10Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thine heart hath lifted thee vp: glory of this, and tary at home: for why shouldest thou meddle to thy hurt, that thou shouldest fall, euen thou, and Iudah with thee? 11But Amaziah would not heare: therefore Iehoash king of Israel went vp, and hee, and Amaziah king of Iudah, looked one another in the face at Bethshemesh, which belongeth to Iudah. 12And Iudah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fled euery man to their tents. 13And Iehoash king of Israel tooke Amaziah king of Iudah, the sonne of Iehoash the sonne of Ahaziah at Bethshemesh, and came to Ierusalem, and brake downe the wall of Ierusalem, from the gate of Ephraim, vnto the corner gate, foure hundred cubites. 14And he tooke all the golde and siluer, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the kings house, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.
