Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
犹大王约阿施(A)
24 约阿施登基的时候年方七岁,在耶路撒冷作王四十年。他母亲名叫西比亚,是别是巴人。 2 耶何耶大祭司在世的日子,约阿施行耶和华眼中看为正的事。 3 耶何耶大为他娶了两个妻子,他生儿育女。
4 此后,约阿施有心重修耶和华的殿, 5 就召集祭司和利未人,吩咐他们说:“你们要往犹大各城去,向以色列众人征收银子,按每年的需要整修你们 神的殿;你们要急速办理这事。”但利未人没有急速办理。 6 王召了耶何耶大祭司长来,对他说:“从前耶和华的仆人摩西,为法柜的帐幕与以色列会众所定的捐献,你为何不叫利未人照这例向犹大和耶路撒冷征收呢?” 7 因为那恶妇亚她利雅的儿子们曾拆毁 神的殿,又用耶和华殿中分别为圣的物供奉诸巴力。
8 于是王下令造一个柜子,放在耶和华殿的门外, 9 又通告犹大和耶路撒冷,要将 神仆人摩西在旷野所吩咐以色列的捐献送来给耶和华。 10 众领袖和百姓都欢欢喜喜带捐献来,投入柜中,直到投满。 11 利未人见银子多了,把柜子抬到王所派的官长面前;这时王的书记和祭司长的助手就会来把柜子倒空,然后放回原处。日日都是这样做,积蓄的银子很多。 12 王与耶何耶大把银子交给耶和华殿里办事的人,他们就雇了石匠、木匠重修耶和华的殿,又雇了铁匠、铜匠整修耶和华的殿。 13 工人做工,修理工程在他们手中渐渐完成,他们将 神的殿修理得如同从前一样,非常坚固。 14 他们做完了,就把多余的银子拿到王与耶何耶大面前,用以制造耶和华殿供奉所用的器皿和调羹,以及金银的器皿。耶何耶大在世的日子,众人经常在耶和华殿里献燔祭。
15 耶何耶大年纪老迈,日子满足而死,死的时候年一百三十岁。 16 众人把他与列王同葬在大卫城,因为他在以色列中为 神和他的殿做了美善的事。
17 耶何耶大死后,犹大的众领袖来叩拜王,那时王就听了他们。 18 他们离弃耶和华—他们列祖 神的殿,去事奉亚舍拉和偶像;因他们这罪,就有愤怒临到犹大和耶路撒冷。 19 但 神仍差遣先知到他们那里,引导他们归向耶和华。先知警戒他们,他们却不肯听。
20 那时, 神的灵感动耶何耶大的儿子撒迦利亚祭司,他就站在上面,对百姓说:“ 神如此说:‘你们为何干犯耶和华的诫命,以致不得亨通呢?因为你们离弃耶和华,所以他也离弃你们。’” 21 众人谋害撒迦利亚,照着王的吩咐,在耶和华殿的院内用石头打死他。 22 这样,约阿施王不记念撒迦利亚的父亲耶何耶大向自己所施的恩,杀了他的儿子。撒迦利亚临死的时候说:“愿耶和华鉴察伸冤!”
约阿施被杀
23 年底的时候,亚兰的军兵上来攻击约阿施,来到犹大和耶路撒冷,杀了百姓中的众领袖,把所掠取的财物全送到大马士革王那里。 24 亚兰的军兵虽只来了一小队人,耶和华却将极大的军队交在他们手里;因为犹大人离弃耶和华—他们列祖的 神,所以亚兰人惩罚约阿施。
25 亚兰人离开约阿施的时候,他患重病[a];他的臣仆背叛他,要报耶何耶大祭司儿子[b]的流血之仇,在床上杀了他。他就死了,葬在大卫城,只是不葬在列王的坟墓里。 26 背叛他的是亚扪妇人示米押的儿子撒拔和摩押妇人示米利的儿子约萨拔。 27 至于他的儿子们和他所受的众多警戒,以及他重修 神殿的事,看哪,都写在《列王评传》上。他的儿子亚玛谢接续他作王。

犹大王约阿施
24 约阿施七岁登基,在耶路撒冷执政四十年。他母亲叫西比亚,是别示巴人。 2 耶何耶大祭司在世之日,约阿施做耶和华视为正的事。 3 耶何耶大为他娶了两个妻子,她们都为他生儿育女。
4 之后,约阿施有意整修耶和华的殿, 5 便召集祭司和利未人,对他们说:“你们到犹大各城去向所有以色列人征收银子,用来作每年整修你们上帝殿的费用。你们要立刻办理这事。”可是,利未人没有立刻办理。 6 王就召来耶何耶大大祭司,问他:“你为什么不吩咐利未人到耶路撒冷和犹大去收税呢?这税是耶和华的仆人摩西和以色列的会众定的,以备圣幕之用。” 7 因为恶妇亚她利雅的爪牙曾闯入耶和华上帝的殿,拿殿里的圣物去供奉巴力。
8 于是,王下令造一个箱子,放在耶和华殿的门外, 9 通告犹大和耶路撒冷的人民要将上帝的仆人摩西在旷野为以色列人定的税带来献给耶和华。 10 全体首领和民众都高高兴兴地把银子带来投进箱子里,直到箱子满了。 11 利未人见箱子满了,就抬到王的官员那里。王的书记和大祭司的属下会把箱子倒空,然后把箱子放回原处。日复一日,他们收了很多银子。 12 王与耶何耶大把银子交给耶和华殿里的办事人员,他们就雇用石匠、木匠、铁匠和铜匠来整修耶和华的殿。 13 工人辛勤整修,工程进展顺利,上帝的殿恢复了原貌,而且非常坚固。 14 完工后,他们把剩余的银子交给王与耶何耶大,这些银子被用来制造耶和华殿里的器具:供奉和献祭用的器皿、碟子和其他金银器皿。耶何耶大在世之日,民众常在耶和华的殿里献燔祭。
耶何耶大的政策被废弃
15 耶何耶大寿终正寝,享年一百三十岁。 16 民众把他葬在大卫城的王陵里,因为他在以色列为上帝和上帝的殿做了美善的事。
17 耶何耶大死后,犹大众首领来朝拜王,王对他们言听计从。 18 他们离弃他们祖先的上帝耶和华的殿,去供奉亚舍拉神像及其他偶像。因他们所犯的罪,上帝的烈怒临到犹大和耶路撒冷。 19 但耶和华仍然派先知到他们中间,引导他们归向祂。先知警告他们,他们却不听。
20 上帝的灵感动了耶何耶大祭司的儿子撒迦利亚,他便站在高处对民众说:“耶和华上帝这样说,‘你们为什么违反耶和华的诫命,以致不得亨通呢?既然你们背弃我,我也必离弃你们。’” 21 他们想谋害撒迦利亚,就照着王的命令,在耶和华殿的院子里用石头打死了他。 22 约阿施王不但不顾念撒迦利亚的父亲耶何耶大对他的恩惠,还杀死了耶何耶大的儿子。撒迦利亚临死的时候说:“愿耶和华鉴察,为我申冤!”
约阿施被杀
23 当年年底,亚兰的军兵前来攻击约阿施,入侵犹大和耶路撒冷,杀了民众的所有首领,把战利品全都送到大马士革王那里。 24 虽然亚兰军只来了一小队,但耶和华把大队的犹大军兵交在他们手中,以惩罚约阿施,因为犹大人背弃了他们祖先的上帝耶和华。
25 亚兰人退兵的时候,约阿施受了重伤,他的臣仆叛变,把他杀死在床上,为耶何耶大祭司的儿子报了血仇。约阿施死后葬在大卫城,但没有葬在王陵里。 26 杀他的是亚扪妇人示米押的儿子撒拔和摩押妇人示米利的儿子约萨拔。 27 至于约阿施的众子、他所受的警告以及他整修上帝殿的事都记在列王史上。他儿子亚玛谢继位。

猶大王約阿施
24 約阿施七歲登基,在耶路撒冷執政四十年。他母親叫西比亞,是別示巴人。 2 耶何耶大祭司在世之日,約阿施做耶和華視為正的事。 3 耶何耶大為他娶了兩個妻子,她們都為他生兒育女。
4 之後,約阿施有意整修耶和華的殿, 5 便召集祭司和利未人,對他們說:「你們到猶大各城去向所有以色列人徵收銀子,用來作每年整修你們上帝殿的費用。你們要立刻辦理這事。」可是,利未人沒有立刻辦理。 6 王就召來耶何耶大大祭司,問他:「你為什麼不吩咐利未人到耶路撒冷和猶大去收稅呢?這稅是耶和華的僕人摩西和以色列的會眾定的,以備聖幕之用。」 7 因為惡婦亞她利雅的爪牙曾闖入耶和華上帝的殿,拿殿裡的聖物去供奉巴力。
8 於是,王下令造一個箱子,放在耶和華殿的門外, 9 通告猶大和耶路撒冷的人民要將上帝的僕人摩西在曠野為以色列人定的稅帶來獻給耶和華。 10 全體首領和民眾都高高興興地把銀子帶來投進箱子裡,直到箱子滿了。 11 利未人見箱子滿了,就抬到王的官員那裡。王的書記和大祭司的屬下會把箱子倒空,然後把箱子放回原處。日復一日,他們收了很多銀子。 12 王與耶何耶大把銀子交給耶和華殿裡的辦事人員,他們就雇用石匠、木匠、鐵匠和銅匠來整修耶和華的殿。 13 工人辛勤整修,工程進展順利,上帝的殿恢復了原貌,而且非常堅固。 14 完工後,他們把剩餘的銀子交給王與耶何耶大,這些銀子被用來製造耶和華殿裡的器具:供奉和獻祭用的器皿、碟子和其他金銀器皿。耶何耶大在世之日,民眾常在耶和華的殿裡獻燔祭。
耶何耶大的政策被廢棄
15 耶何耶大壽終正寢,享年一百三十歲。 16 民眾把他葬在大衛城的王陵裡,因為他在以色列為上帝和上帝的殿做了美善的事。
17 耶何耶大死後,猶大眾首領來朝拜王,王對他們言聽計從。 18 他們離棄他們祖先的上帝耶和華的殿,去供奉亞舍拉神像及其他偶像。因他們所犯的罪,上帝的烈怒臨到猶大和耶路撒冷。 19 但耶和華仍然派先知到他們中間,引導他們歸向祂。先知警告他們,他們卻不聽。
20 上帝的靈感動了耶何耶大祭司的兒子撒迦利亞,他便站在高處對民眾說:「耶和華上帝這樣說,『你們為什麼違反耶和華的誡命,以致不得亨通呢?既然你們背棄我,我也必離棄你們。』」 21 他們想謀害撒迦利亞,就照著王的命令,在耶和華殿的院子裡用石頭打死了他。 22 約阿施王不但不顧念撒迦利亞的父親耶何耶大對他的恩惠,還殺死了耶何耶大的兒子。撒迦利亞臨死的時候說:「願耶和華鑒察,為我伸冤!」
約阿施被殺
23 當年年底,亞蘭的軍兵前來攻擊約阿施,入侵猶大和耶路撒冷,殺了民眾的所有首領,把戰利品全都送到大馬士革王那裡。 24 雖然亞蘭軍只來了一小隊,但耶和華把大隊的猶大軍兵交在他們手中,以懲罰約阿施,因為猶大人背棄了他們祖先的上帝耶和華。
25 亞蘭人退兵的時候,約阿施受了重傷,他的臣僕叛變,把他殺死在床上,為耶何耶大祭司的兒子報了血仇。約阿施死後葬在大衛城,但沒有葬在王陵裡。 26 殺他的是亞捫婦人示米押的兒子撒拔和摩押婦人示米利的兒子約薩拔。 27 至於約阿施的眾子、他所受的警告以及他整修上帝殿的事都記在列王史上。他兒子亞瑪謝繼位。
2 Chronicles 24
King James Version
24 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Zibiah of Beersheba.
2 And Joash did that which was right in the sight of the Lord all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
3 And Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he begat sons and daughters.
4 And it came to pass after this, that Joash was minded to repair the house of the Lord.
5 And he gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather of all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that ye hasten the matter. Howbeit the Levites hastened it not.
6 And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection, according to the commandment of Moses the servant of the Lord, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness?
7 For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up the house of God; and also all the dedicated things of the house of the Lord did they bestow upon Baalim.
8 And at the king's commandment they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the Lord.
9 And they made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in to the Lord the collection that Moses the servant of God laid upon Israel in the wilderness.
10 And all the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end.
11 Now it came to pass, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king's office by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king's scribe and the high priest's officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to his place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
12 And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the Lord, and hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the Lord, and also such as wrought iron and brass to mend the house of the Lord.
13 So the workmen wrought, and the work was perfected by them, and they set the house of God in his state, and strengthened it.
14 And when they had finished it, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, whereof were made vessels for the house of the Lord, even vessels to minister, and to offer withal, and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Jehoiada.
15 But Jehoiada waxed old, and was full of days when he died; an hundred and thirty years old was he when he died.
16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward God, and toward his house.
17 Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened unto them.
18 And they left the house of the Lord God of their fathers, and served groves and idols: and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their trespass.
19 Yet he sent prophets to them, to bring them again unto the Lord; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear.
20 And the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, which stood above the people, and said unto them, Thus saith God, Why transgress ye the commandments of the Lord, that ye cannot prosper? because ye have forsaken the Lord, he hath also forsaken you.
21 And they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of the Lord.
22 Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, The Lord look upon it, and require it.
23 And it came to pass at the end of the year, that the host of Syria came up against him: and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoil of them unto the king of Damascus.
24 For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men, and the Lord delivered a very great host into their hand, because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers. So they executed judgment against Joash.
25 And when they were departed from him, (for they left him in great diseases,) his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchres of the kings.
26 And these are they that conspired against him; Zabad the son of Shimeath an Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith a Moabitess.
27 Now concerning his sons, and the greatness of the burdens laid upon him, and the repairing of the house of God, behold, they are written in the story of the book of the kings. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
