2 Kings 13
1 In the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah king of Judah Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned seventeen years.
Idet tre og tyvende Joas's, Ahasias Søns, Judas Konges, Aar blev Joahas, Jehus Søn, Konge over Israel i Samaria i sytten Aar.
2 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not from it.
Og han gjorde det onde for Herrens Øjne og vandrede efter Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Synder, med hvilke han kom Israel til at synde, han veg ikke derfra.
3 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, all their days.
Derfor optændtes Herrens Vrede over Israel, og han gav dem i Hasaels, Syriens Konges, Haand og i Benhadads, Hasaels Søns, Haand alle Dage.
4 And Jehoahaz besought the LORD, and the LORD hearkened unto him: for he saw the oppression of Israel, because the king of Syria oppressed them.
Men Joahas bad ydmygeligt til Herren, og Herren hørte ham; thi han saa til Israels Trængsel, thi Kongen af Syrien trængte dem.
5 (And the LORD gave Israel a saviour, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians: and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents, as in time past.
Og Herren gav Israel en Frelser, og de slap fri for at være under Syrernes Magt; og Israels Børn boede i deres Telte som tilforn.
6 Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel sin, but walked therein: and there remained the grove also in Samaria.)
Dog vege de ikke fra Jeroboams Hus's Synder, som han kom Israel til at synde med, men man vandrede derudi, og Astartebilledet blev ogsaa staaende i Samaria.
7 Neither did he leave of the people to Jehoahaz but fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria had destroyed them, and had made them like the dust by threshing.
Men Joahas beholdt ikke flere Folk tilovers end halvtredsindstyve Ryttere og ti Vogne og ti Tusinde Fodfolk; thi Kongen af Syrien havde ødelagt dem og gjort dem til Støv at træde paa.
8 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Men det øvrige af Joahas's Handeler og alt, hvad han gjorde, og hans Vælde, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Israels Kongers Krønikers Bog?
9 And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son reigned in his position.
Og Joahas laa med sine Fædre, og de begravede ham i Samaria, og hans Søn, Joas blev Konge i hans Sted.
10 In the thirty and seventh year of Joash king of Judah began Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned sixteen years.
I det syv og tredivte Joas's, Judas Konges, Aar blev Joas, Joahas's Søn, Konge over Israel i Samaria i seksten Aar.
11 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin: but he walked therein.
Og han gjorde det, som var ondt for Herrens Øjne; han veg ikke fra nogen af Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Synder, som han kom Israel til at synde med, men han vandrede deri.
12 And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might wherewith he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Men det øvrige af Joas's Handeler og alt, hvad han gjorde og hans Vælde, hvorledes han stred med Amazia, Judas Konge, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Israels Kongers Krønikers Bog?
13 And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat upon his throne: and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
Og Joas laa med sine Fædre, og Jeroboam sad paa hans Trone; og Joas blev begraven i Samaria hos Israels Konger.
14 Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof.
Og Elisa blev syg af sin Sygdom, af hvilken han døde; og Joas, Israels Konge, kom ned til ham og græd for hans Ansigt og sagde: Min Fader, min Fader! Israels Vogne og hans Ryttere!
15 And Elisha said unto him, Take bow and arrows. And he took unto him bow and arrows.
Da sagde Elisa til ham: Tag Bue og Pile; og han tog Bue og Pile til ham.
16 And he said to the king of Israel, Put your hand upon the bow. And he put his hand upon it: and Elisha put his hands upon the king's hands.
Da sagde han til Israels Konge: Læg din Haand paa Buen; og han lagde sin Haand paa den, og Elisa lagde sine Hænder paa Kongens Hænder.
17 And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. Then Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he said, The arrow of the LORD's deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance from Syria: for you shall strike the Syrians in Aphek, till you have consumed them.
Og han sagde: Luk det Vindue op imod Østen! og han lukkede det op; og Elisa sagde: Skyd! og han skød. Og han sagde: En Frelses Pil fra Herren og en Frelses Pil imod Syrerne, og du skal slaa Syrerne i Afek, indtil du gør Ende paa dem.
18 And he said, Take the arrows. And he took them. And he said unto the king of Israel, Strike upon the ground. And he stroke three times, and stayed.
Og han sagde: Tag Pilene; og han tog dem; og han sagde til Kongen af Israel: Slaa imod Jorden; og han slog tre Gange, og saa holdt han op.
19 And the man of God was angry with him, and said, You should have smitten five or six times; then had you smitten Syria till you had consumed it: whereas now you shall strike Syria but three times.
Da blev den Guds Mand vred paa ham og sagde: Havde du slaget fem eller seks Gange, da skulde du have slaget Syrerne, indtil du havde gjort Ende paa dem; men nu skal du slaa Syrerne tre Gange.
20 And Elisha died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
Og Elisa døde, og de begravede ham; og Moabs Tropper kom i Landet først paa Aaret.
21 And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the tomb of Elisha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
Og det skete, at de begravede en Mand, og se, da de saa Troppen, da kastede de Manden i Elisas Grav; og der Manden kom ned og rørte ved Elisas Ben, da blev han levende og stod op paa sine Fødder.
22 But Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
Og Hasael, Kongen af Syrien, havde trængt Israel alle Joahas's Dage.
23 And the LORD was gracious unto them, and had compassion on them, and had respect unto them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence as yet.
Men Herren var dem naadig og forbarmede sig over dem og vendte sig til dem for sin Pagts Skyld med Abraham, Isak og Jakob og vilde ikke ødelægge dem og bortkastede dem endnu ikke fra sit Ansigt.
24 So Hazael king of Syria died; and Benhadad his son reigned in his position.
Og Hasael, Kongen af Syrien, døde, og hans Søn Benhadad blev Konge i hans Sted.
25 And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities, which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times did Joash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel.
Og Joas, Joahas's Søn, tog de Stæder igen fra Benhadads, Hasaels Søns, Haand, som han havde taget fra Joahas's, hans Faders, Haand i Krigen; tre Gange slog Joas ham og fik Israels Stæder igen.
