1 In the seventeenth year of Phakee son of Romelias began Achaz the son of Joatham king of Juda to reign. 2 Twenty years old was Achaz when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and he did not that which was right in the eyes of the Lord his God faithfully, as David his father [had done]. 3 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yea, he made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen whom the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel. 4 And he sacrificed and burnt incense on the high places, and upon the hills, and under every shady tree. 5 Then went up Raasson king of Syria and Phakee son of Romelias king of Israel against Jerusalem to war, and besieged Achaz, but could not prevail [against him]. 6 At that time Raasson king of Syria recovered Aelath to Syria, and drove out the Jews from Aelath, and the Idumeans came to Aelath, and dwelt there until this day. 7 And Achaz sent messengers to Thalgath-phellasar king of the Assyrians, saying, I am thy servant and thy son: come up, deliver me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who are rising up against me. 8 And Achaz took the silver and the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and of the king’s house, and sent gifts to the king. 9 And the king of the Assyrians hearkened to him: and the king of the Assyrians went up to Damascus and took it, and removed the inhabitants, and slew king Raasson. 10 And king Achaz went to Damascus to meet Thalgath-phellasar king of the Assyrians at Damascus; and he saw an altar at Damascus. And king Achaz sent to Urias the priest the pattern of the altar, and its proportions, and all its workmanship. 11 And Urias the priest built the altar, according to all [the directions] which king Achaz sent from Damascus. 12 And the king saw the altar, and went up to it, 13 and offered his whole-burnt-offering, and his meat-offering, and his drink-offering, and poured out the blood of his peace-offerings on the brazen altar that was before the Lord. 14 And he brought forward [the one] before the house of the Lord from between the altar and the house of the Lord, and he set it openly by the side of the altar northwards. 15 And king Achaz charged Urias the priest, saying, Offer upon the great altar the whole-burnt-offering in the morning and the meat-offering in the evening, and the whole-burnt-offering of the king, and his meat-offering, and the whole-burnt-offering of all the people, and their meat-offering, and their drink-offering; and thou shalt pour all the blood of the whole-burnt-offering, and all the blood of [any other] sacrifice upon it: and the brazen altar shall be for me in the morning. 16 And Urias the priest did according to all that king Achaz commanded him. 17 And king Achaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them, and took down the sea from the brazen oxen that were under it, and set it upon a base of stone. 18 And he made a base for the throne in the house of the Lord, and he turned the king’s entrance without in the house of the Lord because of the king of the Assyrians. 19 And the rest of the acts of Achaz, even all that he did, [are] not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda? 20 And Achaz slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Ezekias his son reigned in his stead. ΕΝ ἔτει ἑπτακαιδεκάτῳ Φακεὲ υἱοῦ Ῥομελίου ἐβασίλευσεν ῎Αχαζ υἱὸς ᾿Ιωάθαμ βασιλέως ᾿Ιούδα. 2 υἱὸς εἴκοσιν ἐτῶν ἦν ῎Αχαζ ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν καὶ ἑκκαίδεκα ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν ῾Ιερουσαλήμ. καὶ οὐκ ἐποίησε τὸ εὐθὲς ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου Θεοῦ αὐτοῦ πιστῶς, ὡς Δαυὶδ ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ 3 καὶ ἐπορεύθη, ἐν ὁδῷ βασιλέων ᾿Ισραήλ, καί γε τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ διῆγεν ἐν πυρὶ κατὰ τὰ βδελύγματα τῶν ἐθνῶν, ὧν ἐξῇρε Κύριος ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν υἱῶν ᾿Ισραήλ, 4 καὶ ἐθυσίαζε καὶ ἐθυμία ἐν τοῖς ὑψηλοῖς καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν βουνῶν καὶ ὑποκάτω παντὸς ξύλου ἀλσώδους. 5 τότε ἀνέβη Ῥαασσὼν βασιλεὺς Συρίας καὶ Φακεὲ υἱὸς Ῥομελίου βασιλεὺς ᾿Ισραὴλ εἰς ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ εἰς πόλεμον καὶ ἐπολιόρκουν ἐπὶ ῎Αχαζ καὶ οὐκ ἠδύναντο πολεμεῖν. 6 ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἐπέστρεψε Ῥαασσὼν βασιλεὺς Συρίας τὴν Αἰλὰθ τῇ Συρίᾳ καὶ ἐξέβαλε τοὺς ᾿Ιουδαίους ἐξ Αἰλὰθ καὶ ᾿Ιδουμαῖοι ἦλθον εἰς Αἰλὰθ καὶ κατῴκησαν ἐκεῖ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης. 7 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ῎Αχαζ ἀγγέλους πρὸς Θαγλαθφελλασὰρ βασιλέα ᾿Ασσυρίων λέγων· δοῦλός σου καὶ υἱός σου ἐγώ, ἀνάβηθι καὶ σῶσόν με ἐκ χειρὸς βασιλέως Συρίας καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς βασιλέως ᾿Ισραὴλ τῶν ἐπανισταμένων ἐπ᾿ ἐμέ. 8 καὶ ἔλαβεν ῎Αχαζ ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον τὸ εὑρεθὲν ἐν θησαυροῖς οἴκου Κυρίου καὶ οἴκου βασιλέως καὶ ἀπέστειλε τῷ βασιλεῖ δῶρα. 9 καὶ ἤκουσεν αὐτοῦ βασιλεὺς ᾿Ασσυρίων, καὶ ἀνέβη βασιλεὺς ᾿Ασσυρίων εἰς Δαμασκὸν καὶ συνέλαβεν αὐτὴν καὶ ἀπῴκισεν αὐτὴν καὶ τὸν Ῥαασσὼν βασιλέα ἐθανάτωσε. 10 καὶ ἐπορεύθη βασιλεὺς ῎Αχαζ εἰς Δαμασκὸν εἰς ἀπαντὴν Θαγλαθφελλασὰρ βασιλεῖ ᾿Ασσυρίων εἰς Δαμασκόν. καὶ εἶδε τὸ θυσιαστήριον ἐν Δαμασκῶ, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς ῎Αχαζ πρὸς Οὐρίαν τὸν ἱερέα τὸ ὁμοίωμα τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ τὸν ῥυθμὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσαν ποίησιν αὐτοῦ· 11 καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν Οὐρίας ὁ ἱερεὺς τὸ θυσιαστήριον κατὰ πάντα, ὅσα ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς ῎Αχαζ ἐκ Δαμασκοῦ. 12 καὶ εἶδεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ ἀνέβη ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸ 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 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 καὶ ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεὺς ῎Αχαζ 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 καὶ ἐποίησεν Οὐρίας ὁ ἱερεὺς κατὰ πάντα, ὅσα ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεὺς ῎Αχαζ. 17 καὶ συνέκοψεν ὁ βασιλεὺς ῎Αχαζ 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 καὶ τὸν θεμέλιον τῆς καθέδρας ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου καὶ τὴν εἴσοδον τοῦ βασιλέως τὴν ἔξω ἐπέστρεψεν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου ἀπὸ προσώπου βασιλέως ᾿Ασσυρίων. 19 καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων ῎Αχαζ, ὅσα ἐποίησεν, οὐχὶ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν ᾿Ιούδα; 20 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη ῎Αχαζ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν πόλει Δαυίδ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ᾿Εζεκίας υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
