1
 After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;
2
 and found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.
3
 And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.
4
 And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.
5
 And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews
that
Jesus
was
Christ.
6
 And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook
his
raiment, and said unto them, Your blood
be
upon your own heads; I
am
clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.
7
 And he departed thence, and entered into a certain
man's
house, named Justus,
one
that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue.
8
 And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized.
9
 Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision,
Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:
10
Â
for I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city.
11
 And he continued
there
a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
12
 And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,
13
 saying, This
fellow
persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.
14
 And when Paul was now about to open
his
mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O
ye
Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:
15
 but if it be a question of words and names, and
of
your law, look ye
to it;
for I will be no judge of such
matters.
16
 And he drave them from the judgment seat.
17
 Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat
him
before the judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things.
18
 And Paul
after this
tarried
there
yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn
his
head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.
19
 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.
20
 When they desired
him
to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;
21
 but bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.
22
 And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.
David's
Psalm
of praise.
1
 I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
2
 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
3
 Great
is
the L
ORD
, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness
is
unsearchable.
4
 One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.
5
 I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.
6
 And
men
shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.
7
 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.
8
 The L
ORD
is
gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.
9
 The L
ORD
is
good to all: and his tender mercies
are
over all his works.
10
 All thy works shall praise thee, O L
ORD
; and thy saints shall bless thee.
11
 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;
12
 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.
13
 Thy kingdom
is
an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion
endureth
throughout all generations.
14
 The L
ORD
upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all
those that be
bowed down.
15
 The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.
16
 Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
17
 The L
ORD
is
righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.
18
 The L
ORD
is
nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.
19
 He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.
20
 The L
ORD
preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy.
21
 My mouth shall speak the praise of the L
ORD
: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
1
 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh
and
intermeddleth with all wisdom.
1
 In 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.
2
 And he did
that which was
evil in the sight of the L
ORD
, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.
3
 And the anger of the L
ORD
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.
4
 And Jehoahaz besought the L
ORD
, and the L
ORD
hearkened unto him: for he saw the oppression of Israel, because the king of Syria oppressed them.
5
 (And the L
ORD
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.
6
 Nevertheless 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.)
7
 Neither 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.
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?
9
 And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son reigned in his stead.
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.
11
 And he did
that which was
evil in the sight of the L
ORD
; he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin:
but
he walked therein.
12
 And 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?
13
 And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat upon his throne: and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
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.
15
 And Elisha said unto him, Take bow and arrows. And he took unto him bow and arrows.
16
 And 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.
17
 And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened
it.
Then Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he said, The arrow of the L
ORD
's deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance from Syria: for thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek, till thou have consumed
them.
18
 And 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.
19
 And 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.
20
 And Elisha died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
21
 And 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.
22
 But Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
23
 And the L
ORD
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.
24
 So Hazael king of Syria died; and Ben-hadad his son reigned in his stead.
25
 And 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.
14:
1
 In the second year of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel reigned Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah.
2
 He was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name
was
Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.
3
 And he did
that which was
right in the sight of the L
ORD
, yet not like David his father: he did according to all things as Joash his father did.
4
 Howbeit the high places were not taken away: as yet the people did sacrifice and burnt incense on the high places.
5
 And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom was confirmed in his hand, that he slew his servants which had slain the king his father.
6
 But the children of the murderers he slew not: according unto that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the L
ORD
commanded, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
7
 He slew of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and took Selah by war, and called the name of it Joktheel unto this day.
8
 Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one another in the face.
9
 And Jehoash the king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that
was
in Lebanon sent to the cedar that
was
in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that
was
in Lebanon, and trode down the thistle.
10
 Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thine heart hath lifted thee up: glory
of this,
and tarry at home: for why shouldest thou meddle to
thy
hurt, that thou shouldest fall,
even
thou, and Judah with thee?
11
 But Amaziah would not hear. Therefore Jehoash king of Israel went up; and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth-shemesh, which
belongeth
to Judah.
12
 And Judah was put to the worse before Israel; and they fled every man to their tents.
13
 And Jehoash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Jehoash the son of Ahaziah, at Beth-shemesh, and came to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the corner gate, four hundred cubits.
14
 And he took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the L
ORD
, and in the treasures of the king's house, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.
15
 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah,
are
they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
16
 And Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.
17
 And Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.
18
 And the rest of the acts of Amaziah,
are
they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
19
 Now they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: and he fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there.
20
 And they brought him on horses: and he was buried at Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.
21
 And all the people of Judah took Azariah, which
was
sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah.
22
 He built Elath, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.
23
 In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel began to reign in Samaria,
and reigned
forty and one years.
24
 And he did
that which was
evil in the sight of the L
ORD
: he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.
25
 He restored the coast of Israel from the entering of Hamath unto the sea of the plain, according to the word of the L
ORD
God of Israel, which he spake by the hand of his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, the prophet, which
was
of Gathhepher.
26
 For the L
ORD
saw the affliction of Israel,
that it was
very bitter: for
there was
not any shut up, nor any left, nor any helper for Israel.
27
 And the L
ORD
said not that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven: but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash.
28
 Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might, how he warred, and how he recovered Damascus, and Hamath,
which belonged
to Judah, for Israel, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
29
 And Jeroboam slept with his fathers,
even
with the kings of Israel; and Zachariah his son reigned in his stead.
