王下13:1 犹大王亚哈谢的儿子约阿施在位第二十三年，耶户的儿子约哈斯在撒玛利亚登基，统治以色列共十七年。
王下13:1 In the twenty-third year of Joash, the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, became king over Israel in Samaria, ruling for seventeen years.
王下13:2 他行耶和华看为恶的事，随从尼八的儿子耶罗波安使以色列人陷于罪中的那些罪，不肯转离。
王下13:2 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, copying the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, which he did and made Israel do; he did not keep himself from them.
王下13:3 于是耶和华的怒气向以色列发作，常把他们交在亚兰王哈薛的手中和哈薛的儿子便．哈达的手中。
王下13:3 So the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he gave them up into the power of Hazael, king of Aram, and into the power of Ben-hadad, the son of Hazael, again and again.
王下13:4 约哈斯恳求耶和华，耶和华垂听他的祷告，因为看见了以色列所受的压迫，就是亚兰王对他们的压迫。
王下13:4 Then Jehoahaz made prayer to the Lord, and the Lord gave ear to him, for he saw how cruelly Israel was crushed by the king of Aram.
王下13:5 耶和华就赐给以色列一位拯救者，他救他们脱离亚兰王的手，于是以色列人可以在自己的家安居，好像以前一样。
王下13:5 (And the Lord gave Israel a saviour, so that they became free from the hands of the Aramaeans; and the children of Israel were living in their tents as in the past.
王下13:6 可是他们没有离开耶罗波安家使以色列人陷于罪中的那些罪，仍然行在罪中；亚舍拉依然立在撒玛利亚。
王下13:6 But still they did not give up the sin of Jeroboam, which he made Israel do, but went on with it; and there was an image of Asherah in Samaria.)
王下13:7 于是耶和华没有给约哈斯留下余民，只剩下骑兵五十人，战车十辆和步兵一万人，因为亚兰王毁灭他们，践踏他们好像禾场上的尘土。
王下13:7 For out of all his army, Jehoahaz had only fifty horsemen and ten carriages and ten thousand footmen; the king of Aram had given them up to destruction, crushing them like dust.
王下13:8 约哈斯其余的事迹和他所行的一切，以及他的英勇事迹，不是都写在以色列诸王的年代志上吗？
王下13:8 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all he did, and his great power, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
王下13:9 约哈斯和他的祖先一同长眠，葬在撒玛利亚。他的儿子约阿施接续他作王。
王下13:9 And Jehoahaz went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria; and Joash his son became king in his place.
王下13:10 犹大王约阿施在位第三十七年，约哈斯的儿子约阿施在撒玛利亚登基，统治以色列共十六年。
王下13:10 In the thirty-seventh year of the rule of Joash, king of Judah, Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, became king over Israel in Samaria, ruling for sixteen years.
王下13:11 他行耶和华看为恶的事，不转离尼八的儿子耶罗波安使以色列人陷于罪中的一切罪，仍然行在罪中。
王下13:11 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, not turning away from the sin of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, which he did and made Israel do, but he went on with it.
王下13:12 约阿施其余的事迹和他所行的一切，以及他与犹大王亚玛谢作战时的英勇事迹，不是都写在以色列诸王的年代志上吗？
王下13:12 Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all he did, and the force with which he went to war against Amaziah, king of Judah, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
王下13:13 约阿施和他的祖先一同长眠后，耶罗波安坐上了他的王位。他把约阿施葬在撒玛利亚，和以色列诸王在一起。
王下13:13 And Joash went to rest with his fathers and Jeroboam took his place as king; and Joash was put into the earth in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
王下13:14 以利沙患了必死的病。以色列王约阿施下到他那里，伏在他的脸上哭，说：“父啊，父啊！以色列的战车和骑兵啊！”
王下13:14 Now Elisha became ill with the disease which was the cause of his death: and Joash, king of Israel, came down to him, and weeping over him said, My father, my father, the war-carriages of Israel and its horsemen!
王下13:15 以利沙对他说：“拿弓箭来！”他就把弓箭拿给他。
王下13:15 Then Elisha said to him, Take bow and arrows: and he took bow and arrows.
王下13:16 他对以色列王说：“把你的手放在弓上吧！”他就把手放在弓上，以利沙又把自己的手放在王的手上。
王下13:16 And he said to the king of Israel, Put your hand on the bow: and he put his hand on it; and Elisha put his hands on the king's hands.
王下13:17 他说：“打开向东的窗户。”他就打开了。以利沙说：“放箭吧！”他就放箭。以利沙说：“这是耶和华胜利的箭，耶和华得胜亚兰人的箭。你要在亚弗击杀亚兰人，直到完全灭绝。”
王下13:17 Then he said; Let the window be open to the east: and he got it open. Then Elisha said, Let the arrow go; and he let it go. And he said, The Lord's arrow of salvation, of salvation over Aram; for you will overcome the Aramaeans in Aphek and put an end to them.
王下13:18 他又说：“拿箭来！”他就拿了来。他对以色列王说：“你击打地吧！”他就击打地，打了三次就站起来了。
王下13:18 And he said, Take the arrows: and he took them. And he said to the king of Israel, Send them down into the earth; and he did so three times and no more.
王下13:19 神人就对他发怒，说：“你应该击打五次或者六次，那样就能打败亚兰人，直到完全消灭他们。现在，你只可以打败亚兰人三次了。”
王下13:19 Then the man of God was angry with him and said, If you had done it five or six times, then you would have overcome Aram completely; but now you will only overcome them three times.
王下13:20 以利沙死了，也埋葬了。摩押人常在每年春天入侵以色列地。
王下13:20 And death came to Elisha and they put his body into the earth. Now in the spring of the year, armed bands of Moabites frequently came, overrunning the land.
王下13:21 有人正在埋葬死人的时候，看见一群来侵略的人，他们就把死尸丢在以利沙的坟上，随即走了。死尸碰着以利沙的骨头就复活了，双脚站了起来。
王下13:21 And while they were putting a dead man into the earth, they saw a band coming; and they put the man quickly into the place where Elisha's body was; and the dead man, on touching Elisha's bones, came to life again, and got up on his feet.
王下13:22 约哈斯在位的日子，亚兰王哈薛一直都欺压以色列。
王下13:22 And Israel was crushed under the power of Hazael, king of Aram, all the days of Jehoahaz.
王下13:23 但耶和华仍然施恩给他们，怜悯他们，眷顾他们，这是因为他与亚伯拉罕、以撒和雅各所立的约，不愿意毁灭他们，把他们从自己的面前丢弃，直到今日。
王下13:23 But the Lord was kind to them and had pity on them, caring for them, because of his agreement with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; he would not put them to destruction or send them away from before his face till now.
王下13:24 亚兰王哈薛死了，他的儿子便．哈达接续他作王。
王下13:24 Then Hazael, king of Aram, came to his end; and Ben-hadad his son became king in his place.
王下13:25 约哈斯的儿子约阿施从哈薛的儿子便．哈达手中，把哈薛在战争时从约阿施的父亲约哈斯手中夺去的城市收复。约阿施三次打败便．哈达，收复以色列的城市。
王下13:25 And Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, took again from Ben-hadad, the son of Hazael, the towns which he had taken from Jehoahaz his father in war. Three times Jehoash overcame him and got back the towns of Israel.
