¹

In the twenty-third year of Joas son of Ochozias king of Juda began Joachaz the son of Ju to reign in Samaria, and he reigned seventeen years.

¹

Въ лњто, к~г е, и^ѓ^а'са сн~а а^хозїина цр~я і^ё'дина, цр~ьствова и^ѓ^аха'зъ сн~ъ и^ёеv в# самарїи, з~і лњтъ”

²

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked after the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who led Israel to sin; he departed not from them.

²

И сотвори` лђка'вое преD ѓ^чима гн~има. и^ нача` ходи'ти по пђте'мъ і^е^ровоа'млимъ сн~а нава'това, и^же съгрњши'ти воведе` і^и^л~я. и^ не ѓ^стася ѕло'бы то'я”

³

And the Lord was very angry with Israel, and delivered them into the hand of Azael king of Syria, and into the hand of the son of Ader son of Azael, all their days.

³

И$ разгнњ'вася г~ь гнњ'вомъ на і^и^л~я. и^ въда'сть и^хъ в рђ'цњ а^заи'лю цр~ю а^сљ=рьскђ, и^ в рђцњ сн~а а^дерова сн~а а^заи'лева во вся дн~и.

⁴

And Joachaz besought the Lord, and the Lord hearkened to him, for he saw the affliction of Israel, because the king of Syria afflicted them.

⁴

И$ помоли'ся и^ѓ^а^хазъ лицю гн~ю. и^ ё^слы'ша и& г~ь ја^ко ви'дњ скорбъ і^и^л~евђ. е^ю'же ѓ^скорби цр~ь сљ=рїискїи”

⁵

And the Lord gave deliverance to Israel, and they escaped from under the hand of Syria: and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents as heretofore.

⁵

И$ да'сть и^мъ сп~сенїе г~ь. і^ и^збыша эT рђкђ а^сљ=рьскђ. и^ въсели'шася сн~ве і^и^л~ви в села своа` ја%коже и^ преже”

⁶

Only they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who led Israel to sin: they walked in them—moreover the grove also remained in Samaria.

⁶

Ното'кмо не эTстђпи'ша эT грXњ до'мђ і^е^ровоа'мля сн~а наватова и^же съгрњшити въведе` і^и^л~я. по неM ходя'хђ и^ принесо'ша кђмиръ, и^же бњ въ самарїи”

⁷

Whereas there was not left any army to Joachaz, except fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand infantry: for the king of Syria had destroyed them, and they made them as dust for trampling.

⁷

ЈА/ко не ѓ^ста'вишася а^хазђ лю'дїе. н^ото'кмо, н~, ко'нникъ. и^ і~, колесни'ць, и^ л~ пњшецъ. ја%ко и^згђбилъ бя'ше и^хъ цр~ь сљ=рїискїи. и^ положи я& ја%ко прахъ на попра'нїе”

⁸

And the rest of the acts of Joachaz, and all that he did, and his mighty acts are not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

⁸

и^ про'чая словесъ и^ѓ^ахазовыхъ и^ вс^я е^ли'ко сътвори`, и^ вс^я си'ла е^го. не с^е ли пи'сана бы'ша въ кни'ѕњ слове'съ дн~їи цр~ь і^и^л~евъ”

⁹

And Joachaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria: and Joas his son reigned in his stead.

⁹

И$ ё'мре и^ѓ^а^хаз# и^ погребенъ бы'сть съ эTц~ы своими в# самарїи. и^ црsтвова и^ѓ^а'съ сн~ъ е^го в# него' мњ'сто”

¹⁰

In the thirty-seventh year of Joas king of Juda, Joas the son of Joachaz began to reign over Israel in Samaria sixteen years.

¹⁰

Въ лњто, л~џ е, и^ѓ^а'са цр~я і^ё'дина црsтвова и^ѓ^а'съ сн~ъ а^хазовъ наD і^и^л~емъ в# самарїи, ѕ~і, лњтъ”

¹¹

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord; he departed not from all the sin of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who led Israel to sin: he walked in it.

¹¹

И$ сътвори лђка'вое преD гм~ъ и^ не эTстђпи эT грњхъ всXњ і^е^ровоа'мль сн~а нава'това и^же съгрњшити воведе і^и^л~я. потњмъже и^ то'й хождаше”

¹²

And the rest of the acts of Joas, and all that he did, and his mighty acts which he performed together with Amessias king of Juda, are not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

¹²

И$ про'чая слове'съ и^ѓ^а'совыX и^ вс^я е^ли'ка сътвори`, и^ вс^я си'ла е^го ја%же сътвори` съ а^масњеM цр~емъ і^ё'динымъ. т^о не се л^и сїя писана быша въ кни'ѕњ словеs дн~їи цр~ь і^и^л~евъ”

¹³

And Joas slept with his fathers, and Jeroboam sat upon his throne, and he was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.

¹³

И$ ё'мретъ и^ѓ^а'съ и^ погребе'нъ бысть съ эTц~ы свои'ми въ самарїи съ сн~ъми і^и^л~евыми” І$ е^ровоаM же сњде на престо'лњ е^го”

¹⁴

Now Elisaie was sick of his sickness, whereof he died: and Joas king of Israel went down to him, and wept over his face, and said, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horseman thereof!

¹⁴

І$ е^лисе'и разболњся бо'лезнїю свое'ю, е^ю'же и^ ё'мре. и^ прїиде к немђ и^ѓ^а'съ цр~ь і^и^л~евъ. и^ пла'кася наD лицеM е^го и^ рече. эTч~е эTч~е, колесни'ца і^и^л~ева и^ снђзници е^я`”

¹⁵

And Elisaie said to him, Take bow and arrows. And he took to himself a bow and arrows.

¹⁵

И$ реq е^мђ і^е^лисе'и возми` лkђ и^ стрњлђ. и^ взяT преD ниM лђкъ и^ стрњлђ”

¹⁶

And he said to the king, Put thy hand on the bow. And Joas put his hand upon it: and Elisaie put his hands upon the king's hands.

¹⁶

И$ реq цр~ю возложи рђкђ свою на лkђ” И$ возложи и^ѓ^аs рђкђ свою на лkђ. і^е^лисе'и возложи рђкђ свою` верхђ рђкђ цр~евђ”

¹⁷

And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. And Elisaie said, Shoot. And he shot. And Elisaie said, The arrow of the Lord's deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance from Syria; and thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphec until thou have consumed them.

¹⁷

И$ рече эTвръзи ѓ^кно ја%же е^сть на восто'къ и^ эTверзе. и^ рече і^е^лисе'и стрњли, и^ стрњли цр~ь и^ рече і^е^лисе'и сїя стрњла спsнїя гн~я” и^ стрњла сп~са'ющаго въ сљ=рїи. и^ побњди'ши сљ=рїю, на џекђ даже до сконча'нїя”

¹⁸

And Elisaie said to him, Take bow and arrows. And he took them. And he said to the king of Israel, Smite upon the ground. And the king smote three times, and stayed.

¹⁸

И$ рече е^мђ і^е^лисе'и возми` лkђ и^ взя'тъ. и^ рече цр~ю і^и^л~евъ. ё^да'ри ного'ю на' землю, и^ ё^да'ри цр~ь три'жды и^ ста`”

¹⁹

And the man of God was grieved at him, and said, If thou hadst smitten five or six times, then thou shouldest have smitten Syria till thou hadst consumed them; but now thou shalt smite Syria only thrice.

¹⁹

И$ ѓ^скорбњ чл~къ бж~їи ѓ^ немъ и^ рече. а%ще б^ы ё^дарилъ е^си пяти'щи, и^л^и шести'щи. тогда` б^ы е^си попралъ сљ=рїю до сконча'нїя. и^ нн~њ побњди'ши сљ=рїю толи'котрищи”

²⁰

And Elisaie died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites came into the land, at the beginning of the year.

²⁰

И$ ё'мре і^е^лисе'и, и^ погребо'ша и&” Во'ини же эT моа'ва в#неза'пђ прїидо'ша въ зе'млю. настава'ющђ лњтђ томђ`”

²¹

And it came to pass as they were burying a man, that behold, they saw a band of men, and they cast the man into the grave of Elisaie: and as soon as he touched the bones of Elisaie, he revived and stood up on his feet.

²¹

И$ бысть и^мъ погрњба'ющимъ тњло мђжа мрътва. и^ с^е ви'дњша во'и внезапђ. и^ поверго'ша мђжа во' гробњ і^е^лисеѓ'вњ. и^ впаде тњло чл~ка мр~тва и^ прикоснђ'ся ко'стемъ і^е^лисеѓ'вымъ. и^ ѓ^жи мQђ и^ ста` на но'гђ свое^ю”

²²

And Azael greatly afflicted Israel all the days of Joachaz.

²²

А$заи'лъ же ѓ^скоrбляше і^и^л~я, во вся` дн~и а^хазовы”

²³

And the Lord had mercy and compassion upon them, and had respect to them because of his covenant with Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob; and the Lord would not destroy them, and did not cast them out from his presence.

²³

И$ поми'лова я& г~ь и^ ё^щедри я&. и^ призри на' ня завњта ради свое^го и^же съ а^враа'момъ і^саа'комъ і^ и^а'ковомъ. и^ не хотя'ше г~ь потребити иX ниже эTвръже и^хъ эT лица своего”

²⁴

And Azael king of Syria died, and the son of Ader his son reigned in his stead.

²⁴

И$ ё'мре а^заи'лъ цр~ь сљ=рьскїи и^ црsтвова адеръ сн~ъ его в него` мњ'сто”

²⁵

And Joas the son of Joachaz returned, and took the cities out of the hand of the son of Ader the son of Azael, which he had taken out of the hand of Joachaz his father in the war: thrice did Joas smite him, and he recovered the cities of Israel.

²⁵

И$ возврати'ся и^ѓ^а'съ сн~ъ а^хазовъ. и^ прїя'тъ граD эT рђкы а^деровы сн~а а^заи'лева. ја%же б^њ прїя'лъ эT рђкђ и^ѓ^а^хаза эTц~а е^го въ бра'ни. трижды б^о побњди е^го и^ѓ^а'съ. и^ възврати грады і^и^л~я”
