I Regum 16

1 factus est autem sermo Domini ad Hieu filium Anani contra Baasa dicens

And a word of Jehovah is unto Jehu son of Hanani, against Baasha, saying,

2 pro eo quod exaltavi te de pulvere et posui ducem super populum meum Israhel tu autem ambulasti in via Hieroboam et peccare fecisti populum meum Israhel ut me inritares in peccatis eorum

'Because that I have raised thee up out of the dust, and appoint thee leader over My people Israel, and thou walkest in the way of Jeroboam, and causest My people Israel to sin — to provoke Me to anger with their sins;

3 ecce ego demetam posteriora Baasa et posteriora domus eius et faciam domum tuam sicut domum Hieroboam filii Nabath

lo, I am putting away the posterity of Baasha, even the posterity of his house, and have given up thy house as the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat;

4 qui mortuus fuerit de Baasa in civitate comedent eum canes et qui mortuus fuerit ex eo in regione comedent eum volucres caeli

him who dieth of Baasha in a city do the dogs eat, and him who dieth of his in a field do fowl of the heavens eat.'

5 reliqua autem sermonum Baasa et quaecumque fecit et proelia eius nonne haec scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Israhel

And the rest of the matters of Baasha, and that which he did, and his might, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?

6 dormivit ergo Baasa cum patribus suis sepultusque est in Thersa et regnavit Hela filius eius pro eo

And Baasha lieth with his fathers, and is buried in Tirzah, and Elah his son reigneth in his stead.

7 cum autem in manu Hieu filii Anani prophetae verbum Domini factum esset contra Baasa et contra domum eius et contra omne malum quod fecerat coram Domino ad inritandum eum in operibus manuum suarum ut fieret sicut domus Hieroboam ob hanc causam occidit eum

And also by the hand of Jehu son of Hanani the prophet a word of Jehovah hath been concerning Baasha, and concerning his house, and concerning all the evil that he did in the eyes of Jehovah to provoke Him to anger with the work of his hands, to be like the house of Jeroboam, and concerning that for which he smote him.

8 anno vicesimo sexto Asa regis Iuda regnavit Hela filius Baasa super Israhel in Thersa duobus annis

In the twenty and sixth year of Asa king of Judah reigned hath Elah son of Baasha over Israel in Tirzah, two years;

9 et rebellavit contra eum servus suus Zamri dux mediae partis equitum erat autem Hela in Thersa bibens et temulentus in domo Arsa praefecti Thersa

and conspire against him doth his servant Zimri (head of the half of the chariots) and he [is] in Tirzah drinking — a drunkard in the house of Arza, who [is] over the house in Tirzah.

10 inruens ergo Zamri percussit et occidit eum anno vicesimo septimo Asa regis Iuda et regnavit pro eo

And Zimri cometh in and smiteth him, and putteth him to death, in the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigneth in his stead;

11 cumque regnasset et sedisset super solium eius percussit omnem domum Baasa et non dereliquit ex eo mingentem ad parietem et propinquos et amicos eius

and it cometh to pass in his reigning, at his sitting on his throne, he hath smitten the whole house of Baasha; he hath not left to him any sitting on the wall, and of his redeemers, and of his friends.

12 delevitque Zamri omnem domum Baasa iuxta verbum Domini quod locutus fuerat ad Baasa in manu Hieu prophetae

And Zimri destroyeth the whole house of Baasha, according to the word of Jehovah, that He spake concerning Baasha, by the hand of Jehu the prophet:

13 propter universa peccata Baasa et peccata Hela filii eius qui peccaverunt et peccare fecerunt Israhel provocantes Dominum Deum Israhel in vanitatibus suis

concerning all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, that they sinned, and that they caused Israel to sin to provoke Jehovah, God of Israel, with their vanities.

14 reliqua autem sermonum Hela et omnia quae fecit nonne haec scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Israhel

And the rest of the matters of Elah, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?

15 anno vicesimo et septimo Asa regis Iuda regnavit Zamri septem diebus in Thersa porro exercitus obsidebat Gebbethon urbem Philisthinorum

In the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah, reigned hath Zimri seven days in Tirzah; and the people are encamping against Gibbethon, which [is] to the Philistines;

16 cumque audisset rebellasse Zamri et occidisse regem fecit sibi regem omnis Israhel Amri qui erat princeps militiae super Israhel in die illa in castris

and the people who are encamping hear, saying, 'Zimri hath conspired, and also hath smitten the king;' and all Israel cause Omri head of the host to reign over Israel on that day in the camp.

17 ascendit ergo Amri et omnis Israhel cum eo de Gebbethon et obsidebant Thersa

And Omri goeth up, and all Israel with him, from Gibbethon, and they lay siege to Tirzah.

18 videns autem Zamri quod expugnanda esset civitas ingressus est palatium et succendit secum domum regiam et mortuus est

And it cometh to pass, at Zimri's seeing that the city hath been captured, that he cometh in unto a high place of the house of the king, and burneth over him the house of the king with fire, and dieth,

19 in peccatis suis quae peccaverat faciens malum coram Domino et ambulans in via Hieroboam et in peccato eius quo fecit peccare Israhel

for his sins that he sinned, to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, to walk in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin that he did, to cause Israel to sin;

20 reliqua autem sermonum Zamri et insidiarum eius et tyrannidis nonne haec scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Israhel

and the rest of the matters of Zimri, and his conspiracy that he made, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?

21 tunc divisus est populus Israhel in duas partes media pars populi sequebatur Thebni filium Gineth ut constitueret eum regem et media pars Amri

Then are the sons of Israel parted into halves; half of the people hath been after Tibni son of Ginath to cause him to reign, and the half after Omri;

22 praevaluit autem populus qui erat cum Amri populo qui sequebatur Thebni filium Gineth mortuusque est Thebni et regnavit Amri

and stronger are the people that are after Omri than the people that are after Tibni son of Ginath, and Tibni dieth, and Omri reigneth.

23 anno tricesimo primo Asa regis Iuda regnavit Amri super Israhel duodecim annis in Thersa regnavit sex annis

In the thirty and first year of Asa king of Judah reigned hath Omri over Israel twelve years; in Tirzah he hath reigned six years,

24 emitque montem Samariae a Somer duobus talentis argenti et aedificavit eam et vocavit nomen civitatis quam extruxerat nomine Somer domini montis Samariae

and he buyeth the mount Samaria from Shemer, with two talents of silver, and buildeth [on] the mount, and calleth the name of the city that he hath built by the name of Shemer, lord of the hill — Samaria.

25 fecit autem Amri malum in conspectu Domini et operatus est nequiter super omnes qui fuerant ante eum

And Omri doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and doth evil above all who [are] before him,

26 ambulavitque in omni via Hieroboam filii Nabath et in peccatis eius quibus peccare fecerat Israhel ut inritaret Dominum Deum Israhel in vanitatibus suis

and walketh in all the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and in his sin that he caused Israel to sin, to provoke Jehovah, God of Israel, with their vanities.

27 reliqua autem sermonum Amri et proelia eius quae gessit nonne haec scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Israhel

And the rest of the matters of Omri that he did, and his might that he got, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?

28 et dormivit Amri cum patribus suis et sepultus est in Samaria regnavitque Ahab filius eius pro eo

And Omri lieth with his fathers, and is buried in Samaria, and Ahab his son reigneth in his stead.

29 Ahab vero filius Amri regnavit super Israhel anno tricesimo octavo Asa regis Iuda et regnavit Ahab filius Amri super Israhel in Samaria viginti et duobus annis

And Ahab son of Omri hath reigned over Israel in the thirty and eighth year of Asa king of Judah, and Ahab son of Omri reigneth over Israel in Samaria twenty and two years,

30 et fecit Ahab filius Amri malum in conspectu Domini super omnes qui fuerunt ante eum

and Ahab son of Omri doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah above all who [are] before him.

31 nec suffecit ei ut ambularet in peccatis Hieroboam filii Nabath insuper duxit uxorem Hiezabel filiam Ethbaal regis Sidoniorum et abiit et servivit Baal et adoravit eum

And it cometh to pass — hath it been light his walking in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat? — then he taketh a wife, Jezebel daughter of Ethbaal, king of the Zidonians, and goeth and serveth Baal, and boweth himself to it,

32 et posuit aram Baal in templo Baal quod aedificaverat in Samaria

and raiseth up an altar for Baal, in the house of the Baal, that he built in Samaria;

33 et plantavit lucum et addidit Ahab in opere suo inritans Dominum Deum Israhel super omnes reges Israhel qui fuerant ante eum

and Ahab maketh the shrine, and Ahab addeth to do so as to provoke Jehovah, God of Israel, above all the kings of Israel who have been before him.

34 in diebus eius aedificavit Ahiel de Bethel Hiericho in Abiram primitivo suo fundavit eam et in Segub novissimo suo posuit portas eius iuxta verbum Domini quod locutus fuerat in manu Iosue filii Nun

In his days hath Hiel the Beth-Elite built Jericho; in Abiram his first-born he laid its foundation, and in Segub his youngest he set up its doors, according to the word of Jehovah that He spake by the hand of Joshua son of Nun.
