In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah began to reign.

2 Han var seksten Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede to og halvtredsindstyve Aar i Jerusalem, og hans Moders Navn var Jekolia fra Jerusalem.

Azariah was sixteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned for fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jekoliah, and she was from Jerusalem.

3 Og han gjorde det, som var ret for Herrens Øjne, efter alt det, som hans Fader Amazia gjorde.

He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, just as his father Amaziah had done.

4 Dog kom Højene ikke bort; Folket ofrede endnu og gjorde Ragelse paa Højene.

However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense at the high places.

5 Og Herren slog Kongen, at han blev spedalsk indtil sin Dødsdag og boede udi et særskilt Hus; men Jotham, Kongens Søn, var over Huset og dømte Folket i Landet.

Yahweh afflicted the king so that he was a leper to the day of his death and lived in a separate house. Jotham, the king's son, was over the household and ruled the people of the land.

6 Men det øvrige af Asarias Handeler og alt, hvad han gjorde, er det ikke skrevet i Judas Kongers Krønikers Bog?

As for the other matters concerning Azariah, all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?

7 Og Asaria laa med sine Fædre, og de begavede ham hos hans Fædre i Davids Stad, og Jotham, hans Søn, blev Konge i hans Sted.

So Azariah slept with his ancestors; they buried him with his ancestors in the city of David. Jotham, his son, became king in his place.

9 Og han gjorde det, som var ondt for Herrens Øjne, ligesom hans Fædre gjorde, han veg ikke fra Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Synder, som han kom Israel til at synde med.

He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as his fathers had done. He did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin.

10 Og Sallum, Jabes's Søn, gjorde et Forbund imod ham og slog ham i Folkets Paasyn og dræbte ham og blev Konge i hans Sted.

Shallum son of Jabesh conspired against Zechariah, attacked him in Ibleam, and killed him. Then he became king in his place.

11 Men det øvrige af Sakarias Handeler, se, de Ting ere skrevne i Israels Kongers Krønikers Bog.

As for the other matters concerning Zechariah, they are written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel.

12 Dette er Herrens Ord, som han talte til Jehu, sigende: Dine Sønner i det fjerde Led skulle sidde paa Israels Trone; og det skete saa.

This was the word of Yahweh that he spoke to Jehu, saying, “Your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.” That is what happened.

As for the other matters concerning Shallum and the conspiracy that he formed, they are written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel.

16 Da slog Menahem Thipsa og alle, som vare deri, og dens Landemærke, da han drog ud fra Thirza; fordi man ikke havde villet indlade ham, derfor slog han dem; alle de frugtsommelige derudi søndersled han.

Then Menahem attacked Tiphsah and all who were there, and the borders around Tirzah, because they did not open up the city to him. So he attacked it, and he ripped open all the pregnant women in that village.

He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh. For his whole life, he did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin.

19 Ful, Kongen af Assyrien, kom over Landet, og Menahem gav Ful tusinde Centner Sølv, at han skulde holde med ham og befæste Riget i hans Haand.

Then Pul the king of Assyria came against the land, and Menahem gave Pul one thousand talents of silver, so that Pul's support might be with him to strengthen the kingdom of Israel in his hand.

20 Og Menahem indkrævede det Sølv af Israel, af alle de formuende, til at give Kongen af Assyrien, nemlig halvtredsindstyve Sekel Sølv for hver Mand; saa drog Kongen af Assyrien tilbage og blev ikke der i Landet.

Menahem exacted this money from Israel by requiring each of the wealthy men to pay fifty shekels of silver to him to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back and did not stay there in the land.
