< 2 Kings 23 >
1 And he sent the king and they gathered to him all [the] elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
Og Kongen sendte hen, og alle de Ældste i Juda og Jerusalem samlede sig om ham.
2 And he went up the king [the] house of Yahweh and every person of Judah and all [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem with him and the priests and the prophets and all the people from [the] small and unto [the] great and he read aloud in ears their all [the] words of [the] scroll of the covenant which had been found in [the] house of Yahweh.
Og Kongen gik op i Herrens Hus, og alle Judas Mænd og alle Jerusalems Indbyggere med ham og Præsterne og Profeterne og alt Folket, baade smaa og store, og han læste for deres Øren alle Ordene i Pagtens Bog, som var funden i Herrens Hus.
3 And he stood the king at the pillar and he made the covenant - before Yahweh to walk after Yahweh and to keep commandments his and testimonies his and statutes his with all heart and with all being to establish [the] words of the covenant this which were written on the scroll this and it took its stand all the people in the covenant.
Og Kongen stod paa Forhøjningen og gjorde Pagten for Herrens Ansigt, at de skulde vandre efter Herren og holde hans Bud og hans Vidnesbyrd og hans Skikke af ganske Hjerte og af ganske Sjæl for at hævde denne Pagts Ord, som vare skrevne i denne Bog; og alt Folket indgik Pagten.
4 And he commanded the king Hilkiah the priest great and [the] priests of the second rank and [the] keepers of the threshold to bring out from [the] temple of Yahweh all the articles which were made for Baal and for Asherah and for all [the] host of the heavens and he burned them from [the] outside of Jerusalem in [the] fields of Kidron and he carried dust their Beth-el.
Og Kongen bød Hilkia, Ypperstepræsten, og Præsterne af anden Rang og Dørvogterne, at de skulde udføre af Herrens Tempel alle de Redskaber, som vare gjorte til Baal og til Astarte og til al Himmelens Hær; og de opbrændte dem uden for Jerusalem paa Kedrons Marker, og Støvet af dem lod han bringe til Bethel.
5 And he removed the pagan priests whom they had appointed [the] kings of Judah and he made smoke at the high places in [the] cities of Judah and [the] surroundings of Jerusalem and the [ones who] made smoke to Baal to the sun and to the moon and to the constellations and to all [the] host of the heavens.
Og han afsatte de afgudiske Præster, som Judas Konger havde indsat, og som havde gjort Røgelse paa Højene i Judas Stæder og i dem, som laa omkring Jerusalem, samt dem, som gjorde Røgelse for Baal, for Solen og for Maanen og for Himmeltegnene og for al Himmelens Hær.
6 And he brought out the Asherah pole from [the] house of Yahweh from [the] outside of Jerusalem to [the] wadi of Kidron and he burned it in [the] wadi of Kidron and he crushed [it] to dust and he threw dust its on [the] burial site of [the] sons of the people.
Og han lod Astartebilledet føre ud af Herrens Hus uden for Jerusalem til Kedrons Bæk og opbrændte det ved Kedrons Bæk og stødte det smaat til Støv, og han kastede dets Støv paa Folkets Børns Grave.
7 And he broke down [the] houses of the male cult prostitutes which [were] in [the] house of Yahweh where the women [were] weaving there containers for Asherah.
Og han nedbrød de Skørlevneres Huse, som vare ved Herrens Hus, i hvilke Kvinderne vævede Telte for Astarte.
8 And he brought all the priests from [the] cities of Judah and he made unclean the high places where they had made smoke there the priests from Geba to Beer Sheba and he broke down [the] high places of the gates which [were at] [the] entrance of [the] gate of Joshua [the] governor of the city which [was] at [the] left [side] of anyone at [the] gate of the city.
Og han lod alle Præsterne komme fra Judas Stæder og vanhelligede Højene, hvor Præsterne havde gjort Røgelse, fra Geba indtil Beersaba; og han nedbrød Højene ved Portene, den, som var ved Indgangen til Josvas, Stadsfyrstens, Port, og den, som var til venstre, naar man gaar ind ad Stadens Port.
9 Nevertheless not they went up [the] priests of the high places to [the] altar of Yahweh in Jerusalem that except they ate unleavened bread in among brothers their.
Dog ofrede ikke Højenes Præster paa Herrens Alter i Jerusalem, endskønt de aad usyrede Brød midt iblandt deres Brødre.
10 And he made unclean Topheth which [was] in [the] valley of (Ben *Q(K)*) Hinnom to not to make pass anyone son his and daughter his in the fire to Molech.
Og han vanhelligede Tofet, som var i Hinnoms Børns Dal, for at ikke nogen skulde lade sin Søn eller sin Datter gaa igennem Ilden til Molek.
11 And he removed the horses which they had dedicated [the] kings of Judah to the sun from [the] going of [the] house of Yahweh to [the] room of Nathan Melech the court-official which [was] in the Parbar and [the] chariots of the sun he burned with fire.
Og han afskaffede de Heste, som Judas Konger havde indviet til Solen, foran Indgangen til Herrens Hus, ved Hofbetjenten Nethan-Meleks Kammer, hvilket var paa Parvarim, og han opbrændte Solens Vogne med Ild.
12 And the altars which [were] on the roof of [the] upper room of Ahaz which they had made - [the] kings of Judah and the altars which he had made Manasseh in [the] two [the] courtyards of [the] house of Yahweh he pulled down the king and he ran from there and he threw dust their into [the] wadi of Kidron.
Og de Altre, som vare paa Akas's Sals Tag, og som Judas Konger havde opført, og de Altre, som Manasse havde opført i de to Herrens Huses Forgaarde, nedbrød Kongen, og han skyndte sig derfra og lod deres Støv kaste i Kedrons Bæk.
13 And the high places which - [were] on [the] face of Jerusalem which [were] from [the] south of [the] mountain of destruction which he had built Solomon [the] king of Israel to Astarte - [the] detestable thing of [the] Sidonians and to Chemosh [the] detestable thing of Moab and to Milcom [the] abomination of [the] people of Ammon he made unclean the king.
Og de Høje, som vare lige for Jerusalem, som vare paa den højre Haand af Mashiths Bjerg, hvilke Salomo, Israels Konge, havde bygget for Astarte, Zidoniernes Vederstyggelighed, og for Kamos, Moabiternes Vederstyggelighed, og for Milkom, Ammons Børns Vederstyggelighed, vanhelligede Kongen.
14 And he broke the sacred pillars and he cut down the Asherah poles and he filled place their bones of humankind.
Og han sønderslog Støtterne og udryddede Astartebillederne og opfyldte deres Sted med Menneskeben.
15 And also the altar which [was] at Beth-el the high place which he had made Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat who he caused to sin Israel also the altar that and the high place he tore down and he burned the high place he crushed [it] to dust and he burned [the] Asherah pole.
Ja ogsaa det Alter, som var i Bethel, og Højen, som Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, som kom Israel til at synde, havde gjort, ja det Alter og Højen nedbrød han, og han opbrændte Højen og gjorde den til fint Støv og opbrændte Astartebilledet.
16 And he turned Josiah and he saw the graves which [were] there on the mountain and he sent and he took the bones from the graves and he burned [them] on the altar and he made unclean it according to [the] word of Yahweh which he had proclaimed [the] man of God who he proclaimed the words these.
Og Josias vendte sig og saa de Grave, som vare der paa Bjerget, og han sendte hen og lod tage Benene af Gravene og opbrændte dem paa Alteret og vanhelligede det efter Herrens Ord, som den Guds Mand havde udraabt, han som udraabte disse Ord.
17 And he said what? [is] the monument this which I [am] seeing and they said to him [the] people of the city the grave of [the] man of God who he came from Judah and he proclaimed the things these which you have done on the altar of Beth-el.
Og han sagde: Hvad er det for et Gravmæle, som jeg ser? og Mændene i Staden sagde til ham: Det er den Guds Mands Grav, som kom fra Juda og raabte disse Ting, som du har gjort imod Alteret i Bethel.
18 And he said leave alone him anyone may not he disturb bones his and they left undisturbed bones his [the] bones of the prophet who he had come from Samaria.
Og han sagde: Lader ham hvile, ingen flytte hans Ben; og de reddede hans Ben tillige med den Profets Ben, som kom fra Samaria.
19 And also all [the] houses of the high places which - [were] in [the] cities of Samaria which they had made [the] kings of Israel to provoke anger he removed Josiah and he did to them according to all the deeds which he had done at Beth-el.
Ja ogsaa alle Højenes Huse, som vare i Samarias Stæder, og som Israels Konger havde opført til at opirre Gud, borttog Josias og gjorde ved dem ganske paa samme Maade, som han havde gjort i Bethel.
20 And he slaughtered all [the] priests of the high places who [were] there on the altars and he burned bones of humankind on them and he returned Jerusalem.
Og han slagtede alle Højenes Præster, som der vare, paa Altrene, og opbrændte Menneskeben paa dem; og han kom tilbage til Jerusalem.
21 And he commanded the king all the people saying observe a passover to Yahweh God your according to [what] is written on [the] scroll of the covenant this.
Og Kongen bød alt Folket og sagde: Holder Paaske for Herren eders Gud, saaledes som der er skrevet i denne Pagts Bog.
22 For not it had been observed like the passover this since [the] days of the judges who they judged Israel and all [the] days of [the] kings of Israel and [the] kings of Judah.
Thi der var ikke holdt en Paaske som denne fra Dommernes Dage af, som dømte Israel, og gennem alle Israels Kongers og Judas Kongers Dage.
23 That except in eight-teen year of the king Josiah it was observed the passover this to Yahweh in Jerusalem.
Men i Kong Josias's attende Aar blev denne Paaske holdt for Herren i Jerusalem.
24 And also the necromancers and the soothsayers and the teraphim and the idols and all the detestable things which they were seen in [the] land of Judah and in Jerusalem he removed Josiah so as to carry out [the] words of the law which were written on the scroll which he had found Hilkiah the priest [the] house of Yahweh.
Men ogsaa Spaakvinderne og Tegnsudlæggerne og Husguderne og de stygge Afguder og alle de Vederstyggeligheder, som bleve sete i Judas Land og i Jerusalem, borttog Josias, for at holde Lovens Ord, som vare skrevne i Bogen, som Hilkia, Præsten, havde fundet i Herrens Hus.
25 And like him not he had been before him a king who he turned back to Yahweh with all heart his and with all being his and with all strength his according to all [the] law of Moses and after him not he arose like him.
Og der var ingen Konge som han før ham, der omvendte sig til Herren af sit ganske Hjerte og af sin ganske Sjæl og af al sin Formue efter al Moses Lov, og der opstod ej nogen efter ham som han.
26 Nevertheless - not he turned back Yahweh from [the] burning of anger his great which it burned anger his on Judah on all the provocations which he had provoked to anger him Manasseh.
Dog vendte Herren ikke om fra sin store Vredes Ild, hvormed hans Vrede var optændt imod Juda, for alle de Opirrelser, som Manasse havde opirret ham med.
27 And he said Yahweh also Judah I will remove from on face my just as I removed Israel and I will reject the city this which I chose Jerusalem and the house which I said it will be name my there.
Og Herren sagde: Jeg vil ogsaa bortkaste Juda fra mit Ansigt, ligesom jeg bortkastede Israel, og jeg vil forkaste denne Stad, som jeg udvalgte, Jerusalem, og det Hus, om hvilket jeg sagde: Mit Navn skal være der.
28 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Josiah and all that he did ¿ not [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] matters of the days of [the] kings of Judah.
Men det øvrige af Josias's Handeler og alt, hvad han gjorde, ere de Ting ikke skrevne i Judas Kongers Krønikers Bog?
29 In days his he went up Pharaoh Necho [the] king of Egypt on [the] king of Assyria to [the] river of Euphrates and he went the king Josiah to meet him and he killed him at Megiddo when saw he him.
I hans Dage drog Farao Neko, Kongen af Ægypten, op imod Kongen af Assyrien til Floden Frat, og Kong Josias drog imod ham; men denne dræbte ham i Megiddo, der han havde set ham.
30 And they made ride him servants his dead from Megiddo and they brought him Jerusalem and they buried him in own grave his and it took [the] people of the land Jehoahaz [the] son of Josiah and they anointed him and they made king him in place of father his.
Og hans Tjenere førte ham død fra Megiddo og førte ham til Jerusalem og begravede ham i hans Grav; og Folket i Landet tog Joakas, Josias's Søn, og salvede ham og gjorde ham til Konge i hans Faders Sted.
31 [was] a son of Twenty and three year[s] Jehoahaz when became king he and three months he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his [was] Hamutal [the] daughter of Jeremiah from Libnah.
Joakas var tre og tyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede tre Maaneder i Jerusalem, og hans Moders Navn var Hamutal, Jeremias's Datter fra Libna.
32 And he did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh according to all that they had done ancestors his.
Og han gjorde det, som var ondt for Herrens Øjne, efter alt det, som hans Fædre gjorde.
33 And he confined him Pharaoh Necho at Riblah in [the] land of Hamath (from reigning *Q(K)*) in Jerusalem and he put a fine on the land one hundred talent[s] of silver and a talent of gold.
Og Farao Neko lod ham lægge i Lænker i Ribla udi Hamaths Land, at han ikke skulde regere i Jerusalem, og han lagde en Straf paa Landet, hundrede Centner Sølv og et Centner Guld.
34 And he made king Pharaoh Necho Eliakim [the] son of Josiah in place of Josiah father his and he changed name his Jehoiakim and Jehoahaz he took and he came Egypt and he died there.
Og Farao Neko gjorde Eliakim, Josias's Søn, til Konge i hans Faders, Josias's Sted, og omvendte hans Navn til Jojakim; men Joakas tog han med, og denne kom til Ægypten og døde der.
35 And the silver and the gold he gave Jehoiakim to Pharaoh only he taxed the land to give the silver on [the] mouth of Pharaoh each according to valuation his he exacted the silver and the gold [the] people of the land to give [it] to Pharaoh Necho.
Og Jojakim gav Farao Sølvet og Guldet, men han lignede en Skat paa Landet for at kunne give Pengene efter Faraos Befaling; eftersom Skatten var lignet paa hver især, inddrev han Sølvet og Guldet af Folket i Landet for at give det til Farao Neko.

37 And he did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh according to all that they had done ancestors his.
Og han gjorde det, som var ondt for Herrens Øjne, efter alt det, som hans Fædre havde gjort.
