历代志下 28
1 亚哈斯登基的时候年二十岁，在耶路撒冷作王十六年；不像他祖大卫行耶和华眼中看为正的事，
Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and he did not do that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, like David his father;
2 却行以色列诸王的道，又铸造巴力的像，
but he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made also molten images for the Baals.
3 并且在欣嫩子谷烧香，用火焚烧他的儿女，行耶和华在以色列人面前所驱逐的外邦人那可憎的事；
Moreover he burnt incense in the Valley of Ben Hinnom, and made his sons pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the nations whom Jehovah cast out before the children of Israel.
4 并在邱坛上、山冈上、各青翠树下献祭烧香。
He sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
5 所以，耶和华—他的 神将他交在亚兰王手里。亚兰王打败他，掳了他许多的民，带到大马士革去。 神又将他交在以色列王手里，以色列王向他大行杀戮。
Therefore Jehovah his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Aram; and they struck him, and carried away of his 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 利玛利的儿子比加一日杀了犹大人十二万，都是勇士，因为他们离弃了耶和华—他们列祖的 神。
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 Jehovah, the God of their fathers.
7 有一个以法莲中的勇士，名叫细基利，杀了王的儿子玛西雅和管理王宫的押斯利甘，并宰相以利加拿。
Zikri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah the king's son, and Azrikam the ruler of the house, and Elkanah who was next to the king.
8 以色列人掳了他们的弟兄，连妇人带儿女共有二十万，又掠了许多的财物，带到撒马利亚去了。
The children of Israel carried away captive of their brothers two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and took also away much spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.
9 但那里有耶和华的一个先知，名叫俄德，出来迎接往撒马利亚去的军兵，对他们说：“因为耶和华—你们列祖的 神恼怒犹大人，所以将他们交在你们手里，你们竟怒气冲天，大行杀戮。
But a prophet of Jehovah was there, whose name was Oded: and he went out to meet the army that came to Samaria, and said to them, "Look, because Jehovah, 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 如今你们又有意强逼犹大人和耶路撒冷人作你们的奴婢，你们岂不也有得罪耶和华—你们 神的事吗？
Now you purpose to keep under the people of Judah and Jerusalem for bondservants and bondmaids for yourselves. Aren't there even with you trespasses of your own against Jehovah your God?
11 现在你们当听我说，要将掳来的弟兄释放回去，因为耶和华向你们已经大发烈怒。”
Now hear me therefore, and send back the captives, that you have taken captive from your brothers; for the fierce wrath of Jehovah is on you."
12 于是，以法莲人的几个族长—就是约哈难的儿子亚撒利雅、米实利末的儿子比利家、沙龙的儿子耶希西家、哈得莱的儿子亚玛撒—起来拦挡出兵回来的人，
Then some of the heads of the people of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, and Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against those who came from the war,
13 对他们说：“你们不可带进这被掳的人来！你们想要使我们得罪耶和华，加增我们的罪恶过犯？因为我们的罪过甚大，已经有烈怒临到以色列人了。”
and said to them, "You shall not bring in the captives here: for you purpose that which will bring on us a trespass against Jehovah, to add to our sins and to our trespass; for our trespass is great, and there is fierce wrath against Israel."
14 于是带兵器的人将掳来的人口和掠来的财物都留在众首领和会众的面前。
So the armed men left the captives and the spoil before the leaders and all the assembly.
15 以上提名的那些人就站起，使被掳的人前来；其中有赤身的，就从所掠的财物中拿出衣服和鞋来，给他们穿，又给他们吃喝，用膏抹他们；其中有软弱的，就使他们骑驴，送到棕树城耶利哥他们弟兄那里；随后就回撒马利亚去了。
The men who have been mentioned by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all who were naked among them, dressed them, gave them sandals, and 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 那时，亚哈斯王差遣人去见亚述诸王，求他们帮助；
At that time king Ahaz sent to the king of Assyria to help him.
17 因为以东人又来攻击犹大，掳掠子民。
For again the Edomites had come and struck Judah, and carried away captives.
18 非利士人也来侵占高原和犹大南方的城邑，取了伯·示麦、亚雅 、基低罗，梭哥和属梭哥的乡村，亭纳和属亭纳的乡村，瑾锁和属瑾锁的乡村，就住在那里。
The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the lowland, and of the Negev of Judah, and had taken Beth Shemesh, and Aijalon, and Gederoth, and Soco with its towns, and Timnah with its towns, Gimzo also and its towns: and they lived there.
19 因为以色列王亚哈斯在犹大放肆，大大干犯耶和华，所以耶和华使犹大卑微。
For Jehovah brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel; for he had dealt wantonly in Judah, and trespassed severely against Jehovah.
20 亚述王提革拉·毗列色上来，却没有帮助他，反倒欺凌他。
Tilgath Pilneser king of Assyria came to him, and distressed him, but did not strengthen him.
21 亚哈斯从耶和华殿里和王宫中，并首领家内所取的财宝给了亚述王，这也无济于事。
For Ahaz took away a portion out of the house of Jehovah, and out of the house of the king and of the princes, and gave it to the king of Assyria: but it did not help him.
22 这亚哈斯王在急难的时候，越发得罪耶和华。
In the time of his distress, he trespassed yet more against Jehovah, this same king Ahaz.
23 他祭祀攻击他的大马士革之神，说：“因为亚兰王的神帮助他们，我也献祭与他，他好帮助我。”但那些神使他和以色列众人败亡了。
For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus, which struck him; and he said, "Because the gods of the kings of Aram helped them, so I will sacrifice to them, that they may help me." But they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel.
24 亚哈斯将 神殿里的器皿都聚了来，毁坏了，且封锁耶和华殿的门；在耶路撒冷各处的拐角建筑祭坛，
Ahaz gathered together the vessels of God's house, and cut in pieces the vessels of God's house, and shut up the doors of the house of Jehovah; and he made him altars in every corner of Jerusalem.
25 又在犹大各城建立邱坛，与别神烧香，惹动耶和华—他列祖 神的怒气。
In every city of Judah he made high places to burn incense to other gods, and provoked to anger Jehovah, the God of his fathers.
26 亚哈斯其余的事和他的行为，自始至终都写在犹大和以色列诸王记上。
Now the rest of his acts, and all his ways, first and last, look, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
27 亚哈斯与他列祖同睡，葬在耶路撒冷城里，没有送入以色列诸王的坟墓中。他儿子希西家接续他作王。
Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, even in Jerusalem; for they did not bring him into the tombs of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his place.
