1 καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἦλθον οἱ υἱοὶ Μωαβ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Αμμων καὶ μετ' αὐτῶν ἐκ τῶν Μιναίων πρὸς Ιωσαφατ εἰς πόλεμον 2 καὶ ἦλθον καὶ ὑπέδειξαν τῷ Ιωσαφατ λέγοντες ἥκει ἐπὶ σὲ πλῆθος πολὺ ἐκ πέραν τῆς θαλάσσης ἀπὸ Συρίας καὶ ἰδού εἰσιν ἐν Ασασανθαμαρ αὕτη ἐστὶν Ενγαδδι 3 καὶ ἐφοβήθη καὶ ἔδωκεν Ιωσαφατ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐκζητῆσαι τὸν κύριον καὶ ἐκήρυξεν νηστείαν ἐν παντὶ Ιουδα 4 καὶ συνήχθη Ιουδας ἐκζητῆσαι τὸν κύριον καὶ ἀπὸ πασῶν τῶν πόλεων Ιουδα ἦλθον ζητῆσαι τὸν κύριον 5 καὶ ἀνέστη Ιωσαφατ ἐν ἐκκλησίᾳ Ιουδα ἐν Ιερουσαλημ ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς αὐλῆς τῆς καινῆς 6 καὶ εἶπεν κύριε ὁ θεὸς τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν οὐχὶ σὺ εἶ θεὸς ἐν οὐρανῷ καὶ σὺ κυριεύεις πασῶν τῶν βασιλειῶν τῶν ἐθνῶν καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρί σου ἰσχὺς δυναστείας καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν πρὸς σὲ ἀντιστῆναι 7 οὐχὶ σὺ εἶ ὁ κύριος ὁ ἐξολεθρεύσας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν ταύτην ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ λαοῦ σου Ισραηλ καὶ ἔδωκας αὐτὴν σπέρματι Αβρααμ τῷ ἠγαπημένῳ σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα 8 καὶ κατῴκησαν ἐν αὐτῇ καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν ἐν αὐτῇ ἁγίασμα τῷ ὀνόματί σου λέγοντες 9 ἐὰν ἐπέλθῃ ἐφ' ἡμᾶς κακά ῥομφαία κρίσις θάνατος λιμός στησόμεθα ἐναντίον τοῦ οἴκου τούτου καὶ ἐναντίον σου ὅτι τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐπὶ τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ καὶ βοησόμεθα πρὸς σὲ ἀπὸ τῆς θλίψεως καὶ ἀκούσῃ καὶ σώσεις 10 καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ υἱοὶ Αμμων καὶ Μωαβ καὶ ὄρος Σηιρ εἰς οὓς οὐκ ἔδωκας τῷ Ισραηλ διελθεῖν δι' αὐτῶν ἐξελθόντων αὐτῶν ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου ὅτι ἐξέκλιναν ἀπ' αὐτῶν καὶ οὐκ ἐξωλέθρευσαν αὐτούς 11 καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ αὐτοὶ ἐπιχειροῦσιν ἐφ' ἡμᾶς ἐξελθεῖν ἐκβαλεῖν ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ τῆς κληρονομίας ἡμῶν ἧς ἔδωκας ἡμῖν 12 κύριε ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν οὐ κρινεῖς ἐν αὐτοῖς ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἡμῖν ἰσχὺς τοῦ ἀντιστῆναι πρὸς τὸ πλῆθος τὸ πολὺ τοῦτο τὸ ἐλθὸν ἐφ' ἡμᾶς καὶ οὐκ οἴδαμεν τί ποιήσωμεν αὐτοῖς ἀλλ' ἢ ἐπὶ σοὶ οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ ἡμῶν 1 After this the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them of the Ammonites, were gathered together to fight against Josaphat. 2 And there came messengers, and told Josaphat, saying: There comes a great multitude against you from beyond the sea, and out of Syria, and behold they are in Asasonthamar, which is Engaddi. 3 And Josaphat being seized with fear betook himself wholly to pray to the Lord, and he proclaimed a fast for all Juda. 4 And Juda gathered themselves together to pray to the Lord: and all came out of their cities to make supplication to him. 5 And Josaphat stood in the midst of the assembly of Juda, and Jerusalem, in the house of the Lord before the new court, 6 and said: O Lord God of our fathers, you are God in heaven, and rule over all the kingdoms and nations, in your hand is strength and power, and no one can resist you. 7 Did not you our God kill all the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel, and gave it to the seed of Abraham your friend for ever? 8 And they dwelt in it, and built in it a sanctuary to your name, saying: 9 If evils fall upon us, the sword of judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we will stand in your presence before this house, in which your name is called upon: and we will cry to you in our afflictions, and you will hear, and save us. 10 Now therefore behold the children of Ammon, and of Moab, and mount Seir, through whose lands you did not allow Israel to pass, when they came out of Egypt, but they turned aside from them, and slew them not, 11 do the contrary, and endeavour to cast us out of the possession which you have delivered to us. 12 O our God, will you not then judge them? As for us we have not strength enough, to be able to resist this multitude, which comes violently upon us. But as we know not what to do, we can only turn our eyes to you. 1 Post hæc congregati sunt filii Moab et filii Ammon, et cum eis de Ammonitis, ad Josaphat, ut pugnarent contra eum. 2 Veneruntque nuntii, et indicaverunt Josaphat, dicentes : Venit contra te multitudo magna de his locis quæ trans mare sunt, et de Syria : et ecce consistunt in Asasonthamar, quæ est Engaddi. 3 Josaphat autem timore perterritus, totum se contulit ad rogandum Dominum, et prædicavit jejunium universo Juda. 4 Congregatusque est Judas ad deprecandum Dominum : sed et omnes de urbibus suis venerunt ad obsecrandum eum. 5 Cumque stetisset Josaphat in medio cœtu Juda et Jerusalem, in domo Domini ante atrium novum, 6 ait : Domine Deus patrum nostrorum, tu es Deus in cælo, et dominaris cunctis regnis gentium : in manu tua est fortitudo et potentia, nec quisquam tibi potest resistere. 7 Nonne tu, Deus noster, interfecisti omnes habitatores terræ hujus coram populo tuo Israël, et dedisti eam semini Abraham amici tui in sempiternum? 8 Habitaveruntque in ea, et exstruxerunt in illa sanctuarium nomini tuo, dicentes: 9 Si irruerint super nos mala, gladius judicii, pestilentia, et fames, stabimus coram domo hac in conspectu tuo, in qua invocatum est nomen tuum : et clamabimus ad te in tribulationibus nostris, et exaudies, salvosque facies. 10 Nunc igitur, ecce filii Ammon, et Moab, et mons Seir, per quos non concessisti Israël ut transirent quando egrediebantur de Ægypto, sed declinaverunt ab eis, et non interfecerunt illos, 11 e contrario agunt, et nituntur ejicere nos de possessione quam tradidisti nobis. 12 Deus noster, ergo non judicabis eos? in nobis quidem non est tanta fortitudo, ut possimus huic multitudini resistere, quæ irruit super nos. Sed cum ignoremus quid agere debeamus, hoc solum habemus residui, ut oculos nostros dirigamus ad te.
13 καὶ πᾶς Ιουδας ἑστηκὼς ἔναντι κυρίου καὶ τὰ παιδία αὐτῶν καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες 14 καὶ τῷ Οζιηλ τῷ τοῦ Ζαχαριου τῶν υἱῶν Βαναιου τῶν υἱῶν Ελεηλ τοῦ Μανθανιου τοῦ Λευίτου ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν Ασαφ ἐγένετο ἐπ' αὐτὸν πνεῦμα κυρίου ἐν τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ 15 καὶ εἶπεν ἀκούσατε πᾶς Ιουδα καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς Ιωσαφατ τάδε λέγει κύριος ὑμῖν αὐτοῖς μὴ φοβεῖσθε μηδὲ πτοηθῆτε ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ ὄχλου τοῦ πολλοῦ τούτου ὅτι οὐχ ὑμῖν ἐστιν ἡ παράταξις ἀλλ' ἢ τῷ θεῷ 16 αὔριον κατάβητε ἐπ' αὐτούς ἰδοὺ ἀναβαίνουσιν κατὰ τὴν ἀνάβασιν Ασας καὶ εὑρήσετε αὐτοὺς ἐπ' ἄκρου ποταμοῦ τῆς ἐρήμου Ιεριηλ 17 οὐχ ὑμῖν ἐστιν πολεμῆσαι ταῦτα σύνετε καὶ ἴδετε τὴν σωτηρίαν κυρίου μεθ' ὑμῶν Ιουδα καὶ Ιερουσαλημ μὴ φοβεῖσθε μηδὲ πτοηθῆτε αὔριον ἐξελθεῖν εἰς ἀπάντησιν αὐτοῖς καὶ κύριος μεθ' ὑμῶν 18 καὶ κύψας Ιωσαφατ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶς Ιουδα καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες Ιερουσαλημ ἔπεσαν ἔναντι κυρίου προσκυνῆσαι κυρίῳ 19 καὶ ἀνέστησαν οἱ Λευῖται ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν Κααθ καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν Κορε αἰνεῖν κυρίῳ θεῷ Ισραηλ ἐν φωνῇ μεγάλῃ εἰς ὕψος 13 And all Juda stood before the Lord with their little ones, and their wives, and their children. 14 And Jahaziel the son of Zacharias, the son of Banaias, the son of Jehiel, the son of Mathanias, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, was there, upon whom the spirit of the Lord came in the midst of the multitude, 15 and he said: Attend, all Juda, and you that dwell in Jerusalem, and you King Josaphat: Thus says the Lord to you: Fear not, and be not dismayed at this multitude: for the battle is not yours, but God's. 16 Tomorrow you shall go down against them: for they will come up by the ascent named Sis, and you shall find them at the head of the torrent, which is over against the wilderness of Jeruel. 17 It shall not be you that shall fight, but only stand with confidence, and you shall see the help of the Lord over you, O Juda, and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed: tomorrow you shall go out against them, and the Lord will be with you. 18 Then Josaphat, and Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell flat on the ground before the Lord, and adored him. 19 And the Levites of the sons of Caath, and of the sons of Core praised the Lord the God of Israel with a loud voice, on high. 13 Omnis vero Juda stabat coram Domino cum parvulis, et uxoribus, et liberis suis. 14 Erat autem Jahaziel filius Zachariæ filii Banaiæ filii Jehiel filii Mathaniæ, Levites de filiis Asaph, super quem factus est spiritus Domini, in medio turbæ, 15 et ait : Attendite, omnis Juda, et qui habitatis Jerusalem, et tu, rex Josaphat : hæc dicit Dominus vobis : Nolite timere, nec paveatis hanc multitudinem : non est enim vestra pugna, sed Dei. 16 Cras descendetis contra eos : ascensuri enim sunt per clivum nomine Sis, et invenietis illos in summitate torrentis qui est contra solitudinem Jeruel. 17 Non eritis vos qui dimicabitis, sed tantummodo confidenter state, et videbitis auxilium Domini super vos, o Juda et Jerusalem : nolite timere, nec paveatis : cras egrediemini contra eos, et Dominus erit vobiscum. 18 Josaphat ergo, et Juda, et omnes habitatores Jerusalem ceciderunt proni in terram coram Domino, et adoraverunt eum. 19 Porro Levitæ de filiis Caath et de filiis Core laudabant Dominum Deum Israël voce magna in excelsum.
20 καὶ ὤρθρισαν πρωὶ καὶ ἐξῆλθον εἰς τὴν ἔρημον Θεκωε καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐξελθεῖν ἔστη Ιωσαφατ καὶ ἐβόησεν καὶ εἶπεν ἀκούσατέ μου Ιουδα καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐν Ιερουσαλημ ἐμπιστεύσατε ἐν κυρίῳ θεῷ ὑμῶν καὶ ἐμπιστευθήσεσθε ἐμπιστεύσατε ἐν προφήτῃ αὐτοῦ καὶ εὐοδωθήσεσθε 21 καὶ ἐβουλεύσατο μετὰ τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ ἔστησεν ψαλτῳδοὺς καὶ αἰνοῦντας ἐξομολογεῖσθαι καὶ αἰνεῖν τὰ ἅγια ἐν τῷ ἐξελθεῖν ἔμπροσθεν τῆς δυνάμεως καὶ ἔλεγον ἐξομολογεῖσθε τῷ κυρίῳ ὅτι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ 22 καὶ ἐν τῷ ἄρξασθαι τῆς αἰνέσεως αὐτοῦ τῆς ἐξομολογήσεως ἔδωκεν κύριος πολεμεῖν τοὺς υἱοὺς Αμμων ἐπὶ Μωαβ καὶ ὄρος Σηιρ τοὺς ἐξελθόντας ἐπὶ Ιουδαν καὶ ἐτροπώθησαν 23 καὶ ἀνέστησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Αμμων καὶ Μωαβ ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ὄρος Σηιρ ἐξολεθρεῦσαι καὶ ἐκτρῖψαι καὶ ὡς συνετέλεσαν τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Σηιρ ἀνέστησαν εἰς ἀλλήλους τοῦ ἐξολεθρευθῆναι 24 καὶ Ιουδας ἦλθεν ἐπὶ τὴν σκοπιὰν τῆς ἐρήμου καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν καὶ εἶδεν τὸ πλῆθος καὶ ἰδοὺ πάντες νεκροὶ πεπτωκότες ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς οὐκ ἦν σῳζόμενος 25 καὶ ἦλθεν Ιωσαφατ καὶ ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ σκυλεῦσαι τὰ σκῦλα αὐτῶν καὶ εὗρον κτήνη πολλὰ καὶ ἀποσκευὴν καὶ σκῦλα καὶ σκεύη ἐπιθυμητὰ καὶ ἐσκύλευσαν ἑαυτοῖς καὶ ἐγένοντο ἡμέραι τρεῖς σκυλευόντων αὐτῶν τὰ σκῦλα ὅτι πολλὰ ἦν 26 καὶ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τετάρτῃ ἐπισυνήχθησαν εἰς τὸν αὐλῶνα τῆς εὐλογίας ἐκεῖ γὰρ ηὐλόγησαν τὸν κύριον διὰ τοῦτο ἐκάλεσαν τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου Κοιλὰς εὐλογίας ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης 27 καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν πᾶς ἀνὴρ Ιουδα εἰς Ιερουσαλημ καὶ Ιωσαφατ ἡγούμενος αὐτῶν ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ μεγάλῃ ὅτι εὔφρανεν αὐτοὺς κύριος ἀπὸ τῶν ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν 28 καὶ εἰσῆλθον εἰς Ιερουσαλημ ἐν νάβλαις καὶ ἐν κινύραις καὶ ἐν σάλπιγξιν εἰς οἶκον κυρίου 29 καὶ ἐγένετο ἔκστασις κυρίου ἐπὶ πάσας τὰς βασιλείας τῆς γῆς ἐν τῷ ἀκοῦσαι αὐτοὺς ὅτι ἐπολέμησεν κύριος πρὸς τοὺς ὑπεναντίους Ισραηλ 30 καὶ εἰρήνευσεν ἡ βασιλεία Ιωσαφατ καὶ κατέπαυσεν αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς αὐτοῦ κυκλόθεν 20 And they rose early in the morning, and went out through the desert of Thecua: and as they were marching, Josaphat standing in the midst of them, said: Hear me, you men of Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be secure: believe his prophets, and all things shall succeed well. 21 And he gave counsel to the people, and appointed the singing men of the Lord, to praise him by their companies, and to go before the army, and with one voice to say: Give glory to the Lord, for his mercy endures for ever. 22 And when they began to sing praises, the Lord turned their ambushments upon themselves, that is to say, of the children of Ammon, and of Moab, and of mount Seir, who had come out to fight against Juda, and they were slain. 23 For the children of Ammon, and of Moab, rose up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, to kill and destroy them: and when they had made an end of them, they turned also against one another, and destroyed one another. 24 And when Juda came to the watch tower, that looks toward the desert, they saw afar off all the country, for a great space, full of dead bodies, and that no one was left that could escape death. 25 Then Josaphat came, and all the people with him to take away the spoils of the dead, and they found among the dead bodies, stuff of various kinds, and garments, and most precious vessels: and they took them for themselves, insomuch that they could not carry all, nor in three days take away the spoils, the booty was so great. 26 And on the fourth day they were assembled in the valley of Blessing: for there they blessed the Lord, and therefore they called that place the valley of Blessing until this day. 27 And every man of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem returned, and Josaphat at their head, into Jerusalem with great joy, because the Lord had made them rejoice over their enemies. 28 And they came into Jerusalem with psalteries, and harps, and trumpets into the house of the Lord. 29 And the fear of the Lord fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands when they heard that the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel. 30 And the kingdom of Josaphat was quiet, and God gave him peace round about. 20 Cumque mane surrexissent, egressi sunt per desertum Thecue : profectisque eis, stans Josaphat in medio eorum, dixit : Audite me, viri Juda, et omnes habitatores Jerusalem : credite in Domino Deo vestro, et securi eritis : credite prophetis ejus, et cuncta evenient prospera. 21 Deditque consilium populo, et statuit cantores Domini ut laudarent eum in turmis suis, et antecederent exercitum, ac voce consona dicerent : Confitemini Domino quoniam in æternum misericordia ejus. 22 Cumque cœpissent laudes canere, vertit Dominus insidias eorum in semetipsos, filiorum scilicet Ammon, et Moab, et montis Seir, qui egressi fuerant ut pugnarent contra Judam : et percussi sunt. 23 Namque filii Ammon et Moab consurrexerunt adversum habitatores montis Seir, ut interficerent et delerent eos : cumque hoc opere perpetrassent, etiam in semetipsos versi, mutuis concidere vulneribus. 24 Porro Juda, cum venisset ad speculam quæ respicit solitudinem, vidit procul omnem late regionem plenam cadaveribus, nec superesse quemquam qui necem potuisset evadere. 25 Venit ergo Josaphat, et omnis populus cum eo, ad detrahenda spolia mortuorum : inveneruntque inter cadavera variam supellectilem, vestes quoque, et vasa pretiosissima, et diripuerunt ita ut omnia portare non possent, nec per tres dies spolia auferre præ prædæ magnitudine. 26 Die autem quarto congregati sunt in Valle benedictionis : etenim quoniam ibi benedixerant Domino, vocaverunt locum illum Vallis benedictionis usque in præsentem diem. 27 Reversusque est omnis vir Juda, et habitatores Jerusalem, et Josaphat ante eos, in Jerusalem cum lætitia magna, eo quod dedisset eis Dominus gaudium de inimicis suis. 28 Ingressique sunt in Jerusalem cum psalteriis, et citharis, et tubis in domum Domini. 29 Irruit autem pavor Domini super universa regna terrarum cum audissent quod pugnasset Dominus contra inimicos Israël. 30 Quievitque regnum Josaphat, et præbuit ei Deus pacem per circuitum.
31 καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ιωσαφατ ἐπὶ τὸν Ιουδαν ἐτῶν τριάκοντα πέντε ἐν τῷ βασιλεῦσαι αὐτὸν καὶ εἴκοσι πέντε ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ὄνομα τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ Αζουβα θυγάτηρ Σαλι 32 καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ Ασα καὶ οὐκ ἐξέκλινεν τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον κυρίου 33 ἀλλὰ τὰ ὑψηλὰ ἔτι ὑπῆρχεν καὶ ἔτι ὁ λαὸς οὐ κατεύθυνεν τὴν καρδίαν πρὸς κύριον θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν 34 καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ λόγοι Ιωσαφατ οἱ πρῶτοι καὶ οἱ ἔσχατοι ἰδοὺ γεγραμμένοι ἐν λόγοις Ιου τοῦ Ανανι ὃς κατέγραψεν βιβλίον βασιλέων Ισραηλ 35 καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐκοινώνησεν Ιωσαφατ βασιλεὺς Ιουδα πρὸς Οχοζιαν βασιλέα Ισραηλ καὶ οὗτος ἠνόμησεν 36 ἐν τῷ ποιῆσαι καὶ πορευθῆναι πρὸς αὐτὸν τοῦ ποιῆσαι πλοῖα τοῦ πορευθῆναι εἰς Θαρσις καὶ ἐποίησεν πλοῖα ἐν Γασιωνγαβερ 37 καὶ ἐπροφήτευσεν Ελιεζερ ὁ τοῦ Δωδια ἀπὸ Μαρισης ἐπὶ Ιωσαφατ λέγων ὡς ἐφιλίασας τῷ Οχοζια ἔθραυσεν κύριος τὸ ἔργον σου καὶ συνετρίβη τὰ πλοῖά σου καὶ οὐκ ἐδυνάσθη τοῦ πορευθῆναι εἰς Θαρσις 31 And Josaphat reigned over Juda, and he was five and thirty years old, when he began to reign: and he reigned five and twenty years in Jerusalem: and the name of his mother was Azuba the daughter of Selahi. 32 And he walked in the way of his father Asa and departed not from it, doing the things that were pleasing before the Lord. 33 But yet he took not away the high places, and the people had not yet turned their heart to the Lord the God of their fathers. 34 But the rest of the acts of Josaphat, first and last, are written in the words of Jehu the son of Hanani, which he digested into the books of the kings of Israel. 35 After these things Josaphat king of Juda made friendship with Ochozias king of Israel, whose works were very wicked. 36 And he was partner with him in making ships, to go to Tharsis: and they made the ships in Asiongaber. 37 And Eliezer the son of Dodau of Maresa prophesied to Josaphat, saying: Because you have made a league with Ochozias, the Lord has destroyed your works, and the ships are broken, and they could not go to Tharsis. 31 Regnavit igitur Josaphat super Judam, et erat triginta quinque annorum cum regnare cœpisset : viginti autem et quinque annis regnavit in Jerusalem, et nomen matris ejus Azuba filia Selahi. 32 Et ambulavit in via patris suis Asa, nec declinavit ab ea, faciens quæ placita erant coram Domino. 33 Verumtamen excelsa non abstulit, et adhuc populus non direxerat cor suum ad Dominum Deum patrum suorum. 34 Reliqua autem gestorum Josaphat priorum et novissimorum scripta sunt in verbis Jehu filii Hanani, quæ digessit in libros regum Israël. 35 Post hæc iniit amicitias Josaphat rex Juda cum Ochozia rege Israël, cujus opera fuerunt impiissima. 36 Et particeps fuit ut facerent naves quæ irent in Tharsis: feceruntque classem in Asiongaber. 37 Prophetavit autem Eliezer filius Dodau de Maresa ad Josaphat, dicens : Quia habuisti fœdus cum Ochozia, percussit Dominus opera tua, contritæque sunt naves, nec potuerunt ire in Tharsis.
