1 Kings 16
1 During the time that Baasha [was king of Israel], [the prophet] Jehu, Hanani’s son, gave Baasha this message that he had received from Yahweh:
Så kom Herrans ord till Jehu, Hanani son, emot Baesa, och sade:
2 “You were very insignificant/unimportant [IDM] when I caused you to become the ruler of my Israeli people. But you have caused me to become very angry by doing [IDM] the kinds of evil things that King Jeroboam did. You have also caused me to become angry by causing my people to sin.
Derföre, att jag dig utu stoftet upphäfvit hafver, och gjort dig till en Första öfver mitt folk Israel, och du vandrar i Jerobeams väg, och kommer mitt folk Israel till att synda, så att du mig förtörnar genom deras synder;
3 So now I will get rid of you and your family [MTY]. I will do to you just like I did to Jeroboam and his family.
Si, så vill jag borttaga Baesa efterkommande, och hans hus efterkommande, och vill sätta ditt hus såsom Jerobeams hus, Nebats sons.
4 [The bodies of] those in your family who die in this city [will not be buried; they] will be eaten by dogs; and [the corpses of] those who die in the fields will be eaten by vultures.”
Den af Baesa dör i staden, honom skola hundar uppäta; och den af honom dör på markene, honom skola himmelens foglar uppäta.
5 The other things that happened during the time that Baasha ruled Israel, and the things that he did, are written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Hvad nu mer om Baesa sägandes är, och hvad han gjort hafver, och hans magt, si, det är skrifvet uti Israels Konungars Chrönico.
6 When Baasha died, he was buried in Tirzah, [the capital city]. Then his son Elah became king.
Och Baesa afsomnade med sina fäder, och vardt begrafven i Thirza; och hans son Ela vardt Konung i hans stad.
7 Yahweh gave that message about Baasha and his family to the prophet Jehu. Baasha had done many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, which caused Yahweh to become angry. Baasha did the same kind of things that King Jeroboam and his family had done previously. Yahweh was also angry with Baasha because he had killed all of Jeroboam’s family.
Och Herrans ord kom genom Propheten Jehu, Hanani son, öfver Baesa, och öfver hans hus, och emot allt det onda, som han för Herranom gjort hade, till att förtörna honom genom sina händers verk, att det skulle varda såsom Jerobeams hus, och derföre, att han denna slagit hade.
8 After Asa had been the king of Judah for almost 26 years, Elah became the king of Israel. Elah ruled in Tirzah for [only] two years.
Uti sjette och tjugonde årena Asa, Juda Konungs, vardt Ela, Baesa son, Konung öfver Israel i Thirza, i tu år.
9 [A man named] Zimri was one of Elah’s army officers. He commanded the drivers of half of Elah’s army’s (chariots/two-wheeled vehicles pulled by horses). He made plans to kill Elah while Elah was in Tirzah, getting drunk at the house of [a man named] Arza. Arza was the man who took care of the things in the king’s palace.
Men hans tjenare Simri, en öfverste öfver hälften af vagnarna, gjorde ett förbund emot honom; men han var i Thirza, drack och var drucken i Arza hus, fogdans i Thirza.
10 Zimri went into Arza’s house and killed Elah. Then Zimri became the king of Israel. That was when Asa had been the king of Judah for 27 years.
Och Simri kom derin, och slog honom ihjäl, uti sjunde och tjugonde årena Asa, Juda Konungs; och blef Konung i hans stad.
11 As soon as Zimri became king [MTY], he killed all of Baasha’s family [MTY]. That included every male [IDM] in Baasha’s family and all of Baasha’s male friends.
Och då han var Konung, och satt på sin stol, slog han hela Baesa hus, och lät intet qvart blifva, icke den som på väggena pissar; dertill hans fränder och vänner.
12 That was just what Yahweh told the prophet Jehu would happen.
Alltså förgjorde Simri hela Baesa hus, efter Herrans ord, som han om Baesa talat hade, genom den Propheten Jehu;
13 Baasha and his son Elah had sinned and led the Israeli people to sin. They caused Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli people worshiped, to become angry, because they both urged the people [to worship] worthless idols.
För alla Baesa och hans sons Ela synders skull, som de gjort hade, och kommo Israel till att synda, och förtörnade Herran Israels Gud i deras afguderi.
14 Everything else that Elah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Hvad nu mer af Ela sägandes är, och allt det han gjorde, si, det är skrifvet uti Israels Konungars Chrönico.
15 So Zimri became the king of Israel after Asa had been king of Judah for 27 years. But Zimri ruled in Tirzah for only seven days. The Israeli army was beseiging/surrounding Gibeah, a town which belonged to the Philistine people-group.
Uti sjunde och tjugonde årena Asa, Juda Konungs, vardt Simri Konung i sju dagar i Thirza; ty folket låg för Gibbethon de Philisteers.
16 The men in the Israeli army camp heard that Zimri had secretly planned to kill King Elah, and then had killed him. So on that day the soldiers chose Omri, the commander of their army, to become the king of Israel.
Då nu folket i lägret hörde sägas, att Simri hade gjort ett förbund, och slagit Konungen ihjäl, gjorde hele Israel på samma dagen Amri, härhöfvitsmannen, till Konung öfver Israel i lägrena.
17 The Israeli army was camped near Gibbethon [city]. When they heard what Zimri had done, they left there and went to Tirzah, and surrounded the city.
Och Amri drog upp, och hele Israel med honom, ifrå Gibbethon, och belade Thirza.
18 When Zimri realized that the city was [about to be] captured, he went into his palace and set it on fire. So the palace burned down, and he died [in the fire].
Då nu Simri såg, att staden skulle varda vunnen, gick han uti palatset i Konungshusena, och brände sig upp med Konungshusena, och blef död;
19 He died because he had sinned by doing the things that Yahweh considered to be evil. Jeroboam had led the Israeli people to sin, and Zimri sinned just like Jeroboam had sinned.
För sina synders skull, som han gjort hade, så att han hade gjort det ondt var för Herranom, och vandrade uti Jerobeams väg, och i hans synd, som han gjorde, och kom Israel till att synda.
20 All the other things that Zimri did, and the record of how he rebelled [against King Elah], are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Hvad nu mer af Simri sägandes är, och huru han gjorde ett förbund, si, det är skrifvet i Israels Konungars Chrönico.
21 After Zimri died, the Israeli people were divided. One group wanted Tibni, the son of Ginath, to be their king. The other group wanted Omri [to be the king].
På den tiden söndrade sig folket Israel i två delar: en hälften höll sig intill Thibni, Ginaths son, och gjorde honom till Konung; den andra hälften höll sig intill Amri.
22 Those who supported Omri (were stronger than/defeated) those who supported Tibni. So Tibni was killed, and Omri became king.
Men det folk, som höll sig intill Amri, vardt starkare än det folk, som höll sig intill Thibni, Ginaths son. Och Thibni blef död, och så blef Amri Konung.
23 Omri became king when Asa had been king of Judah for almost 31 years. Omri ruled Israel for 12 years. For the first six years he ruled in Tirzah.
Uti första och tretionde årena Asa, Juda Konungs, vardt Amri Konung öfver Israel i tolf år; och regerade i Thirza i sex år.
24 Then he bought a hill from [a man named] Shemer and paid him about (150 pounds/70 kg.) of silver for it. Then Omri ordered his men to build a city on that hill, and he called it Samaria, to honor Shemer, the man who owned it previously.
Han köpte Samarie berg af Semer, för två centener silfver; och byggde uppå bergena, och kallade staden, som han byggde, efter Semers namn, som herre var på Samarie berg.
25 But Omri did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He did more evil deeds than any of the kings who ruled Israel before he did.
Och Amri gjorde det ondt var för Herranom, och var argare än alla de för honom varit hade;
26 [When] Jeroboam [was previously the king, he] had led the Israeli people to sin, and Omri committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam did. The Israeli people caused Yahweh, the God the Israeli people had worshiped, to become very angry, because they worshiped worthless idols.
Och vandrade i alla Jerobeams vägar, Nebats sons, och i hans synder, dermed han kom Israel till att synda, så att de förtörnade Herran Israels Gud uti deras afguderi.
27 Everything that Omri did, and the record of the victories that his [army] won, are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Hvad nu mer af Amri sägandes är, och allt det han gjort hafver, och om hans magt som han bedref, si, det är skrifvet uti Israels Konungars Chrönico.
28 After Omri died, he was buried in Samaria, and his son Ahab became king.
Och Amri afsomnade med sina fäder, och vardt begrafven i Samarien; och Achab hans son vardt Konung i hans stad.
29 Ahab became king of Israel when Asa had ruled Judah for almost 38 years. Ahab ruled in Samaria [city] for 22 years.
Uti åttonde och tretionde årena Asa, Juda Konungs, vardt Achab, Amri son, Konung öfver Israel; och regerade öfver Israel i Samarien tu och tjugu år;
30 Ahab did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He did more evil things than any of the kings who ruled Israel before he did.
Och gjorde det ondt var för Herranom, öfver alla dem som för honom varit hade.
31 He committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam did, but he did things that were worse than the things that Jeroboam did. He married [a woman named] Jezebel, the daughter of Ethbaal, the king of Sidon [city]. Then Ahab started to worship Baal, [the god that the Canaan people-group worshiped].
Och var honom icke nog, att han vandrade i Jerobeams, Nebats sons, synder; utan tog dertill Isebel, EthBaals dotter, Konungens i Zidon, till hustru, och gick bort, och tjente Baal, och tillbad honom;
32 He built a temple in Samaria in order that the Israeli people could worship Baal there, and he put an altar there for [making sacrifices to] Baal.
Och uppsatte Baal ett altare uti Baals hus, det han honom byggde i Samarien;
33 He also made an idol that represented Asherah, [Baal’s wife]. He did many more things that caused Yahweh to become angry. He did more evil things than any of the previous kings of Israel had done.
Och gjorde en lund; så att Achab mer gjorde till att förtörna Herran Israels Gud, än alle Israels Konungar, som för honom varit hade.
34 During the years that Ahab [ruled], Hiel, a man from Bethel [city], rebuilt Jericho [city]. But when he started to rebuild the city, his oldest son Abiram died. And [when the city was finished, ] while Hiel was building the city gates, his youngest son Segub died. They died just like Yahweh had told Joshua would happen [to the sons of anyone who would rebuild Jericho].
På samma tid byggde Hiel af BethEl Jericho. Det kostade honom hans första son Abiram, då han grundvalen lade; och hans yngsta son Segub, då han satte portarna derföre, efter Herrans ord, som han sagt hade genom Josua, Nuns son.
