Første Kongebog 16

1 Men til Jehu, Hananis Søn, kom HERRENS Ord mod Ba'sja saaledes:

Then came the word of Yahweh unto Jehu

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;

son of Hanani, against Baasha, saying: Forasmuch as I exalted thee out of the dust, and gave thee to be leader over my people Israel, —and yet thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and caused, my people Israel, to sin, provoking me to anger with 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;

Behold me! consuming after Baasha, and after his house, —and I will deliver up thy house, like the house of Jeroboam 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!«

Him that dieth of Baasha in the city, shall, the dogs, eat, and, him that dieth of his in the field, shall, the birds of heaven, eat.

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 story of Baasha, and what he did, and his might, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles 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.

So Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah, —and, Elah his son, reigned, in his stead.

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.

Moreover also, through Jehu son of Hanani the prophet, the word of Yahweh, came against Baasha and against his house, even because of all the wickedness that he had done in the eyes of Yahweh, provoking him to anger with the work of his hands, becoming like the house of Jeroboam, —notwithstanding that he smote him.

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 of Asa king of Judah, began Elah son of Baasha to reign over Israel, in Tirzah, [and he reigned] 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,

Then conspired against him his servant Zimri, captain of half the chariots, —as he was in Tirzah drinking himself drunk, in the house of Arza, who was over the household 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 smote him and slew him, in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, —and reigned in his stead.

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 it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, that he smote all the house of Baasha, he left him not even the meanest, —neither of his kinsfolks, nor of his friends.

12 saaledes udryddede Zimri hele Ba'sjas Hus efter det Ord, HERREN havde talet til Ba'sja ved Profeten Jehu,

Thus did Zimri destroy all the house of Baasha, —according to the word of Yahweh which he spake unto Baasha, through Jehu the prophet;

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.

as to all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, —wherewith they sinned, and wherewith they caused, Israel, to sin, provoking to anger Yahweh God of Israel, with their vanities.

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 story of Elah, and all that he did, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles 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, did Zimri reign, seven days in Tirzah, —but, the people, were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistine.

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.

When therefore the people who were encamped, heard say, Zimri hath conspired, moreover also, he hath smitten the king, all Israel made Omri, general of the army, king over Israel, on that day, in the camp.

17 Derpaa brød Omri op med hele Israel fra Gibbeton og begyndte at belejre Tirza;

So Omri, and all Israel with him, went up from Gibbethon, —and laid siege against Tirzah.

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 it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was captured, that he entered into the citadel of the house of the king, —and burned over him the house of the king, with fire, and died:

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 sins which he committed by doing the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —by walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he committed, by causing, Israel, to sin.

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 story of Zimri, and his conspiracy wherein he conspired, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles 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, were the people of Israel divided, —half the people, were following Tibni son of Ginath, to make him king, and, half, following 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 people that followed Omri, prevailed against, the people that followed Tibni son of Ginath; so that, Tibni, died, and, Omri, reigned.

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, began Omri to reign over Israel [and he reigned] twelve years: in Tirzah, reigned he six years.

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.

And he bought the hill Samaria, of Shemer, for two talents of silver, —and built on the hill, and called the name of the city which he built, after the name of Shemer lord of the hill—Samaria.

25 Omri gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, og handlede endnu værre end alle hans Forgængere;

And Omri did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —and did more wickedly than all who were 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.

yea he walked in all the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and in his sin wherewith he caused, Israel, to sin, —provoking to anger Yahweh, God of Israel, with their vanities.

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 story of Omri, what he did, and his might that he shewed, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles 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 slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria, —and, Ahab his son, reigned, in his stead.

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.

Now, Ahab son of Omri, began to reign over Israel, in the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah, —and Ahab son of Omri reigned over Israel, in Samaria, twenty-two years.

30 Akab, Omris Søn, gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, i højere Grad end alle hans Forgængere.

And Ahab son of Omri did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —and did more wickedly than all that were 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 it come to pass, as though it had been too light a thing that he should walk in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, that he took to wife Jezebel, daughter of Ethbaal, king of the Zidonians, and went and served Baal, and bowed down to him.

32 Han rejste Ba'al et Alter i Ba'alstemplet, som han lod bygge i Samaria.

And he reared an altar unto Baal, —in the house of Baal, which he built 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 the Sacred Stem, —and Ahab did yet more to provoke to anger Yahweh God of Israel than all the kings of Israel who were before him.

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, did Hiel the Bethelite build Jericho, —At the price of Abiram his firstborn, he laid its foundation, and, at the price of Segub his youngest, he set up its doors, according to the word of Yahweh which he spake through Joshua son of Nun.
