Anden Krønikebog 33
1 Manasse var tolv Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede fem og halvtredsindstyve Aar i Jerusalem.
Manasseh was twelue yeere olde, when he beganne to reigne, and he reigned fiue and fiftie yeere in Ierusalem:
2 Og han gjorde det, som var ondt for Herrens Øjne, efter de Hedningers Vederstyggeligheder, som Herren havde fordrevet for Israels Børns Ansigt.
And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, like the abominations of the heathen, who the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.
3 Thi han opbyggede igen de Høje, som Ezekias, hans Fader, havde nedbrudt, og oprejste Altre til Baalerne og gjorde Astartebilleder og tilbad al Himmelens Hær og tjente dem.
For he went backe and built the hie places, which Hezekiah his father had broken downe: and he set vp altars for Baalim, and made groues, and worshipped all the hoste of the heauen, and serued them.
4 Og han byggede Altre i Herrens Hus, om hvilke Herren havde sagt: I Jerusalem skal mit Navn være evindelig.
Also he built altars in the house of the Lord, whereof the Lord had saide, In Ierusalem shall my Name be for euer.
5 Tilmed byggede han Altre til hele Himmelens Hær i begge Forgaardene til Herrens Hus.
And he built altars for all the hoste of the heauen in the two courtes of the house of the Lord.
6 Og han lod sine Sønner gaa igennem Ilden i Hinnoms Søns Dal og var en Dagvælger og agtede paa Fugleskrig og brugte Trolddom og beskikkede Spaamænd og Tegnsudlæggere, han gjorde meget ondt for Herrens Øjne til at opirre ham.
And he caused his sonnes to passe through the fire in the valley of Ben-hinnom: he gaue him selfe to witchcraft and to charming and to sorcerie, and he vsed them that had familiar spirits, and soothsayers: hee did very much euill in the sight of the Lord to anger him.
7 Han satte og et udskaaret Billede, som han lod gøre, i Guds Hus, om hvilket Gud havde sagt til David og til Salomo, hans Søn: I dette Hus og i Jerusalem, som jeg har udvalgt fremfor alle Israels Stammer, vil jeg sætte mit Navn evindelig.
He put also the carued image, which he had made, in the house of God: whereof God had said to Dauid and to Salomon his sonne, In this house and in Ierusalem, which I haue chosen before all the tribes of Israel, will I put my Name for euer,
8 Og jeg vil ikke mere lade Israels Fod fortrænges fra Landet, som jeg bestemte for deres Fædre; kun saafremt de tage Vare paa at gøre alt det, jeg har budet dem, efter hele Loven og Skikkene og Budene ved Mose.
Neither will I make the foote of Israel to remooue any more out of the lande which I haue appointed for your fathers, so that they take heede, and do all that I haue commanded them, according to the Lawe and statutes and iudgements by the hande of Moses.
9 Men Manasse forførte Juda og Indbyggerne i Jerusalem til at handle værre end Hedningerne, som Herren havde ødelagt for Israels Børns Ansigt.
So Manasseh made Iudah and the inhabitants of Ierusalem to erre, and to doe worse then the heathen, whome the Lord had destroyed before the children of Israel.
10 Og Herren talte til Manasse og til hans Folk; men de gave ikke Agt derpaa.
And the Lord spake to Manasseh and to his people, but they would not regarde.
11 Derfor lod Herren Kongen af Assyriens Hærførere komme over dem, og de grebe Manasse iblandt Tornebuskene, og de bandt ham med to Kobberlænker og førte ham til Babel.
Wherefore the Lord brought vpon them the captaines of the hoste of the King of Asshur, which tooke Manasseh and put him in fetters, and bound him in chaines, and caryed him to Babel.
12 Og der han kom i Angest, bad han ydmygelig for Herren sin Guds Ansigt og ydmygede sig saare for sine Fædres Guds Ansigt.
And when he was in tribulation, he prayed to the Lord his God, and humbled him selfe greatly before the God of his fathers,
13 Ja, han bad til ham, og Gud bønhørte ham og hørte hans ydmyge Begæring og førte ham tilbage til Jerusalem, til hans Rige; da kendte Manasse, at Herren var Gud.
And prayed vnto him: and God was entreated of him, and heard his prayer, and brought him againe to Ierusalem into his kingdome: then Manasseh knewe that the Lord was God.
14 Og derefter byggede han den yderste Mur for Davids Stad, Vesten for Gihon i Dalen, og hen til Fiskeporten, og han førte den omkring Ofel og gjorde den saare høj; og han lagde Stridshøvedsmænd i alle Judas faste Stæder.
Nowe after this he built a wall without the citie of Dauid, on the Westside of Gihon in the valley, euen at the entrie of the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it very hie, and put captaines of warre in all the strong cities of Iudah.
15 Og han borttog de fremmede Guder og hint Billede fra Herrens Hus og alle Altrene, som han havde bygget paa Herrens Hus's Bjerg og i Jerusalem, og han kastede dem uden for Staden.
And he tooke away the strange gods and the image out of the house of the Lord, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Ierusalem, and cast them out of the citie.
16 Og han istandsatte Herrens Alter og ofrede derpaa Takofre og Lovofre; og han sagde til Juda, at de skulde tjene Herren, Israels Gud.
Also he prepared the altar of the Lord, and sacrificed thereon peace offerings, and of thankes, and commanded Iudah to serue the Lord God of Israel.
17 Dog ofrede Folket endnu paa Højene, men kun til Herren deres Gud.
Neuerthelesse the people did sacrifice stil in the hie places, but vnto the Lord their God.
18 Men det øvrige af Manasses Handeler og hans Bøn til hans Gud og de Seeres Taler, som talte til ham i Herren Israels Guds Navn, se, dette er skrevet i Israels Kongers Krønike.
Concerning the rest of the actes of Manasseh, and his prayer vnto his God, and the words of the Seers, that spake to him in ye Name of the Lord God of Israel, beholde, they are written in the booke of the Kings of Israel.
19 Og hans Bøn, og at han blev bønhørt, og al hans Synd og Forgribelse og de Steder, paa hvilke han byggede Højene og satte Astartebilleder og udskaarne Billeder, førend han blev ydmyget; se, dette er skrevet i Seernes Krønike.
And his prayer and how God was intreated of him, and all his sinne, and his trespasse, and the places wherein he built hie places, and set groues and images (before he was humbled) behold, they are written in the booke of the Seers.
20 Og Manasse laa med sine Fædre, og de begrove ham i hans Hus, og hans Søn Amon blev Konge i hans Sted.
So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his owne house: and Amon his sonne reigned in his stead.
21 Amon var to og tyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede to Aar i Jerusalem.
Amon was two and twentie yeere olde, when he began to reigne, and reigned two yeere in Ierusalem.
22 Og han gjorde det, som var ondt for Herrens Øjne, ligesom Manasse, hans Fader, havde gjort, og til alle de udskaarne Billeder, som Manasse, hans Fader, havde gjort, ofrede Amon og tjente dem.
But he did euill in the sight of the Lord, as did Manasseh his father: for Amon sacrificed to all the images, which Manasseh his father had made, and serued them,
23 Men han ydmygede sig ikke for Herrens Ansigt, som hans Fader Manasse havde ydmyget sig; thi denne Amon gjorde Skylden mangfoldig.
And he humbled not him selfe before the Lord, as Manasseh his father had humbled himselfe: but this Amon trespassed more and more.
24 Og hans Tjenere gjorde et Forbund imod ham og dræbte ham i hans Hus.
And his seruants conspired against him, and slewe him in his owne house.
25 Men Folket i Landet slog alle dem ihjel, som havde gjort Forbund imod Kong Amon, og Folket i Landet gjorde Josias, hans Søn, til Konge i hans Sted.
But the people of the land slewe all them that had conspired against King Amon: and the people of the land made Iosiah his sonne King in his steade.
