Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1In the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah king of Judah Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned seventeen years.
1Ἐν ἔτει εἰκοστῷ καὶ τρίτῳ ἔτει τῷ Ἰωὰς υἱῷ Ὀχοζίου βασιλεῖ Ἰούδα ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωάχαζ υἱὸς Ἰοὺ ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ ἑπτακαίδεκα ἔτη.
2And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD , and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.
2Καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου, καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὀπίσω ἁμαρτιῶν Ἱεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβὰτ, ὃς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ, οὐκ ἀπέστη ἀπʼ αὐτῆς.
3¶ And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael, all their days.
3Καὶ ὠργίσθη θυμῷ Κύριος ἐν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοὺς ἐν χειρὶ Ἀζαὴλ βασιλέως Συρίας, καὶ ἐν χειρὶ υἱοῦ Ἄδερ υἱοῦ Ἀζαὴλ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας.
4And Jehoahaz besought the LORD , and the LORD hearkened unto him: for he saw the oppression of Israel, because the king of Syria oppressed them.
4Καὶ ἐδεήθη Ἰωάχαζ τοῦ προσώπου Κυρίου, καὶ ἐπήκουσεν αὐτοῦ Κύριος, ὅτι εἶδε τὴν θλίψιν Ἰσραὴλ, ὅτι ἔθλιψεν αὐτοὺς βασιλεὺς Συρίας.
5(And the LORD gave Israel a saviour, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians: and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents, as beforetime.
5Καὶ ἔδωκε Κύριος σωτηρίαν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὑποκάτωθεν χειρὸς Συρίας· καὶ ἐκάθισαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τοῖς σκηνώμασιν αὐτῶν καθὼς ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτης.
6Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel sin, but walked therein: and there remained the grove also in Samaria.)
6Πλὴν οὐκ ἀπέστησαν ἀπὸ ἁμαρτιῶν οἴκου Ἱεροβοὰμ ὃς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ, ἐν αὐτῇ ἐπορεύθη· καὶ γε τὸ ἄλσος ἐστάθη ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ.
7Neither did he leave of the people to Jehoahaz but fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria had destroyed them, and had made them like the dust by threshing.
7Ὅτι οὐχ ὑπελείφθη τῷ Ἰωάχαζ λαὸς, ἀλλʼ ἢ πεντήκοντα ἱππεῖς καὶ δέκα ἅρματα καὶ δέκα χιλιάδες πεζῶν, ὅτι ἀπώλεσεν αὐτοὺς βασιλεὺ Συρίας, καὶ ἔθεντο αὐτοὺς ὡς χοῦν εἰς καταπάτησιν.
8¶ Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
8Καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ἰωάχαζ καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησε καὶ αἱ δυναστεῖαι αὐτοῦ, οὐχὶ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ἰσραήλ;
9And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son reigned in his stead.
9Καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἰωάχαζ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ· καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωὰς υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντʼ αὐτοῦ.
10¶ In the thirty and seventh year of Joash king of Judah began Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned sixteen years.
10Ἐν ἔτει τριακοστῷ καὶ ἑβδόμῳ ἔτει τῷ Ἰωὰς βασιλεῖ Ἰούδα ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωὰς υἱὸς Ἰωάχαζ ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ ἑκκαίδεκα ἔτη.
11And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD ; he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin: but he walked therein.
11Καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου· οὐκ ἀπέστη ἀπὸ πάσης Ἰεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβὰτ ἁμαρτίας, ὃς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ· ἐν αὐτῇ ἐπορεύθη.
12And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might wherewith he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
12Καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ἰωὰς καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησε, καὶ αἱ δυναστεῖαι αὐτοῦ ἃς ἐποίησε μετὰ Ἀμεσσίου βασιλέως Ἰούδα, οὐχὶ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ἰσραήλ;
13And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat upon his throne: and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
13Καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἰωὰς μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ, καὶ Ἰεροβοὰμ ἐκάθισεν ἐτὶ τοῦ θρόνου αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ μετὰ τῶν βασιλέων Ἰσραήλ.
14¶ Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof.
14Καὶ Ἑλισαιὲ ἠῤῥώστησε τὴν ἀῤῥωστίαν αὐτοῦ, διʼ ἣν ἀπέθανε· καὶ κατέβη πρὸς αὐτὸν Ἰωὰς βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἔκλαυσεν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπε, πάτερ πάτερ, ἅρμα Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἱππεὺς αὐτοῦ.
15And Elisha said unto him, Take bow and arrows. And he took unto him bow and arrows.
15Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἐλισαιὲ, λάβε τόξον καὶ βέλη· καὶ ἔλαβε πρὸς ἑαυτὸν τόξον καὶ βέλη.
16And he said to the king of Israel, Put thine hand upon the bow. And he put his hand upon it: and Elisha put his hands upon the king’s hands.
16Καὶ εἶπε τῷ βασιλεῖ, ἐπιβίβασον τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐπὶ τὸ τόξον· καὶ ἐπεβίβασεν Ἰωὰς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐπέθηκεν Ἑλισαιὲ τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὰς χεῖρας τοῦ βασιλέως,
17And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it . Then Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he said, The arrow of the LORD’s deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance from Syria: for thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek, till thou have consumed them .
17καὶ εἶπεν, ἄνοιξον τὴν θυρίδα κατʼ ἀνατολάς· καὶ ἤνοιξε· καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλισαιὲ, τόζευσον· καὶ ἐτόζευσε· καὶ εἶπε, βέλος σωτηρίας τῷ Κυρίῳ, καὶ βέλος σωτηρίας ἐν Συρίᾳ, καὶ πατάξεις τὴν Συρίαν ἐν Ἀφὲκ ἕως συντελείας.
18And he said, Take the arrows. And he took them . And he said unto the king of Israel, Smite upon the ground. And he smote thrice, and stayed.
18Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἑλισαιὲ, λάβε τόξα· καὶ ἔλαβε· καὶ εἶπε τῷ βασιλεῖ Ἰσραὴλ, πάταξον εἰς τὴν γῆν· καὶ ἐπάταξεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τρὶς, καὶ ἔστη·
19And the man of God was wroth with him, and said, Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times; then hadst thou smitten Syria till thou hadst consumed it: whereas now thou shalt smite Syria but thrice.
19Καὶ ἐλυπήθη ἐπʼ αὐτῷ ὁ ἄνθρωπος τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ εἶπεν, εἰ ἐπάταξας πεντάκις ἢ ἑξάκις, τότε ἂν ἐπάταξας τὴν Συρίαν ἕως συντελείας, καὶ νῦν τρὶς πατάξεις τὴν Συρίαν.
20¶ And Elisha died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
20Καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ἑλισαιὲ, καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτόν· καὶ μονόζωνοι Μωὰβ ἦλθον ἐν τῇ γῇ ἐλθόντος τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ.
21And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
21Καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῶν θαπτόντων τὸν ἄνδρα, καὶ ἰδοὺ εἶδον τὸν μονόζωνον, καὶ ἔῤῥιψαν τὸν ἄνδρα ἐν τῷ τάφῳ Ἑλισαιέ· καὶ ἐπορεύθη καὶ ἥψατο τῶν ὀστέων Ἑλισαιὲ, καὶ ἔζησε καὶ ἀνέστη ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ.
22¶ But Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
22Καὶ Ἀζαὴλ ἐξέθλιψε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας Ἰωάχαζ.
23And the LORD was gracious unto them, and had compassion on them, and had respect unto them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence as yet.
23Καὶ ἠλέησε Κύριος αὐτοὺς καὶ ᾠκτείρησεν αὐτούς, καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς διὰ τὴν διαθήκην αὐτοῦ τὴν μετὰ Ἁβραὰμ καὶ Ἰσαὰκ καὶ Ἰακὼβ, καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησε Κύριος διαφθεῖραι αὐτοὺς, καὶ οὐκ ἀπέῤῥιψεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τοῦ προσώπου αὐτοῦ.
24So Hazael king of Syria died; and Ben-hadad his son reigned in his stead.
24Καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ἀζαὴλ βασιλεὺς Συρίας, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν υἱὸς Ἄδερ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντʼ αὐτοῦ.
25And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael the cities, which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times did Joash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel.
25Καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ἰωὰς υἱὸς Ἰωάχαζ, καὶ ἔλαβε τὰς πόλεις ἐκ χειρὸς υἱοῦ Ἄδερ υἱοῦ Ἄζαὴλ, ἃς ἔλαβεν ἐκ χειρὸς Ἰωάχας τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ πολέμῳ· τρὶς ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν Ἰωὰς, καὶ ἐπέστρεψε τὰς πόλεις Ἰσραήλ.
