WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:07.040 Chapter 14 In the second year of Joash, son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, 00:07.600 --> 00:10.580 reigned Amaziah, the son of Joash, king of Judah. 00:11.780 --> 00:16.020 He was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and reigned twenty and 00:16.020 --> 00:17.020 nine years in Jerusalem. 00:18.440 --> 00:20.940 And his mother's name was Jehoadim of Jerusalem. 00:22.060 --> 00:24.700 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord. 00:25.400 --> 00:30.020 Yet not like David his father, he did according to all things as Joash 00:30.020 --> 00:30.840 his father did. 00:31.700 --> 00:36.780 Howbeit the high places were not taken away, as yet the people did sacrifice and 00:36.780 --> 00:38.540 burnt incense on the high places. 00:39.200 --> 00:42.660 And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom was confirmed in his hand, 00:43.020 --> 00:46.020 that he slew his servants which had slain the king his father. 00:46.560 --> 00:50.880 But the children of the murderers he slew not, according unto that which is written 00:50.880 --> 00:54.720 in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the Lord commanded, saying, 00:54.720 --> 00:59.960 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children be put to 00:59.960 --> 01:00.880 death for the fathers. 01:01.880 --> 01:05.140 But every man shall be put to death for his own sin. 01:06.260 --> 01:11.020 He slew of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and took Sila by war, 01:11.600 --> 01:14.400 and called the name of it Jokthiel unto this day. 01:15.420 --> 01:20.280 Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, 01:20.560 --> 01:25.360 king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one another in the face. 01:25.780 --> 01:29.840 And Jehoash the king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, 01:53.320 --> 01:58.040 That thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee? 01:58.380 --> 02:00.280 But Amaziah would not hear. 02:00.840 --> 02:05.960 Therefore Jehoash king of Israel went up, and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked 02:05.960 --> 02:10.120 one another in the face at Beth Shemesh, which belongeth to Judah. 02:10.720 --> 02:15.820 And Judah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fled every man to their 02:15.820 --> 02:16.160 tents. 02:16.880 --> 02:22.060 And Jehoash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Jehoash, 02:22.160 --> 02:27.740 the son of Ahaziah, at Beth Shemesh, and came to Jerusalem, and broke down the 02:27.740 --> 02:32.720 wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the corner gate, four hundred cubits. 02:33.560 --> 02:38.060 And he took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in the 02:38.060 --> 02:42.100 house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house, and hostages, 02:42.520 --> 02:43.900 and returned to Samaria. 02:45.120 --> 02:49.700 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his might, and how he fought 02:49.700 --> 02:54.060 with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of 02:54.060 --> 02:54.940 the kings of Israel? 02:55.800 --> 03:00.220 And Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings 03:00.220 --> 03:00.740 of Israel. 03:01.540 --> 03:04.340 And Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead. 03:05.460 --> 03:10.220 And Amaziah the son of Jehoash king of Judah, lived after the death of Jehoash 03:10.220 --> 03:13.380 son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years. 03:13.980 --> 03:18.120 And the rest of the acts of Amaziah, are they not written in the book of the 03:18.120 --> 03:19.520 Chronicles of the kings of Judah? 03:20.560 --> 03:24.920 Now they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. 03:25.340 --> 03:28.160 But they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there. 03:28.820 --> 03:32.740 And they brought him on horses, and he was buried at Jerusalem with his 03:32.740 --> 03:34.120 fathers in the city of David. 03:35.560 --> 03:40.640 And all the people of Judah took Azariah, which was sixteen years old, and made him 03:40.640 --> 03:42.780 king, instead of his father Amaziah. 03:43.280 --> 03:45.980 He built Elath and restored it to Judah. 03:46.820 --> 03:48.740 After that the king slept with his fathers. 03:50.040 --> 03:54.700 In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Jehoash king of Judah, Jeroboam the son 03:54.700 --> 03:59.520 of Jehoash king of Israel, began to reign in Samaria, and reigned forty and one 03:59.520 --> 03:59.900 years. 04:00.700 --> 04:03.220 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord. 04:04.100 --> 04:08.800 He departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel 04:08.800 --> 04:09.280 to sin. 04:09.860 --> 04:13.960 He restored the coast of Israel from the entering of Hamath unto the sea of the 04:13.960 --> 04:18.680 plain, according to the word of the Lord God of Israel, which he spake by the hand 04:18.680 --> 04:23.640 of his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, the prophet, which was of Gath-Hepha. 04:24.180 --> 04:27.660 For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel, that it was very bitter. 04:28.480 --> 04:32.980 For there was not any shut up, nor any left, nor any helper for Israel. 04:33.660 --> 04:37.280 And the Lord said not that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven. 04:37.280 --> 04:41.500 But he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam, the son of Joash. 04:42.480 --> 04:46.000 Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did and his might, 04:46.220 --> 04:50.660 how he warred, and how he recovered Damascus and Hamath, which belonged to 04:50.660 --> 04:55.200 Judah for Israel, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of 04:55.200 --> 04:55.500 Israel? 04:56.560 --> 05:00.380 And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, even with the kings of Israel. 05:01.140 --> 05:03.880 And Zechariah his son reigned in his stead. 05:03.880 --> 05:04.180 End
