14 1In the second year of Joash the son of Joahaz, king of Israel, Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, began to reign.AMAZIAH king of Judah. (795 BCE) 2Kgs.14.1-16 | 2Chr.25.1-24בִּשְׁנַת שְׁתַּיִם לְיֹואָשׁ בֶּן־יֹואָחָז מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל מָלַךְ אֲמַצְיָהוּ בֶן־יֹואָשׁ מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה׃
2He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jehoaddin of Jerusalem. בֶּן־עֶשְׂרִים וְחָמֵשׁ שָׁנָה הָיָה בְמָלְכֹו וְעֶשְׂרִים וָתֵשַׁע שָׁנָה מָלַךְ בִּירוּשָׁלִָם וְשֵׁם אִמֹּו כ= יְהֹועַדִּין ק= יְהֹועַדָּן מִן־יְרוּשָׁלִָם׃
3And he did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, yet not like David his father; he did in all things as Joash his father had done. וַיַּעַשׂ הַיָּשָׁר בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה רַק לֹא כְּדָוִד אָבִיו כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂה יֹואָשׁ אָבִיו עָשָׂה׃
4But the high places were not removed; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places. רַק הַבָּמֹות לֹא־סָרוּ עֹוד הָעָם מְזַבְּחִים וּמְקַטְּרִים בַּבָּמֹות׃
5And as soon as the royal power was firmly in his hand he killed his servants who had slain the king his father. וַיְהִי כַּאֲשֶׁר חָזְקָה הַמַּמְלָכָה בְּיָדֹו וַיַּךְ אֶת־עֲבָדָיו הַמַּכִּים אֶת־הַמֶּלֶךְ אָבִיו׃
6But he did not put to death the children of the murderers; according to what is written in the book of the law of Moses, where Yahweh commanded, "The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, or the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin." וְאֶת־בְּנֵי הַמַּכִּים לֹא הֵמִית כַּכָּתוּב בְּסֵפֶר תֹּורַת־מֹשֶׁה אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּה יְהוָה לֵאמֹר לֹא־יוּמְתוּ אָבֹות עַל־בָּנִים וּבָנִים לֹא־יוּמְתוּ עַל־אָבֹות כִּי אִם־אִישׁ בְּחֶטְאֹו כ= יָמוּת ק= יוּמָת׃
7He killed ten thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt and took Sela by storm, and called it Jokthe-el, which is its name to this day. הוּא־הִכָּה אֶת־אֱדֹום בְּגֵיא־כ= הַמֶּלַח ק= מֶלַח עֲשֶׂרֶת אֲלָפִים וְתָפַשׂ אֶת־הַסֶּלַע בַּמִּלְחָמָה וַיִּקְרָא אֶת־שְׁמָהּ יָקְתְאֵל עַד הַיֹּום הַזֶּה׃ ף
8Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us look one another in the face." אָז שָׁלַח אֲמַצְיָה מַלְאָכִים אֶל־יְהֹואָשׁ בֶּן־יְהֹואָחָז בֶּן־יֵהוּא מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל לֵאמֹר לְכָה נִתְרָאֶה פָנִים׃
9And Jehoash king of Israel sent word to Amaziah king of Judah, "A thistle on Lebanon sent to a cedar on Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son for a wife'; and a wild beast of Lebanon passed by and trampled down the thistle. וַיִּשְׁלַח יְהֹואָשׁ מֶלֶךְ־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל־אֲמַצְיָהוּ מֶלֶךְ־יְהוּדָה לֵאמֹר הַחֹוחַ אֲשֶׁר בַּלְּבָנֹון שָׁלַח אֶל־הָאֶרֶז אֲשֶׁר בַּלְּבָנֹון לֵאמֹר תְּנָה־אֶת־בִּתְּךָ לִבְנִי לְאִשָּׁה וַתַּעֲבֹר חַיַּת הַשָּׂדֶה אֲשֶׁר בַּלְּבָנֹון וַתִּרְמֹס אֶת־הַחֹוחַ׃
10You have indeed smitten Edom, and your heart has lifted you up. Be content with your glory, and stay at home; for why should you provoke trouble so that you fall, you and Judah with you?" הַכֵּה הִכִּיתָ אֶת־אֱדֹום וּנְשָׂאֲךָ לִבֶּךָ הִכָּבֵד וְשֵׁב בְּבֵיתֶךָ וְלָמָּה תִתְגָּרֶה בְּרָעָה וְנָפַלְתָּה אַתָּה וִיהוּדָה עִמָּךְ׃
11But Amaziah would not listen. So Jehoash king of Israel went up, and he and Amaziah king of Judah faced one another in battle at Beth-shemesh, which belongs to Judah. וְלֹא־שָׁמַע אֲמַצְיָהוּ וַיַּעַל יְהֹואָשׁ מֶלֶךְ־יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּתְרָאוּ פָנִים הוּא וַאֲמַצְיָהוּ מֶלֶךְ־יְהוּדָה בְּבֵית שֶׁמֶשׁ אֲשֶׁר לִיהוּדָה׃
12And Judah was defeated by Israel, and every man fled to his home. וַיִּנָּגֶף יְהוּדָה לִפְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיָּנֻסוּ אִישׁ כ= לְאָהֳלֹו ק= לְאֹהָלָיו׃
13And Jehoash king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Jehoash, son of Ahaziah, at Beth-shemesh, and came to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem for four hundred cubits, from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate. וְאֵת אֲמַצְיָהוּ מֶלֶךְ־יְהוּדָה בֶּן־יְהֹואָשׁ בֶּן־אֲחַזְיָהוּ תָּפַשׂ יְהֹואָשׁ מֶלֶךְ־יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּבֵית שָׁמֶשׁ כ= וַיָּבֹאוּ ק= וַיָּבֹא יְרוּשָׁלִַם וַיִּפְרֹץ בְּחֹומַת יְרוּשָׁלִַם בְּשַׁעַר אֶפְרַיִם עַד־שַׁעַר הַפִּנָּה אַרְבַּע מֵאֹות אַמָּה׃
14And he seized all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of Yahweh and in the treasuries of the king's house, also hostages, and he returned to Samaria. וְלָקַח אֶת־כָּל־הַזָּהָב־וְהַכֶּסֶף וְאֵת כָּל־הַכֵּלִים הַנִּמְצְאִים בֵּית־יְהוָה וּבְאֹצְרֹות בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֵת בְּנֵי הַתַּעֲרֻבֹות וַיָּשָׁב שֹׁמְרֹונָה׃
15Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel? וְיֶתֶר דִּבְרֵי יְהֹואָשׁ אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה וּגְבוּרָתֹו וַאֲשֶׁר נִלְחַם עִם אֲמַצְיָהוּ מֶלֶךְ־יְהוּדָה הֲלֹא־הֵם כְּתוּבִים עַל־סֵפֶר דִּבְרֵי הַיָּמִים לְמַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל׃
16And Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead. וַיִּשְׁכַּב יְהֹואָשׁ עִם־אֲבֹתָיו וַיִּקָּבֵר בְּשֹׁמְרֹון עִם מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּמְלֹךְ יָרָבְעָם בְּנֹו תַּחְתָּיו׃ ף

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
