2 Kungaboken 14
1 Uti andro årena Joas, Joahas sons, Israels Konungs, vardt Amazia Konung, Joas, Juda. Konungs, son.
In the second year of Joas son of Joachaz, king of Israel, reigned Amasias son of Joas king of Juda.
2 Fem och tjugu åra gammal var han, då han vardt Konung; och regerade nio och tjugu år i Jerusalem; hans moder het Joaddan af Jerusalem.
He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and nine and twenty years he reigned in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Joadan of Jerusalem.
3 Och han gjorde det Herranom väl behagade; dock icke såsom hans fader David, utan såsom hans fader Joas gjort hade, så gjorde han ock.
And he did that which was right before the Lord, but yet not like David his father. He did according to all things that Joas his father did:
4 Ty höjderna vordo icke aflagda; utan folket offrade och rökte ännu på höjderna.
But this only, that he took not away the high places: for yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
5 Då han nu var mägtig vorden i riket, slog han sina tjenare, som Konungen hans fader dräpit hade.
And when he had possession of the kingdom, he put his servants to death that had slain the king his father:
6 Men dråparenas barn drap han icke; såsom ock skrifvet är i Mose lagbok, der Herren budit hade, och sagt: Fäderna skola icke dö för barnens skull, och barnen skola icke dö för fädernas skull; utan hvar och en skall dö för sina synd.
But the children of the murderers he did not put to death, according to that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the Lord commanded, saying: The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: but every man shall die for his own sins.
7 Han slog desslikes de Edomeer i saltdalenom, tiotusend, och vann den staden Sela med strid; och kallade honom Joktheel, allt intill denna dag.
He slew of Edom in the valley of the Saltpits ten thousand men, and took the rock by war, and called the name thereof Jectehel, unto this day.
8 Då sände Amazia båd till Joas, Joahas son, Jehu sons, Israels Konung, och lät säga honom: Kom hit, och låt oss se hvarannan.
Then Amasias sent messengers to Joas son of Joachaz, son of Jehu king of Israel, saying: Come let us see one another.
9 Men Joas, Israels Konung, sände till Amazia, Juda Konung, och lät säga honom: Törnebusken, som i Libanon är, sände till cedreträt i Libanon, och sade: Gif dina dotter minom son till hustru; men vilddjuret på markene i Libanon lopp öfver törnebuskan, och förtrampade honom,
And Joas king of Israel sent again to Amasias king of Juda, saying: A thistle of Libanus sent to a cedar tree, which is in Libanus, saying: Give thy daughter to my son to wife. And the beasts of the forest, that are in Libanus, passed and trod down the thistle.
10 Du hafver slagit de Edomeer, deraf förhäfver sig ditt hjerta; behåll den prisen, och blif hemma; hvi söker du efter olycko, att du må falla, och Juda med dig?
Thou hast beaten and prevailed over Edom, and thy heart hath lifted thee up: be content with the glory, and sit at home: why provokest thou evil, that thou shouldst fall, and Juda with thee?
11 Men Amazia hörde honom intet. Så drog Joas, Israels Konung, upp; och de besågo hvarannan, han och Amazia, Juda Konung, i BethSemes, som i Juda ligger.
But Amasias did not rest satisfied. So Joas king of Israel went up, and he and Amasias king of Juda saw one another in Bethsames a town in Juda.
12 Men Juda vardt slagen för Israel, så att hvar och en flydde i sina hyddo.
And Juda was put to the worst before Israel, and they fled every man to their dwellings.
13 Och Joas, Israels Konung, grep Amazia, Juda Konung, Joas son, Ahasia sons, i BethSemes; och kom till Jerusalem, och ref omkull, murarna i, Jerusalem, ifrån Ephraims port, allt intill hörnporten, fyrahundrad alnar långt.
But Joas king of Israel took Amasias, king of Juda the son of Joas, the son of Ochozias, in Bethsames, and brought him into Jerusalem: and he broke down the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim to the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.
14 Och tog allt det guld och silfver, och tyg, som funnet vardt i Herrans hus, och i Konungshusens fatebur, dertill barnen, till pant; och drog åter till Samarien.
And he took all the gold, and silver, and all the vessels, that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the king’s treasures, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.
15 Hvad nu mer af Joas sägande är, det han gjort hafver, och hans magt, och huru han med Amazia, Juda Konung, stridde, si, det är skrifvet uti Israels Konungars Chrönico.
But the rest of the acts of Joas, which he did, and his valour, wherewith he fought against Amasias king of Juda, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
16 Och Joas afsomnade med sina fader, och vardt begrafven i Samarien ibland Israels Konungar; och hans son Jerobeam vardt Konung i hans stad.
And Joas slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria, with the kings of Israel: and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.
17 Men Amazia. Joas son, Juda Konungs, lefde efter Joas död, Joahas sons, Israels Konungs, i femton år.
And Amasias the son of Joas king of Juda lived, after the death of Joas son of Joachaz king of Israel fifteen years.
18 Hvad nu mer af Amazia sägandes är, det är skrifvet uti Juda Konungars Chrönico.
And the rest of the acts of Amasias, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
19 Och de gjorde ett förbund emot honom i Jerusalem; men han flydde till Lachis. Och de sände efter honom till Lachis, och dråpo honom der.
Now they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: and he fled to Lachis. And they sent after him to Lachis, and killed him there.
20 Och de förde honom dädan på hästar; och han vardt begrafven i Jerusalem, när sina fäder uti Davids stad.
And they brought him away upon horses, and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.
21 Och hela Juda folk togo Asaria, uti lians sextonde äre, och gjorde honom till Konung i hans faders Amazia stad.
And all the people of Juda took Azarias, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amasias.
22 Han byggde Elath, och fick det igen under Juda, sedan Konungen med hans fäder afsomnad var.
He built Elath, and restored it to Juda, after that the king slept with his fathers.
23 Uti femtonde årena Amazia, Joas sons, Juda Konungs, vardt Jerobeam, Joas son, Konung öfver Israel i Samarien, ett och fyratio år,
In the fifteenth year of Amasias son of Joas king of Juda, reigned Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel in Samaria, one and forty years:
24 Och gjorde det ondt varför Herranom, och öfvergaf icke alla Jerobeams, Nebats sons, synder, den Israel kom till att synda.
And he did that which was evil before the Lord. He departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.
25 Men han tog igen Israels gränsor, ifrå Hamath allt intill hafvet, som ligger i hedmarkene, efter Herrans Israels Guds ord, som han sagt hade genom, sin tjenare Propheten Jona, Amitthai son, som var af GathHepher.
He restored the borders of Israel from the entrance of Emath, unto the sea of the wilderness, according to the word of the Lord the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonas the son of Amathi, the prophet, who was of Geth, which is in Opher.
26 Ty Herren såg till Israels svåra jämmer, så att ock de innelyckte och igenlefde förgingos; och ingen hjelpare var i Israel.
For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel that it was exceeding bitter, and that they were consumed even to them that were shut up in prison, and the lowest persons, and that there was no one to help Israel.
27 Och Herren hade icke sagt, att han ville utskrapa Israels namn under himmelen; utan halp dem genom Jerobeam, Joas son.
And the Lord did not say that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joas.
28 Hvad nu mer af Jerobeam sägandes är, och allt det han gjort hafver, och hans magt, huru han stridt hafver, och huru han igenfick Damascon och Hamath till Juda i Israel, si, det är skrifvet i Israels Konungars Chrönico.
But the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his velour, wherewith he fought, and how he restored Damascus, and Emath to Juda in Israel, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
29 Och Jerobeam afsomnade med sina fäder, Israels Konungar; och hans son Zacharia vardt Konung i hans stad.
And Jeroboam slept with his fathers the kings of Israel, and Zacharias his son reigned in his stead.
