2 Kongebok 15

1 I Israels konge Jeroboams syv og tyvende år blev Asarja, sønn av Judas konge Amasja, konge.

In the twenty-seventh year of the rule of Jeroboam, king of Israel, Azariah, son of Amaziah, became king of Judah.

2 Han var seksten år gammel da han blev konge, og regjerte to og femti år i Jerusalem; hans mor hette Jekolja og var fra Jerusalem.

He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for fifty-two years; his mother's name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.

3 Han gjorde hvad rett var i Herrens øine, aldeles som hans far Amasja hadde gjort.

And he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Amaziah had done.

4 Dog blev offerhaugene ikke nedlagt; folket blev ved å ofre og brenne røkelse på haugene.

But he did not take away the high places, and the people still went on making offerings and burning them in the high places.

5 Og Herren slo kongen, så han blev spedalsk til sin dødsdag, og han bodde i et hus for sig selv; og Jotam, kongens sønn, forestod kongens hus og dømte landets folk.

And the Lord sent disease on the king and he became a leper, and to the day of his death he was living separately in his private house. And Jotham his son was over his house, judging the people of the land.

6 Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Asarja og om alt det han gjorde, det er opskrevet i Judas kongers krønike.

Now the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?

7 Og Asarja la sig til hvile hos sine fedre, og de begravde ham hos hans fedre i Davids stad, og hans sønn Jotam blev konge i hans sted.

And Azariah went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Jotham his son became king in his place.

8 I Judas konge Asarjas åtte og trettiende år blev Sakarja, Jeroboams sønn, konge over Israel i Samaria, og han regjerte i seks måneder.

In the thirty-eighth year of Azaliah, king of Judah, Zechariah, son of Jeroboam, was king over Israel for six months.

9 Han gjorde hvad ondt var i Herrens øine, likesom hans fedre hadde gjort; han vek ikke fra Jeroboams, Nebats sønns synder, som han hadde fått Israel til å gjøre.

And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father had done, not turning away from the sin which Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, did and made Israel do.

10 Og Sallum, sønn av Jabes, fikk i stand en sammensvergelse mot ham og slo ham ihjel i folkets påsyn og blev konge i hans sted.

And Shallum, the son of Jabesh, made a secret design against him, and, attacking him in Ibleam, put him to death and became king in his place.

11 Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Sakarja, det er opskrevet i Israels kongers krønike.

Now the rest of the acts of Zechariah are recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel.

12 Således gikk det ord i opfyllelse som Herren hadde talt til Jehu; han hadde sagt: Dine sønner skal sitte på Israels trone til fjerde ledd. Og så blev det.

This was what the Lord had said to Jehu, Your sons to the fourth generation will be kings of Israel. And so it came about.

13 Sallum, sønn av Jabes, blev konge i Judas konge Ussias' ni og trettiende år og regjerte en måneds tid i Samaria.

Shallum, the son of Jabesh, became king in the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah, king of Judah; and he was ruling in Samaria for the space of one month.

14 Da drog Menahem, Gadis sønn, op fra Tirsa og kom til Samaria og slo Sallum, Jabes' sønn, ihjel i Samaria og blev konge i hans sted.

Then Menahem, the son of Gadi, went up from Tirzah and came to Samaria, and attacking Shallum, son of Jabesh, in Samaria, put him to death and made himself king in his place.

15 Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Sallum og om den sammensvergelse han fikk i stand, det er opskrevet i Israels kongers krønike.

Now the rest of the acts of Shallum, and the secret design which he made, are recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel.

16 På den tid drog Menahem ut fra Tirsa og herjet Tifsah med alt der var, og hele det tilhørende land. Det var fordi byen ikke hadde åpnet portene for ham, han herjet den; alle dets fruktsommelige kvinner lot han opskjære.

Then Menahem sent destruction on Tappuah and all the people in it, and its limits, from Tirzah, because they would not let him come in; and he had all the women who were with child cut open.

17 I Judas konge Asarjas ni og trettiende år blev Menahem, Gadis sønn, konge over Israel i Samaria, og han regjerte i ti år.

In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah, king of Judah, Menahem, the son of Gadi, became king over Israel, and was ruling in Samaria for ten years.

18 Han gjorde hvad ondt var i Herrens øine; han vek ikke, så lenge han levde, fra Jeroboams, Nebats sønns synder, som han hadde fått Israel til å gjøre.

He did evil in the eyes of the Lord; he did not keep himself from the sin which Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, did and made Israel do.

19 Kongen i Assyria Ful falt inn i landet; da gav Menahem Ful tusen talenter sølv forat han skulde holde med ham og trygge kongedømmet i hans hånd.

In his day, Pul, the king of Assyria, came up against the land; and Menahem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver so that he might let him keep the kingdom.

20 Og Menahem fikk de penger han skulde gi til kongen i Assyria, inn ved å legge skatt på Israel, på alle rikmenn, femti sekel på hver. Så vendte kongen i Assyria tilbake og blev ikke lenger i landet.

And Menahem got the money from Israel, from all the men of wealth, fifty silver shekels from every man, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria went back without stopping in the land.

21 Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Menahem og om alt det han gjorde, det er opskrevet i Israels kongers krønike.

Now the rest of the acts of Menahem, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?

22 Og Menahem la sig til hvile hos sine fedre, og hans sønn Pekahja blev konge i hans sted.

And Menahem went to rest with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son became king in his place.

23 I Judas konge Asarjas femtiende år blev Pekahja, Menahems sønn, konge over Israel i Samaria, og han regjerte i to år.

In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekahiah, the son of Menahem, became king over Israel in Samaria, ruling for two years.

24 Han gjorde hvad ondt var i Herrens øine; han vek ikke fra Jeroboams, Nebats sønns synder, som han hadde fått Israel til å gjøre.

He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, not turning from the sin which Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, did and made Israel do.

25 Og Pekah, sønn av hans høvedsmann Remalja, fikk i stand en sammensvergelse mot ham og slo ham ihjel i Samaria i borgen i kongens hus og tillike Argob og Arje; han hadde med sig femti mann av gileadittene; og da han hadde drept ham, blev han konge i hans sted.

And Pekah, the son of Remaliah, his captain, made a secret design against him, attacking him in the king's great house in Samaria; and with him were fifty men of Gilead; and he put him to death and became king in his place.

26 Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Pekahja og om alt det han gjorde, det er opskrevet i Israels kongers krønike.

Now the rest of the acts of Pekahiah, and all he did, are recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel.

In the fifty-second year of Azariah, king of Judah, Pekah, the son of Remaliah, became king over Israel in Samaria, ruling for twenty years.

28 Han gjorde hvad ondt var i Herrens øine; han vek ikke fra Jeroboams, Nebats sønns synder, som han hadde fått Israel til å gjøre.

He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, not turning from the sin which Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, did and made Israel do.

29 I Israels konge Pekahs dager kom kongen i Assyria Tiglat-Pileser og tok Ijon og Abel-Bet-Ma'aka og Janoah og Kedes og Hasor og Gilead og Galilea, hele Naftalis land; og han bortførte innbyggerne til Assyria.

In the days of Pekah, king of Israel, Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, came and took Ijon and Abel-beth-maacah and Janoah and Kedesh and Hazor and Gilead and Galilee and all the land of Naphtali; and he took the people away to Assyria.

30 Og Hosea, Elas sønn, fikk i stand en sammensvergelse mot Pekah, Remaljas sønn, og slo ham ihjel og blev konge i hans sted i Jotams, Ussias' sønns tyvende år.

And Hoshea, the son of Elah, made a secret design against Pekah, the son of Remaliah, and, attacking him, put him to death and became king in his place, in the twentieth year of Jotham, the son of Uzziah.

31 Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Pekah og om alt det han gjorde, det er opskrevet i Israels kongers krønike.

Now the rest of the acts of Pekah, and all he did, are recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel.

He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he was ruling for sixteen years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.

34 Han gjorde hvad rett var i Herrens øine; han gjorde aldeles som sin far Ussias.

And he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Uzziah had done.

35 Dog blev offerhaugene ikke nedlagt; folket blev ved å ofre og brenne røkelse på haugene. Det var han som bygget den øvre port i Herrens hus.

But he did not take away the high places, and the people still went on making offerings and burning them in the high places. He was the builder of the higher doorway of the house of the Lord.

36 Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Jotam og om alt det han gjorde, det er opskrevet i Judas kongers krønike.

Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?

37 I de dager begynte Herren å sende kongen i Syria Resin og Pekah, Remaljas sønn, mot Juda.

In those days the Lord first sent against Judah, Rezin, the king of Aram, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah.
