2 Kings 15

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

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

2 He was sixteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jecoliah 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 He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.

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

4 However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.

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

5 The LORD struck the king, so that he was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house. Jotham, the king’s son, was over the household, 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 Now the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, aren’t they 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 Azariah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in David’s city; and Jotham his son reigned in his place.

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-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah, Zechariah the son of Jeroboam reigned 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 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, as his fathers had done. He didn’t depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he 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 Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and struck him before the people and killed him, and reigned in his place.

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

11 Now the rest of the acts of Zechariah, 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 LORD’s word which he spoke to Jehu, saying, “Your sons to the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.” 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 thirty-ninth year of Uzziah king of Judah, and he reigned for a 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 Menahem the son of Gadi went up from Tirzah, came to Samaria, struck Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria, killed him, and reigned in his place.

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 Now 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 attacked Tiphsah and all who were in it and its border areas, from Tirzah. He attacked it because they didn’t open their gates to him, and he ripped up all their women who were with child.

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 thirty ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem the son of Gadi began to reign over Israel for 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 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight. He didn’t depart all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he 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 Pul the king of Assyria came against the land, and Menahem gave Pul one 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 Menahem exacted the money from Israel, even from all the mighty men of wealth, from each man fifty shekels of silver, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back, and didn’t stay 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 Now the rest of the acts of Menahem, and all that he did, aren’t they 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 Menahem slept with his fathers, and Pekahiah his son reigned in his place.

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 for two years.

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

24 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight. He didn’t depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he 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 Pekah the son of Remaliah, his captain, conspired against him and attacked him in Samaria, in the fortress of the king’s house, with Argob and Arieh; and with him were fifty men of the Gileadites. He killed him, and reigned in his place.

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 Now 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 fifty-second year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekah the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria for 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 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight. He didn’t depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he 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, Tiglath Pileser king of Assyria came and took Ijon, Abel Beth Maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, Gilead, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali; and he 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 Hoshea the son of Elah made a conspiracy against Pekah the son of Remaliah, attacked him, killed him, and reigned in his place, 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 Now 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, Jotham the son of Uzziah king of Judah began to reign.

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

33 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. 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 He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes. 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 However the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places. He built the upper gate of the LORD’s house.

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, aren’t they 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 Rezin the king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah against Judah.

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

38 Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in his father David’s city; and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.

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.
