Old Testament
1 In the twenty-third year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu became king over Israel in Samaria, and reigned seventeen years.
1 ΕΝ ἔτει εἰκοστῷ καὶ τρίτῳ ἔτει τῷ Ἰωὰς υἱῷ Ὀχοζίου βασιλεῖ Ἰούδα ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωάχαζ υἱὸς Ἰοὺ ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ ἑπτακαίδεκα ἔτη.
2 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin. He did not depart from them.
2 καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὀπίσω ἁμαρτιῶν Ἱεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβάτ, ὃς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν Ἰσραήλ, οὐκ ἀπέστη ἀπ᾿ αὐτῶν.
3 Then the anger of the LORD was aroused against Israel, and He delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Ben-Hadad the son of Hazael, all their days.
3 καὶ ὠργίσθη θυμῷ Κύριος ἐν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοὺς ἐν χειρὶ Ἀζαὴλ βασιλέως Συρίας καὶ ἐν χειρὶ υἱοῦ Ἄδερ υἱοῦ Ἀζαὴλ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας.
4 So Jehoahaz pleaded with the LORD, and the LORD listened to him; for He saw the oppression of Israel, because the king of Syria oppressed them.
4 καὶ ἐδεήθη Ἰωάχαζ τοῦ προσώπου Κυρίου, καὶ ἐπήκουσεν αὐτοῦ Κύριος, ὅτι εἶδε τὴν θλῖψιν Ἰσραήλ, ὅτι ἔθλιψεν αὐτοὺς βασιλεὺς Συρίας.
5 Then the LORD gave Israel a deliverer, so that they escaped from under the hand of the Syrians; and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents as before.
5 καὶ ἔδωκεν Κύριος σωτηρίαν τῷ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὑποκάτωθεν χειρὸς Συρίας. καὶ ἐκάθισαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τοῖς σκηνώμασιν αὐτῶν καθὼς ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτης·
6 Nevertheless they did not depart from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who had made Israel sin, but walked in them; and the wooden image also remained in Samaria.
6 πλὴν οὐκ ἀπέστησαν ἀπὸ ἁμαρτιῶν οἴκου Ἱεροβοάμ, ὃς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν Ἰσραήλ, ἐν αὐταῖς ἐπορεύθησαν, καί γε τὸ ἄλσος ἐστάθη ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ.
7 For He left of the army of Jehoahaz only fifty horsemen, ten chariots, and ten thousand foot soldiers; for the king of Syria had destroyed them and made them like the dust at threshing.
7 ὅτι οὐχ ὑπελείφθη τῷ Ἰωάχαζ λαός, ἀλλ᾿ ἢ πεντήκοντα ἱππεῖς καὶ δέκα ἅρματα καὶ δέκα χιλιάδες πεζῶν, ὅτι ἀπώλεσεν αὐτοὺς βασιλεὺς Συρίας, καὶ ἔθεντο αὐτοὺς ὡς χοῦν εἰς καταπάτησιν.
8 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
8 καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ἰωάχαζ καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησε καὶ αἱ δυναστεῖαι αὐτοῦ, οὐχὶ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ἰσραήλ;
9 So Jehoahaz rested with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. Then Joash his son reigned in his place.
9 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἰωάχαζ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωὰς υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
10 In the thirty-seventh year of Joash king of Judah, Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz became king over Israel in Samaria, and reigned sixteen years.
10 Ἐν ἔτει τριακοστῷ καὶ ἑβδόμῳ ἔτει τῷ Ἰωὰς βασιλεῖ Ἰούδα ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωὰς υἱὸς Ἰωάχαζ ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ ἑκκαίδεκα ἔτη.
11 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD. He did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin, but walked in them.
11 καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου· οὐκ ἀπέστη ἀπὸ πάσης ἁμαρτίας Ἱεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβάτ, ὃς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν Ἰσραήλ, ἐν αὐταῖς ἐπορεύθη.
12 Now the rest of the acts of Joash, all that he did, and his might with which he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
12 καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ἰωὰς καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησε, καὶ αἱ δυναστεῖαι αὐτοῦ, ἃς ἐποίησε μετὰ Ἀμεσσίου βασιλέως Ἰούδα, οὐχὶ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ἰσραήλ;
13 So Joash rested with his fathers. Then Jeroboam sat on his throne. And Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
13 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἰωὰς μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ, καὶ Ἱεροβοὰμ ἐκάθισεν ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ μετὰ τῶν βασιλέων Ἰσραήλ.
14 Elisha had become sick with the illness of which he would die. Then Joash the king of Israel came down to him, and wept over his face, and said, “O my father, my father, the chariots of Israel and their horsemen!”
14 Καὶ Ἑλισαιὲ ἠρρώστησε τὴν ἀρρωστίαν αὐτοῦ, δι᾿ ἣν ἀπέθανε. καὶ κατέβη πρὸς αὐτὸν Ἰωὰς βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἔκλαυσεν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπε· πάτερ πάτερ, ἅρμα Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἱππεὺς αὐτοῦ.
15 And Elisha said to him, “Take a bow and some arrows.” So he took himself a bow and some arrows.
15 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἑλισαιέ· λάβε τόξον καὶ βέλη. καὶ ἔλαβε πρὸς ἑαυτὸν τόξον καὶ βέλη.
16 Then he said to the king of Israel, “Put your hand on the bow.” So he put his hand on it, and Elisha put his hands on the king’s hands.
16 καὶ εἶπε τῷ βασιλεῖ· ἐπιβίβασον τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐπὶ τὸ τόξον· καὶ ἐπεβίβασεν Ἰωὰς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπέθηκεν Ἑλισαιὲ τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὰς χεῖρας τοῦ βασιλέως.
17 And he said, “Open the east window”; and he opened it. Then Elisha said, “Shoot”; and he shot. And he said, “The arrow of the LORD’s deliverance and the arrow of deliverance from Syria; for you must strike the Syrians at Aphek till you have destroyed them.”
17 καὶ εἶπεν· ἄνοιξον τὴν θυρίδα κατ᾿ ἀνατολάς· καὶ ἤνοιξε. καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλισαιέ· τόξευσον· καὶ ἐτόξευσε. καὶ εἶπε· βέλος σωτηρίας τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ βέλος σωτηρίας ἐν Συρίᾳ, καὶ πατάξεις τὴν Συρίαν ἐν Ἀφὲκ ἕως συντελείας.
18 Then he said, “Take the arrows”; so he took them. And he said to the king of Israel, “Strike the ground”; so he struck three times, and stopped.
18 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἑλισαιέ· λάβε τόξα· καὶ ἔλαβε. καὶ εἶπε τῷ βασιλεῖ Ἰσραήλ· πάταξον εἰς τὴν γῆν· καὶ ἐπάταξεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τρὶς καὶ ἔστη.
19 And the man of God was angry with him, and said, “You should have struck five or six times; then you would have struck Syria till you had destroyed it! But now you will strike Syria only three times.”
19 καὶ ἐλυπήθη ἐπ᾿ αὐτῷ ὁ ἄνθρωπος τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ εἶπεν· εἰ ἐπάταξας πεντάκις ἢ ἑξάκις, τότε ἂν ἐπάταξας τὴν Συρίαν ἕως συντελείας· καὶ νῦν τρὶς πατάξεις τὴν Συρίαν.
20 Then Elisha died, and they buried him. And the raiding bands from Moab invaded the land in the spring of the year.
20 καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ἑλισαιέ, καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτόν. καὶ μονόζωνοι Μωὰβ ἦλθον ἐν τῇ γῇ ἐλθόντος τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ·
21 So it was, as they were burying a man, that suddenly they spied a band of raiders; and they put the man in the tomb of Elisha; and when the man was let down and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived and stood on his feet.
21 καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῶν θαπτόντων τὸν ἄνδρα, καὶ ἰδοὺ εἶδον τὸν μονόζωνον καὶ ἔρριψαν τὸν ἄνδρα ἐν τῷ τάφῳ Ἑλισαιέ, καὶ ἐπορεύθη καὶ ἥψατο τῶν ὀστέων Ἑλισαιὲ καὶ ἔζησε καὶ ἀνέστη ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ.
22 And Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
22 καὶ Ἀζαὴλ ἐξέθλιψε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας Ἰωάχαζ.
23 But the LORD was gracious to them, had compassion on them, and regarded them, because of His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not yet destroy them or cast them from His presence.
23 καὶ ἠλέησε Κύριος αὐτούς, καὶ ᾠκτείρησεν αὐτοὺς καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς διὰ τὴν διαθήκην αὐτοῦ τὴν μετὰ Ἁβραὰμ καὶ Ἰσαὰκ καὶ Ἰακώβ, καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησε Κύριος διαφθεῖραι αὐτοὺς καὶ οὐκ ἀπέρριψεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τοῦ προσώπου αὐτοῦ.
24 Now Hazael king of Syria died. Then Ben-Hadad his son reigned in his place.
24 καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ἀζαὴλ βασιλεὺς Συρίας, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν υἱὸς Ἄδερ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
25 And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz recaptured from the hand of Ben-Hadad, the son of Hazael, the cities which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times Joash defeated him and recaptured the cities of Israel.
25 καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ἰωὰς υἱὸς Ἰωάχαζ καὶ ἔλαβε τὰς πόλεις ἐκ χειρὸς υἱοῦ Ἄδερ υἱοῦ Ἀζαήλ, ἃς ἔλαβεν ἐκ χειρὸς Ἰωάχαζ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ πολέμῳ· τρὶς ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν Ἰωὰς καὶ ἐπέστρεψε τὰς πόλεις Ἰσραήλ.
