¹In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.

¹في السنة السابعة عشرة لفقح بن رمليا ملك آحاز بن يوثام ملك يهوذا.

²Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and did not that which was right in the sight of the LORD his God, like David his father.

²كان آحاز ابن عشرين سنة حين ملك. وملك ست عشرة سنة في اورشليم. ولم يعمل المستقيم في عيني الرب الهه كداود ابيه

³But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yea, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel.

³بل سار في طريق ملوك اسرائيل حتى انه عبّر ابنه في النار حسب ارجاس الامم الذين طردهم الرب من امام بني اسرائيل.

⁴And he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.

⁴وذبح واوقد على المرتفعات وعلى التلال وتحت كل شجرة خضراء.

⁵Then Rezin king of Syria and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war: and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome him.

⁵حينئذ صعد رصين ملك ارام وفقح بن رمليا ملك اسرائيل الى اورشليم للمحاربة فحاصروا آحاز ولم يقدروا ان يغلبوه.

⁶At that time Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath to Syria, and drave the Jews from Elath: and the Syrians came to Elath, and dwelt there unto this day.

⁶في ذلك الوقت ارجع رصين ملك ارام ايلة للاراميين وطرد اليهود من ايلة وجاء الاراميون الى ايلة واقاموا هناك الى هذا اليوم.

⁷So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, saying, I am thy servant and thy son: come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, which rise up against me.

⁷وارسل آحاز رسلا الى تغلث فلاسر ملك اشور قائلا. انا عبدك وابنك. اصعد وخلّصني من يد ملك ارام ومن يد ملك اسرائيل القائمين عليّ.

⁸And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it for a present to the king of Assyria.

⁸فاخذ آحاز الفضة والذهب الموجودة في بيت الرب وفي خزائن بيت الملك وارسلها الى ملك اشور هدية.

⁹And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him: for the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried the people of it captive to Kir, and slew Rezin.

⁹فسمع له ملك اشور وصعد ملك اشور الى دمشق واخذها وسباها الى قير وقتل رصين.

¹⁰And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, and saw an altar that was at Damascus: and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship thereof.

¹⁰وسار الملك آحاز للقاء تغلث فلاسر ملك اشور الى دمشق. ورأى المذبح الذي في دمشق. وارسل الملك آحاز الى اوريا الكاهن شبه المذبح وشكله حسب كل صناعته.

¹¹And Urijah the priest built an altar according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus: so Urijah the priest made it against king Ahaz came from Damascus.

¹¹فبنى اوريا الكاهن مذبحا حسب كل ما ارسل الملك آحاز من دمشق كذلك عمل اوريا الكاهن ريثما جاء الملك آحاز من دمشق.

¹²And when the king was come from Damascus, the king saw the altar: and the king approached to the altar, and offered thereon.

¹²فلما قدم الملك من دمشق رأى الملك المذبح فتقدم الملك الى المذبح واصعد عليه

¹³And he burnt his burnt offering and his meat offering, and poured his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings, upon the altar.

¹³واوقد محرقته وتقدمته وسكب سكيبه ورشّ دم ذبيحة السلامة التي له على المذبح.

¹⁴And he brought also the brazen altar, which was before the LORD, from the forefront of the house, from between the altar and the house of the LORD, and put it on the north side of the altar.

¹⁴ومذبح النحاس الذي امام الرب قدّمه من امام البيت من بين المذبح وبيت الرب وجعله على جانب المذبح الشمالي.

¹⁵And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, Upon the great altar burn the morning burnt offering, and the evening meat offering, and the king's burnt sacrifice, and his meat offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their meat offering, and their drink offerings; and sprinkle upon it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice: and the brazen altar shall be for me to enquire by.

¹⁵وأمر الملك آحاز اوريا الكاهن قائلا. على المذبح العظيم أوقد محرقة الصباح وتقدمة المساء ومحرقة الملك وتقدمته مع محرقة كل شعب الارض وتقدمتهم وسكائبهم ورشّ عليه كل دم محرقة وكل دم ذبيحة. ومذبح النحاس يكون لي للسؤال.

¹⁶Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.

¹⁶فعمل اوريا الكاهن حسب كل ما امر به الملك آحاز.

¹⁷And king Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them; and took down the sea from off the brazen oxen that were under it, and put it upon the pavement of stones.

¹⁷وقطع الملك آحاز اتراس القواعد ورفع عنها المرحضة وانزل البحر عن ثيران النحاس التي تحته وجعله على رصيف من حجارة.

¹⁸And the covert for the sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry without, turned he from the house of the LORD for the king of Assyria.

¹⁸ورواق السبت الذي بنوه في البيت ومدخل الملك من خارج غيّره في بيت الرب من اجل ملك اشور.

¹⁹Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

¹⁹وبقية امور آحاز التي عمل أما هي مكتوبة في سفر اخبار الايام لملوك يهوذا.

²⁰And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.

²⁰ثم اضطجع آحاز مع آبائه ودفن مع آبائه في مدينة داود وملك حزقيا ابنه عوضا عنه
