Anden Krønikebog 12
1 Og det skete, der Roboams Rige var befæstet, og der han var bleven mægtig, da forlod han og hele Israel med ham Herrens Lov.
And it comes to pass, at the establishing of the kingdom of Rehoboam, and at his strengthening himself, he has forsaken the Law of YHWH, and all Israel with him.
2 Og det skete i Kong Roboams femte Aar, da drog Sisak, Kongen af Ægypten, op imod Jerusalem (thi de havde forsyndet sig imod Herren)
And it comes to pass, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt has come up against Jerusalem—because they trespassed against YHWH—
3 med tusinde og to Hundrede Vogne og med tresindstyve Tusinde Ryttere, og der var ikke Tal paa det Folk, som kom med ham af Ægypten: Libyer, Sukiter og Morianer.
with one thousand and two hundred chariots, and with sixty thousand horsemen, and there is no number to the people who have come with him out of Egypt—Lubim, Sukkiim, and Cushim—
4 Og han indtog de faste Stæder, som hørte til Juda, og kom til Jerusalem.
and he captures the cities of the bulwarks that [are] of Judah, and comes to Jerusalem.
5 Da kom Semaja, Profeten, til Roboam og til de Øverste i Juda, som havde samlet sig til Jerusalem for Sisaks Skyld, og sagde til dem: Saa sagde Herren: I have forladt mig, og jeg har derfor overladt eder i Sisaks Haand.
And Shemaiah the prophet has come to Rehoboam and the heads of Judah who have been gathered to Jerusalem [to escape] from the presence of Shishak, and says to them, “Thus said YHWH: You have forsaken Me, and also, I have left you in the hand of Shishak”;
6 Da ydmygede de Øverste udi Israel sig tillige med Kongen, og de sagde: Herren er retfærdig.
and the heads of Israel are humbled—and the king—and they say, “YHWH [is] righteous.”
7 Og der Herren saa, at de ydmygede sig, da skete Herrens Ord til Semaja og sagde: De have ydmyget sig, jeg vil ikke ødelægge dem; men om en kort Tid vil jeg lade dem undkomme, og min Fortørnelse skal ikke udøses over Jerusalem ved Sisak.
And when YHWH sees that they have been humbled, a word of YHWH has been [sent] to Shemaiah, saying, “They have been humbled; I do not destroy them, and I have given to them as a little thing for an escape, and I do not pour out My fury in Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak;
8 Dog skulle de vorde hans Tjenere, at de kunne fornemme, hvad det er at tjene mig og at tjene Landenes Riger.
but they become servants to him, and they know My service, and the service of the kingdoms of the lands.”
9 Saa drog Sisak, Kongen af Ægypten, op imod Jerusalem, og han tog Liggendefæet i Herrens Hus og Liggendefæet i Kongens Hus, han tog alting bort; og han tog de Skjolde af Guld, som Salomo havde ladet gøre.
And Shishak king of Egypt comes up against Jerusalem, and takes the treasures of the house of YHWH and the treasures of the house of the king—he has taken the whole—and he takes the shields of gold that Solomon had made;
10 Og Kong Roboam lod gøre Kobberskjolde i deres Sted og betroede dem i de øverste Drabanters Haand, som toge Vare paa Døren for Kongens Hus.
and King Rehoboam makes shields of bronze in their stead, and has given [them] a charge on the hand of the heads of the runners who are keeping the opening of the house of the king;
11 Og det skete, saa tidt Kongen gik ind i Herrens Hus, da kom Drabanterne og bare dem ud, og de bare dem tilbage i Drabanternes Kammer.
and it comes to pass, from the time of the going in of the king to the house of YHWH, the runners have come in and lifted them up, and brought them back to the chamber of the runners.
12 Og da han ydmygede sig, blev Herrens Vrede vendt af fra ham, thi han vilde ikke ødelægge ham aldeles; thi der var ogsaa nogle gode Ting i Juda.
And in his being humbled, the wrath of YHWH has turned back from him, so as not to destroy to completion; and also, there have been good things in Judah.
13 Og Kong Roboam befæstede sig i Jerusalem og regerede; thi Roboam var et og fyrretyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede sytten Aar i Jerusalem, i den Stad, som Herren af alle Israels Stammer havde udvalgt for der at sætte sit Navn; og hans Moders Navn var Naema, den ammonitiske.
And King Rehoboam strengthens himself in Jerusalem and reigns; for Rehoboam [is] a son of forty-two years in his reigning, and he has reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that YHWH has chosen to put His Name there, out of all the tribes of Israel, and the name of his mother [is] Naamah the Ammonitess,
14 Og han gjorde det, som var ondt; thi han beredte ikke sit Hjerte til at søge Herren.
and he does evil, for he has not prepared his heart to seek YHWH.
15 Men Roboams Handeler, de første og de sidste, ere de ikke skrevne i Profeten Semajas Krønikers Bog og hos Seeren Iddo, hvor han opregner Slægtregistrene? og der var Krige imellem Roboam og Jeroboam alle Dage.
And the matters of Rehoboam, the first and the last, are they not written among the matters of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer, concerning genealogy? And the wars of Rehoboam and Jeroboam [are for] all the days;
16 Og Roboam laa med sine Fædre, og blev begraven i Davids Stad; og Abia, hans Søn, blev Konge i hans Sted.
and Rehoboam lies with his fathers, and is buried in the City of David, and his son Abijah reigns in his stead.
