1 Kings 14
1 At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick.
Ved den Tid blev Jeroboams Søn Abija syg.
2 And Jeroboam said to his wife, Arise, I pray thee, and disguise thyself, that thou mayest not be known to be the wife of Jeroboam; and go to Shiloh: behold, there [is] Ahijah the prophet, who told me that [I should be] king over this people.
Da sagde Jeroboam til sin Hustru: "Tag og forklæd dig, så man ikke kan kende, at du er Jeroboams Hustru, og begiv dig til Silo, thi der bor Profeten Ahija, som kundgjorde mig, at jeg skulde blive Konge over dette Folk;
3 And take with thee ten loaves, and cracknels, and a cruse of honey, and go to him: he will tell thee what shall become of the child.
tag ti Brød, noget Bagværk og en Krukke Honning med og henvend dig til ham, så vil han sige dig, hvorledes det skal gå Drengen!"
4 And Jeroboam's wife did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah. But Ahijah could not see; for his eyes were set by reason of his age.
Jeroboams Hustru gjorde nu således; hun begav sig til Silo og gik ind i Ahijas Hus. Ahija kunde ikke se, da hans Øjne var sløve af Alderdom;
5 And the LORD said to Ahijah, Behold, the wife of Jeroboam cometh to ask a thing of thee for her son; for he [is] sick: thus and thus shalt thou say to her: for it shall be, when she cometh in, that she will feign herself [to be] another [woman].
men HERREN havde sagt til Ahija: "Se, Jeroboams Hustru kommer til dig for at høre sig for hos dig angående sin Søn, da han er syg; det og det skal du svare hende; men når hun kommer, er hun forklædt."
6 And it was [so], when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, that he said, Come in, thou wife of Jeroboam; why feignest thou thyself [to be] another? for I [am] sent to thee [with] heavy [tidings].
Da nu Ahija hørte Lyden af hendes Trin, som hun gik ind ad Døren, sagde han: "Kom kun ind, Jeroboams Hustru! Hvorfor er du forklædt? Mig er det pålagt at bringe dig en tung Tidende.
7 Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and made thee prince over my people Israel,
Gå hen og sig til Jeroboam: Så siger HERREN, Israels Gud: Jeg ophøjede dig af Folkets Midte og gjorde dig til Fyrste over mit Folk Israel
8 And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it to thee: and [yet] thou hast not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do [that] only [which was] right in my eyes;
og rev Riget fra Davids Hus og gav dig det; dog har du ikke været som min Tjener David, der holdt mine Bud og fulgte mig af hele sit Hjerte og kun gjorde, hvad der er ret i mine Øjne,
9 But hast done evil above all that were before thee: for thou hast gone and made thee other gods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and hast cast me behind thy back:
men du har handlet værre end alle dine Forgængere; du gik hen og krænkede mig og gjorde dig andre Guder og støbte Billeder, men mig kastede du bag din Ryg;
10 Therefore behold, I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam the males, [and] him that is shut up and left in Israel, and will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as a man taketh away dung, till it is all gone.
se, derfor vil jeg bringe Ulykke over Jeroboams Hus og udrydde hvert mandligt Væsen, hver og en af Jeroboams Slægt i Israel, og jeg vil feje Jeroboams Hus bort, som man fejer Skarn bort, til der ikke er Spor tilbage!
11 Him that dieth of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat: for the LORD hath spoken [it].
Den af Jeroboams Slægt, som dør i Byen, skal Hundene æde, og den, som dør på Marken, skal Himmelens Fugle æde, thi det er HERREN, der har talet!
12 Arise thou therefore, depart to thy own house: [and] when thy feet enter into the city, the child shall die.
Men gå nu hjem! Når din Fod betræder Byen, skal Barnet dø;
13 And all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found [some] good thing towards the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.
og hele Israel skal holde Dødeklage over ham og jorde ham, thi han er den eneste af Jeroboams Slægt, der skal komme i en Grav; thi hos ham fandtes dog noget, der vandt HERREN Israels Guds Behag inden for Jeroboams Slægt.
14 Moreover, the LORD shall raise him up a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam that day: but what? even now.
Men HERREN vil oprejse sig en Konge over Israel, der skal udrydde Jeroboams Hus på den Dag.
15 For the LORD will smite Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water, and he will root up Israel out of this good land, which he gave to their fathers, and will scatter them beyond the river, because they have made their groves, provoking the LORD to anger.
Men også siden vil HERREN slå Israel, så at de svajer hid og did som Sivet i Vandet, og rykke Israel op fra dette herlige Land, som han gav deres Fædre, og sprede dem hinsides Floden, fordi de har lavet sig Asjerastøtter og krænket HERREN;
16 And he will give up Israel because of the sins of Jeroboam, who sinned, and who made Israel to sin.
og han vil give Israel til Pris for de Synders Skyld, Jeroboam har begået og forledt Israel til."
17 And Jeroboam's wife arose, and departed, and came to Tirzah: [and] when she came to the threshhold of the door, the child died;
Da gav Jeroboams Hustru sig på Vej og kom til Tirza; og da hun betrådte Husets Tærskel, døde Drengen;
18 And they buried him; and all Israel mourned for him, according to the word of the LORD, which he spoke by the hand of his servant Ahijah the prophet.
og man jordede ham, og hele Israel holdt Dødeklage over ham efter det Ord, HERREN havde talet ved sin Tjener, Profeten Ahija.
19 And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he warred, and how he reigned, behold, they [are] written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Jeroboam, hvorledes han førte Krig, og hvorledes han herskede står jo optegnet i Israels kongers Krønike.
20 And the days which Jeroboam reigned [were] two and twenty years: and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his stead.
Jeroboams Regeringstid udgjorde to og tyve År. Så lagde han sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre, og hans Søn Nadab blev Konge i hans Sted.
21 And Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam [was] forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD chose out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mother's name [was] Naamah an Ammonitess.
Rehabeam, Salomos Søn, blev Kongei Juda. Rehabeam var een og fyrretyve År gammel, da han blev Konge, og han herskede sytten År i Jerusalem, den By, HERREN havde udvalgt af alle Israels Stammer for der at stedfæste sit Navn. Hans Moder var en ammonitisk Kvinde ved Navn Na'ama.
22 And Judah did evil in the sight of the LORD, and they provoked him to jealousy with their sins which they had committed, above all that their fathers had done.
Og Juda gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne, og med de Synder, de begik, vakte de hans Nidkærhed, mere end deres Fædre havde gjort.
23 For they also built for themselves high places, and images and groves, on every high hill, and under every green tree.
Også de byggede sig Offerhøje, Stenstøtter og Asjerastøtter på alle høje Steder og under alle grønne Træer;
24 And there were also sodomites in the land: [and] they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
ja, der var endog Mandsskøger i Landet. De øvede alle de Vederstyggeligheder, som var begået af de Folk, HERREN havde drevet bort foran Israeliterne.
25 And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, [that] Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem:
Men i Kong Rebabeams femte Regeringsår drog Ægypterkongen Sjisjak op imod Jerusalem
26 And he took away the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house; he even took away all; and he took away all the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
og tog Skattene i HERRENs Hus og i Kongens Palads; alt tog han, også de Guldskjolde, Salomo havde ladet lave.
27 And king Rehoboam made in their stead brazen shields, and committed [them] to the hands of the chief of the guard, who kept the door of the king's house.
Kong Rehabeam lod da i Stedet lave Kobberskjolde og gav dem i Forvaring hos Høvedsmændene for Livvagten, der holdt Vagt ved Indgangen til Kongens Palads;
28 And it was [so], when the king went into the house of the LORD, that the guard bore them, and brought them back into the guard chamber.
og hver Gang Kongen begav sig til HERRENs Hus, bentede Livvagten dem, og bagefter bragte de dem tilbage til Vagtstuen.
29 Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, 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 Rehabeam, alt, hvad han gjorde, står jo optegnet i Judas Kongers Krønike.
30 And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all [their] days.
Rehabeam og Jeroboam lå i Krig med hinanden hele Tiden.
31 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And his mother's name [was] Naamah an Ammonitess. And Abijam his son reigned in his stead.
Så lagde Rehabeam sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre og blev jordet hos sine Fædre i Davidsbyen. Hans Moder var en ammonitisk Kvinde ved Navn Na'ama. Og hans Søn Abija blev Konge i hans Sted.
