KJVAnd he made^H6213^(H8799) in Jerusalem^H3389 engines^H2810, invented^H4284 by cunning men^H2803^(H8802), to be on the towers^H4026 and upon the bulwarks^H6438, to shoot^H3384^(H8800) arrows^H2671 and great^H1419 stones^H68 withal. And his name^H8034 spread^H3318^(H8799) far abroad^H7350; for he was marvellously^H6381^(H8689) helped^H5826^(H8736), till^H3588 he was strong^H2388^(H8804).

¹⁶ But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up, so that he did corruptly and he trespassed against Yahweh his God, for he went into Yahweh’s temple to burn incense on the altar of incense.

KJVBut when he was strong^H2393, his heart^H3820 was lifted up^H1361^(H8804) to his destruction^H7843^(H8687): for he transgressed^H4603^(H8799) against the LORD^H3068 his God^H430, and went^H935^(H8799) into the temple^H1964 of the LORD^H3068 to burn incense^H6999^(H8687) upon the altar^H4196 of incense^H7004.

¹⁷ Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him eighty priests of Yahweh, who were valiant men.

¹⁸ They resisted Uzziah the king, and said to him, “It isn’t for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to Yahweh, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary, for you have trespassed. It will not be for your honor from Yahweh God.”

KJVAnd they withstood^H5975^(H8799) Uzziah^H5818 the king^H4428, and said^H559^(H8799) unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah^H5818, to burn incense^H6999^(H8687) unto the LORD^H3068, but to the priests^H3548 the sons^H1121 of Aaron^H175, that are consecrated^H6942^(H8794) to burn incense^H6999^(H8687): go out^H3318^(H8798) of the sanctuary^H4720; for thou hast trespassed^H4603^(H8804); neither shall it be for thine honour^H3519 from the LORD^H3068 God^H430.

¹⁹ Then Uzziah was angry. He had a censer in his hand to burn incense, and while he was angry with the priests, the leprosy broke out on his forehead before the priests in Yahweh’s house, beside the altar of incense.

KJVThen Uzziah^H5818 was wroth^H2196^(H8799), and had a censer^H4730 in his hand^H3027 to burn incense^H6999^(H8687): and while he was wroth^H2196^(H8800) with the priests^H3548, the leprosy^H6883 even rose up^H2224^(H8804) in his forehead^H4696 before^H6440 the priests^H3548 in the house^H1004 of the LORD^H3068, from beside the incense^H7004 altar^H4196.

²⁰ Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and behold, he was leprous in his forehead; and they thrust him out quickly from there. Indeed, he himself also hurried to go out, because Yahweh had struck him.

KJVAnd Azariah^H5838 the chief^H7218 priest^H3548, and all the priests^H3548, looked^H6437^(H8799) upon him, and, behold, he was leprous^H6879^(H8794) in his forehead^H4696, and they thrust him out^H926^(H8686) from thence; yea, himself hasted^H1765^(H8738) also to go out^H3318^(H8800), because the LORD^H3068 had smitten^H5060^(H8765) him.

²¹ Uzziah the king was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house, being a leper; for he was cut off from Yahweh’s house. Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judging the people of the land.

KJVAnd Uzziah^H5818 the king^H4428 was a leper^H6879^(H8794) unto the day^H3117 of his death^H4194, and dwelt in^H3427^(H8799) a several^H2669^(H8675)^H2669 house^H1004, being a leper^H6879^(H8794); for he was cut off^H1504^(H8738) from the house^H1004 of the LORD^H3068: and Jotham^H3147 his son^H1121 was over the king's^H4428 house^H1004, judging^H8199^(H8802) the people^H5971 of the land^H776.

²² Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, wrote.

KJVNow the rest^H3499 of the acts^H1697 of Uzziah^H5818, first^H7223 and last^H314, did Isaiah^H3470 the prophet^H5030, the son^H1121 of Amoz^H531, write^H3789^(H8804).

²³ So Uzziah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the field of burial which belonged to the kings, for they said, “He is a leper.” Jotham his son reigned in his place.

KJVSo Uzziah^H5818 slept^H7901^(H8799) with his fathers^H1, and they buried^H6912^(H8799) him with his fathers^H1 in the field^H7704 of the burial^H6900 which belonged to the kings^H4428; for they said^H559^(H8804), He is a leper^H6879^(H8794): and Jotham^H3147 his son^H1121 reigned^H4427^(H8799) in his stead.

WEB·2 Chronicles 25

¹Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.

KJVAmaziah^H558 was twenty^H6242 and five^H2568 years^H8141 old^H1121 when he began to reign^H4427^(H8804), and he reigned^H4427^(H8804) twenty^H6242 and nine^H8672 years^H8141 in Jerusalem^H3389. And his mother's^H517 name^H8034 was Jehoaddan^H3086 of Jerusalem^H3389.

² He did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes, but not with a perfect heart.

KJVAnd he did^H6213^(H8799) that which was right^H3477 in the sight^H5869 of the LORD^H3068, but not with a perfect^H8003 heart^H3824.

³ Now when the kingdom was established to him, he killed his servants who had killed his father the king.

KJVNow it came to pass, when the kingdom^H4467 was established^H2388^(H8804) to him, that he slew^H2026^(H8799) his servants^H5650 that had killed^H5221^(H8688) the king^H4428 his father^H1.

⁴ But he didn’t put their children to death, but did according to that which is written in the law in the book of Moses, as Yahweh commanded, saying, “The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin.”

KJVBut he slew^H4191^(H8689) not their children^H1121, but did as it is written^H3789^(H8803) in the law^H8451 in the book^H5612 of Moses^H4872, where the LORD^H3068 commanded^H6680^(H8765), saying^H559^(H8800), The fathers^H1 shall not die^H4191^(H8799) for the children^H1121, neither shall the children^H1121 die^H4191^(H8799) for the fathers^H1, but every man^H376 shall die^H4191^(H8799) for his own sin^H2399.

⁵ Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together and ordered them according to their fathers’ houses, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, even all Judah and Benjamin. He counted them from twenty years old and upward, and found that there were three hundred thousand chosen men, able to go out to war, who could handle spear and shield.

KJVMoreover Amaziah^H558 gathered^H6908 Judah^H3063 together^H6908^(H8799), and made^H5975^(H8686) them captains^H8269 over thousands^H505, and captains^H8269 over hundreds^H3967, according to the houses^H1004 of their fathers^H1, throughout all Judah^H3063 and Benjamin^H1144: and he numbered^H6485^(H8799) them from twenty^H6242 years^H8141 old^H1121 and above^H4605, and found^H4672^(H8799) them three^H7969 hundred^H3967 thousand^H505 choice^H977^(H8803) men, able to go forth^H3318^(H8802) to war^H6635, that could handle^H270^(H8802) spear^H7420 and shield^H6793.

⁶ He also hired one hundred thousand mighty men of valor out of Israel for one hundred talents of silver.

KJVHe hired^H7936^(H8799) also an hundred^H3967 thousand^H505 mighty^H1368 men of valour^H2428 out of Israel^H3478 for an hundred^H3967 talents^H3603 of silver^H3701.

⁷ A man of God came to him, saying, “O king, don’t let the army of Israel go with you, for Yahweh is not with Israel, with all the children of Ephraim.

KJVBut there came^H935^(H8804) a man^H376 of God^H430 to him, saying^H559^(H8800), O king^H4428, let not the army^H6635 of Israel^H3478 go^H935^(H8799) with thee; for the LORD^H3068 is not with Israel^H3478, to wit, with all the children^H1121 of Ephraim^H669.

⁸ But if you will go, take action, and be strong for the battle. God will overthrow you before the enemy; for God has power to help, and to overthrow.”

KJVBut if thou wilt go^H935^(H8798), do^H6213^(H8798) it, be strong^H2388^(H8798) for the battle^H4421: God^H430 shall make thee fall^H3782^(H8686) before^H6440 the enemy^H341^(H8802): for God^H430 hath^H3426 power^H3581 to help^H5826^(H8800), and to cast down^H3782^(H8687).

⁹ Amaziah said to the man of God, “But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel?” The man of God answered, “Yahweh is able to give you much more than this.”

KJVAnd Amaziah^H558 said^H559^(H8799) to the man^H376 of God^H430, But what shall we do^H6213^(H8800) for the hundred^H3967 talents^H3603 which I have given^H5414^(H8804) to the army^H1416 of Israel^H3478? And the man^H376 of God^H430 answered^H559^(H8799), The LORD^H3068 is^H3426 able to give^H5414^(H8800) thee much more^H7235^(H8687) than this.

¹⁰ Then Amaziah separated them, the army that had come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again. Therefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in fierce anger.

KJVThen Amaziah^H558 separated^H914^(H8686) them, to wit, the army^H1416 that was come^H935^(H8804) to him out of Ephraim^H669, to go^H3212 home^H4725 again^H3212^(H8800): wherefore their anger^H639 was greatly^H3966 kindled^H2734^(H8799) against Judah^H3063, and they returned^H7725^(H8799) home^H4725 in great^H2750 anger^H639.

¹¹ Amaziah took courage, and led his people out and went to the Valley of Salt, and struck ten thousand of the children of Seir.

KJVAnd Amaziah^H558 strengthened^H2388^(H8694) himself, and led forth^H5090^(H8799) his people^H5971, and went^H3212^(H8799) to the valley^H1516 of salt^H4417, and smote^H5221^(H8686) of the children^H1121 of Seir^H8165 ten^H6235 thousand^H505.

¹² The children of Judah carried away ten thousand alive, and brought them to the top of the rock, and threw them down from the top of the rock, so that they all were broken in pieces.

KJVAnd other ten^H6235 thousand^H505 left alive^H2416 did the children^H1121 of Judah^H3063 carry away captive^H7617^(H8804), and brought^H935^(H8686) them unto the top^H7218 of the rock^H5553, and cast them down^H7993^(H8686) from the top^H7218 of the rock^H5553, that they all were broken in pieces^H1234^(H8738).

¹³ But the men of the army whom Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell on the cities of Judah from Samaria even to Beth Horon, and struck of them three thousand, and took much plunder.

KJVBut the soldiers^H1121 of the army^H1416 which Amaziah^H558 sent back^H7725^(H8689), that they should not go^H3212^(H8800) with him to battle^H4421, fell^H6584^(H8799) upon the cities^H5892 of Judah^H3063, from Samaria^H8111 even unto Bethhoron^H1032, and smote^H5221^(H8686) three^H7969 thousand^H505 of them, and took^H962^(H8799) much^H7227 spoil^H961.

¹⁴ Now after Amaziah had come from the slaughter of the Edomites, he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them and burned incense to them.

KJVNow it came to pass, after^H310 that Amaziah^H558 was come^H935^(H8800) from the slaughter^H5221^(H8687) of the Edomites^H130, that he brought^H935^(H8686) the gods^H430 of the children^H1121 of Seir^H8165, and set them up^H5975^(H8686) to be his gods^H430, and bowed down^H7812^(H8691) himself before^H6440 them, and burned incense^H6999^(H8762) unto them.

¹⁵ Therefore Yahweh’s anger burned against Amaziah, and he sent to him a prophet who said to him, “Why have you sought after the gods of the people, which have not delivered their own people out of your hand?”

KJVWherefore the anger^H639 of the LORD^H3068 was kindled^H2734^(H8799) against Amaziah^H558, and he sent^H7971^(H8799) unto him a prophet^H5030, which said^H559^(H8799) unto him, Why hast thou sought^H1875^(H8804) after the gods^H430 of the people^H5971, which could not deliver^H5337^(H8689) their own people^H5971 out of thine hand^H3027?

¹⁶ As he talked with him, the king said to him, “Have we made you one of the king’s counselors? Stop! Why should you be struck down?” Then the prophet stopped, and said, “I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this and have not listened to my counsel.”

KJVAnd it came to pass, as he talked^H1696^(H8763) with him, that the king said^H559^(H8799) unto him, Art thou made^H5414^(H8804) of the king's^H4428 counsel^H3289^(H8802)? forbear^H2308^(H8798); why shouldest thou be smitten^H5221^(H8686)? Then the prophet^H5030 forbare^H2308^(H8799), and said^H559^(H8799), I know^H3045^(H8804) that God^H430 hath determined^H3289^(H8804) to destroy^H7843^(H8687) thee, because thou hast done^H6213^(H8804) this, and hast not hearkened^H8085^(H8804) unto my counsel^H6098.

¹⁷ Then Amaziah king of Judah consulted his advisers, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, “Come! Let’s look one another in the face.”

KJVThen Amaziah^H558 king^H4428 of Judah^H3063 took advice^H3289^(H8735), and sent^H7971^(H8799) to Joash^H3101, the son^H1121 of Jehoahaz^H3059, the son^H1121 of Jehu^H3058, king^H4428 of Israel^H3478, saying^H559^(H8800), Come^H3212^(H8798), let us see one another^H7200^(H8691) in the face^H6440.

¹⁸ Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son as his wife. Then a wild animal that was in Lebanon passed by and trampled down the thistle.
