< 1 Kings 22 >

1 And they sit still three years; there is no war between Aram and Israel.
Og de sade stille tre Aar; der var ingen Krig imellem Syrerne og Israel.
2 And it comes to pass in the third year, that Jehoshaphat king of Judah comes down to the king of Israel,
Men det skete i det tredje Aar, da drog Josafat, Judas Konge, ned til Israels Konge.
3 and the king of Israel says to his servants, “Have you not known that Ramoth-Gilead [is] ours? And we are keeping silent from taking it out of the hand of the king of Aram!”
Og Israels Konge sagde til sine Tjenere: Vide I, at Ramoth i Gilead hører os til? og vi tie stille om at tage den tilbage af Syriens Konges Haand!
4 And he says to Jehoshaphat, “Do you go with me to battle [against] Ramoth-Gilead?” And Jehoshaphat says to the king of Israel, “As I am, so [are] you; as my people, so your people; as my horses, so your horses.”
Derefter sagde han til Josafat: Vil du drage med mig til Krig imod Ramoth i Gilead? og Josafat sagde til Israels Konge: Jeg vil være som du, mit Folk skal være som dit Folk, mine Heste som dine Heste.
5 And Jehoshaphat says to the king of Israel, “Please seek the word of YHWH today”;
Fremdeles sagde Josafat til Israels Konge: Kære, adspørg i Dag Herrens Ord!
6 and the king of Israel gathers the prophets, about four hundred men, and says to them, “Do I go to battle against Ramoth-Gilead, or do I refrain?” And they say, “Go up, and the Lord gives [it] into the hand of the king.”
Da samlede Israels Konge Profeterne, ved fire Hundrede Mænd, og sagde til dem: Skal jeg drage til Krig imod Ramoth i Gilead eller lade det være? og de sagde: Drag op, og Herren skal give den i Kongens Haand.
7 And Jehoshaphat says, “[Is there] not a prophet of YHWH still here that we may seek from him?”
Men Josafat sagde: Er her ikke endnu en Herrens Profet, at vi kunde spørge ham ad?
8 And the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat, “Yet one man [remains] to seek YHWH from him, and I have hated him, for he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil—Micaiah son of Imlah”; and Jehoshaphat says, “Do not let the king say so.”
Og Israels Konge sagde til Josafat: Her er endnu een Mand, ved hvem man kan adspørge Herren, men jeg hader ham, fordi han spaar ikke godt over mig, men ondt, det er Mika, Jimlas Søn; og Josafat sagde: Kongen sige ikke saa!
9 And the king of Israel calls to a certain eunuch and says, “Hurry along Micaiah son of Imlah.”
Da kaldte Israels Konge ad en af Kammertjenerne og sagde: Hent hurtigt Mika, Jimlas Søn!
10 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah are sitting, each on his throne, clothed with garments, in a threshing-floor, at the opening of the Gate of Samaria, and all the prophets are prophesying before them.
Og Israels Konge og Josafat, Judas Konge, sade hver paa sin Trone, iførte Kongedragt, paa en fri Plads ved Indgangen til Samarias Port, og alle Profeterne spaaede for deres Ansigt.
11 And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah makes horns of iron for himself and says, “Thus said YHWH: By these you push the Arameans until they are consumed”;
Og Zedekia, Knaanas Søn, havde gjort sig Jernhorn, og han sagde: Saaledes sagde Herren: Med disse skal du stange Syrerne, indtil de aldeles udryddes.
12 and all the prophets are prophesying so, saying, “Go up to Ramoth-Gilead, and prosper, and YHWH has given [it] into the hand of the king.”
Og alle Profeterne spaaede saaledes og sagde: Drag op imod Ramoth i Gilead og vær lykkelig, og Herren skal give den i Kongens Haand.
13 And the messenger who has gone to call Micaiah has spoken to him, saying, “Now behold, the words of the prophets, with one mouth, [are] good toward the king; please let your word be as the word of one of them—and you have spoken good.”
Og Budet, som var gaaet bort for at kalde paa Mika, talte til ham sigende: Kære, se, Profeternes Ord ere som af een Mund gunstige for Kongen; kære, lad dit Ord være ligesom Ordet af en af dem og tal gunstigt!
14 And Micaiah says, “YHWH lives; surely that which YHWH says to me—it I speak.”
Da sagde Mika: Saa vist som Herren lever, det som Herren siger mig, det vil jeg tale.
15 And he comes to the king, and the king says to him, “Micaiah, do we go to Ramoth-Gilead, to battle, or do we refrain?” And he says to him, “Go up, and prosper, and YHWH has given [it] into the hand of the king.”
Og han kom til Kongen, og Kongen sagde til ham: Mika! skulle vi drage imod Ramoth i Gilead til Krig eller lade være? Og han sagde til ham: Drag op og vær lykkelig, og Herren skal give den i Kongens Haand.
16 And the king says to him, “How many times am I adjuring you that you speak nothing to me but truth in the Name of YHWH?”
Og Kongen sagde til ham: Hvor mange Gange skal jeg besværge dig, at du intet siger mig uden Sandheden i Herrens Navn?
17 And he says, “I have seen all Israel scattered on the hills as sheep that have no shepherd, and YHWH says, These have no master; let them return—each to his house in peace.”
Da sagde han: Jeg saa al Israel adspredt paa Bjergene ligesom Faarene, der ingen Hyrde have; og Herren sagde: Disse have ingen Herre, lad dem vende tilbage hver til sit Hus med Fred!
18 And the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat, “Have I not said to you, He does not prophesy of me good, but evil?”
Da sagde Israels Konge til Josafat: Har jeg ikke sagt dig: Han spaar mig ikke godt, men ondt?
19 And he says, “Therefore, hear a word of YHWH! I have seen YHWH sitting on His throne, and all the host of the heavens standing by Him, on His right and on His left;
Og han sagde: Hør derfor Herrens Ord: Jeg saa Herren sidde paa sin Trone, og al Himmelens Hær staaende hos ham ved hans højre og ved hans venstre Side.
20 and YHWH says, Who entices Ahab, and he goes up and falls in Ramoth-Gilead? And this one says thus, and that one is saying thus.
Og Herren sagde: Hvo vil overtale Akab, at han skal drage op og falde ved Ramoth i Gilead? og den ene sagde saa, og den anden sagde saa.
21 And the spirit goes out and stands before YHWH, and says, I entice him; and YHWH says to him, By what?
Da gik en Aand ud og stod for Herrens Ansigt og sagde: Jeg vil overtale ham; og Herren sagde til ham: Hvormed?
22 And he says, I go out, and have been a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all his prophets; and He says, You entice, and also you are able; go out and do so.
Og han sagde: Jeg vil gaa ud og være en løgnagtig Aand i alle hans Profeters Mund; og han sagde: Du skal overtale ham, ja ogsaa formaa det; gak ud og gør saa!
23 And now, behold, YHWH has put a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all these prophets of yours, and YHWH has spoken calamity concerning you.”
Og nu, se, Herren har givet en løgnagtig Aand i alle disse dine Profeters Mund; men Herren har talt ondt over dig.
24 And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah draws near and strikes Micaiah on the cheek, and says, “Where [is] this [that] the spirit [from] YHWH has passed over from me to speak with you?”
Da gik Zedekia, Knaanas Søn, frem og slog Mika paa Kinden og sagde: Hvorledes? er Herrens Aand gaaet over fra mig for at tale med dig?
25 And Micaiah says, “Behold, you are seeing on that day when you go into the innermost chamber to be hidden.”
Og Mika sagde: Se, du skal se det paa den Dag, naar du gaar ind fra et Kammer til et andet for at skjule dig.
26 And the king of Israel says, “Take Micaiah, and turn him back to Amon head of the city, and to Joash son of the king,
Da sagde Israels Konge: Tag Mika og før ham tilbage til Amon, Stadens Befalingsmand, og til Joas, Kongens Søn.
27 and you have said, Thus said the king: Place this one in the house of restraint, and cause him to eat bread of oppression, and water of oppression, until my coming in peace.”
Og du skal sige: Saa siger Kongen: Sætter denne i Fængsels Hus og bespiser ham med Trængsels Brød og Trængsels Vand, indtil jeg kommer med Fred.
28 And Micaiah says, “If you return in peace at all, YHWH has not spoken by me”; and he says, “Hear, O peoples, all of them.”
Og Mika sagde: Dersom du kommer tilbage med Fred, da har Herren ikke talt ved mig; og han sagde: Hører, I Folk alle sammen!
29 And the king of Israel goes up—and Jehoshaphat king of Judah—to Ramoth-Gilead.
Saa drog Israels Konge og Josafat, Judas Konge, op imod Ramoth i Gilead.
30 And the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat to disguise himself, and to go into battle, “And you, put on your garments.” And the king of Israel disguises himself, and goes into battle.
Og Israels Konge sagde til Josafat: Jeg vil forklæde mig og saa gaa i Kampen, men tag du dine egne Klæder paa; og Israels Konge forklædte sig og gik i Slaget.
31 And the king of Aram commanded the thirty-two heads of the charioteers whom he has, saying, “You do not fight with small or with great, but with the king of Israel by himself.”
Men Kongen af Syrien bød sine to og tredive øverste for Vognene og sagde: I skulle ikke stride imod liden eller stor, uden imod Israels Konge alene.
32 And it comes to pass, at the heads of the charioteers seeing Jehoshaphat, that they said, “He [is] surely the king of Israel!” And they turn aside to him to fight, and Jehoshaphat cries out,
Og det skete, der de øverste for Vognene saa Josafat, da sagde de: Han er visselig Israels Konge, og de bøjede af for at stride imod ham. Da raabte Josafat.
33 and it comes to pass, at the heads of the charioteers seeing that he [is] not the king of Israel, that they turn back from after him.
Og det skete, der de øverste for Vognene saa, at han ikke var Israels Konge, da vendte de tilbage fra ham.
34 And a man has drawn with a bow in his simplicity, and strikes the king of Israel between the joinings and the coat of mail, and he says to his charioteer, “Turn your hand, and take me out from the camp, for I have become sick.”
Og en Mand spændte Buen paa Lykke og Fromme og skød Israels Konge mellem Remmene og Panseret; da sagde denne til sin Køresvend: Vend din Haand om og før mig ud af Hæren; thi jeg er saaret.
35 And the battle increases on that day, and the king has been caused to stand in the chariot, in front of Aram, and he dies in the evening, and the blood of the wound runs out to the midst of the chariot,
Og Kampen tog til paa den samme Dag, og Kongen blev holdt staaende i Vognen over for Syrerne, og han døde om Aftenen, og Blodet flød af Saaret midt i Vognen.
36 and he causes the cry to pass over through the camp, at the going in of the sun, saying, “Each to his city, and each to his land!”
Og man udraabte igennem Lejren, der Solen gik ned, og sagde: Hver gaa til sin Stad og hver til sit Land!
37 And the king dies, and comes into Samaria, and they bury the king in Samaria;
Saa døde Kongen og blev ført til Samaria, og de begrove Kongen i Samaria.
38 and [one] rinses the chariot by the pool of Samaria, and the dogs lick his blood when they had washed the armor, according to the word of YHWH that He spoke.
Og man skyllede Vognen ved Samarias Dam; og Hundene slikkede hans Blod, hvor Skøgerne badede sig, efter Herrens Ord, som han havde talt.
39 And the rest of the matters of Ahab, and all that he did, and the house of ivory that he built, and all the cities that he built, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Men det øvrige af Akabs Handeler, og alt det han gjorde, og om det Elfenbens Hus, som han byggede, og om alle Stæderne, som han byggede, er det ikke skrevet i Israels Kongers Krønikers Bog?
40 And Ahab lies with his fathers, and his son Ahaziah reigns in his stead.
Og Akab laa med sine Fædre, og Ahasia, hans Søn, blev Konge i hans Sted.
41 And Jehoshaphat son of Asa has reigned over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel,
Og Josafat, Asas Søn, blev Konge over Juda i Akabs, Israels Konges, fjerde Aar.
42 Jehoshaphat [is] a son of thirty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Azubah daughter of Shilhi.
Josafat var fem og tredive Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede fem og tyve Aar i Jerusalem, og hans Moders Navn var Asuba, Silhis Datter.
43 And he walks in all the way of his father Asa, he has not turned aside from it, to do that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH; only, the high places have not been removed—the people are still sacrificing and making incense in high places.
Og han vandrede i alle sin Fader Asas Veje og veg ikke derfra, men gjorde det, som var ret for Herrens Øjne.
44 And Jehoshaphat makes peace with the king of Israel;
Dog bleve Højene ikke borttagne; Folket ofrede endnu og gjorde Røgelse paa Højene.
45 and the rest of the matters of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he exercised, and with which he fought, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Og Josafat holdt Fred med Israels Konge.
46 And the remnant of the whoremongers who were left in the days of his father Asa he took away out of the land;
Men det øvrige af Josafats Handeler og hans Magt, hvilken han skaffede sig, og hvorledes han har stridt, er det ikke skrevet i Judas Kongers Krønikers Bog?
47 and there is no king in Edom; he set up a king.
Og de øvrige af Skørlevnerne, som vare blevne tilbage fra Asas, hans Faders, Dage, borttog han af Landet.
48 Jehoshaphat made ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, and they did not go, for the ships were broken in Ezion-Geber.
Og der var ingen Konge i Edom; men en Befalingsmand var Konge.
49 Then Ahaziah son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “Let my servants go with your servants in the ships”; and Jehoshaphat was not willing.
Og Josafat havde ti Tharsisskibe, som skulde drage til Ofir efter Guld; men de droge ikke derhen, thi Skibene bleve sønderslagne i Ezion-Geber.
50 And Jehoshaphat lies with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of his father David, and his son Jehoram reigns in his stead.
Da sagde Ahasia, Akabs Søn, til Josafat: Lad mine Tjenere fare med dine Tjenere paa Skibene; men Josafat vilde ikke.
51 Ahaziah son of Ahab has reigned over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigns over Israel two years,
Og Josafat laa med sine Fædre og blev begraven med sine Fædre i Davids, sin Faders, Stad; og Joram, hans Søn, blev Konge i hans Sted.
52 and does evil in the eyes of YHWH, and walks in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat who caused Israel to sin,
Ahasia, Akabs Søn, blev Konge over Israel i Samaria udi Josafats, Judas Konges, syttende Aar og var Konge over Israel to Aar.
53 and serves the Ba‘al, and bows himself to it, and provokes YHWH, God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
Og han gjorde det, som ondt var for Herrens Øjne, og vandrede i sin Faders Vej og i sin Moders Vej og i Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, Vej, hans, som kom Israel tir at synde. Og han tjente Baal og tilbad ham og opirrede Herren, Israels Gud, alt ligesom hans Fader gjorde.
