2 Reyes 15
Nueva Traducción Viviente
Uzías gobierna sobre Judá
15 Uzías,[a] hijo de Amasías, comenzó a gobernar Judá durante el año veintisiete del reinado de Jeroboam II, en Israel. 2 Tenía dieciséis años cuando subió al trono y reinó en Jerusalén cincuenta y dos años. Su madre se llamaba Jecolías y era de Jerusalén.
3 El rey hizo lo que era agradable a los ojos del Señor, así como su padre Amasías. 4 Sin embargo, no destruyó los santuarios paganos, y la gente siguió ofreciendo sacrificios y quemando incienso allí. 5 El Señor hirió al rey con lepra,[b] enfermedad que le duró hasta el día de su muerte; y vivió aislado en una casa aparte. Su hijo Jotam quedó encargado del palacio real y él gobernaba a los habitantes del reino.
6 Los demás acontecimientos del reinado de Uzías y todo lo que hizo están registrados en El libro de la historia de los reyes de Judá. 7 Cuando Uzías murió, lo enterraron con sus antepasados en la Ciudad de David; y su hijo Jotam lo sucedió en el trono.
Zacarías gobierna sobre Israel
8 Zacarías, hijo de Jeroboam II, comenzó a gobernar Israel durante el año treinta y ocho del reinado de Uzías en Judá, y reinó en Samaria seis meses. 9 Zacarías hizo lo malo a los ojos del Señor, igual que sus antepasados. Se negó a apartarse de los pecados que Jeroboam, hijo de Nabat, hizo cometer a Israel. 10 Entonces Salum, hijo de Jabes, conspiró contra Zacarías, lo asesinó en público[c] y ocupó el trono en su lugar.
11 Los demás acontecimientos del reinado de Zacarías están registrados en El libro de la historia de los reyes de Israel. 12 Así se cumplió el mensaje que el Señor le había dado a Jehú cuando dijo: «Tus descendientes serán reyes de Israel hasta la cuarta generación».
Salum gobierna sobre Israel
13 Salum, hijo de Jabes, comenzó a gobernar Israel durante el año treinta y nueve del reinado de Uzías en Judá, y reinó en Samaria solamente un mes. 14 Manahem, hijo de Gadi, llegó a Samaria desde Tirsa, lo asesinó, y ocupó el trono en su lugar.
15 Los demás acontecimientos del reinado de Salum, incluso su conspiración, están registrados en El libro de la historia de los reyes de Israel.
Manahem gobierna sobre Israel
16 En esos días, Manahem destruyó la ciudad de Tapúa[d] y todos sus alrededores hasta Tirsa, porque sus habitantes se negaron a entregar la ciudad. Mató a toda la población y les abrió el vientre a las mujeres embarazadas.
17 Manahem, hijo de Gadi, comenzó a gobernar Israel durante el año treinta y nueve del reinado de Uzías en Judá, y reinó en Samaria diez años. 18 Manahem hizo lo malo a los ojos del Señor. Durante todo su reinado, se negó a apartarse de los pecados que Jeroboam, hijo de Nabat, hizo cometer a Israel.
19 Entonces Tiglat-pileser,[e] rey de Asiria, invadió la nación; pero Manahem le pagó treinta y cuatro toneladas[f] de plata con el fin de obtener su apoyo para afianzar su soberanía real. 20 Para conseguir el dinero, Manahem extorsionó a los ricos de Israel obligando a que cada uno le pagara cincuenta piezas[g] de plata al rey de Asiria. Por eso el rey de Asiria dejó de invadir Israel y se retiró del país.
21 Los demás acontecimientos del reinado de Manahem y todo lo que hizo están registrados en El libro de la historia de los reyes de Israel. 22 Cuando Manahem murió, su hijo Pekaía lo sucedió en el trono.
Pekaía gobierna sobre Israel
23 Pekaía, hijo de Manahem, comenzó a gobernar Israel durante el año cincuenta del reinado de Uzías en Judá y reinó en Samaria dos años. 24 Pekaía hizo lo malo a los ojos del Señor. Se negó a apartarse de los pecados que Jeroboam, hijo de Nabat, hizo cometer a Israel.
25 Entonces Peka, hijo de Remalías, comandante del ejército de Pekaía, conspiró contra el rey. Con el apoyo de cincuenta hombres de Galaad, Peka asesinó al rey, y también a Argob y a Arie, en la ciudadela del palacio de Samaria; y Peka ocupó el trono en su lugar.
26 Los demás acontecimientos del reinado de Pekaía y todo lo que hizo están registrados en El libro de la historia de los reyes de Israel.
Peka gobierna sobre Israel
27 Peka, hijo de Remalías, comenzó a gobernar Israel durante el año cincuenta y dos del reinado de Uzías en Judá, y reinó en Samaria veinte años. 28 Peka hizo lo malo a los ojos del Señor. Se negó a apartarse de los pecados que Jeroboam, hijo de Nabat, hizo cometer a Israel.
29 Durante el reinado de Peka, el rey Tiglat-pileser de Asiria volvió a atacar a Israel y tomó las ciudades de Ijón, Abel-bet-maaca, Janoa, Cedes y Hazor. También conquistó las regiones de Galaad, Galilea, y todo el territorio de Neftalí; y a los habitantes los llevó cautivos a Asiria. 30 Entonces Oseas, hijo de Ela, conspiró contra Peka y lo asesinó. Oseas comenzó a gobernar Israel durante el año veinte de Jotam, hijo de Uzías.
31 Los demás acontecimientos del reinado de Peka y todo lo que hizo están registrados en El libro de la historia de los reyes de Israel.
Jotam gobierna sobre Judá
32 Jotam, hijo de Uzías, comenzó a gobernar Judá durante el segundo año del reinado de Peka, en Israel. 33 Tenía veinticinco años cuando subió al trono y reinó en Jerusalén dieciséis años. Su madre se llamaba Jerusa y era hija de Sadoc.
34 Jotam hizo lo que era agradable a los ojos del Señor. Hizo todo lo que había hecho su padre Uzías; 35 pero no destruyó los santuarios paganos, y la gente seguía ofreciendo sacrificios y quemando incienso allí. Él reconstruyó la puerta superior del templo del Señor.
36 Los demás acontecimientos del reinado de Jotam y todo lo que hizo están registrados en El libro de la historia de los reyes de Judá. 37 En esos días, el Señor comenzó a enviar contra Judá al rey Rezín de Aram y al rey Peka de Israel. 38 Cuando Jotam murió, lo enterraron con sus antepasados en la Ciudad de David, y su hijo Acaz lo sucedió en el trono.

2 Kings 15
New International Version
Azariah King of Judah(A)
15 In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Azariah[a](B) son of Amaziah king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-two years. His mother’s name was Jekoliah; she was from Jerusalem. 3 He did what was right(C) in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father Amaziah had done. 4 The high places, however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there.
5 The Lord afflicted(D) the king with leprosy[b] until the day he died, and he lived in a separate house.[c](E) Jotham(F) the king’s son had charge of the palace(G) and governed the people of the land.
6 As for the other events of Azariah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 7 Azariah rested(H) with his ancestors and was buried near them in the City of David. And Jotham(I) his son succeeded him as king.
Zechariah King of Israel
8 In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah, Zechariah son of Jeroboam became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned six months. 9 He did evil(J) in the eyes of the Lord, as his predecessors had done. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit.
10 Shallum son of Jabesh conspired against Zechariah. He attacked him in front of the people,[d] assassinated(K) him and succeeded him as king. 11 The other events of Zechariah’s reign are written in the book of the annals(L) of the kings of Israel. 12 So the word of the Lord spoken to Jehu was fulfilled:(M) “Your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.”[e]
Shallum King of Israel
13 Shallum son of Jabesh became king in the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah king of Judah, and he reigned in Samaria(N) one month. 14 Then Menahem son of Gadi went from Tirzah(O) up to Samaria. He attacked Shallum son of Jabesh in Samaria, assassinated(P) him and succeeded him as king.
15 The other events of Shallum’s reign, and the conspiracy he led, are written in the book of the annals(Q) of the kings of Israel.
16 At that time Menahem, starting out from Tirzah, attacked Tiphsah(R) and everyone in the city and its vicinity, because they refused to open(S) their gates. He sacked Tiphsah and ripped open all the pregnant women.
Menahem King of Israel
17 In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem son of Gadi became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria ten years. 18 He did evil(T) in the eyes of the Lord. During his entire reign he did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit.
19 Then Pul[f](U) king of Assyria invaded the land, and Menahem gave him a thousand talents[g] of silver to gain his support and strengthen his own hold on the kingdom. 20 Menahem exacted this money from Israel. Every wealthy person had to contribute fifty shekels[h] of silver to be given to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria withdrew(V) and stayed in the land no longer.
21 As for the other events of Menahem’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel? 22 Menahem rested with his ancestors. And Pekahiah his son succeeded him as king.
Pekahiah King of Israel
23 In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekahiah son of Menahem became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned two years. 24 Pekahiah did evil(W) in the eyes of the Lord. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit. 25 One of his chief officers, Pekah(X) son of Remaliah, conspired against him. Taking fifty men of Gilead with him, he assassinated(Y) Pekahiah, along with Argob and Arieh, in the citadel of the royal palace at Samaria. So Pekah killed Pekahiah and succeeded him as king.
26 The other events of Pekahiah’s reign, and all he did, are written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel.
Pekah King of Israel
27 In the fifty-second year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekah(Z) son of Remaliah(AA) became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned twenty years. 28 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit.
29 In the time of Pekah king of Israel, Tiglath-Pileser(AB) king of Assyria came and took Ijon,(AC) Abel Beth Maakah, Janoah, Kedesh and Hazor. He took Gilead and Galilee, including all the land of Naphtali,(AD) and deported(AE) the people to Assyria. 30 Then Hoshea(AF) son of Elah conspired against Pekah son of Remaliah. He attacked and assassinated(AG) him, and then succeeded him as king in the twentieth year of Jotham son of Uzziah.
31 As for the other events of Pekah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals(AH) of the kings of Israel?
Jotham King of Judah(AI)
32 In the second year of Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel, Jotham(AJ) son of Uzziah king of Judah began to reign. 33 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s name was Jerusha daughter of Zadok. 34 He did what was right(AK) in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father Uzziah had done. 35 The high places,(AL) however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there. Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate(AM) of the temple of the Lord.
36 As for the other events of Jotham’s reign, and what he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 37 (In those days the Lord began to send Rezin(AN) king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah against Judah.) 38 Jotham rested with his ancestors and was buried with them in the City of David, the city of his father. And Ahaz his son succeeded him as king.

King James Version
15 In the twenty and seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel began Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah to reign.
2 Sixteen years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned two and fifty years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jecholiah of Jerusalem.
3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Amaziah had done;
4 Save that the high places were not removed: the people sacrificed and burnt incense still on the high places.
5 And the Lord smote the king, so that he was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a several house. And Jotham the king's son was over the house, judging the people of the land.
6 And the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
7 So Azariah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
8 In the thirty and eighth year of Azariah king of Judah did Zachariah the son of Jeroboam reign over Israel in Samaria six months.
9 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as his fathers had done: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.
10 And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and smote him before the people, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.
11 And the rest of the acts of Zachariah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
12 This was the word of the Lord which he spake unto Jehu, saying, Thy sons shall sit on the throne of Israel unto the fourth generation. And so it came to pass.
13 Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the nine and thirtieth year of Uzziah king of Judah; and he reigned a full month in Samaria.
14 For Menahem the son of Gadi went up from Tirzah, and came to Samaria, and smote Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.
15 And the rest of the acts of Shallum, and his conspiracy which he made, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
16 Then Menahem smote Tiphsah, and all that were therein, and the coasts thereof from Tirzah: because they opened not to him, therefore he smote it; and all the women therein that were with child he ripped up.
17 In the nine and thirtieth year of Azariah king of Judah began Menahem the son of Gadi to reign over Israel, and reigned ten years in Samaria.
18 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.
19 And Pul the king of Assyria came against the land: and Menahem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver, that his hand might be with him to confirm the kingdom in his hand.
20 And Menahem exacted the money of Israel, even of all the mighty men of wealth, of each man fifty shekels of silver, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back, and stayed not there in the land.
21 And the rest of the acts of Menahem, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
22 And Menahem slept with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son reigned in his stead.
23 In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekahiah the son of Menahem began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned two years.
24 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.
25 But Pekah the son of Remaliah, a captain of his, conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the palace of the king's house, with Argob and Arieh, and with him fifty men of the Gileadites: and he killed him, and reigned in his room.
26 And the rest of the acts of Pekahiah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
27 In the two and fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekah the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned twenty years.
28 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.
29 In the days of Pekah king of Israel came Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, and took Ijon, and Abelbethmaachah, and Janoah, and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali, and carried them captive to Assyria.
30 And Hoshea the son of Elah made a conspiracy against Pekah the son of Remaliah, and smote him, and slew him, and reigned in his stead, in the twentieth year of Jotham the son of Uzziah.
31 And the rest of the acts of Pekah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
32 In the second year of Pekah the son of Remaliah king of Israel began Jotham the son of Uzziah king of Judah to reign.
33 Five and twenty years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.
34 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord: he did according to all that his father Uzziah had done.
35 Howbeit the high places were not removed: the people sacrificed and burned incense still in the high places. He built the higher gate of the house of the Lord.
36 Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
37 In those days the Lord began to send against Judah Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah.
38 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
