Anden Kongebog 14

1 I Israels Konge Joas's, Joahas's Søns, andet Aar blev Amazia, Joas's, Judas Konges Søn, Konge.

The second yeere of Ioash sonne of Iehoahaz King of Israel reigned Amaziah the sonne of Ioash King of Iudah.

2 Han var fem og tyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede ni og tyve Aar i Jerusalem; og hans Moders Navn var Joadan fra Jerusalem.

He was fiue and twentie yeere olde when he began to reigne, and reigned nine and twentie yeere in Ierusalem, and his mothers name was Iehoadan of Ierusalem.

3 Og han gjorde ret for Herrens Øjne, dog ikke som David, hans Fader; han gjorde efter alt det, som Joas, hans Fader, gjorde.

And he did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, yet not like Dauid his father, but did according to all that Ioash his father had done.

4 Dog bleve Højene ikke borttagne; Folket ofrede og gjorde Røgelse endnu paa Højene.

Notwithstanding the hie places were not taken away: for as yet the people did sacrifice and burnt incense in the hie places.

5 Og det skete, der Riget blev befæstet i hans Haand, da ihjelslog han sine Tjenere, som havde ihjelslaget Kongen, hans Fader.

And when the kingdome was confirmed in his hand, he slewe his seruants which had killed the King his father.

6 Men Mordernes Børn dræbte han ikke, som skrevet er i Moses Lovbog, som Herren bød og sagde: Forældre skulle ikke dødes for Børnenes Skyld, og Børnene ikke dødes for Forældrenes Skyld, men hver skal dødes for sin Synds Skyld.

But the children of those that did slay him, he slewe not, according vnto that that is written in the booke of the Lawe of Moses, wherein the Lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children put to death for the fathers: but euery man shall be put to death for his owne sinne.

7 Han slog ti Tusinde af Edom i Saltdalen og indtog Sela i samme Krig og kaldte dens Navn Jokthel indtil denne Dag.

He slew also of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and tooke the citie of Sela by warre, and called the name thereof Ioktheel vnto this day.

8 Da sendte Amazia Bud til Joas, en Søn af Joahas, Jehus Søn, Kongen i Israel, og lod sige: Kom og lader os se hinandens Ansigt!

Then Amaziah sent messengers to Iehoash the sonne of Iehoahaz, sonne of Iehu King of Israel, saying, Come, let vs see one another in the face.

9 Men Joas, Israels Konge, sendte til Amazia, Judas Konge, og lod sige: Tornebusken, som er paa Libanon, sendte til Cedertræet, som er paa Libanon, og lod sige: Giv min Søn din Datter til Hustru; men vilde Dyr paa Marken, som vare paa Libanon, gik over og nedtraadte Tornebusken.

Then Iehoash the King of Israel sent to Amaziah King of Iudah, saying, The thistle that is in Lebanon, sent to the cedar that is in Lebanon, saying, Giue thy daughter to my sonne to wife: and the wilde beast that was in Lebanon, went and trode downe the thistle.

10 Du har jo slaget Edom, og dit Hjerte gør dig hovmodig; behold din Ære, og bliv i dit Hus; hvi søger du Ulykke, at du skal falde, du og Juda med dig?

Because thou hast smitten Edom, thine heart hath made thee proud: bragge of glory, and tary at home. why doest thou prouoke to thine hurt, that thou shouldest fall, and Iudah with thee?

11 Men Amazia vilde ikke høre; saa drog Joas, Israels Konge, op, og de saa hinandens Ansigt, han og Amazia, Judas Konge, i Beth-Semes, som hører til Juda.

But Amaziah would not heare: therefore Iehoash King of Israel went vp: and he and Amaziah King of Iudah sawe one another in the face at Beth-shemesh which is in Iudah.

12 Men Juda blev slagen for Israels Ansigt, og de flyede hver til sit Telt.

And Iudah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fledde euery man to their tents.

13 Og Joas, Israels Konge, fangede Amazia, Judas Konge, en Søn af Joas, Ahasias Søn, i Beth-Semes; og han kom til Jerusalem og nedrev af Jerusalems Mur fra Efraims Port indtil Hjørneporten et Stykke paa fire Hundrede Alen.

But Iehoash King of Israel tooke Amaziah King of Iudah, the sonne of Iehoash the sonne of Ahaziah, at Beth-shemesh, and came to Ierusalem, and brake downe the wall of Ierusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, foure hundreth cubites.

14 Og han tog alt Guldet og Sølvet og alle Karrene, som fandtes i Herrens Hus og i Kongens Hus's Skatkamre, tilmed Børn som Gidsler, og vendte tilbage til Samaria.

And he tooke all the gold and siluer, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the Kings house, and the children that were in hostage, and returned to Samaria.

15 Men det øvrige af Joas's Handeler, hvad han gjorde og hans Vælde, og hvorledes han stred imod Amazia, Judas Konge, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Israels Kongers Krønikers Bog?

Concerning the rest of the acts of Iehoash which he did and his valiant deedes, and how he fought with Amaziah King of Iudah, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

16 Og Joas laa med sine Fædre og blev begraven i Samaria hos Israels Konger, og hans Søn Jeroboam blev Konge i hans Sted.

And Iehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried at Samaria among the Kings of Israel: and Ieroboam his sonne reigned in his stead.

17 Og Amazia, Joas's Søn, Judas Konge, levede efter Joas's, Joahas's Søns, Israels Konges, Død femten Aar.

And Amaziah the sonne of Ioash King of Iudah, liued after the death of Iehoash sonne of Iehoahaz King of Israel fifteene yeere.

18 Men det øvrige af Amazias Handeler, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Judas Kongers Krønikers Bog?

Concerning the rest of the actes of Amaziah, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Iudah?

19 Og de indgik et Forbund imod ham i Jerusalem, og han flyede til Lakis; men de sendte efter ham til Lakis og dræbte ham der.

But they wrought treason against him in Ierusalem, and he fled to Lachish, but they sent after him to Lachish, and slewe him there.

20 Og de førte ham paa Heste, og han blev begraven i Jerusalem hos sine Fædre i Davids Stad.

And they brought him on horses, and he was buried at Ierusalem with his fathers in the citie of Dauid.

21 Og alt Judas Folk tog Asaria, men han var seksten Aar gammel, og de gjorde ham til Konge i hans Fader Amazias Sted.

Then all the people of Iudah tooke Azariah which was sixteene yeere olde, and made him King for his father Amaziah.

22 Han byggede Elath og bragte den igen til Juda, efter at Kongen laa hos sine Fædre.

He built Elath, and restored it to Iudah, after that the King slept with his fathers.

23 I Amazias, Joas's Søns, Judas Konges, femtende Aar blev Jeroboam, en Søn af Israels Konge Joas, Konge i Samaria, et og fyrretyve Aar.

In the fifteenth yeere of Amaziah the sonne of Ioash King of Iudah, was Ieroboam the sonne of Ioash made King ouer Israel in Samaria, and reigned one and fourtie yeere.

24 Og han gjorde det, som var ondt for Herrens Øjne; han veg ikke fra nogen af Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Synder, som han kom Israel til at synde med.

And he did euill in the sight of the Lord: for he departed not from all the sinnes of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, which made Israel to sinne.

25 Han indtog igen Israels Landemærke fra Hamath af indtil Havet ved den slette Mark efter Herren Israels Guds Ord, som han talte ved sin Tjener Jona, Amithajs Søn, den Profet, som var fra Gath-Hefer.

He restored the coast of Israel, from the entring of Hamath, vnto the Sea of the wildernesse, according to the worde of the Lord God of Israel, which he spake by his seruant Ionah the sonne of Amittai the Prophet, which was of Gath Hepher.

26 Thi Herren saa Israels Elendighed, som var saare bitter, ja at baade den bundne var intet, og den løsladte var intet, og at der var ingen Hjælper for Israel.

For the Lord saw the exceeding bitter affliction of Israel, so that there was none shutte vp, nor any left, neyther yet any that could helpe Israel.

27 Og Herren havde ikke sagt, at han vilde udslette Israels Navn under Himmelen; men han frelste dem ved Jeroboams, Joas's Søns, Haand.

Yet the Lord had not decreed to put out the name of Israel from vnder the heauen: therefore he preserued them by the hand of Ieroboam the sonne of Ioash.

28 Men det øvrige af Jeroboams Handeler og alt det, som han gjorde, og hans Vælde, hvorledes han stred, og at han bragte Damaskus og Hamath, som havde tilhørt Juda, tilbage til Israel, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Israels Kongers Krønikers Bog?

Concerning the rest of the actes of Ieroboam, and all that he did, and his valiant deedes, and how he fought, and how he restored Damascus, and Hamath to Iudah in Israel, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

So Ieroboam slept with his fathers, euen with the Kings of Israel, and Zachariah his sonne reigned in his steade.
