LORD
commanded :
“
Fathers must
not be
put to death for their
children
, and children
must

put to death for their
fathers ;

to

“A
thistle
in Lebanon sent a
message
to
a
cedar in Lebanon, saying, ‘
Give your
daughter to my son in
marriage.’
Then
a wild
beast in Lebanon came
along
and trampled
the thistle
.
And
Jehoash king of Israel sendeth
unto
Amaziah king of Judah ,
saying,
`The
thorn
that
`is'
in Lebanon hath
sent unto
the
cedar that
`is'
in Lebanon, saying, Give thy
daughter to my son for
a wife;
and
pass
by
doth
a
beast of
the
field
that
`is'
in Lebanon ,
and treadeth
down
the thorn
.
You
have
indeed
defeated
Edom, and your
heart has
become
proud.
Glory
in that
and stay
at
home.
Why should
you
stir up trouble
so
that you
fall—you
and Judah with you
? ”
Thou
hast
certainly
smitten
Edom, and thy
heart hath
lifted
thee
up;
be
honoured,
and
abide
in thy
house;
and why dost
thou
stir thyself
up in
evil,
that thou
hast
fallen,
thou,
and Judah with thee
? '

routed
before Israel, and every
man
fled
to his home
