Første Kongebog 16

1 Og Herrens Ord skete til Jehu, Hananis Søn, imod Baesa saaledes:

Then came the word of the Lord to Jehu the son of Chanani against Ba'sha, saying,

2 Fordi jeg ophøjede dig af Støvet og satte dig til en Fyrste over mit Folk Israel, og du vandrede i Jeroboams Vej og kom mit Folk Israel til at synde, til at opirre mig med deres Synder:

Forasmuch as I lifted thee up out of the dust, and I set thee as prince over my people Israel; and thou hast walked in the way of Jerobo'am, and hast induced my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins:

3 Se, saa borttager jeg Baesas Efterkommere og hans Hus's Efterkommere, og jeg vil gøre ved dit Hus ligesom ved Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Hus.

Behold, I will sweep out after Ba'sha, and after his house; and I will render thy house like the house of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat;

4 Den, som dør af Baesas i Staden, skulle Hundene æde, og den, der dør af hans paa Marken, skulle Himmelens Fugle æde.

Him that dieth of Ba'sha in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth of his in the field shall the fowls of the heavens eat.

5 Men det øvrige af Baesas Handeler, og hvad han har gjort, og hans Vælde, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Israels Kongers Krønikers Bog?

And the rest of the acts of Ba'sha, and what he did, and his mighty deeds, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

6 Og Baesa laa med sine Fædre og blev begraven i Thirza, og hans Søn Ela blev Konge i hans Sted.

And Ba'sha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Thirzah: and Elah his son became king in his stead.

7 Saa skete ogsaa Herrens Ord ved Jehu, Hananis Søn, Profeten, over Baesa og over hans Hus, baade for alt det onde, som han gjorde for Herrens Øjne til at opirre ham ved sine Hænders Gerning, saa at han blev ligesom Jeroboams Hus, og fordi han havde slaaet dette.

And also by the hand of Jehu the son of Chanani, the prophet, came the word of the Lord against Ba'sha, and against his house, both for all the evil that he did in the eyes of the Lord, to provoke him to anger with the work of his hands, thus being like the house of Jerobo'am; and because he had killed him.

8 I det seks og tyvende Asas, Judas Konges, Aar blev Ela, Baesas Søn, Konge over Israel i Thirza, i to Aar.

In the twenty and sixth year of Assa the king of Judah became Elah the son of Ba'sha king over Israel in Thirzah, [for] two years.

9 Og hans Tjener Simri, Høvedsmand over Halvdelen af Vognene, gjorde et Forbund imod ham, medens han i Thirza drak og var drukken i Arzas Hus, som var Hovmester i Thirza.

And there conspired against him his servant Zimri, captain of half the chariots, as he was in Thirzah, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, who was set over the house in Thirzah.

10 Og Simri kom og slog ham og dræbte ham i det syv og tyvende Asas, Judas Konges, Aar, og blev Konge i hans Sted.

And Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him, in the twenty and seventh year of Assa the king of Judah, and became king in his stead.

11 Og det skete, der han var bleven Konge, der han sad paa sin Trone, da slog han det ganske Baesas Hus, han lod ingen blive tilovers for ham af alt Mandkøn, hverken hans næste Slægtninge eller hans Venner.

And it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, that he slew all the house of Ba'sha: he left him not a single male, neither of his kinsfolks, nor of his friends.

12 Saa ødelagde Simri hele Baesas Hus, efter Herrens Ord, som han talte til Baesa ved Jehu, Profeten,

Thus did Zimri exterminate all the house of Ba'sha, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken against Ba'sha by the agency of Jehu the prophet,

13 for alle Baesas Synders og Elas, hans Søns, Synders Skyld, hvormed de syndede, og hvormed de kom Israel til at synde, saa at de opirrede Herren Israels Gud ved deres Afguder.

For all the sins of Ba'sha, and the sins of Elah his son, by which they had sinned, and by which they had induced Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord the God of Israel to anger with their vanities.

14 Men det øvrige af Elas Handeler, og alt det, han har gjort, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Israels Kongers Krønikers Bog?

Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

15 I det syv og tyvende Asas, Judas Konges, Aar blev Simri Konge i Thirza i syv Dage; men Folket havde lejret sig imod Gibbethon, som var Filisternes.

In the twenty and seventh year of Assa the king of Judah did Zimri reign seven days in Thirzah: and the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines.

16 Der Folket, som havde lejret sig der, hørte sige: Simri har gjort et Forbund og slaget Kongen ihjel, da gjorde al Israel paa den samme Dag Omri, Stridshøvedsmanden, til Konge over Israel i Lejren.

And when the people that were encamped heard it said, Zimri hath conspired, and hath also slain the king: all Israel made 'Omri, the captain of the army, king over Israel on that day in the camp.

17 Og Omri drog op og al Israel med ham fra Gibbethon og belejrede Thirza.

And 'Omri went up, and all Israel with him from Gibbethon, and they besieged Thirzah.

18 Og det skete, der Simri saa, at Staden var indtagen, da gik han ind i Kongens Hus's Palads og opbrændte over sig Kongens Hus med Ild og døde

And it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was captured, that he went into the strong-hold of the king's house, and burnt the king's house over him with fire, and he died;

19 for sine Synders Skyld, hvormed han havde forsyndet sig, idet han gjorde det onde for Herrens Øjne og vandrede i Jeroboams Vej og i hans Synd, som han forsyndede sig med, og hvormed han bragte Israel til at synde.

For his sins which he had sinned, in doing what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, to walk in the way of Jerobo'am, and in his sin which he did, to induce Israel to sin.

20 Men det øvrige af Simris Handeler og hans Forbund, som han stiftede, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Israels Kongers Krønikers Bog?

And the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his conspiracy that he contrived, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

21 Da delte Israels Folk sig i to Dele, Halvdelen af Folket holdt med Thibni, Ginaths Søn, for at gøre ham til Konge, og Halvdelen holdt med Omri.

At that time were the people of Israel divided into two parts: one half of the people followed Thibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; and the other half followed 'Omri.

22 Men det Folk, som holdt med Omri, blev stærkere end det Folk, som holdt med Thibni, Ginaths Søn; og Thibni døde, og Omri blev Konge.

But the people that followed 'Omri prevailed against the people that followed Thibni the son of Ginath: and Thibni [also] died, and 'Omri became king.

23 I det et og tredivte Asas, Judas Konges, Aar blev Omri Konge over Israel i tolv Aar; i Thirza regerede han i seks Aar.

In the thirty and first year of Assa the king of Judah became 'Omri king over Israel, [for] twelve years; in Thirzah he reigned six years.

24 Og han købte Samarias Bjerg af Semer for to Centner Sølv og byggede paa Bjerget og kaldte Stadens Navn, som han byggede, efter Semers Navn, som havde været Herre over Bjerget, Samaria.

And he bought the mount Samaria, of Shemer for two talents of silver, and built on the mount, and called the name of the city which he had built, after the name of Shemer, the Lord of the mount, Samaria.

25 Og Omri gjorde det onde for Herrens Øjne, ja han gjorde ondt fremfor alle, som havde været før ham.

And 'Omri did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and did worse than all that were before him.

26 Og han vandrede i al Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Vej og i hans Synder, hvormed han kom Israel til at synde, saa at de opirrede Herren, Israels Gud med deres Afguder.

And he walked in all the way of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, and in his sin wherewith he induced Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord God of Israel to anger with their vanities.

27 Men det øvrige af Omris Handeler, hvad han gjorde, og hans Magt, hvilken han skaffede sig, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Israels Kongers Krønikers Bog?

Now the rest of the acts of 'Omri which he did, and his mighty deeds that he displayed, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

28 Og Omri laa med sine Fædre og blev begraven i Samaria, og Akab, hans Søn, blev Konge i hans Sted.

And 'Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria: and Achab his son became king in his stead.

29 Og i det otte og tredivte Asas, Judas Konges, Aar blev Akab, Omris Søn, Konge over Israel, og Akab, Omris Søn, regerede over Israel i Samaria to og tyve Aar.

And Achab the son of 'omri became king over Israel in the thirty and eighth year of Assa the king of Judah; and Achab the son of 'Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty and two years.

30 Og Akab, Omris Søn, gjorde det onde for Herrens Øjne fremfor alle, som havde været før ham.

And Achab the son of 'Omri did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord more than all that had been before him.

31 Og det skete, som var det ham for lidet, at han vandrede i Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Synder, at han tog til Hustru Jesabel, Eth-Baals, Zidoniernes Konges Datter, og han gik hen og tjente Baal og tilbad ham.

And it came to pass, as if it had been too light a thing for him to walk in the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, that he took for wife Izebel the daughter of Ethba'al the king of the Zidonians, and went and served Ba'al, and worshipped him.

32 Og han oprejste Baal et Alter i Baals Hus, som han byggede i Samaria.

And he erected an altar for Ba'al in the house of Ba'al, which he had built in Samaria.

33 Akab gjorde og Astartebilledet, og Akab gjorde mere til at opirre Herren, Israels Gud, end alle Israels Konger, som vare før ham.

And Achab made a grove; and Achab did yet more, so as to provoke the Lord the God of Israel to anger, than all the kings of Israel that had been before him.

34 I hans Dage byggede Betheliteren Hiel Jeriko; det kostede ham Abiram, hans førstefødte Søn, der han lagde dens Grundvold, og Segub, hans yngste Søn, der han satte dens Porte, efter Herrens Ord, som han havde talet ved Josva, Nuns Søn.

In his days did Chiel the Beth-elite build Jericho: with Abiram his first-born laid he the foundation thereof, and with Segub his youngest son set he up the gates thereof, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by means of Joshua the son of Nun.
