Joash
in
his
reigning
, and forty years he
hath
reigned
in Jerusalem ,

And Joash did

right in the sight
of the
LORD

And Jehoiada took

And it came

And he gathered
together
the priests and the Levites, and said
to them, Go out unto
the cities of Judah, and gather of
all Israel money to repair
the house of your God from
year to
year, and see
that
ye hasten
the matter .
Howbeit
the Levites hastened
it
not.
and he gathereth
the priests and the Levites, and saith
to them, `
Go out to
the cities of Judah, and gather from
all Israel money to strengthen
the house of your God sufficiently
year by
year, and ye ,
ye
do
haste
to
the matter ;'
and
the Levites have
not hasted
.
And the king called
for Jehoiada the chief
, and said
unto
him, Why
hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection,
according
to
the
commandment
of Moses the
servant of the
LORD
, and of the congregation
of Israel, for the tabernacle
of witness
?
And the king calleth
for Jehoiada the head
, and saith
to
him, `Wherefore
hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the tribute
of Moses ,
servant of Jehovah
, and of the assembly
of Israel, for the tent
of the
testimony
?
For the
sons of Athaliah, that
wicked woman
, had
broken up the house of God ;
and also all the dedicated
things of the house of the
LORD
did
they bestow
upon
Baalim.
for sons of Athaliah, the
wicked one
, have
broken up the house of God ,
and also ,
all the holy
things of the house of Jehovah
they have
prepared
for
Baalim. '
And at
the king's
commandment
they made
a
chest, and set
it without
at the gate of the house of the
LORD.
And the king
speaketh,
and
they make
one
chest, and put
it at the gate of the house of Jehovah
without,
And they
made
a
proclamation
through
Judah and Jerusalem ,
to bring in to the
LORD
the collection
that
Moses the
servant of God laid upon
Israel in the wilderness.
and give
an
intimation
in
Judah and in
Jerusalem to bring in to Jehovah
the tribute
of
Moses ,
servant of God ,
`
laid '
on
Israel in the wilderness.
And all the princes
and all the people rejoiced
, and brought
in, and cast into the chest, until
they
had
made
an
end
.
And all the heads,
and all the people rejoice
, and they
bring
in, and cast into the chest, unto
completion
.
Now
it came
to pass, that
at what
time the chest was
brought
unto
the king's
office
by the hand of the Levites, and when
they
saw
that there
was
much
money, the
king's
scribe and
the high
priest's
officer came
and emptied
the chest, and took
it ,
and carried
it to
his
place again.
Thus they did
day by day, and gathered
money in abundance.
And
it cometh
to pass, at the
time one
bringeth
in
the chest for
the inspection
of
the
king
by the hand of the Levites, and at
their
seeing
that the
money `is'
abundant
, that
a
scribe of
the king
hath
come
in,
and
an
officer of
the
head-priest,
and they
empty
the chest, and take
it up
and turn
it back
unto
its
place ;
thus they have
done
day by day, and gather
money in abundance.
And the king and Jehoiada gave
it to
such
as
did
the work of the service of the house of the
LORD
, and hired
masons
and carpenters
to repair
the house of the
LORD
, and also such
as
wrought
iron and brass to mend
the house of the
LORD
.
And the king and Jehoiada give
it unto
the doers
of
the
work of the service of the house of Jehovah
, and they
are
hiring
hewers
and artificers
to renew
the house of Jehovah
, and also --
to
artificers
in
iron and brass to strengthen
the house of Jehovah
.
So
the workmen
wrought
, and the work was
perfected
by them
, and they set
the house of God in
his
state
, and strengthened
it.
And
those
doing
the business
work
, and there
goeth
up
lengthening
to
the work by their
hand
, and they establish
the house of God, by
its
proper
measure,
and strengthen
it.
And when
they
had
finished
it, they brought the
rest
of
the
money
before the king and Jehoiada, whereof
were
made
vessels for the house of the
LORD
, even
vessels to
minister
, and to
offer
withal
, and spoons, and
vessels of gold and silver .
And they offered
burnt offerings in the house of the
LORD
continually all the days of Jehoiada.
And at
their
completing
`
it '
, they have
brought in
before the king and Jehoiada the
rest
of
the
money
, and
they
make
it
vessels for the house of Jehovah
, vessels of
serving
, and of
offering
up
, and spoons, even
vessels of gold and silver ;
and they are
causing
burnt -
offerings to
ascend
in the house of Jehovah
continually ,
all the days of Jehoiada.
But
Jehoiada waxed
old
, and was
full
of days
when
he
died;
an
hundred and thirty years old
was
he
when
he
died.
And
Jehoiada is
aged
and
satisfied
with
days
, and dieth
--
a
son
of a
hundred and thirty years in
his
death,
And they buried
him in the city of David among
the kings, because
he had
done good in Israel, both
toward
God, and toward
his house.
and they bury
him in the city of David ,
with
the kings, for
he hath
done good in Israel, and
with
God, and his house.
Now
after the death of Jehoiada came
the
princes
of Judah, and made
obeisance
to the king .
Then the king hearkened unto them .
And
after the death of Jehoiada come
in
have
heads
of Judah, and bow
themselves
to the king ;
then hath
the king hearkened unto them ,
And they left
the house of the
LORD
God of their fathers, and served
groves
and idols :
and wrath came
upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their trespass
.
and they forsake
the house of Jehovah,
God of their fathers, and serve
the
shrines
and the
idols ,
and there
is
wrath upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their guilt
.
Yet
he sent
prophets
to
them, to bring them again
unto the
LORD;
and they testified
against them :
but
they would
not give
ear .
And
He sendeth
among
them prophets
, to bring them back
unto Jehovah,
and they testify
against them ,
and
they have
not given
ear ;
And the Spirit of God came
upon
Zechariah the
son of Jehoiada the priest, which
stood
above
the people, and said
unto
them, Thus saith
God, Why transgress
ye the commandments
of the
LORD
, that
ye
cannot
prosper? because ye have forsaken the
LORD,
he hath
also
forsaken
you.
and the Spirit of God hath
clothed
Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest, and
he
standeth
over-against
the people, and saith
to
them, `
Thus said
God, Why are
ye transgressing
the commands
of Jehovah
, and
prosper not
? because ye have forsaken Jehovah
--
He doth
forsake
you. '
And they conspired
against him, and stoned
him with stones at
the commandment
of the king in the court of the house of the
LORD.
And they conspire
against him, and stone
him with stones by
the command
of the king ,
in the court of the house of Jehovah,
Thus
Joash the king remembered
not the kindness which
Jehoiada his father had
done
to
him, but
slew
his son .
And
when
he
died
, he said, The
LORD
look
upon
it
, and require it
.
and
Joash the king hath
not remembered
the kindness that
Jehoiada his father did
with
him, and
slayeth
his son, and
in
his
death
he said, `Jehovah
doth
see
, and require. '
And it came
to pass at the end
of the year, that
the host
of Syria
came
up
against him :
and they came
to
Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed
all the princes
of the people from among
the people, and sent
all the
spoil of
them
unto
the king of Damascus .
And it cometh
to pass ,
at the turn
of the year, come
up
hath
the force
of Aram
against him ,
and they come
in
unto
Judah and Jerusalem, and destroy
all the heads
of the people from the people, and all their
spoil they
have
sent
to
the king of Damascus ,
For the
army
of
the
Syrians
came
with a
small
company
of
men, and the
LORD
delivered
a
very
great
host
into their hand, because they had
forsaken the
LORD
God of their fathers .
So
they executed judgment
against
Joash
.
for with few
men have
the
force
of
Aram
come
in
, and Jehovah
hath
given
into their hand a
mighty
force
for
multitude
, because they have
forsaken Jehovah,
God of their fathers ;
and
with
Joash
they have
executed judgments
.
And when
they
were
departed
from him ,
(
for they left him in
great
diseases ,)
his own
servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slew
him on his bed, and he died:
and they buried
him in the city of David, but
they
buried him not
in the sepulchres
of the kings.
And in
their
going
from him --
for they left him with
many
diseases --
his servants themselves
have
conspired against him ,
for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slay
him on his bed, and he dieth;
and they bury
him in the city of David, and
have
not
buried him in the graves
of the kings.
And these are they
that
conspired
against him ;
Zabad the
son of Shimeath an
Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the
son of Shimrith a
Moabitess.
And these `
are '
those
conspiring
against him ,
Zabad son of Shimeath the
Ammonitess, and Jehozabad son of Shimrith the
Moabitess.
Now
concerning
his sons, and the greatness of the burdens
laid
upon him, and the repairing
of the house of God, behold
, they are written in
the story
of the book of the kings .
And Amaziah his son reigned
in his stead.
As
to
his sons, and the greatness of the burden
upon him, and the foundation
of the house of God, lo
, they are written on
the `Inquiry'
of the book of the Kings ;
and reign
doth
Amaziah his son in his stead.
