列王纪下 12
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
約阿施作猶大王(A)
12 耶戶在位第七年，約阿施登基，在耶路撒冷作王四十年。他母親名叫西比亞，是從別是巴來的。（本節在《馬索拉文本》為12:2） 2 在耶何耶大祭司教導他的日子，他就行耶和華看為正的事。 3 只是邱壇沒有廢去，人民仍在邱壇獻祭焚香。
下令重修聖殿(B)
4 約阿施對眾祭司說：“所有分別為聖，奉到耶和華殿裡的銀子，或是各被數點之人的贖價，或是各種的贖價，或是各人隨著心意，奉到耶和華殿裡的銀子， 5 各祭司可向自己熟悉的人收取。他們要修理殿內毀壞的地方，就是一切發現有毀壞的地方。”
6 可是到了約阿施王在位二十三年的時候，祭司還未修好聖殿毀壞的地方。 7 於是約阿施王召了耶何耶大祭司和眾祭司來，說：“你們為甚麼不修理聖殿毀壞的地方呢？現在不要向你們熟識的人收取銀子，卻要把所收的交出來，修理聖殿毀壞的地方。” 8 眾祭司答應不再從人民收取銀子，也不修理聖殿毀壞的地方。
9 耶何耶大祭司搬來了一個箱子，在它的頂上鑽了一個孔，把它放在祭壇旁邊，在聖殿入口的右邊。守門的祭司把奉到耶和華殿所有的銀子都投進箱裡。 10 他們看見箱內的銀子多起來的時候，就叫王的書記和大祭司上來，他們就數點在耶和華殿裡所得的銀子，裝在袋中。 11 他們把所稱的銀子交在耶和華殿中管理工匠的監工手裡，然後他們支付給在耶和華殿作工的木匠和建築工人， 12 以及泥匠和石匠；又用來購買木材和鑿好的石頭，來修理耶和華殿裡毀壞的地方，以及支付一切修理耶和華殿的開支。 13 但耶和華殿裡的銀杯、燭剪、碗、號或任何金銀器皿，都沒有用奉到耶和華殿裡的銀子來做。 14 他們只把銀子交給工匠，用來修理耶和華殿裡毀壞的地方。 15 他們沒有要求經手把銀子轉付工匠的人交代帳目，因為他們辦事誠實。 16 但是贖愆祭和贖罪祭的銀子，他們沒有奉入耶和華的殿，這些銀子是屬於祭司的。
亞蘭軍攻打猶大(C)
17 那時亞蘭王哈薛上來，攻打迦特，把它奪取了。他又決心上來攻打耶路撒冷。 18 猶大王約阿施於是拿出所有的聖物，就是他的祖先猶大王約沙法、約蘭和亞哈謝所獻的聖物，以及他自己所獻的聖物，還有耶和華殿和王宮寶庫裡所有的金子，送給亞蘭王哈薛，哈薛就離開耶路撒冷去了。
約阿施被殺(D)
19 約阿施其餘的事蹟和他所行的一切，不是都寫在猶大列王的年代誌上嗎？ 20 約阿施的臣僕起來背叛，他們在米羅宮內，他下到悉拉的時候，擊殺了他。 21 他的臣僕示米押的兒子約撒甲和朔默的兒子約薩拔擊殺他，他就死了。人把他埋葬在大衛城，和他的祖先在一起。他的兒子亞瑪謝接續他作王。
2 Kings 12
World English Bible
12 Jehoash began to reign in the seventh year of Jehu, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zibiah of Beersheba. 2 Jehoash did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes all his days in which Jehoiada the priest instructed him. 3 However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense in the high places.
4 Jehoash said to the priests, “All the money of the holy things that is brought into Yahweh’s house, in current money, the money of the people for whom each man is evaluated,(A) and all the money that it comes into any man’s heart to bring into Yahweh’s house, 5 let the priests take it to them, each man from his donor; and they shall repair the damage to the house, wherever any damage is found.”
6 But it was so, that in the twenty-third year of King Jehoash the priests had not repaired the damage to the house. 7 Then King Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and for the other priests, and said to them, “Why aren’t you repairing the damage to the house? Now therefore take no more money from your treasurers, but deliver it for repair of the damage to the house.”
8 The priests consented that they should take no more money from the people, and not repair the damage to the house. 9 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest and bored a hole in its lid, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one comes into Yahweh’s house; and the priests who kept the threshold put all the money that was brought into Yahweh’s house into it. 10 When they saw that there was much money in the chest, the king’s scribe and the high priest came up, and they put it in bags and counted the money that was found in Yahweh’s house. 11 They gave the money that was weighed out into the hands of those who did the work, who had the oversight of Yahweh’s house; and they paid it out to the carpenters and the builders who worked on Yahweh’s house, 12 and to the masons and the stone cutters, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the damage to Yahweh’s house, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it. 13 But there were not made for Yahweh’s house cups of silver, snuffers, basins, trumpets, any vessels of gold or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into Yahweh’s house; 14 for they gave that to those who did the work, and repaired Yahweh’s house with it. 15 Moreover they didn’t demand an accounting from the men into whose hand they delivered the money to give to those who did the work; for they dealt faithfully. 16 The money for the trespass offerings and the money for the sin offerings was not brought into Yahweh’s house. It was the priests’.
17 Then Hazael king of Syria went up and fought against Gath, and took it; and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem. 18 Jehoash king of Judah took all the holy things that Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own holy things, and all the gold that was found in the treasures of Yahweh’s house, and of the king’s house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria; and he went away from Jerusalem.
19 Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? 20 His servants arose and made a conspiracy, and struck Joash at the house of Millo, on the way that goes down to Silla. 21 For Jozacar the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, struck him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in David’s city; and Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
2 Kings 12
King James Version
12 In the seventh year of Jehu Jehoash began to reign; and forty years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.
2 And Jehoash did that which was right in the sight of the Lord all his days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him.
3 But the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
4 And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the dedicated things that is brought into the house of the Lord, even the money of every one that passeth the account, the money that every man is set at, and all the money that cometh into any man's heart to bring into the house of the Lord,
5 Let the priests take it to them, every man of his acquaintance: and let them repair the breaches of the house, wheresoever any breach shall be found.
6 But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.
7 Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said unto them, Why repair ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore receive no more money of your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house.
8 And the priests consented to receive no more money of the people, neither to repair the breaches of the house.
9 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of the Lord: and the priests that kept the door put therein all the money that was brought into the house of the Lord.
10 And it was so, when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags, and told the money that was found in the house of the Lord.
11 And they gave the money, being told, into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of the Lord: and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders, that wrought upon the house of the Lord,
12 And to masons, and hewers of stone, and to buy timber and hewed stone to repair the breaches of the house of the Lord, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it.
13 Howbeit there were not made for the house of the Lord bowls of silver, snuffers, basons, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of the Lord:
14 But they gave that to the workmen, and repaired therewith the house of the Lord.
15 Moreover they reckoned not with the men, into whose hand they delivered the money to be bestowed on workmen: for they dealt faithfully.
16 The trespass money and sin money was not brought into the house of the Lord: it was the priests'.
17 Then Hazael king of Syria went up, and fought against Gath, and took it: and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.
18 And Jehoash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things, and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria: and he went away from Jerusalem.
19 And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
20 And his servants arose, and made a conspiracy, and slew Joash in the house of Millo, which goeth down to Silla.
21 For Jozachar the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, smote him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
