the melechim of Yisrael.
14 Now Elisha had fallen sick and died of his sickness.
And Yoash the melech of Yisrael came down to him, and
wept over his face, and said, O my abba, my abba, the
Mirkavah of Yisrael, and their horsemen.
15 And Elisha said to him, Take bow and arrows. And he
took to him bow and arrows.
16 And he said to the melech of Yisrael, Put your hand
upon the bow. And he put his hand upon it: and Elisha put
his hands upon the melech's hands.
17 And he said, Open the window eastward. And he
opened it. Then Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he
said, The arrow of vuvh's deliverance, and the arrow of
deliverance from Aram: for you shall kill the Arameans in
Aphek, until you have consumed them.
18 And he said, Take the arrows. And he took them. And
he said to the melech of Yisrael, strike the ground. And
he struck it three times, and stopped.
19 And the man of Elohim was angry with him, and said,
You should have struck it five, or six times; then you
would have smitten Aram until you had consumed it:
whereas now you shall smite Aram only three times.
20 And Elisha died, and they buried him. And the bands
of the Moavites invaded the land at the spring of the year.
21 And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that,
see, they saw a band of raiding men; and they cast the
man into the tomb of Elisha: and when the man was let
down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and
stood up on his feet.
22 But Haza-El melech of Aram oppressed Yisrael all the
days of Yahuachaz.
23 And vuvh was full of unmerited favor to them, and had
compassion on them, and had respect to them, because of
His brit with Avraham, Yitzchak, and Yaakov, and would
not destroy them, neither cast them from His presence
yet.
24 So Haza-El melech of Aram died; and Ben-Hadad his
son reigned in his place.
25 And Yoash the son of Yahuachaz took again out of the
hand of Ben-Hadad the son of Haza-El the cities, which
he had taken out of the hand of Yahuachaz his abba by
war. Three times did Yoash beat him, and recovered the
cities of Yisrael.
14
In the second year of Yoash son of Yahuachaz
melech of Yisrael reigned Amatsyah the son of Yoash
melech of Yahudah.
2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign,
and reigned twenty-nine years in Yahrushalayim. And his
eema's name was Yahuaddan of Yahrushalayim.
3 And he did that which was right in the sight of vuvh, yet
not like Dawid his abba: he did according to all things as
Yoash his abba did.
4 However the temples of idols were not taken away: as
yet the people did sacrifice and burned incense in the
temples of idols.
5 And it came to pass, as soon as the malchut was
confirmed in his hand, that he killed his avadim that had
killed the melech his abba.
6 But the children of the murderers he killed not:
according to that which is written in the scroll of the
Torah of Moshe, in which vuvh commanded, saying, The
ahvot shall not be put to death for the children, nor the
MELECHIM BET - SECOND KINGS
- 260 -
children be put to death for the ahvot; but every man shall
be put to death for his own sin.
7 He killed of Edom in the Valley of Salt ten thousand,
and took Selah by war, and called the name of it Yoktheel
to this day.
8 Then Amatsyah sent messengers to Yoash, the son of
Yahuachaz son of Yahu, melech of Yisrael, saying,
Come, let us look one another in the face.
9 And Yoash the melech of Yisrael sent to Amatsyah
melech of Yahudah, saying, The thistle that was in
Levanon sent to the cedar that was in Levanon, saying,
Give your daughter to my son as a wife: and there passed
by a wild beast that was in Levanon, and trampled down
the thistle.
10 You have indeed killed Edom, and your lev has lifted
you up: be esteemed by this, and stay at home: for why
should you meddle to your hurt, that you should fall - you
and Yahudah with you?
11 But Amatsyah would not listen. Therefore Yoash
melech of Yisrael went up; and he and Amatsyah melech
of Yahudah looked one another in the face at Beth-
Shemesh, which belongs to Yahudah.
12 And Yahudah was smitten before Yisrael; and they
fled every man to their tents.
13 And Yoash melech of Yisrael took Amatsyah melech
of Yahudah, the son of Yoash the son of Achazyahu, at
Beth-Shemesh, and came to Yahrushalayim, and broke
down the wall of Yahrushalayim from the Gate of
Efrayim to the Corner Gate, four hundred cubits.
14 And he took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels
that were found in the Bayit of vuvh, and in the treasures
of the melech's bayit, and he took hostages, and returned
to Shomron.
15 Now the rest of the acts of Yoash which he did, and
his might, and how he fought with Amatsyah melech of
Yahudah, are they not written in the Scroll of the Divre
HaYamim about the melechim of Yisrael?
16 And Yoash slept with his ahvot, and was buried in
Shomron with the melechim of Yisrael; and Yahravam
his son reigned in his place.
17 And Amatsyah the son of Yoash melech of Yahudah
lived after the death of Yoash son of Yahuachaz melech
of Yisrael fifteen years.
18 And the rest of the acts of Amatsyah, are they not
written in the Scroll of the Divre HaYamim about the
melechim of Yahudah?
19 Now they made a conspiracy against him in
Yahrushalayim: and he fled to Lachish; but they sent after
him to Lachish, and killed him there.
20 And they brought him on horses: and he was buried at
Yahrushalayim with his ahvot in the city of Dawid.
21 And all the people of Yahudah took Azaryah, who was
sixteen years old, and made him melech instead of his
abba Amatsyah.
22 He built Eilat, and restored it to Yahudah, after the
melech slept with his ahvot.
23 In the fifteenth year of Amatsyah the son of Yoash
melech of Yahudah Yahravam the son of Yoash melech
of Yisrael began to reign in Shomron, and reigned fortyone
years.
24 And he did that which was evil in the sight of vuvh: he
departed not from all the sins of Yahravam the son of
Nevat, who made Yisrael to sin.
