Chapter 12

1 IN the seventh year of Jehu Joash began to reign; and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Zobah of Beersheba.

2 And Joash did that which was right in the sight of the LORD all his days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him.

3 But the temples of idols were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.

4 And Joash said to the priests, All the money of the dedicated things which is brought into the house of the LORD, even the money which every man gives for the salvation of his soul, the money which every man thinks in his heart to bring into the house of the LORD,

5 Let the priests receive it, every man from him who has decided to give; and let them spend it for the repairing of the house, wherever a breach to be repaired shall be found in it.

6 But it was so, that even in the twenty-third year of King Joash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.

7 Then King Joash called for Jehoiada the priest and the other priests, and said to them, Why have you not repaired the breaches of the house? Now therefore you shall not receive money from those who give it to you, but deliver it for the repair of the house.

8 So the priests agreed not to receive any more money from the people, nor to repair the breaches of the house.

9 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest and bored a hole in the lid of it and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one comes into the house of the LORD; and the priests who kept the door put therein all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD.

10 And when they saw that there was much money in the chest, the king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they counted and bound in bags the money that was found in the house of the LORD.

11 And they gave the money tied in bags to those who did the work, who had the oversight of the house of the LORD; and they gave it to the carpenters and to the builders who worked upon the house of the LORD.

12 And to the masons and the stonecutters, and to buy timber and hewed stones for the repair of the breaches of the house of the LORD, and for all that was spent to repair the house.

13 But there were not made for the house of the LORD bowls of silver, snuffers, braziers for incense, trumpets or any vessels of gold or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of the LORD;

14 But they gave that to the workmen, and repaired with it the house of the LORD.

15 Moreover they did not ask an accounting from the men to whom they delivered the money to give it to the workmen; for they dealt faithfully in paying out the repair money.

16 The money from the trespass offerings and the money from the sin offerings was not brought into the house of the LORD; it was the priests'.

17 Then Hazael king of Aram went up and fought against Gath and took it; and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.

18 And Joash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat and Joram and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the LORD and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael king of Aram; and he went away from Jerusalem.

19 And the rest of the acts of Joash and all that he did, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.

20 And the servants of Joash arose and made a conspiracy and slew Joash in the house of Millo, as he was going down to Silla.

21 It was Jozachar the son of Shimeath and Jehozabar the son of Shomer, his servants, who smote him so that he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David; and Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.

Chapter 12

1 In the seventh7651 year8141 of Jehu3058 Jehoash3060 began to reign;4427 and forty705 years8141 reigned4427 he in Jerusalem.3389 And his mother's517 name8034 was Zibiah6645 of Beersheba.884

2 And Jehoash3060 did6213 that which was right3477 in the sight5869 of the LORD3068 all3605 his days3117 wherein834 Jehoiada3111 the priest3548 instructed3384 him.

3 But the high1116 places were not taken5493 away:5493 the people5971 still5750 sacrificed2076 and burnt6999 incense6999 in the high1116 places.

4 And Jehoash3060 said559 to the priests,3548 All3605 the money3701 of the dedicated6944 things that is brought935 into the house1004 of the LORD,3068 even the money3701 of every3605 one that passes5674 the account, the money3701 that every man5315 is set6187 at, and all3605 the money3701 that comes5927 into5921 any man's376 heart3820 to bring935 into the house1004 of the LORD,3068

5 Let the priests3548 take3947 it to them, every man376 of his acquaintance:4378 and let them repair2388 the breaches919 of the house,1004 wherever834 8033 any376 breach919 shall be found.4672

6 But it was so, that in the three7969 and twentieth6242 year8141 of king4428 Jehoash3060 the priests3548 had not repaired2388 the breaches919 of the house.1004

7 Then king4428 Jehoash3060 called7121 for Jehoiada3111 the priest,3548 and the other priests,3548 and said559 to them, Why4069 repair2388 you not the breaches919 of the house?1004 now6258 therefore receive3947 no408 more money3701 of your acquaintance,4378 but deliver5414 it for the breaches919 of the house.1004

8 And the priests3548 consented225 to receive3947 no1115 more money3701 of the people,5971 neither1115 to repair2388 the breaches919 of the house.1004

9 But Jehoiada3111 the priest3548 took3947 a chest,727 and bored5344 a hole2356 in the lid1817 of it, and set5414 it beside681 the altar,4196 on the right3225 side3225 as one376 comes935 into the house1004 of the LORD:3068 and the priests3548 that kept8104 the door5592 put5414 therein8033 all3605 the money3701 that was brought935 into the house1004 of the LORD.3068

10 And it was so, when they saw7200 that there was much7225 money3701 in the chest,727 that the king's4428 scribe5608 and the high1419 priest3548 came5927 up, and they put6696 up in bags,6696 and told4487 the money3701 that was found4672 in the house1004 of the LORD.3068

11 And they gave5414 the money,3701 being told,8505 into5921 the hands3027 of them that did6213 the work,4399 that had the oversight6485 of the house1004 of the LORD:3068 and they laid3318 it out to the carpenters6086 and builders,1129 that worked6213 on the house1004 of the LORD,3068

12 And to masons,1443 and hewers2672 of stone,68 and to buy7069 timber6086 and hewed4274 stone68 to repair2388 the breaches919 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and for all3605 that was laid3318 out for the house1004 to repair2393 it.

13 However, there were not made6213 for the house1004 of the LORD3068 bowls5592 of silver,3701 snuffers,4212 basins,4219 trumpets,2689 any vessels3627 of gold,2091 or vessels3627 of silver,3701 of the money3701 that was brought935 into the house1004 of the LORD:3068

14 But they gave5414 that to the workmen,6213 4399 and repaired2388 therewith the house1004 of the LORD.3068

15 Moreover they reckoned2803 not with the men,582 into5921 whose834 hand3027 they delivered5414 the money3701 to be bestowed5414 on workmen:6213 4399 for they dealt6213 faithfully.530

16 The trespass817 money3701 and sin money3701 was not brought935 into the house1004 of the LORD:3068 it was the priests'.3548

17 Then227 Hazael2371 king4428 of Syria758 went5927 up, and fought3898 against5921 Gath,1661 and took3920 it: and Hazael2371 set7760 his face6440 to go5927 up to Jerusalem.3389

18 And Jehoash3060 king4428 of Judah3063 took3947 all3605 the hallowed6944 things that Jehoshaphat,3092 and Jehoram,3088 and Ahaziah,274 his fathers,1 kings4428 of Judah,3063 had dedicated,6942 and his own hallowed6944 things, and all3605 the gold2091 that was found4672 in the treasures214 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and in the king's4428 house,1004 and sent7971 it to Hazael2371 king4428 of Syria:758 and he went5927 away from Jerusalem.3389

19 And the rest3499 of the acts1697 of Joash,3101 and all3605 that he did,6213 are they not written3789 in the book5612 of the chronicles1697 3117 of the kings4428 of Judah?3063

20 And his servants5650 arose,6965 and made a conspiracy,7195 and slew5221 Joash3101 in the house1004 of Millo,4407 which goes3381 down3381 to Silla.5538

21 For Jozachar3108 the son1121 of Shimeath,8100 and Jehozabad3075 the son1121 of Shomer,7763 his servants,5650 smote5221 him, and he died;4191 and they buried6912 him with his fathers1 in the city5892 of David:1732 and Amaziah558 his son1121 reigned4427 in his stead.8478

Chapter 12

1 IN the seventh year of Jehu Joash began to reign; and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Zobah of Beersheba.

1 In the seventh7651 year8141 of Jehu3058 Jehoash3060 began to reign;4427 and forty705 years8141 reigned4427 he in Jerusalem.3389 And his mother's517 name8034 was Zibiah6645 of Beersheba.884

2 And Joash did that which was right in the sight of the LORD all his days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him.

2 And Jehoash3060 did6213 that which was right3477 in the sight5869 of the LORD3068 all3605 his days3117 wherein834 Jehoiada3111 the priest3548 instructed3384 him.

3 But the temples of idols were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.

3 But the high1116 places were not taken5493 away:5493 the people5971 still5750 sacrificed2076 and burnt6999 incense6999 in the high1116 places.

4 And Joash said to the priests, All the money of the dedicated things which is brought into the house of the LORD, even the money which every man gives for the salvation of his soul, the money which every man thinks in his heart to bring into the house of the LORD,

4 And Jehoash3060 said559 to the priests,3548 All3605 the money3701 of the dedicated6944 things that is brought935 into the house1004 of the LORD,3068 even the money3701 of every3605 one that passes5674 the account, the money3701 that every man5315 is set6187 at, and all3605 the money3701 that comes5927 into5921 any man's376 heart3820 to bring935 into the house1004 of the LORD,3068

5 Let the priests receive it, every man from him who has decided to give; and let them spend it for the repairing of the house, wherever a breach to be repaired shall be found in it.

5 Let the priests3548 take3947 it to them, every man376 of his acquaintance:4378 and let them repair2388 the breaches919 of the house,1004 wherever834 8033 any376 breach919 shall be found.4672

6 But it was so, that even in the twenty-third year of King Joash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.

6 But it was so, that in the three7969 and twentieth6242 year8141 of king4428 Jehoash3060 the priests3548 had not repaired2388 the breaches919 of the house.1004

7 Then King Joash called for Jehoiada the priest and the other priests, and said to them, Why have you not repaired the breaches of the house? Now therefore you shall not receive money from those who give it to you, but deliver it for the repair of the house.

7 Then king4428 Jehoash3060 called7121 for Jehoiada3111 the priest,3548 and the other priests,3548 and said559 to them, Why4069 repair2388 you not the breaches919 of the house?1004 now6258 therefore receive3947 no408 more money3701 of your acquaintance,4378 but deliver5414 it for the breaches919 of the house.1004

8 So the priests agreed not to receive any more money from the people, nor to repair the breaches of the house.

8 And the priests3548 consented225 to receive3947 no1115 more money3701 of the people,5971 neither1115 to repair2388 the breaches919 of the house.1004

9 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest and bored a hole in the lid of it and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one comes into the house of the LORD; and the priests who kept the door put therein all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD.

9 But Jehoiada3111 the priest3548 took3947 a chest,727 and bored5344 a hole2356 in the lid1817 of it, and set5414 it beside681 the altar,4196 on the right3225 side3225 as one376 comes935 into the house1004 of the LORD:3068 and the priests3548 that kept8104 the door5592 put5414 therein8033 all3605 the money3701 that was brought935 into the house1004 of the LORD.3068

10 And when they saw that there was much money in the chest, the king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they counted and bound in bags the money that was found in the house of the LORD.

10 And it was so, when they saw7200 that there was much7225 money3701 in the chest,727 that the king's4428 scribe5608 and the high1419 priest3548 came5927 up, and they put6696 up in bags,6696 and told4487 the money3701 that was found4672 in the house1004 of the LORD.3068

11 And they gave the money tied in bags to those who did the work, who had the oversight of the house of the LORD; and they gave it to the carpenters and to the builders who worked upon the house of the LORD.

11 And they gave5414 the money,3701 being told,8505 into5921 the hands3027 of them that did6213 the work,4399 that had the oversight6485 of the house1004 of the LORD:3068 and they laid3318 it out to the carpenters6086 and builders,1129 that worked6213 on the house1004 of the LORD,3068

12 And to the masons and the stonecutters, and to buy timber and hewed stones for the repair of the breaches of the house of the LORD, and for all that was spent to repair the house.

12 And to masons,1443 and hewers2672 of stone,68 and to buy7069 timber6086 and hewed4274 stone68 to repair2388 the breaches919 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and for all3605 that was laid3318 out for the house1004 to repair2393 it.

13 But there were not made for the house of the LORD bowls of silver, snuffers, braziers for incense, trumpets or any vessels of gold or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of the LORD;

13 However, there were not made6213 for the house1004 of the LORD3068 bowls5592 of silver,3701 snuffers,4212 basins,4219 trumpets,2689 any vessels3627 of gold,2091 or vessels3627 of silver,3701 of the money3701 that was brought935 into the house1004 of the LORD:3068

14 But they gave that to the workmen, and repaired with it the house of the LORD.

14 But they gave5414 that to the workmen,6213 4399 and repaired2388 therewith the house1004 of the LORD.3068

15 Moreover they did not ask an accounting from the men to whom they delivered the money to give it to the workmen; for they dealt faithfully in paying out the repair money.

15 Moreover they reckoned2803 not with the men,582 into5921 whose834 hand3027 they delivered5414 the money3701 to be bestowed5414 on workmen:6213 4399 for they dealt6213 faithfully.530

16 The money from the trespass offerings and the money from the sin offerings was not brought into the house of the LORD; it was the priests'.

16 The trespass817 money3701 and sin money3701 was not brought935 into the house1004 of the LORD:3068 it was the priests'.3548

17 Then Hazael king of Aram went up and fought against Gath and took it; and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.

17 Then227 Hazael2371 king4428 of Syria758 went5927 up, and fought3898 against5921 Gath,1661 and took3920 it: and Hazael2371 set7760 his face6440 to go5927 up to Jerusalem.3389

18 And Joash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat and Joram and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the LORD and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael king of Aram; and he went away from Jerusalem.

18 And Jehoash3060 king4428 of Judah3063 took3947 all3605 the hallowed6944 things that Jehoshaphat,3092 and Jehoram,3088 and Ahaziah,274 his fathers,1 kings4428 of Judah,3063 had dedicated,6942 and his own hallowed6944 things, and all3605 the gold2091 that was found4672 in the treasures214 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and in the king's4428 house,1004 and sent7971 it to Hazael2371 king4428 of Syria:758 and he went5927 away from Jerusalem.3389

19 And the rest of the acts of Joash and all that he did, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.

19 And the rest3499 of the acts1697 of Joash,3101 and all3605 that he did,6213 are they not written3789 in the book5612 of the chronicles1697 3117 of the kings4428 of Judah?3063

20 And the servants of Joash arose and made a conspiracy and slew Joash in the house of Millo, as he was going down to Silla.

20 And his servants5650 arose,6965 and made a conspiracy,7195 and slew5221 Joash3101 in the house1004 of Millo,4407 which goes3381 down3381 to Silla.5538

21 It was Jozachar the son of Shimeath and Jehozabar the son of Shomer, his servants, who smote him so that he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David; and Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.

21 For Jozachar3108 the son1121 of Shimeath,8100 and Jehozabad3075 the son1121 of Shomer,7763 his servants,5650 smote5221 him, and he died;4191 and they buried6912 him with his fathers1 in the city5892 of David:1732 and Amaziah558 his son1121 reigned4427 in his stead.8478
