The Latin Vulgate VUL
1 In the second year of Jehoash , the son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, Amaziah, the son of Joash , king of Judah, reigned (began to reign).
1
anno secundo Ioas filii Ioachaz regis Israhel regnavit Amasias filius Ioas regis Iuda
2 Amaziah was of five and twenty years, when he began to reign; and he reigned in Jerusalem nine and twenty years; the name of his mother was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.
2
viginti quinque annorum erat cum regnare coepisset viginti autem et novem annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Ioaden de Hierusalem
3 And he did rightfulness before the Lord, nevertheless not as David, his father, did; he did by all things that Joash, his father, did, (And he did what was right before the Lord, but not as his forefather David did; he did all things, that his father Joash did,)
3
et fecit rectum coram Domino verumtamen non ut David pater eius iuxta omnia quae fecit Ioas pater suus fecit
4 no but this only, that he did not away (the) high things; for yet the people made sacrifice, and burnt incense in (the) high things. (in all but this only, that he did not do away the hill shrines; for yet the people made sacrifice, and burned incense at the hill shrines.)
4
nisi hoc tantum quod excelsa non abstulit adhuc enim populus immolabat et adolebat in excelsis
5 And when he had gotten the realm, he smote his servants, that had killed the king, his father;
5
cumque obtinuisset regnum percussit servos suos qui interfecerant regem patrem suum
6 but he killed not the sons of them that had slain the king/that had slain his father, by that that is written in the book of the law of Moses, as the Lord commanded to Moses, and said, [The] Fathers shall not die for the sons, neither the sons for the fathers, but each man shall die in his own sin (but each man shall die for his own sin).
6
filios autem eorum qui occiderant non occidit iuxta quod scriptum est in libro legis Mosi sicut praecepit Dominus dicens non morientur patres pro filiis neque filii morientur pro patribus sed unusquisque in peccato suo morietur
7 He smote Edom in the valley of (the) makings of salt, he smote ten thousand (men), and took the Stone in battle (and took Selah in battle); and he called the name thereof Joktheel , (which it is still called) unto this present day.
7
ipse percussit Edom in valle Salinarum decem milia et adprehendit Petram in proelio vocavitque nomen eius Iecethel usque in praesentem diem
8 Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, and said, Come thou, and see we us in battle/Come thou, and see we us (Come thou, let us have a meeting).
8
tunc misit Amasias nuntios ad Ioas filium Ioachaz filii Hieu regis Israhel dicens veni et videamus nos
9 And Jehoash, king of Israel, sent again to Amaziah, king of Judah, and said mystically, The carduus, or thistle, that is, a low herb, and full of thorns, of the Lebanon sent to the cedar, that is in the Lebanon, and said, Give thy daughter (as) wife to my son; and the beasts of the forest, that be in the Lebanon, passed forth, and trode down the carduus.
9
remisitque Ioas rex Israhel ad Amasiam regem Iuda dicens carduus Libani misit ad cedrum quae est in Libano dicens da filiam tuam filio meo uxorem transieruntque bestiae saltus quae sunt in Libano et conculcaverunt carduum
10 Thou hast smitten Edom, and haddest the mastery upon it, and thine heart hath raised thee (up); be thou satisfied with this glory, and sit in thine house; why excitest thou evil, or stirrest thou (up) evil, so that thou fall, and Judah with thee?
10
percutiens invaluisti super Edom et sublevavit te cor tuum contentus esto gloria et sede in domo tua quare provocas malum ut cadas tu et Iuda tecum
11 And Amaziah assented not to be in peace; and Jehoash, king of Israel, went up, and he and Amaziah, king of Judah, saw themselves (when they met in battle) in Bethshemesh, a city of Judah. (But Amaziah assented not to be at peace; and so Jehoash, the king of Israel, went up, and he and Amaziah, the king of Judah, faced each other when they met in battle, in Bethshemesh, a city of Judah.)
11
et non adquievit Amasias ascenditque Ioas rex Israhel et viderunt se ipse et Amasias rex Iuda in Bethsames oppido Iudae
12 And Judah was smitten before Israel; and they fled each man into his tabernacles.
12
percussusque est Iuda coram Israhel et fugerunt unusquisque in tabernacula sua
13 Soothly Jehoash, king of Israel, took in Bethshemesh Amaziah, king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Ahaziah, and brought him into Jerusalem (And Jehoash, the king of Israel, captured Amaziah, the king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Ahaziah, at Bethshemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem); and he brake the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim unto the gate of the corner, by four hundred cubits.
13
Amasiam vero regem Iuda filium Ioas filii Ahaziae cepit Ioas rex Israhel in Bethsames et adduxit eum in Hierusalem et interrupit murum Hierusalem a porta Ephraim usque ad portam Anguli quadringentis cubitis
14 And he took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels, that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king('s) (house); and he took hostages, and turned again into Samaria. (And he took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels, that were found in the House of the Lord, and in the treasuries of the palace; and he also took some hostages, and then returned to Samaria.)
14
tulitque omne aurum et argentum et universa vasa quae inventa sunt in domo Domini et in thesauris regis et obsides et reversus est Samariam
15 Soothly the residue of [the] words of Jehoash, which he did, and his strength, by which he fought against Amaziah, king of Judah, whether these be not written in the book of [the] words of [the] days of the kings of Israel?
15
reliqua autem verborum Ioas quae fecit et fortitudo eius qua pugnavit contra Amasiam regem Iuda nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Israhel
16 And Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam (II), his son, reigned for him.
16
dormivitque Ioas cum patribus suis et sepultus est in Samaria cum regibus Israhel et regnavit Hieroboam filius eius pro eo
17 Forsooth Amaziah, the son of Joash, king of Judah, lived five and twenty years, after that Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, was dead. (And Amaziah, the son of Joash, the king of Judah, lived for fifteen years after that Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, the king of Israel, died.)
17
vixit autem Amasias filius Ioas rex Iuda postquam mortuus est Ioas filius Ioachaz regis Israhel viginti quinque annis
18 Forsooth the residue of the words of Amaziah, whether these be not written in the book of [the] words of [the] days of the kings of Judah?
18
reliqua autem sermonum Amasiae nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda
19 And swearing together, that is, conspiracy, in Jerusalem was made against him, and he fled into Lachish; and they sent after him into Lachish, and killed him there. (And a conspiracy was made against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish; but they went after him to Lachish, and killed him there.)
19
factaque est contra eum coniuratio in Hierusalem at ille fugit in Lachis miseruntque post eum in Lachis et interfecerunt eum ibi
20 And they bare out him in horses (And they brought back his body on a horse), and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers, in the city of David.
20
et asportaverunt in equis sepultusque est in Hierusalem cum patribus suis in civitate David
21 Forsooth all the people of Judah took Azariah, having sixteen years; and made him king for his father Amaziah. (And all the people of Judah took Azariah, also known as Uzziah, who was sixteen years old; and made him king for his father Amaziah.)
21
tulit autem universus populus Iudae Azariam annos natum sedecim et constituerunt eum regem pro patre eius Amasia
22 He builded Elath, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers. (And he built Elath, and restored it to Judah, after that King Amaziah slept with his forefathers, or died.)
22
ipse aedificavit Ahilam et restituit eam Iudae postquam dormivit rex cum patribus suis
23 In the fifteenth year of Amaziah, the son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam (II), the son of Jehoash, king of Israel, reigned in Samaria one and forty years; (In the fifteenth year of Amaziah, the son of Joash, the king of Judah, Jeroboam II, the son of Jehoash, the king of Israel, began to reign in Samaria, and he reigned for forty-one years;)
23
anno quintodecimo Amasiae filii Ioas regis Iuda regnavit Hieroboam filius Ioas regis Israhel in Samaria quadraginta et uno anno
24 and did that, that is evil before the Lord (and he did what was evil before the Lord); he went not away from all the sins of Jeroboam, [the] son of Nebat, that made Israel to do sin.
24
et fecit quod malum est coram Domino non recessit ab omnibus peccatis Hieroboam filii Nabath qui peccare fecit Israhel
25 He restored the terms of Israel, from the entering of Hamath unto the sea of (the) wilderness, by the word of the Lord God of Israel, which he spake by his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, (that is,) by Jonah, the prophet, that was of Gath, that is in Hepher. (He restored the borders of Israel, from the entering of Hamath unto the Sea of the Wilderness, that is, the Dead Sea, according to the word of the Lord God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, that is, by the prophet Jonah, who was of Gath-hepher.)
25
ipse restituit terminos Israhel ab introitu Emath usque ad mare Solitudinis iuxta sermonem Domini Dei Israhel quem locutus est per servum suum Ionam filium Amathi prophetam qui erat de Geth quae est in Opher
26 For the Lord saw the full bitter torment of Israel, and that they were wasted unto the closed men of prison (and that they were wasted unto the enclosed men in prison), and to the last men, and there was none that helped Israel.
26
vidit enim Dominus adflictionem Israhel amaram nimis et quod consumpti essent usque ad clausos carcere et extremos et non esset qui auxiliaretur Israhel
27 And the Lord spake not, that he should do away [the name of] Israel from under heaven, but he saved them in the hand of Jeroboam (II), the son of Jehoash. (And the Lord spoke not, that he would do away the name of Israel from under heaven, but he saved them by the hand, or by the power, of Jeroboam II, the son of Jehoash.)
27
nec locutus est Dominus ut deleret nomen Israhel sub caelo sed salvavit eos in manu Hieroboam filii Ioas
28 Forsooth the residue of the words of Jeroboam (II), and all things that he did, and the strength of him, by which he fought, and how he restored Damascus, and Hamath of Judah, in Israel (to Israel), whether these be not written in the book of [the] words of [the] days of the kings of Israel?
28
reliqua autem sermonum Hieroboam et universa quae fecit et fortitudo eius qua proeliatus est et quomodo restituit Damascum et Emath Iudae in Israhel nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Israhel
29 And Jeroboam (II) slept with his fathers, the kings of Israel; and Zachariah , his son, reigned for him.

dormivitque Hieroboam cum patribus suis regibus Israhel et regnavit Zaccharias filius eius pro eo
