列王纪上 15
1 尼八的儿子耶罗波安王十八年，亚比央登基作犹大王，
Now in the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, Abiam reigned over Juda.
2 在耶路撒冷作王三年。他母亲名叫玛迦，是押沙龙的女儿。
He reigned three years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Maacha the daughter of Abessalom.
3 亚比央行他父亲在他以前所行的一切恶，他的心不像他祖大卫的心，诚诚实实地顺服耶和华—他的 神。
And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father.
4 然而耶和华—他的 神因大卫的缘故，仍使他在耶路撒冷有灯光，叫他儿子接续他作王，坚立耶路撒冷。
But for David’s sake the Lord his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem:
5 因为大卫除 了赫人乌利亚那件事，都是行耶和 华眼中看为正的事，一生没有违背 耶和华一切所吩咐的。
Because David had done that which was right in the eyes of the Lord, and had not turned aside from any thing that he commanded him, all the days of his life, except the matter of Urias the Hethite.
6 罗波安在 世的日子常与耶罗波安争战。
But there was war between Roboam and Jeroboam all the time of his life.
7 亚 比央其余的事，凡他所行的，都写在犹大列王记上。亚比央常与耶罗波安争战。
And the rest of the words of Abiam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? And there was war between Abiam and Jeroboam.
8 亚比央与他列祖同睡， 葬在大卫的城里。他儿子亚撒接续他作王。
And Abiam slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David, and Asa his son reigned in his stead.
9 以色列王耶罗波安二十年，亚撒登基作犹大王，
So in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, reigned Asa king of Juda,
10 在耶路撒冷作王四十一年。他祖母名叫玛迦，是押沙龙的女儿。
And he reigned one and forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Maacha, the daughter of Abessalom.
11 亚撒效法他祖大卫行耶和华眼中看为正的事，
And Asa did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, as did David his father:
12 从国中除去娈童，又除掉他列祖所造的一切偶像；
And he took away the effeminate out of the land, and he removed all the filth of the idols, which his fathers had made.
13 并且贬了他祖母玛迦太后的位，因她造了可憎的偶像亚舍拉。亚撒砍下她的偶像，烧在汲沦溪边，
Moreover he also removed his mother Maacha, from being the princess in the sacrifices of Priapus, and in the grove which she had consecrated to him: and he destroyed her den, and broke in pieces the filthy idol, and burnt it by the torrent Cedron:
14 只是邱坛还没有废去。亚撒一生却向耶和华存诚实的心。
But the high places he did not take away. Nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect with the Lord all his days:
15 亚撒将他父亲所分别为圣与自己所分别为圣的金银和器皿都奉到耶和华的殿里。
And he brought in the things which his father had dedicated, and he had vowed, into the house of the Lord, silver and gold, and vessels.
16 亚撒和以色列王巴沙在世的日子常常争战。
And there was war between Asa, and Baasa king of Israel all their days.
17 以色列王巴沙上来要攻击犹大，修筑拉玛，不许人从犹大王亚撒那里出入。
And Baasa king of Israel went up against Juda, and built Rama, that no man might go out or come in, of the side of Asa king of Juda.
18 于是亚撒将耶和华殿和王宫府库里所剩下的金银都交在他臣仆手中，打发他们往住大马士革的亚兰王—希旬的孙子、他伯利们的儿子便·哈达那里去，
Then Asa took all the silver and gold that remained in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king’s house, and delivered it into the hands of his servants: and sent them to Benadad son of Tabremon the son of Hezion, king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:
19 说：“你父曾与我父立约，我与你也要立约。现在我将金银送你为礼物，求你废掉你与以色列王巴沙所立的约，使他离开我。”
There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: therefore I have sent thee presents of silver and gold: and I desire thee to come, and break thy league with Baasa king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
20 便·哈达听从亚撒王的话，派军长去攻击以色列的城邑；他们就攻破以云、但、亚伯·伯·玛迦、基尼烈全境、拿弗他利全境。
Benadad hearkening to king Asa, sent the captains of his army against the cities of Israel, and they smote Ahion, and Dan, and Abeldomum Maacha, and all Cenneroth, that is all the land of Nephtali.
21 巴沙听见，就停工不修筑拉玛了，仍住在得撒。
And when Baasa had heard this, he left off building Rama, and returned into Thersa.
22 于是亚撒王宣告犹大众人，不准一个推辞，吩咐他们将巴沙修筑拉玛所用的石头、木头都运去，用以修筑便雅悯的迦巴和米斯巴。
But king Asa sent word into all Juda, saying: Let no man be excused: and they took away the stones from Rama, and the timber thereof wherewith Baasa had been building, and with them Asa built Gabaa of Benjamin, and Maspha.
23 亚撒其余的事，凡他所行的，并他的勇力与他所建筑的城邑，都写在犹大列王记上。亚撒年老的时候，脚上有病。
But the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his strength, and all that he did and the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? But in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
24 亚撒与他列祖同睡，葬在他祖大卫城他列祖的坟地里。他儿子约沙法接续他作王。
And he slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David his father. And Josaphat his son reigned in his place.
25 犹大王亚撒第二年，耶罗波安的儿子拿答登基作以色列王共二年，
But Nadab the son of Jeroboam reigned over Israel the second year of Asa king of Juda: and he reigned over Israel two years.
26 拿答行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，行他父亲所行的，犯他父亲使以色列人陷在罪里的那罪。
And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the ways of his father, and in his sins, wherewith he made Israel to sin.
27 以萨迦人亚希雅的儿子巴沙背叛拿答，在非利士的基比顿杀了他。那时拿答和以色列众人正围困基比顿。
And Baasa the son of Ahias of the house of Issachar, conspired against him, and slew him in Gebbethon, which is a city of the Philistines: for Nadab and all Israel besieged Gebbethon.
28 在犹大王亚撒第三年巴沙杀了他，篡了他的位。
So Baasa slew him in the third year of Asa king of Juda, and reigned in his place.
29 巴沙一作王就杀了耶罗波安的全家，凡有气息的没有留下一个，都灭尽了，正应验耶和华借他仆人示罗人亚希雅所说的话。
And when he was king he cut off all the house of Jeroboam: he left not so much as one soul of his seed, till he had utterly destroyed him, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken in the hand of Ahias the Silonite:
30 这是因为耶罗波安所犯的罪使以色列人陷在罪里，惹动耶和华—以色列 神的怒气。
Because of the sin of Jeroboam, which he had sinned, and wherewith he had made Israel to sin, and for the offence, wherewith he provoked the Lord the God of Israel.
31 拿答其余的事，凡他所行的，都写在以色列诸王记上。
But the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
32 亚撒和以色列王巴沙在世的日子常常争战。
And there was war between Asa and Baasa the king of Israel all their days.
33 犹大王亚撒第三年，亚希雅的儿子巴沙在得撒登基作以色列众人的王共二十四年。
In the third year of Asa king of Juda, Baasa the son of Ahias reigned over all Israel, in Thersa, four and twenty years.
34 他行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，行耶罗波安所行的道，犯他使以色列人陷在罪里的那罪。
And he did evil before the Lord, and walked in the ways of Jeroboam, and in his sins, wherewith he made Israel to sin.
