Anden Kongebog 14
1 I Israels Konge Joas's, Joahas's Søns, andet Aar blev Amazia, Joas's, Judas Konges Søn, Konge.
In the second year of Joash the son of Joachaz the king of Israel became Amazyahu, the son of Joash the king of Judah, king.
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.
Twenty and five years was he old when he became king, and twenty and nine years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yeho'addan of Jerusalem.
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 what is right in the eyes of the Lord, yet not like David his father: in accordance with all that Joash his father had done, [so] did he.
4 Dog bleve Højene ikke borttagne; Folket ofrede og gjorde Røgelse endnu paa Højene.
Nevertheless the high-places were not removed: as yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense on the high-places.
5 Og det skete, der Riget blev befæstet i hans Haand, da ihjelslog han sine Tjenere, som havde ihjelslaget Kongen, hans Fader.
And it came to pass, when the kingdom was firmly established in his hand, that he slew his servants who had slain 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 the murderers he put not to death: as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, that the Lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor shall the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
7 Han slog ti Tusinde af Edom i Saltdalen og indtog Sela i samme Krig og kaldte dens Navn Jokthel indtil denne Dag.
He it was that smote of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand men, and seized Sela' in the war, and called its name Yoktheel until 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 sent Amazyah messengers to Jehoash, the son of Jehoachaz the son of Jehu, the king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look 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.
And Jehoash the king of Israel sent to Amazyahu the king of Judah, saying, The thornbush that was in the Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in the Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son for wife. And there passed along the wild beasts that were in Lebanon, and trod down the thornbush.
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?
Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thy heart hath lifted thee up: keep thy glory and stay in thy house; and why wilt thou meddle with misfortune, that thou mayest fall, thou, and Judah 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 Amazyahu would not hear. Therefore Jehoash the king of Israel went up; and he and Amazyahu the king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth-shemesh, which belongeth to Judah.
12 Men Juda blev slagen for Israels Ansigt, og de flyede hver til sit Telt.
And Judah was defeated before Israel; and they fled every man to his 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.
And Jehoash the king of Israel caught Amazyahu the king of Judah, the son of Jehoash, the son of Achazyahu, at Beth-shemesh; and he came to Jerusalem, and made a breach in the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the corner-gate, four hundred cubits.
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 took all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house, and the children of the chiefs as hostages, 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?
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his mighty deeds, and how he fought with Amazyahu the king of Judah, behold, they are written in the book 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 Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel: and Jerobo'am his son became king in his stead.
17 Og Amazia, Joas's Søn, Judas Konge, levede efter Joas's, Joahas's Søns, Israels Konges, Død femten Aar.
And Amazyahu the son of Joash the king of Judah lived after the death of Jehoash, the son of Jehoachaz the king of Israel, fifteen years.
18 Men det øvrige af Amazias Handeler, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Judas Kongers Krønikers Bog?
And the rest of the acts of Amazyahu, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
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.
Now they raised a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: wherefore he fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew 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 Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.
21 Og alt Judas Folk tog Asaria, men han var seksten Aar gammel, og de gjorde ham til Konge i hans Fader Amazias Sted.
And all the people of Judah took 'Azaryah, who was sixteen years old, and they made him king instead of his father Amazyahu.
22 Han byggede Elath og bragte den igen til Juda, efter at Kongen laa hos sine Fædre.
He it was that built Elath, and brought it back to Judah, after 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 year of Amazyahu the son of Joash the king of Judah became Jerobo'am the son of Joash the king of Israel king in Samaria, [for] forty and one years.
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 what is evil in the eyes of the Lord: he departed not from all the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who induced Israel to sin.
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 boundary of Israel from the entrance of Chamath unto the sea of the plain; in accordance with the word of the Lord God of Israel, which he had spoken by means of his servant Jonah the son of Amitthai, the prophet, who was of Gathchepher.
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 affliction of Israel, which was very bitter; that the guarded was no more, and that the fortified was no more, and there was no helper for 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.
And the Lord had not spoken that he would blot out the name of Israel from under the heavens; but he helped them by means of Jerobo'am the son of Joash.
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?
Now the rest of the acts of Jerobo'am, and all that he did, and his mighty deeds, how he warred, and how he brought back Damascus and Chamath, [which had belonged] to Judah, to Israel, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
29 Og Jeroboam laa med sine Fædre, med Israels Konger, og hans Søn Sakaria blev Konge i hans Sted.
And Jerobo'am slept with his fathers, with the kings of Israel: and Zechariah his son became king in his stead.
