrah > and the commandment <04687 +mitsvah > .



14 : 05 Also he took <05493 +cuwr > away <05493 +cuwr > out of
all <03605 +kol > the cities <05892 +<iyr > of Judah <03063
+Y@huwdah > the high <01116 +bamah > places and the images : and
the kingdom <04467 +mamlakah > was quiet <08252 +shaqat > before

14 : 06 And he built <01129 +banah > fenced <04694 +m@tsuwrah >
cities <05892 +<iyr > in Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > : for the land
<00776 +>erets > had rest <08252 +shaqat > , and he had no

14 : 07 Therefore he said <00559 +>amar > unto Judah < 03063

the land <00776 +>erets > [ is ] yet <05750 +<owd > before

prospered <06743 +tsalach > .



14 : 08 And Asa <00609 +>Aca> > had <01961 +hayah > an army

14 : 09 . And there came out against <00413 +>el > them Zerah

14 : 10 Then Asa <00609 +>Aca> > went <03318 +yatsa> > out

14 : 11 And Asa <00609 +>Aca> > cried <07121 +qara> > unto the

14 : 12 So the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > smote <05062 +nagaph > the
Ethiopians <3569Kuwshiy > before <06440 +paniym > Asa <00609

overthrown <05307 +naphal > , that they could not recover <04241

14 : 14 And they smote <05221 +nakah > all <03605 +kol > the

for there was exceeding <07325 +ruwr > much <07235 +rabah >

14 : 15 They smote <05221 +nakah > also <01571 +gam > the tents

15 : 01 . And the Spirit <07307 +ruwach > of God <00430

15 : 03 Now for a long <07227 +rab > season <03117 +yowm >
Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > [ hath been ] without < 03808 +lo> >

15 : 04 But when they in their trouble <06862 +tsar > did turn

15 : 05 And in those <01992 +hem > times [ there was ] no <00369

15 : 06 And nation <01471 +gowy > was destroyed <03807 +kathath

15 : 07 Be ye strong <02388 +chazaq > therefore , and let not
your hands <03027 +yad > be weak <07503 +raphah > : for your

15 : 08 . And when Asa <00609 +>Aca> > heard < 08085 +shama< >
these <00428 +>el - leh > words <01697 +dabar > , and the

porch <00197 +>uwlam > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > .



15 : 09 And he gathered <06908 +qabats > all <03605 +kol > Judah
<03063 +Y@huwdah > and Benjamin <01144 +Binyamiyn > , and the

when they saw <07200 +ra>ah > that the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah >

15 : 10 So they gathered <06908 +qabats > themselves together at
Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > in the third <07992 +sh@liyshiy

15 : 11 And they offered <02076 +zabach > unto the LORD < 03068

15 : 12 And they entered <00935 +bow> > into a covenant <01285

15 : 14 And they sware <07650 +shaba< > unto the LORD <03068

15 : 15 And all <03605 +kol > Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > rejoiced

gave them rest <05117 +nuwach > round <05439 +cabiyb > about .



15 : 16 And also <01571 +gam > [ concerning ] Maachah < 04601

the brook <05158 +nachal > Kidron <06939 +Qidrown > .



15 : 17 But the high <01116 +bamah > places were not taken
<05493 +cuwr > away <05493 +cuwr > out of Israel < 03478

15 : 18 And he brought <00935 +bow> > into the house < 01004

15 : 19 And there was no <03808 +lo> > [ more ] war < 04421

16 : 01 . In the six <08337 +shesh > and thirtieth < 07970

16 : 02 Then Asa <00609 +>Aca> > brought <03318 +yatsa> > out

16 : 03 [ There is ] a league <01285 +b@riyth > between < 00996

16 : 04 And Benhadad <01130 +Ben - Hadad > hearkened < 08085

16 : 05 And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , when Baasha <01201

16 : 08 Were not the Ethiopians <03569 +Kuwshiy > and the Lubims

18 : 23 Then Zedekiah <06667 +Tsidqiyah > the son <01121 +ben >

18 : 24 And Micaiah <04321 +Miykay@huw > said <00559 +>amar > ,

18 : 25 Then the king <04428 +melek > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el

18 : 26 And say <00559 +>amar > , Thus <03541 +koh > saith

18 : 27 And Micaiah <04321 +Miykay@huw > said <00559 +>amar > ,
If <00518 +>im > thou certainly return <07725 +shuwb > in peace

Hearken <08085 +shama< > , all <03605 +kol > ye people <05971

18 : 28 . So the king <04428 +melek > of Israel <03478

<04428 +melek > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > went < 05927 +<alah >
up to Ramothgilead <07433 +Ramowth > .



18 : 29 And the king <04428 +melek > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el

<04421 +milchamah > .



18 : 30 Now the king <04428 +melek > of Syria <00758 +>Aram >
had commanded <06680 +tsavah > the captains <08269 +sar > of the

.



18 : 31 And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , when the captains

18 : 32 For it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , that , when the

18 : 33 And a [ certain ] man drew <04900 +mashak > a bow <07198

18 : 34 And the battle <04421 +milchamah > increased < 05927

the sun <08121 +shemesh > going <00935 +bow> > down he died

19 : 01 . And Jehoshaphat <03092 +Y@howshaphat > the king

19 : 02 And Jehu <03058 +Yehuw> > the son <01121 +ben > of

19 : 03 Nevertheless <61> there are good <02896 +towb > things

19 : 04 And Jehoshaphat <03092 +Y@howshaphat > dwelt < 03427

19 : 05 . And he set <05975 +<amad > judges <08199 +shaphat >

19 : 07 Wherefore now <06258 +<attah > let the fear < 06343

20 : 16 To morrow <04279 +machar > go <03381 +yarad > ye down

20 : 17 Ye shall not [ need ] to fight <03898 +lacham > in this

stand <05975 +<amad > ye [ still ] , and see <07200 +ra>ah > the

20 : 18 And Jehoshaphat <03092 +Y@howshaphat > bowed < 06915

<00776 +>erets > : and all <03605 +kol > Judah < 03063 +Y@huwdah

20 : 19 And the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > , of the children
<01121 +ben > of the Kohathites <06956 +Qohathiy > , and of the
children <01121 +ben > of the Korhites <07145 +Qorchiy > , stood

20 : 20 . And they rose <07925 +shakam > early <07925 +shakam >

20 : 21 And when he had consulted <03289 +ya<ats > with the
people <05971 +<am > , he appointed <05975 +<amad > singers
<07891 +shiyr > unto the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , and that

20 : 22 And when <06256 +<eth > they began <02490 +chalal > to
sing <07440 +rinnah > and to praise <08416 +t@hillah > , the
LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > set <05414 +nathan > ambushments <00693

.



20 : 23 For the children <01121 +ben > of Ammon <05983 +<Ammown

and destroy <08045 +shamad > [ them ] : and when they had made
an end <03615 +kalah > of the inhabitants <03427 +yashab > of
Seir <08165 +Se<iyr > , every <00376 +>iysh > one helped <05826

20 : 24 And when Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > came <00935 +bow> >
toward <05921 +<al > the watch <04707 +mitspeh > tower in the
wilderness <04057 +midbar > , they looked <06437 +panah > unto
the multitude <01995 +hamown > , and , behold <02009 +hinneh > ,
they [ were ] dead <06297 +peger > bodies <06297 +peger > fallen
<05307 +naphal > to the earth <00776 +>erets > , and none <00369

20 : 25 And when Jehoshaphat <03092 +Y@howshaphat > and his
people <05971 +<am > came <00935 +bow> > to take <00962 +bazaz >
away the spoil <07998 +shalal > of them , they found < 04672
+matsa> > among them in abundance <07230 +rob > both riches
<07399 +r@kuwsh > with the dead <06297 +peger > bodies <06297

which they stripped <05337 +natsal > off for themselves , more
than they could carry <04853 +massa> > away : and they were
three <07969 +shalowsh > days <03117 +yowm > in gathering <00962
+bazaz > of the spoil <07998 +shalal > , it was so much <07227
+rab > .



20 : 26 And on the fourth <07243 +r@biy<iy > day < 03117 +yowm >
they assembled <06950 +qahal > themselves in the valley < 06010
+<emeq > of Berachah <01294 +B@rakah > ; for there <08033 +sham

therefore the name <08034 +shem > of the same <01931 +huw> >
place <04725 +maqowm > was called <07121 +qara> > , The valley
<06010 +<emeq > of Berachah <01294 +B@rakah > , unto this <02088
+zeh > day <03117 +yowm > .



20 : 27 Then they returned <07725 +shuwb > , every < 03605 +kol >
man <00376 +>iysh > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > and Jerusalem
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > , and Jehoshaphat <03092 +Y@howshaphat >
in the forefront <07218 +ro>sh > of them , to go < 07725 +shuwb >
again <07725 +shuwb > to Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > with
joy <08057 +simchah > ; for the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > had made
them to rejoice <08055 +samach > over their enemies < 00341
+>oyeb > .



20 : 28 And they came <00935 +bow> > to Jerusalem < 03389
+Y@ruwshalaim > with psalteries <05035 +nebel > and harps <03658
+kinnowr > and trumpets <02689 +chatsots@rah > unto the house
<01004 +bayith > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > .



20 : 29 And the fear <06343 +pachad > of God <00430 +> elohiym >
was on <05921 +<al > all <03605 +kol > the kingdoms <04467
+mamlakah > of [ those ] countries <00776 +>erets > , when they
had heard <08085 +shama< > that the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah >
fought <03898 +lacham > against <05973 +<im > the enemies <00341

20 : 30 So the realm <04438 +malkuwth > of Jehoshaphat < 03092
+Y@howshaphat > was quiet <08252 +shaqat > : for his God <00430
+>elohiym > gave him rest <05117 +nuwach > round < 05439 +cabiyb

20 : 31 . And Jehoshaphat <03092 +Y@howshaphat > reigned <04427
+malak > over <05921 +<al > Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > : [ he was
] thirty <07970 +sh@lowshiym > and five <02568 +chamesh > years
<08141 +shaneh > old <01121 +ben > when he began to reign <04427
+malak > , and he reigned <04427 +malak > twenty < 06242 +<esriym

<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > . And his mother s <00517 +> em > name
<08034 +shem > [ was ] Azubah <05806 +<Azuwbah > the daughter
<01323 +bath > of Shilhi <07977 +Shilchiy > .



20 : 32 And he walked <03212 +yalak > in the way <01870 +derek >
of Asa <00609 +>Aca> > his father <25> , and departed <05493
+cuwr > not from it , doing <06213 +<asah > [ that which was ]
right <03477 +yashar > in the sight <05869 +<ayin > of the LORD
<03068 +Y@hovah > .



20 : 33 Howbeit the high <01116 +bamah > places were not taken
<05493 +cuwr > away <05493 +cuwr > : for as yet < 05750 +<owd >
the people <05971 +<am > had not prepared <03559 +kuwn > their
hearts <03824 +lebab > unto the God <00430 +>elohiym > of their
fathers <1> .



20 : 34 Now the rest <03499 +yether > of the acts <01697 +dabar

[ are ] written <03789 +kathab > in the book <01697 +dabar > of
Jehu <03058 +Yehuw> > the son <01121 +ben > of Hanani <02607
+Chananiy > , who <00834 +>aher > [ is ] mentioned <05927 +<alah

Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > .



20 : 35 And after <00310 +>achar > this <03651 +ken > did
Jehoshaphat <03092 +Y@howshaphat > king <04428 +melek > of Judah
<03063 +Y@huwdah > join <02266 +chabar > himself with Ahaziah
<00274 +>Achazyah > king <04428 +melek > of Israel <03478
+Yisra>el > , who <01931 +huw> > did <06213 +<asah > very
wickedly <07561 +rasha< > :



20 : 36 And he joined <02266 +chabar > himself with him to make
<06213 +<asah > ships<00591 +>oniyah > to go <03212 +yalak > to
Tarshish <08659 +Tarshiysh > : and they made <06213 +< asah > the
ships <00591 +>oniyah > in Eziongeber <06100 +< Etsyown <Etsyon
Geber > .



20 : 37 Then Eliezer <00461 +>Eliy<ezer > the son < 01121 +ben >
of Dodavah <01735 +Dowdavahuw > of Mareshah <04762 +Mar>eshah >
prophesied <05012 +naba> > against <05921 +<al > Jehoshaphat
<03092 +Y@howshaphat > , saying <00559 +>amar > , Because thou
hast joined <02266 +chabar > thyself with Ahaziah <00274
+>Achazyah > , the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > hath broken <06555
+parats > thy works <04639 +ma<aseh > . And the ships <00591
+>oniyah > were broken <07665 +shabar > , that they were not
able <06113 +<atsar > to go <03212 +yalak > to Tarshish <08659
+Tarshiysh > .



21 : 01 . Now Jehoshaphat <03092 +Y@howshaphat > slept < 07901
+shakab > with his fathers <1> , and was buried < 06912 +qabar >
with his fathers <1> in the city <05892 +<iyr > of David <01732
+David > . And Jehoram <03088 +Y@howram > his son < 01121 +ben >
reigned <04427 +malak > in his stead <08478 +tachath > .



21 : 02 And he had brethren <00251 +>ach > the sons < 01121 +ben

+<Azaryah > , and Jehiel <03171 +Y@chiy>el > , and Zechariah
<02148 +Z@karyah > , and Azariah <05838 +<Azaryah > , and
Michael <04317 +Miyka>el > , and Shephatiah <08203 +Sh@phatyah >
: all <03605 +kol > these <00428 +>el - leh > [ were ] the sons
<01121 +ben > of Jehoshaphat <03092 +Y@howshaphat > king <04428
+melek > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > .



21 : 03 And their father <25> gave <05414 +nathan > them great
<07227 +rab > gifts <04979 +mattanah > of silver < 03701 +keceph

+migdanah > things , with fenced <04694 +m@tsuwrah > cities
<05892 +<iyr > in Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > : but the kingdom
<04467 +mamlakah > gave <05414 +nathan > he to Jehoram <03088
+Y@howram > ; because <03588 +kiy > he [ was ] the firstborn
<01060 +b@kowr > .



21 : 04 Now when Jehoram <03088 +Y@howram > was risen < 06965
+quwm > up to the kingdom <04467 +mamlakah > of his father <25> ,
he strengthened <02388 +chazaq > himself , and slew < 02026
+harag > all <03605 +kol > his brethren <00251 +> ach > with the
sword <02719 +chereb > , and [ divers ] also <01571 +gam > of
the princes <08269 +sar > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > .



21 : 05 Jehoram <03088 +Y@howram > [ was ] thirty <07970
+sh@lowshiym > and two <08147 +sh@nayim > years < 08141 +shaneh >
old <01121 +ben > when he began to reign <04427 +malak > , and
he reigned <04427 +malak > eight <08083 +sh@moneh > years <08141
+shaneh > in Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > .



21 : 06 And he walked <03212 +yalak > in the way <01870 +derek >
of the kings <04428 +melek > of Israel <03478 +Yisra> el > , like
as did <06213 +<asah > the house <01004 +bayith > of Ahab <00256
+>Ach>ab > : for he had <01961 +hayah > the daughter <01323
+bath > of Ahab <00256 +>Ach>ab > to wife < 00802 +>ishshah > :
and he wrought <06213 +<asah > [ that which was ] evil <07451
+ra< > in the eyes <05869 +<ayin > of the LORD < 03068 +Y@hovah >
.



21 : 07 Howbeit the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > would <14> not
destroy <07843 +shachath > the house <01004 +bayith > of David
<01732 +David > , because <03282 +ya<an > of the covenant <01285
+b@riyth > that he had made <03772 +karath > with David <01732
+David > , and as he promised <00559 +>amar > to give <05414
+nathan > a light <05216 +niyr > to him and to his sons <01121

21 : 08 In his days <03117 +yowm > the Edomites <00130 +>Edomiy

dominion <03027 +yad > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > , and made
themselves <01992 +hem > a king <04428 +melek > .



21 : 09 Then Jehoram <03088 +Y@howram > went <05674 +< abar >
forth <05674 +<abar > with his princes <08269 +sar > , and all
<03605 +kol > his chariots <07393 +rekeb > with him : and he
rose <06965 +quwm > up by night <03915 +layil > , and smote
<05221 +nakah > the Edomites <00130 +>Edomiy > which compassed
<05437 +cabab > him in , and the captains <08269 +sar > of the
chariots <07393 +rekeb > .



21 : 10 So the Edomites <00130 +>Edomiy > revolted < 06586
+pasha< > from under <08478 +tachath > the hand < 03027 +yad > of
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > unto this <02088 +zeh > day <03117

did Libnah <03841 +Libnah > revolt <06586 +pasha< > from under
<08478 +tachath > his hand <03027 +yad > ; because <03588 +kiy >
he had forsaken <05800 +<azab > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > God
<00430 +>elohiym > of his fathers <1> .



21 : 11 Moreover <01571 +gam > he made <06213 +<asah > high
<01116 +bamah > places in the mountains <02022 +har > of Judah
<03063 +Y@huwdah > , and caused the inhabitants <03427 +yashab >
of Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > to commit <02181 +zanah >
fornication <02181 +zanah > , and compelled <05080 +nadach >
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > [ thereto ] .



21 : 12 . And there came <00935 +bow> > a writing < 04385
+miktab > to him from Elijah <00452 +>Eliyah > the prophet
<05030 +nabiy> > , saying <00559 +>amar > , Thus <03541 +koh >
saith <00559 +>amar > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > God <00430

thou hast not walked <01980 +halak > in the ways <01870 +derek >
of Jehoshaphat <03092 +Y@howshaphat > thy father <25> , nor in
the ways <01870 +derek > of Asa <00609 +>Aca> > king <04428
+melek > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > ,



21 : 13 But hast walked <03212 +yalak > in the way < 01870 +derek

and hast made Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > and the inhabitants
<03427 +yashab > of Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > to go a
whoring <02181 +zanah > , like to the whoredoms <02181 +zanah >
of the house <01004 +bayith > of Ahab <00256 +>Ach> ab > , and
also <01571 +gam > hast slain <02026 +harag > thy brethren
<00251 +>ach > of thy father s <1> house <01004 +bayith > , [
which were ] better <02896 +towb > than thyself :



21 : 14 Behold <02009 +hinneh > , with a great <01419 +gadowl >
plague <04046 +maggephah > will the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > smite
<05062 +nagaph > thy people <05971 +<am > , and thy children

<03605 +kol > thy goods <07399 +r@kuwsh > :



21 : 15 And thou [ shalt have ] great <07227 +rab > sickness
<02483 +choliy > by disease <04245 +machaleh > of thy bowels
<04578 +me<ah > , until <05704 +<ad > thy bowels <04578 +me<ah >

21 : 16 Moreover the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > stirred < 05782 +<uwr

21 : 17 And they came <05927 +<alah > up into Judah < 03063

21 : 19 And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , that in process of
time <03117 +yowm > , after the end <07093 +qets > of two <08147

21 : 20 Thirty <07970 +sh@lowshiym > and two <08147 +sh@nayim >
years old <01121 +ben > was he when he began to reign < 04427

him in the city <05892 +<iyr > of David <01732 +David > , but
not in the sepulchres <06913 +qeber > of the kings < 04428 +melek

22 : 01 . And the inhabitants <03427 +yashab > of Jerusalem
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > made Ahaziah <00274 +>Achazyah > his
youngest <06996 +qatan > son <01121 +ben > king < 04427 +malak >

Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > reigned <04427 +malak > .



22 : 02 Forty <00705 +>arba<iym > and two <08147 +sh@nayim >

22 : 03 He also <01571 +gam > walked <01980 +halak > in the ways
<01870 +derek > of the house <01004 +bayith > of Ahab <00256

<03289 +ya<ats > to do wickedly <07561 +rasha< > .



22 : 04 Wherefore he did <06213 +<asah > evil <07451 +ra< > in
the sight <05869 +<ayin > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > like the
house <01004 +bayith > of Ahab <00256 +>Ach>ab > : for they were

<04889 +mashchiyth > .



22 : 05 He walked <01980 +halak > also <01571 +gam > after their
counsel <06098 +<etsah > , and went <03212 +yalak > with Jehoram

22 : 06 And he returned <07725 +shuwb > to be healed < 07495

king <04428 +melek > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > went <03381

.



22 : 07 And the destruction <08395 +t@buwcah > of Ahaziah <00274

the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > had anointed <04886 +mashach > to cut
<03772 +karath > off the house <01004 +bayith > of Ahab <00256

.



22 : 08 And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , that , when Jehu
<03058 +Yehuw> > was executing judgment <08196 +sh@phowt > upon
the house <01004 +bayith > of Ahab <00256 +>Ach>ab > , and found

22 : 09 And he sought <01245 +baqash > Ahaziah <00274 +>Achazyah

<2244> in Samaria <08111 +Shom@rown > , ) and brought <00935

<04191 +muwth > him , they buried <06912 +qabar > him : Because
<03588 +kiy > , said <00559 +>amar > they , he [ is ] the son

the kingdom <04467 +mamlakah > .



22 : 10 . But when Athaliah <06271 +<Athalyah > the mother
<00517 +>em > of Ahaziah <00274 +>Achazyah > saw <07200 +ra>ah >
that her son <01121 +ben > was dead <04191 +muwth > , she arose

the seed <02233 +zera< > royal <04467 +mamlakah > of the house
<01004 +bayith > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > .



22 : 11 But Jehoshabeath <03090 +Y@howshab<ath > , the daughter
of the king <04428 +melek > , took <03947 +laqach > Joash <03101

and stole <01589 +ganab > him from among <08432 +tavek > the
king s <04428 +melek > sons <01121 +ben > that were slain <04191
+muwth > , and put <05414 +nathan > him and his nurse <03243

+Y@howshab<ath > , the daughter <01323 +bath > of king <04428

22 : 12 And he was with them hid <2244> in the house < 01004
+bayith > of God <00430 +>elohiym > six <08337 +shesh > years
<08141 +shaneh > : and Athaliah <06271 +<Athalyah > reigned
<04427 +malak > over <05921 +<al > the land < 00776 +>erets > .



23 : 01 . And in the seventh <07637 +sh@biy<iy > year <08141
+shaneh > Jehoiada <03111 +Yowyada< > strengthened <02388
+chazaq > himself , and took <03947 +laqach > the captains

and Ishmael <03458 +Yishma<e>l > the son <01121 +ben > of
Jehohanan <03076 +Y@howchanan > , and Azariah <05838 +<Azaryah >
the son <01121 +ben > of Obed <05744 +<Owbed > , and Maaseiah

23 : 02 And they went <05437 +cabab > about <05437 +cabab > in
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > , and gathered <06908 +qabats > the
Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > out of all <03605 +kol > the cities

and they came <00935 +bow> > to Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim

23 : 03 And all <03605 +kol > the congregation <06951 +qahal >
made <03772 +karath > a covenant <01285 +b@riyth > with the king
<04428 +melek > in the house <01004 +bayith > of God <00430

said <01696 +dabar > of the sons <01121 +ben > of David <01732

23 : 04 This <02088 +zeh > [ is ] the thing <01697 +dabar > that
ye shall do <06213 +<asah > ; A third <07992 +sh@liyshiy > part

<05592 +caph > ;



23 : 05 And a third <07992 +sh@liyshiy > part [ shall be ] at
the king s <04428 +melek > house <01004 +bayith > ; and a third

the house <01004 +bayith > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > .



23 : 06 But let none <00408 +>al > come <00935 +bow> > into the
house <01004 +bayith > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , save the

23 : 07 And the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > shall compass < 05362

when he cometh <00935 +bow> > in , and when he goeth < 03318

.



23 : 08 So the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > and all <03605 +kol >
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > did <06213 +<asah > according to all

on the sabbath <07676 +shabbath > : for Jehoiada <03111
+Yowyada< > the priest <03548 +kohen > dismissed < 06362 +patar >
not the courses <04256 +machaloqeth > .



23 : 09 Moreover Jehoiada <03111 +Yowyada< > the priest <03548
+kohen > delivered <05414 +nathan > to the captains < 08269 +sar

23 : 10 And he set <05975 +<amad > all <03605 +kol > the people

23 : 11 Then they brought <03318 +yatsa> > out the king s <04428

the crown <05145 +nezer > , and [ gave him ] the testimony

23 : 12 . Now when Athaliah <06271 +<Athalyah > heard <08085

running <07323 +ruwts > and praising <01984 +halal > the king

23 : 13 And she looked <07200 +ra>ah > , and , behold <02009

and all <03605 +kol > the people <05971 +<am > of the land
<00776 +>erets > rejoiced <08056 +sameach > , and sounded <08628

of musick <07892 +shiyr > , and such as taught <03045 +yada< >
to sing <01984 +halal > praise <01984 +halal > . Then Athaliah
<06271 +<Athalyah > rent <07167 +qara< > her clothes <00899

Treason <07195 +qesher > .



23 : 14 Then Jehoiada <03111 +Yowyada< > the priest < 03548

Have <03318 +yatsa> > her forth <03318 +yatsa> > of the ranges

23 : 15 So they laid <07760 +suwm > hands <03027 +yad > on her ;
and when she was come <00935 +bow> > to the entering < 03996

23 : 16 And Jehoiada <03111 +Yowyada< > made <03772 +karath > a

23 : 17 Then all <03605 +kol > the people <05971 +<am > went

23 : 18 Also Jehoiada <03111 +Yowyada< > appointed < 07760 +suwm

24 : 05 And he gathered <06908 +qabats > together the priests

24 : 08 And at the king s <04428 +melek > commandment < 00559

24 : 11 Now it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , that at what time

24 : 12 And the king <04428 +melek > and Jehoiada <03111

24 : 13 So the workmen wrought <06213 +<asah > , and the work

24 : 14 And when they had finished <03615 +kalah > [ it ] , they

24 : 15 . But Jehoiada <03111 +Yowyada< > waxed old < 02204

24 : 16 And they buried <06912 +qabar > him in the city < 05892

24 : 17 Now after <00310 +>achar > the death <04194 +maveth > of
Jehoiada <03111 +Yowyada< > came <00935 +bow> > the princes
<08269 +sar > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > , and made obeisance

<04428 +melek > hearkened <08085 +shama< > unto them .



24 : 18 And they left <05800 +<azab > the house < 01004 +bayith >
of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > God <00430 +>elohiym > of their
fathers <1> , and served <05647 +<abad > groves <00842 +>asherah

24 : 19 Yet he sent <07971 +shalach > prophets <05030 +nabiy> >
to them , to bring <07725 +shuwb > them again <07725 +shuwb >

24 : 20 And the Spirit <07307 +ruwach > of God <00430 +>elohiym

hath also forsaken <05800 +<azab > you .



24 : 21 And they conspired <07194 +qashar > against < 05921 +<al

commandment <04687 +mitsvah > of the king <04428 +melek > in the
court <02691 +chatser > of the house <01004 +bayith > of the
LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > .



24 : 22 Thus Joash <03101 +Yow>ash > the king <04428 +melek >
remembered <02142 +zakar > not the kindness <02617 +checed >
which <00834 +>aher > Jehoiada <03111 +Yowyada< > his father
<25> had done <06213 +<asah > to him , but slew <02026 +harag >
his son <01121 +ben > . And when he died <04191 +muwth > , he
said <00559 +>amar > , The LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > look <07200

24 : 23 And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass at the end < 08622
+t@quwphah > of the year <08141 +shaneh > , [ that ] the host
<02428 +chayil > of Syria <00758 +>Aram > came < 05927 +<alah >

Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > and Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > ,
and destroyed <07843 +shachath > all <03605 +kol > the princes

spoil <07998 +shalal > of them unto the king <04428 +melek > of
Damascus <01834 +Dammeseq > .



24 : 24 For the army <02428 +chayil > of the Syrians < 00758

because <03588 +kiy > they had forsaken <05800 +<azab > the LORD

So they executed <06213 +<asah > judgment <08201 +shephet >
against Joash <03101 +Yow>ash > .



24 : 25 And when they were departed <03212 +yalak > from him , (
for they left <05800 +<azab > him in great <07227 +rab >
diseases <04251 +machluy > , ) his own <00249 +> ezrach >
servants <05650 +<ebed > conspired <07194 +qashar > against

, and slew <02026 +harag > him on <05921 +<al > his bed <04296

+qabar > him in the city <05892 +<iyr > of David < 01732 +David >
, but they buried <06912 +qabar > him not in the sepulchres
<06913 +qeber > of the kings <04428 +melek > .



24 : 26 And these <00428 +>el - leh > are they that conspired

24 : 27 Now [ concerning ] his sons <01121 +ben > , and the
greatness <07230 +rob > of the burdens <04853 +massa> > [ laid ]
upon him , and the repairing <03247 +y@cowd > of the house

25 : 01 . Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > [ was ] twenty <06242

25 : 02 And he did <06213 +<asah > [ that which was ] right
<03477 +yashar > in the sight <05869 +<ayin > of the LORD <03068
+Y@hovah > , but not with a perfect <08003 +shalem > heart
<03824 +lebab > .



25 : 03 Now it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , when < 00834 +>aher

25 : 04 But he slew <04191 +muwth > not their children < 01121

the law <08451 +towrah > in the book <05612 +cepher > of Moses

.



25 : 05 Moreover Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > gathered <06908

25 : 06 He hired <07936 +sakar > also an hundred <03967 +me>ah >

<04428 +melek > , let not the army <06635 +tsaba> > of Israel
<03478 +Yisra>el > go <00935 +bow> > with thee ; for the LORD

to wit , with ] all <03605 +kol > the children <01121 +ben > of
Ephraim <00669 +>Ephrayim > .



25 : 08 But if <00518 +>im > thou wilt go <00935 +bow> > , do
<06213 +<asah > [ it ] , be strong <02388 +chazaq > for the
battle <04421 +milchamah > : God <00430 +>elohiym > shall make

power <03581 +koach > to help <05826 +<azar > , and to cast
<03782 +kashal > down <03782 +kashal > .



25 : 09 And Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > said <00559 +>amar > to
the man <00376 +>iysh > of God <00430 +>elohiym > , But what
<04100 +mah > shall we do <06213 +<asah > for the hundred <03967

more <07235 +rabah > than this <02088 +zeh > .



25 : 10 Then Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > separated < 00914 +badal

<00935 +bow> > to him out of Ephraim <00669 +> Ephrayim > , to go
<03212 +yalak > home <04725 +maqowm > again : wherefore their
anger <00639 +>aph > was greatly <03966 +m@<od > kindled <02734

<07725 +shuwb > home <04725 +maqowm > in great < 02750 +choriy >
anger <00639 +>aph > .



25 : 11 And Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > strengthened < 02388
+chazaq > himself , and led <05090 +nahag > forth his people
<05971 +<am > , and went <03212 +yalak > to the valley <01516

the children <01121 +ben > of Seir <08165 +Se<iyr > ten <06235

25 : 12 And [ other ] ten <06235 +<eser > thousand < 00505

captive <07617 +shabah > , and brought <00935 +bow> > them unto
the top <07218 +ro>sh > of the rock <05553 +cela< > , and cast
<07993 +shalak > them down from the top <07218 +ro>sh > of the
rock <05553 +cela< > , that they all <03605 +kol > were broken
<01234 +baqa< > in pieces .



25 : 13 But the soldiers <01121 +ben > of the army < 01416
+g@duwd > which <00834 +>aher > Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > sent
<07725 +shuwb > back <07725 +shuwb > , that they should not go
<03212 +yalak > with him to battle <04421 +milchamah > , fell
<06584 +pashat > upon the cities <05892 +<iyr > of Judah <03063

Bethhoron <01032 +Beyth Chowrown > , and smote <05221 +nakah >
three <07969 +shalowsh > thousand <00505 +>eleph > of them , and
took much <07227 +rab > spoil <00961 +bizzah > .



25 : 14 . Now it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , after < 00310

himself before <06440 +paniym > them , and burned <06999 +qatar

25 : 15 Wherefore the anger <00639 +>aph > of the LORD <03068
+Y@hovah > was kindled <02734 +charah > against Amaziah <00558
+>Amatsyah > , and he sent <07971 +shalach > unto him a prophet
<05030 +nabiy> > , which said <00559 +>amar > unto him , Why
<04100 +mah > hast thou sought <01875 +darash > after the gods
<00430 +>elohiym > of the people <05971 +<am > , which <00834
+>aher > could not deliver <05337 +natsal > their own people
<05971 +<am > out of thine hand <03027 +yad > ?



25 : 16 And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , as he talked
<01696 +dabar > with him , that [ the king ] said <00559 +>amar

why <04100 +mah > shouldest thou be smitten <05221 +nakah > ?
Then the prophet <05030 +nabiy> > forbare <02308 +chadal > , and
said <00559 +>amar > , I know <03045 +yada< > that God <00430

+<asah > this <02063 +zo>th > , and hast not hearkened <08085
+shama< > unto my counsel <06098 +<etsah > .



25 : 17 . Then Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > king < 04428 +melek >
of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > took advice <03289 +ya< ats > , and
sent <07971 +shalach > to Joash <03101 +Yow>ash > , the son
<01121 +ben > of Jehoahaz <03059 +Y@how>achaz > , the son <01121

<03478 +Yisra>el > , saying <00559 +>amar > , Come <03212 +yalak

+paniym > .



25 : 18 And Joash <03101 +Yow>ash > king <04428 +melek > of
Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > sent <07971 +shalach > to Amaziah
<00558 +>Amatsyah > king <04428 +melek > of Judah <03063
+Y@huwdah > , saying <00559 +>amar > , The thistle <02336
+chowach > that [ was ] in Lebanon <03844 +L@banown > sent
<07971 +shalach > to the cedar <00730 +>erez > that [ was ] in
Lebanon <03844 +L@banown > , saying <00559 +>amar > , Give
<05414 +nathan > thy daughter <01323 +bath > to my son <01121

+<abar > by a wild <07704 +sadeh > beast <02416 +chay > that [
was ] in Lebanon <03844 +L@banown > , and trode <07429 +ramac >
down the thistle <02336 +chowach > .



25 : 19 Thou sayest <00559 +>amar > , Lo <02009 +hinneh > , thou
hast smitten <05221 +nakah > the Edomites <00130 +> Edomiy > ;
and thine heart <03820 +leb > lifteth <05375 +nasa> > thee up to
boast <03513 +kabad > : abide <03427 +yashab > now <06258

thou meddle <01624 +garah > to [ thine ] hurt <07451 +ra< > ,
that thou shouldest fall <05307 +naphal > , [ even ] thou , and
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > with thee ?



25 : 20 But Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > would not hear <08085
+shama< > ; for it [ came ] of God <00430 +>elohiym > , that he
might deliver <05414 +nathan > them into the hand <03027 +yad >
[ of their enemies ] , because <03588 +kiy > they sought <01875
+darash > after the gods <00430 +>elohiym > of Edom <00123
+>Edom > .



25 : 21 So Joash <03101 +Yow>ash > the king <04428 +melek > of
Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > went <05927 +<alah > up ; and they saw
<07200 +ra>ah > one another in the face <06440 +paniym > , [
both ] he and Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > king <04428 +melek >
of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > , at Bethshemesh <01053 +Beyth
Shemesh > , which <00834 +>aher > [ belongeth ] to Judah <03063
+Y@huwdah > .



25 : 22 And Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > was put to the worse <05062
+nagaph > before <06440 +paniym > Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > ,
and they fled <05127 +nuwc > every man <00376 +>iysh > to his
tent <00168 +>ohel > .



25 : 23 And Joash <03101 +Yow>ash > the king <04428 +melek > of
Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > took <08610 +taphas > Amaziah <00558

the son <01121 +ben > of Joash <03101 +Yow>ash > , the son
<01121 +ben > of Jehoahaz <03059 +Y@how>achaz > , at Bethshemesh
<01053 +Beyth Shemesh > , and brought <00935 +bow> > him to
Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > , and brake <06555 +parats >
down the wall <02346 +chowmah > of Jerusalem <03389

, four <00702 +>arba< > hundred <03967 +me>ah > cubits <00520

25 : 24 And [ he took ] all <03605 +kol > the gold < 02091 +zahab

vessels <03627 +k@liy > that were found <04672 +matsa> > in the

the king s <04428 +melek > house <01004 +bayith > , the hostages
also , and returned <07725 +shuwb > to Samaria <08111 +Shom@rown

25 : 25 And Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > the son < 01121 +ben > of
Joash <03101 +Yow>ash > king <04428 +melek > of Judah <03063

Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > fifteen <06240 +<asar > years <08141
+shaneh >

.



25 : 26 Now the rest <03499 +yether > of the acts <01697 +dabar

last <00314 +>acharown > , behold <02009 +hinneh > , [ are ]
they not written <03789 +kathab > in the book <05612 +cepher >
of the kings <04428 +melek > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > and
Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > ?



25 : 27 Now after the time <06256 +<eth > that Amaziah <00558
+>Amatsyah > did turn <05493 +cuwr > away from following <00310
+>achar > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > they made a conspiracy
<07195 +qesher > against <05921 +<al > him in Jerusalem <03389
+Y@ruwshalaim > ; and he fled <05127 +nuwc > to Lachish <03923
+Lachiysh > : but they sent <07971 +shalach > to Lachish <03923
+Lachiysh > after <00310 +>achar > him , and slew < 04191 +muwth

25 : 28 And they brought <05375 +nasa> > him upon horses <05483
+cuwc > , and buried <06912 +qabar > him with his fathers <1> in
the city <05892 +<iyr > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > .



26 : 01 . Then all <03605 +kol > the people <05971 +< am > of
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > took <03947 +laqach > Uzziah <05818
+<Uzziyah > , who <01931 +huw> > [ was ] sixteen years <08141
+shaneh > old <01121 +ben > , and made him king < 04427 +malak >
in the room <08478 +tachath > of his father <25> Amaziah <00558
+>Amatsyah > .



26 : 02 He built <01129 +banah > Eloth <00359 +> Eylowth > , and
restored <07725 +shuwb > it to Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > , after
<00310 +>achar > that the king <04428 +melek > slept <07901
+shakab > with his fathers <1> .



26 : 03 Sixteen years <08141 +shaneh > old <01121 +ben > [ was ]
Uzziah <05818 +<Uzziyah > when he began to reign < 04427 +malak >
, and he reigned <04427 +malak > fifty <02572 +chamishshiym >
and two <08147 +sh@nayim > years <08141 +shaneh > in Jerusalem
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > . His mother s <00517 +>em > name <08034
+shem > also [ was ] Jecoliah <03203 +Y@kolyah > of Jerusalem
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > .



26 : 04 And he did <06213 +<asah > [ that which was ] right
<03477 +yashar > in the sight <05869 +<ayin > of the LORD <03068
+Y@hovah > , according to all <03605 +kol > that his father <25>
Amaziah <00558 +>Amatsyah > did <06213 +<asah > .



26 : 05 And he sought <01875 +darash > God <00430 +> elohiym > in
the days <03117 +yowm > of Zechariah <02148 +Z@karyah > , who
had understanding <00995 +biyn > in the visions <07200 +ra>ah >
of God <00430 +>elohiym > : and as long <03117 +yowm > as he
sought <01875 +darash > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , God <00430

26 : 06 And he went <03318 +yatsa> > forth <03318 +yatsa> > and
warred <03898 +lacham > against the Philistines <06430
+P@lishtiy > , and brake <06555 +parats > down the wall <02346
+chowmah > of Gath <01661 +Gath > , and the wall < 02346 +chowmah

Ashdod <00795 +>Ashdowd > , and built <01129 +banah > cities
<05892 +<iyr > about Ashdod <00795 +>Ashdowd > , and among the
Philistines <06430 +P@lishtiy > .



26 : 07 And God <00430 +>elohiym > helped <05826 +< azar > him
against <05921 +<al > the Philistines <06430 +P@lishtiy > , and
against <05921 +<al > the Arabians <06163 +<Arabiy > that dwelt
<03427 +yashab > in Gurbaal <01485 +Guwr - Ba<al > , and the
Mehunims <04586 +M@<uwniy > .



26 : 08 And the Ammonites <05984 +<Ammowniy > gave < 05414
+nathan > gifts <04503 +minchah > to Uzziah <05818 +<Uzziyah > :
and his name <08034 +shem > spread <03212 +yalak > abroad [ even
] to the entering <00935 +bow> > in of Egypt <04714 +Mitsrayim >
; for he strengthened <02388 +chazaq > [ himself ] exceedingly
<04605 +ma<al > .



26 : 09 Moreover Uzziah <05818 +<Uzziyah > built < 01129 +banah >
towers <04026 +migdal > in Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > at
<05921 +<al > the corner <06438 +pinnah > gate < 08179 +sha<ar > ,
and at <05921 +<al > the valley <01516 +gay> > gate <08179
+sha<ar > , and at <05921 +<al > the turning < 04740 +maqtsowa< >
[ of the wall ] , and fortified <02388 +chazaq > them .



26 : 10 Also he built <01129 +banah > towers <04026 +migdal > in
the desert <04057 +midbar > , and digged <02672 +chatsab > many
<07227 +rab > wells <00953 +bowr > : for he had < 01961 +hayah >
much <07227 +rab > cattle <00929 +b@hemah > , both in the low

+korem > dressers <03755 +korem > in the mountains < 02022 +har >
, and in Carmel <03760 +Karmel > : for he loved <00157 +>ahab >
husbandry <00127 +>adamah > .



26 : 11 Moreover Uzziah <05818 +<Uzziyah > had an host <02428
+chayil > of fighting <04421 +milchamah > men , that went <03318
+yatsa> > out to war <06635 +tsaba> > by bands < 01416 +g@duwd > ,
according to the number <04557 +micpar > of their account
<06486 +p@quddah > by the hand <03027 +yad > of Jeiel <03273
+Y@<iy>el > the scribe <05608 +caphar > and Maaseiah <04641
+Ma<aseyah > the ruler <07860 +shoter > , under < 05921 +<al >
the hand <03027 +yad > of Hananiah <02608 +Chananyah > , [ one ]
of the king s <04428 +melek > captains <08269 +sar > .



26 : 12 The whole <03605 +kol > number <04557 +micpar > of the
chief <07218 +ro>sh > of the fathers <1> of the mighty <01368
+gibbowr > men of valour <02428 +chayil > [ were ] two thousand
<00505 +>eleph > and six <08337 +shesh > hundred <03967 +me>ah >

.



26 : 13 And under <05921 +<al > their hand <03027 +yad > [ was ]
an army <06635 +tsaba> > , three <07969 +shalowsh > hundred
<03967 +me>ah > thousand <00505 +>eleph > and seven <07651
+sheba< > thousand <00505 +>eleph > and five < 02568 +chamesh >
hundred <03967 +me>ah > , that made <06213 +<asah > war <04421
+milchamah > with mighty <02428 +chayil > power < 03581 +koach > ,
to help <05826 +<azar > the king <04428 +melek > against <05921
+<al > the enemy <00341 +>oyeb > .



26 : 14 And Uzziah <05818 +<Uzziyah > prepared <03559 +kuwn >
for them throughout all <03605 +kol > the host <06635 +tsaba> >
shields <04043 +magen > , and spears <07420 +romach > , and
helmets <03553 +kowba< > , and habergeons <08302 +shiryown > ,
and bows <07198 +qesheth > , and slings <07050 +qela< > [ to
cast ] stones <68> .



26 : 15 And he made <06213 +<asah > in Jerusalem < 03389
+Y@ruwshalaim > engines <02810 +chishshabown > , invented <02803
+chashab > by cunning <02803 +chashab > men , to be on <05921

+pinnah > , to shoot <03384 +yarah > arrows <02671 +chets > and
great <01419 +gadowl > stones <68> withal . And his name <08034
+shem > spread <03318 +yatsa> > far <07350 +rachowq > abroad
<07350 +rachowq > ; for he was marvellously <06381 +pala> >
helped <05826 +<azar > , till he was strong <02388 +chazaq > .



26 : 16 . But when he was strong <02394 +chozqah > , his heart
<03820 +leb > was lifted <01361 +gabahh > up to [ his ]
destruction <07843 +shachath > : for he transgressed < 04603
+ma<al > against the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > his God <00430

26 : 17 And Azariah <05838 +<Azaryah > the priest < 03548 +kohen

26 : 18 And they withstood <05975 +<amad > Uzziah < 05818

26 : 19 Then Uzziah <05818 +<Uzziyah > was wroth < 02196 +za<aph

26 : 20 And Azariah <05838 +<Azaryah > the chief < 07218 +ro>sh >
priest <03548 +kohen > , and all <03605 +kol > the priests
<03548 +kohen > , looked <06437 +panah > upon him , and , behold
<02009 +hinneh > , he [ was ] leprous <06879 +tsara< > in his

out from thence <08033 +sham > ; yea , himself <01931 +huw> >

smitten <05060 +naga< > him .



26 : 21 And Uzziah <05818 +<Uzziyah > the king <04428 +melek >
was a leper <06879 +tsara< > unto the day <03117 +yowm > of his
death <04194 +maveth > , and dwelt <03427 +yashab > in a several

Jotham <03147 +Yowtham > his son <01121 +ben > [ was ] over

judging <08199 +shaphat > the people <05971 +<am > of the land

26 : 22 Now the rest <03499 +yether > of the acts <01697 +dabar

26 : 23 So Uzziah <05818 +<Uzziyah > slept <07901 +shakab > with
his fathers <1> , and they buried <06912 +qabar > him with his
fathers <1> in the field <07704 +sadeh > of the burial <06900
+q@buwrah > which <00834 +>aher > [ belonged ] to the kings

27 : 01 . Jotham <03147 +Yowtham > [ was ] twenty < 06242

Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > . His mother s <00517 +>em >
name <08034 +shem > also [ was ] Jerushah <03388 +Y@ruwsha> > ,
the daughter <01323 +bath > of Zadok <06659 +Tsadowq > .



27 : 02 And he did <06213 +<asah > [ that which was ] right
<03477 +yashar > in the sight <05869 +<ayin > of the LORD <03068
+Y@hovah > , according to all <03605 +kol > that his father <25>
Uzziah <05818 +<Uzziyah > did <06213 +<asah > : howbeit he
entered <00935 +bow> > not into <00413 +>el > the temple <01964

+<am > did yet <05750 +<owd > corruptly <07843 +shachath > .



27 : 03 He built <01129 +banah > the high <05945 +> elyown > gate
<08179 +sha<ar > of the house <01004 +bayith > of the LORD
<03068 +Y@hovah > , and on the wall <02346 +chowmah > of Ophel
<06077 +<Ophel > he built <01129 +banah > much < 07230 +rob > .



27 : 04 Moreover he built <01129 +banah > cities <05892 +<iyr >
in the mountains <02022 +har > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > , and
in the forests <02793 +choresh > he built <01129 +banah >
castles <01003 +biyraniyth > and towers <04026 +migdal > .



27 : 05 He fought <03898 +lacham > also with the king < 04428
+melek > of the Ammonites <05984 +<Ammowniy > , and prevailed
<02388 +chazaq > against <05921 +<al > them . And the children
<01121 +ben > of Ammon <05983 +<Ammown > gave < 05414 +nathan >
him the same <01931 +huw> > year <08141 +shaneh > an hundred

27 : 06 So Jotham <03147 +Yowtham > became <02388 +chazaq >
mighty <02388 +chazaq > , because <03588 +kiy > he prepared
<03559 +kuwn > his ways <01870 +derek > before < 06440 +paniym >
the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > his God <00430 +>elohiym > .



27 : 07 Now the rest <03499 +yether > of the acts <01697 +dabar

27 : 08 He was five <02568 +chamesh > and twenty <06242 +<esriym

reign <04427 +malak > , and reigned <04427 +malak > sixteen

27 : 09 And Jotham <03147 +Yowtham > slept <07901 +shakab > with
his fathers <1> , and they buried <06912 +qabar > him in the
city <05892 +<iyr > of David <01732 +David > : and Ahaz <00271

28 : 01 . Ahaz <00271 +>Achaz > [ was ] twenty < 06242 +<esriym

reign <04427 +malak > , and he reigned <04427 +malak > sixteen
years <08141 +shaneh > in Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > : but
he did <06213 +<asah > not [ that which was ] right < 03477
+yashar > in the sight <05869 +<ayin > of the LORD <03068
+Y@hovah > , like David <01732 +David > his father < 25> :



28 : 02 For he walked <03212 +yalak > in the ways <01870 +derek

and made <06213 +<asah > also <01571 +gam > molten <04541
+maccekah > images for Baalim <01168 +Ba<al > .



28 : 03 Moreover he burnt <06999 +qatar > incense <06999 +qatar

Hinnom <02011 +Hinnom > , and burnt <01197 +ba<ar > his children
<01121 +ben > in the fire <00784 +>esh > , after the
abominations <08441 +tow<ebah > of the heathen <01471 +gowy >
whom <00834 +>aher > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > had cast <03423
+yarash > out before <06440 +paniym > the children < 01121 +ben >
of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el >

.





28 : 04 He sacrificed <02076 +zabach > also and burnt < 06999
+qatar > incense <06999 +qatar > in the high <01116 +bamah >
places , and on <05921 +<al > the hills <01389 +gib<ah > , and
under <08478 +tachath > every <03605 +kol > green < 07488

28 : 05 Wherefore the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > his God < 00430

+yad > of the king <04428 +melek > of Syria <00758 +>Aram > ;
and they smote <05221 +nakah > him , and carried <07617 +shabah

delivered <05414 +nathan > into the hand <03027 +yad > of the
king <04428 +melek > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > , who smote
<05221 +nakah > him with a great <01419 +gadowl > slaughter
<04347 +makkah > .



28 : 06 . For Pekah <06492 +Peqach > the son <01121 +ben > of
Remaliah <07425 +R@malyahuw > slew <02026 +harag > in Judah
<03063 +Y@huwdah > an hundred <03967 +me>ah > and twenty <06242

their fathers <1> .



28 : 07 And Zichri <02147 +Zikriy > , a mighty <01368 +gibbowr >
man of Ephraim <00669 +>Ephrayim > , slew <02026 +harag >
Maaseiah <04641 +Ma<aseyah > the king s <04428 +melek > son

<00511 +>Elqanah > [ that was ] next <04932 +mishneh > to the
king <04428 +melek > .



28 : 08 And the children <01121 +ben > of Israel <03478

from them , and brought <00935 +bow> > the spoil < 07998 +shalal

28 : 09 But a prophet <05030 +nabiy> > of the LORD < 03068
+Y@hovah > was there <08033 +sham > , whose name < 08034 +shem >
[ was ] Oded <05752 +<Owded > : and he went <03318 +yatsa> > out
before <06440 +paniym > the host <06635 +tsaba> > that came
<00935 +bow> > to Samaria <08111 +Shom@rown > , and said <00559

delivered <05414 +nathan > them into your hand <03027 +yad > ,
and ye have slain <02026 +harag > them in a rage <02197 +za<aph

28 : 10 And now <06258 +<attah > ye purpose <00559 +>amar > to
keep <03533 +kabash > under the children <01121 +ben > of Judah
<03063 +Y@huwdah > and Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > for

you , sins <00819 +>ashmah > against the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah >
your God <00430 +>elohiym > ?



28 : 11 Now <06258 +<attah > hear <08085 +shama< > me therefore ,
and deliver <07725 +shuwb > the captives <07633 +shibyah >
again , which <00834 +>aher > ye have taken captive < 07617

<02740 +charown > wrath <00639 +>aph > of the LORD <03068
+Y@hovah > [ is ] upon you .



28 : 12 Then certain <00592 +>aniyah > of the heads of the
children <01121 +ben > of Ephraim <00669 +>Ephrayim > , Azariah
<05838 +<Azaryah > the son <01121 +ben > of Johanan <03076

28 : 13 And said <00559 +>amar > unto them , Ye shall not bring

whereas <03588 +kiy > we have offended <00819 +> ashmah > against

fierce <02740 +charown > wrath <00639 +>aph > against <05921

28 : 14 So the armed <02502 +chalats > men left <05800 +<azab >
the captives <07633 +shibyah > and the spoil <00961 +bizzah >
before <06440 +paniym > the princes <08269 +sar > and all <03605

28 : 15 And the men <00582 +>enowsh > which <00834 +>aher > were
expressed <05344 +naqab > by name <08034 +shem > rose <06965

+na<al > them , and gave them to eat <00398 +>akal > and to
drink <08248 +shaqah > , and anointed <04886 +mashach > them ,
and carried <05095 +nahal > all <03605 +kol > the feeble <03782

28 : 16 . At that time <06256 +<eth > did king < 04428 +melek >
Ahaz <00271 +>Achaz > send <07971 +shalach > unto the kings

28 : 17 For again <05750 +<owd > the Edomites <00130 +>Edomiy >
had come <00935 +bow> > and smitten <05221 +nakah > Judah <03063

28 : 18 The Philistines <06430 +P@lishtiy > also had invaded
<06584 +pashat > the cities <05892 +<iyr > of the low <08219

they dwelt <03427 +yashab > there <08033 +sham > .



28 : 19 For the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > brought <03665 +kana< >
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > low <03665 +kana< > because <05668

Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > ; for he made Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah >
naked <06544 +para< > , and transgressed <04603 +ma<al > sore
against the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > .



28 : 20 And Tilgathpilneser <08407 +Tiglath Pil>ecer > king

strengthened <02388 +chazaq > him not .



28 : 21 For Ahaz <00271 +>Achaz > took away a portion <02505

him not .



28 : 22 And in the time <06256 +<eth > of his distress <06887

28 : 23 For he sacrificed <02076 +zabach > unto the gods <00430

28 : 24 And Ahaz <00271 +>Achaz > gathered <00622 +>acaph >

28 : 26 Now the rest <03499 +yether > of his acts <01697 +dabar

28 : 27 And Ahaz <00271 +>Achaz > slept <07901 +shakab > with

29 : 01 . Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > began to reign < 04427

Zechariah <02148 +Z@karyah > .



29 : 02 And he did <06213 +<asah > [ that which was ] right

29 : 03 He in the first <07223 +ri>shown > year < 08141 +shaneh >
of his reign <04427 +malak > , in the first <07223 +ri>shown >

out of the holy <06944 +qodesh > [ place ] .



29 : 06 For our fathers <1> have trespassed <04603 +ma<al > ,
and done <06213 +<asah > [ that which was ] evil < 07451 +ra< >
in the eyes <05869 +<ayin > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > our

29 : 07 Also <01571 +gam > they have shut <05462 +cagar > up the

29 : 08 Wherefore the wrath <07110 +qetseph > of the LORD <03068
+Y@hovah > was upon Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > and Jerusalem
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > , and he hath delivered <05414 +nathan >

29 : 09 For , lo <02009 +hinneh > , our fathers <1> have fallen

29 : 10 Now <06258 +<attah > [ it is ] in mine heart < 03824

29 : 11 My sons <01121 +ben > , be not now <06258 +< attah >
negligent <07952 +shalah > : for the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > hath

29 : 15 And they gathered <00622 +>acaph > their brethren <00251

29 : 16 And the priests <03548 +kohen > went <00935 +bow> > into
the inner <06441 +p@niymah > part of the house <01004 +bayith >
of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , to cleanse <02891 +taher > [ it

29 : 17 Now they began <02490 +chalal > on the first < 07223

day of the first <07223 +ri>shown > month <02320 +chodesh > they
made an end <03615 +kalah > .



29 : 18 Then they went <00935 +bow> > in to Hezekiah < 02396

, We have cleansed <02891 +taher > all <03605 +kol > the house

29 : 19 Moreover all <03605 +kol > the vessels <03627 +k@liy > ,

29 : 20 . Then Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > the king < 04428

gathered <00622 +>acaph > the rulers <08269 +sar > of the city

29 : 21 And they brought <00935 +bow> > seven <07651 +sheba< >
bullocks <06499 +par > , and seven <07651 +sheba< > rams <00352

29 : 22 So they killed <07819 +shachat > the bullocks < 01241

their hands <03027 +yad > upon them :



29 : 24 And the priests <03548 +kohen > killed <07819 +shachat >
them , and they made reconciliation <02398 +chata> > with their

29 : 25 And he set <05975 +<amad > the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy >

29 : 26 And the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > stood <05975 +<amad >

29 : 27 And Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > commanded < 00559 +>amar

29 : 28 And all <03605 +kol > the congregation <06951 +qahal >

29 : 29 And when they had made an end <03615 +kalah > of
offering <05927 +<alah > , the king <04428 +melek > and all
<03605 +kol > that were present <04672 +matsa> > with him bowed

29 : 30 Moreover Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > the king < 04428

the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > to sing <01984 +halal > praise

29 : 31 Then Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > answered < 06030 +<anah

29 : 32 And the number <04557 +micpar > of the burnt < 05930

29 : 34 But the priests <03548 +kohen > were too few < 04592
+m@<at > , so that they could <03201 +yakol > not flay <06584
+pashat > all <03605 +kol > the burnt <05930 +< olah > offerings :
wherefore their brethren <00251 +>ach > the Levites < 03881

the work <04399 +m@la>kah > was ended <03615 +kalah > , and
until <05704 +<ad > the [ other ] priests <03548 +kohen > had

<03824 +lebab > to sanctify <06942 +qadash > themselves than the
priests <03548 +kohen > .



29 : 35 And also <01571 +gam > the burnt <05930 +< olah >
offerings [ were ] in abundance <07230 +rob > , with the fat
<02459 +cheleb > of the peace <08002 +shelem > offerings , and
the drink <05262 +necek > offerings for [ every ] burnt < 05930

house <01004 +bayith > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > was set

29 : 36 And Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > rejoiced <08055 +samach

<06597 +pith>owm > .



30 : 01 . And Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > sent <07971 +shalach

+Y@hovah > God <00430 +>elohiym > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > .



30 : 02 For the king <04428 +melek > had taken counsel < 03289

.



30 : 03 For they could <03201 +yakol > not keep <06213 +<asah >
it at that time <06256 +<eth > , because <03588 +kiy > the
priests <03548 +kohen > had not sanctified <06942 +qadash >
themselves sufficiently <04078 +madday > , neither < 03808 +lo> >
had the people <05971 +<am > gathered <00622 +> acaph >

30 : 04 And the thing <01697 +dabar > pleased the king < 04428

30 : 05 So they established <05975 +<amad > a decree < 01697

not done <06213 +<asah > [ it ] of a long <07230 +rob > [ time
in such sort ] as it was written <03789 +kathab > .



30 : 06 So the posts <07323 +ruwts > went <03212 +yalak > with
the letters <00107 +>iggereth > from the king <04428 +melek >
and his princes <08269 +sar > throughout all <03605 +kol >

according to the commandment <04687 +mitsvah > of the king

+p@leytah > out of the hand <03709 +kaph > of the kings <04428

30 : 07 And be not ye like your fathers <1> , and like your
brethren <00251 +>ach > , which <00834 +>aher > trespassed
<04603 +ma<al > against the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > God <00430

+nathan > them up to desolation <08047 +shammah > , as ye see
<07200 +ra>ah > .



30 : 08 Now <06258 +<attah > be ye not stiffnecked , as your

the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , and enter <00935 +bow> > into his
sanctuary <04720 +miqdash > , which <00834 +>aher > he hath
sanctified <06942 +qadash > for ever <05769 +<owlam > : and
serve <05647 +<abad > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > your God <00430

<00639 +>aph > may turn <07725 +shuwb > away from you .



30 : 09 For if ye turn <07725 +shuwb > again <07725 +shuwb >
unto the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , your brethren <00251 +>ach >
and your children <01121 +ben > [ shall find ] compassion <07356
+racham > before <06440 +paniym > them that lead them captive
<07617 +shabah > , so that they shall come <07725 +shuwb > again
<07725 +shuwb > into this <02063 +zo>th > land < 00776 +>erets > :
for the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > your God <00430 +> elohiym > [ is
] gracious <02587 +channuwn > and merciful <07349 +rachuwm > ,
and will not turn <05493 +cuwr > away [ his ] face < 06440
+paniym > from you , if <00518 +>im > ye return < 07725 +shuwb >
unto him .



30 : 10 So the posts <07323 +ruwts > passed <05674 +< abar > from
city <05892 +<iyr > to city <05892 +<iyr > through the country
<00776 +>erets > of Ephraim <00669 +>Ephrayim > and Manasseh

they laughed <07832 +sachaq > them to scorn , and mocked <03932

30 : 11 Nevertheless <00389 +>ak > divers <00582 +> enowsh > of
Asher <00836 +>Asher > and Manasseh <04519 +M@nashsheh > and of
Zebulun <02074 +Z@buwluwn > humbled <03665 +kana< > themselves ,
and came <00935 +bow> > to Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > .



30 : 12 Also <01571 +gam > in Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > the hand
<03027 +yad > of God <00430 +>elohiym > was to give <05414

<06213 +<asah > the commandment <04687 +mitsvah > of the king

<01697 +dabar > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > .



30 : 13 . And there assembled <00622 +>acaph > at Jerusalem
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > much <07227 +rab > people < 05971 +<am >
to keep <06213 +<asah > the feast <02282 +chag > of unleavened

30 : 14 And they arose <06965 +quwm > and took away < 05493 +cuwr

<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > , and all <03605 +kol > the altars for

<07993 +shalak > [ them ] into the brook <05158 +nachal > Kidron
<06939 +Qidrown > .



30 : 15 Then they killed <07819 +shachat > the passover < 06453

the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > were ashamed <03637 +kalam > , and
sanctified <06942 +qadash > themselves , and brought < 00935
+bow> > in the burnt <05930 +<olah > offerings into the house
<01004 +bayith > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > .



30 : 16 And they stood <05975 +<amad > in their place <05977

sprinkled <02236 +zaraq > the blood <01818 +dam > , [ which they
received ] of the hand <03027 +yad > of the Levites < 03881
+Leviyiy > .



30 : 17 For [ there were ] many <07227 +rab > in the
congregation <06951 +qahal > that were not sanctified < 06942
+qadash > : therefore the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > had the
charge <05921 +<al > of the killing <07821 +sh@chiytah > of the
passovers <06453 +pecach > for every <03605 +kol > one [ that
was ] not clean <02889 +tahowr > , to sanctify <06942 +qadash >
[ them ] unto the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > .



30 : 18 For a multitude <04768 +marbiyth > of the people <05971

eat <00398 +>akal > the passover <06453 +pecach > otherwise

Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > prayed <06419 +palal > for them ,

, though [ he be ] not [ cleansed ] according to the
purification <02893 +tohorah > of the sanctuary <06944 +qodesh >
.



30 : 20 And the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > hearkened <08085 +shama<

the people <05971 +<am > .



30 : 21 . And the children <01121 +ben > of Israel < 03478

singing ] with loud <05797 +<oz > instruments <03627 +k@liy >

30 : 22 And Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > spake <01696 +dabar >
comfortably unto all <03605 +kol > the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy >
that taught <07919 +sakal > the good <02896 +towb > knowledge

30 : 23 And the whole <03605 +kol > assembly <06951 +qahal >

30 : 24 For Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > king <04428 +melek > of
Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > did give <07311 +ruwm > to the

30 : 27 Then the priests <03548 +kohen > the Levites < 03881

32 : 01 . After <00310 +>achar > these <00428 +> el - leh >

32 : 03 He took counsel <03289 +ya<ats > with his princes <08269

32 : 04 So there was gathered <06908 +qabats > much < 07227 +rab

32 : 05 Also he strengthened <02388 +chazaq > himself , and
built <01129 +banah > up all <03605 +kol > the wall <02346

32 : 06 And he set <05414 +nathan > captains <08269 +sar > of

32 : 07 Be strong <02388 +chazaq > and courageous <00553 +>amats

32 : 08 With him [ is ] an arm <02220 +z@rowa< > of flesh <01320

32 : 10 Thus <03541 +koh > saith <00559 +>amar > Sennacherib

Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > ?



32 : 11 Doth not Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > persuade < 05496

32 : 12 Hath not the same <01931 +huw> > Hezekiah < 02396

32 : 13 Know <03045 +yada< > ye not what <04100 +mah > I and my

32 : 15 Now <06258 +<attah > therefore let not Hezekiah <02396

32 : 16 And his servants <05650 +<ebed > spake <01696 +dabar >

32 : 21 And the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > sent <07971 +shalach > an

32 : 22 Thus the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > saved <03467 +yasha< >

32 : 23 And many <07227 +rab > brought <00935 +bow> > gifts

32 : 24 . In those <01992 +hem > days <03117 +yowm > Hezekiah

32 : 25 But Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > rendered <07725 +shuwb

Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > .



32 : 26 Notwithstanding Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > humbled

32 : 27 And Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > had <01961 +hayah >

32 : 29 Moreover he provided <06213 +<asah > him cities <05892

substance <07399 +r@kuwsh > very <03966 +m@<od > much <07227

32 : 30 This <01931 +huw> > same <01931 +huw> > Hezekiah <02396
+Chizqiyah > also stopped <05640 +catham > the upper < 05945

+Chizqiyah > prospered <06743 +tsalach > in all < 03605 +kol >
his works <04639 +ma<aseh > .



32 : 31 Howbeit <03651 +ken > in [ the business of ] the
ambassadors <03887 +luwts > of the princes <08269 +sar > of
Babylon <00894 +Babel > , who sent <07971 +shalach > unto him to
enquire <01875 +darash > of the wonder <04159 +mowpheth > that

he might know <03045 +yada< > all <03605 +kol > [ that was ] in

32 : 32 Now the rest <03499 +yether > of the acts <01697 +dabar

+checed > , behold <02009 +hinneh > , they [ are ] written
<03789 +kathab > in the vision <02377 +chazown > of Isaiah
<03470 +Y@sha<yah > the prophet <05030 +nabiy> > , the son

<05612 +cepher > of the kings <04428 +melek > of Judah <03063
+Y@huwdah > and Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > .



32 : 33 And Hezekiah <02396 +Chizqiyah > slept <07901 +shakab >
with his fathers <1> , and they buried <06912 +qabar > him in
the chiefest <04608 +ma<aleh > of the sepulchres < 06913 +qeber >
of the sons <01121 +ben > of David <01732 +David > : and all
<03605 +kol > Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > and the inhabitants
<03427 +yashab > of Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > did him
<06213 +<asah > honour <03519 +kabowd > at his death <04195
+mowthar > . And Manasseh <04519 +M@nashsheh > his son <01121

33 : 01 . Manasseh <04519 +M@nashsheh > [ was ] twelve < 06240
+<asar > years <08141 +shaneh > old <08147 +sh@nayim > when he
began to reign <04427 +malak > , and he reigned <04427 +malak >
fifty <02572 +chamishshiym > and five <02568 +chamesh > years
<08141 +shaneh > in Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > :



33 : 02 But did <06213 +<asah > [ that which was ] evil <07457
+ra<eb > in the sight <05869 +<ayin > of the LORD <03068
+Y@hovah > , like unto the abominations <08441 +tow<ebah > of
the heathen <01471 +gowy > , whom the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > had
cast <03423 +yarash > out before <06440 +paniym > the children
<01121 +ben > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > .



33 : 03 For he built <01129 +banah > again <07725 +shuwb > the
high <01116 +bamah > places <01116 +bamah > which Hezekiah
<03169 +Y@chizqiyah > his father <1> had broken < 03422 +y@raqraq

altars <04196 +mizbeach > for Baalim <01168 +Ba<al > , and made
<06213 +<asah > groves <00842 +>asherah > , and worshipped
<07812 +shachah > all <03605 +kol > the host < 06635 +tsaba> > of
heaven <08064 +shamayim > , and served <05647 +<abad > them .



33 : 04 Also he built <01129 +banah > altars <01196 +Ba<anah >
in the house <01004 +bayith > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > ,
whereof <00834 +>aher > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > had said
<00559 +>amar > , In Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > shall
<01961 +hayah > my name <08034 +shem > be for < 05769 +<owlam >
ever <05769 +<owlam > .



33 : 05 And he built <01129 +banah > altars <04196 +mizbeach >
for all <03605 +kol > thehost <06635 +tsaba> > of heaven <08064
+shamayim > in the two <08147 +sh@nayim > courts < 02691 +chatser

33 : 06 And he caused <05674 +<abar > his children < 01121 +ben >
to pass <05674 +<abar > through <05674 +<abar > the fire <00784
+>esh > in the valley <01516 +gay> > of the son <01121 +ben > of
Hinnom <02011 +Hinnom > : also he observed <06049 +< anan > times
<06049 +<anan > , and used enchantments <03772 +karath > , and
used witchcraft <03784 +kashaph > , and dealt <06213 +<asah >
with a familiar <00178 +>owb > spirit <00178 +>owb > , and with
wizards <03049 +yidd@<oniy > : he wrought <06213 +< asah > much
<07235 +rabah > evil <07451 +ra< > in the sight <05869 +<ayin >
of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , to provoke <03707 +ka< ac > him
to anger <03707 +ka<ac > .



33 : 07 And he set <07760 +suwm > a carved <06459 +pecel > image
<06459 +pecel > , the idol <05566 +cemel > which he had made
<06213 +<asah > , in the house <01004 +bayith > of God <00430

had said <00559 +>amar > to David <01732 +David > and to Solomon
<08010 +Sh@lomoh > his son <01121 +ben > , In this <02088 +zeh >
house <01004 +bayith > , and in Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim >
, which I have chosen <00977 +bachar > before all <03605 +kol >
the tribes <07626 +shebet > of Israel <03478 +Yisra> el > , will
I put <07760 +suwm > my name <08034 +shem > for < 05865 +<eylowm
> ever <05865 +<eylowm > :



33 : 08 Neither <03808 +lo> > will I any more <03254 +yacaph >
remove <05493 +cuwr > the foot <07272 +regel > of Israel <03478
+Yisra>el > from out <05921 +<al > of the land < 00127 +>adamah >
which I have appointed <05978 +<immad > for your fathers <07535
+raq > ; so <00518 +>im > that they will take heed <08104
+shamar > to do <06213 +<asah > all <03605 +kol > that I have
commanded <00834 +>aher > them <04519 +M@nashsheh > , according
to the whole <03605 +kol > law <08451 +towrah > and the statutes
<02706 +choq > and the ordinances <04941 +mishpat > by the hand
<03027 +yad > of Moses <04872 +Mosheh > .



33 : 09 So Manasseh <04519 +M@nashsheh > made Judah < 03063
+Y@huwdah > and the inhabitants <03427 +yashab > of Jerusalem
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > to err <08582 +ta<ah > , [ and ] to do
<06213 +<asah > worse <07451 +ra< > than the heathen <01471
+gowy > , whom the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > had destroyed <08045
+shamad > before <06440 +paniym > the children <01121 +ben > of
Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > .



33 : 10 And <04519 +M@nashsheh > the LORD spake <08141 +shaneh >
to <01121 +ben > Manasseh , and to his people <04427 +malak > :
but they would <04427 +malak > not <02572 +chamishshiym > hearken

.



33 : 11 . Wherefore the <06213 +<asah > LORD brought upon them
<07451 +ra< > the captains of <05869 +<ayin > the host of <03068
+Y@hovah > the king of Assyria <08441 +tow<ebah > , which took
Manasseh <01471 +gowy > among <00834 +>aher > the thorns <03068
+Y@hovah > , and bound <03423 +yarash > him with < 06440 +paniym
> fetters , and <01121 +ben > carried him <03478 +Yisra>el > to
Babylon .



33 : 12 And when he <01129 +banah > was <07725 +shuwb > in
affliction <01116 +bamah > , he besought <00834 +> aher > the
<02396 +Chizqiyah > LORD his God , and <05422 +nathats > humbled
<05422 +nathats > himself greatly before <06965 +quwm > the God
<04196 +mizbeach > of his <01168 +Ba<al > fathers ,



33 : 13 And prayed unto <01129 +banah > him <04196 +mizbeach > :
and he was <01004 +bayith > intreated of him <03068 +Y@hovah > ,
and <00834 +>aher > heard his <03068 +Y@hovah > supplication ,
and <00559 +>amar > brought him <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > again to
Jerusalem <08034 +shem > into his kingdom <05769 +< owlam > .
Then Manasseh knew that the LORD he [ was ] God .



33 : 14 Now after this <01129 +banah > he <04196 +mizbeach >
built a <03605 +kol > wall without <06635 +tsaba> > the city
<08064 +shamayim > of David , on <08147 +sh@nayim > the <02691
+chatser > west side of <01004 +bayith > Gihon , in the <03068
+Y@hovah > valley , even to the entering in at the fish gate ,
and compassed about Ophel , and raised it up a very great height
, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah .



33 : 15 And he took away the <01121 +ben > strange gods < 05674
+<abar > , and the idol <00784 +>esh > out of the <01516 +gay> >
house of the <01121 +ben > LORD , and <02011 +Hinnom > all the
altars <06049 +<anan > that he had built <05172 +nachash > in
the mount <03784 +kashaph > of the <06213 +<asah > house of the
LORD <00178 +>owb > , and in Jerusalem <03049 +yidd@<oniy > ,
and cast <06213 +<asah > [ them <07235 +rabah > ] out <07451
+ra< > of the city <05869 +<ayin > .



33 : 16 And he repaired <07760 +suwm > the altar <06459 +pecel >
of the LORD <05566 +cemel > , and <00834 +>aher > sacrificed
thereon peace <06213 +<asah > offerings and thank < 01004 +bayith
> offerings , and <00430 +>elohiym > commanded Judah <00834
+>aher > to <00430 +>elohiym > serve the <00559 +>amar > LORD
God <01732 +David > of Israel .



33 : 17 Nevertheless <03808 +lo> > the people did sacrifice
still <05493 +cuwr > in the <07272 +regel > high places <03478
+Yisra>el > , [ yet ] unto the LORD their <00127 +> adamah > God
<00834 +>aher > only .



33 : 18 Now the <04519 +M@nashsheh > rest of <03063 +Y@huwdah >
the acts of <03427 +yashab > Manasseh , and <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim
> his prayer <08582 +ta<ah > unto his God <06213 +<asah > , and
<07451 +ra< > the <04480 +min > words of <01471 +gowy > the
<00834 +>aher > seers that <03068 +Y@hovah > spake to <08045
+shamad > him <06440 +paniym > in the <01121 +ben > name of
<03478 +Yisra>el > the LORD God of Israel , behold , they [ are
written ] in the book of the kings of Israel .



33 : 19 His prayer also <03068 +Y@hovah > , and <01696 +dabar >
[ how God <04519 +M@nashsheh > ] was intreated of him < 05971
+<am > , and all his sin , and <07181 +qashab > his trespass ,
and the places wherein he built high places , and set up groves
and graven images , before he was humbled : behold , they [ are
] written among the sayings of the seers .



33 : 20 So Manasseh slept <03068 +Y@hovah > with <00935 +bow> >
his fathers , and they <08269 +sar > buried him in < 06635
+tsaba> > his own house <04428 +melek > : and Amon <00804
+>Ashshuwr > his son <03920 +lakad > reigned < 04519 +M@nashsheh

33 : 21 . Amon [ was ] two and twenty years <06887 +tsarar >
old when <02470 +chalah > he began <03068 +Y@hovah > to reign
<00430 +>elohiym > , and reigned <03665 +kana< > two years
<03966 +m@<od > in Jerusalem .



33 : 22 But he <06419 +palal > did [ that which was ] evil in
<06279 +<athar > the sight of the <08085 +shama< > LORD , as
<08467 +t@chinnah > did Manasseh <07725 +shuwb > his father
<07725 +shuwb > : for Amon <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > sacrificed
unto all <04438 +malkuwth > the carved <04519 +M@nashsheh >
images <03045 +yada< > which Manasseh his <03068 +Y@hovah >
father had made <00430 +>elohiym > , and served them ;



33 : 23 And humbled <00310 +>achar > not <03651 +ken > himself
before <01129 +banah > the LORD <02346 +chowmah > , as <02435
+chiytsown > Manasseh his <05892 +<iyr > father had <01732
+David > humbled himself ; but <04628 +ma<arab > Amon trespassed
more <01521 +Giychown > and more .



33 : 24 And his servants conspired <05493 +cuwr > against him
<05236 +nekar > , and <00430 +>elohiym > slew him in <05566
+cemel > his own house .



33 : 25 But the people <01129 +banah > of the <04196 +mizbeach >
land slew all <03068 +Y@hovah > them that <02076 +zabach > had
<05921 +<al > conspired <08002 +shelem > against <02077 +zebach
> king Amon <08426 +towdah > ; and the people <00559 +>amar > of
<03063 +Y@huwdah > the land <05647 +<abad > made Josiah <03068
+Y@hovah > his <00430 +>elohiym > son king <03478 +Yisra>el > in
his stead .



34 : 01 . Josiah <61> [ was ] eight <05971 +<am > years old
<02076 +zabach > when <05750 +<owd > he began to <01116 +bamah >
reign , and he reigned in <03068 +Y@hovah > Jerusalem one <00430
+>elohiym > and <07535 +raq > thirty years .



34 : 02 And he did <03499 +yether > [ that which was < 01697
+dabar > ] right in <04519 +M@nashsheh > the sight of <08605
+t@phillah > the LORD , and <00430 +>elohiym > walked in the
<01697 +dabar > ways of David <02374 +chozeh > his father <01696
+dabar > , and declined [ neither ] to the <08034 +shem > right
hand , nor <03068 +Y@hovah > to <00430 +>elohiym > the left
<03478 +Yisra>el > .



34 : 03 For in <08605 +t@phillah > the eighth year of his reign
<06279 +<athar > , while he was yet <03605 +kol > young , he
began to seek <04604 +ma<al > after the God <04725 +maqowm > of
<00834 +>aher > David his <01129 +banah > father <01116 +bamah >
: and in the <05975 +<amad > twelfth year <00842 +> asherah > he
began <06456 +p@ciyl > to purge <06440 +paniym > Judah and
Jerusalem <03665 +kana< > from <02009 +hinneh > the high places
<03789 +kathab > , and <05921 +<al > the groves <01697 +dabar > ,
and the carved <02374 +chozeh > images , and the molten images

.



34 : 04 And they <04519 +M@nashsheh > brake <07901 +shakab >
down the altars <1> of Baalim in <06912 +qabar > his presence ;
and the images <01004 +bayith > , that [ were <00526 +>Amown > ]
on high <01121 +ben > above <04427 +malak > them , he cut <08478
+tachath > down ; and the groves , and the carved images , and
the molten images , he brake in pieces , and made dust [ of them
] , and strowed [ it ] upon the graves of them that had
sacrificed unto them .



34 : 05 And <00526 +>Amown > he burnt the bones < 06242 +<esriym
> of <08141 +shaneh > the <01121 +ben > priests upon their
altars , and <04427 +malak > cleansed Judah <04427 +malak > and
Jerusalem <08141 +shaneh > .



34 : 06 And [ so did <06213 +<asah > he ] in the cities <07451
+ra< > of Manasseh , and <05869 +<ayin > Ephraim , and Simeon
<03068 +Y@hovah > , even unto <06213 +<asah > Naphtali <04519
+M@nashsheh > , with their <1> mattocks round <00526 +>Amown >
about <02076 +zabach > .



34 : 07 And when <03665 +kana< > he had broken <06440 +paniym >
down the <03068 +Y@hovah > altars and <04519 +M@nashsheh > the
groves <1> , and had <03665 +kana< > beaten the graven <00526
+>Amown > images <00819 +>ashmah > into <07235 +rabah > powder ,
and cut down all the idols throughout all the land of Israel ,
he returned to Jerusalem .



34 : 08 . Now in the <05650 +<ebed > eighteenth < 07194 +qashar
> year <05921 +<al > of his reign <04191 +muwth > , when he had
purged the <01004 +bayith > land , and the house , he sent
Shaphan the son of Azaliah , and Maaseiah the governor of the
city , and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder , to repair the
house of the LORD his God .



34 : 09 And when they <05971 +<am > came to Hilkiah < 00776
+>erets > the <05221 +nakah > high <03605 +kol > priest , they
delivered the <07194 +qashar > money <05921 +<al > that <04428
+melek > was <00526 +>Amown > brought into the < 05971 +<am >
house of God <00776 +>erets > , which the <02977 +Yo>shiyah >
Levites that <01121 +ben > kept <04427 +malak > the doors had
<08478 +tachath > gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim ,
and of all the remnant of Israel , and of all Judah and Benjamin
; and they returned to Jerusalem .



34 : 10 And <02977 +Yo>shiyah > they put <08083 +sh@moneh > [ it
<08141 +shaneh > ] in <01121 +ben > the hand of the workmen
<04427 +malak > that had the <04427 +malak > oversight of <03389
+Y@ruwshalaim > the <00259 +>echad > house of < 07970
+sh@lowshiym > the <08141 +shaneh > LORD , and they gave it to
the workmen that wrought in the house of the LORD , to repair
and amend the house :



34 : 11 Even to the <06213 +<asah > artificers and builders gave
<03477 +yashar > they [ it ] , to <05869 +<ayin > buy hewn stone
<03068 +Y@hovah > , and timber <03212 +yalak > for couplings ,
and <01870 +derek > to floor <01732 +David > the houses <1>
which the <05493 +cuwr > kings <03808 +lo> > of Judah had <03225
+yamiyn > destroyed <03225 +yamiyn > .



34 : 12 And the men did <08083 +sh@moneh > the <08141 +shaneh >
work faithfully : and <04427 +malak > the overseers of them
<05750 +<owd > [ were <05288 +na<ar > ] Jahath and <02490
+chalal > Obadiah , the <01875 +darash > Levites , of the <00430

and Meshullam , of the <08141 +shaneh > sons of <02490 +chalal >
the Kohathites <02891 +taher > , to <03063 +Y@huwdah > set [ it
<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > ] forward ; and [ other <01116 +bamah >
of ] the Levites , all <00842 +>asherah > that could skill
<06456 +p@ciyl > of instruments of musick <04541 +maccekah > .
