< 2 Chronicles 36 >

1 Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz, the son of Josiah, and made him king in Jerusalem in place of his father.
Og Folket i Landet tog Joakas, Josias's Søn, og de gjorde ham til Konge i hans Faders Sted, i Jerusalem.
2 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for three months.
Joakas var tre og tyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede tre Maaneder i Jerusalem;
3 Then the king of Egypt took the kingdom from him in Jerusalem, and put on the land a tax of a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
men Kongen af Ægypten afsatte ham i Jerusalem og straffede Landet paa hundrede Centner Sølv og et Centner Guld.
4 And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, changing his name to Jehoiakim. And Neco took his brother Jehoahaz away to Egypt.
Og Kongen af Ægypten gjorde Eliakim, hans Broder, til Konge over Juda og Jerusalem og omvendte hans Navn til Jojakim; men Neko tog hans Broder Joakas og førte ham til Ægypten.
5 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for eleven years, and he did evil in the eyes of the Lord his God.
Jojakim var fem og tyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede elleve Aar i Jerusalem; og han gjorde det, som var ondt for Herrens, hans Guds, Øjne.
6 Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came up against him, and took him away in chains to Babylon.
Nebukadnezar, Kongen af Babel, drog op imod ham og bandt ham med to Kobberlænker for at føre ham til Babel.
7 And Nebuchadnezzar took away some of the vessels of the Lord's house, and put them in the house of his god in Babylon.
Og Nebukadnezar førte nogle af Herrens Hus's Kar til Babel og lagde dem i sit Tempel i Babel.
8 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim and the disgusting things he did, and all there is to be said against him, are recorded in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah; and Jehoiachin his son became king in his place.
Men det øvrige af Jojakims Handeler og hans Vederstyggeligheder, som han gjorde, og det, som fandtes hos ham, se, de Ting ere skrevne i Israels og Judas Kongers Bog; og Jojakin, hans Søn, blev Konge i hans Sted.
9 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for three months and ten days, and he did evil in the eyes of the Lord.
Jojakin var otte Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede tre Maaneder og ti Dage i Jerusalem og gjorde det, som var ondt for Herrens Øjne.
10 In the spring of the year King Nebuchadnezzar sent and took him away to Babylon, with the beautiful vessels of the house of the Lord, and made Zedekiah, his father's brother, king over Judah and Jerusalem.
Men der Aaret var omme, sendte Kong Nebukadnezar hen og lod ham føre til Babel tillige med Herrens Hus's kostelige Kar og gjorde Zedekias, hans Broder, til Konge over Juda og Jerusalem.
11 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for eleven years.
Zedekias var et og tyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede elleve Aar i Jerusalem.
12 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, and did not make himself low before Jeremiah the prophet who gave him the word of the Lord.
Og han gjorde det, som var ondt for Herren, hans Guds, Øjne; han ydmygede sig ikke for Profeten Jeremias, som talte af Herrens Mund.
13 And he took up arms against King Nebuchadnezzar, though he had made him take an oath by God; but he made his neck stiff and his heart hard, turning away from the Lord, the God of Israel.
Tilmed faldt han og af fra Kong Nebukadnezar, som havde ladet ham sværge ved Gud; og han gjorde sin Nakke stiv og forhærdede sit Hjerte og vilde ikke omvende sig til Herren, Israels Gud.
14 And more than this, all the great men of Judah and the priests and the people made their sin great, turning to all the disgusting ways of the nations; and they made unclean the house of the Lord which he had made holy in Jerusalem.
Og alle de øverste iblandt Præsterne og Folket forsyndede sig saare meget, idet de efterlignede alle Hedningernes Vederstyggeligheder og besmittede Herrens Hus, som han havde helliget i Jerusalem.
15 And the Lord, the God of their fathers, sent word to them by his servants, sending early and frequently, because he had pity on his people and on his living-place;
Og Herren, deres Fædres Gud, sendte til dem ved sine Sendebud tidligt og ideligt; thi han vilde skaane sit Folk og sin Bolig.
16 But they put shame on the servants of God, making sport of his words and laughing at his prophets, till the wrath of God was moved against his people, till there was no help.
Men de bespottede Guds Sendebud og foragtede hans Ord og forhaanede hans Profeter, indtil Herrens Vrede tog til over hans Folk, indtil der var ingen Lægedom mere.
17 So he sent against them the king of the Chaldaeans, who put their young men to death with the sword in the house of their holy place, and had no pity for any, young man or virgin, old man or white-haired: God gave them all into his hands.
Og han førte Kaldæernes Konge op imod dem, og denne ihjelslog deres unge Karle med Sværd udi deres Helligdoms Hus og sparede hverken unge Karle eller Jomfruer, gamle eller udlevede; han gav dem alle i hans Haand.
18 And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the stored wealth of the Lord's house and the wealth of the king and his chiefs, he took away to Babylon.
Og alle Kar fra Guds Hus, store og smaa, og Herrens Hus's Skatte og Kongens og hans Fyrsters Skatte førte han alt sammen til Babel.
19 And the house of God was burned and the wall of Jerusalem broken down; all its great houses were burned with fire and all its beautiful vessels given up to destruction.
Og de opbrændte Guds Hus og nedbrøde Jerusalems Mure, og de opbrændte alle dens Paladser med Ild, og alle dens kostelige Kar bleve ødelagte.
20 And all who had not come to death by the sword he took away prisoners to Babylon; and they became servants to him and to his sons till the kingdom of Persia came to power:
Og han bortførte til Babel dem, som vare overblevne fra Sværdet, og de bleve hans og hans Sønners Tjenere, indtil Persiens Rige fik Magten;
21 So that the words of the Lord, which he said by the mouth of Jeremiah, might come true, till the land had had pleasure in her Sabbaths; for as long as she was waste the land kept the Sabbath, till seventy years were complete.
at Herrens Ord skulde opfyldes, som var talt ved Jeremias's Mund, indtil Landet havde faaet nok af sine Sabbater; det hvilede den ganske Tid, som Ødelæggelsen varede, indtil halvfjerdsindstyve Aar bleve fyldte.
22 Now in the first year of Cyrus, king of Persia, in order that the words which the Lord had said by the mouth of Jeremiah might come true, the spirit of Cyrus, king of Persia, was moved by the Lord, and he made a public statement and had it given out through all his kingdom and put in writing, saying,
Men i Kyrus's, Kongen af Persiens, første Aar, da Herrens Ord, som var talt ved Jeremias's Mund, var fuldkommet, opvakte Herren Kyrus's, Kongen af Persiens, Aand, at han lod udraabe over sit ganske Rige, ja kundgøre ved Skrift, og sige:
23 Cyrus, king of Persia, has said, All the kingdoms of the earth have been given to me by the Lord, the God of heaven; and he has made me responsible for building a house for him in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever there is among you of all his people, may the Lord his God be with him and let him go up.
Saa siger Kyrus, Kongen i Persien: Herren, Himmelens Gud, har givet mig alle Riger paa Jorden, og han har befalet mig at bygge sig et Hus i Jerusalem, som er i Juda. Hvo der maatte være iblandt eder af alle hans Folk, med ham være Herren hans Gud, og han drage op!
