- 現在你們當聽我說、要將擄來的弟兄釋放回去、因為耶和華向你們已經大發烈怒。
- 於是以法蓮人的幾個族長、就是約哈難的兒子亞撒利雅、米實利末的兒子比利家、沙龍的兒子耶希西家、哈得萊的兒子亞瑪撒、起來攔擋出兵回來的人、
- 對他們說、你們不可帶進這被擄的人來.你們想要使我們得罪耶和華、加增我們的罪惡過犯、因為我們的罪過甚大、已經有烈怒臨到以色列人了。
- 於是帶兵器的人將擄來的人口、和掠來的財物、都留在眾首領和會眾的面前。
- 以上題名的那些人就站起、使被擄的人前來、其中有赤身的、就從所掠的財物中拿出衣服和鞋來、給他們穿.又給他們喫喝、用膏抹他們.其中有軟弱的、就使他們騎驢、送到棕樹城耶利哥他們弟兄那裡.隨後就回撒瑪利亞去了。

- "Now therefore, listen to me and return the captives whom you captured from your brothers, for the burning anger of the LORD is against you."
- Then some of the heads of the sons of Ephraim--Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai--arose against those who were coming from the battle,
- and said to them, "You must not bring the captives in here, for you are proposing to bring upon us guilt against the LORD adding to our sins and our guilt; for our guilt is great so that His burning anger is against Israel."
- So the armed men left the captives and the spoil before the officers and all the assembly.
- Then the men who were designated by name arose, took the captives, and they clothed all their naked ones from the spoil; and they gave them clothes and sandals, fed them and gave them drink, anointed them with oil, led all their feeble ones on donkeys, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brothers; then they returned to Samaria.
