1 Kings 15
1 Abijam became king of Judah in the eighteenth year of the reign of King Jeroboam, son of Nebat.
καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀκτωκαιδεκάτῳ ἔτει βασιλεύοντος Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ βασιλεύει Αβιου υἱὸς Ροβοαμ ἐπὶ Ιουδα
2 He reigned in Jerusalem for three years. His mother's name was Maacah, daughter of Abishalom.
καὶ ἓξ ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν καὶ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Μααχα θυγάτηρ Αβεσσαλωμ
3 Abijam committed all the sins his father had before him. He was not wholly dedicated to the Lord his God as his forefather David had been.
καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ αἷς ἐποίησεν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἦν ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ τελεία μετὰ κυρίου θεοῦ αὐτοῦ ὡς ἡ καρδία Δαυιδ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ
4 Even so, for David's sake, the Lord his God let his descendants to continue to rule like a lamp, a son to rule after him and to make Jerusalem strong.
ὅτι διὰ Δαυιδ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ κύριος κατάλειμμα ἵνα στήσῃ τέκνα αὐτοῦ μετ’ αὐτὸν καὶ στήσῃ τὴν Ιερουσαλημ
5 For David had done what was right in the Lord's sight, and had not deviated from anything the Lord commanded throughout his lifetime, except in the case of Uriah the Hittite.
ὡς ἐποίησεν Δαυιδ τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον κυρίου οὐκ ἐξέκλινεν ἀπὸ πάντων ὧν ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ζωῆς αὐτοῦ
6 (Rehoboam and Jeroboam were always at war with each other.)
7 The rest of what happened in Abijam's reign and everything that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah. Abijam and Jeroboam were always at war with each other.
καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Αβιου καὶ πάντα ἃ ἐποίησεν οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ιουδα καὶ πόλεμος ἦν ἀνὰ μέσον Αβιου καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Ιεροβοαμ
8 Abijam died and was buried the City of David. His son Asa succeeded him as king.
καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Αβιου μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ εἰκοστῷ καὶ τετάρτῳ ἔτει τοῦ Ιεροβοαμ καὶ θάπτεται μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυιδ καὶ βασιλεύει Ασα υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ’ αὐτοῦ
9 Asa became king of Judah in the twentieth year of the reign of Jeroboam, king of Israel.
ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ τῷ τετάρτῳ καὶ εἰκοστῷ τοῦ Ιεροβοαμ βασιλέως Ισραηλ βασιλεύει Ασα ἐπὶ Ιουδαν
10 He reigned in Jerusalem forty-one years. His grandmother's name was Maakah, daughter of Abishalom.
καὶ τεσσαράκοντα καὶ ἓν ἔτος ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Ανα θυγάτηρ Αβεσσαλωμ
11 Asa did what was right in the Lord's sight, as his forefather David had done.
καὶ ἐποίησεν Ασα τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον κυρίου ὡς Δαυιδ ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ
12 He expelled the cult prostitutes from the land and got rid of all of the idols that his forefathers had made.
καὶ ἀφεῖλεν τὰς τελετὰς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν πάντα τὰ ἐπιτηδεύματα ἃ ἐποίησαν οἱ πατέρες αὐτοῦ
13 He even dismissed his grandmother Maacah as queen mother, because she had made a disgusting idol. Asa had the idol chopped down and burned in the Kidron Valley.
καὶ τὴν Ανα τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ μετέστησεν τοῦ μὴ εἶναι ἡγουμένην καθὼς ἐποίησεν σύνοδον ἐν τῷ ἄλσει αὐτῆς καὶ ἐξέκοψεν Ασα τὰς καταδύσεις αὐτῆς καὶ ἐνέπρησεν πυρὶ ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ Κεδρων
14 Though the high places were not removed, Asa was completely committed to the Lord all his life.
τὰ δὲ ὑψηλὰ οὐκ ἐξῆρεν πλὴν ἡ καρδία Ασα ἦν τελεία μετὰ κυρίου πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας αὐτοῦ
15 He brought into the house of the Lord the silver and gold and the other items that he and his father had dedicated.
καὶ εἰσήνεγκεν τοὺς κίονας τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς κίονας αὐτοῦ εἰσήνεγκεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον κυρίου ἀργυροῦς καὶ χρυσοῦς καὶ σκεύη
16 Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, were always at war with each other.
καὶ πόλεμος ἦν ἀνὰ μέσον Ασα καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Βαασα βασιλέως Ισραηλ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας
17 Baasha, king of Israel, attacked Judah and fortified Ramah to stop people coming from or going to Asa, king of Judah.
καὶ ἀνέβη Βαασα βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ ἐπὶ Ιουδαν καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν τὴν Ραμα τοῦ μὴ εἶναι ἐκπορευόμενον καὶ εἰσπορευόμενον τῷ Ασα βασιλεῖ Ιουδα
18 So Asa took all the silver and gold that was left in the treasuries of the Lord's Temple and of the royal palace. He handed it over to his servants and sent them to Ben-hadad, son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, king of Aram, who lived in Damascus, along with this message:
καὶ ἔλαβεν Ασα τὸ ἀργύριον καὶ τὸ χρυσίον τὸ εὑρεθὲν ἐν τοῖς θησαυροῖς τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὰ εἰς χεῖρας παίδων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς ὁ βασιλεὺς Ασα πρὸς υἱὸν Αδερ υἱὸν Ταβερεμμαν υἱοῦ Αζιν βασιλέως Συρίας τοῦ κατοικοῦντος ἐν Δαμασκῷ λέγων
19 “Let us make a treaty between us, just as there was between my father and your father. Look, I've sent you a gift of silver and gold. Go and break your treaty with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he will retreat and leave me alone.”
διάθου διαθήκην ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον σοῦ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ πατρός μου καὶ τοῦ πατρός σου ἰδοὺ ἐξαπέσταλκά σοι δῶρα ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον δεῦρο διασκέδασον τὴν διαθήκην σου τὴν πρὸς Βαασα βασιλέα Ισραηλ καὶ ἀναβήσεται ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ
20 Ben-hadad accepted Asa's proposal and sent his army with its commanders to attack the towns of Israel. They captured the towns of Ijon, Dan, Abel-beth-maacah, and all Kinnereth, including all the land of Naphtali.
καὶ ἤκουσεν υἱὸς Αδερ τοῦ βασιλέως Ασα καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τοὺς ἄρχοντας τῶν δυνάμεων τῶν αὐτοῦ ταῖς πόλεσιν τοῦ Ισραηλ καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὴν Αιν καὶ τὴν Δαν καὶ τὴν Αβελμαα καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν Χεζραθ ἕως πάσης τῆς γῆς Νεφθαλι
21 When Baasha heard about this, he stopped fortifying Ramah and retreated to Tirzah.
καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἤκουσεν Βαασα καὶ διέλιπεν τοῦ οἰκοδομεῖν τὴν Ραμα καὶ ἀνέστρεψεν εἰς Θερσα
22 Then King Asa issued a proclamation throughout all Judah, with no exception. The people obeyed, and carried away the stones and the timbers Baasha had used for building up Ramah. King Asa used these building materials to strengthen Geba of Benjamin, as well as Mizpah.
καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς Ασα παρήγγειλεν παντὶ Ιουδα εἰς Αινακιμ καὶ αἴρουσιν τοὺς λίθους τῆς Ραμα καὶ τὰ ξύλα αὐτῆς ἃ ᾠκοδόμησεν Βαασα καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν αὐτοῖς ὁ βασιλεὺς Ασα πᾶν βουνὸν Βενιαμιν καὶ τὴν σκοπιάν
23 The rest of what happened in Asa's reign, all his achievements, everything that he did, and the towns he built, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah. But when he grew old he had disease in his feet.
καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ασα καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δυναστεία αὐτοῦ ἣν ἐποίησεν οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐστὶν ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ιουδα πλὴν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ τοῦ γήρως αὐτοῦ ἐπόνεσεν τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ
24 Asa died and was buried with his ancestors in the City of David. His son Jehoshaphat succeeded him as king.
καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ασα καὶ θάπτεται μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυιδ καὶ βασιλεύει Ιωσαφατ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ’ αὐτοῦ
25 Nadab, son of Jeroboam became king of Israel in the second year of the reign of King Asa of Judah. He reigned in Israel for two years.
καὶ Ναδαβ υἱὸς Ιεροβοαμ βασιλεύει ἐπὶ Ισραηλ ἐν ἔτει δευτέρῳ τοῦ Ασα βασιλέως Ιουδα καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ Ισραηλ ἔτη δύο
26 He did what was evil in the Lord's sight. He followed the ways of his father and committed the same sins his father had made Israel commit.
καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτοῦ αἷς ἐξήμαρτεν τὸν Ισραηλ
27 Baasha, son of Ahijah of the tribe of Issachar, plotted a rebellion against him. Baasha murdered Nadab at the Philistine town of Gibbethon while Nadab and the whole Israelite army were besieging it.
καὶ περιεκάθισεν αὐτὸν Βαασα υἱὸς Αχια ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Βελααν καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν ἐν Γαβαθων τῇ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ Ναδαβ καὶ πᾶς Ισραηλ περιεκάθητο ἐπὶ Γαβαθων
28 Baasha killed Nadab and took over as king in the third year of the reign of King Asa of Judah.
καὶ ἐθανάτωσεν αὐτὸν Βαασα ἐν ἔτει τρίτῳ τοῦ Ασα υἱοῦ Αβιου βασιλέως Ιουδα καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν
29 As soon as he became king he killed all the rest of Jeroboam's family. He did not leave any of Jeroboam's descendants alive—he destroyed them all, as the Lord had said through his servant Ahijah the Shilonite.
καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἐβασίλευσεν καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὸν οἶκον Ιεροβοαμ καὶ οὐχ ὑπελίπετο πᾶσαν πνοὴν τοῦ Ιεροβοαμ ἕως τοῦ ἐξολεθρεῦσαι αὐτὸν κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα κυρίου ὃ ἐλάλησεν ἐν χειρὶ δούλου αὐτοῦ Αχια τοῦ Σηλωνίτου
30 This happened because of the sins Jeroboam had committed and had made Israel commit, and because he had made the Lord, the God of Israel, angry.
περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν Ιεροβοαμ ὡς ἐξήμαρτεν τὸν Ισραηλ καὶ ἐν τῷ παροργισμῷ αὐτοῦ ᾧ παρώργισεν τὸν κύριον θεὸν τοῦ Ισραηλ
31 The rest of what happened in Nadab's reign and everything that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ναδαβ καὶ πάντα ἃ ἐποίησεν οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐστὶν ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ισραηλ
32 Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, were always at war with each other.
33 Baasha, son of Ahijah, became king over all of Israel in the third year of the reign of King Asa in Judah. Baasha reigned in Tirzah for twenty-four years.
καὶ ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ τρίτῳ τοῦ Ασα βασιλέως Ιουδα βασιλεύει Βαασα υἱὸς Αχια ἐπὶ Ισραηλ ἐν Θερσα εἴκοσι καὶ τέσσαρα ἔτη
34 Baasha did what was evil in the Lord's sight and followed the way of Jeroboam and his sin, which he had made Israel commit.
καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτοῦ ὡς ἐξήμαρτεν τὸν Ισραηλ
