2 Mga Cronica 28

1Si Achaz ay may dalawangpung taon nang siya'y magpasimulang maghari; at siya'y nagharing labing anim na taon sa Jerusalem: at hindi siya gumawa ng matuwid sa harap ng mga mata ng Panginoon, na gaya ni David na kaniyang magulang. 2Kundi siya'y lumakad ng mga lakad ng mga hari sa Israel, at iginawa rin naman ng mga larawang binubo ang mga Baal. 3Bukod dito'y nagsunog siya ng kamangyan sa libis ng anak ni Hinnom, at sinunog ang kaniyang mga anak sa apoy, ayon sa mga karumaldumal ng mga bansa, na mga pinalayas ng Panginoon sa harap ng mga anak ni Israel. 4At siya'y naghain at nagsunog ng kamangyan sa mga mataas na dako, at sa mga burol, at sa ilalim ng bawa't punong kahoy na sariwa. 5Kaya't ibinigay ng Panginoon niyang Dios siya sa kamay ng hari sa Siria; at sinaktan nila siya, at tumangay sa kaniya ng isang malaking karamihang bihag, at mga dinala sa Damasco. At siya nama'y nabigay sa kamay ng hari sa Israel na siyang sumakit sa kaniya ng malaking pagpatay. 6Sapagka't si Peca na anak ni Remalias ay pumatay sa Juda ng isang daan at dalawangpung libo sa isang araw, silang lahat ay mga matapang na lalake; sapagka't kanilang pinabayaan ang Panginoon, ang Dios ng kanilang mga magulang. 7At pinatay ni Zichri, na makapangyarihang lalake sa Ephraim, si Maasias na anak ng hari, at si Azricam na pinuno sa bahay, at si Elcana na pangalawa ng hari. 8At ang mga anak ni Israel ay nagsipagdala ng bihag sa kanilang mga kapatid na dalawang daang libo, mga babae, mga anak na lalake at babae, at nagsipaglabas din ng maraming samsam na mula sa kanila, at dinala ang samsam sa Samaria. 9Nguni't isang propeta ng Panginoon ay nandoon, na ang pangalan ay Obed: at siya'y lumabas na sinalubong ang hukbo na dumarating sa Samaria, at sinabi sa kanila, Narito, sapagka't ang Panginoon, ang Dios ng inyong mga magulang, ay naginit sa Juda, ay ibinigay niya sila sa inyong kamay, at inyong pinatay sila sa isang pagaalab ng loob na umaabot hanggang sa langit. 10At ngayo'y inyong inaakalang pasukuin ang mga anak ni Juda at ng Jerusalem na maging pinaka aliping lalake at babae sa inyo: wala ba kayong pagsalangsang sa inyong sarili laban sa Panginoon ninyong Dios? 11Ngayo'y dinggin nga ninyo ako, at pabalikin ninyo ang mga bihag, na inyong kinuhang bihag sa inyong mga kapatid: sapagka't ang malaking pagiinit ng Panginoon ay dumating sa inyo. 12Nang magkagayo'y ilan sa mga pangulo sa mga anak ni Ephraim, si Azarias na anak ni Johanan, si Berachias na anak ni Mesillemoth at si Ezechias na anak ni Sallum, at si Amasa na anak ni Hadlai, ay nagsitayo laban sa kanila na nanggaling sa pakikipagdigma, 13At sinabi sa kanila, Huwag kayong magsisipagdala ng mga bihag dito: sapagka't inyong inaakala na magdala sa atin ng pagsalangsang laban sa Panginoon, upang idagdag sa ating mga kasalanan at sa ating mga pagsalangsang: sapagka't ang ating pagsalangsang ay malaki, at may malaking pagiinit laban sa Israel. 14Sa gayo'y iniwan ng mga lalaking may sakbat ang mga bihag at ang mga samsam sa harap ng mga prinsipe at ng buong kapisanan. 15At ang mga lalaking nasaysay sa pangalan ay nagsitindig, at kinuha ang mga bihag, at sa samsam ay binihisan ang lahat na hubad sa kanila, at dinamtan at sinapatusan, at mga pinakain at pinainom, at mga pinahiran ng langis, at dinala ang lahat na mahina sa kanila na nakasakay sa mga asno, at mga dinala sa Jerico, na bayan ng mga puno ng palma, sa kanilang mga kapatid: saka nagsibalik sila sa Samaria. 16Nang panahong yao'y nagsugo ang haring Achaz sa mga hari sa Asiria upang tulungan siya. 17Sapagka't nagsiparoon uli ang mga Idumeo at sinaktan ang Juda, at dinalang bihag. 18Nilusob naman ng mga Filisteo ang mga bayan ng mababang lupain, at ang Timugan ng Juda, at sinakop ang Beth-semes, at ang Ajalon, at ang Gederoth, at ang Socho pati ang mga nayon niyaon, at ang Timna pati ang mga nayon niyaon, ang Gimzo man at ang mga nayon niyaon: at sila'y nagsitahan doon. 19Sapagka't ibinaba ng Panginoon ang Juda dahil kay Achaz na hari sa Israel; sapagka't hinubaran ang Juda, at sumalangsang na mainam laban sa Panginoon. 20At si Tilgath-pilneser na hari sa Asiria ay naparoon sa kaniya, at ginipit siya, nguni't hindi siya pinalakas. 21Sapagka't si Achas ay kumuha ng bahagi sa bahay ng Panginoon, at sa bahay ng hari at sa mga prinsipe, at ibinigay sa hari sa Asiria: nguni't hindi siya tinulungan. 22At sa panahon ng kaniyang kagipitan ay lalo pa manding sumalangsang siya laban sa Panginoon, ang hari ring ito na si Achaz. 23Sapagka't siya'y naghain sa mga dios ng Damasco, na sumakit sa kaniya: at sinabi niya, Sapagka't tinulungan sila ng mga dios ng mga hari sa Siria, kaya't ako'y maghahain sa kanila, upang tulungan nila ako. Nguni't sila ang naging kapahamakan niya at ng buong Israel. 24At pinisan ni Achaz ang mga sisidlan ng bahay ng Dios, at pinagputolputol ang mga sisidlan ng bahay ng Dios, at isinara ang mga pinto ng bahay ng Panginoon; at siya'y gumawa sa kaniya ng mga dambana sa bawa't sulok ng Jerusalem. 25At sa bawa't iba't ibang bayan ng Juda ay gumawa siya ng mga mataas na dako upang pagsunugan ng kamangyan sa mga ibang dios, at minungkahi sa galit ang Panginoon, ang Dios ng kaniyang mga magulang. 26Ang iba nga sa kaniyang mga gawa, at ang lahat niyang mga lakad, na una at huli, narito, nangasusulat sa aklat ng mga hari sa Juda at Israel. 27At si Achaz ay natulog na kasama ng kaniyang mga magulang, at inilibing nila siya sa bayan, sa Jerusalem; sapagka't hindi nila dinala siya sa mga libingan ng mga hari sa Israel: at si Ezechias na kaniyang anak ay naghari na kahalili niya.

1Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and he didn’t do that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, like David his father; 2but he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made also molten images for the Baals. 3Moreover he burnt incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burnt his children in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations whom Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel. 4He sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree. 5Therefore Yahweh his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria; 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. 6For Pekah the son of Remaliah killed in Judah one hundred twenty thousand in one day, all of them valiant men; because they had forsaken Yahweh, the God of their fathers. 7Zichri, 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. 8The children of Israel carried away captive of their brothers two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and took also away much plunder from them, and brought the plunder to Samaria. 9But a prophet of Yahweh was there, whose name was Oded: and he went out to meet the army that came to Samaria, and said to them, “Behold, because Yahweh, 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. 10Now you purpose to keep under the children of Judah and Jerusalem for male and female slaves for yourselves. Aren’t there even with you trespasses of your own against Yahweh your God? 11Now hear me therefore, and send back the captives, that you have taken captive from your brothers; for the fierce wrath of Yahweh is on you.” 12Then some of the heads 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 against those who came from the war, 13and said to them, “You shall not bring in the captives here: for you purpose that which will bring on us a trespass against Yahweh, to add to our sins and to our trespass; for our trespass is great, and there is fierce wrath against Israel.” 14So the armed men left the captives and the plunder before the princes and all the assembly. 15The men who have been mentioned by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the plunder 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. 16At that time king Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria to help him. 17For again the Edomites had come and struck Judah, and carried away captives. 18The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the lowland, and of the South 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. 19For Yahweh brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel; for he had dealt wantonly in Judah, and trespassed severely against Yahweh. 20Tilgath Pilneser king of Assyria came to him, and distressed him, but didn’t strengthen him. 21For Ahaz took away a portion out of Yahweh’s house, and out of the house of the king and of the princes, and gave it to the king of Assyria: but it didn’t help him. 22In the time of his distress, he trespassed yet more against Yahweh, this same king Ahaz. 23For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus, which struck him; and he said, “Because the gods of the kings of Syria helped them, so I will sacrifice to them, that they may help me.” But they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel. 24Ahaz gathered together the vessels of God’s house, and cut in pieces the vessels of God’s house, and shut up the doors of Yahweh’s house; and he made him altars in every corner of Jerusalem. 25In every city of Judah he made high places to burn incense to other gods, and provoked to anger Yahweh, the God of his fathers. 26Now the rest of his acts, and all his ways, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel. 27Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, even in Jerusalem; for they didn’t bring him into the tombs of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his place.

1Achaz was twintig jaren oud, toen hij koning werd, en regeerde zestien jaren te Jeruzalem; en hij deed niet dat recht was in de ogen des HEEREN, gelijk zijn vader David; 2Maar hij wandelde in de wegen der koningen van Israel; daartoe maakte hij ook gegotene beelden voor de Baals. 3Dezelve rookte ook in het dal des zoons van Hinnom; en hij brandde zijn zonen in het vuur, naar de gruwelen der heidenen, die de HEERE voor het aangezicht der kinderen Israels uit de bezitting verdreven had. 4Ook offerde hij en rookte op de hoogten en op de heuvelen, mitsgaders onder alle groen geboomte. 5Daarom gaf hem de HEERE, zijn God, in de hand des konings van Syrie, dat zij hem sloegen, en van hem gevankelijk wegvoerden een grote menigte van gevangenen, die zij te Damaskus brachten. En hij werd ook gegeven in de hand des konings van Israel, die hem sloeg met een groten slag. 6Want Pekah, de zoon van Remalia, sloeg in Juda honderd en twintig duizend dood op een dag, allen strijdbare mannen, omdat zij den HEERE, den God hunner vaderen, verlaten hadden. 7En Zichri, een geweldig man van Efraim, sloeg Maaseja, den zoon des konings, dood, en Azirkam, den huisoverste, mitsgaders Elkana, den tweede na den koning. 8En de kinderen Israels voerden van hun broederen gevankelijk weg tweehonderd duizend, vrouwen, zonen en dochteren, en plunderden ook veel roofs van hen; en zij brachten den roof te Samaria. 9Aldaar nu was een profeet des HEEREN, wiens naam was Oded; die ging uit, het heir tegen, dat naar Samaria kwam, en zeide tot hen: Ziet, door de grimmigheid des HEEREN, des Gods uwer vaderen, over Juda, heeft Hij hen in uw hand gegeven, en gij hebt hen doodgeslagen in toornigheid, die tot aan den hemel raakt. 10Daartoe denkt gij nu de kinderen van Juda en Jeruzalem u tot slaven en slavinnen te onderwerpen; zijt gij het niet alleenlijk? Bij ulieden zijn schulden tegen den HEERE, uw God. 11Nu dan, hoort mij, en brengt de gevangenen weder, die gij van uw broederen gevankelijk weggevoerd hebt; want de hitte van des HEEREN toorn is over u. 12Toen maakten zich mannen op van de hoofden der kinderen van Efraim, Azaria, de zoon van Johanan, Berechja, de zoon van Mesillemoth en Jehizkia, de zoon van Sallum, en Amasa, de zoon van Hadlai, tegen degenen, die uit het heir kwamen. 13En zij zeiden tot hen: Gij zult deze gevangenen hier niet inbrengen, tot een schuld over ons tegen den HEERE; denkt gijlieden toe te doen tot onze zonden en tot onze schulden, hoewel wij vele schulden hebben, en de hitte des toorns over Israel is? 14Toen lieten de toegerusten de gevangenen en de roof voor het aangezicht der oversten en der ganse gemeente. 15De mannen nu, die met namen uitgedrukt zijn, maakten zich op, en grepen de gevangenen, en kleedden van den roof al hun naakten; en zij kleedden hen, en schoeiden hen, en spijsden hen, en drenkten hen, en zalfden hen, en voerden ze op ezelen, allen die zwak waren, en brachten hen te Jericho, de Palmstad, bij hun broederen; daarna keerden zij weder naar Samaria. 16Ter zelfder tijd zond de koning Achaz tot de koningen van Assyrie, dat zij hem helpen zouden. 17Daarenboven waren ook de Edomieten gekomen, en hadden Juda geslagen en gevangenen gevankelijk weggevoerd. 18Daartoe waren de Filistijnen in de steden der laagte en het zuiden van Juda ingevallen, en hadden ingenomen Beth-Semes, en Ajalon, en Gederoth, en Socho en haar onderhorige plaatsen, en Timna en haar onderhorige plaatsen, en Gimzo en haar onderhorige plaatsen; en zij woonden aldaar. 19Want de HEERE vernederde Juda, om der wille van Achaz, den koning Israels; want hij had Juda afgetrokken, dat het gans zeer overtrad tegen den HEERE. 20En Tiglath-Pilneser, de koning van Assyrie, kwam tot hem; doch hij benauwde hem, en sterkte hem niet. 21Want Achaz nam een deel van het huis des HEEREN, en van het huis des konings en der vorsten, hetwelk hij den koning van Assyrie gaf; maar hij hielp hem niet. 22Ja, ter tijd, als men hem benauwde, zo maakte hij des overtredens tegen den HEERE nog meer; dit was de koning Achaz. 23Want hij offerde den goden van Damaskus, die hem geslagen hadden, en zeide: Omdat de goden der koningen van Syrie hen helpen, zal ik hun offeren, opdat zij mij ook helpen; maar zij waren hem tot zijn val, mitsgaders aan gans Israel. 24En Achaz verzamelde de vaten van het huis Gods, en hieuw de vaten van het huis Gods in stukken, en sloot de deuren van het huis des HEEREN toe; daartoe maakte hij zich altaren in alle hoeken van Jeruzalem. 25Ook maakte hij in elke stad van Juda hoogten, om anderen goden te roken; alzo verwekte hij den HEERE, zijner vaderen God, tot toorn. 26Het overige nu der geschiedenissen, en al zijn wegen, de eerste en de laatste, ziet, zij zijn geschreven in het boek der koningen van Juda en Israel. 27En Achaz ontsliep met zijn vaderen, en zij begroeven hem in de stad te Jeruzalem; maar zij brachten hem niet in de graven der koningen van Israel; en zijn zoon Jehizkia werd koning in zijn plaats.
