2 Chronicles 21
1 Iehosphaphat then slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the citie of Dauid: and Iehoram his sonne reigned in his steade.
Dormivit autem Iosaphat cum patribus suis, et sepultus est cum eis in Civitate David: regnavitque Ioram filius eius pro eo.
2 And he had brethren the sonnes of Iehoshaphat, Azariah, and Iehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah. All these were the sonnes of Iehoshaphat King of Israel.
Qui habuit fratres filios Iosaphat, Azariam, et Iahiel, et Zachariam, et Azariam, et Michael, et Saphatiam. omnes hi, filii Iosaphat regis Iuda.
3 And their father gaue them great giftes of siluer and of golde, and of precious things, with strong cities in Iudah, but the kingdome gaue he to Iehoram: for he was the eldest.
Deditque eis pater suus multa munera argenti, et auri, et pensitationes, cum civitatibus munitissimis in Iuda: regnum autem tradidit Ioram, eo quod esset primogenitus.
4 And Iehoram rose vp vpon the kingdom of his father, and made himselfe strong, and slew all his brethren with the sworde, and also of the princes of Israel.
Surrexit ergo Ioram super regnum patris sui: cumque se confirmasset, occidit omnes fratres suos gladio, et quosdam de principibus Israel.
5 Iehoram was two and thirtie yeere olde, when he began to reigne, and he reigned eyght yeere in Ierusalem.
Trigintaduorum annorum erat Ioram cum regnare coepisset: et octo annis regnavit in Ierusalem.
6 And he walked in the way of the Kings of Israel, as the house of Ahab had done: for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife, and he wrought euill in the eyes of the Lord.
Ambulavitque in viis regum Israel, sicut egerat domus Achab: filia quippe Achab erat uxor eius, et fecit malum in conspectu Domini.
7 Howbeit the Lord would not destroy the house of Dauid, because of the couenant that he had made with Dauid, and because he had promised to giue a light to him, and to his sonnes for euer.
Noluit autem Dominus disperdere domum David propter pactum, quod inierat cum eo: et quia promiserat ut daret ei lucernam, et filiis eius omni tempore.
8 In his dayes Edom rebelled from vnder the hand of Iudah, and made a King ouer them.
In diebus illis rebellavit Edom, ne esset subditus Iudae, et constituit sibi regem.
9 And Iehoram went forth with his princes, and all his charets with him: and hee rose vp by night, and smote Edom, which had compassed him in, and the captaines of the charets.
Cumque transisset Ioram cum principibus suis, et cuncto equitatu, qui erat secum, surrexit nocte, et percussit Edom qui se circumdederat, et omnes duces equitatus eius.
10 But Edom rebelled from vnder the hande of Iudah vnto this day. then did Libnah rebell at the same time from vnder his hand, because he had forsaken the Lord God of his fathers.
Attamen rebellavit Edom, ne esset sub ditione Iuda usque ad hanc diem: eo tempore et Lobna recessit ne esset sub manu illius. Dereliquerat enim Dominum Deum patrum suorum:
11 Moreouer hee made hie places in the mountaines of Iudah, and caused the inhabitants of Ierusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Iudah thereto.
insuper et excelsa fabricatus est in urbibus Iuda, et fornicari fecit habitatores Ierusalem, et praevaricari Iudam.
12 And there came a writing to him from Elijah the Prophet, saying, Thus sayth the Lord God of Dauid thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the wayes of Iehoshaphat thy father, nor in the wayes of Asa King of Iudah,
Allatae sunt autem ei litterae ab Elia propheta, in quibus scriptum erat: Haec dicit Dominus Deus David patris tui: Quoniam non ambulasti in via Iosaphat patris tui, et in viis Asa regis Iuda,
13 But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Iudah and the inhabitantes of Ierusalem to go a whoring, as the house of Ahab went a whoring, and hast also slaine thy brethre of thy fathers house, which were better then thou,
sed incessisti per iter regum Israel, et fornicari fecisti Iudam, et habitatores Ierusalem, imitatus fornicationem domus Achab, insuper et fratres tuos domum patris tui, meliores te occidisti:
14 Beholde, with a great plague will the Lord smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wiues, and all thy substance,
ecce Dominus percutiet te plaga magna cum populo tuo, et filiis, et uxoribus tuis, universaque substantia tua.
15 And thou shalt be in great diseases in the disease of thy bowels, vntill thy bowels fall out for the disease, day by day.
tu autem aegrotabis pessimo languore uteri tui, donec egrediantur vitalia tua paulatim per singulos dies.
16 So the Lord stirred vp against Iehoram the spirite of the Philistims, and the Arabians that were beside the Ethiopians.
Suscitavit ergo Dominus contra Ioram spiritum Philisthinorum, et Arabum, qui confines sunt Aethiopibus.
17 And they came vp into Iudah, and brake into it, and caryed away all the substance that was found in the Kings house, and his sonnes also, and his wiues, so that there was not a sonne left him, saue Iehoahaz, the yongest of his sonnes.
et ascenderunt in Terram Iuda, et vastaverunt eam, diripueruntque cunctam substantiam, quae inventa est in domo regis, insuper et filios eius, et uxores: nec remansit ei filius, nisi Ioachaz, qui minimus natu erat.
18 And after all this, the Lord smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
Et super haec omnia percussit eum Dominus alvi languore insanabili.
19 And in processe of time, euen after the end of two yeeres, his guttes fell out with his disease: so he dyed of sore diseases: and his people made no burning for him like the burning of his fathers.
Cumque diei succederet dies, et temporum spatia volverentur, duorum annorum expletus est circulus: et sic longa consumptus tabe, ita ut egereret etiam viscera sua, languore pariter, et vita caruit. Mortuusque est in infirmitate pessima, et non fecit ei populus secundum morem combustionis, exequias, sicut fecerat maioribus eius.
20 When he began to reigne, he was two and thirtie yeere olde, and reigned in Ierusalem eight yeere, and liued without being desired: yet they buryed him in the citie of Dauid, but not among the sepulchres of the Kings.
Trigintaduorum annorum fuit, cum regnare coepisset, et octo annis regnavit in Ierusalem. Ambulavitque non recte, et sepelierunt eum in Civitate David: verumtamen non in sepulchro regum.
