2 Krønikebok 36
1 Folket i landet tok Joahaz Josiason og gjorde honom til konge i Jerusalem i staden for far hans.
Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and they anointed him and made him king in his father's place in Jerusalem.
2 Tri og tjuge år gamall var Joahaz då han vart konge, og tri månader styrde han i Jerusalem.
Joahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
3 Men egyptarkongen sette honom av frå styret i Jerusalem og let landet bøta tvo hundrad og femti våger sylv og tvo og ein halv våg gull.
The king of Egypt deposed him at Jerusalem, and fined the land one hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
4 Og egyptarkongen gjorde Eljakim, bror hans, til konge yver Juda og Jerusalem, og han brigda namnet hans til Jojakim, Joahaz, bror hans derimot, tok Neko og førde til Egyptarland.
The king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. Neco took Joahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
5 Fem og tjuge år gamall var Jojakim då han vart konge, og elleve år styrde han i Jerusalem. Han gjorde det som vondt var for Herren, hans Gud.
Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH his God.
6 Nebukadnessar, kongen i Babel, drog upp imot honom, og batt honom med koparlekkjor og vilde føra honom til Babel.
Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
7 Og Nebukadnessar førde nokre av kjeraldi i Herrens hus til Babel og sette deim upp i templet sitt i Babel.
Nebuchadnezzar also carried of the vessels of the house of YHWH to Babylon, and put them in his temple at Babylon.
8 Det som elles er å fortelja um Jojakim og dei styggetingi som han gjorde, og anna vondt som fanst hjå honom, det er uppskrive i boki um Israels- og Juda-kongarne; Jojakin, son hans, vart konge i staden hans.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he did, and that which was found in him, look, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.
9 Attan år gamall var Jojakin då han vart konge, og tri månader og ti dagar styrde han i Jerusalem. Han gjorde det som vondt var i Herrens augo.
Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH.
10 Ved årsskiftet sende kong Nebukadnessar folk og førde honom til Babel saman med dei dyraste kjeraldi ifrå Herrens hus; og han gjorde Sidkia, bror hans, til konge yver Juda og Jerusalem.
At the return of the year king Nebuchadnezzar sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the goodly vessels of the house of YHWH, and made Zedekiah his relative king over Judah and Jerusalem.
11 Eitt og tjuge år gamall var Sidkia då han vart konge, og elleve år styrde han i Jerusalem.
Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem:
12 Han gjorde det som var vondt i Herrens, hans Guds, augo; han audmykte seg ikkje for profeten Jeremia som tala ord frå Herrens munn.
and he did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH his God; he did not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet speaking from the mouth of YHWH.
13 Attpå gjorde han uppreist imot kong Nebukadnessar, som hadde teke honom i eid ved Gud; og han var ein stivnakke og gjorde hjarta sitt hardt, so han umvende seg ikkje til Herren, Israels Gud.
He also rebelled against king Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by God: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart against turning to YHWH, the God of Israel.
14 Alle hovdingarne bland prestarne og folket gjorde mykjen utruskap og for med same styggedomen som heidningarne og sulka til Herrens hus, som han hadde helga i Jerusalem.
Moreover all the chiefs of the priests, and the people, trespassed very greatly after all the abominations of the nations; and they polluted the house of YHWH which he had made holy in Jerusalem.
15 Herren, deira fedregud, sende fyretolor til deim seint og tidleg med sendebodi sine, av di han tykte synd i folket sitt og bustaden sin.
YHWH, the God of their fathers, sent to them by his messengers, rising up early and sending, because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place:
16 Men dei spotta sendebodi for Gud, hædde ordi hans og svivyrde profetarne hans til dess Herrens harm reiste seg soleis imot folket hans, at det ikkje lenger var nokor botevon.
but they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and scoffed at his prophets, until the wrath of YHWH arose against his people, until there was no remedy.
17 Han sende kaldæarkongen imot deim, og han drap deira unge mannskap med sverd i det heilage huset deira og sparde korkje unggut eller ungmøy, gamall eller gråhærd. Alt gav han i hans hand.
Therefore he brought on them the king of the Chaldeans, who killed their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion on young man or virgin, old man or gray-headed: he gave them all into his hand.
18 Alle kjeraldi i Guds hus, både store og små, skattarne i Herrens hus og skatterne åt kongen og hovdingarne hans, alt saman førde han til Babel.
All the vessels of God's house, great and small, and the treasures of the house of YHWH, and the treasures of the king, and of his officials, all these he brought to Babylon.
19 Dei brende upp Guds hus og reiv ned Jerusalems-muren, brende upp alle slotti der og øydelagde alle dei dyrverdige tingi som fanst der.
They burnt God's house, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all its palaces with fire, and destroyed all the goodly vessels of it.
20 Deim som sverdet hadde leivt, førde han fangar til Babel, og der vert dei trælar for honom og sønerne hans til dess Persarriket kom til magti,
He carried those who had escaped from the sword away to Babylon; and they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia:
21 so Herrens ord i Jeremias munn skulde verta uppfyllt, til dess landet fekk njota si kvild; alt med det låg i øyde, fekk det kvila til dess sytti år var lidne.
to fulfill the word of YHWH by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed its Sabbaths. As long as it lay desolate it kept Sabbath, to fulfill seventy years.
22 Men i det fyrste året åt Kyrus, kongen i Persia, vekte Herren hugen i persarkongen Kyrus - for Herrens ord i Jeremias munn skulde nå sitt endemål - og han let ropa ut i alt sitt rike, og sende brev ikring med sovori kunngjering:
Now in the first year of Koresh king of Persia, that the word of YHWH by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, YHWH stirred up the spirit of Koresh king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
23 «So segjer Kyrus, kongen i Persia: «Alle kongerike på jordi hev Herren, Gud i himmelen, gjeve meg, og han hev lagt på meg at eg skal byggja honom eit hus i Jerusalem i Juda. Er det nokon millom dykk av alt hans folk, so vere Herren, hans Gud, med honom, og han drage upp dit!»»
"Thus says Koresh king of Persia, 'YHWH, the God of heaven, has given all the kingdoms of the earth to me; and he has commanded me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever there is among you of all his people, YHWH his God be with him, and let him go up.'"
