Chapter 16
In
the
seuenteenth
yeere
of
Pekah
the
sonne
of
Remaliah,
Ahaz
the
sonne
of
Iotham
King
of
Iudah
began
to
reigne.
2
Twentie
yeeres
olde
was
Ahaz
when
hee
began
to
reigne,
and
reigned
sixteene
yeeres
in
Ierusalem,
and
did
not
that
which
was
right
in
the
sight
of
the
Lord
his
God,
like
Dauid
his
father:
3
But
hee
walked
in
the
way
of
the
kings
of
Israel,
yea
&
made
his
sonne
to
passe
through
the
fire,
according
to
the
abominations
of
the
heathen,
whom
the
Lord
cast
out
from
before
the
children
of
Israel.
4
And
hee
sacrificed
and
burnt
incense
in
the
high
places,
and
on
the
hils,
and
vnder
euery
greene
tree.
5
Then
Rezin
king
of
Syria,
and
Pekah
sonne
of
Remaliah
king
of
Israel,
came
vp
to
Ierusalem
to
warre:
and
they
besieged
Ahaz,
but
could
not
ouercome
him.
6
At
that
time
Rezin
king
of
Syria,
recouered
Elath
to
Syria,
&
draue
the
Iewes
from
Elath:
and
the
Syrians
came
to
Elath,
and
dwelt
there
vnto
this
day.
7
So
Ahaz
sent
messengers
to
Tiglath
Pileser
king
of
Assyria,
saying,
I
am
thy
seruant,
and
thy
sonne:
come
vp,
and
saue
me
out
of
the
hand
of
the
king
of
Syria,
and
out
of
the
hand
of
the
king
of
Israel,
which
rise
vp
against
me.
8
And
Ahaz
tooke
the
siluer
and
gold
that
was
found
in
the
house
of
the
Lord,
and
in
the
treasures
of
the
kings
house,
and
sent
it
for
a
present
to
the
king
of
Assyria.
9
And
the
king
of
Assyria
hearkened
vnto
him:
for
the
king
of
Assyria
went
vp
against
Damascus,
and
tooke
it,
and
caried
the
people
of
it
captiue
to
Kir,
and
slew
Rezin.
10
And
King
Ahaz
went
to
Damascus,
to
meete
Tiglath
Pileser
king
of
Assyria,
and
saw
an
altar
that
was
at
Damascus:
and
king
Ahaz
sent
to
Uriiah
the
Priest
the
fashion
of
the
altar,
and
the
paterne
of
it,
according
to
all
the
workemanship
thereof.
11
And
Uriiah
the
Priest
built
an
altar:
according
to
all
that
king
Ahaz
had
sent
from
Damascus,
so
Uriiah
the
Priest
made
it,
against
king
Ahaz
came
from
Damascus.
12
And
when
the
king
was
come
from
Damascus,
the
King
saw
the
altar:
and
the
King
approched
to
the
altar,
and
offered
thereon.
13
And
he
burnt
his
burnt
offering,
and
his
meate
offering,
and
powred
his
drinke
offering,
and
sprinkled
the
blood
of
his
peace
offerings
vpon
the
altar.
14
And
hee
brought
also
the
brasen
altar
which
was
before
the
Lord,
from
the
forefront
of
the
house,
from
betweene
the
altar
and
the
house
of
the
Lord,
and
put
it
on
the
North
side
of
the
altar.
15
And
king
Ahaz
commanded
Uriiah
the
Priest,
saying,
Upon
the
great
altar,
burne
the
morning
burnt
offering,
and
the
euening
meate
offering,
and
the
Kings
burnt
sacrifice,
and
his
meate
offering,
with
the
burnt
offering
of
all
the
people
of
the
land,
and
their
meate
offering,
and
their
drinke
offerings,
and
sprinkle
vpon
it
all
the
blood
of
the
burnt
offering,
and
all
the
blood
of
the
sacrifice:
and
the
brasen
altar
shall
be
for
me
to
enquire
by.
16
Thus
did
Uriiah
the
Priest,
according
to
all
that
king
Ahaz
commaunded.
17
And
king
Ahaz
cut
off
the
borders
of
the
bases,
and
remooued
the
lauer
from
off
them,
and
tooke
downe
the
sea
from
off
the
brasen
oxen
that
were
vnder
it,
and
put
it
vpon
a
pauement
of
stones:
18
And
the
couert
for
the
Sabbath
that
they
had
built
in
the
house,
and
the
kings
entry
without,
turned
hee
from
the
house
of
the
Lord,
for
the
king
of
Assyria.
19
Now
the
rest
of
the
actes
of
Ahaz,
which
he
did,
are
they
not
written
in
the
booke
of
the
Chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Iudah?
20
And
Ahaz
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
was
buried
with
his
fathers
in
the
city
of
Dauid,
and
Hezekiah
his
sonne
reigned
in
his
stead.
