1 Joashwasseven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also wasZibiahof Beer-sheba. 2 And Joashdid that which wasright in the sight of the LORDall the days of Jehoiadathe priest. 3 And Jehoiadatook for him two wives; and he begat sons and daughters.
4 And it came to pass after this, thatJoashwas minded to repair the house of the LORD.24.4 to repair: Heb. to renew5 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 itnot. 6 And the king called for Jehoiadathe chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalemthe collection, according to the commandmentof Mosesthe 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 LORDdid 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 LORDthe collection thatMosesthe servant of God laidupon Israel in the wilderness.24.9 a proclamation: Heb. a voice10 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 wasmuch 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 Jehoiadagave 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.24.13 the work…: Heb. the healing went up upon the work14 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, evenvessels to minister, and to offer withal, and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORDcontinually all the days of Jehoiada.24.14 to offer…: or, pestils
15 But Jehoiadawaxed old, and was full of days when he died; an hundred and thirty years old was hewhen he died. 16 And they buried him in the city of Davidamong the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward God, and toward his house. 17 Now after the death of Jehoiadacame the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened unto them. 18 And they left the house of the LORDGod of their fathers, and served groves and idols: and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalemfor 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 Zechariahthe son of Jehoiadathe 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.24.20 came…: Heb. clothed21 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 Joashthe king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiadahis father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, The LORDlook upon it, and require it.
23 And it came to pass at the end of the year, thatthe host of Syriacame 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.24.23 at the…: Heb. in the revolution of the year24.23 Damascus: Heb. Darmesek24 For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men, and the LORDdelivered a very great host into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORDGod 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 Jehoiadathe 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; Zabadthe son of Shimeathan Ammonitess, and Jehozabadthe son of Shimritha Moabitess.24.26 Zabad: or, Jozacher24.26 Shimrith: or, Shomer
