2 Kings 15

1 In the twenty and seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel began Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah to reign.

I Kong Jeroboam af Israels syvogtyvende Regeringsår blev Azarja, Amazjas Søn, Konge over Juda.

2 Sixteen years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned two and fifty years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jecholiah of Jerusalem.

Han var seksten År gammel, da han blev Konge, og han herskede to og halvtredsindstyve År i Jerusalem. Hans Moder hed Jekolja og var fra Jerusalem.

3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Amaziah had done;

Han gjorde, hvad der var ret i HERRENs Øjne, ganske som hans Fader Amazja.

4 Except that the high places were not removed: the people sacrificed and burnt incense still on the high places.

Kun forsvandt Offerhøjeneikke, men Folket blev ved med at ofre og tænde Offerild på Højene,

5 And the LORD smote the king, so that he was a leper to the day of his death, and dwelt in a separate house. And Jotham the king’s son was over the house, judging the people of the land.

Men HERREN ramte Kongen, så han blev spedalsk til sin Dødedag; og han fik Lov at blive boende i sit Hus, medens Kongens Søn Jotam rådede i Paladset og dømte Folket i Landet.

6 And the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Azarja, alt, hvad han udførte, står jo optegnet i Judas Kongers Krønike.

7 So Azariah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.

Så jagde han sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre, og man jordede ham hos hans Fædre i Davidsbyen; og hans Søn Jotam blev Konge i hans Sted.

8 In the thirty and eighth year of Azariah king of Judah did Zachariah the son of Jeroboam reign over Israel in Samaria six months.

I Kong Azarja af Judas otte og tredivte Regeringsår blev Zekarja, Jeroboams Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede seks Måneder i Samaria.

9 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as his fathers had done: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, ligesom hans Fædre, og han veg ikke fra de Synder, Jeroboam Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til.

10 And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and smote him before the people, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.

Men Sjallum, Jabesjs Søn, stiftede en Sammensværgelse modham, huggede ham ned og dræbte ham i Jibleam og blev Konge i hans Sted.

11 And the rest of the acts of Zachariah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Zekarja, står optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

12 This was the word of the LORD which he spoke to Jehu, saying, Thy sons shall sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation. And so it came to pass.

Således opfyldtes det Ord HERREN havde talet til Jehu, da han sagde: "Dine Sønner skal sidde på Israels Trone indtil fjerde Led." Således gik det.

13 Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the nine and thirtieth year of Uzziah king of Judah; and he reigned a full month in Samaria.

I Kong Uzzija af Judas ni og tredivte Regeringsår blev Sjallum, Jabesjs Søn, Konge, og han herskede en Måneds Tid i Samaria.

14 For Menahem the son of Gadi went up from Tirzah, and came to Samaria, and smote Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.

Da drog Menahem, Gadis Søn, op fra Tirza til Samaria, og der huggede han Sjallum, Jabesjs Søn, ned og dræbte ham og blev Konge i hans Sted.

15 And the rest of the acts of Shallum, and his conspiracy which he made, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Sjallum og den Sammensværgelse, han stiftede, står optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

16 Then Menahem smote Tiphsah, and all that were there, and its land from Tirzah: because they opened not to him, therefore he smote it; and all the women there that were with child he ripped up.

Fra Tirza hærgede Menahem ved den Tid Tappua og alt, hvad der var deri, og hele dets Område, fordi de ikke havde åbnet Portene for ham; derfor hærgede han det og lod Livet rive op på alle frugtsommelige Kvinder der.

17 In the nine and thirtieth year of Azariah king of Judah began Menahem the son of Gadi to reign over Israel, and reigned ten years in Samaria.

I Kong Azarja af Judas ni og tredivte Regeringsår blev Menahem, Gadis Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede ti År i Samaria.

18 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, og veg ikke fra nogen af de Synder, Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til. I hans Dage

19 And Pul the king of Assyria came against the land: and Menahem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver, that his hand might be with him to confirm the kingdom in his hand.

faldt Kong Pul af Assyrien ind i Landet. Men Menahem gav Pul 1000 Talenter Sølv, for at han skulde støtfe ham og sikre ham Magten;

20 And Menahem exacted the money of Israel, even of all the mighty men of wealth, of each man fifty shekels of silver, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back, and stayed not there in the land.

Menahem inddrev disse Penge hos Israel, hos alle de velhavende, halvtredsindstyve Sekel Sølv hos hver, for at udbetale dem til Assyrerkongen. Så vendte Assyrerkongen hjem og blev ikke længer der i Landet.

21 And the rest of the acts of Menahem, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Menahem, alt, hvad han udførte, står jo optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

22 And Menahem slept with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son reigned in his stead.

Så lagde Menahem sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre, og hans Søn Pekaja blev Konge i hans Sted.

23 In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekahiah the son of Menahem began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned two years.

I Kong Azarja af Judas halvtredsindstyvende Regeringsår blev Pekaja, Menahems Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede to År i Samaria.

24 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, og veg ikke fra de Synder, Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til.

25 But Pekah the son of Remaliah, a captain of his, conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the palace of the king’s house, with Argob and Arieh, and with him fifty men of the Gileadites: and he killed him, and reigned in his stead.

Men hans Høvedsmand Peka, Remaljas Søn, stiftede en Sammensværgelse mod ham, og fulgt af halvtredsindstyve gileaditiske Mænd huggede han ham ned i Samada i Kongeborgen..., og efter at have dræbt ham blev han Konge i hans Sted.

26 And the rest of the acts of Pekahiah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Pekaja, alt, hvad han udførte, står optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

27 In the two and fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekah the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned twenty years.

I Kong Azarja af Judas to og halvtredsindstyvende Regeringsår blev Peka, Remaljas Søn, Konge over Israel, og han herskede tyve År i Samaria.

28 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, og veg ikke fra de Synder, Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, havde forledt Israel til.

29 In the days of Pekah king of Israel came Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, and took Ijon, and Abelbethmaachah, and Janoah, and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali, and carried them captive to Assyria.

I Kong Peka af Israels Dage kom Assyrerkongen Tiglat-Pileser og indtog Ijjon, Abel-Bet-Ma'aka, Ianoa, Kedesj, Hazor, Gilead og Galilæa, hele Naftalis Land, og førte Indbyggerne bort til Assyrien.

30 And Hoshea the son of Elah made a conspiracy against Pekah the son of Remaliah, and smote him, and slew him, and reigned in his stead, in the twentieth year of Jotham the son of Uzziah.

Men Hosea, Elas' Søn, stiftede en Sammensværgelse mod Peka, Remaljas Søn, huggede ham ned og dræbteham; og han blev Konge i hans Sted i Jotams, Uzzijas Søns, tyvende Regeringsår.

31 And the rest of the acts of Pekah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Peka, alt, hvad han udførte, står optegnet i Israels Kongers Krønike.

32 In the second year of Pekah the son of Remaliah king of Israel began Jotham the son of Uzziah king of Judah to reign.

I Remaljas Søns, Kong Peka af Israels, andet Regeringsår blev Jotam, Azarjas Søn, Konge over Juda.

33 Five and twenty years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.

Han var fem og tyve År gammel, da han blev Konge, og han herskede seksten År i Jerusalem. Hans Moder hed Jerusja og var en Datter af Zadok.

34 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD: he did according to all that his father Uzziah had done.

Han gjorde, hvad der var ret i HERRENs Øjne, ganske som hans Fader Uzzija.

35 Yet the high places were not removed: the people sacrificed and burned incense still in the high places. He built the higher gate of the house of the LORD.

Kun forsvandt Offerhøjene ikke, men Folket blev ved med at ofre og tænde Offerild på Højene. Det var ham, der lod Øvreporten i HERRENs Hus opføre.

36 Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Jotam, alt, hvad han udførte, står jo optegnet i Judas Kongers Krønike.

37 In those days the LORD began to send against Judah Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah.

På den Tid begyndte HERREN at lade Kong Rezin af Aram og Peka, Remaljas Søn, angribe Juda.

38 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.

Så lagde Jotam sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre, og han blev jordet hos sine Fædre i sin Fader Davids By; og hans Søn Akaz blev Konge i hans Sted.
