历代志下 25

亚玛谢登基的时候年二十五岁，在耶路撒冷作王二十九年。他母亲名叫约耶但，是耶路撒冷人。

yà mǎ xiè dēng jī de shí hòu nián èr shí wǔ suì ， zài yē lù sā lěng zuò wáng èr shí jiǔ nián 。 tā mǔ qīn míng jiào yuē yē dàn ， shì yē lù sā lěng rén 。

Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.

亚玛谢行耶和华眼中看为正的事，只是心不专诚。

yà mǎ xiè xíng yē hé huá yǎn zhōng kàn wèi zhèng de shì ， zhǐ shì xīn bù zhuān chéng 。

He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, but not with a perfect heart.

国一坚定，就把杀他父王的臣仆杀了，

guó yì jiān dìng ， jiù bǎ shā tā fù wáng de chén pú shā le ，

Now when the kingdom was established to him, he killed his servants who had killed his father the king.

却没有治死他们的儿子，是照摩西律法书上耶和华所吩咐的说：「不可因子杀父，也不可因父杀子，各人要为本身的罪而死。」

què méi yǒu zhì sǐ tā men de ér zǐ ， shì zhào mó xī lǜ fǎ shū shàng yē hé huá suǒ fēn fù de shuō ：「 bù kě yīn zǐ shā fù ， yě bù kě yīn fù shā zǐ ， gè rén yào wèi běn shēn de zuì ér sǐ 。」

But he didn’t put their children to death, but did according to that which is written in the law in the book of Moses, as the LORD commanded, saying, “The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin.”

亚玛谢招聚犹大人，按着犹大和便雅悯的宗族设立千夫长、百夫长，又数点人数，从二十岁以外，能拿枪拿盾牌出去打仗的精兵共有三十万；

yà mǎ xiè zhāo jù yóu dà rén ， àn zhe yóu dà hé biàn yǎ mǐn de zōng zú shè lì qiān fū cháng 、 bǎi fū zhǎng ， yòu shù diǎn rén shù ， cóng èr shí suì yǐ wài ， néng ná qiāng ná dùn pái chū qù dǎ zhàng de jīng bīng gòng yǒu sān shí wàn ；

Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together and ordered them according to their fathers’ houses, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, even all Judah and Benjamin. He counted them from twenty years old and upward, and found that there were three hundred thousand chosen men, able to go out to war, who could handle spear and shield.

又用银子一百他连得，从以色列招募了十万大能的勇士。

yòu yòng yín zi yì bǎi tā lián dé ， cóng yǐ sè liè zhāo mù le shí wàn dà néng de yǒng shì 。

He also hired one hundred thousand mighty men of valor out of Israel for one hundred talents of silver.

有一个神人来见亚玛谢，对他说：「王啊，不要使以色列的军兵与你同去，因为耶和华不与以色列人以法莲的后裔同在。

yǒu yí gè shén rén lái jiàn yà mǎ xiè ， duì tā shuō ：「 wáng a ， bú yào shǐ yǐ sè liè de jūn bīng yǔ nǐ tóng qù ， yīn wèi yē hé huá bù yǔ yǐ sè liè rén yǐ fǎ lián de hòu yì tóng zài 。

A man of God came to him, saying, “O king, don’t let the army of Israel go with you, for the LORD is not with Israel, with all the children of Ephraim.

你若一定要去，就奋勇争战吧！但 神必使你败在敌人面前；因为 神能助人得胜，也能使人倾败。」

nǐ ruò yí dìng yào qù ， jiù fèn yǒng zhēng zhàn ba ！ dàn shén bì shǐ nǐ bài zài dí rén miàn qián ； yīn wèi shén néng zhù rén dé shèng ， yě néng shǐ rén qīng bài 。」

But if you will go, take action, and be strong for the battle. God will overthrow you before the enemy; for God has power to help, and to overthrow.”

亚玛谢问神人说：「我给了以色列军的那一百他连得银子怎么样呢？」神人回答说：「耶和华能把更多的赐给你。」

yà mǎ xiè wèn shén rén shuō ：「 wǒ gěi le yǐ sè liè jūn de nà yì bǎi tā lián dé yín zi zěn me yàng ne ？」 shén rén huí dá shuō ：「 yē hé huá néng bǎ gèng duō de cì gěi nǐ 。」

Amaziah said to the man of God, “But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel?” The man of God answered, “The LORD is able to give you much more than this.”

于是亚玛谢将那从以法莲来的军兵分别出来，叫他们回家去。故此，他们甚恼怒犹大人，气忿忿地回家去了。

yú shì yà mǎ xiè jiāng nà cóng yǐ fǎ lián lái de jūn bīng fēn bié chū lái ， jiào tā men huí jiā qù 。 gù cǐ ， tā men shèn nǎo nù yóu dà rén ， qì fèn fèn dì huí jiā qù le 。

Then Amaziah separated them, the army that had come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again. Therefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in fierce anger.

亚玛谢壮起胆来，率领他的民到盐谷，杀了西珥人一万。

yà mǎ xiè zhuàng qǐ dǎn lái ， shuài lǐng tā de mín dào yán gǔ ， shā le xī ěr rén yí wàn 。

Amaziah took courage, and led his people out and went to the Valley of Salt, and struck ten thousand of the children of Seir.

犹大人又生擒了一万带到山崖上，从那里把他们扔下去，以致他们都摔碎了。

yóu dà rén yòu shēng qín le yí wàn dài dào shān yá shàng ， cóng nà lǐ bǎ tā men rēng xià qù ， yǐ zhì tā men dōu shuāi suì le 。

The children of Judah carried away ten thousand alive, and brought them to the top of the rock, and threw them down from the top of the rock, so that they all were broken in pieces.

但亚玛谢所打发回去、不许一同出征的那些军兵攻打犹大各城，从撒马利亚直到伯·和 ，杀了三千人，抢了许多财物。

dàn yà mǎ xiè suǒ dǎ fā huí qù 、 bù xǔ yì tóng chū zhēng de nà xiē jūn bīng gōng dǎ yóu dà gè chéng ， cóng sā mǎ lì yà zhí dào bó · hé ， shā le sān qiān rén ， qiǎng le xǔ duō cái wù 。

But the men of the army whom Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell on the cities of Judah from Samaria even to Beth Horon, and struck of them three thousand, and took much plunder.

亚玛谢杀了以东人回来，就把西珥的神像带回，立为自己的神，在它面前叩拜烧香。

yà mǎ xiè shā le yǐ dōng rén huí lái ， jiù bǎ xī ěr de shén xiàng dài huí ， lì wèi zì jǐ de shén ， zài tā miàn qián kòu bài shāo xiāng 。

Now after Amaziah had come from the slaughter of the Edomites, he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them and burned incense to them.

因此，耶和华的怒气向亚玛谢发作，就差一个先知去见他，说：「这些神不能救它的民脱离你的手，你为何寻求它呢？」

yīn cǐ ， yē hé huá de nù qì xiàng yà mǎ xiè fā zuò ， jiù chà yí gè xiān zhī qù jiàn tā ， shuō ：「 zhè xiē shén bù néng jiù tā de mín tuō lí nǐ de shǒu ， nǐ wèi hé xún qiú tā ne ？」

Therefore the LORD’s anger burned against Amaziah, and he sent to him a prophet who said to him, “Why have you sought after the gods of the people, which have not delivered their own people out of your hand?”

先知与王说话的时候，王对他说：「谁立你作王的谋士呢？你住口吧！为何找打呢？」先知就止住了，又说：「你行这事，不听从我的劝戒，我知道 神定意要灭你。」

xiān zhī yǔ wáng shuō huà de shí hòu ， wáng duì tā shuō ：「 shuí lì nǐ zuò wáng de móu shì ne ？ nǐ zhù kǒu ba ！ wèi hé zhǎo dǎ ne ？」 xiān zhī jiù zhǐ zhù le ， yòu shuō ：「 nǐ xíng zhè shì ， bù tīng cóng wǒ de quàn jiè ， wǒ zhī dào shén dìng yì yào miè nǐ 。」

As he talked with him, the king said to him, “Have we made you one of the king’s counselors? Stop! Why should you be struck down?” Then the prophet stopped, and said, “I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this and have not listened to my counsel.”

犹大王亚玛谢与群臣商议，就差遣使者去见耶户的孙子、约哈斯的儿子、以色列王约阿施，说：「你来，我们二人相见于战场。」

yóu dà wáng yà mǎ xiè yǔ qún chén shāng yì ， jiù chāi qiǎn shǐ zhě qù jiàn yē hù de sūn zi 、 yuē hā sī de ér zi 、 yǐ sè liè wáng yuē ā shī ， shuō ：「 nǐ lái ， wǒ men èr rén xiāng jiàn yú zhàn chǎng 。」

Then Amaziah king of Judah consulted his advisers, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, “Come! Let’s look one another in the face.”

以色列王约阿施差遣使者去见犹大王亚玛谢，说：「黎巴嫩的蒺藜差遣使者去见黎巴嫩的香柏树，说：『将你的女儿给我儿子为妻。』后来黎巴嫩有一个野兽经过，把蒺藜践踏了。

yǐ sè liè wáng yuē ā shī chà qiǎn shǐ zhě qù jiàn yóu dà wáng yà mǎ xiè ， shuō ：「 lí bā nèn de jí lí chāi qiǎn shǐ zhě qù jiàn lí bā nèn de xiāng bǎi shù ， shuō ：『 jiāng nǐ de nǚ ér gěi wǒ ér zǐ wèi qī 。』 hòu lái lí bā nèn yǒu yí gè yě shòu jīng guò ， bǎ jí lí jiàn tà le 。

Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son as his wife. Then a wild animal that was in Lebanon passed by and trampled down the thistle.

你说：『看哪，我打败了以东人』，你就心高气傲，以致矜夸。你在家里安居就罢了，为何要惹祸使自己和犹大国一同败亡呢？」

nǐ shuō ：『 kàn nǎ ， wǒ dǎ bài le yǐ dōng rén 』， nǐ jiù xīn gāo qì ào ， yǐ zhì jīn kuā 。 nǐ zài jiā lǐ ān jū jiù bà le ， wèi hé yào rě huò shǐ zì jǐ hé yóu dà guó yì tóng bài wáng ne ？」

You say to yourself that you have struck Edom; and your heart lifts you up to boast. Now stay at home. Why should you meddle with trouble, that you should fall, even you and Judah with you?’”

亚玛谢却不肯听从。这是出乎 神，好将他们交在敌人手里，因为他们寻求以东的神。

yà mǎ xiè què bù kěn tīng cóng 。 zhè shì chū hū shén ， hǎo jiāng tā men jiāo zài dí rén shǒu lǐ ， yīn wèi tā men xún qiú yǐ dōng de shén 。

But Amaziah would not listen; for it was of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they had sought after the gods of Edom.

于是以色列王约阿施上来，在犹大的伯·示麦与犹大王亚玛谢相见于战场。

yú shì yǐ sè liè wáng yuē ā shī shàng lái ， zài yóu dà de bó · shì mài yǔ yóu dà wáng yà mǎ xiè xiāng jiàn yú zhàn chǎng 。

So Joash king of Israel went up, and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.

犹大人败在以色列人面前，各自逃回家里去了。

yóu dà rén bài zài yǐ sè liè rén miàn qián ， gè zì táo huí jiā lǐ qù le 。

Judah was defeated by Israel; so every man fled to his tent.

以色列王约阿施在伯·示麦擒住约哈斯 的孙子、约阿施的儿子、犹大王亚玛谢，将他带到耶路撒冷，又拆毁耶路撒冷的城墙，从以法莲门直到角门，共四百肘；

yǐ sè liè wáng yuē ā shī zài bó · shì mài qín zhù yuē hā sī de sūn zi 、 yuē ā shī de ér zi 、 yóu dà wáng yà mǎ xiè ， jiāng tā dài dào yē lù sā lěng ， yòu chāi huǐ yē lù sā lěng de chéng qiáng ， cóng yǐ fǎ lián mén zhí dào jiǎo mén ， gòng sì bǎi zhǒu ；

Joash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth Shemesh and brought him to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.

又将俄别·以东所看守 神殿里的一切金银和器皿，与王宫里的财宝都拿了去，并带人去为质，就回撒马利亚去了。

yòu jiāng é bié · yǐ dōng suǒ kān shǒu shén diàn lǐ de yí qiè jīn yín hé qì mǐn ， yǔ wáng gōng lǐ de cái bǎo dōu ná le qù ， bìng dài rén qù wèi zhì ， jiù huí sā mǎ lì yà qù le 。

He took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in God’s house with Obed-Edom, and the treasures of the king’s house, and the hostages, and returned to Samaria.

以色列王约哈斯的儿子约阿施死后，犹大王约阿施的儿子亚玛谢又活了十五年。

yǐ sè liè wáng yuē hā sī de ér zǐ yuē ā shī sǐ hòu ， yóu dà wáng yuē ā shī de ér zi yà mǎ xiè yòu huó le shí wǔ nián 。

Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, lived for fifteen years after the death of Joash, son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.

亚玛谢其余的事，自始至终不都写在犹大和以色列诸王记上吗？

yà mǎ xiè qí yú de shì ， zì shǐ zhì zhōng bù dōu xiě zài yóu dà hé yǐ sè liè zhū wáng jì shàng ma ？

Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, aren’t they written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?

自从亚玛谢离弃耶和华之后，在耶路撒冷有人背叛他，他就逃到拉吉；叛党却打发人到拉吉，将他杀了。

zì cóng yà mǎ xiè lí qì yē hé huá zhī hòu ， zài yē lù sā lěng yǒu rén bèi pàn tā ， tā jiù táo dào lā jí ； pàn dǎng què dǎ fā rén dào lā jí ， jiāng tā shā le 。

Now from the time that Amaziah turned away from following the LORD, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem. He fled to Lachish, but they sent after him to Lachish and killed him there.

人就用马将他的尸首驮回，葬在犹大京城他列祖的坟地里。

rén jiù yòng mǎ jiāng tā de shī shǒu tuó huí ， zàng zài yóu dà jīng chéng tā liè zǔ de fén dì lǐ 。

They brought him on horses and buried him with his fathers in the City of Judah.
