1 Acaz tenía veinte años cuando comenzó a reinar y reinó dieciséis años en Jerusalén. No hizo lo recto ante el Señor, como su antepasado David.
1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. He didn’t do that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes, like David his father,
2 Siguió el ejemplo de los reyes de Israel e hizo imágenes de metal para los baales.
2 but he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and also made molten images for the Baals.
3 Quemó ofrendas en el valle de Ben-hinom e hizo pasar a sus hijos por el fuego. Imitó las prácticas repugnantes de las naciones que el Señor había expulsado delante de los israelitas.
3 Moreover he burned incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burned his children in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations whom Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel.
4 Ofrecía sacrificios y quemaba incienso en los santuarios en los lugares altos, en las colinas y debajo de todo árbol frondoso.
4 He sacrificed and burned incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
5 El Señor su Dios lo entregó en manos del rey de Aram. Los arameos lo derrotaron y llevaron a muchos de su pueblo cautivos a Damasco. También fue entregado en manos del rey de Israel, que le causó una gran derrota.
5 Therefore Yahweh his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria. They struck him, and carried away from him a great multitude of captives, and brought them to Damascus. He was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who struck him with a great slaughter.
6 Peka, hijo de Remalías, mató en un solo día a ciento veinte mil hombres de Judá, todos buenos soldados, porque habían abandonado al Señor, Dios de sus antepasados.
6 For Pekah the son of Remaliah killed in Judah one hundred twenty thousand in one day, all of them valiant men, because they had forsaken Yahweh, the God of their fathers.
7 Zicri, un guerrero valiente de Efraín, mató a Maasías, hijo del rey; a Azricam, encargado del palacio; y a Elcana, segundo en autoridad después del rey.
7 Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah the king’s son, Azrikam the ruler of the house, and Elkanah who was next to the king.
8 Los israelitas tomaron de sus hermanos de Judá a doscientos mil cautivos, mujeres, hijos e hijas, y mucho botín. Los llevaron a Samaria.
8 The children of Israel carried away captive of their brothers two hundred thousand women, sons, and daughters, and also took away much plunder from them, and brought the plunder to Samaria.
9 Allí había un profeta del Señor llamado Oded. Salió al encuentro del ejército que regresaba a Samaria y les dijo: «El Señor, Dios de sus antepasados, estaba enojado con Judá y lo entregó en sus manos. Pero ustedes los mataron con una furia que llega hasta el cielo.
9 But a prophet of Yahweh was there, whose name was Oded; and he went out to meet the army that came to Samaria, and said to them, “Behold, because Yahweh, the God of your fathers, was angry with Judah, he has delivered them into your hand, and you have slain them in a rage which has reached up to heaven.
10 Ahora quieren hacer esclavos y esclavas a los habitantes de Judá y Jerusalén. ¿Acaso ustedes no tienen también pecados contra el Señor su Dios?
10 Now you intend to degrade the children of Judah and Jerusalem as male and female slaves for yourselves. Aren’t there even with you trespasses of your own against Yahweh your God?
11 Escúchenme: Devuelvan a los cautivos que han tomado de entre sus hermanos, porque la ira del Señor arde contra ustedes».
11 Now hear me therefore, and send back the captives that you have taken captive from your brothers, for the fierce wrath of Yahweh is on you.”
12 Algunos jefes de Efraín se opusieron a los que volvían de la guerra: Azarías, hijo de Johanán; Berequías, hijo de Mesilemot; Jehizquías, hijo de Salum; y Amasa, hijo de Adlai.
12 Then some of the heads of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against those who came from the war,
13 Les dijeron: «No traigan aquí a esos cautivos. Lo que planean hacer nos hará pecar contra el Señor y aumentará nuestro pecado y nuestra culpa. Ya hemos pecado mucho, y su ira arde contra Israel».
13 and said to them, “You must not bring in the captives here, for you intend that which will bring on us a trespass against Yahweh, to add to our sins and to our guilt; for our guilt is great, and there is fierce wrath against Israel.”
14 Los soldados entregaron los cautivos y el botín a los jefes y a la asamblea.
14 So the armed men left the captives and the plunder before the princes and all the assembly.
15 Los hombres que se han mencionado se hicieron cargo de los cautivos. Con ropa del botín vistieron a los que estaban desnudos y les dieron calzado. Les dieron comida y bebida, y les untaron aceite en el cuerpo. Subieron a los débiles en burros y los llevaron a Jericó, la ciudad de las palmeras, para devolverlos a los suyos. Después regresaron a Samaria.
15 The men who have been mentioned by name rose up and took the captives, and with the plunder clothed all who were naked among them, dressed them, gave them sandals, gave them something to eat and to drink, anointed them, carried all the feeble of them on donkeys, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brothers. Then they returned to Samaria.
16 En ese tiempo el rey Acaz pidió ayuda al rey de Asiria.
16 At that time King Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria to help him.
17 Los edomitas habían vuelto a atacar Judá y se habían llevado cautivos.
17 For again the Edomites had come and struck Judah, and carried away captives.
18 Los filisteos habían invadido las ciudades de las tierras bajas y del sur de Judá. Conquistaron Bet-semes, Ajalón y Gederot, además de Soco, Timna y Gimzo con sus pueblos vecinos, y se establecieron allí.
18 The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the lowland and of the South of Judah, and had taken Beth Shemesh, Aijalon, Gederoth, Soco with its villages, Timnah with its villages, and also Gimzo and its villages; and they lived there.
19 El Señor humilló a Judá por causa de Acaz, rey de Israel, que había promovido el desenfreno en Judá y había pecado gravemente contra el Señor.
19 For Yahweh brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel, because he acted without restraint in Judah and trespassed severely against Yahweh.
20 Tiglat-pileser, rey de Asiria, llegó a él, pero le causó dificultades en lugar de fortalecerlo.
20 Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria came to him and gave him trouble, but didn’t strengthen him.
21 Acaz tomó parte de las riquezas del templo del Señor, del palacio real y de los nobles, y las entregó al rey de Asiria. Pero eso no lo ayudó.
21 For Ahaz took away a portion out of Yahweh’s house, and out of the house of the king and of the princes, and gave it to the king of Assyria; but it didn’t help him.
22 En medio de sus dificultades, el mismo rey Acaz fue aún más infiel al Señor.
22 In the time of his distress, he trespassed yet more against Yahweh, this same King Ahaz.
23 Ofreció sacrificios a los dioses de Damasco, que lo habían atacado. Decía: «Los dioses de los reyes de Aram los ayudan. Les ofreceré sacrificios para que también me ayuden». Pero causaron su ruina y la de todo Israel.
23 For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus which had defeated him. He said, “Because the gods of the kings of Syria helped them, I will sacrifice to them, that they may help me.” But they were the ruin of him and of all Israel.
24 Acaz reunió los utensilios del templo de Dios, los hizo pedazos y cerró las puertas del templo del Señor. Hizo altares por toda Jerusalén.
24 Ahaz gathered together the vessels of God’s house, cut the vessels of God’s house in pieces, and shut up the doors of Yahweh’s house; and he made himself altars in every corner of Jerusalem.
25 En cada ciudad de Judá construyó santuarios en los lugares altos para quemar incienso a otros dioses. Así provocó la ira del Señor, Dios de sus antepasados.
25 In every city of Judah he made high places to burn incense to other gods, and provoked Yahweh, the God of his fathers, to anger.
26 Los demás hechos de Acaz y toda su conducta, desde el principio hasta el fin, están escritos en el libro de los reyes de Judá e Israel.
26 Now the rest of his acts, and all his ways, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
27 Acaz murió y lo sepultaron en Jerusalén, pero no en las tumbas de los reyes de Israel. Su hijo Ezequías reinó en su lugar.
27 Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, even in Jerusalem, because they didn’t bring him into the tombs of the kings of Israel; and Hezekiah his son reigned in his place.
