2 Chronicles 28
1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for sixteen years; he did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord, like David his father:
viginti annorum erat Achaz cum regnare coepisset et sedecim annis regnavit in Hierusalem non fecit rectum in conspectu Domini sicut David pater eius
2 But he went in the ways of the kings of Israel and made images of metal for the Baals.
sed ambulavit in viis regum Israhel insuper et statuas fudit Baalim
3 More than this, he had offerings burned in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and made his children go through fire, copying the disgusting ways of the nations whom the Lord had sent out of the land before the children of Israel.
ipse est qui adolevit incensum in valle Benennon et lustravit filios suos in igne iuxta ritum gentium quas interfecit Dominus in adventu filiorum Israhel
4 And he made offerings and had perfumes burned in the high places and on the hills and under every green tree.
sacrificabat quoque et thymiama succendebat in excelsis et in collibus et sub omni ligno frondoso
5 So the Lord his God gave him up into the hands of the king of Aram; and they overcame him, and took away a great number of his people as prisoners to Damascus. Then he was given into the hands of the king of Israel, who sent great destruction on him.
tradiditque eum Dominus Deus eius in manu regis Syriae qui percussit eum magnamque praedam de eius cepit imperio et adduxit in Damascum manibus quoque regis Israhel traditus est et percussus plaga grandi
6 For Pekah, the son of Remaliah, in one day put to death a hundred and twenty thousand men of Judah, all of them good fighting-men; because they had given up the Lord, the God of their fathers.
occiditque Phacee filius Romeliae de Iuda centum viginti milia in die uno omnes viros bellatores eo quod reliquissent Dominum Deum patrum suorum
7 And Zichri, a great fighting-man of Ephraim, put to death Maaseiah, the king's son, and Azrikam, the controller of his house, and Elkanah, who was second in authority to the king.
eodem tempore occidit Zechri vir potens ex Ephraim Masiam filium regis et Ezricam ducem domus eius Helcanam quoque secundum a rege
8 And the children of Israel took away as prisoners from their brothers, two hundred thousand, women and sons and daughters, and a great store of their goods, and took them to Samaria.
ceperuntque filii Israhel de fratribus suis ducenta milia mulierum puerorum et puellarum et infinitam praedam pertuleruntque eam in Samariam
9 But a prophet of the Lord was there, named Oded; and he went out in front of the army which was coming into Samaria and said to them, Truly, because the Lord, the God of your fathers, was angry with Judah, he gave them up into your hands, and you have put them to death in an outburst of wrath stretching up to heaven.
ea tempestate erat ibi propheta Domini nomine Oded qui egressus obviam exercitui venientium in Samariam dixit eis ecce iratus Dominus Deus patrum vestrorum contra Iudam tradidit eos manibus vestris et occidistis illos atrociter ita ut caelum pertingeret vestra crudelitas
10 And now your purpose is to keep the children of Judah and Jerusalem as men-servants and women-servants under your yoke: but are there no sins against the Lord your God to be seen among yourselves?
insuper filios Iuda et Hierusalem vultis vobis subicere in servos et ancillas quod nequaquam facto opus est peccatis enim super hoc Domino Deo vestro
11 And now give ear to me, and send back the prisoners whom you have taken from your brothers: for the wrath of the Lord is burning against you.
sed audite consilium meum et reducite captivos quos adduxistis de fratribus vestris quia magnus furor Domini inminet vobis
12 Then certain 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, put themselves against those who had come from the war,
steterunt itaque viri de principibus filiorum Ephraim Azarias filius Iohanan Barachias filius Mosollamoth Hiezechias filius Sellum et Amasa filius Adali contra eos qui veniebant de proelio
13 And said to them, You are not to let these prisoners come here; for what you are designing to do will be a cause of sin against the Lord to us, making even greater our sin and our wrongdoing, which now are great enough, and his wrath is burning against Israel.
et dixerunt eis non introducetis huc captivos ne peccemus Domino quare vultis adicere super peccata nostra et vetera cumulare delicta grande quippe peccatum est et ira furoris Domini inminet super Israhel
14 So the armed men gave up the prisoners and the goods they had taken to the heads and the meeting of the people.
dimiseruntque viri bellatores praedam et universa quae ceperant coram principibus et omni multitudine
15 And those men who have been named went up and took the prisoners, clothing those among them who were uncovered, with things from the goods which had been taken in the war, and putting robes on them and shoes on their feet; and they gave them food and drink and oil for their bodies, and seating all the feeble among them on asses, they took them to Jericho, the town of palm-trees, to their people, and then went back to Samaria.
steteruntque viri quos supra memoravimus et adprehendentes captivos omnesque qui nudi erant vestierunt de spoliis cumque vestissent eos et calciassent et refecissent cibo ac potu unxissent quoque propter laborem et adhibuissent eis curam quicumque ambulare non poterant et erant inbecillo corpore inposuerunt eos iumentis et adduxerunt Hierichum civitatem Palmarum ad fratres eorum ipsique reversi sunt Samariam
16 At that time King Ahaz sent for help to the king of Assyria.
tempore illo misit rex Achaz ad regem Assyriorum auxilium postulans
17 For the Edomites had come again, attacking Judah and taking away prisoners.
veneruntque Idumei et percusserunt multos ex Iuda et ceperunt praedam magnam
18 And the Philistines, forcing their way into the towns of the lowlands and the south of Judah, had taken Beth-shemesh and Aijalon and Gederoth and Soco, with their daughter-towns, as well as Timnah and Gimzo and their daughter-towns, and were living there.
Philisthim quoque diffusi sunt per urbes campestres et ad meridiem Iuda ceperuntque Bethsames et Ahilon et Gaderoth Soccho quoque et Thamnam et Gamzo cum viculis suis et habitaverunt in eis
19 For the Lord made Judah low, because of Ahaz, king of Israel; for he had given up all self-control in Judah, sinning greatly against the Lord.
humiliaverat enim Dominus Iudam propter Achaz regem Iuda eo quod nudasset eum auxilio et contemptui habuisset Dominum
20 Then Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, came to him, but was a cause of trouble and not of strength to him.
adduxitque contra eum Thaglathphalnasar regem Assyriorum qui et adflixit eum et nullo resistente vastavit
21 For Ahaz took a part of the wealth from the house of the Lord, and from the house of the king and of the great men, and gave it to the king of Assyria; but it was no help to him.
igitur Achaz spoliata domo Domini et domo regum et principum dedit regi Assyriorum munera et tamen nihil ei profuit
22 And in the time of his trouble, this same King Ahaz did even more evil against the Lord.
insuper et in tempore angustiae suae auxit contemptum in Dominum ipse per se rex Achaz
23 For he made offerings to the gods of Damascus, who were attacking him, and said, Because the gods of the kings of Aram are giving them help, I will make offerings to them so that they may give me help. But they were the cause of his downfall, and of that of all Israel.
immolavit diis Damasci victimas percussoribus suis et dixit dii regum Syriae auxiliantur eis quos ego placabo hostiis et aderunt mihi cum e contrario ipsi fuerint ruina eius et universo Israhel
24 And Ahaz got together the vessels of the house of God, cutting up all the vessels of the house of God, and shutting the doors of the Lord's house; and he made altars in every part of Jerusalem.
direptis itaque Achaz omnibus vasis domus Dei atque confractis clusit ianuas templi Dei et fecit sibi altaria in universis angulis Hierusalem
25 And in every town of Judah he made high places where perfumes were burned to other gods, awaking the wrath of the Lord, the God of his fathers.
in omnibus quoque urbibus Iuda extruxit aras ad cremandum tus atque ad iracundiam provocavit Dominum Deum patrum suorum
26 Now the rest of his acts and all his ways, first and last, are recorded in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
reliqua autem sermonum eius et omnium operum priorum et novissimorum scripta sunt in libro regum Iuda et Israhel
27 And Ahaz went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body into the earth in Jerusalem; but they did not put him in the resting-place of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son became king in his place.
dormivitque Achaz cum patribus suis et sepelierunt eum in civitate Hierusalem neque enim receperunt eum in sepulchra regum Israhel regnavitque Ezechias filius eius pro eo
