Første Kongebog 16
1 Men til Jehu, Hananis Søn, kom HERRENS Ord mod Ba'sja saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came to Jehu, son of Hanani, protesting against Baasha and saying,
2 »Jeg ophøjede dig af Støvet og gjorde dig til Fyrste over mit Folk Israel, dog har du vandret i Jeroboams Spor og forledt mit Folk Israel til Synd, saa de krænker mig ved deres Synder;
Because I took you up out of the dust, and made you ruler over my people Israel; and you have gone in the ways of Jeroboam, and made my people Israel do evil, moving me to wrath by their sins;
3 se, derfor vil jeg nu feje Ba'sja og hans Hus bort og gøre det samme ved dit Hus, som jeg gjorde ved Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Hus;
Truly, I will see that Baasha and all his family are completely brushed away; I will make your family like the family of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat.
4 den af Ba'sjas Slægt, som dør i Byen, skal Hundene æde, og den, som dør paa Marken, skal Himmelens Fugle æde!«
Anyone of the family of Baasha who comes to death in the town, will become food for the dogs; and he to whom death comes in the open country, will be food for the birds of the air.
5 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Ba'sja, hvad han gjorde, og hans Heltegerninger, staar jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.
Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did, and his power, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
6 Saa lagde Ba'sja sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre og blev jordet i Tirza; og hans Søn Ela blev Konge i hans Sted.
And Baasha went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth at Tirzah; and Elah his son became king in his place.
7 Desuden kom HERRENS Ord ved Profeten Jehu, Hananis Søn, mod Ba'sja og hans Hus baade paa Grund af alt det, han havde gjort, som var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, idet han krænkede ham ved sine Hænders Værk og efterlignede Jeroboams Hus, og tillige fordi han lod dette nedhugge.
And the Lord sent his word against Baasha and his family by the mouth of the prophet Jehu, the son of Hanani, because of all the evil he did in the eyes of the Lord, moving him to wrath by the work of his hands, because he was like the family of Jeroboam, and because he put it to death.
8 I Kong Asa af Judas seks og tyvende Regeringsaar blev Ela, Ba'sjas Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede to Aar i Tirza.
In the twenty-sixth year that Asa was king of Judah, Elah, the son of Baasha, became king of Israel in Tirzah, and he was king for two years.
9 Saa stiftede en af hans Mænd, Zimri, der var Fører for den ene Halvdel af Stridsvognene, en Sammensværgelse imod ham; og engang, da han i Tirza var beruset ved et Drikkelag i sin Paladsøverste Arzas Hus,
And his servant Zimri, captain of half his war-carriages, made secret designs against him: now he was in Tirzah, drinking hard in the house of Arza, controller of the king's house in Tirzah.
10 trængte Zimri ind og slog ham ihjel — i Kong Asa af Judas syv og tyvende Regeringsaar — og blev Konge i hans Sted.
And Zimri went in and made an attack on him and put him to death, in the twenty-seventh year that Asa was king of Judah, and made himself king in his place.
11 Da han var blevet Konge og havde besteget Tronen, lod han hele Ba'sjas Hus dræbe uden at levne et mandligt Væsen og tillige hans nærmeste Slægtninge og Venner;
And straight away when he became king and took his place on the seat of the kingdom, he put to death all the family of Baasha: not one male child of his relations or his friends kept his life.
12 saaledes udryddede Zimri hele Ba'sjas Hus efter det Ord, HERREN havde talet til Ba'sja ved Profeten Jehu,
So Zimri put to death all the family of Baasha, so that the word which the Lord said against him by the mouth of Jehu the prophet came about;
13 for alle de Synders Skyld, som Ba'sja og hans Søn Ela havde begaaet og forledt Israel til, saa at de krænkede HERREN, Israels Gud, ved deres Afguder.
Because of all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, which they did and made Israel do, moving the Lord, the God of Israel, to wrath by their foolish acts.
14 Hvad der ellers er af fortælle om Ela, alt, hvad han gjorde, staar jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.
Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
15 I Kong Asa af Judas syv og tyvende Regeringsaar blev Zimri Konge, og han herskede syv Dage i Tirza. Hæren var paa det Tidspunkt ved at belejre Gibbeton, som tilhørte Filisterne;
In the twenty-seventh year of Asa, king of Judah, Zimri was king for seven days in Tirzah. Now the people were attacking Gibbethon in the land of the Philistines.
16 og da nu Hæren under Belejringen hørte, at Zimri havde stiftet en Sammensværgelse mod Kongen og endda dræbt ham, udraabte hele Israel samme Dag i Lejren Omri, Israels Hærfører, til Konge.
And news came to the people in the tents that Zimri had made a secret design and had put the king to death: so all Israel made Omri, the captain of the army, king that day in the tents.
17 Derpaa brød Omri op med hele Israel fra Gibbeton og begyndte at belejre Tirza;
Then Omri went up from Gibbethon, with all the army of Israel, and they made an attack on Tirzah, shutting in the town on every side.
18 og da Zimri saa at Byen var taget, begav han sig ind i Kongens Palads og stak det i Brand over sig; saaledes døde han
And when Zimri saw that the town was taken, he went into the inner room of the king's house, and burning the house over his head, came to his end,
19 for de Synders Skyld, han havde begaaet, idet han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, og vandrede i Jeroboams Spor og i de Synder, han havde begaaet, da han forledte Israel til at synde.
Because of his sin in doing evil in the eyes of the Lord, in going in the way of Jeroboam and in his sin which he made Israel do.
20 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Zimri og den Sammensværgelse, han stiftede, staar jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.
Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and the secret design he made, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
21 Ved den Tid delte Israels Folk sig, idet den ene Halvdel sluttede sig til Tibni, Ginats Søn, og udraabte ham til Konge, medens den anden sluttede sig til Omri.
Then there was a division among the people of Israel; half the people were for making Tibni, son of Ginath, king, and half were supporting Omri.
22 Men den Del af Folket, der sluttede sig til Omri, fik Overtaget over dem, der sluttede sig til Tibni, Ginats Søn, og da Tibni døde ved den Tid, blev Omri Konge.
But the supporters of Omri overcame those who were on the side of Tibni, the son of Ginath; and death came to Tibni and to his brother Joram at that time: and Omri became king in the place of Tibni.
23 I Kong Asa af Judas een og tredivte Regeringsaar blev Omri Konge over Israel, og han herskede tolv Aar. Først herskede han seks Aar i Tirza;
In the thirty-first year of Asa, king of Judah, Omri became king over Israel, and he was king for twelve years; for six years he was ruling in Tirzah.
24 men siden købte han Samarias Bjerg af Semer for to Talenter Sølv og byggede paa Bjerget en By, som han efter Semer, Bjergets Ejer, kaldte Samaria.
He got the hill Samaria from Shemer for the price of two talents of silver, and he made a town there, building it on the hill and naming it Samaria, after Shemer the owner of the hill.
25 Omri gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, og handlede endnu værre end alle hans Forgængere;
And Omri did evil in the eyes of the Lord, even worse than all those before him,
26 han vandrede helt i Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Spor og i de Synder, han havde forledt Israel til, saa at de krænkede HERREN, Israels Gud, ved deres Afguder.
Copying all the evil ways of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, and all the sins he did and made Israel do, moving the Lord, the God of Israel, to wrath by their foolish ways.
27 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Omri, alt, hvad han gjorde, og de Heltegerninger, han udførte, staar jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.
Now the rest of the acts which Omri did, and his great power, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
28 Saa lagde Omri sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre og blev jordet i Samaria; og hans Søn Akab blev Konge i hans Sted.
So Omri went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in Samaria; and Ahab his son became king in his place.
29 Akab, Omris Søn, blev Konge over Israel i Kong Asa af Judas otte og tredivte Regeringsaar, og Akab, Omris Søn, herskede to og tyve Aar over Israel i Samaria.
In the thirty-eighth year that Asa was king of Judah, Ahab, the son of Omri, became king over Israel; and Ahab was king in Samaria for twenty-two years.
30 Akab, Omris Søn, gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, i højere Grad end alle hans Forgængere.
And Ahab, the son of Omri, did evil in the eyes of the Lord, even worse than all who went before him.
31 Og som om det ikke var nok med, at han vandrede i Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Synder, ægtede han oven i Købet Jesabel, en Datter af Zidoniernes Konge Etba'al, og gik hen og dyrkede Ba'al og tilbad ham.
And as if copying the evil ways of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, was a small thing for him, he took as his wife Jezebel, daughter of Ethbaal, king of Zidon, and became a servant and worshipper of Baal.
32 Han rejste Ba'al et Alter i Ba'alstemplet, som han lod bygge i Samaria.
And he put up an altar for Baal in the house of Baal which he had made in Samaria.
33 Og Akab lavede Asjerastøtten og gjorde endnu flere Ting, hvorved han krænkede HERREN, Israels Gud, værre end de Konger, der havde hersket før ham i Israel.
And Ahab made an image of Asherah and did more than all the kings of Israel before him to make the Lord, the God of Israel, angry.
34 I hans Dage genopbyggede Beteliten Hiel Jeriko; efter det Ord, HERREN havde talet ved Josua, Nuns Søn, kostede det ham hans førstefødte Abiram at lægge Grunden og hans yngste Søn Segub at sætte dens Portfløje ind.
In his days Hiel made Jericho; he put its base in position at the price of Abiram, his oldest son, and he put its doors in place at the price of his youngest son Segub; even as the Lord had said by Joshua, the son of Nun.
