1 Kings 14
1 At that time Abijah son of Jeroboam was sick,
Ved den Tid blev Jeroboams Søn Abija syg.
2 and Jeroboam says to his wife, “Now rise and change yourself, and they do not know that you [are the] wife of Jeroboam, and you have gone to Shiloh; behold, Ahijah the prophet [is] there; he spoke to me of [being] king over this people;
Da sagde Jeroboam til sin Hustru: "Tag og forklæd dig, så man ikke kan kende, at du er Jeroboams Hustru, og begiv dig til Silo, thi der bor Profeten Ahija, som kundgjorde mig, at jeg skulde blive Konge over dette Folk;
3 and you have taken in your hand ten loaves, and crumbs, and a bottle of honey, and have gone to him; he declares to you what becomes of the youth.”
tag ti Brød, noget Bagværk og en Krukke Honning med og henvend dig til ham, så vil han sige dig, hvorledes det skal gå Drengen!"
4 And the wife of Jeroboam does so, and rises, and goes to Shiloh, and enters the house of Ahijah, and Ahijah is not able to see, for his eyes have stood because of his age.
Jeroboams Hustru gjorde nu således; hun begav sig til Silo og gik ind i Ahijas Hus. Ahija kunde ikke se, da hans Øjne var sløve af Alderdom;
5 And YHWH said to Ahijah, “Behold, the wife of Jeroboam is coming to seek a word from you concerning her son, for he is sick; thus and thus you speak to her, and it comes to pass at her coming in, that she is making herself strange.”
men HERREN havde sagt til Ahija: "Se, Jeroboams Hustru kommer til dig for at høre sig for hos dig angående sin Søn, da han er syg; det og det skal du svare hende; men når hun kommer, er hun forklædt."
6 And it comes to pass, at Ahijah’s hearing the sound of her feet [as] she came to the opening, that he says, “Come in, wife of Jeroboam, why is this [that] you are making yourself strange? And I am sent to you [with] a sharp thing.
Da nu Ahija hørte Lyden af hendes Trin, som hun gik ind ad Døren, sagde han: "Kom kun ind, Jeroboams Hustru! Hvorfor er du forklædt? Mig er det pålagt at bringe dig en tung Tidende.
7 Go, say to Jeroboam, Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Because that I have made you high out of the midst of the people, and appoint you leader over my people Israel,
Gå hen og sig til Jeroboam: Så siger HERREN, Israels Gud: Jeg ophøjede dig af Folkets Midte og gjorde dig til Fyrste over mit Folk Israel
8 and tear the kingdom from the house of David, and give it to you—and you have not been as My servant David who kept My commands, and who walked after Me with all his heart, to only do that which [is] right in My eyes,
og rev Riget fra Davids Hus og gav dig det; dog har du ikke været som min Tjener David, der holdt mine Bud og fulgte mig af hele sit Hjerte og kun gjorde, hvad der er ret i mine Øjne,
9 and you do evil above all who have been before you, and go, and make other gods and molten images for yourself to provoke Me to anger, and you have cast Me behind your back—
men du har handlet værre end alle dine Forgængere; du gik hen og krænkede mig og gjorde dig andre Guder og støbte Billeder, men mig kastede du bag din Ryg;
10 therefore, behold, I am bringing calamity to the house of Jeroboam, and have cut off to Jeroboam those sitting on the wall—shut up and left—in Israel, and have put away the posterity of the house of Jeroboam, as one puts away the dung until its consumption;
se, derfor vil jeg bringe Ulykke over Jeroboams Hus og udrydde hvert mandligt Væsen, hver og en af Jeroboams Slægt i Israel, og jeg vil feje Jeroboams Hus bort, som man fejer Skarn bort, til der ikke er Spor tilbage!
11 the dogs eat him who dies of Jeroboam in a city, and birds of the heavens eat him who dies in a field, for YHWH has spoken.
Den af Jeroboams Slægt, som dør i Byen, skal Hundene æde, og den, som dør på Marken, skal Himmelens Fugle æde, thi det er HERREN, der har talet!
12 And you, rise, go to your house; in the going in of your feet to the city, the boy has died;
Men gå nu hjem! Når din Fod betræder Byen, skal Barnet dø;
13 and all Israel has mourned for him, and buried him, for this one—by himself—of Jeroboam comes to a grave, because there has been found in him a good thing toward YHWH, God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam.
og hele Israel skal holde Dødeklage over ham og jorde ham, thi han er den eneste af Jeroboams Slægt, der skal komme i en Grav; thi hos ham fandtes dog noget, der vandt HERREN Israels Guds Behag inden for Jeroboams Slægt.
14 And YHWH has raised up for Himself a king over Israel who cuts off the house of Jeroboam this day—and what? Even now!
Men HERREN vil oprejse sig en Konge over Israel, der skal udrydde Jeroboams Hus på den Dag.
15 And YHWH has struck Israel as the reed is moved by the waters, and has plucked Israel from off this good ground that He gave to their fathers, and scattered them beyond the River, because that they made their Asherim, provoking YHWH to anger;
Men også siden vil HERREN slå Israel, så at de svajer hid og did som Sivet i Vandet, og rykke Israel op fra dette herlige Land, som han gav deres Fædre, og sprede dem hinsides Floden, fordi de har lavet sig Asjerastøtter og krænket HERREN;
16 and He gives up Israel because of the sins of Jeroboam that he sinned, and that he caused Israel to sin.”
og han vil give Israel til Pris for de Synders Skyld, Jeroboam har begået og forledt Israel til."
17 And the wife of Jeroboam rises, and goes, and comes to Tirzah; she has come to the threshold of the house, and the youth dies;
Da gav Jeroboams Hustru sig på Vej og kom til Tirza; og da hun betrådte Husets Tærskel, døde Drengen;
18 and they bury him, and all Israel mourns for him, according to the word of YHWH that he spoke by the hand of His servant Ahijah the prophet.
og man jordede ham, og hele Israel holdt Dødeklage over ham efter det Ord, HERREN havde talet ved sin Tjener, Profeten Ahija.
19 And the rest of the matters of Jeroboam, how he fought, and how he reigned, behold, they are written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Jeroboam, hvorledes han førte Krig, og hvorledes han herskede står jo optegnet i Israels kongers Krønike.
20 And the days that Jeroboam reigned [are] twenty-two years, and he lies with his fathers, and his son Nadab reigns in his stead.
Jeroboams Regeringstid udgjorde to og tyve År. Så lagde han sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre, og hans Søn Nadab blev Konge i hans Sted.
21 And Rehoboam son of Solomon has reigned in Judah; Rehoboam [is] a son of forty-one years in his reigning, and he has reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that YHWH chose to set His Name there, out of all the tribes of Israel, and the name of his mother [is] Naamah the Ammonitess.
Rehabeam, Salomos Søn, blev Kongei Juda. Rehabeam var een og fyrretyve År gammel, da han blev Konge, og han herskede sytten År i Jerusalem, den By, HERREN havde udvalgt af alle Israels Stammer for der at stedfæste sit Navn. Hans Moder var en ammonitisk Kvinde ved Navn Na'ama.
22 And Judah does evil in the eyes of YHWH, and they make Him zealous above all that their fathers did by their sins that they have sinned.
Og Juda gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, og med de Synder, de begik, vakte de hans Nidkærhed, mere end deres Fædre havde gjort.
23 And they build—they also—for themselves high places, and standing-pillars, and Asherim, on every high height, and under every green tree;
Også de byggede sig Offerhøje, Stenstøtter og Asjerastøtter på alle høje Steder og under alle grønne Træer;
24 and a whoremonger has also been in the land; they have done according to all the abominations of the nations that YHWH dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel.
ja, der var endog Mandsskøger i Landet. De øvede alle de Vederstyggeligheder, som var begået af de Folk, HERREN havde drevet bort foran Israeliterne.
25 And it comes to pass, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt has gone up against Jerusalem,
Men i Kong Rebabeams femte Regeringsår drog Ægypterkongen Sjisjak op imod Jerusalem
26 and he takes the treasures of the house of YHWH, and the treasures of the house of the king, indeed, he has taken the whole; and he takes all the shields of gold that Solomon made.
og tog Skattene i HERRENs Hus og i Kongens Palads; alt tog han, også de Guldskjolde, Salomo havde ladet lave.
27 And King Rehoboam makes shields of bronze in their stead, and has made [them] a charge on the hand of the heads of the runners, those keeping the opening of the house of the king,
Kong Rehabeam lod da i Stedet lave Kobberskjolde og gav dem i Forvaring hos Høvedsmændene for Livvagten, der holdt Vagt ved Indgangen til Kongens Palads;
28 and it comes to pass, from the going in of the king to the house of YHWH, the runners carry them, and have brought them back to the chamber of the runners.
og hver Gang Kongen begav sig til HERRENs Hus, bentede Livvagten dem, og bagefter bragte de dem tilbage til Vagtstuen.
29 And the rest of the matters of Rehoboam and all that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Rehabeam, alt, hvad han gjorde, står jo optegnet i Judas Kongers Krønike.
30 And there has been war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam [for] all the days;
Rehabeam og Jeroboam lå i Krig med hinanden hele Tiden.
31 and Rehoboam lies with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the City of David, and the name of his mother [is] Naamah the Ammonitess, and his son Abijam reigns in his stead.
Så lagde Rehabeam sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre og blev jordet hos sine Fædre i Davidsbyen. Hans Moder var en ammonitisk Kvinde ved Navn Na'ama. Og hans Søn Abija blev Konge i hans Sted.
