1 ت َوَلَّى عَزَرْيا بْنُ أمَصْيا حُكْمَ يَهُوذا فِي السَّنَةِ السّابِعَةِ وَالعِشْرِينَ مِنْ حُكْمِ يَرُبْعامَ لإسْرائِيلَ.

In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Azariah (Uzziah) son of Amaziah king of Judah began to reign.

2 و َكانَ فِي السّادِسَةَ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ عِندَما تَوَلَّى الحُكمَ. وَحَكَمَ اثْنَتَينِ وَخَمْسِينَ سَنَةً فِي القُدْسِ. وَاسْمُ أُمِّهِ يَكُلْيا، وَهِيَ مِنَ القُدْسِ.

He was sixteen years old when he began his fifty-two-year reign in Jerusalem. His mother was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.

3 و َعَمِلَ عَزَرْيا ما يُرْضِي اللهَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ ما فَعَلَهُ أبُوهُ أمَصْيا.

He did right in the Lord’s sight, in keeping with all his father Amaziah had done—

4 ل َكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَهدِمِ المُرتَفَعاتِ. فَكانَ هُناكَ مَنْ يُقَدِّمُونَ ذَبائِحَ وَيُحرِقُونَ بَخُوراً فِي تِلْكَ المُرتَفَعاتِ.

Except the high places were not removed; the people sacrificed and burned incense still on the high places.

5 و َأصابَ اللهُ المَلِكَ عَزَرْيا بِالبَرَصِ، فَكانَ أبْرَصَ حَتَّى يَوْمِ مَوْتِهِ. ولذا سَكَنَ فِي بَيتٍ خاصٍّ. فَتَوَلَّى ابْنُهُ يُوثامُ الإشْرافَ عَلَى بَيتِ المَلِكِ وَإدارَةَ شُؤُونِ الشَّعبِ.

And the Lord smote the king, so that he was a leper to his dying day, and dwelt in a separate house. Jotham the king’s son was over the household, judging the people of the land.

6 أ مّا بَقِيَّةُ أعْمالِ عَزَرْيا، فَهِيَ مُدَوَّنَةٌ فِي كِتابِ تارِيخِ مُلُوكِ يَهُوذا.

The rest of Azariah’s acts, all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

7 و َماتَ عَزَرْيا وَدُفِنَ مَعَ آبائِهِ فِي مَدِينَةِ داوُدَ. وَخَلَفَهُ فِي الحُكمِ ابْنُهُ يُوثامُ. حُكْمُ زَكَرِيّا القَصِيرِ لإسْرائِيل

Azariah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with them in the City of David. Jotham his son reigned in his stead.

8 ح َكَمَ زَكَرِيّا بْنُ يَرُبْعامَ عَلَى إسْرائِيلَ فِي السّامِرَةِ مُدَّةَ سِتَّةِ أشْهُرٍ. وَكانَ ذَلِكَ فِي السَّنَةِ الثّامِنَةِ وَالثَّلاثِينَ مِنْ حُكْمِ عَزَرْيا لِيَهُوذا.

In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah Zechariah son of Jeroboam reigned over Israel in Samaria six months.

9 و َفَعَلَ زَكَرِيّا الشَّرَّ أمامَ اللهِ كَآبائِهِ. وَتَمَسَّكَ بِخَطايا يَرُبْعامَ بْنِ نَباطَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ يُخطِئُونَ.

He did evil in the sight of the Lord, as his fathers had done; he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin.

10 و َتَآمَرَ شَلُومُ بْنُ يابِيشَ عَلَى زَكَرِيّا. وَقَتَلَهُ فِي قِبَلِعامَ، وَاسْتَولَى عَلَى الحُكْمِ.

Shallum son of Jabesh conspired against Zechariah and struck and killed him before the people and reigned in his stead.

11 و َكُلُّ الأُمُورِ الأُخرَى المُتَعَلِّقَةِ بِزَكَرِيّا مُدَوَّنَةٌ فِي كِتابِ تارِيخِ مُلُوكِ إسْرائِيلَ.

The rest of the acts of Zechariah, see, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

12 و َهَكَذا تَحَقَّقَ كَلامُ اللهِ. فَقَدَ سَبَقَ أنْ أخبَرَ اللهُ ياهُو أنَّ أربَعَةَ أجيالٍ مِنْ نَسلِهِ سَيَكُونُونَ مُلُوكاً عَلَى إسْرائِيلَ. حُكْمُ شَلُومَ القَصِيرِ لإسْرائِيل

This was the fulfillment of the promise to Jehu from the Lord: Your sons shall sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation. And so it came to pass.

13 ت َوَلَّى شَلُومُ بْنُ يابِيشَ الحُكمَ فِي إسْرائِيلَ فِي السَّنَةِ التّاسِعَةِ وَالثَّلاثِينَ مِنْ حُكْمِ عَزَرْيا لِيَهُوذا. وَحَكَمَ شَلُومُ شَهْراً واحِداً فِي السّامِرَةِ.

Shallum son of Jabesh, in the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah king of Judah, began his reign of a full month in Samaria.

14 و َصَعِدَ مَناحِيمُ بْنُ جادِي مِنْ تِرْصَةَ إلَى السّامِرَةِ. وَقَتَلَ شَلُومَ بْنَ يابِيشَ. وَتَوَلَّى الحُكْمَ بَعدَهُ.

For Menahem son of Gadi went up from Tirzah and came to Samaria, and smote and killed Shallum son of Jabesh in Samaria and reigned in his stead.

15 و َكُلُّ الأُمُورِ الأُخرَى المُتَعَلِّقَةِ بِشَلُومَ وَأعمالِهِ وَتَآمُرِهِ عَلَى زَكَرِيّا، مُدَوَّنَةٌ فِي كِتابِ تارِيخِ مُلُوكِ إسْرائِيلَ. مَناحِيمُ مَلِكُ إسْرائِيل

The rest of Shallum’s acts, his conspiracy, see, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

16 و َهَزَمَ مَناحِيمُ تَفْسَحَ وَالمِنطَقَةَ المُحِيطَةَ بِها. فَقَدْ كانَ أهلُها قَدْ رَفَضُوا أنْ يَفتَحُوا البَوّابَةَ لَهُ، فاقتَحَمَ المَدِينَةَ وَشَقَّ بُطُونَ الحَوامِلِ فِيها.

Then Menahem smote Tiphsah and all who were in it and its territory from Tirzah on; he attacked it because they did not open to him. And all the women there who were with child he ripped up.

17 ت َوَلَّى مَناحِيمُ بْنُ جادِي حُكْمَ إسْرائِيلَ فِي السَّنَةِ التّاسِعَةِ وَالثَّلاثِينَ لِحُكْمِ عَزَرْيا مَلِكاً عَلَى يَهُوذا. وَحَكَمَ مَناحِيمُ عَشَرَ سَنَواتٍ فِي السّامِرَةِ.

In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem son of Gadi began his ten-year reign over Israel in Samaria.

18 و َفَعَلَ مَناحِيمُ الشَّرَّ أمامَ اللهِ. وَتَمَسَّكَ بِخَطايا يَرُبْعامَ بْنِ نَباطَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ يُخطِئُونَ.

He did evil in the sight of the Lord; he did not depart all his days from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he caused Israel to sin.

19 و َجاءَ فُولُ مَلِكُ أشُّورَ، لِمُحارَبَةِ إسْرائِيلَ. فَأعطاهُ مَناحِيمُ ألفَ قِنْطارٍ مِنَ الفِضَّةِ مُقابِلَ الحُصُولِ عَلَى دَعْمِهِ وَمُساعَدَتِهِ فِي تَثبِيتِ سَيطَرَتِهِ عَلَى المَملَكَةِ.

There came against the land Pul king of Assyria, and Menahem gave Pul 1, 000 talents of silver, that he might help him to confirm his kingship.

20 ج َمَعَ مَناحِيمُ هَذا المَبلَغَ مِنَ المالِ بِأنْ فَرَضَ عَلَى أغنِياءِ بَلَدِهِ دَفْعَ خَمِسِينَ مِثْقالاً مِنَ الفِضَّةِ. وَهَكَذا رَجِعَ مَلِكُ أشُّورَ مِنْ دُونَ أنْ يَحتَلَّ إسْرائِيلَ.

Menahem exacted the money from Israel, from all the men of wealth, from each man fifty shekels of silver to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back and did not stay in the land.

21 و َكُلَّ الأُمُورِ الأُخرَى المُتَعَلِّقَةِ بِمَناحِيمَ وَأعمالِهِ مُدَوَّنَةٌ فِي كِتابِ تارِيخِ مُلُوكِ إسْرائِيلَ.

The rest of Menahem’s acts, all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

22 و َماتَ مَناحِيمُ وَدُفِنَ مَعَ آبائِهِ. وَتَوَلَّى الحُكْمَ بَعدَهُ ابْنُهُ فَقَحْيا. فَقَحْيا مَلِكُ إسْرائِيل

Menahem slept with his fathers; Pekahiah his son reigned in his stead.

23 ت َوَلَّى فَقَحْيا بْنُ مَناحِيمَ حُكْمَ إسْرائِيلَ فِي السَّنَةِ الخَمْسِينَ مِنْ حُكْمِ عَزَرْيا لِيَهُوذا. وَحَكَمَ فَقَحْيا سَنَتَينِ.

In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekahiah son of Menahem began his two-year reign over Israel in Samaria.

24 و َفَعَلَ فَقَحْيا الشَّرَّ أمامَ اللهِ. وَتَمَسَّكَ بِخَطايا يَرُبْعامَ بْنِ نَباطَ الَّذِي جَرَّ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ إلَى الخَطِيَّةِ.

He did evil in the sight of the Lord; he did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he made Israel sin.

25 و َتَآمَرَ عَلَيهِ فَقَحُ آمِرُ الجَيشِ، وَقَتَلَهُ فِي السّامِرَةِ فِي قَصْرِ المَلِكِ. وَكانَ مَعَهُ خَمْسُونَ رَجُلاً حِينَ قَتَلَهُ. وَاسْتَولَى فَقَحُ عَلَى الحَكْمِ بَعْدَهُ.

But Pekah son of Remaliah, his captain, conspired against and attacked him in Samaria, in the citadel of the king’s house, with Argob and Arieh; with were fifty Gileadites. And he killed him and reigned in his stead.

26 و َكُلُّ الأُمُورِ الأُخرَى المُتَعَلِّقَةِ بِفَقَحْيا وَأعمالِهِ مُدَوَّنَةٌ فِي كِتابِ تارِيخِ مُلُوكِ إسْرائِيلَ. فَقَحُ مَلِكُ إسْرائِيل

The rest of the acts of Pekahiah, all he did, see, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

27 و َتَوَلَّى فَقَحُ بْنُ رَمَلْيا حُكْمَ إسْرائِيلَ فِي السّامِرَةِ فِي السَّنَةِ الثّانِيَةِ وَالخَمْسِينَ مِنْ حُكْمِ عَزَرْيا لِيَهُوذا. وَحَكَمَ فَقَحٌ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً.

In the fifty-second year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekah son of Remaliah began his twenty-year reign over Israel in Samaria.

28 و َفَعَلَ فَقَحُ الشَّرَّ أمامَ اللهِ. وَتَمَسَّكَ بِخَطايا يَرُبْعامَ بْنِ نَباطَ الَّذِي جَرَّ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ إلَى الخَطِيَّةِ.

He did evil in the Lord’s sight; he did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he made Israel sin.

29 و َجاءَ تَغلَثُ فَلاسِرُ، مَلِكُ أشُّورَ، لِمُحارَبَةِ إسْرائِيلَ أثْناءَ حُكْمِ فَقَحَ. وَاستَولَى عَلَى عُيُونَ وَآبِلَ وَبَيتِ مَعْكَةَ وَيانُوحَ وَقادِشَ وَحاصُورَ وَجِلْعادَ وَالجَلِيلِ وَكُلَّ مِنْطَقَةِ نَفتالِي. وَسَبَى أهلَها إلَى أشُّورَ.

In the days of Pekah king of Israel, Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria came and took Ijon, Abel-beth-maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, Gilead, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali, and carried the people captive to Assyria.

30 و َتَآمَرَ هُوشَعُ بْنُ أيلَةَ عَلَى فَقَحَ بْنِ رَمَلْيا، وَقَتَلَهُ. وَاسْتَولَى عَلَى العَرشِ بَعْدَهُ. كانَ هَذا فِي السَّنَةِ العِشْرِينَ مِنْ حُكمِ يُوثامَ بْنِ عُزِّيّا لِيَهُوذا.

Hoshea son of Elah conspired against Pekah son of Remaliah; he smote and killed him, and reigned in his stead in the twentieth year of Jotham son of Uzziah king of Judah.

31 أ مّا بَقِيَّةُ أعْمالِ فَقَحَ، فَهِيَ مُدَوَّنَةٌ فِي كِتابِ تارِيخِ مُلُوكِ إسْرائِيلَ. يُوثامُ مَلِكُ يَهُوذا

The rest of Pekah’s acts, all that he did, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of Israel’s Kings.

32 و َتَوَلَّى يُوثامُ بْنُ عُزِّيّا حُكْمَ يَهُوذا فِي السَّنَةِ الثّانِيَةِ مِنْ حُكْمِ فَقَحَ بْنِ رَمَلْيا لإسْرائِيلَ.

In the second year of Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel, Jotham son of Uzziah king of Judah became king.

33 و َكانَ يُوثامُ فِي الخامِسَةِ وَالعِشْرِينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ عِندَما تَوَلَّى الحُكمَ، وَحَكَمَ سِتَّ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً فِي القُدْسِ. وَأُمُّهُ هِيَ يَرُوشا بِنْتُ صادُوقَ.

When he was twenty-five years old, he began his reign of sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother was Jerusha daughter of Zadok.

34 و َعَمِلَ يُوثامُ ما يُرضِي اللهَ كَأبِيهِ عُزِّيّا.

He did right in the Lord’s sight, according to all his father Uzziah had done.

35 غ َيرَ أنَّهُ لَمْ يَهدِمِ المُرتَفَعاتِ. فَكانَ هُناكَ مَنْ يُقَدِّمُونَ ذَبائِحَ وَيُحرِقُونَ بَخُوراً فِي تِلْكَ المُرتَفَعاتِ. وَبَنَى يُوثامُ البَوّابَةَ العُلوِيَّةَ لِبَيتِ اللهِ.

Yet the high places were not removed; the people sacrificed and burned incense still on the high places. He built the Upper Gate of the house of the Lord.

36 أ مّا بَقِيَّةُ أعْمالِ يُوثامَ، فَهِيَ مُدَوَّنَةٌ فِي كِتابِ تارِيخِ مُلُوكِ يَهُوذا.

The rest of the acts of Jotham, all he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of Judah’s Kings?

37 ف ِي ذَلِكَ الوَقتِ، بَدَأ اللهُ يُرسِلُ راصِينَ، مَلِكَ أرامَ، وَفَقَحاً بْنِ رَمَلْيا لِمُحارَبَةِ يَهُوذا.

In those days the Lord began sending Rezin king of Syria and Pekah son of Remaliah against Judah.

38 و َماتَ يُوثامُ وَدُفِنَ مَعَ آبائِهِ فِي مَدِينَةِ داوُدَ. فَخَلَفَهُ فِي الحُكْمِ ابنُهُ آحازُ.

Jotham slept with his fathers and was buried in the city of David his. Ahaz his son succeeded him.
