Anden Kongebog 15

1 I Kong Jeroboam af Israels syvogtyvende Regeringsaar blev Azarja, Amazjas Søn, Konge over Juda.

In the seven and twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned Azarias son of Amasias, king of Juda.

2 Han var seksten Aar gammel, da han blev Konge, og han herskede to og halvtredsindstyve Aar i Jerusalem. Hans Moder hed Jekolja og var fra Jerusalem.

He was sixteen years old, when he began to reign, and he reigned two and fifty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Jechelia of Jerusalem.

3 Han gjorde, hvad der var ret i HERRENS Øjne, ganske som hans Fader Amazja.

And he did that which was pleasing before the Lord, according to all that his father Amasias had done.

4 Kun forsvandt Offerhøjene ikke, men Folket blev ved med at ofre og tænde Offerild paa Højene,

But the high places he did not destroy: for the people sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.

5 Men HERREN ramte Kongen, saa han blev spedalsk til sin Dødedag; og han fik Lov at blive boende i sit Hus, medens Kongens Søn Jotam raadede i Paladset og dømte Folket i Landet.

And the Lord struck the king, so that he was a leper unto the day of his death, and he dwelt in a free house apart: but Joatham the king’s soil governed the palace, and judged the people of the land.

6 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Azarja, alt, hvad han udførte, staar jo optegnet i Judas Kongers Krønike.

And the rest of the acts of Azarias, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?

7 Saa lagde han sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre, og man jordede ham hos hans Fædre i Davidsbyen; og hans Søn Jotam blev Konge i hans Sted.

And Azarias slept with his fathers: and they buried him with his ancestors in the city of David, and Joatham his son reigned in his stead.

8 I Kong Azarja af Judas otte og tredivte Regeringsaar blev Zekarja, Jeroboams Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede seks Maaneder i Samaria.

In the eight and thirtieth year of Azarias king of Juda, reigned Zacharias son of Jeroboam over Israel in Samaria six months:

9 Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, ligesom hans Fædre, og han veg ikke fra de Synder, Jeroboam Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til.

And he did that which is evil before the Lord, as his fathers had done: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat who made Israel to sin.

10 Men Sjallum, Jabesj's Søn, stiftede en Sammensværgelse mod ham, huggede ham ned og dræbte ham i Jibleam og blev Konge i hans Sted.

And Sellum the son of Jabes conspired against him: and struck him publicly and killed him, and reigned in his place.

11 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Zekarja, staar optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

Now the rest of the acts of Zacharias, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

12 Saaledes opfyldtes det Ord HERREN havde talet til Jehu, da han sagde: »Dine Sønner skal sidde paa Israels Trone indtil fjerde Led.« Saaledes gik det.

This was the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Jehu, saying: Thy children to the fourth generation shall sit upon the throne of Israel. And so it came to pass.

13 I Kong Uzzija af Judas ni og tredivte Regeringsaar blev Sjallum, Jabesj's Søn, Konge, og han herskede en Maaneds Tid i Samaria.

Sellum the son of Jabes began to reign in the nine and thirtieth year of Azarias king of Juda: and reigned one month in Samaria.

14 Da drog Menahem, Gadis Søn, op fra Tirza til Samaria, og der huggede han Sjallum, Jabesj's Søn, ned og dræbte ham og blev Konge i hans Sted.

And Manahem the son of Gadi went up from Thersa: and he came into Samaria, and struck Sellum the son of Jabes in Samaria, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.

15 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Sjallum og den Sammensværgelse, han stiftede, staar optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

And the rest of the acts of Sellum, and his conspiracy, which he made, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

16 Fra Tirza hærgede Menahem ved den Tid Tappua og alt, hvad der var deri, og hele dets Omraade, fordi de ikke havde aabnet Portene for ham; derfor hærgede han det og lod Livet rive op paa alle frugtsommelige Kvinder der.

Then Manahem destroyed Thapsa and all that were in it and the borders thereof from Thersa, because they would not open to him: and he slew all the women thereof that were with child, and ripped them up.

17 I Kong Azarja af Judas ni og tredivte Regeringsaar blev Menahem, Gadis Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede ti Aar i Samaria.

In the nine and thirtieth year of Azarias king of Juda, reigned Manahem son of Gadi over Israel ten years in Samaria.

18 Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, og veg ikke fra nogen af de Synder, Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til. I hans Dage

And he did that which was evil before the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin all his days.

19 faldt Kong Pul af Assyrien ind i Landet. Men Menahem gav Pul 1000 Talenter Sølv, for at han skulde støtte ham og sikre ham Magten;

And Phul king of the Assyrians came into the land, and Manahem gave Phul a thousand talents of silver, to aid him and to establish him in the kingdom.

20 Menahem inddrev disse Penge hos Israel, hos alle de velhavende, halvtredsindstyve Sekel Sølv hos hver, for at udbetale dem til Assyrerkongen. Saa vendte Assyrerkongen hjem og blev ikke længer der i Landet.

And Manahem laid a tax upon Israel, on all that were mighty and rich, to give the king of the Assyrians, each man fifty sides of silver: so the king of the Assyrians turned back, and did not stay in the land.

21 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Menahem, alt, hvad han udførte, staar jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

And the rest of the acts of Manahem, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

22 Saa lagde Menahem sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre, og hans Søn Pekaja blev Konge i hans Sted.

And Manahem slept with his fathers: and Phaceia his son reigned in his stead.

23 I Kong Azarja af Judas halvtredsindstyvende Regeringsaar blev Pekaja, Menahems Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede to Aar i Samaria.

In the fiftieth year of Azarias king of Juda reigned Phaceia the son of Manahem over Israel in Samaria two years.

24 Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, og veg ikke fra de Synder, Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til.

And he did that which was evil before the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.

25 Men hans Høvedsmand Peka, Remaljas Søn, stiftede en Sammensværgelse mod ham, og fulgt af halvtredsindstyve gileaditiske Mænd huggede han ham ned i Samaria i Kongeborgen ...., og efter at have dræbt ham blev han Konge i hans Sted.

And Phacee the son of Romelia, his captain conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the tower of the king’s house, near Argob, and near Arie, and with him fifty men of the sons of the Galaadites, and he slew him and reigned in his stead.

26 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Pekaja, alt, hvad han udførte, staar optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

And the rest of the acts of Phaceia, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

27 I Kong Azarja af Judas to og halvtredsindstyvende Regeringsaar blev Peka, Remaljas Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede tyve Aar i Samaria.

In the two and fiftieth year of Azarias king of Juda reigned Phacee the son of Romelia over Israel in Samaria twenty years.

28 Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, og veg ikke fra de Synder, Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til.

And he did that which was evil before the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.

29 I Kong Peka af Israels Dage kom Assyrerkongen Tiglat-Pileser og indtog Ijjon, Abel-Bet-Ma'aka, Janoa, Kedesj, Hazor, Gilead og Galilæa, hele Naftalis Land, og førte Indbyggerne bort til Assyrien.

In the days of Phacee king of Israel came Theglathphalasar king of Assyria, and took Aion, and Abel Domum Maacha and Janoe, and Cedes, and Asor, and Galaad, and Galilee, and all the land of Nephtali: and carried them captives into Assyria.

30 Men Hosea, Elas's Søn, stiftede en Sammensværgelse mod Peka, Remaljas Søn, huggede ham ned og dræbte ham; og han blev Konge i hans Sted i Jotams, Uzzijas Søns, tyvende Regeringsaar.

Now Osee son of Ela conspired, and formed a plot against Phacee, the son of Romelia, and struck him, and slew him: and reigned in his stead in the twentieth year of Joatham the son of Ozias.

31 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Peka, alt, hvad han udførte, staar optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

But the rest of the acts of Phaces, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

32 I Remaljas Søns, Kong Peka af Israels, andet Regeringsaar blev Jotam, Azarjas Søn, Konge over Juda.

In the second year of Phacee the son of Romelia king of Israel reigned Joatham son of Ozias king of Juda.

33 Han var fem og tyve Aar gammel, da han blev Konge, og han herskede seksten Aar i Jerusalem. Hans Moder hed Jerusja og var en Datter af Zadok.

He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Jerusa, the daughter of Sadoc.

34 Han gjorde, hvad der var ret i HERRENS Øjne, ganske som hans Fader Uzzija.

And he did that which was right before the Lord: according to all that his father Ozias had done, so did he.

35 Kun forsvandt Offerhøjene ikke, men Folket blev ved med at ofre og tænde Offerild paa Højene. Det var ham, der lod Øvreporten i HERRENS Hus opføre.

But the high places he took not away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places: he built the highest gate of the house of the Lord.

36 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Jotam, alt, hvad han udførte, staar jo optegnet i Judas Kongers Krønike.

But the rest of the acts of Joatham, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?

37 Paa den Tid begyndte HERREN at lade Kong Rezin af Aram og Peka, Remaljas Søn, angribe Juda.

In those days the Lord began to send into Juda Basin king of Syria, and Phacee the son of Romelia.

38 Saa lagde Jotam sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre, og han blev jordet hos sine Fædre i sin Fader Davids By; og hans Søn Akaz blev Konge i hans Sted.

And Joatham slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David his father, and Achaz his son reigned in his stead.
