And he was also delivered into the yad Melech Yisroel, who inflicted on him makkah gedolah.6For Pekach ben Remalyahu slaughtered in Yehudah7And Zichri, a gibbor of Ephrayim, slaughtered Ma'aseiyahu ben HaMelech, and Azrikam the Nagid HaBais, and Elkanah Mishneh HaMelech.8And the Bnei Yisroel carried away captive of their achim9But a navi of Hashem was there shmo Oded, and he went out before the faces of the tzava returning to Shomron, and said unto them, Hinei, because Hashem Elohei Avoteichem was angry with Yehudah, He hath delivered them into your yad, and ye have slain them in a rage that reacheth up unto Shomayim.10And now ye intend to keep under the Bnei Yehudah and Yerushalayim for avadim and shefachot unto you, but are there not with you, even with you, sins against Hashem Eloheichem?11Now hear me therefore, and send back the prisoners, which ye have taken captive of your achim, for the Charon Af Hashem is upon you.12Then certain anashim of the Rashei Bnei Ephrayim, Azaryahu ben Yehochanan, Berechyahu ben Meshillemot, Yechizkiyahu ben Shallum, and Amasa ben Chadlai, stood up against them that came from the tzava,13And said unto them, Ye shall not bring in the prisoners here; for whereas we have offended against Hashem already, ye intend to add more to chattotenu and to ashmatenu, for our guilt is great, and there is Charon Af against Yisroel.14So the soldiers released the prisoners and the plunder before the sarim and kol HaKahal.15And the men which were designated by shemot rose up, and took the prisoners, and with the plunder clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and put balm on them, and carried all the weak of them upon donkeys, and brought them to Yericho, the Ir Temarim, to their achim. Then they returned to Shomron.16years in Yerushalayim; but he did not that which was yashar in the eyes of Hashem , like Dovid Aviv,17For again the people of Edom had come and attacked Yehudah, and carried away prisoners.18The Pelishtim also had invaded the towns of the Shefelah, and of the Negev of Yehudah, and had taken Beit-Shemesh, Ayalon, Gederot, and Sokhoh with the villages thereof, and Timnah with the villages thereof, Gimzo also and the villages thereof, and they dwelt there.19For Hashem brought Yehudah low because of Achaz Melech Yisroel, for he brought disgrace to Yehudah, and acted treacherously against Hashem .20when he began to reign, and he reigned21For Achaz took away a portion out of the Beis Hashem , and out of the Bais HaMelech, and of the sarim, and gave it unto Melech Ashur, but he helped him not.22And in the time of his distress he did act even more unfaithfully against Hashem . This is that Melech Achaz.23For he sacrificed unto the elohei Damascus, which defeated him, and he said, Because the elohim of the melachim of Syria help them, therefore will I sacrifice to them, that they may help me. But they were the ruin of him, and of kol Yisroel.24And Achaz gathered together the vessels of the Beis HaElohim, and cut up the vessels of the Beis HaElohim and shut up the daletot Beis Hashem , and he set up for him mizbechot in every corner of Yerushalayim.25And in every town in Yehudah he made high places to burn ketoret unto elohim acherim, and provoked to anger Hashem Elohei Avotav.26Now the rest of his acts and of all his ways, the rishonim and the acharonim, hinei, they are written in the Sefer of the Melachim of Yehudah and Yisroel.27And Achaz slept with Avotav, and they buried him in the city, even in Yerushalayim, but they brought him not into the keverim of the Melachim of Yisroel. And Chizkiyahu (Yechizkiyahu) bno reigned in his place.120elef in yom echad, which were all valiant men; because they had forsaken Hashem Elohei Avotam.200elef nashim, banim, and banot, and took also away much plunder from them, and carried back the plunder to Shomron.Divrey Hayamim Bais 27Divrey Hayamim Bais 29
