Ahaz
was twenty
years
old
when he began to reign,
and he reigned
sixteen
years
in Jerusalem:
but he did
not that which was right
in the sight
of the LORD,
like David
his father:
straightforward
εὐθὲς

For he walked in
the ways
of the kings
of Israel,
and made
also molten images
for Baalim.
Moreover he burnt incense
in the valley
of the son
of Hinnom,
and burnt
his children
in the fire,
after the abominations
of the heathen
whom the LORD
had cast out
before
the children
of Israel.

He sacrificed
also and burnt incense
in the high places,
and on the hills,
and under every green
tree.
Wherefore the LORD
his God
delivered
him into the hand
of the king
of Syria;
and they smote
him, and carried away
a great multitude
of them captives,
and brought
them to Damascus.
And he was also delivered
into the hand
of the king
of Israel,
who smote
him with a great
slaughter.
For Pekah
the son
of Remaliah
slew
in Judah
an hundred
and twenty
thousand
in one
day,
which were all valiant
men;
because they had forsaken
the LORD
God
of their fathers.

And Zichri,
a mighty man
of Ephraim,
slew
Maaseiah
the king's
son,
and Azrikam
the governor
of the house,
and Elkanah
that was next
to the king.

And the children
of Israel
carried away captive
of their brethren
two hundred
thousand,
women,
sons,
and daughters,
and took also away
much
spoil
from them, and brought
the spoil
to Samaria.

But a prophet
of the LORD
was there, whose name
was Oded:
and he went out
before
the host
that came
to Samaria,
and said
unto them, Behold, because the LORD
God
of your fathers
was wroth
with Judah,
he hath delivered
them into your hand,
and ye have slain
them in a rage
that reacheth up
unto heaven.

And now ye purpose
to keep under

and Jerusalem
for bondmen

with you, sins
against the LORD
your God?

Now hear
me therefore, and deliver
the captives
again, which ye have taken captive
of your brethren:
for the fierce
wrath
of the LORD
is upon you.
Then certain

of the children
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

from the war,

And said
unto them, Ye shall not bring in
the captives
hither: for whereas we have offended
against the LORD
already, ye intend
to add
more to our sins
and to our trespass:
for our trespass
is great,
and there is fierce
wrath
against Israel.
say
So the armed men
left
the captives
and the spoil
before
the princes
and all the congregation.
And the men
which were expressed
by name
rose up,
and took
the captives,
and with the spoil
clothed
all that were naked
among them, and arrayed
them, and shod
them, and gave them to eat
and to drink,
and anointed
them, and carried
all the feeble
of them upon asses,
and brought
them to Jericho,
the city
of palm trees,
to
their brethren:
then they returned
to Samaria.
At that time
did king
Ahaz
send
unto the kings
of Assyria
to help
him.
For again the Edomites
had come
and smitten
Judah,
and carried away
captives.
The Philistines
also had invaded
the cities
of the low country,
and of the south
of Judah,
and had taken
Bethshemesh,
and Ajalon,
and Gederoth,
and Shocho
with the villages
thereof, and Timnah
with the villages
thereof, Gimzo
also and the villages
thereof: and they dwelt
there.

For the LORD
brought
Judah
low
because of Ahaz
king
of Israel;
for he made
Judah
naked,
and transgressed
sore
against the LORD.
And Tilgathpilneser
king
of Assyria
came
unto him, and distressed
him, but strengthened
him not.
For Ahaz
took away a portion
out of the house
of the LORD,
and out of the house
of the king,
and of the princes,
and gave
it unto the king
of Assyria:
but he helped
him not.

And in the time
of his distress
did he trespass
yet more
against the LORD:
this is that king
Ahaz.
For he sacrificed
unto the gods
of Damascus,
which smote
him: and he said,
Because the gods
of the kings
of Syria
help
them, therefore will I sacrifice
to them, that they may help
me. But they were the ruin
of him, and of all Israel.

And Ahaz
gathered together
the vessels
of the house
of God,
and cut in pieces
the vessels
of the house
of God,
and shut up
the doors
of the house
of the LORD,
and he made
him altars
in every corner
of Jerusalem.
And in every several city
of Judah
he made
high places
to burn incense
unto other
gods,
and provoked to anger
the LORD
God
of his fathers.
Now the rest
of his acts
and of all his ways,
first
and last,
behold, they are written
in the book
of the kings
of Judah
and Israel.
And Ahaz
slept
with his fathers,
and they buried
him in the city,
even in Jerusalem:
but they brought
him not into the sepulchres
of the kings
of Israel:
and Hezekiah
his son
reigned
in his stead.
