< Anden Kongebog 13 >

1 I Ahazjas Søns, Kong Joas af Judas, tre og tyvende Regeringsår blev Joahaz, Jehus Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede sytten År i Samaria.
In the three and twentieth yeere of Ioash the sonne of Ahaziah King of Iudah, Iehoahaz the sonne of Iehu began to reigne ouer Israel in Samaria, and he reigned seuenteene yeere.
2 Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRNs Øjne, og vandrede i de Synder, Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til; fra dem veg han ikke.
And he did euil in the sight of the Lord, and followed the sinnes of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, which made Israel to sinne, and departed not therefrom.
3 Da blussede HERRENs Vrede op mod Israel, og han gav dem til Stadighed i Kong Hazael af Arams og hans Søn Benhadads Hånd.
And the Lord was angry with Israel, and deliuered them into the hand of Hazael King of Aram, and into the hand of Ben-hadad the sonne of Hazael, all his dayes.
4 Men Joahaz bad HERREN om Nåde, og HERREN bønhørte ham, fordi han så Israels Trængsel; thi Arams Konge bragte Trængsel over dem;
And Iehoahaz besought the Lord, and the Lord heard him: for he saw the trouble of Israel, wherewith the King of Aram troubled them.
5 og HERREN gav Israel en Befrier, som friede dem af Arams Hånd; så boede Israeliterne i deres Telte som før.
(And the Lord gaue Israel a deliuerer, so that they came out from vnder the subiection of the Aramites. And the children of Israel dwelt in their tents as before time.
6 Dog veg de ikke fra de Synder, Jeroboams Hus havde forledt Israel til, men vandrede i dem; også Asjerastøtten blev stående i Samaria.
Neuerthelesse they departed not from the sinnes of the house of Ieroboam which made Israel sinne, but walked in them. euen the groue also remayned still in Samaria)
7 Thi Arams Konge levnede, ikke Joahaz flere Krigsfolk end halvtredsindstyve Ryttere, ti Stridsvogne og ti Tusinde Mand Fodfolk, men han tilintetgjorde dem og knuste dem til Støv.
For he had left of the people to Iehoahaz but fiftie horsemen, and tenne charets, and tenne thousand footemen, because the King of Aram had destroyed them, and made them like dust beaten to pouder.
8 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Joahaz, alt, hvad han udførte, og hans Heltegerninger står jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.
Concerning the rest of the actes of Iehoahaz and all that he did, and his valiant deedes, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
9 Så lagde Joahaz sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre, og man jordede ham i Samaria; og hans Søn Joas blev Konge i hans Sted.
And Iehoahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria, and Ioash his sonne reigned in his steade.
10 I Kong Joas af Judas syv og tredivte Regeringsår blev Joas. Joahaz's Søn, konge over Israel, og han herskede seksten År i Samaria.
In the seuen and thirtieth yere of Ioash King of Iudah began Iehoash the sonne of Iehoahaz to reigne ouer Israel in Samaria, and reigned sixteene yeere,
11 Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, og veg ikke fra nogen af de Synder, Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til, men vandrede i dem.
And did euil in the sight of the Lord: for he departed not from all the sinnes of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat that made Israel to sinne, but he walked therein.
12 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Joas, alt, hvad han udførte, og hans Heltegerninger, hvorledes han førte Krig med Kong Amazja af Juda, står jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.
Concerning the rest of the actes of Ioash and all that he did, and his valiant deedes, and how he fought against Amaziah King of Iudah, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
13 Så lagde Joas sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre; og Jeroboam satte sig på hans Trone. Joas blev jordet i Samaria hos Israels Konger.
And Ioash slept with his fathers, and Ieroboam sate vpon his seate: and Ioash was buryed in Samaria among the Kings of Israel.
14 Da Elisa blev ramt af den Sygdom, han døde af, kom Kong Joas af Israel ned til ham, bøjede sig grædende over ham og sagde: "Min Fader, min Fader, du Israels Vogne. og Ryttere!"
When Elisha fell sicke of his sickenesse whereof he dyed, Ioash the King of Israel came downe vnto him, and wept vpon his face, and sayd, O my father, my father, the charet of Israel, and the horsemen of the same.
15 Men Elisa sagde til ham: "bring Bue og Pile!" Og han bragte ham Bue og Pile.
Then Elisha sayde vnto him, Take a bowe and arrowes. And he tooke vnto him bowe and arrowes.
16 Da sagde han til Israels Konge: "Læg din Hånd på Buen!" Og da han gjorde det, lagde Elisa sine Hænder på Kongens
And he sayde to the King of Israel, Put thine hand vpon the bowe. And he put his hand vpon it. And Elisha put his hands vpon the Kings hands,
17 og sagde: "Luk Vinduet op mod Øst!" Og da han havde gjort det, sagde Elisa: "Skyd!" Og han skød. Da sagde Elisa: "En Sejrspil fra HERREN, en Sejrspil mod Aram! Du skal tilføje Aram et afgørende Nederlag ved Afek!"
And saide, Open the windowe Eastward. And when he had opened it, Elisha said, Shoote. And he shot. And he sayd, Beholde the arrowe of the Lordes deliuerance and the arrowe of deliuerance against Aram: for thou shalt smite the Aramites in Aphek, till thou hast consumed them.
18 Derpå sagde han: "Tag Pilene!" Og han tog dem. Da sagde han til Israels Konge: "Slå på Jorden!" Og han slog tre Gange, men holdt så op.
Againe he said, Take the arrowes. And he tooke them. And he sayde vnto the King of Israel, Smite the ground. And he smote thrise, and ceased.
19 Da vrededes den Guds Mand på ham og sagde: "Du burde have slået fem-seks Gange, så skulde du have tilføjet Aram et afgørende Nederlag, men nu skal du kun slå Aram tre Gange!"
Then the man of God was angry with him, and sayde, Thou shouldest haue smitten fiue or sixe times, so thou shouldest haue smitten Aram, till thou haddest consumed it, where nowe thou shalt smite Aram but thrise.
20 Så døde Elisa, og de jordede ham. År efter År trængte moabitiske Strejfskarer ind i Landet;
So Elisha dyed, and they buryed him. And certaine bandes of the Moabites came into the land that yeere.
21 og da nogle Israeliter engang fik Øje på en sådan Skare, netop som de var ved at jorde en Mand, kastede de Manden i Elisas Grav og løb deres Vej. Men da Manden kom i Berøring med Elisas Ben, blev han levende og rejste sig op.
And as they were burying a man, behold, they saw the souldiers: therfore they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha. And when the man was downe, and touched the bones of Elisha, he reuiued and stoode vpon his feete.
22 Kong Hazael af Aram trængle Israel hårdt, så længe Joabaz levede.
But Hazael King of Aram vexed Israel all the dayes of Iehoahaz.
23 Men HERREN forbarmede sig og ynkedes over dem og vendte sig til dem på Grund af sin Pagt med Abraham, Isak og Jakob; han vilde ikke tilintetgøre dem og havde endnu ikke stødt dem bort fra sit Åsyn.
Therefore the Lord had mercy on them and pitied them, and had respect vnto them because of his couenant with Abraham, Izhak, and Iaakob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from him as yet.
24 Men da Kong Hazael af Aram døde, og hans Søn Benhadad blev Konge i hans Sted,
So Hazael the King of Aram dyed: and Ben-hadad his sonne reigned in his stead.
25 tog Joas, Joahaz's Søn, de Byer tilbage fra Benhadad, Hazaels Søn, som han i Krigen havde frataget hans Fader Joahaz. Tre Gange slog Joas ham og tog de israelitiske Byer tilbage.
Therefore Iehoash the sonne of Iehoahaz returned, and tooke out of the hand of Ben-hadad the sonne of Hazael the cities which he had taken away by warre out of the hand of Iehoahaz his father: for three times did Ioash beate him, and restored the cities vnto Israel.
