2 Chronicles 25
1 A son of twenty and five year[s] he became king Amaziah and twenty and nine year[s] he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his [was] Jehoaddan from Jerusalem.
Amazja var fem og tyve År gammel, da han blev Konge, og han herskede ni og tyve År i Jerusalem. Hans Moder hed Jehoaddan og var fra Jerusalem.
2 And he did the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh only not with a heart complete.
Han gjorde, hvad der var ret i HERRENs Øjne, dog ikke med et helt Hjerte.
3 And it was just when it was secure the kingdom on him and he killed servants his who had struck down the king father his.
Da han havde sikret sig Magten, lod han dem af sine Folk dræbe, der havde dræbt hans Fader Kongen,
4 And children their not he put to death for according to [what] is written in the law in [the] book of Moses which he commanded Yahweh saying not they will die parents on children and children not they will die on parents for each for own sin his they will die.
men deres Børn lod han ikke ihjelslå, i Henhold til hvad der står skrevet i Moses's Lovbog, hvor HERREN påbyder: "Fædre skal ikke lide Døden for Børns Skyld, og Børn skal ikke lide Døden for Fædres Skyld. Men enhver skal lide Døden for sin egen Synd."
5 And he assembled Amaziah Judah and he appointed them to [the] house of ancestors to [the] commanders of the thousands and to [the] commanders of the hundreds for all Judah and Benjamin and he enrolled them from a son of twenty year[s] and up-wards and he found them three hundred thousand chosen [man] [one who] goes forth warfare [one who] holds spear and body shield.
Amazja samlede Judæerne og opstillede dem efter Fædrenehuse under Tusind- og Hundredførerne, hele Juda og Benjamin, og da han mnønstrede dem fra Tyveårsalderen og opefter, fandt han, at de udgjorde 300.000 udvalgte Folk, øvede Krigere, der har Skjold og Spyd.
6 And he hired from Israel one hundred thousand mighty [man] of strength for one hundred talent[s] of silver.
Dertil lejede han i Israel 100.000 dygtige Krigere for 100 Sølvtalenter.
7 And [the] man of God he came to him saying O king may not it go with you [the] army of Israel for not Yahweh [is] with Israel all [the] descendants of Ephraim.
Men en Guds Mand kom til ham og sagde: "Israels Hær må ikke følge dig, Konge, thi HERREN er ikke med Israel, ikke med nogen af Efraimiterne;
8 That except go you act be strong for the battle he will overthrow you God before [the] enemy for there [is] strength in God to help and to overthrow.
og hvis du mener, at du kan vinde Styrke på den Måde, vil Gud bringe dig til Fald for Fjenden, thi hos Gud er der Kraft til at hjælpe og til at bringe til Fald!"
9 And he said Amaziah to [the] man of God and what? [is] to do to [the] one hundred the talent[s] which I paid to [the] troop[s] of Israel and he said [the] man of God there [belongs] to Yahweh to give to you much more than this.
Amazja spurgte den Guds Mand: "Hvad så med de 100 Sølvtalenter, jeg gav de israelitiske Krigsfolk?" Og den Guds Mand svarede: "HERREN kan give dig langt mere end det!"
10 And he separated them Amaziah the troop[s] which it had come to him from Ephraim to go to place their and it burned anger their exceedingly on Judah and they returned to place their in [the] heat of anger.
Da udskilte Amazja de Krigsfolk, der var kommet til ham fra Efraim, og lod dem drage hjem; men deres Vrede blussede heftigt op mod Juda, og de vendte hjem i fnysende Vrede.
11 And Amaziah he strengthened himself and he led out people his and he went [the] Valley of Salt and he struck down [the] people of Seir ten thousand.
Amazja tog nu Mod til sig og førte sine Krigere til Saltdalen og nedhuggede 10.000 af Se'iriterne;
12 And ten thousand alive they took captive [the] people of Judah and they brought them to [the] top of the cliff and they threw them from [the] top of cliff and all of them they were split open.
desuden tog Judæerne 10.000 levende til Fange; dem førte de op på Klippens Top og styrtede dem ned derfra, så de alle knustes.
13 And [the] sons of the troop which he had turned back Amaziah from going with him to the battle and they made a raid on [the] cities of Judah from Samaria and to Beth Horon and they struck down of them three thousand and they plundered plunder much.
Men de Krigsfolk, Amazja havde sendt hjem, så de ikke kom til at følge ham i Krigen, faldt ind i Judas Byer fra Samaria til Bet-Horon, huggede 3.000 af Indbyggerne ned og gjorde stort Bytte.
14 And it was after came Amaziah from defeating [the] Edomites and he brought [the] gods of [the] people of Seir and he set up them for himself to gods and before them he bowed down and to them he made smoke.
Da Amazja kom hjem fra Sejren over Edomiterne, havde han Se'iriternes Guder med, og han opstillede dem som sine Guder, tilbad dem og tændte Offerild for dem.
15 And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Amaziah and he sent to him a prophet and he said to him why? have you sought [the] gods of the people which not they delivered own people their from hand your.
Da blussede HERRENs Vrede op mod Amazja, og han sendte en Profet til ham, og denne sagde til ham: "Hvorfor søger du dette Folks Guder, som ikke kunde frelse deres Folk af din Hånd?"
16 And it was - when was speaking he to him and he said to him ¿ into a counselor of the king have we made you cease yourself why? will people strike down you and he ceased the prophet and he said I know that he has planned God to destroy you for you have done this and not you have listened to counsel my.
Men da han talte således, sagde Kongen til ham: "Har man gjort dig til Kongens Rådgiver? Hold inde, ellers bliver du slået ihjel!" Da holdt Profeten inde og sagde: "Jeg indser, at Gud har i Sinde at ødelægge dig, siden du bærer dig således ad og ikke hører mit Råd!"
17 And he took counsel Amaziah [the] king of Judah and he sent to Joash [the] son of Jehoahaz [the] son of Jehu [the] king of Israel saying (come! *Q(K)*) let us look at one another faces.
Efter at have overtænkt Sagen sendte Kong Amazja af Juda Bud til Jehus Søn Joahaz's Søn, Kong Joas af Israel, og lod sige: "Kom, lad os se hinanden under Øjne!"
18 And he sent Joash [the] king of Israel to Amaziah [the] king of Judah saying the thornbush which [was] in Lebanon it sent to the cedar which [was] in Lebanon saying give! daughter your to son my to a wife and it passed by [the] animal of the field which [was] in Lebanon and it trampled the thornbush.
Men Kong Joas af Israel sendte Kong Amazja, af Juda det Svar: "Tidselen på Libanon sendte engang det Bud til Cederen på Libanon: Giv min Søn din Datter til Ægte! Men Libanons vilde Dyr løb hen over Tidselen og trampede den ned!
19 You have said here! you have struck down Edom and it has lifted you heart your to become heavy now remain! in house your why? will you engage in strife with harm and you will fall you and Judah with you.
Du tænker: Se, jeg har slået Edom! Og det har gjort dig overmodig, så du vil vinde mere Ære. Bliv, hvor du er! Hvorfor vil du udfordre Ulykken og udsætte både dig selv og Juda for Fald?"
20 And not he listened Amaziah for [was] from God it so as to give them in a hand for they had sought [the] gods of Edom.
Men Amazja vilde intet høre, thi Gud føjede det såledesfor at give dem til Pris, fordi de søgte Edoms Guder.
21 And he went up Joash [the] king of Israel and they looked at one another faces he and Amaziah [the] king of Judah at Beth Shemesh which [belonged] to Judah.
Så drog Kong Joas af Israel ud, og han og Kong Amazja af Juda så hinanden under Øjne ved Bet-Sjemesj i Juda;
22 And it was defeated Judah before Israel and they fled each to tents his.
Juda blev slået af Israel, og de flygtede hver til sit.
23 And Amaziah [the] king of Judah [the] son of Joash [the] son of Jehoahaz he caught Joash [the] king of Israel at Beth Shemesh and he brought him Jerusalem and he made a breach in [the] wall of Jerusalem from [the] gate of Ephraim to [the] gate of the Corner four hundred cubit[s].
Men Kong Joas af Israel tog Joahaz's Søn Joas's Søn, Kong Amazja af Juda, tifange ved Bet-Sjemesj og førte ham til Jerusalem. Derpå nedrev han Jerusalems Mur på en Strækning af 400 Alen, fra Efraimsporten til Hjørneporten;
24 And all the gold and the silver and all the articles which were found in [the] house of God with Obed-Edom and [the] treasures of [the] house of the king and [the] sons of the pledges and he returned Samaria.
og han tog alt det Guld og Sølv og alle de Kar, der fandtes i Guds Hus hos Obed-Edom og i Skatkammeret i Kongens Palads; desuden tog han Gidsler og vendte så tilbage til Samaria.
25 And he lived Amaziah [the] son of Joash [the] king of Judah after [the] death of Joash [the] son of Jehoahaz [the] king of Israel fif-teen year[s].
Joas's Søn, Kong Amazja af Juda, levede endnu femten År, efter at Joahaz's Søn, Kong Joas at Israel, var død.
26 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Amaziah former and latter ¿ not there! [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] kings of Judah and Israel.
Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Amazja fra først til sidst, står optegnet i Bogen om Judas og Israels Konger.
27 And from [the] time when he turned aside Amaziah from after Yahweh and people conspired on him a conspiracy in Jerusalem and he fled Lachish towards and they sent after him Lachish towards and they put to death him there.
Men ved den Tid Amazja faldt fra HERREN, stiftedes der en Sammensværgelse mod ham i Jerusalem, og han flygtede til Lakisj, men der blev sendt Folk efter ham til Lakisj, og de dræbte ham der.
28 And they carried him on horses and they buried him with ancestors his in [the] city of Judah.
Så løftede man ham op på Heste og jordede ham hos hans Fædre i Davidsbyen.
