1 Amasías tenía veinticinco años cuando comenzó a reinar y reinó veintinueve años en Jerusalén. Su madre se llamaba Joadán y era de Jerusalén.
1 Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.
2 Hizo lo recto ante el Señor, pero no le fue fiel de todo corazón.
2 He did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes, but not with a perfect heart.
3 Cuando consolidó su reino, mató a los servidores que habían asesinado a su padre, el rey.
3 Now when the kingdom was established to him, he killed his servants who had killed his father the king.
4 Pero no mató a sus hijos, porque obedeció lo que el Señor había ordenado en el libro de la ley de Moisés: «No se debe dar muerte a los padres por los hijos, ni a los hijos por los padres. Cada uno morirá por su propio pecado».
4 But he didn’t put their children to death, but did according to that which is written in the law in the book of Moses, as Yahweh commanded, saying, “The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin.”
5 Amasías reunió a todo Judá y Benjamín y los organizó por familias, bajo jefes de mil y de cien soldados. Contó a los hombres de veinte años en adelante: eran trescientos mil soldados escogidos, preparados para la guerra y para usar la lanza y el escudo.
5 Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together and ordered them according to their fathers’ houses, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, even all Judah and Benjamin. He counted them from twenty years old and upward, and found that there were three hundred thousand chosen men, able to go out to war, who could handle spear and shield.
6 También contrató a cien mil soldados de Israel por cien talentos de plata.
6 He also hired one hundred thousand mighty men of valor out of Israel for one hundred talents of silver.
7 Pero un hombre de Dios fue a decirle: «Rey, no dejes que el ejército de Israel te acompañe. El Señor no está con Israel, con los de Efraín.
7 A man of God came to him, saying, “O king, don’t let the army of Israel go with you, for Yahweh is not with Israel, with all the children of Ephraim.
8 Ve tú y sé fuerte en la batalla. Dios no permitirá que caigas ante tus enemigos, pues tiene poder para ayudarte o para hacerte caer ante ellos».
8 But if you will go, take action, and be strong for the battle. God will overthrow you before the enemy; for God has power to help, and to overthrow.”
9 Amasías le preguntó al hombre de Dios: «¿Y qué pasará con los cien talentos que pagué por las tropas de Israel?». Él respondió: «Dios puede darte mucho más que eso».
9 Amaziah said to the man of God, “But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel?” The man of God answered, “Yahweh is able to give you much more than this.”
10 Amasías separó a las tropas que habían venido de Efraín y las mandó regresar. Ellos se enfurecieron contra Judá y volvieron muy enojados a su tierra.
10 Then Amaziah separated them, the army that had come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again. Therefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in fierce anger.
11 Amasías cobró ánimo, se puso al frente de su ejército y fue al Valle de la Sal. Allí mató a diez mil hombres de Seir.
11 Amaziah took courage, and led his people out and went to the Valley of Salt, and struck ten thousand of the children of Seir.
12 Los israelitas capturaron vivos a otros diez mil, los llevaron a lo alto de una roca y los arrojaron desde allí. Sus cuerpos quedaron destrozados por la caída.
12 The children of Judah carried away ten thousand alive, and brought them to the top of the rock, and threw them down from the top of the rock, so that they all were broken in pieces.
13 Las tropas que Amasías había mandado regresar, sin llevarlas a la batalla, atacaron las ciudades de Judá, desde Samaria hasta Bet-horón. Mataron a tres mil habitantes y se llevaron un gran botín.
13 But the men of the army whom Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell on the cities of Judah from Samaria even to Beth Horon, and struck of them three thousand, and took much plunder.
14 Al volver de derrotar a los edomitas, Amasías llevó consigo los dioses de los habitantes de Seir y los adoptó como sus dioses. Los adoró y quemó ofrendas ante ellos.
14 Now after Amaziah had come from the slaughter of the Edomites, he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them and burned incense to them.
15 El Señor se enojó con Amasías y le envió un profeta que le dijo: «¿Por qué sigues a los dioses de un pueblo al que no pudieron librar de tus manos?».
15 Therefore Yahweh’s anger burned against Amaziah, and he sent to him a prophet who said to him, “Why have you sought after the gods of the people, which have not delivered their own people out of your hand?”
16 Mientras el profeta hablaba, el rey le dijo: «¿Acaso te hemos nombrado consejero del rey? ¡Cállate, o morirás!». El profeta dejó de insistir, pero dijo: «Sé que Dios ha decidido destruirte, porque has hecho esto y no has escuchado mis palabras».
16 As he talked with him, the king said to him, “Have we made you one of the king’s counselors? Stop! Why should you be struck down?” Then the prophet stopped, and said, “I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this and have not listened to my counsel.”
17 Amasías, rey de Judá, siguiendo el consejo de sus servidores, envió este mensaje a Joás, hijo de Joacaz y nieto de Jehú, rey de Israel: «Ven, enfrentémonos cara a cara».
17 Then Amaziah king of Judah consulted his advisers, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, “Come! Let’s look one another in the face.”
18 Joás, rey de Israel, le respondió a Amasías, rey de Judá: «Un cardo del Líbano le mandó decir a un cedro del Líbano: “Dale tu hija a mi hijo como esposa”. Pero un animal salvaje del Líbano pasó y aplastó el cardo.
18 Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son as his wife. Then a wild animal that was in Lebanon passed by and trampled down the thistle.
19 Dices: “He derrotado a Edom”, y te has llenado de orgullo. Quédate en tu país. ¿Por qué buscas problemas que pueden hacerte caer a ti y a Judá contigo?».
19 You say to yourself that you have struck Edom; and your heart lifts you up to boast. Now stay at home. Why should you meddle with trouble, that you should fall, even you and Judah with you?’”
20 Amasías no escuchó. Esto sucedió por voluntad de Dios, para entregarlos en manos de Joás, porque habían seguido a los dioses de Edom.
20 But Amaziah would not listen; for it was of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they had sought after the gods of Edom.
21 Joás, rey de Israel, salió a la guerra, y se enfrentó con Amasías, rey de Judá, en Bet-semes de Judá.
21 So Joash king of Israel went up, and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.
22 Judá fue derrotado por Israel, y cada uno huyó a su tienda.
22 Judah was defeated by Israel; so every man fled to his tent.
23 Joás, rey de Israel, capturó en Bet-semes a Amasías, rey de Judá, hijo de Joás y nieto de Joacaz. Lo llevó a Jerusalén y derribó cuatrocientos codos de su muralla, desde la puerta de Efraín hasta la puerta de la Esquina.
23 Joash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth Shemesh and brought him to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.
24 Se llevó todo el oro, la plata y los utensilios del templo del Señor que estaban al cuidado de Obed-edom, y todos los tesoros del palacio real. También tomó rehenes y regresó a Samaria.
24 He took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in God’s house with Obed-Edom, and the treasures of the king’s house, and the hostages, and returned to Samaria.
25 Amasías, hijo de Joás y rey de Judá, vivió quince años después de la muerte de Joás, hijo de Joacaz y rey de Israel.
25 Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, lived for fifteen years after the death of Joash, son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.
26 Los demás hechos de Amasías, desde el principio hasta el fin, están escritos en el libro de los reyes de Judá e Israel.
26 Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, aren’t they written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
27 Desde que Amasías abandonó al Señor, conspiraron contra él en Jerusalén. Huyó a Laquis, pero enviaron hombres tras él y lo mataron allí.
27 Now from the time that Amaziah turned away from following Yahweh, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem. He fled to Lachish, but they sent after him to Lachish and killed him there.
28 Llevaron su cuerpo a caballo y lo sepultaron con sus antepasados en la Ciudad de David.
28 They brought him on horses and buried him with his fathers in the City of Judah.
