Chapter 16

1 IN the eighteenth year of Pekah the son of Romaliah, Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.

2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and he did not do that which was right in the sight of the LORD his God, and thus was unlike David his father.

3 But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and also made his son to pass through the fire, according to the custom of the Gentiles whom the LORD had destroyed from before the children of Israel.

4 And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places and on the hills and under every green tree.

5 Then Rezin king of Aram, and Pekah the son of Romaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war against it; but they could not fight against it.

6 At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram, and drove Judah from Elath; and the Arameans came to Elath and dwell there to this day.

7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, I am your servant and your son; come up and save me from the hands of the king of Aram and from the hands of the king of Israel, who are risen up against me.

8 And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it as a present to the king of Assyria.

9 And the king of Assyria listened to him; so the king of Assyria went up against Damascus and took it and carried its people captive to Kir, and he slew Rezin.

10 And when King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, he saw an altar that was in Damascus; and King Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship thereof.

11 So Urijah the priest built an altar according to all that King Ahaz had sent from Damascus; and Urijah the priest made it before King Ahaz came from Damascus.

12 And when the king was come from Damascus, King Ahaz saw the altar; and the king drew near to the altar and went up to it,

13 And burned his burnt offerings and his meal offerings, and poured his drink offerings and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings upon the altar.

14 And the altar of brass, which was before the LORD, he removed from the forefront of the house, from between the altar and the house of the LORD, and put it on the north side of the altar.

15 And King Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, Upon the great altar burn the morning burnt offering and the evening meal offering and the king's burnt offering and his meal offering, with the burnt offerings of all the people of the land and their meal offerings and their drink offerings; and sprinkle upon it all the blood of the burnt offerings and all the blood of the sacrifices; and the bronze altar shall be for me to inquire of the LORD.

16 Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that King Ahaz commanded him.

17 And King Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases and removed the lavers from off them; and took down the sea from off the bronze oxen that were under it and put it upon a pavement of stones.

18 And the shelter for the sabbath which they had built in the house of the LORD and in the entrance of the outer gate, he turned round the house of the LORD because of the fear of the king of Assyria.

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

20 And Ahaz slept with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of David; and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.

1 In the seventeenth7651 6240 year8141 of Pekah6492 the son1121 of Remaliah7425 Ahaz271 the son1121 of Jotham3147 king4428 of Judah3063 began to reign.4427

2 Twenty6242 years8141 old1121 was Ahaz271 when he began to reign,4427 and reigned4427 sixteen8337 6240 years8141 in Jerusalem,3389 and did6213 not that which was right3477 in the sight5869 of the LORD3068 his God,430 like David1732 his father.1

3 But he walked3212 in the way1870 of the kings4428 of Israel,3478 yes,1571 and made his son1121 to pass5674 through the fire,784 according to the abominations8441 of the heathen,1471 whom834 the LORD3068 cast3423 out from before6440 the children1121 of Israel.3478

4 And he sacrificed2076 and burnt6999 incense6999 in the high1116 places, and on5921 the hills,1389 and under8478 every3605 green7488 tree.6086

5 Then227 Rezin7526 king4428 of Syria758 and Pekah6492 son1121 of Remaliah7425 king4428 of Israel3478 came5927 up to Jerusalem3389 to war:4421 and they besieged6696 Ahaz,271 but could3201 not overcome3898 him.

6 At that time6256 Rezin7526 king4428 of Syria758 recovered7725 Elath359 to Syria,758 and drove5394 the Jews3064 from Elath:359 and the Syrians758 came935 to Elath,359 and dwelled3427 there8033 to this2088 day.3117

7 So Ahaz271 sent7971 messengers4397 to Tiglathpileser8407 king4428 of Assyria,804 saying,559 I am your servant5650 and your son:1121 come5927 up, and save3467 me out of the hand3709 of the king4428 of Syria,758 and out of the hand3709 of the king4428 of Israel,3478 which rise6965 up against5921 me.

8 And Ahaz271 took3947 the silver3701 and gold2091 that was found4672 in the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and in the treasures214 of the king's4428 house,1004 and sent7971 it for a present7810 to the king4428 of Assyria.804

9 And the king4428 of Assyria804 listened8085 to him: for the king4428 of Assyria804 went5927 up against413 Damascus,1834 and took8610 it, and carried1540 the people of it captive1540 to Kir,7024 and slew4191 Rezin.7526

10 And king4428 Ahaz271 went3212 to Damascus1834 to meet7125 Tiglathpileser8407 king4428 of Assyria,804 and saw7200 an altar4196 that was at Damascus:1834 and king4428 Ahaz271 sent7971 to Urijah223 the priest3548 the fashion1823 of the altar,4196 and the pattern8403 of it, according to all3605 the workmanship4639 thereof.

11 And Urijah223 the priest3548 built1129 an altar4196 according to all3605 that king4428 Ahaz271 had sent7971 from Damascus:1834 so3651 Urijah223 the priest3548 made6213 it against5704 king4428 Ahaz271 came935 from Damascus.1834

12 And when the king4428 was come935 from Damascus,1834 the king4428 saw7200 the altar:4196 and the king4428 approached7126 to the altar,4196 and offered5927 thereon.5921

13 And he burnt6999 his burnt5930 offering 4503and his meat offering, and poured5258 his drink5262 offering, and sprinkled2236 the blood1818 of his peace8002 offerings, on the altar.4196

14 And he brought7126 also the brazen5178 altar,4196 which834 was before6440 the LORD,3068 from the forefront6440 of the house,1004 from between996 the altar4196 and the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and put5414 it on5921 the north6828 side3409 of the altar.4196

15 And king4428 Ahaz271 commanded6680 Urijah223 the priest,3548 saying,559 On the great1419 altar4196 burn6999 the morning1242 burnt5930 offering, and the evening6153 meat offering,4503 and the king's4428 burnt5930 sacrifice, and his meat offering,4503 with the burnt5930 offering of all3605 the people5971 of the land,776 and their meat offering,4503 and their drink5262 offerings; and sprinkle2236 on it all3605 the blood1818 of the burnt5930 offering, and all3605 the blood1818 of the sacrifice:2077 and the brazen5178 altar4196 shall be for me to inquire1239 by.

16 Thus did6213 Urijah223 the priest,3548 according to all3605 that king4428 Ahaz271 commanded.6680

17 And king4428 Ahaz271 cut7112 off the borders4526 of the bases,4350 and removed5493 the laver3595 from off5921 them; and took3381 down3381 the sea3220 from off5921 the brazen5178 oxen1241 that were under8478 it, and put5414 it on the pavement4837 of stones.68

18 And the covert4329 for the sabbath7676 that they had built1129 in the house,1004 and the king's4428 entry3996 without,2435 turned5437 he from the house1004 of the LORD3068 for the king4428 of Assyria.804

19 Now the rest3499 of the acts1697 of Ahaz271 which834 he did,6213 are they not written3789 in the book5612 of the chronicles of the kings4428 of Judah?3063

20 And Ahaz271 slept7901 with his fathers,1 and was buried6912 with his fathers1 in the city5892 of David:1732 and Hezekiah2396 his son1121 reigned4427 in his stead.8478

3 But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and also made his son to pass through the fire, according to the custom of the Gentiles whom the LORD had destroyed from before the children of Israel.

3 But he walked3212 in the way1870 of the kings4428 of Israel,3478 yes,1571 and made his son1121 to pass5674 through the fire,784 according to the abominations8441 of the heathen,1471 whom834 the LORD3068 cast3423 out from before6440 the children1121 of Israel.3478

7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, I am your servant and your son; come up and save me from the hands of the king of Aram and from the hands of the king of Israel, who are risen up against me.

7 So Ahaz271 sent7971 messengers4397 to Tiglathpileser8407 king4428 of Assyria,804 saying,559 I am your servant5650 and your son:1121 come5927 up, and save3467 me out of the hand3709 of the king4428 of Syria,758 and out of the hand3709 of the king4428 of Israel,3478 which rise6965 up against5921 me.

8 And Ahaz271 took3947 the silver3701 and gold2091 that was found4672 in the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and in the treasures214 of the king's4428 house,1004 and sent7971 it for a present7810 to the king4428 of Assyria.804

9 And the king of Assyria listened to him; so the king of Assyria went up against Damascus and took it and carried its people captive to Kir, and he slew Rezin.

9 And the king4428 of Assyria804 listened8085 to him: for the king4428 of Assyria804 went5927 up against413 Damascus,1834 and took8610 it, and carried1540 the people of it captive1540 to Kir,7024 and slew4191 Rezin.7526
