II Kings 16

anno septimodecimo Phacee filii Romeliae regnavit Ahaz filius Ioatham regis Iuda

In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.

viginti annorum erat Ahaz cum regnare coepisset et sedecim annis regnavit in Hierusalem non fecit quod erat placitum in conspectu Domini Dei sui sicut David pater eius

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

sed ambulavit in via regum Israhel insuper et filium suum consecravit transferens per ignem secundum idola gentium quae dissipavit Dominus coram filiis Israhel

But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yea, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel.

immolabat quoque victimas et adolebat incensum in excelsis et in collibus et sub omni ligno frondoso

And he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.

tunc ascendit Rasin rex Syriae et Phacee filius Romeliae rex Israhel in Hierusalem ad proeliandum cumque obsiderent Ahaz non valuerunt superare eum

Then Rezin king of Syria and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war: and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome him.

in tempore illo restituit Rasin rex Syriae Ahilam Syriae et eiecit Iudaeos de Ahilam et Idumei venerunt in Ahilam et habitaverunt ibi usque in diem hanc

At that time Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath to Syria, and drave the Jews from Elath: and the Syrians came to Elath, and dwelt there unto this day.

misit autem Ahaz nuntios ad Theglathfalassar regem Assyriorum dicens servus tuus et filius tuus ego sum ascende et salvum me fac de manu regis Syriae et de manu regis Israhel qui consurrexerunt adversum me

So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath–pileser king of Assyria, saying, I am thy servant and thy son: come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, which rise up against me.

et cum collegisset argentum et aurum quod invenire potuit in domo Domini et in thesauris regis misit regi Assyriorum munera

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 for a present to the king of Assyria.

qui et adquievit voluntati eius ascendit enim rex Assyriorum in Damascum et vastavit eam et transtulit habitatores eius Cyrenen Rasin autem interfecit

And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him: for the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried the people of it captive to Kir, and slew Rezin.

perrexitque rex Ahaz in occursum Theglathfalassar regis Assyriorum in Damascum cumque vidisset altare Damasci misit rex Ahaz ad Uriam sacerdotem exemplar eius et similitudinem iuxta omne opus eius

And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath–pileser king of Assyria, and saw an altar that was at 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.

extruxitque Urias sacerdos altare iuxta omnia quae praeceperat rex Ahaz de Damasco ita fecit Urias sacerdos donec veniret rex Ahaz de Damasco

And Urijah the priest built an altar according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus: so Urijah the priest made it against king Ahaz came from Damascus.

cumque venisset rex de Damasco vidit altare et veneratus est illud ascenditque et immolavit holocausta et sacrificium suum

And when the king was come from Damascus, the king saw the altar: and the king approached to the altar, and offered thereon.

et libavit libamina et fudit sanguinem pacificorum quae obtulerat super altare

And he burnt his burnt offering and his meat offering, and poured his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings, upon the altar.

porro altare aeneum quod erat coram Domino transtulit de facie templi et de loco altaris et de loco templi Domini posuitque illud ex latere altaris ad aquilonem

And he brought also the brasen altar, which was before the LORD, 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.

praecepit quoque rex Ahaz Uriae sacerdoti dicens super altare maius offer holocaustum matutinum et sacrificium vespertinum et holocaustum regis et sacrificium eius et holocaustum universi populi terrae et sacrificia eorum et libamina eorum et omnem sanguinem holocausti et universum sanguinem victimae super illud effundes altare vero aeneum erit paratum ad voluntatem meam

And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, Upon the great altar burn the morning burnt offering, and the evening meat offering, and the king's burnt sacrifice, and his meat offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their meat offering, and their drink offerings; and sprinkle upon it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice: and the brasen altar shall be for me to enquire by.

fecit igitur Urias sacerdos iuxta omnia quae praeceperat rex Ahaz

Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.

tulit autem rex Ahaz celatas bases et luterem qui erat desuper et mare deposuit de bubus aeneis qui sustentabant illud et posuit super pavimentum stratum lapide

And king Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them; and took down the sea from off the brasen oxen that were under it, and put it upon a pavement of stones.

Musach quoque sabbati quod aedificaverat in templo et ingressum regis exterius convertit in templo Domini propter regem Assyriorum

And the covert for the sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry without, turned he from the house of the LORD for the king of Assyria.

reliqua autem verborum Ahaz quae fecit nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda

Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

dormivitque Ahaz cum patribus suis et sepultus est cum eis in civitate David et regnavit Ezechias filius eius pro eo

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.
