Today's audio is from the CEV. Switch to the CEV to read along with the audio. 13 In the twenty-third year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and he reigned seventeen years. 2 He did what was evil in the sight of the Lord and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin; he did not depart from them. 3 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he gave them continually into the hand of Hazael king of Syria and into the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael. 4 Then Jehoahaz sought the favor of the Lord, and the Lord listened to him, for he saw the oppression of Israel, how the king of Syria oppressed them. 5 (Therefore the Lord gave Israel a savior, so that they escaped from the hand of the Syrians, and the people of Israel lived in their homes as formerly. 6 Nevertheless, they did not depart from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, which he made Israel to sin, but walked[a] in them; and the Asherah also remained in Samaria.) 7 For there was not left to Jehoahaz an army of more than fifty horsemen and ten chariots and ten thousand footmen, for the king of Syria had destroyed them and made them like the dust at 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 So Jehoahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria, and Joash his son reigned in his place. 10 In the thirty-seventh year of Joash king of Judah, Jehoash[b] the son of Jehoahaz began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and he reigned sixteen years. 11 He also did what was evil in the sight of the Lord. He did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin, but he walked in them. 12 Now the rest of the acts of Joash and all that he did, and the might with which he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel? 13 So Joash slept with his fathers, and Jeroboam sat on his throne. And Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel. 14 Now when Elisha had fallen sick with the illness of which he was to die, Joash king of Israel went down to him and wept before him, crying, “My father, my father! The chariots of Israel and its horsemen!” 15 And Elisha said to him, “Take a bow and arrows.” So he took a bow and arrows. 16 Then he said to the king of Israel, “Draw the bow,” and he drew it. And Elisha laid his hands on 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 Lord's arrow of victory, the arrow of victory over Syria! For you shall fight the Syrians in Aphek until you have made an end of them.” 18 And he said, “Take the arrows,” and he took them. And he said to the king of Israel, “Strike the ground with them.” And he struck three times and stopped. 19 Then the man of God was angry with him and said, “You should have struck five or six times; then you would have struck down Syria until you had made an end of it, but now you will strike down Syria only three times.” 20 So Elisha died, and they buried him. Now bands of Moabites used to invade the land in the spring of the year. 21 And as a man was being buried, behold, a marauding band was seen and the man was thrown into the grave of Elisha, and as soon as the man touched the bones of Elisha, he revived and stood on his feet. 22 Now Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz. 23 But the Lord was gracious to them and had compassion on them, and he turned toward them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, nor has he cast them from his presence until now. 24 When Hazael king of Syria died, Ben-hadad his son became king in his place. 25 Then Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again from Ben-hadad the son of Hazael the cities that he had taken from Jehoahaz his father in war. Three times Joash defeated him and recovered the cities of Israel. 14 In the second year of Joash the son of Joahaz, king of Israel, Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jehoaddin of Jerusalem. 3 And he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, yet not like David his father. He did in all things as Joash his father had done. 4 But the high places were not removed; the people still sacrificed and made offerings on the high places. 5 And as soon as the royal power was firmly in his hand, he struck down his servants who had struck down the king his father. 6 But he did not put to death the children of the murderers, according to what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, where the Lord commanded, “Fathers shall not be put to death because of their children, nor shall children be put to death because of their fathers. But each one shall die for his own sin.” 7 He struck down ten thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt and took Sela by storm, and called it Joktheel, which is its name to this day. 8 Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash[c] the son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, “Come, let us look one another in the face.” 9 And Jehoash king of Israel sent word to Amaziah king of Judah, “A thistle on Lebanon sent to a cedar on Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son for a wife,’ and a wild beast of Lebanon passed by and trampled down the thistle. 10 You have indeed struck down Edom, and your heart has lifted you up. Be content with your glory, and stay at home, for why should you provoke trouble so that you fall, you and Judah with you?” 11 But Amaziah would not listen. So Jehoash king of Israel went up, and he and Amaziah king of Judah faced one another in battle at Beth-shemesh, which belongs to Judah. 12 And Judah was defeated by Israel, and every man fled to his home. 13 And Jehoash king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Jehoash, son of Ahaziah, at Beth-shemesh, and came to Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem for four hundred cubits,[d] from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate. 14 And he seized all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the Lord and in the treasuries of the king's house, also hostages, and he returned to Samaria. 15 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash that 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 place. 17 Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, lived fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel. 18 Now the rest of the deeds of Amaziah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? 19 And they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But they sent after him to Lachish and put him to death there. 20 And they brought him on horses; and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David. 21 And all the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah. 22 He built Elath and restored it to Judah, after 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 he reigned forty-one years. 24 And he did what was evil in the sight of the Lord. He did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin. 25 He restored the border of Israel from Lebo-hamath as far as the Sea of the Arabah, according to the word of the Lord, the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonah the son of Amittai, the prophet, who was from Gath-hepher. 26 For the Lord saw that the affliction of Israel was very bitter, for there was none left, bond or free, and there was none to help Israel. 27 But the Lord had not said that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, so 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 fought, and how he restored Damascus and Hamath to Judah in Israel, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel? 29 And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, the kings of Israel, and Zechariah his son reigned in his place. 23 After spending some time there, he departed and went from one place to the next through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples. 24 Now a Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, competent in the Scriptures. 25 He had been instructed in the way of the Lord. And being fervent in spirit,[a] he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John. 26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue, but when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately. 27 And when he wished to cross to Achaia, the brothers encouraged him and wrote to the disciples to welcome him. When he arrived, he greatly helped those who through grace had believed, 28 for he powerfully refuted the Jews in public, showing by the Scriptures that the Christ was Jesus. 19 And it happened that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the inland[b] country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples. 2 And he said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” And they said, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” 3 And he said, “Into what then were you baptized?” They said, “Into John's baptism.” 4 And Paul said, “John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, Jesus.” 5 On hearing this, they were baptized in[c] the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And when Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they began speaking in tongues and prophesying. 7 There were about twelve men in all. 8 And he entered the synagogue and for three months spoke boldly, reasoning and persuading them about the kingdom of God. 9 But when some became stubborn and continued in unbelief, speaking evil of the Way before the congregation, he withdrew from them and took the disciples with him, reasoning daily in the hall of Tyrannus.[d] 10 This continued for two years, so that all the residents of Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks. 11 And God was doing extraordinary miracles by the hands of Paul, 12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons that had touched his skin were carried away to the sick, and their diseases left them and the evil spirits came out of them. 146 Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, O my soul! 2 I will praise the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being. 3 Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation. 4 When his breath departs, he returns to the earth; on that very day his plans perish. 5 Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God, 6 who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, who keeps faith forever; 7 who executes justice for the oppressed, who gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets the prisoners free; 8 the Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down; the Lord loves the righteous. 9 The Lord watches over the sojourners; he upholds the widow and the fatherless, but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin. 10 The Lord will reign forever, your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the Lord! 2 A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion. 3 When wickedness comes, contempt comes also, and with dishonor comes disgrace.

2 राजा 14Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) अमस्याह यहूदामा आफ्नो शासन शुरू गर्छन् 14 यहूदाका राजा योआशका छोरा अमस्याह इस्राएलका राजा योआहजाका छोरा योआशको शासनकालको दोस्रो बर्ष राजा भए। 2 जब उनले शासन गर्न शुरू गर्दा अमस्याह पच्चीस बर्षका थिए। अमस्याहले यरूशलेममा उनन्तीस बर्ष शासन गरे। अमस्याहकी आमा यहोअदीन यरूशलेमकी थिइन्। 3 अमस्याहले ती कामहरू गरे जो परमप्रभुले सही भन्नुभएको थियो, तर उनले आफ्ना पुर्खा दाऊदले जस्तै सम्पूर्ण रूपले परमेश्वरको अनुशरण गरेनन्। अमस्याहले ती सबै कामहरू गरे जो उनका पिता योआशले गरेका थिए। 4 उनले अग्लो ठाउँहरू नष्ट पारेनन्। मानिसहरू अझै ती पूजा स्थलहरूमा बलिहरू र धूपबलि जलाउने गर्दथे। 5 जुन समयमा अमस्याहले राज्यलाई कडा नियन्त्रणमा राखेका थिए, उनले अधिकारीहरूलाई मारे जसले उनका पितालाई मारेका थिए। 6 तर उसले हत्याराहरूका नानीहरूलाई मारेनन् किनभने मोशाको व्यवस्थाको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका थिए। परमप्रभुले मोशाको व्यवस्थामा यस्तो आदेश दिनुभएको थियो, “माता-पिताहरूलाई उनका नानीहरूले केही गरेकोमा मार्नु हुँदैन। अनि नानिहरूलाई उनका माता-पिताहरूले केही गरेकोमा मार्नु हुँदैन। एक जना मानिसहरूलाई उसले गरेको भूल काम वापत नै मात्र मार्नु पर्छ।” 7 अमस्याहले नूनको बेंसीमा 10,000 एदोमीहरूलाई मारे र युद्धमा अमस्याहरूले सेनालाई जिते अनि त्यस ठाउको नाउँ “योक्तेल” राखे। त्यो ठाउँ आजसम्म “योक्तेल” भनिन्छ। अमस्याह योआशको विरोधमा युद्ध चाहन्छन् 8 अमस्याहले इस्राएलका राजा येहूका नाती, योआहाजका छोरा योआशकहाँ दूत पठाए। अमस्याहको सन्देश थियो, “आऊ, हामी आपस्तमा मुखा-मुख गर्यौ अनि युद्ध गर्यौ।” 9 इस्राएलका राजा योआशले यहूदाका राजा अमस्याहलाई उत्तर पठाए। योआशले भने, “लबानोनका एउटा काँडे झाडीले लबानोनकै देवदारूको रूखलाई खबर पठायो। यसले भन्यो, ‘तिमीले आफ्नी छोरी मेरो छोरालाई बिवाह गर्न देऊ।’ तर लबानोनको एउटा जंगली जनावर त्यहाँ त्यतै तिरबाट गयो अनि काँडे झाडीलाई कुल्चि दियो। 10 साँचो हो, तिमीले एदोमलाई जितेका छौ। तर एदोमलाई जितेको कारणले गर्दा तिमी घमण्डी भएका छौ। तर घरमा नै बस र खुशी मनाऊ। आफ्नो लागि सङ्कट सृष्टि नगर। यदि तिमी यस्तो गर्छौ, तिमी लड्ने छौ अनि तिमीसँगै यहूदाको पतन हुनेछ।” 11 तर अमस्याहले योआशको चेताउनी नसुने जस्तो गरे। यसकारण इस्राएलका राजा योआश यहूदाको वेतशेमेशमा यहूदाका राजा अमस्याहको विरोधमा युद्ध गर्न हिंडे। 12 इस्राएलले यहूदालाई परास्त गर्यो। यहूदा घरतिर भाग्यो। 13 बेतशेमेशमा, योआश, इस्राएलका राजाले अहज्याहका नाति र योआशका छोराले, यहूदाका राजा अमस्याहलाई बन्दी बनाए। योआशले 400 हातको यरूशलेमको भित्ता एप्रैम द्वार देखि कुनाको द्वारसम्म भत्काए। 14 तब योआशले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर र राजाको महलको भन्डारबाट सबै सुन चाँदी र सबै भाँडा-कुँडाहरू लगे। योआशले मानिसहरूलाई बन्दीको रूपमा पनि लगे। तब योआश समारिया फर्के। 15 सबै महान कार्यहरू योआशले गरे जसमा उनले यहूदाका राजा अमस्याहको विरोधमा कसरी युद्ध गरे। इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छ। 16 योआश मरे अनि उनलाई पुर्खाहरू सँगै गाडियो। योआशलाई इस्राएलका राजाहरूसँगै सामरियामा गाडियो। योआशका छोरा यारोबाम उनीपछि नयाँ राजा भए। अमस्याहको मृत्यु 17 यहूदाका राजा योआशका छोरा अमस्याह इस्राएलका राजा योआहाजका छोरा योआशको मृत्युपछि 15 बर्ष बाँचे। 18 सबै कुराहरू जो अमस्याहले गरे यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासमा लेखिएको छ। 19 मानिसहरूले येरूशलेममा अमस्याहको विरूद्धमा षड्यन्त्र बनाए। अमस्याह लाकीशतिर भागे। तर मानिसहरूले अमस्याहको पछि केही मानिसहरू लाकीशमा पठाए र तिनीलाई त्यहीं ठाउँमा मारे। 20 मानिसहरूले अमस्याहको लाश घोडाहरूमा ल्याए। अमस्याहलाई दाऊदको शहरमा उनका पिता-पुर्खाहरूसँगै गाडे। अजर्याह यहूदामा आफ्नो शासन शुरू गर्छन् 21 तब यहूदाका सबै मानिसरूले अजर्याहलाई नयाँ राजा बनाए अजर्याह 16 बर्षका थिए। 22 यसकारण राजा अमस्याह मरे अनि उनलाई उनका पुर्खाहरूसँगै गाडियो। तब अजर्याहले एलतलाई फेरि राजा बनाए अनि यसलाई यहूदामा फर्काइदिए। यारोबाम दोस्रो इस्राएलमा आफ्नो शासन शुरू गर्छन् 23 इस्राएलका राजा योआशका छोरा यारोबामले यहूदाका राजा योआशका छोरा अमस्याहको शासनकालको पन्ध्रौं बर्षमा शासन शुरू गरे। यारोबामले 41 बर्ष शासन गरे। 24 यारोबामले ती कामहरू गरे जसलाई परमप्रभुले भूल भन्नुभएको थियो। यारोबामले नबातका छोरा यारोबामको पाप काम बन्द गरेनन् जसले इस्राएललाई पाप गर्न लगायो। 25 यारोबामले इस्राएलको भूमि फिर्ता लिए जो लेबो हमात देखि अराबाको सागरसम्म फिंजिएको थियो। यो त्यसरी नै भयो जस्तो इस्राएलका परमप्रभुले उहाँको दास अमित्तैक छोरा अगमवक्ता योना, गात हेपेरबाटकाले भन्नुभएको थियो। 26 परमप्रभुले त्यो देख्नु भयो सबै इस्राएली, दास हुन वा स्वतन्त्र, सङ्कटमा परेका थिए। इस्राएललाई मद्दत गर्न कोही मानिस थिएन। 27 परमप्रभुले इस्राएलको नाउँ संसारबाट हटाउनेछु भन्नुभएको थिएन यसकारण परमप्रभुले योआशका छोरा यारोबामलाई इस्राएलका मानिस बचाउनमा प्रयोग गरे। 28 सबै महान कामहरू जो यारोबामले गरे, इस्राएलका राजाहरूको इतिहास पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छ। यसमा यारोबामले इस्राएलका लागि दमीशक र हमात जितेर फिर्ता लिएको कथा सामेल छ। (यी शहरहरू यहूदाका थिए।) 29 यारोबाम मरे अनि उनलाई इस्राएलका उनका आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसँगै गाडियो। यारोबामका छोरा जकर्याह उनीपछि नयाँ राजा भए।
