1 Kings 16

1 Then this message from the Lord came to the prophet Jehu, son of Hanani, condemning Baasha.

Men til Jehu, Hananis Søn, kom HERRENs ord mod Ba'sja således:

2 “Even though I lifted you out of the dust to make you ruler over my people Israel, you have followed the way of Jeroboam and have made my people Israel sin, making me angry by their sins.

"Jeg ophøjede dig af Støvet og gjorde dig til Fyrste over mit Folk Israel, dog har du vandret i Jeroboams Spor og forledt mit Folk Israel til Synd, så de krænker mig ved deres Synder;

3 Now I'm going to destroy Baasha and his family. Baasha, I will make your family like that of Jeroboam, son of Nebat.

se, derfor vil jeg nu feje Basja og hans Hus bort og gøre det samme ved dit Hus, som jeg gjorde ved Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Hus;

4 Those of Baasha's family who die in the town will be eaten by dogs, and those who die in the countryside will be eaten by birds.”

den af Basjas Slægt, som dør i Byen, skal Hundene æde, og den, som dør på Marken, skal Himmelens Fugle æde!"

5 The rest of the events of Baasha's reign, everything that he did and what he accomplished, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Ba'sja, hvad han gjorde, og hans Heltegerninger, står jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

6 Baasha died and was buried in Tirzah. His son Elah succeeded him as king.

Så lagde Ba'sja sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre og blev jordet i Tirza; og hans Søn Ela blev Konge i hans Sted.

7 The message from the Lord condemning Baasha and his family came to the prophet Jehu, son of Hanani. It came because Baasha had done what was evil in the Lord's sight, in the same way as the family of Jeroboam had done, and also because Baasha had killed Jeroboam's family. The Lord was angry because of Baasha's sins.

Desuden kom HERRENs Ord ved Profeten Jehu, Hananis Søn, mod Ba'sja og hans Hus både på Grund af alt det, han havde gjort, som var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, idet han krænkede ham ved sine Hænders Værk og efterlignede Jeroboams Hus, og tillige fordi han lod dette nedhugge.

8 Elah, son of Baasha, became king of Israel in the twenty-sixth year of the reign of King Asa of Judah. He reigned in Tirzah for two years.

I Kong Asa af Judas seks og tyvende Regeringsår blev Ela, Ba'sjas Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede to År i Tirza.

9 One of Elah's officials called Zimri who was in charge of half his chariots plotted a rebellion against him. One time Elah was in Tirzah, getting himself drunk at the home of Arza, the palace manager at Tirzah.

Så stiftede en af hans Mænd, Zimri, der var Fører for den ene Halvdel af Stridsvognene, en Sammensværgelse imod ham; og engang, da han i Tirza var beruset ved et Drikkelag i sin Paladsøverste Arzas Hus,

10 Zimri went up to him, attacked him, and killed him. This was in the twenty-seventh year of the reign of Asa, king of Judah. Then he took over from him as king.

trængte Zimri ind og slog ham ihjel - i Kong Asa af Judas syv og tyvende Regeringsår - og blev Konge i hans Sted.

11 As soon as he became king and was installed on his throne, he killed all of Baasha's family. He did not leave a single male alive, whether of his relatives or of his friends.

Da han var blevet Konge og havde besteget Tronen, lod han hele Basjas Hus dræbe uden at levne et mandligt Væsen og tillige hans nærmeste Slægtninge og Venner;

12 So Zimri destroyed the entire household of Baasha, as the Lord had said in his condemnation of Baasha through Jehu the prophet.

således udryddede Zimri hele Ba'sjas Hus efter det Ord, HERREN havde talet til Basja ved Profeten Jehu,

13 This was because of all the sins Baasha and his son Elah had committed and had made Israel to commit. Their worship of their useless idols had angered the Lord, the God of Israel.

for alle de Synders Skyld, som Ba'sja og hans Søn Ela havde begået og forledt Israel til, så at de krænkede HERREN, Israels Gud, ved deres Afguder.

14 The rest of what happened in Elah's reign and everything that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

Hvad der ellers er af fortælle om Ela, alt, hvad han gjorde, står jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

15 Zimri became king of Israel in the twenty-seventh year of the reign of King Asa of Judah. He reigned in Tirzah seven days. At that time the Israelite army was attacking the Philistine town of Gibbethon.

I Kong Asa af Judas syv og tyvende Regeringsår blev Zimri Konge, og han herskede syv Dage i Tirza. Hæren var på det Tidspunkt ved at belejre Gibbeton, som tilhørte Filisterne;

16 When the troops who were camped there learned that Zimri had plotted rebellion against the king and had murdered him, they made Omri, the army commander, king of Israel that same day in the army camp.

og da nu Hæren under Belejringen hørte, at Zimri havde sfiftet en Sammensværgelse mod Kongen og endda dræbt ham, udråbte hele Israel samme Dag i Lejren Omri, Israels Hærfører, til Konge.

17 Omri and the whole Israelite army left Gibbethon and went and besieged Tirzah.

Derpå hrød Omri op med hele Israel fra Gibbeton og begyndte at belejre Tirza;

18 When Zimri saw that the city had been taken he went into the fortress of the royal palace and set it on fire around him, and he died, because of the sins he had committed.

og da Zimri så at Byen var taget, begav han sig ind i Kongens Palads og stak det i Brand over sig; således døde han

19 He did evil in the Lord's sight and followed the way of Jeroboam and his sin which he had made Israel commit.

for de Synders Skyld, han havde begået, idet han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, og vandrede i Jeroboams Spor og i de Synder, han havde begået, da han forledte Israel til at synde.

20 The rest of what happened in Zimri's reign and his rebellion are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Zimri og den Sammensværgelse, han stiftede, står jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

21 After this the people of Israel were divided. Half supported Tibni, son of Ginath, as king, while the other half supported Omri.

Ved den Tid delte Israels Folk sig, idet den ene Halvdel slutfede sig fil Tibni, Ginats Søn, og udråbte ham til Konge, medens den anden sluttede sig til Omri.

22 However, those on Omri's side defeated Tibni's supporters. Tibni was killed and Omri became king.

Men den Del af Folket, der sluttede sig til Omri, fik Overtaget over dem, der sluttede sig til Tibni, Ginats Søn, og da Tibni døde ved den Tid, blev Omri Konge.

23 Omri became king of Israel in the thirty-first year of the reign of King Asa of Judah. He reigned for a total of twelve years, (six of them were in Tirzah).

I Kong Asa af Judas een og tredivte Regeringsår blev Omri Konge over Israel, og han herskede tolv År. Først herskede han seks År i Tirza;

24 He purchased the hill of Samaria from Shemer for two talents of silver. He fortified the hill, and named the city that he built Samaria, after Shemer, the previous owner of the hill.

men siden købte han Samarias Bjerg af Semer for to Talenter Sølv og byggede på Bjerget en By, som han efter Semer, Bjergets Ejer, kaldte Samaria.

25 Omri did what was evil in the Lord's sight—in fact he did more evil than those who lived before him.

Omri gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, og handlede endnu værre end alle hans Forgængere;

26 For he followed all the ways of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, and in his sins which he made Israel commit, worshiping their useless idols which angered the Lord, the God of Israel.

han vandrede helt i Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Spor og i de Synder, han havde forledt Israel til, så at de krænkede HERREN, Israels Gud, ved deres Afguder.

27 The rest of what happened in Omri's reign, what he did, and his achievements are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Omri, alt, hvad han gjorde, og de Heltegerninger, han udførte, står jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

28 Omri died and was buried in Samaria. His son Ahab succeeded him as king.

Så lagde Omri sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre og blev jordet i Samaria; og hans Søn Akab blev Konge i hans Sted.

29 Ahab, son of Omri, became king of Israel in the thirty-eighth year of the reign of King Asa of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for twenty-two years.

Akab, Omris Søn, blev Konge over Israel i Kong Asa af Judas otte og tredivte Regeringsår, og Akab, Omris Søn, herskede to og tyve År over Israel i Samaria.

30 Ahab, son of Omri, did evil in the Lord's sight, more than those who lived before him.

Akab, Omris Søn, gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, i højere Grad end alle hans Forgængere.

31 He didn't see anything to worry about in following the sins of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, and he even married Jezebel, daughter of Ethbaal, king of the Sidonians, and started to serve and worship Baal.

Og som om det ikke var nok med, at han vandrede i Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Synder, ægtede han oven i Købet Jesabel, en Datter af Zidoniemes Konge Etba'al, og gik hen og dyrkede Ba'al og tilbad ham.

32 Ahab made an altar for Baal in the temple of Baal that he had built in Samaria.

Han rejste Ba'al et Alter i Ba'alstemplet, som han lod bygge i Samaria.

33 Then he put up an Asherah pole. In this way Ahab did more to anger the Lord, the God of Israel, than all the kings of Israel before him.

Og Akab lavede Asjerastøtten og gjorde endnu flere Ting, hvorved han krænkede HERREN, Israels Gud, værre end de Konger, der havde hersket før ham i Israel. -

34 During Ahab's reign Hiel of Bethel rebuilt Jericho. He sacrificed Abiram his firstborn son when he laid its foundation, and sacrificed Segub his youngest son when he constructed its gates. This fulfilled the message the Lord had given through Joshua, son of Nun.

I hans Dage genopbyggede Beteliten Hiel Jeriko; efter det Ord, HERREN havde taleted Josua, Nuns Søn, kostede det ham hans førstefødte Abiram at lægge Grunden og hans yngste Søn Seguh at sætte dens Portfløje ind.
