2 Kings 15

1 In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam’s reign over Israel, Azariah son of Amaziah became king of Judah.

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

2 He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-two years. His mother’s name was Jecoliah; she was from Jerusalem.

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.

3 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father Amaziah had done.

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

4 Nevertheless, the high places were not taken away; the people continued sacrificing and burning incense there.

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

5 And the LORD afflicted the king with leprosy until the day he died, so that he lived in a separate house while his son Jotham had charge of the palace and governed the people of the land.

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.

6 As for the rest of the acts of Azariah, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

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

7 And Azariah rested with his fathers and was buried near them in the City of David. And his son Jotham reigned in his place.

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.

8 In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah’s reign over Judah, Zechariah son of Jeroboam became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria six months.

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

9 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his fathers had done. He did not turn away from the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit.

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.

10 Then Shallum son of Jabesh conspired against Zechariah, struck him down and killed him in front of the people, and reigned in his place.

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

11 As for the rest of the acts of Zechariah, they are indeed written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

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

12 So the word of the LORD spoken to Jehu was fulfilled: “Four generations of your sons will sit on the throne of Israel.”

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.

13 In the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah’s reign over Judah, Shallum son of Jabesh became king, and he reigned in Samaria one full month.

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

14 Then Menahem son of Gadi went up from Tirzah to Samaria, struck down and killed Shallum son of Jabesh, and reigned in his place.

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.

15 As for the rest of the acts of Shallum, along with the conspiracy he led, they are indeed written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

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

16 At that time Menahem, starting from Tirzah, attacked Tiphsah and everyone in its vicinity, because they would not open their gates. So he attacked Tiphsah and ripped open all the pregnant women.

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.

17 In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah’s reign over Judah, Menahem son of Gadi became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria ten years.

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

18 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and throughout his reign he did not turn away from the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit.

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

19 Then Pul king of Assyria invaded the land, and Menahem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver in order to gain his support and strengthen his own grip on the kingdom.

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;

20 Menahem exacted this money from each of the wealthy men of Israel—fifty shekels of silver from each man—to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria withdrew and did not remain in the land.

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.

21 As for the rest of the acts of Menahem, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

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

22 And Menahem rested with his fathers, and his son Pekahiah reigned in his place.

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

23 In the fiftieth year of Azariah’s reign over Judah, Pekahiah son of Menahem became king of Israel and reigned in Samaria two years.

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

24 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD and did not turn away from the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit.

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

25 Then his officer, Pekah son of Remaliah, conspired against him along with Argob, Arieh, and fifty men of Gilead. And at the citadel of the king’s palace in Samaria, Pekah struck down and killed Pekahiah and reigned in his place.

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.

26 As for the rest of the acts of Pekahiah, along with all his accomplishments, they are indeed written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

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

27 In the fifty-second year of Azariah’s reign over Judah, Pekah son of Remaliah became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria twenty years.

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

28 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD and did not turn away from the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit.

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

29 In the days of Pekah king of Israel, Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria came and captured Ijon, Abel-beth-maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, Gilead, and Galilee, including all the land of Naphtali, and he took the people as captives to Assyria.

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.

30 Then Hoshea son of Elah led a conspiracy against Pekah son of Remaliah. In the twentieth year of Jotham son of Uzziah, Hoshea attacked Pekah, killed him, and reigned in his place.

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.

31 As for the rest of the acts of Pekah, along with all his accomplishments, they are indeed written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

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

32 In the second year of the reign of Pekah son of Remaliah over Israel, Jotham son of Uzziah became king of Judah.

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

33 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s name was Jerusha daughter of Zadok.

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.

34 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father Uzziah had done.

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

35 Nevertheless, the high places were not taken away; the people continued sacrificing and burning incense there. Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate of the house of the LORD.

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.

36 As for the rest of the acts of Jotham, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

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

37 (In those days the LORD began to send Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah against Judah.)

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

38 And Jotham rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David his father. And his son Ahaz reigned in his place.

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.
