1 Kings 15
1 In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam son of Nebat, Abijah began to reign over Judah.
I det attande styringsåret åt Jerobeam Nebatsson vart Abiam konge yver Juda.
2 He ruled for three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maacah. She was the daughter of Abishalom.
Tri år styrde han i Jerusalem; mor hans heitte Ma’aka Abisalomsdotter.
3 He walked in all the sins that his father had committed before his time; his heart was not devoted to Yahweh his God as the heart of David, his ancestor, had been.
Og han fylgde far sin i alle dei syndar som han hadde gjort fyre honom, og hjarta hans var ikkje heilt med Herren, hans Gud, som hjarta åt David, far hans, hadde vore.
4 Nevertheless, for David's sake, Yahweh his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem by raising up his son after him in order to strengthen Jerusalem.
Men for David skuld gav Herren, hans Gud, honom ei lampa i Jerusalem, med di han lyfta upp son hans etter honom og let Jerusalem få standa,
5 God did this because David had done what was right in his eyes; for all the days of his life, he had not turned away from anything that he commanded him, except only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
for di David hadde gjort det som rett var i Herrens augo og ikkje vike ifrå noko av det han hadde bode honom, so lenge han livde, so nær som i saki med hetiten Uria.
6 Now there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of Abijah's life.
Millom Rehabeam og Jerobeam var det ufred so lenge han livde.
7 As for the other matters of Abijah, all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah? There was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
Det som elles er å fortelja um Abiam og um alt det han gjorde, det er uppskrive i krønikeboki åt Juda-kongarne. Abiam og Jerobeam låg i ufred med kvarandre.
8 Abijah slept with his ancestors, and they buried him in the city of David. Asa his son became king in his place.
Og Abiam lagde seg til kvila hjå federne sine, og dei gravlagde honom i Davidsbyen; og Asa, son hans, vart konge i staden hans.
9 In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah.
I tjugande året åt Jerobeam, kongen i Israel, vart Asa konge i Juda.
10 He ruled forty-one years in Jerusalem. His grandmother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.
Han styrde eitt og fyrti år i Jerusalem. Hans mor heitte Ma’aka Abisalomsdotter.
11 Asa did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, as David, his ancestor, had done.
Og Asa gjorde det som rett var i Herrens augo, liksom David, far hans.
12 He expelled the cultic prostitutes from the land and removed all the idols that his ancestors had made.
Han jaga utukt-sveinarne ut or landet, og fekk burt alle dei skarnsgudarne som far hans hadde laga.
13 He also removed Maacah, his grandmother, from being queen, because she had made a disgusting figure out of an Asherah pole. Asa cut down the disgusting figure and burned it at the Kidron Valley.
Og jamvel mor si, Ma’aka, sette han ifrå hennar dronningrang, for di ho hadde late gjera eit styggjelegt bilæte for Asjera; Asa hogg ned det stygge bilætet hennar og brende det i Kidronsdalen.
14 But the high places were not taken away. Nevertheless, Asa's heart was completely devoted to Yahweh all his days.
Men offerhaugarne fekk dei ikkje burt; like vel var hjarta åt Asa heilt med Herren, so lenge han livde.
15 He brought into the house of Yahweh the things that were set apart by his father, and his own things that had been set apart that were made of silver and gold, and vessels.
Heilaggåvorne åt far sin og heilaggåvorne sine eigne flutte han inn i Herrens hus, sylv og gull og ymse ting.
16 There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel, all their days.
Millom Asa og Basea, kongen i Israel, var det ufred so lenge dei livde.
17 Baasha king of Israel, acted aggressively against Judah and built up Ramah, so that he might not allow anyone to leave or enter into the land of Asa king of Judah.
Basea, Israels-kongen, drog upp imot Juda og bygde ei borg i Rama, av di han vilde hindra at nokon drog ut eller inn hjå Asa, kongen i Juda.
18 Then Asa took all the silver and gold left in the storerooms in the house of Yahweh, and the storerooms of the king's palace. He put it into the hands of his servants and sent it to Ben Hadad son of Tabrimmon son of Hezion, the king of Aram, who lived in Damascus. He said,
Då tok Asa alt det sylv og gull som var att i skattkammeri i Herrens hus og i skattkammeret i kongsgarden og lagde det i handi åt tenarane sine; so sende han dei til Benhadad, son åt Tabrimmon Hezjonsson, syrarkongen, som budde i Damaskus, med dei ordi:
19 “Let there be a covenant between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Look, I have sent to you a gift of silver and gold. Break your covenant with Baasha king of Israel, so that he may leave me alone.”
«Det er eit samband millom meg og deg, sameleis som millom far min og far din. Her sender eg deg ei gåva i sylv og gull. Gjer no vel og brjot sambandet ditt med Basea, Israels-kongen, so han lyt draga burt ifrå meg!»
20 Ben Hadad listened to King Asa and sent the commanders of his armies, and they attacked the cities of Israel. They attacked Ijon, Dan, Abel of Beth Maacah, and all Kinnereth, together with all the land of Naphtali.
Og Benhadad lydde kong Asa og sende herførarane sine imot byarne i Israel og herja Ijon, Dan, Abel-Bet-Ma’aka og heile Kinnerot umfram heile Naftalilandet.
21 It came about that when Baasha heard this, he stopped building up Ramah and went back to Tirzah.
Då Basea no høyrde det, slutta han med borgbyggjingi i Rama og heldt seg sidan i ro i Tirsa.
22 Then King Asa made a proclamation to all Judah. No one was exempted. They carried away the stones and timbers of Ramah with which Baasha had been building up the city. Then King Asa used that building material to build up Geba of Benjamin and Mizpah.
Men kong Asa baud ut heile Juda - ikkje ein var friteken - og dei tok burt steinar og trevyrke som Basea hadde bruka til byggverket i Rama; og med det gjorde no kong Asa Geba i Benjamin og Mispa til borgbyar.
23 As for the other matters of Asa, all his might, all that he did, and the cities he built, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah? But during his old age he was diseased in his feet.
Det som elles er å fortelja um Asa, um alle storverki hans og alt han gjorde, um byarne som han bygde, det er uppskrive i krønikeboki åt Juda-kongarne. Men på sine gamle dagar fekk han ein sjukdom i føterne.
24 Then Asa slept with his ancestors and was buried with them in the city of David his father. Jehoshaphat his son became king in his place.
Og Asa lagde seg til kvile hjå federne sine og vart gravlagd hjå federne sine i byen åt David, far sin. Og Josafat, son hans, vart konge i staden hans.
25 Nadab son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah; he reigned over Israel two years.
Nadab Jerobeamsson vart konge i Israel i det andre styringsåret åt Juda-kongen Asa og rådde yver Israel i tvo år.
26 He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh and walked in the way of his father, and in his own sin, by which he led Israel to sin.
Han gjorde det som vondt var i Herrens augo og stemnde fram på vegen til far sin og i den synd som han hadde fenge Israel til å gjera.
27 Baasha son of Ahijah, of the family of Issachar, conspired against Nadab; Baasha killed him down at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines, for Nadab and all Israel were laying siege to Gibbethon.
Men Basea Ahiason av Issakars hus fekk til ei samansverjing imot honom, og Basea slo honom i hel ved Gibbeton, som høyrde filistarane til; Nadab med heile Israel heldt då på å kringsette Gibbeton.
28 In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha killed Nadab and became king in his place.
Basea drap honom i det tridje styringsåret åt Juda-kongen Asa, og han vart so konge i staden hans.
29 As soon as he was king, Baasha killed all the family of Jeroboam. He left none of Jeroboam's descendants breathing; in this way he destroyed his royal line, just as Yahweh had spoken by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite,
Og då han var konge vorten, slo han i hel heile Jerobeams hus; han let det ikkje vera att ei livande sjæl av Jerobeams hus, men gjorde ende på, etter det ord som Herren hadde tala ved tenaren sin, siloniten Ahia;
30 for the sins of Jeroboam which he committed and by which he led Israel to sin, because he provoked Yahweh, the God of Israel, to anger.
det var for dei synder skuld som Jerobeam hadde gjort, og som han hadde fenge Israel til å gjera, og for di han soleis hadde harma Herren, Israels Gud.
31 As for the other matters concerning Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?
Det som elles er å fortelja um Nadab og um alt det han gjorde, det er uppskrive i krønikeboki åt Israels-kongarne.
32 There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
Millom Asa og Basea, kongen i Israel, var det ufred so lenge dei livde.
33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha son of Ahijah began to reign over all Israel in Tirzah and he reigned twenty-four years.
I det tridje styringsåret åt Juda-kongen Asa vart Basea Ahiason konge yver heile Israel i Tirsa, og det var han i fire og tjuge år.
34 He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh and walked in the way of Jeroboam and in his sin by which he led Israel to sin.
Han gjorde det som vondt var i Herrens augo, og stemnde fram på Jerobeams veg og i den synd som han hadde fenge Israel til å gjera.
