Dual Panel1In the second <08147> year <08141> of Joash <03101> son <01121> of Jehoahaz <03099> king <04428> of Israel <03478> reigned <04427> (8804) Amaziah <0558> the son <01121> of Joash <03101> king <04428> of Judah <03063>_.
2He was twenty <06242> and five <02568> years <08141> old <01121> when he began to reign <04427> (8800)_, and reigned <04427> (8804) twenty <06242> and nine <08672> years <08141> in Jerusalem <03389>_. And his mother's <0517> name <08034> [was] Jehoaddan <03086> of Jerusalem <03389>_.
3And he did <06213> (8799) [that which was] right <03477> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>_, yet <07535> not like David <01732> his father <01>_: he did <06213> (8804) according to all things as Joash <03101> his father <01> did <06213> (8804)_.
4Howbeit the high places <01116> were not taken away <05493> (8804)_: as yet <05750> the people <05971> did sacrifice <02076> (8764) and burnt incense <06999> (8764) on the high places <01116>_.
5And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom <04467> was confirmed <02388> (8804) in his hand <03027>_, that he slew <05221> (8686) his servants <05650> which had slain <05221> (8688) the king <04428> his father <01>_.
6But the children <01121> of the murderers <05221> (8688) he slew <04191> (8689) not: according unto that which is written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the law <08451> of Moses <04872>_, wherein the LORD <03068> commanded <06680> (8765)_, saying <0559> (8800)_, The fathers <01> shall not be put to death <04191> (8714) for the children <01121>_, nor the children <01121> be put to death <04191> (8714) for the fathers <01>_; but every man <0376> shall be put to death <04191> (8799) for his own sin <02399>_.
7He slew <05221> (8689) of Edom <0123> in the valley <01516> of salt <04417> ten <06235> thousand <0505>_, and took <08610> (8804) Selah <05554> by war <04421>_, and called <07121> (8799) the name <08034> of it Joktheel <03371> unto this day <03117>_. {Selah: or, the rock}
8Then Amaziah <0558> sent <07971> (8804) messengers <04397> to Jehoash <03060>_, the son <01121> of Jehoahaz <03059> son <01121> of Jehu <03058>_, king <04428> of Israel <03478>_, saying <0559> (8800)_, Come <03212> (8798)_, let us look <07200> (8691) one another in the face <06440>_.
9And Jehoash <03060> the king <04428> of Israel <03478> sent <07971> (8799) to Amaziah <0558> king <04428> of Judah <03063>_, saying <0559> (8800)_, The thistle <02336> that [was] in Lebanon <03844> sent <07971> (8804) to the cedar <0730> that [was] in Lebanon <03844>_, saying <0559> (8800)_, Give <05414> (8798) thy daughter <01323> to my son <01121> to wife <0802>_: and there passed <05674> (8799) by a wild <07704> beast <02416> that [was] in Lebanon <03844>_, and trode down <07429> (8799) the thistle <02336>_.
10Thou hast indeed <05221> (8687) smitten <05221> (8689) Edom <0123>_, and thine heart <03820> hath lifted thee up <05375> (8804)_: glory <03513> (8734) [of this], and tarry <03427> (8798) at home <01004>_: for why shouldest thou meddle <01624> (8691) to [thy] hurt <07451>_, that thou shouldest fall <05307> (8804)_, [even] thou, and Judah <03063> with thee? {at home: Heb. at thy house}
11But Amaziah <0558> would not hear <08085> (8804)_. Therefore Jehoash <03060> king <04428> of Israel <03478> went up <05927> (8799)_; and he and Amaziah <0558> king <04428> of Judah <03063> looked <07200> (8691) one another in the face <06440> at Bethshemesh <01053>_, which [belongeth] to Judah <03063>_.
12And Judah <03063> was put to the worse <05062> (8735) before <06440> Israel <03478>_; and they fled <05127> (8799) every man <0376> to their tents <0168>_. {put...: Heb. smitten}
13And Jehoash <03060> king <04428> of Israel <03478> took <08610> (8804) Amaziah <0558> king <04428> of Judah <03063>_, the son <01121> of Jehoash <03060> the son <01121> of Ahaziah <0274>_, at Bethshemesh <01053>_, and came <0935> (8799) to Jerusalem <03389>_, and brake down <06555> (8799) the wall <02346> of Jerusalem <03389> from the gate <08179> of Ephraim <0669> unto the corner <06438> gate <08179>_, four <0702> hundred <03967> cubits <0520>_.
14And he took <03947> (8804) all the gold <02091> and silver <03701>_, and all the vessels <03627> that were found <04672> (8737) in the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>_, and in the treasures <0214> of the king's <04428> house <01004>_, and hostages <01121> <08594>_, and returned <07725> (8799) to Samaria <08111>_.
15Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Jehoash <03060> which he did <06213> (8804)_, and his might <01369>_, and how he fought <03898> (8738) with Amaziah <0558> king <04428> of Judah <03063>_, [are] they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>_?
16And Jehoash <03060> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>_, and was buried <06912> (8735) in Samaria <08111> with the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>_; and Jeroboam <03379> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
17And Amaziah <0558> the son <01121> of Joash <03101> king <04428> of Judah <03063> lived <02421> (8799) after <0310> the death <04194> of Jehoash <03060> son <01121> of Jehoahaz <03059> king <04428> of Israel <03478> fifteen <02568> <06240> years <08141>_.
18And the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Amaziah <0558>_, [are] they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063>_?
19Now they made <07194> (8799) a conspiracy <07195> against him in Jerusalem <03389>_: and he fled <05127> (8799) to Lachish <03923>_; but they sent <07971> (8799) after <0310> him to Lachish <03923>_, and slew <04191> (8686) him there.
20And they brought <05375> (8799) him on horses <05483>_: and he was buried <06912> (8735) at Jerusalem <03389> with his fathers <01> in the city <05892> of David <01732>_.
21And all the people <05971> of Judah <03063> took <03947> (8799) Azariah <05838>_, which [was] sixteen <08337> <06240> years <08141> old <01121>_, and made him king <04427> (8686) instead of his father <01> Amaziah <0558>_. {Azariah: also called, Uzziah}
22He built <01129> (8804) Elath <0359>_, and restored <07725> (8686) it to Judah <03063>_, after <0310> that the king <04428> slept <07901> (8800) with his fathers <01>_.
23In the fifteenth <02568> <06240> <08141> year <08141> of Amaziah <0558> the son <01121> of Joash <03101> king <04428> of Judah <03063> Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Joash <03101> king <04428> of Israel <03478> began to reign <04427> (8804) in Samaria <08111>_, [and reigned] forty <0705> and one <0259> years <08141>_.
24And he did <06213> (8799) [that which was] evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>_: he departed <05493> (8804) not from all the sins <02403> of Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat <05028>_, who made Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8689)_.
25He restored <07725> (8689) the coast <01366> of Israel <03478> from the entering <0935> (8800) of Hamath <02574> unto the sea <03220> of the plain <06160>_, according to the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>_, which he spake <01696> (8765) by the hand <03027> of his servant <05650> Jonah <03124>_, the son <01121> of Amittai <0573>_, the prophet <05030>_, which [was] of Gathhepher <01662>_.
26For the LORD <03068> saw <07200> (8804) the affliction <06040> of Israel <03478>_, [that it was] very <03966> bitter <04784> (8802)_: for [there was] not <0657> any shut up <06113> (8803)_, nor any left <05800> (8803)_, nor any helper <05826> (8802) for Israel <03478>_.
27And the LORD <03068> said <01696> (8765) not that he would blot out <04229> (8800) the name <08034> of Israel <03478> from under heaven <08064>_: but he saved <03467> (8686) them by the hand <03027> of Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Joash <03101>_.
28Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Jeroboam <03379>_, and all that he did <06213> (8804)_, and his might <01369>_, how he warred <03898> (8738)_, and how he recovered <07725> (8689) Damascus <01834>_, and Hamath <02574>_, [which belonged] to Judah <03063>_, for Israel <03478>_, are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>_?
29And Jeroboam <03379> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>_, [even] with the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>_; and Zachariah <02148> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
