was
twenty years old
when

began
to
reign

walketh
in the ways of the kings of Israel, and also ,
molten images hath
made
for Baalim ,

walked
in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made

with
fire according
to
the abominations of the nations
that
Jehovah
dispossessed
from
the presence
of
the sons
of Israel ,
Moreover
he
burnt
incense

in

to
them, `Lo
, in
the fury
of
Jehovah
God of your fathers against
Judah, He hath given
them into your hand, and ye slay
among
them in rage --
unto the
heavens
it
hath
come;
But
a prophet of the
LORD
was
there
, whose
name
was
Oded:
and he went
out before the host that came
to Samaria, and said
unto
them, Behold
, because
the LORD
God of your fathers was
wroth
with
Judah, he hath delivered
them into your hand, and ye have
slain
them in a
rage that
reacheth
up
unto heaven.
and now ,
sons
of Judah and Jerusalem ye
are
saying
to
subdue
for men-servants
and for
maid-servants
to
you ;
but are there not with you causes
of
guilt
before
Jehovah
your God?
And now ye
purpose
to
keep
under
the
children
of Judah and Jerusalem for bondmen
and bondwomen
unto
you :
but are there not with you ,
even
with
you,
sins
against
the
LORD
your God?
and
now ,
hear me, and send
back
the captives whom
ye have taken captive of your brethren ,
for the heat
of the anger
of
Jehovah
`
is '
upon you. '
Now hear me therefore
, and deliver
the captives again,

ye have taken captive of your brethren :

wrath
of the LORD
is upon you.

son of Shallum, and Amasa the
son of Hadlai, stood
up against them
that
came
from the war
,
and say
to
them, `
Ye do
not bring in the captives hither ,
for ,
to
guilt
against Jehovah
on
us
, ye are
saying
to add unto
our sin
and unto
our guilt?
for abundant
`
is '
the
guilt
we
have
, and the
fierceness
of
anger
on
Israel. '
And said
unto
them, Ye shall
not bring in the captives hither :
for whereas
we
have
offended
against the
LORD
already
, ye intend
to add more
to
our sins
and to
our trespass:
for our
trespass
is great
, and there
is
fierce
wrath
against
Israel.

been
expressed by name rise
and take
hold
on
the captives, and all
their
naked
ones
they
have
clothed
from
the spoil ,
yea
, they
clothe
them, and shoe
them, and cause
them to eat and drink, and anoint
them, and lead
them on
asses, even
every
feeble
one,
and bring
them in
to Jericho, the city of palms
, near
their brethren ,
and
turn
back
to Samaria.

up,
and took
the captives, and with
the spoil clothed

them, and shod
them, and gave
them to eat and to
drink, and anointed
them, and carried
all
the
feeble
of
them upon
asses, and brought
them to Jericho, the city of palm
trees
, to
their brethren :
then

its
villages, and

villages ,
and dwell
there ,

, and Timnah with
the
villages thereof
, Gimzo also
and the
villages thereof:

for he made free

Judah, even
to
commit

taken
a portion `
out '
of the house of Jehovah
, and `
out '
of the house of the king, and of the princes, and giveth
to
the king of Asshur,
yet
it
is
no
help
to
him.
For
Ahaz took
away
a portion out of the house of the
LORD
, and out of the house of the king, and of the princes, and gave
it
unto

helped
him not
.
And in the time of his distress --
he addeth
to
trespass against Jehovah,
(
this king Ahaz ),
And in the time of his distress did
he trespass yet
more
against the
LORD:
this is
that
king Ahaz .
and
he sacrificeth
to
the gods of Damascus --
those
smiting
him
, and saith
, `
Because the gods of the kings of Aram
are
helping
them, to
them
I sacrifice, and
they help me ,'
and
they have
been
to
him
to
cause
him to
stumble
, and to
all Israel.
For
he sacrificed
unto
the gods of Damascus, which
smote
him:
and he
said
, Because the gods of the kings of Syria
help
them, therefore
will
I sacrifice to
them
, that
they may
help me .
But
they were
the
ruin
of
him, and of
all Israel.

Jerusalem.

first and the
last, lo
, they are written on
the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

and of
all his ways, first and last, behold
