KING JAMES BIBLESMITH VAN DYKE
1 Amaziah was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.1 ملك امصيا وهو ابن خمس وعشرين سنة وملك تسعا وعشرين سنة في اورشليم واسم امه يهوعدّان من اورشليم.
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, but not with a perfect heart.2 وعمل المستقيم في عيني الرب ولكن ليس بقلب كامل.
3 Now it came to pass, when the kingdom was established to him, that he slew his servants that had killed the king his father.3 ولما تثبتت المملكة عليه قتل عبيده الذين قتلوا الملك اباه.
4 But he slew not their children, but did as it is written in the law in the book of Moses, where the LORD commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers, but every man shall die for his own sin.4 واما بنوهم فلم يقتلهم بل كما هو مكتوب في الشريعة في سفر موسى حيث أمر الرب قائلا لا تموت الآباء لاجل البنين ولا البنون يموتون لاجل الآباء. بل كل واحد يموت لاجل خطيته
5 Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and made them captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, according to the houses of their fathers, throughout all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and above, and found them three hundred thousand choice men, able to go forth to war, that could handle spear and shield.5 وجمع امصيا يهوذا واقامهم حسب بيوت الآباء رؤساء الوف ورؤساء مئات في كل يهوذا وبنيامين واحصاهم من ابن عشرين سنة فما فوق فوجدهم ثلاث مئة الف مختار خارج للحرب حامل رمح وترس.
6 He hired also an hundred thousand mighty men of valour out of Israel for an hundred talents of silver.6 واستأجر من اسرائيل مئة الف جبار بأس بمئة وزنة من الفضة.
7 But there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for the LORD is not with Israel, to wit, with all the children of Ephraim.7 وجاء اليه رجل الله قائلا ايها الملك لا يأتي معك جيش اسرائيل لان الرب ليس مع اسرائيل مع كل بني افرايم.
8 But if thou wilt go, do it, be strong for the battle: God shall make thee fall before the enemy: for God hath power to help, and to cast down.8 وان ذهبت انت فاعمل وتشدد للقتال لان الله يسقطك امام العدو لان عند الله قوة للمساعدة وللاسقاط.
9 And Amaziah said to the man of God, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God answered, The LORD is able to give thee much more than this.9 فقال امصيا لرجل الله فماذا يعمل لاجل المئة الوزنة التي اعطيتها لغزاة اسرائيل. فقال رجل الله ان الرب قادر ان يعطيك اكثر من هذه.
10 Then Amaziah separated them, to wit, the army that was come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger.10 فأفرز امصيا الغزاة الذين جاءوا اليه من افرايم لكي ينطلقوا الى مكانهم فحمي غضبهم جدا على يهوذا ورجعوا الى مكانهم بحمو الغضب
11 And Amaziah strengthened himself, and led forth his people, and went to the valley of salt, and smote of the chidren of Seir ten thousand.11 واما امصيا فتشدد واقتاد شعبه وذهب الى وادي الملح وضرب من بني ساعير عشرة آلاف.
12 And other ten thousand left alive did the children of Judah carry away captive, and brought them unto the top of the rock, and cast them down from the top of the rock, that they all were broken in pieces.12 وعشرة آلاف احياء سباهم بنو يهوذا وأتوا بهم الى راس سالع وطرحوهم عن راس سالع فتكسروا اجمعون.
13 But the soldiers of the army which Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell upon the cities of Judah, from Samaria even unto Beth-horon, and smote three thousand of them, and took much spoil.13 واما الرجال الغزاة الذين ارجعهم امصيا عن الذهاب معه الى القتال فاقتحموا مدن يهوذا من السامرة الى بيت حورون وضربوا منهم ثلاث آلاف ونهبوا نهبا كثيرا
14 Now it came to pass, after that Amaziah was come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense unto them.14 ثم بعد مجيء امصيا من ضرب الادوميين أتى بآلهة بني ساعير واقامهم له آلهة وسجد امامهم واوقد لهم.
15 Wherefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against Amaziah, and he sent unto him a prophet, which said unto him, Why hast thou sought after the gods of the people, which could not deliver their own people out of thine hand?15 فحمي غضب الرب على امصيا وارسل اليه نبيا فقال له لماذا طلبت آلهة الشعب الذي لم ينقذوا شعبهم من يدك.
16 And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that the king said unto him, Art thou made of the king's counsel? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet forbare, and said, I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel.16 وفيما هو يكلمه قال له هل جعلوك مشيرا للملك. كف. لماذا يقتلونك. فكف النبي وقال قد علمت ان الله قد قضى بهلاكك لانك عملت هذا ولم تسمع لمشورتي.
17 Then Amaziah king of Judah took advice, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us see one another in the face.17 فاستشار امصيا ملك يهوذا وارسل الى يواش بن يهوآحاز بن ياهو ملك اسرائيل قائلا هلم نتراء مواجهة.
18 And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon, and trode down the thistle.18 فارسل يواش ملك اسرائيل الى امصيا ملك يهوذا قائلا. العوسج الذي في لبنان ارسل الى الارز الذي في لبنان يقول اعطي ابنتك لابني امرأة. فعبر حيوان بري كان في لبنان وداس العوسج.
19 Thou sayest, Lo, thou hast smitten the Edomites; and thine heart lifteth thee up to boast: abide now at home; why shouldest thou meddle to thine hurt, that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee?19 تقول هانذا قد ضربت ادوم فرفعك قلبك للتمجد. فالآن اقم في بيتك. لماذا تهجم على الشر فتسقط انت ويهوذا معك.
20 But Amaziah would not hear; for it came of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they sought after the gods of Edom.20 فلم يسمع امصيا لانه كان من قبل الله ان يسلّمهم لانهم طلبوا آلهة ادوم.
21 So Joash the king of Israel went up; and they saw one another in the face, both he and Amaziah king of Judah, at Beth-shemesh, which belongeth to Judah.21 وصعد يواش ملك اسرائيل فتراءيا مواجهة هو وامصيا ملك يهوذا في بيت شمس التي ليهوذا.
22 And Judah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fled every man to his tent.22 فانهزم يهوذا امام اسرائيل وهربوا كل واحد الى خيمته.
23 And Joash the king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth-shemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.23 واما امصيا ملك يهوذا ابن يواش بن يهوآحاز فامسكه يوآش ملك اسرائيل في بيت شمس وجاء به الى اورشليم وهدم سور اورشليم من باب افرايم الى باب الزاوية اربع مئة ذراع.
24 And he took all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of God with Obed-edom, and the treasures of the king's house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.24 واخذ كل الذهب والفضة وكل الآنية الموجودة في بيت الله مع عبيد ادوم وخزائن بيت الملك والرهناء ورجع الى السامرة.
25 And Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.25 وعاش امصيا بن يوآش ملك يهوذا بعد موت يوآش بن يهوآحاز ملك اسرائيل خمس عشرة سنة.
26 Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, are they not written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?26 وبقية امور امصيا الاولى والاخيرة أما هي مكتوبة في سفر ملوك يهوذا واسرائيل.
27 Now after the time that Amaziah did turn away from following the LORD they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him, and slew him there.27 ومن حين حاد امصيا من وراء الرب فتنوا عليه في اورشليم فهرب الى لخيش فارسلوا وراءه الى لخيش وقتلوه هناك
28 And they brought him upon horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of Judah.28 وحملوه على الخيل ودفنوه مع آبائه في مدينة يهوذا
