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;
1كان آحاز ابن عشرين سنة حين ملك وملك ست عشرة سنة في اورشليم ولم يفعل المستقيم في عيني الرب كداود ابيه.
2but he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made also molten images for the Baals.
2بل سار في طرق ملوك اسرائيل وعمل ايضا تماثيل مسبوكة للبعليم.
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.
3وهو اوقد في وادي ابن هنوم واحرق بنيه بالنار حسب رجاسات الامم الذين طردهم الرب من امام بني اسرائيل.
4He 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.
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.
5فدفعه الرب الهه ليد ملك ارام. فضربوه وسبوا منه سبيا عظيما وأتوا بهم الى دمشق. ودفع ايضا ليد ملك اسرائيل فضربه ضربة عظيمة.
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.
6وقتل فقح بن رمليا في يهوذا مئة وعشرين الفا في يوم واحد. الجميع بنو بأس. لانهم تركوا الرب اله آبائهم.
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.
7وقتل زكري جبار افرايم معسيا ابن الملك وعزريقام رئيس البيت والقانة ثاني الملك.
8The children of Israel carried away captive of their brothers two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and took also away much spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.
8وسبى بني اسرائيل من اخوتهم مئتي الف من النساء والبنين والبنات ونهبوا ايضا منهم غنيمة وافرة واتوا بالغنيمة الى السامرة.
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.
9وكان هناك نبي للرب اسمه عوديد. فخرج للقاء الجيش الآتي الى السامرة وقال لهم. هوذا من اجل غضب الرب اله آبائكم على يهوذا قد دفعهم ليدكم وقد قتلتموهم بغضب بلغ السماء.
10Now you purpose to keep under the children of Judah and Jerusalem for bondservants and bondmaids for yourselves. Aren’t there even with you trespasses of your own against Yahweh your God?
10والآن انتم عازمون على اخضاع بني يهوذا واورشليم عبيدا واماء لكم. أما عندكم انتم آثام للرب الهكم.
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.”
11والآن اسمعوا لي وردوا السبي الذي سبيتموه من اخوتكم لان حمو غضب الرب عليكم.
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,
12ثم قام رجال من رؤوس بني افرايم عزريا بن يهوحانان وبرخيا بن مشلّيموت ويحزقيا بن شلوم وعماسا بن حدلاي على المقبلين من الجيش
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.”
13وقالوا لهم لا تدخلون بالسبي الى هنا لان علينا اثما للرب وانتم عازمون ان تزيدوا على خطايانا وعلى اثمنا لان لنا اثما كثيرا وعلى اسرائيل حمو غضب.
14So the armed men left the captives and the spoil before the princes and all the assembly.
14فترك المتجردون السبي والنهب امام الرؤساء وكل الجماعة.
15The men who have been mentioned by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil 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.
15وقام الرجال المعيّنة اسماؤهم واخذوا المسبيين والبسوا كل عراتهم من الغنيمة وكسوهم وحذوهم واطعموهم واسقوهم ودهّنوهم وحملوا على حمير جميع المعيين منهم وأتوا بهم الى اريحا مدينة النخل الى اخوتهم ثم رجعوا الى السامرة
16At that time king Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria to help him.
16في ذلك الوقت ارسل الملك آحاز الى ملوك اشور لكي يساعدوه.
17For again the Edomites had come and struck Judah, and carried away captives.
17فان الادوميين اتوا ايضا وضربوا يهوذا وسبوا سبيا.
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.
18واقتحم الفلسطينيون مدن الساحل وجنوبي يهوذا واخذوا بيت شمس وايلون وجديروت وسوكو وقراها وتمنة وقراها وجمزو وقراها وسكنوا هناك.
19For Yahweh brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel; for he had dealt wantonly in Judah, and trespassed severely against Yahweh.
19لان الرب ذلّل يهوذا بسبب آحاز ملك اسرائيل لانه اجمح يهوذا وخان الرب خيانة.
20Tilgath Pilneser king of Assyria came to him, and distressed him, but didn’t strengthen him.
20فجاء عليه تلغث فلناسر ملك اشور وضايقه ولم يشدّده.
21For Ahaz took away a portion out of the house of Yahweh, 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.
21لان آحاز اخذ قسما من بيت الرب ومن بيت الملك ومن الرؤساء واعطاه لملك اشور ولكنه لم يساعده.
22In the time of his distress, he trespassed yet more against Yahweh, this same king Ahaz.
22وفي ضيقه زاد خيانة بالرب الملك آحاز هذا
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.
23وذبح لآلهة دمشق الذين ضاربوه وقال لان آلهة ملوك ارام تساعدهم انا اذبح فيساعدونني. واما هم فكانوا سبب سقوط له ولكل اسرائيل.
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 the house of Yahweh; and he made him altars in every corner of Jerusalem.
24وجمع آحاز آنية بيت الله وقطّع آنية بيت الله واغلق ابواب بيت الرب وعمل لنفسه مذابح في كل زاوية في اورشليم.
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.
25وفي كل مدينة فمدينة من يهوذا عمل مرتفعات للايقاد لآلهة اخرى واسخط الرب اله آبائه.
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.
26وبقية اموره وكل طرقه الاولى والاخيرة ها هي مكتوبة في سفر ملوك يهوذا واسرائيل.
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.
27ثم اضطجع آحاز مع آبائه فدفنوه في المدينة في اورشليم لانهم لم يأتوا به الى قبور ملوك اسرائيل. وملك حزقيا ابنه عوضا عنه
