WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Azarías hijo de Amasías comenzó a gobernar en Judá cuando Jeroboán II llevaba veintisiete años reinando en Israel.
1 In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah began to reign.
2 Cuando Azarías subió al trono de Judá tenía dieciséis años, y reinó en Jerusalén durante cincuenta y dos años. Su madre era Jecolías, de Jerusalén.
2 He was sixteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.
3 Azarías fue un buen rey, y agradó al Señor, tal como lo había hecho su padre Amasías.
3 He did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
4 Pero a semejanza de sus antecesores, no destruyó los santuarios situados sobre las colinas, donde el pueblo hacía sacrificios y quemaba incienso.
4 However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense in the high places.
5 El Señor lo atacó con lepra, la que le duró hasta el día de su muerte. Por esta razón vivió solo en una casa. Su hijo Jotán ejercía el gobierno.
5 Yahweh struck the king, so that he was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house. Jotham, the king’s son, was over the household, judging the people of the land.
6 El resto de la historia de Azarías está escrito en el libro de los reyes de Judá.
6 Now the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
7 Cuando Azarías murió, fue sepultado con sus antepasados en la Ciudad de David, en Jerusalén, y su hijo Jotán fue el nuevo rey.
7 Azariah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in David’s city; and Jotham his son reigned in his place.
8 Zacarías hijo de Jeroboán comenzó a reinar en Israel cuando Azarías llevaba treinta y ocho años reinando en Judá. Zacarías reinó en Samaria seis meses,
8 In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah, Zechariah the son of Jeroboam reigned over Israel in Samaria six months.
9 y fue un rey malo ante los ojos del Señor, a la manera de sus antecesores. A semejanza de Jeroboán hijo de Nabat, fomentó en Israel el pecado de la adoración a los ídolos.
9 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, as his fathers had done. He didn’t depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin.
10 Entonces Salún hijo de Jabés conspiró contra él y lo asesinó en Ibleam, y tomó la corona.
10 Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and struck him before the people and killed him, and reigned in his place.
11 El resto de la historia de Zacarías está en el libro de los reyes de Israel.
11 Now the rest of the acts of Zechariah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
12 De esta manera se cumplió la afirmación que el Señor había hecho a Jehú: «Tu hijo, tu nieto y tu bisnieto serán reyes de Israel».
12 This was Yahweh’s word which he spoke to Jehu, saying, “Your sons to the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.” So it came to pass.
13 Salún hijo de Jabés comenzó a reinar en Israel en el año treinta y nueve del reinado de Uzías en Judá. Salún solo alcanzó a reinar durante un mes,
13 Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah king of Judah, and he reigned for a month in Samaria.
14 pues Menajem hijo de Gadí fue de Tirsá a Samaria y lo mató, y se apoderó del trono.
14 Menahem the son of Gadi went up from Tirzah, came to Samaria, struck Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria, killed him, and reigned in his place.
15 Los demás detalles del reinado de Salún y su conspiración están escritos en el libro de los reyes de Israel.
15 Now the rest of the acts of Shallum, and his conspiracy which he made, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
16 Menajem destruyó la ciudad de Tifsa y los lugares circundantes, comenzando por Tirsá, porque sus ciudadanos se negaron a aceptarlo como rey. Dio muerte a toda la población, y les abrió el vientre a las mujeres que estaban embarazadas.
16 Then Menahem attacked Tiphsah and all who were in it and its border areas, from Tirzah. He attacked it because they didn’t open their gates to him, and he ripped up all their women who were with child.
17 Menajem hijo de Gadí subió al trono de Israel en el año treinta y nueve del reinado de Azarías, rey de Judá. Reinó diez años en Samaria.
17 In the thirty ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem the son of Gadi began to reign over Israel for ten years in Samaria.
18 También fue un rey muy malo. Adoró ídolos, siguiendo así el ejemplo de Jeroboán hijo de Nabat que condujo al pueblo de Israel al pecado.
18 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight. He didn’t depart all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin.
19 Entonces el rey Pul, es decir, Tiglat Piléser, de Asiria, invadió la tierra, pero el rey Menajem lo compró con un regalo de treinta y tres mil kilos de plata, para que lo dejara seguir siendo rey de Israel. Para conseguir esa cantidad de plata, Menajem obligó a los ricos de Israel a entregar, como impuesto, medio kilo de plata. Entonces Tiglat Piléser se regresó a su tierra.
19 Pul the king of Assyria came against the land, and Menahem gave Pul one thousand talents of silver, that his hand might be with him to confirm the kingdom in his hand.
20 Not in this translation

23 In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekahiah the son of Menahem began to reign over Israel in Samaria for two years.
24 pero hizo lo que ofende al Señor, pues siguió el ejemplo de Jeroboán hijo de Nabat que hizo pecar a Israel, conduciéndolo a la idolatría.
24 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight. He didn’t depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin.
25 Entonces Pecaj hijo de Remalías, que era uno de los oficiales del ejército, conspiró contra él con cincuenta hombres de Galaad, y lo asesinaron en el palacio de Samaria. (Argob y Arié también murieron en aquella ocasión). Después de matar al rey, Pecaj se apoderó del trono de Israel.

29 Fue durante su reinado que el rey Tiglat Piléser, de los asirios, dirigió un ataque contra Israel. Capturó las ciudades de Iyón, Abel Betmacá, Janoa, Cedes, Jazor, Galaad, Galilea, y toda la tierra de Neftalí, y llevó al pueblo cautivo a Asiria.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 15:29 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of John (Homily XXXI)

    9, LXX.), but the inhabitants were termed not "Samaritans" but "Israelites." But as time went on, they offended God, and in the reign of Pekah, Tiglath-Pileser came up, and took many cities, and set upon Elah, and having slain him, gave the kingdom to Hoshea. ( 2 Kings xv.
