< Anden Kongebog 14 >
1 I Joahaz' Søns, Kong Joas af Israel, andet Regeringsår blev Amazja, Joas's Søn, Konge over Juda.
The second yeere of Ioash sonne of Iehoahaz King of Israel reigned Amaziah the sonne of Ioash King of Iudah.
2 Han var fem og tyve År gammel, da han blev Konge, og han herskede ni og tyve År i Jerusalem. Hans Moder hed Jehoaddan og var fra Jerusalem.
He was fiue and twentie yeere olde when he began to reigne, and reigned nine and twentie yeere in Ierusalem, and his mothers name was Iehoadan of Ierusalem.
3 Han gjorde, hvad der var ret i HERRENs Øjne, om end ikke som hans Fader David; han handlede ganske som sin Fader Joas.
And he did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, yet not like Dauid his father, but did according to all that Ioash his father had done.
4 Hun forsvandt Offerhøjene ikke. men Folket blev ved med at ofre og tænde Offerild på Højene.
Notwithstanding the hie places were not taken away: for as yet the people did sacrifice and burnt incense in the hie places.
5 Da han havde sikret sig Magten, lod han dem af sine Folk dræbe, der havde dræbt hans Fader Kongen;
And when the kingdome was confirmed in his hand, he slewe his seruants which had killed the King his father.
6 men Mordernes Børn lod han ikke ihjelslå, i Henhold til hvad der står skrevet i Moses's Lovbog, hvor HERREN byder: "Fædre skal ikke lide Døden for Børns Skyld, og Børn skal ikke lide Døden for Fædres Skyld. Men enhver skal lide Døden for sin egen Synd."
But the children of those that did slay him, he slewe not, according vnto that that is written in the booke of the Lawe of Moses, wherein the Lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children put to death for the fathers: but euery man shall be put to death for his owne sinne.
7 Det var ham, der slog Edom i Saltdalen, 10.000 Mand, og indtog Sela, og han kaldte det Jokte'el, som det hedder den Dag i Dag.
He slew also of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and tooke the citie of Sela by warre, and called the name thereof Ioktheel vnto this day.
8 Ved den Tid sendte Amazja Sendebud til Jebus Søn Joahaz's Søn, Kong Joas af Israel, og lod sige: "Kom, lad os se hinanden under Øjne!"
Then Amaziah sent messengers to Iehoash the sonne of Iehoahaz, sonne of Iehu King of Israel, saying, Come, let vs see one another in the face.
9 Men Kong Joas af Israel sendte Kong Amazja af Juda det Svar: "Tidselen på Libanon sendte engang det Bud til Cederen på Libanon: Giv min Søn din Datter til Ægte! Men Libanons vilde byr løb hen over Tidselen og trampede den ned.
Then Iehoash the King of Israel sent to Amaziah King of Iudah, saying, The thistle that is in Lebanon, sent to the cedar that is in Lebanon, saying, Giue thy daughter to my sonne to wife: and the wilde beast that was in Lebanon, went and trode downe the thistle.
10 Du har slået Edom, og det har gjort dig overmodig; lad dig nu nøje med den Ære og bliv, hvor du er! Hvorfor vil du udfordre Ulykken og udsætte både dig selv og Juda for Fald?"
Because thou hast smitten Edom, thine heart hath made thee proud: bragge of glory, and tary at home. why doest thou prouoke to thine hurt, that thou shouldest fall, and Iudah with thee?
11 Men Amazja vilde intet høre. Så drog Kong Joas af Israel ud, og han og Kong Amazja af Juda så hinanden under Øjne ved Bet Sjemesj i Juda;
But Amaziah would not heare: therefore Iehoash King of Israel went vp: and he and Amaziah King of Iudah sawe one another in the face at Beth-shemesh which is in Iudah.
12 Juda blev slået af Israel, og de flygtede hver til sit.
And Iudah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fledde euery man to their tents.
13 Men Kong Joas af Israel tog Ahazjas Søn Joas's Søn. Kong Amazja af Juda, til Fange ved BetSjemesj og førte ham til Jerusalem. Derpå nedrev han Jerusalems Mur på en Strækning af 400 Alen, fra Efraimsporten til Hjørneporten;
But Iehoash King of Israel tooke Amaziah King of Iudah, the sonne of Iehoash the sonne of Ahaziah, at Beth-shemesh, and came to Ierusalem, and brake downe the wall of Ierusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, foure hundreth cubites.
14 og han tog alt det Guld og Sølv og alle de Kar, der fandtes i HERRENs Hus og i Skatkammeret i Kongens Palads; desuden tog han Gidsler og vendte så tilbage til Samaria.
And he tooke all the gold and siluer, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the Kings house, and the children that were in hostage, and returned to Samaria.
15 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Joas, alt, hvad han udførte, og alle hans Heltegerninger, og hvorledes han førte Krig med Kong Amazja af Juda, står jo optegoet i Israels Kongers Krønike.
Concerning the rest of the acts of Iehoash which he did and his valiant deedes, and how he fought with Amaziah King of Iudah, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
16 Så lagde Joas sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre og blev jordet i Samaria hos Israels Konger; og hans Søn Jeroboam blev Konge i hans Sted.
And Iehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried at Samaria among the Kings of Israel: and Ieroboam his sonne reigned in his stead.
17 Joas's Søn, Kong Amazja af Juda, levede endnu femten År, efter at Joahaz's Søn, Kong Joas af Israel, var død.
And Amaziah the sonne of Ioash King of Iudah, liued after the death of Iehoash sonne of Iehoahaz King of Israel fifteene yeere.

19 Da der stiftedes en Sammensværgelse mod ham i Jerusalem, flygtede han til Lakisj; men der blev sendt Folk efter ham til Lakisj, og de dræbte ham der.
But they wrought treason against him in Ierusalem, and he fled to Lachish, but they sent after him to Lachish, and slewe him there.
20 Så løftede man ham op på Heste, og han blev jordet i Jerusalem hos sine Fædre i Davidsbyen.
And they brought him on horses, and he was buried at Ierusalem with his fathers in the citie of Dauid.
21 Hele Folket i Juda tog så Azarja, der dengang var seksten År gammel, og gjorde ham til Konge i hans Fader Amazjas Sted.
Then all the people of Iudah tooke Azariah which was sixteene yeere olde, and made him King for his father Amaziah.
22 Det var ham, der befæstede Elat og atter forenede det med Juda, efter at Kongen havde lagt sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre.
He built Elath, and restored it to Iudah, after that the King slept with his fathers.
23 I Joas's Søns, Kong Amazja af Judas, femtende Regeringsår ble Jeroboam, Joas's Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede een og fyrretyve År i Samaria.
In the fifteenth yeere of Amaziah the sonne of Ioash King of Iudah, was Ieroboam the sonne of Ioash made King ouer Israel in Samaria, and reigned one and fourtie yeere.
24 Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, og veg ikke fra nogen af de Synder, Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til.
And he did euill in the sight of the Lord: for he departed not from all the sinnes of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, which made Israel to sinne.
25 Han tog Israels Landområde tilbage fra Egnen hen imod Hamat og til Arabasøen, efter det Ord, HERREN, Israels Gud, havde talet ved sin Tjener, Profeten Jonas, Amittajs Søn, fra Gat-Hefer.
He restored the coast of Israel, from the entring of Hamath, vnto the Sea of the wildernesse, according to the worde of the Lord God of Israel, which he spake by his seruant Ionah the sonne of Amittai the Prophet, which was of Gath Hepher.
26 Thi HERREN havde set Israels bitre Kvide, hvorledes de reves bort alle som een, fordi Israel ikke havde nogen Hjælper;
For the Lord saw the exceeding bitter affliction of Israel, so that there was none shutte vp, nor any left, neyther yet any that could helpe Israel.
27 og HERREN havde ikke talet om, at han vilde udslette Israels Navn under Himmelen, derfor frelste han dem ved Jeroboam, Joas's Søn.
Yet the Lord had not decreed to put out the name of Israel from vnder the heauen: therefore he preserued them by the hand of Ieroboam the sonne of Ioash.
28 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Jeroboam, alt, hvad han udførte, og hans Heltegerninger, hvorledes han førte Krig, og hvorledes han tog Damaskus og Hamat til bage til Israel, står jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.
