1 Kings 15
1 Now in the eighteenth year of king Jerobo'am the son of Nebat became Abiyam king over Judah.
I kong Jeroboams, Nebats sønns attende år blev Abiam konge over Juda.
2 Three years he reigned in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Ma'achah, the daughter of Abishalom.
Han regjerte tre år i Jerusalem. Hans mor hette Ma'aka; hun var datter til Abisalom.
3 And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him; and his heart was not entire with the Lord his God, like the heart of David his father.
Han vandret i alle de synder som hans far hadde gjort før ham, og hans hjerte var ikke helt med Herren hans Gud, som hans far Davids hjerte hadde vært;
4 Nevertheless for the sake of David did the Lord his God give him a rule in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to allow Jerusalem to exist.
men for Davids skyld lot Herren hans Gud en lampe brenne for ham i Jerusalem, idet han opreiste hans sønn efter ham og lot Jerusalem bli stående,
5 Because David did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, and turned not aside from all that he had commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriyah the Hittite.
fordi David gjorde hvad rett var i Herrens øine, og i hele sitt liv ikke vek av fra noget av det han hadde befalt ham, undtagen det som hendte med hetitten Uria.
6 And there had been war between Rehobo'am and Jerobo'am all the days of his life.
Mellem Rehabeam og Jeroboam var det krig så lenge han levde.
7 And the rest of the acts of Abiyam, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah. And there was [also] war between Abiyam and Jerobo'am.
Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Abiam og om alt det han gjorde, er opskrevet i Judas kongers krønike. Mellem Abiam og Jeroboam var det også krig.
8 And Abiyam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David: and Assa his son became king in his stead.
Og Abiam la sig til hvile hos sine fedre, og de begravde ham i Davids stad; og hans sønn Asa blev konge i hans sted.
9 And in the twentieth year of Jerobo'am the king of Israel became Assa king over Judah.
I Jeroboams, Israels konges tyvende år blev Asa konge over Juda.
10 And forty and one years did he reign in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Ma'achah, the daughter of Abishalom.
Han regjerte en og firti år i Jerusalem. Hans mor hette Ma'aka; hun var datter til Abisalom.
11 And Assa did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, like David his father.
Asa gjorde hvad rett var i Herrens øine, likesom hans far David hadde gjort.
12 And he put away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols which his fathers had made.
Han drev tempel-bolerne ut av landet og fikk bort alle de motbydelige avguder som hans fedre hadde gjort.
13 And also Ma'achah his mother, even her he removed from being queen; because she had made a scandalous image for the grove; and Assa cut down her scandalous image, and burnt it by the brook Kidron.
Han avsatte endog sin mor Ma'aka fra hennes verdighet, fordi hun hadde gjort et gruelig avgudsbillede for Astarte; Asa hugg hennes gruelige avgudsbillede ned og brente det i Kidrons dal.
14 But the high-places were not removed; nevertheless Assa's heart was entire with the Lord all his days.
Men offerhaugene blev ikke nedlagt; dog var Asas hjerte helt med Herren så lenge han levde.
15 And he brought the things which his father had sanctified, and his own sanctified things, into the house of the Lord, silver, and gold, and vessels.
Han lot de ting hans far hadde helliget, og dem han selv hadde helliget, føre inn i Herrens hus, både sølv og gull og andre ting.
16 And there was war between Assa and Ba'sha the king of Israel all their days.
Mellem Asa og Baesa, Israels konge, var det krig så lenge de levde.
17 And Ba'sha the king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, in order not to suffer any one to go out or come in to Assa the king of Judah.
Baesa, Israels konge, drog op mot Juda og bygget festningsverker i Rama for å hindre enhver fra å dra fra eller til Asa, Judas konge.
18 Then did Assa take all the silver and the gold that were left in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king's house, and gave them into the hand of his servants; and king Assa sent them to Ben-hadad, the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Chesyon, the king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying,
Da tok Asa alt det sølv og gull som var tilbake i skattkammerne i Herrens hus, og likeså skattene i kongens hus og overgav dem til sine tjenere; så sendte kong Asa dem til Benhadad, kongen i Syria, som bodde i Damaskus og var sønn til Tabrimmon, Hesjons sønn, med de ord:
19 A covenant is between me and thee, [as] between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent unto thee a present of silver and gold; go and do break thy covenant with Ba'sha the king of Israel, that he may withdraw from me.
Mellem mig og dig er det jo et forbund, som det var mellem min far og din far. Her sender jeg dig en gave av sølv og gull; bryt nu ditt forbund med Baesa, Israels konge, så han må dra bort fra mig!
20 And Ben-hadad hearkened unto king Assa, and sent the captains of the armies which he had against the cities of Israel, and smote 'Iyon, and Dan, and Abel-beth-ma'achah, and the whole of Kinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
Benhadad lød kong Asa og sendte sine hærførere mot Israels byer og inntok Ijon og Dan og Abel-Bet-Ma'aka og hele Kinneret med hele Naftalis land.
21 And it came to pass, when Ba'sha heard this, that he left off the building of Ramah, and remained in Tirzah.
Da Baesa hørte det, holdt han op med å bygge festningsverker i Rama og gav sig til i Tirsa.
22 Then king Assa called together by proclamation all Judah, none being exempted: and they took away the stones of Ramah, and its timber, wherewith Ba'sha had built; and king Assa built with them Geba' of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
Men kong Asa opbød hele Juda - ingen var fritatt - og de førte bort stenene og tømmeret som Baesa hadde brukt til festningsarbeidet i Rama; med det bygget kong Asa festningsverker i Geba i Benjamin og i Mispa.
23 And the rest of all the acts of Assa, and all his mighty deeds, and all that he did, and the cities which he built, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah. Nevertheless in the time of his old age he became diseased in his feet.
Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Asa, om alle hans store gjerninger og alt det han gjorde, og om de byer han bygget, det er opskrevet i Judas kongers krønike. Men i sin alderdom fikk han en sykdom i føttene.
24 And Assa slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Jehoshaphat his son became king in his stead.
Og Asa la sig til hvile hos sine fedre og blev begravet hos sine fedre i sin far Davids stad, og hans sønn Josafat blev konge i hans sted.
25 And Nadab the son of Jerobo'am became king over Israel in the second year of Assa the king of Judah; and he reigned over Israel two years.
Nadab, Jeroboams sønn, blev konge over Israel i Asas, Judas konges annet år, og han regjerte over Israel i to år.
26 And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and he walked in the way of his father, and in his sin wherewith he had induced Israel to sin.
Han gjorde hvad ondt var i Herrens øine, og vandret på sin fars vei og i hans synd, den som han hadde fått Israel til å gjøre.
27 And Ba'sha the son of Achiyah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and Ba'sha smote him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines: while Nadab and all Israel were besieging Gibbethon.
Men Baesa, Akias sønn, av Issakars hus, fikk i stand en sammensvergelse mot ham; og Baesa slo ham ihjel ved Gibbeton, som tilhørte filistrene, mens Nadab og hele Israel holdt Gibbeton kringsatt.
28 And Ba'sha slew him in the third year of Assa the king of Judah, and became king in his stead.
Baesa drepte ham i Asas, Judas konges tredje år og blev så konge i hans sted.
29 And it came to pass, when he reigned, that he smote all the house of Jerobo'am; he left not any that breathed unto Jerobo'am, until he had destroyed him, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by his servant Achiyah the Shilonite;
Og da han var blitt konge, slo han hele Jeroboams hus ihjel; han lot ikke en levende sjel bli tilbake av Jeroboams hus, men utryddet det efter det ord som Herren hadde talt ved sin tjener Akia fra Silo;
30 Because of the sins of Jerobo'am which he had sinned, and through which he had induced Israel to sin, by his provoking wherewith he provoked the Lord the God of Israel to anger.
dette skjedde for de synders skyld som Jeroboam hadde gjort, og som han hadde fått Israel til å gjøre, og fordi han hadde vakt Herrens, Israels Guds harme.
31 And the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Nadab og om alt det han gjorde, er opskrevet i Israels kongers krønike.
32 And there was war between Assa and Ba'sha the king of Israel all their days.
Mellem Asa og Israels konge Baesa var det krig så lenge de levde.
33 In the third year of Assa the king of Judah became Ba'sha the son of Achiyah king over all Israel, in Thirzah, [for] twenty and four years.
I Asas, Judas konges tredje år blev Baesa, Akias sønn, konge over hele Israel i Tirsa, og han var konge i fire og tyve år.
34 And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and walked in the way of Jerobo'am, and in his sin wherewith he had induced Israel to sin.
Han gjorde hvad ondt var i Herrens øine, og vandret på Jeroboams vei og i hans synd, den som han hadde fått Israel til å gjøre.
