LXX Brenton's Greek Septuagint
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Ὢν εἴκοσι καὶ πέντε ἐτῶν ἐβασίλευσεν Ἀμασίας, καὶ εἰκοσιεννέα ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ Ἰωαδαὲν ἀπὸ Ἱερουσαλήμ.
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 Καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον Κυρίου, ἀλλʼ οὐκ ἐν καρδίᾳ πλήρει.
2 He did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes, but not with a perfect heart.
3 Καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς κατέστη ἡ βασιλεία ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐθανάτωσε τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ τοὺς φονεύσαντας τὸυ βασιλέα πατέρα αὐτοῦ·
3 Now when the kingdom was established to him, he killed his servants who had killed his father the king.
4 Καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτῶν οὐκ ἀπέκτεινε, κατὰ τὴν διαθήκην τοῦ νόμου Κύριου, καθὼς γέγραπται, ὡς ἐνετείλατο Κύριος, λέγων, οὐκ ἀποθανοῦνται πατέρες ὑπὲρ τέκνων, καὶ υἱοὶ οὐκ ἀποθανοῦνται ὑπὲρ πατέρων, ἀλλʼ ἢ ἕκαστος τῇ ἑαυτοῦ ἁμαρτίᾳ ἀποθανοῦνται.
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 Καὶ συνήγαγεν Ἀμασίας τὸν οἶκον Ἰούδα, καὶ ἀνέστησεν αὐτοὺς κατʼ οἴκους πατριῶν αὐτῶν εἰς χιλιάρχους καὶ ἑκατοντάρχους ἐν παντὶ Ἰούδᾳ καὶ Ἱερουσαλήμ· καὶ ἠρίθμησεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ εἰκοσαετοῦς καὶ ἐπάνω, καὶ εὗρεν αὐτοὺς τριακοσίας χιλιάδας ἐξελθεῖν εἰς πόλεμον δυνατοὺς, κρατοῦντας δόρυ καὶ θυρεόν.
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 Καὶ ἐμισθώσατο ἀπὸ Ἰσραὴλ ἑκατὸν χιλιάδας δυνατοὺς ἰσχύϊ ἑκατὸν ταλάντων ἀργυρίου.
6 He also hired one hundred thousand mighty men of valor out of Israel for one hundred talents of silver.
7 Καὶ ἄνθρωπος τοῦ Θεοῦ ἦλθε πρὸς αὐτὸν, λέγων, βασιλεῦ, οὐ πορεύσεται μετὰ σοῦ δύναμις Ἰσραὴλ, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστι Κύριος μετὰ Ἰσραὴλ πάντων τῶν υἱῶν Ἐφραίμ.
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 Ὅτι ἐὰν ὑπολάβῃς κατισχῦσαι ἐν τούτοις, καὶ τροπώσεταί σε Κύριος ἐναντίον τῶν ἐχθρῶν, ὅτι ἐστὶ παρὰ Κυρίου καὶ ἰσχῦσαι καὶ τροπώσασθαι.
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 Καὶ εἶπεν Ἀμασίας τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ τί ποιήσω τὰ ἑκατὸν τάλαντα ἃ ἔδωκα τῇ δυνάμει Ἰσραήλ; καὶ εἶπεν ὁ ἄνθρωπος τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἔστι τῷ Κυρίῳ δοῦναί σοι πλεῖστα τούτων.
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 Καὶ διεχώρισεν Ἀμασίας τῇ δυνάμει τῇ ἐλθούσῃ πρὸς αὐτὸν ἀπὸ Ἐφραὶμ, ἀπέλθεῖν εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐθυμώθησαν σφόδρα ἐπὶ Ἰούδαν, καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτῶν ἐν ὀργῇ θυμοῦ.
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 Καὶ Ἀμασίας κατίσχυσε καὶ παρέλαβε τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς τὴν κοιλάδα τῶν ἁλῶν, καὶ ἐπάταξεν ἐκεῖ τοὺς υἱοὺς Σηεὶρ, δέκα χιλιάδας.
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 Καὶ δέκα χιλιάδας ἐζώγρησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰούδα, καὶ ἔφερον αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ τὸ ἄκρον τοῦ κρημνοῦ, καὶ κατεκρήμνιζον αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τοῦ ἄκρου τοῦ κρημνοῦ, καὶ πάντες διεῤῥήγνυντο.
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 Καὶ υἱοὶ τῆς δυνάμεως οὓς ἀπέστρεψεν Ἀμασίας τοῦ μὴ πορευθῆναι μετʼ αὐτοῦ εἰς πόλεμον, καὶ ἐπέθεντο ἐπὶ τὰς πόλεις Ἰούδα ἀπὸ Σαμαρείας ἕως Βαιθωρών· καὶ ἐπάταξαν ἐν αὐτοῖς τρεῖς χιλιάδας, καὶ ἐσκύλευσαν σκῦλα πολλά.
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 Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὸ ἐλθεῖν Ἀμασίαν πατάξαντος τὴν Ἰδουμαίαν, καὶ ἤνεγκε πρὸς αὐτὸν τοὺς θεοὺς υἱῶν Σηεὶρ, καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτοὺς αὐτῷ εἰς θεοὺς, καὶ ἐναντίον αὐτῶν προσεκύνει, καὶ αὐτὸς αὐτοῖς ἔθυε.
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 Καὶ ἐγένετο ὀργὴ Κυρίου ἐπὶ Ἀμασίαν, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτῷ προφήτην, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, τί ἐζήτησας τοὺς θεοὺς τοῦ λαοῦ, οἳ οὐκ ἐξείλοντο τὸν λαὸν ἑαυτῶν ἐκ χειρός σου;
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 Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ λαλῆσαι αὐτῷ πρὸς αὐτὸν, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, μὴ σύμβουλον τοῦ βασιλέως δέδωκά σε; πρόσεχε ἵνα μὴ μαστιγωθῇς· καὶ ἐσιώπησεν ὁ προφήτης, καὶ εἶπεν, ὅτι γινώσκω, ὅτι ἐβούλετο ἐπὶ σοὶ τοῦ καταφθεῖραί σε, ὅτι ἐποίησας τοῦτο, καὶ οὐκ ἐπήκουσας τῆς συμβουλίας μου.
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 Καὶ ἐβουλεύσατο Ἀμασίας ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἰούδα, καὶ ἀπέστειλε πρὸς Ἰωὰς υἱὸν Ἰωάχαζ υἱοῦ Ἰηοὺ βασιλέα Ἰσραὴλ, λέγων, δεῦρο, καὶ ὀφθῶμεν προσώποις.
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 Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰωὰς βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς Ἀμασίαν βασιλέα Ἰούδα, λέγων, ὁ ἀκχοὺχ ὁ ἐν τῷ Λιβάνῳ ἀπέστειλε πρὸς τὴν κέδρον τὴν ἐν τῷ Λιβάνῳ, λέγων, δὸς τὴν θυγατέρα σου τῷ υἱῷ μου εἰς γυναῖκα, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐλεύσεται τὰ θηρία τοῦ ἀγροῦ τὰ ἐν τῷ Λιβάνῳ· καὶ ἦλθον τὰ θηρία, καὶ κατεπάτησαν τὸν ἀκχούχ.
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 Εἶπας, ἰδοὺ ἐπάταξα τὴν Ἰδουμαίαν, καὶ ἐπαίρει σε ἡ καρδία σου ἡ βαρεῖα· νῦν κάθισον ἐν οἴκῳ σου, καὶ ἱνατί συμβάλλεις ἐν κακίᾳ, καὶ πεσῇ σὺ καὶ Ἰούδας μετὰ σοῦ;
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 Καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσεν Ἀμασίας, ὅτι παρὰ Κυρίου ἐγένετο τοῦ παραδοῦναι αὐτὸν εἰς χεῖρας, ὅτι ἐξεζήτησε τοὺς θεοὺς τῶν Ἰδουμαίων.
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 Καὶ ἀνέβη Ἰωὰς βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ὤφθησαν ἀλλήλοις αὐτὸς καὶ Ἀμασίας βασιλεὺς Ἰούδα ἐν Βαιθσαμὺς, ἥ ἐστι τοῦ Ἰούδα.
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 Καὶ ἐτροπώθη Ἰούδας κατὰ πρόσωπον Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἔφυγεν ἕκαστος εἰς τὸ σκήνωμα αὐτοῦ.
22 Judah was defeated by Israel; so every man fled to his tent.
23 Καὶ τὸν Ἀμασίαν βασιλέα Ἰούδα τὸν τοῦ Ἰωὰς υἱοῦ Ἰωάχαζ κατέλαβεν Ἰωὰς βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἐν Βαιθσαμὺς, καὶ εἰσήγαγεν αὐτὸν εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ· καὶ κατέσπασεν ἀπὸ τοῦ τείχους Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἀπὸ πύλης Ἐφραὶμ ἕως πύλης γωνίας τετρακοσίους πήχεις.
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 Καὶ πᾶν τὸ χρυσίον καὶ τὸ ἀργύριον, καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη τὰ εὑρεθέντα ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου καὶ παρὰ τῷ Ἀβδεδὸμ, καὶ τοὺς θησαυροὺς οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν συμμίξεων, καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν εἰς Σαμάρειαν.
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 Καὶ ἔζησεν Ἀμασίας ὁ τοῦ Ἰωὰς βασιλεὺς Ἰούδα μετὰ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν Ἰωὰς τὸν τοῦ Ἰωάχαζ βασιλέα Ἰσραὴλ ἔτη δεκαπέντε.
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 Καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ λόγοι Ἀμασίου οἱ πρῶτοι καὶ οἱ ἔσχατοι οὐκ ἰδοὺ γεγραμμένοι ἐπὶ βιβλίου βασιλέων Ἰούδα καὶ Ἰσραήλ;
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 Καὶ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ᾧ ἀπέστη Ἀμασίας ἀπὸ Κυρίου, καὶ ἐπέθεντο αὐτῷ ἐπίθεσιν, καὶ ἔφυγεν ἀπὸ Ἱερουσαλὴμ εἰς Λαχίς· καὶ ἀπέστειλαν κατόπισθεν αὐτοῦ εἰς Λαχίς, καὶ ἐθανάτωσαν αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ.
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 Καὶ ἀνέλαβον αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τῶν ἵππων, καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυίδ.
28 They brought him on horses and buried him with his fathers in the City of Judah.
