1 Kungaboken 15

1 På adertonde årena Konung Jerobeams, Nebats sons, vardt Abiam Konung i Juda;

Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam the son of Nebat began Abijam to reign over Judah.

2 Och regerade tre år i Jerusalem. Hans moder het Maacha, Abisaloms dotter.

Three years reigned he in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.

3 Och han vandrade i alla sins faders synder, som han för honom gjort hade; och hans hjerta var icke rättsinnigt till Herran hans Gud, såsom hans faders Davids hjerta.

And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him; and his heart was not whole with the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father.

4 Men för Davids skull gaf Herren hans Gud honom ena lykto i Jerusalem, så att han uppväckte hans son efter honom, och behöll honom i Jerusalem;

Nevertheless for David's sake did the LORD his God give him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem;

5 Derföre att David gjort hade det Herranom ljuft var, och var icke viken ifrån allt det han honom böd, så länge han lefde; förutan i den handelen med Uria den Hetheen.

because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from any thing that He commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.

6 Men emellan Rehabeam och Jerobeam var örlig, så länge han lefde.

Now there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.

7 Hvad nu mer af Abiam sägandes är, och allt det han gjort hafver; si, det är skrifvet uti Juda Konungars Chrönico. Och det var örlig emellan Abiam och Jerobeam.

And the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.

8 Och Abiam afsomnade med sina fäder; och de begrofvo honom uti Davids stad. Och Asa hans son vardt Konung uti hans stad.

And Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David; and Asa his son reigned in his stead.

9 Uti tjugonde årena Konungs Jerobeams öfver Israel, vardt Asa Konung i Juda;

And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel began Asa to reign over Judah.

10 Och regerade ett och fyratio år i Jerusalem. Hans moder het Maacha, Abisaloms dotter.

And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.

11 Och Asa gjorde det Herranom behageligit var, såsom hans fader David;

And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, as did David his father.

12 Och dref de roffare utu landet, och borttog alla de afgudar, som hans fäder gjort hade.

And he put away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.

13 Dertill satte han sina moder Maacha af ämbetet, för det hon Miplezeth gjort hade i lundenom; och Asa utrotade hennes Miplezeth, och uppbrände honom vid den bäcken Kidron.

And also Maacah his mother he removed from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah; and Asa cut down her image, and burnt it at the brook Kidron.

14 Men de höjder lade de icke bort; dock var Asa hjerta rättsinnigt till Herran, så länge han lefde.

But the high places were not taken away; nevertheless the heart of Asa was whole with the LORD all his days.

15 Och det silfver och guld, och tyg, som hans fader helgat hade, och hvad som helgadt var till Herrans hus, lät han komma derin.

And he brought into the house of the LORD the things that his father had hallowed, and the things that himself had hallowed, silver, and gold, and vessels.

16 Och emellan Asa och Baesa, Israels Konung, var örlig, så länge de lefde.

And there was war between Asa and Baasa king of Israel all their days.

17 Men Baesa, Israels Konung, drog upp emot Juda, och byggde Rama, att ingen skulle draga ut och in af Asa part, Konungens i Juda.

And Baasa king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not suffer any to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.

18 Då tog Asa allt silfver och guld, som qvart var i Herrans hus skatt, och i Konungshusets skatt, och fick det i sina tjenares händer; och sände dem till Benhadad, Tabrimmons son, Hesions sons, Konungen i Syrien, som bodde i Damascon, och lät säga honom:

Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that were left in the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house, and delivered them into the hand of his servants; and king Asa sent them to Ben-hadad, the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, king of Aram, that dwelt at Damascus, saying:

19 Ett förbund är emellan, mig och dig, och emellan min fader och din, fader; derföre skickar jag dig en, skänk, silfver och guld, att du ville låta det förbundet fara, som du hafver med Baesa, Israels Konung, att han må draga ifrå mig.

'There is a league between me and thee, between my father and thy father; behold, I have sent unto thee a present of silver and gold; go, break thy league with Baasa king of Israel, that he may depart from me.'

20 Benhadad hörde Konung Asa, och sände sina höfvitsmän emot Israels städer, och slog Ijon och Dan, och AbelBethMaacha, hela Cinneroth med hela Naphthali land.

And Ben-hadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-beth-maacah, and all Chinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.

21 Då Baesa det hörde, vände han igen bygga Rama, och drog till Thirza igen.

And it came to pass, when Baasa heard thereof, that he left off building Ramah, and dwelt in Tirzah.

22 Men Konung Asa lät båda öfver hela Juda: Ingen ursake sig; och de togo bort sten och trä af Rama, der Baesa med byggt hade. Och Konung Asa byggde dermed Geba BenJamin, och Mizpa.

Then king Asa made a proclamation unto all Judah; none was exempted; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasa had builded; and king Asa built therewith Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.

23 Hvad nu mer af Asa sägandes är, och all hans magt, och allt det han gjorde, och de städer som han byggde, si, det är skrifvet uti Juda Konungars Chrönico; undantagno, att han på sinom ålder var krank i sina fötter.

Now the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities which he built, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? But in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.

24 Och Asa afsomnade med sina fader, och vardt begrafven med sina fader uti Davids sins faders stad. Och Josaphat hans son vardt Konung i hans stad.

And Asa slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father; and Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead.

25 Men Nadab, Jerobeams son, vardt Konung öfver Israel, uti de andra årena Asa, Juda Konungs; och rådde öfver Israel i tu år;

And Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and he reigned over Israel two years.

26 Och gjorde det för Herranom ondt var, och vandrade i sins faders vägar, och i hans synder, der han med kom Israel till att synda.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin.

27 Men Baesa, Ahia son, utaf Isaschars hus, gjorde ett förbund emot honom, och slog honom i Gibbethon, som var de Philisteers; ty Nadab och hele Israel belade Gibbethon.

And Baasa the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and Baasa smote him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel were laying siege to Gibbethon.

28 Så drap Baesa honom, uti tredje årena Asa, Juda Konungs; och vardt Konung i hans stad.

Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah did Baasa slay him, and reigned in his stead.

29 Som han nu Konung var, slog han hela Jerobeams hus, och lät intet qvart blifva, det anda hade, af Jerobeam, tilldess han utrotade honom, efter Herrans ord, som han talat hade genom sin tjenare Ahia af Silo;

And it came to pass that, as soon as he was king, he smote all the house of Jeroboam; he left not to Jeroboam any that breathed, until he had destroyed him; according unto the saying of the LORD, which He spoke by the hand of His servant Ahijah the Shilonite;

30 För Jerobeams synds skull, som han gjorde, och dermed han kom Israel till att synda; och med det retandet, dermed han rette Herran Israels Gud till vrede.

for the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and wherewith he made Israel to sin; because of his provocation wherewith he provoked the LORD, the God of Israel.

31 Hvad nu mer af Nadab sägandes är, och allt det han gjort hafver, si, det är skrifvet uti Israels Konungars Chrönico.

Now the rest of the acts of Nadab and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

32 Och emellan Asa och Baesa, Israels Konung, var örlig, så länge de lefde.

And there was war between Asa and Baasa king of Israel all their days.

33 Uti tredje årena Asa, Juda Konungs, vardt Baesa, Ahia son, Konung öfver hela Israel i Thirza, fyra och tjugu år;

In the third year of Asa king of Judah began Baasa the son of Ahijah to reign over all Israel in Tirzah, and reigned twenty and four years.

34 Och gjorde det ondt var för Herranom, och vandrade i Jerobeams väg, och i hans synd, dermed han hade kommit Israel till att synda.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin.
