< 2 Kings 9 >

1 Now, Elisha the prophet, called one of the sons of the prophets, —and said to him—Gird up thy loins, and take this flask of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth-gilead;
Profeten Elisa kaldte en af Profetsønnerne til sig og sagde til ham: "Omgjord dine Lænder, tag denne Flaske Olie med og drag til Ramot i Gilead.
2 and, when thou art come in thither, then look thee out, there, Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi; and thou shalt enter and get him to rise up out of the midst of his brethren, and take him into an inner chamber;
Når du kommer derhen, opsøg så Jehu, Nimsjis Søn Josjafats Søn; gå hen og få ham til at stå op fra sine Fæller og før ham ind i det inderste Hammer;
3 then shalt thou take the flask of oil, and pour out upon his head, and say—Thus, saith Yahweh, I have anointed thee to be king unto Israel! Then shalt thou open the door and flee, and not tarry.
tag så Olieflasken og gyd Olien ud over hans Hoved med de Ord: Så siger HERREN: Jeg salver dig til Konge over Israel! Derefter skal du lukke Døren op og flygte ufortøvet!"
4 So the young man went his way—the young man the prophet—unto Ramoth-gilead.
Den unge Mand, Profetens Tjener, drog så til Ramot i Gilead;
5 And, when he came up, lo! the captains of the force, sitting, and he said—A word, have I, for thee, O captain! And Jehu said—For which, of us all? And he said, —For thee, O captain!
og da han kom derhen, traf han Hærførerne siddende sammen. Han sagde da: "Jeg har et Ærinde til dig, Hærfører!" Jehu spurgte: "Til hvem af os?" Han svarede: "Til dig, Hærfører!"
6 Then rose he up and went inside, and poured out the oil upon his head, and said unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, I have anointed thee to be king unto the people of Yahweh, unto Israel;
Så rejste han sig og gik ind i Huset; der gød han Olien ud over hans Hoved og sagde til ham: "Så siger HERREN, Israels Gud: Jeg salver dig til Konge over HERRENs Folk, over Israel!
7 and thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy lord, —so will I avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of Yahweh, at the hand of Jezebel;
Du skal hugge din Herre Akabs Hus ned, så jeg får Hævn over Jesabel for mine Tjenere Profeternes og alle HERRENsjeneres Blod.
8 so shall perish all the house of Ahab, —and I will cut off to Ahab the meanest, both him that is shut up and him that is left at large, in Israel.
Hele Akabs Hus skal omkomme, jeg vil udrydde hvert mandligt Væsen, hver og en af Akabs Slægt i Israel;
9 Yea I will deliver up the house of Ahab, like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat, —and like the house of Baasha son of Ahijah:
jeg vil handle med Akabs Hus som med Jeroboams, Nebats Søns, og Ba'sjas, Ahijas Søns, Hus.
10 And, as for Jezebel, the dogs shall eat [her], in the town-land of Jezreel, there being none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.
Og Jesabel skal Hundene æde på Jizre'els Mark, og ingen skal jorde hende!" Derpå lukkede han Døren op og flygtede.
11 Then, Jehu, came forth unto the servants of his lord, and one said to him—Is all well? why came this madman unto thee? And he said unto them, Ye, know, the man and his message.
Da Jebu kom ud til sin Herres Folk, spurgte de ham: "Hvorledes står det til? Hvad vilde den gale Mand hos dig?" Han svarede: "I kender jo den Mand og hans Snak!"
12 And they said—False! pray tell, us. And he said, —Thus and thus, spake he unto me, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh, I have anointed thee to be king unto Israel.
Men de sagde: "Udflugter! Sig os det nu!" Da sagde han: "Således sagde han til mig: Så siger HERREN: Jeg salver dig til Konge over Israel!"
13 Then hasted they, and took, every man his garment, and put it under him, upon the very steps, —and blew with a horn, and said, Jehu, is king!
Øjeblikkelig tog de da hver sin Kappe og lagde under ham på selve Trappen, og de stødte i Hornet og udråbte Jehu til Konge.
14 Thus did Jehu son of Jehoshaphat son of Nimshi conspire against Joram, —when, Joram, was watching Ramoth-gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria.
Således stiftede Jehu, Nimsjis Søn Josjafats Søn, en Sammensværgelse mod Joram. Joram havde med hele Israel forsvaret Ramot i Gilead mod Kong Hazael af Aram;
15 But Jehoram the king had returned to get himself healed in Jezreel, of the wounds wherewith the Syrians had wounded him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. Then said Jehu—If such is your mind, let no fugitive get forth out of the city, to go and tell it in Jezreel.
men Kong Joram var vendt tilbage for i Jizre'el at søge Helbredelse for de Sår, Aramæerne havde tilføjet ham, da han kæmpede med Kong Hazael af Aram. Da sagde Jehu: "Vil I som jeg, så lad ikke en eneste slippe ud af Byen og bringe Bud til Jizre'el."
16 So Jehu rode in a chariot, and went towards Jezreel, for, Joram, was lying there, —and, Ahaziah king of Judah, had come down to see Joram.
Derpå steg Jehu til Vogns og kørte til Jizre'el; thi der lå Joram syg, og Kong Ahazja af Juda var rejst ned for at se til ham.
17 Now, the watchman, was standing upon the tower, in Jezreel, so he saw the great company of Jehu, when he came, and said—A great company, can I see! Then said Jehoram—Take a horseman and send to meet them, that he may say—Is it peace?
Da Vægteren, som stod på Tårnet i Jizre'el, så Støvskyen efter Jehu, sagde han: "Jeg ser en Støvsky!" Da sagde Joram: "Tag en Rytter og send ham ud imod dem, for at han kan spørge, om de kommer med Fred!"
18 So the horseman went to meet him, and said—Thus, saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said—What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told, saying, The messenger came up to them, but hath not turned back.
Så red Rytteren ham i Møde og sagde: "Således siger Kongen: Kommer du med Fred?" Jehu svarede: "Hvad vedkommer det dig, om det er med Fred? Omkring, følg mig!" Vægteren meldte: "Sendebudet har nået dem, men han kommer ikke tilbage!"
19 Then sent he a second horseman, and he came up to them and said, Thus, saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said—What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.
Så sendte han en anden Rytter ud; og da han var kommet hen til dem, sagde han: "Således siger Kongen: Kommer du med Fred?" Jehu svarede: "Hvad vedkommer det dig, om jeg kommer med Fred? Omkring, følg mig!"
20 And the watchman told, saying, He came up to them, but hath not turned back, —and, the driving, is like the driving of Jehu son of Nimshi; for, with mad haste, doth he drive.
Vægteren tneldte: "Han har nået dem, men han kommet ikke tilbage. Og de har en Fart på, som var det Jebu, Nimsjis Søn, thi han farer af Sted som rasende."
21 Then said Jehoram, Harness! So one harnessed his chariot, —and Jehoram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went forth, each man in his chariot, yea they went forth to meet Jehu, and came upon him in the heritage of Naboth the Jezreelite.
Da sagde Joram: "Spænd for!" Og da der var spændt for, kørte Kong Joram af Israel og Kong Ahazja af Juda ud hver i sin Vogn. De kørte Jehu i Møde og traf ham ved Jizre'eliten Nabots Mark.
22 And it came to pass, when Jehoram saw Jehu, that he said—Is it peace, Jehu? And he said—What can be the peace, while thy mother Jezebel’s harlotries and her incantations do so abound?
Da Joram fik Øje på Jehu, spurgte han: "Kommer du med Fred, Jehu?" Men han svarede: "Hvad! Skulde jeg komme med Fred, så længe det ikke har Ende med din Moder Jesabels Bolen og hendes mange Trolddomskunster!"
23 Then Jehoram turned his hands, and fled, —and said unto Ahaziah—Treachery! O Ahaziah!
Da drejede Joram omkring og flygtede, idet han roabte tiIAhazja: "Svig, Ahazja!"
24 And, Jehu, bent his bow, and smote Jehoram, between his arms, —and the arrow came out at his heart, —and he sank down in his chariot.
Men Jehu greb sin Bue og skød Joram i Ryggen, så at Pilen gik igennem Hjertet, og han sank sammen i Vognen;
25 Then said he unto Bidkar his officer, Take [him] up, [and] cast him forth, into the field-portion of Naboth the Jezreelite, —for remember, when I and thou were riding as a couple together after Ahab his father, that, Yahweh, laid upon him this doom:
og Jehu sagde til sin Høvedsmand Bidkar: "Tag og kast ham hen på Jizre'eliten Nabots Mark, thi det rinder mig i Hu, hvorledes jeg og du kørte sammen bag efter hans Fader Akab, dengang HERREN fremsatte dette Udsagn imod ham:
26 Surely, the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons, have I lately seen, declareth Yahweh, therefore will I requite thee in this portion, declareth Yahweh. Now, therefore, take [him] up, [and] cast him forth into the portion, according to the word of Yahweh.
Sandelig, Nabots og hans Sønners Blod så jeg i Går, lyder det fra HERREN, og jeg bringer Gengældelse over dig her på denne Mark, lyder det fra HERREN! Tag derfor og kast ham hen på Marken efter HERRENs Ord!"
27 And, Ahaziah king of Judah, saw it, and fled by the way of the garden house, —and Jehu pursued him, and said—Him also! smite him in the chariot! It was in the ascent of Gur, which is by Ibleam. And he fled to Mepidgo, and died there.
Da Kong Ahazja at Juda så det, flygtede han ad Vejen til BetHagan; men Jehu satte efter ham og råbte: "Også ham!" Og i Gurpasset, i Nærheden afJibleam, skød de ham ned i Vognen. Han undslap til Megiddo, men der døde han.
28 And his servants conveyed him in a chariot and brought him into Jerusalem, —and buried him in his sepulchre, with his fathers, in the city of David.
Hans Folk førte ham til Jerusalem og jordede ham i hans Grav hos hans Fædre i Davidsbyen.
29 Now it was, in the eleventh year of Joram son of Ahab, that Ahaziah began to reign over Judah.
I Akabs Søn Jorams ellevte Regerinsgår blev Ahazja Konge over Juda.
30 Now, when Jehu entered Jezreel and, Jezebel, heard of it, she set her eyes in stibium, and ornamented her head, and looked forth through the lattice.
Jehu kom nu til Jizre'el. Så snart Jesabel hørte det, sminkede hun sine Øjne og smykkede sit Hoved og bøjede sig ud af Vinduet;
31 So, when, Jehu, had entered in at the gate, she said, Was it peace, when Zimri slew his lord?
og da Jehu kørte ind igennem Porten, råbte hun: "Kommer du med Fred, Zimri Kongemorder?"
32 And he lifted up his face unto the lattice, and said—Who, is with me? Who? And there looked out unto him, two or three eunuchs.
Men han så op til Vinduet og sagde: "Hvem holder med mig? Hvem?" Så var der et Par Hofmænd, som så ud efter ham,
33 And he said—Hurl her down. And they hurled her down, —and there was sprinkled of her blood—upon the wall, and upon the horses, and they trode upon her.
og han råbte: "Styrt hende ned!" Så styrtede de hende ned. og Blodet sprøjtede op på Muren og på Hestene, og de trådte hende ned.
34 And, when he had entered and eaten and drunk, he said—Look, I pray you, after this accursed woman, and bury her, for the daughter of a king, she is.
Derpå gik han ind og spiste og drak. Så sagde han: "Tag jer af hende, den forbandede, og jord hende, hun var jo dog en Kongedatter!"
35 So they went to bury her, —but found not of her—save the skull, and the feet, and the palms of the hands.
Men da de gik ud for at jorde hende, fandt de ikke andet af hende end Hjerneskallen, Fødderne og Hænderne.
36 Then came they back, and told him, and he said—The word of Yahweh, it is, which he spake by the hand of his servant, Elijah the Tishbite, saying—In the town-land of Jezreel, shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel!
Og de kom tilbage og meldte ham det; da sagde han: "Det er det Ord, HERREN talede ved sin Tjener Tisjbiten Elias: På Jizre'els Mark skal Hundene æde Jesabels Legeme!
37 So shall the carcass of Jezebel become like heaps of dung on the face of the field, in the town-land of Jezreel: So that they cannot say, This, is Jezebel!
og Jesabels Lig skal blive som Gødning på Ageren på Jizre'els Mark, så ingen kan sige: Dette er Jesabel!"
