- As he was talking with him, the king said to him, "Have we appointed you a royal counselor? Stop! Why should you be struck down?" Then the prophet stopped and said, "I know that God has planned to destroy you, because you have done this and have not listened to my counsel."
- Then Amaziah king of Judah took counsel and sent to Joash the son of Jehoahaz the son of Jehu, the king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us face each other."
- Joash the king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, "The thorn bush which was in Lebanon sent to the cedar which was in Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son in marriage.' But there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon and trampled the thorn bush.
- "You said, 'Behold, you have defeated Edom.' And your heart has become proud in boasting. Now stay at home; for why should you provoke trouble so that you, even you, would fall and Judah with you?"
- But Amaziah would not listen, for it was from God, that He might deliver them into the hand of Joash because they had sought the gods of Edom.

- 先知與王說話的時候、王對他說、誰立你作王的謀士呢.你住口罷、為何找打呢.先知就止住了.又說、你行這事不聽從我的勸戒、我知道 神定意要滅你。
- 猶大王亞瑪謝與群臣商議、就差遣使者去見耶戶的孫子約哈斯的兒子以色列王約阿施說、你來、我們二人相見於戰場。
- 以色列王約阿施差遣使者去見猶大王亞瑪謝說、利巴嫩的蒺藜、差遣使者去見利巴嫩的香柏樹、說、將你的女兒給我兒子為妻.後來利巴嫩有一個野獸經過、把蒺藜踐踏了。
- 你說、看哪、我打敗了以東人、你就心高氣傲、以致矜誇.你在家裡安居就罷了、為何要惹禍使自己和猶大國一同敗亡呢。
- 亞瑪謝卻不肯聽從.這是出乎 神、好將他們交在敵人手裡、因為他們尋求以東的神。
