Old Testament
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah, Ahaz the son of Jotham, king of Judah, began to reign.
1 ΕΝ ἔτει ἑπτακαιδεκάτῳ Φακεὲ υἱοῦ Ρομελίου ἐβασίλευσεν Ἄχαζ υἱὸς Ἰωάθαμ βασιλέως Ἰούδα.
2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and he did not do what was right in the sight of the LORD his God, as his father David had done.
2 υἱὸς εἴκοσιν ἐτῶν ἦν Ἄχαζ ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν καὶ ἑκκαίδεκα ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ. καὶ οὐκ ἐποίησε τὸ εὐθὲς ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου Θεοῦ αὐτοῦ πιστῶς, ὡς Δαυὶδ ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ
3 But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel; indeed he made his son pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the nations whom the LORD had cast out from before the children of Israel.
3 καὶ ἐπορεύθη, ἐν ὁδῷ βασιλέων Ἰσραήλ, καί γε τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ διῆγεν ἐν πυρὶ κατὰ τὰ βδελύγματα τῶν ἐθνῶν, ὧν ἐξῇρε Κύριος ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ,
4 And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.
4 καὶ ἐθυσίαζε καὶ ἐθυμία ἐν τοῖς ὑψηλοῖς καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν βουνῶν καὶ ὑποκάτω παντὸς ξύλου ἀλσώδους.
5 Then Rezin king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war; and they besieged Ahaz but could not overcome him.
5 τότε ἀνέβη Ραασσὼν βασιλεὺς Συρίας καὶ Φακεὲ υἱὸς Ρομελίου βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ εἰς πόλεμον καὶ ἐπολιόρκουν ἐπὶ Ἄχαζ καὶ οὐκ ἠδύναντο πολεμεῖν.
6 At that time Rezin king of Syria captured Elath for Syria, and drove the men of Judah from Elath. Then the Edomites went to Elath, and dwell there to this day.
6 ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἐπέστρεψε Ραασσὼν βασιλεὺς Συρίας τὴν Αἰλὰθ τῇ Συρίᾳ καὶ ἐξέβαλε τοὺς Ἰουδαίους ἐξ Αἰλὰθ καὶ Ἰδουμαῖοι ἦλθον εἰς Αἰλὰθ καὶ κατῴκησαν ἐκεῖ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης.
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 hand of the king of Syria and from the hand of the king of Israel, who rise up against me.”
7 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἄχαζ ἀγγέλους πρὸς Θαγλαθφελλασὰρ βασιλέα Ἀσσυρίων λέγων· δοῦλός σου καὶ υἱός σου ἐγώ, ἀνάβηθι καὶ σῶσόν με ἐκ χειρὸς βασιλέως Συρίας καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς βασιλέως Ἰσραὴλ τῶν ἐπανισταμένων ἐπ᾿ ἐμέ.
8 And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasuries of the king’s house, and sent it as a present to the king of Assyria.
8 καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἄχαζ ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον τὸ εὑρεθὲν ἐν θησαυροῖς οἴκου Κυρίου καὶ οἴκου βασιλέως καὶ ἀπέστειλε τῷ βασιλεῖ δῶρα.
9 So the king of Assyria heeded him; for the king of Assyria went up against Damascus and took it, carried its people captive to Kir, and killed Rezin.
9 καὶ ἤκουσεν αὐτοῦ βασιλεὺς Ἀσσυρίων, καὶ ἀνέβη βασιλεὺς Ἀσσυρίων εἰς Δαμασκὸν καὶ συνέλαβεν αὐτὴν καὶ ἀπῴκισεν αὐτὴν καὶ τὸν Ραασσὼν βασιλέα ἐθανάτωσε.
10 Now 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 design of the altar and its pattern, according to all its workmanship.
10 καὶ ἐπορεύθη βασιλεὺς Ἄχαζ εἰς Δαμασκὸν εἰς ἀπαντὴν Θαγλαθφελλασὰρ βασιλεῖ Ἀσσυρίων εἰς Δαμασκόν. καὶ εἶδε τὸ θυσιαστήριον ἐν Δαμασκῶ, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἄχαζ πρὸς Οὐρίαν τὸν ἱερέα τὸ ὁμοίωμα τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ τὸν ρυθμὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσαν ποίησιν αὐτοῦ·
11 Then Urijah the priest built an altar according to all that King Ahaz had sent from Damascus. So Urijah the priest made it before King Ahaz came back from Damascus.
11 καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν Οὐρίας ὁ ἱερεὺς τὸ θυσιαστήριον κατὰ πάντα, ὅσα ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἄχαζ ἐκ Δαμασκοῦ.
12 And when the king came back from Damascus, the king saw the altar; and the king approached the altar and made offerings on it.
12 καὶ εἶδεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ ἀνέβη ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸ
13 So he burned his burnt offering and his grain offering; and he poured his drink offering and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings on the altar.
13 καὶ ἐθυμίασε τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν θυσίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν σπονδὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ προσέχεε τὸ αἷμα τῶν εἰρηνικῶν τῶν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον
14 He also brought the bronze altar which was before the LORD, from the front of the temple—from between the new altar and the house of the LORD—and put it on the north side of the new altar.
14 τὸ χαλκοῦν τὸ ἀπέναντι Κυρίου. καὶ προσήγαγε ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ οἴκου Κυρίου ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ οἴκου Κυρίου καὶ ἔδειξεν αὐτὸ ἐπὶ μηρὸν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου κατὰ βορρᾶν.
15 Then King Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, “On the great new altar burn the morning burnt offering, the evening grain offering, the king’s burnt sacrifice, and his grain offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, their grain offering, and their drink offerings; and sprinkle on it all the blood of the burnt offering and all the blood of the sacrifice. And the bronze altar shall be for me to inquire by.”
15 καὶ ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἄχαζ τῷ Οὐρίᾳ τῷ ἱερεῖ λέγων· ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ μέγα πρόσφερε τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν τὴν πρωϊνὴν καὶ τὴν θυσίαν τὴν ἑσπερινήν, καὶ τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ τὴν θυσίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ τὴν θυσίαν αὐτῶν καὶ τὴν σπονδὴν αὐτῶν καὶ πᾶν αἷμα ὁλοκαυτώσεως καὶ πᾶν αἷμα θυσίας ἐπ᾿ αὐτῷ ἐκχεεῖς· καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χαλκοῦν ἔσται μοι εἰς τὸ πρωΐ.
16 Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that King Ahaz commanded.
16 καὶ ἐποίησεν Οὐρίας ὁ ἱερεὺς κατὰ πάντα, ὅσα ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἄχαζ.
17 And King Ahaz cut off the panels of the carts, and removed the lavers from them; and he took down the Sea from the bronze oxen that were under it, and put it on a pavement of stones.
17 καὶ συνέκοψεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἄχαζ τὰ συγκλείσματα τῶν μεχωνὼθ καὶ μετῇρεν ἀπ᾿ αὐτῶν τὸν λουτῆρα καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν καθεῖλεν ἀπὸ τῶν βοῶν τῶν χαλκῶν τῶν ὑποκάτω αὐτῆς καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν ἐπὶ βάσιν λιθίνην.
18 Also he removed the Sabbath pavilion which they had built in the temple, and he removed the king’s outer entrance from the house of the LORD, on account of the king of Assyria.
18 καὶ τὸν θεμέλιον τῆς καθέδρας ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου καὶ τὴν εἴσοδον τοῦ βασιλέως τὴν ἔξω ἐπέστρεψεν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου ἀπὸ προσώπου βασιλέως Ἀσσυρίων.
19 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?
19 καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ἄχαζ, ὅσα ἐποίησεν, οὐχὶ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ἰούδα;
20 So Ahaz rested with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David. Then Hezekiah his son reigned in his place.
20 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἄχαζ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν πόλει Δαυίδ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἐζεκίας υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
