2 Kings 21
1 Manasseh was twelue yeere olde when he began to reigne, and reigned fiftie and fiue yeere in Ierusalem: his mothers name also was Hephzi-bah.
Tolv år gamall var Manasse då han vart konge, fem og femti år rådde han i Jerusalem. Mor hans heitte Hefsiba.
2 And he did euill in the sight of the Lord after the abomination of the heathen, whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.
Han gjorde det som vondt var i Herrens augo, likt med dei avstyggjelege skikkarne hjå dei folki Herren hadde rudt ut for Israels-borni.
3 For he went backe and built the hie places, which Hezekiah his father had destroyed: and he erected vp altars for Baal, and made a groue, as did Ahab King of Israel, and worshipped all the hoste of heauen and serued them.
Han bygde upp att dei offerhaugarne som Hizkia, far hans, hadde lagt i øyde, og reiste altar for Ba’al og laga Astarte-bilæte, liksom Ahab, Israels-kongen, hadde gjort, og kasta seg ned for og tente heile himmelheren.
4 Also he built altars in the house of the Lord, of the which the Lord saide, In Ierusalem will I put my Name.
Ja, han bygde altar i Herrens hus, der som Herren hadde sagt: «Til Jerusalem vil eg festa namnet mitt.»
5 And he built altars for al the hoste of ye heauen in the two courtes of the house of the Lord.
I båe tuni kring Herrens hus bygde han altar for heile himmelheren.
6 And he caused his sonnes to passe through the fire, and gaue him selfe to witchcraft and sorcerie, and he vsed them that had familiar spirits and were soothsayers, and did much euill in the sight of the Lord to anger him.
Han vigde son sin i elden og for med spådom og trolldom, og tinga folk til å mana fram draugar og spåvette. Han gjorde mykje som var vondt i Herrens augo, og harma honom.
7 And he set the image of the groue, that he had made, in the house, whereof ye Lord had saide to Dauid and to Salomon his sonne, In this house and in Ierusalem, which I haue chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my Name for euer.
Astarte-bilætet som han hadde laga, sette han i det huset som Herren hadde sagt um til David og Salomo, son hans: «Til dette huset og til Jerusalem, som eg hev valt ut millom alle Israels ætter, vil eg festa namnet mitt i all æva.
8 Neither will I make the feete of Israel, mooue any more out of the lande, which I gaue their fathers: so that they will obserue and doe all that I haue commanded them, and according to all the Lawe that my seruant Moses commanded them.
Eg vil ikkje meir lata Israel flakka heimlaus burt frå landet eg gav federne deira. Berre dei gjer og heldt seg etter alle mine bod og etter heile lovi som Moses, tenaren min, gav deim!»
9 Yet they obeyed not, but Manasseh ledde them out of the way, to doe more wickedly then did the heathen people, whom the Lord destroyed before the children of Israel.
Men dei lydde ikkje. Manasse forførde deim, so dei stelte seg verre enn dei folki Herren hadde øydt ut for Israels-borni.
10 Therefore the Lord spake by his seruants the Prophets, saying,
Då tala Herren ved tenarane sine, profetarne, soleis:
11 Because that Manasseh King of Iudah hath done such abominations, and hath wrought more wickedly then al that the Amorites (which were before him) did, and hath made Iudah sinne also with his idoles,
«Av di Manasse, Juda-kongen, hev drive med desse avstyggjelege skikkarne, verre enn alt det amoritarne gjorde fyre hans tid, og forført med sine steingudar ogso Juda til å synda,
12 Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Beholde, I will bring an euill vpon Ierusalem and Iudah, that who so heareth of it, both his eares shall tingle.
so segjer Herren, Israels Gud: «Sjå, eg sendar ulukka yver Jerusalem og Juda, so det skal ringja for båe øyro på alle som høyrer det.
13 And I will stretch ouer Ierusalem the line of Samaria, and the plommet of the house of Ahab: and I will wipe Ierusalem, as a man wipeth a dish, which he wipeth, and turneth it vpside downe.
Eg spanar same mælesnori yver Jerusalem som yver Samaria, og nyttar same vegtloddet som yver Ahabs hus. Eg turkar burt Jerusalem, liksom ein turkar av eit fat og so snur det upp ned.
14 And I will forsake the remnant of mine inheritance, and deliuer them into the hande of their enemies, and they shalbe robbed and spoyled of all their aduersaries,
Eg støyter ifrå meg deim som er att av arvluten min, og gjev deim i fiendevald, so dei vert til ran og til herfang for alle sine fiendar.
15 Because they haue done euil in my sight, and haue prouoked mee to anger, since the time their fathers came out of Egypt vntill this day.
Og det av di dei hev gjort det som vondt er i mine augo, og jamt harma meg frå den dagen federne deira drog ut or Egyptarland og til den dag i dag.»»
16 Moreouer Manasseh shed innocent blood exceeding much, till hee replenished Ierusalem from corner to corner, beside his sinne wherwith he made Iudah to sinne, and to doe euill in the sight of the Lord.
Manasse let og skuldlaust blod renna, i so stor mengd at Jerusalem vart fyllt av det frå ende til annan, umfram den syndi at han forførde Juda til å gjera det som vondt var i Herrens augo.
17 Concerning the rest of the actes of Manasseh, and all that hee did, and his sinne that he sinned, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Iudah?
Det som elles er å fortelja um Manasse, um det han gjorde og um hans synd, det er uppskrive i krønikeboki åt Juda-kongarne.
18 And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, euen in the garden of Vzza: and Amon his sonne reigned in his steade.
Manasse lagde seg til kvile hjå federne sine, og vart gravlagd i slottshagen, i Uzzas hage. Og Amon, son hans, vart konge i staden hans.
19 Amon was two and twentie yere olde, when he began to reigne, and hee reygned two yeere in Ierusalem: his mothers name also was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Iotbah.
Tvo og tjuge år gamall var Amon då han vart konge; tvo år rådde han i Jerusalem. Mor hans heitte Mesullemet Harusdotter, frå Jotba.
20 And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, as his father Manasseh did.
Han gjorde det som vondt var i Herrens augo, liksom Manasse, far hans;
21 For hee walked in all the way that his father walked in, and serued the idoles that his father serued, and worshipped them.
han fylgde i alt fotefari til far sin, og tente steingudarne som far hans hadde tent, og bad til deim.
22 And he forsooke the Lord God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.
Han vende seg frå Herren, sin fedregud, og gjekk ikkje på Herrens veg.
23 And the seruantes of Amon conspired against him, and slewe the King in his owne house.
Amons hirdmenner samansvor seg og drap kongen i huset hans.
24 And the people of the land slewe all them that had conspired against King Amon, and the people made Iosiah his sonne King in his steade.
Landsfolket slo i hel deim som hadde samansvore seg saman mot Amon, og tok Josia, son hans, til konge i staden hans.
25 Concerning the rest of the actes of Amon, which he did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Iudah?
Det som elles er å fortelja um Amon, det han gjorde, det er uppskrive i krønikeboki åt Juda-kongarne.
26 And they buried him in his sepulchre in the garden of Vzza: and Iosiah his sonne reigned in his steade.
Han vart gravlagd i gravi i Uzzias hage. Josia, son hans, vart konge i staden hans.
