1 Kings 15
1 Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam the son of Nebat began Abijam to reign over Judah.
I kong Jeroboams, Nebats sønns attende år blev Abiam konge over Juda.
2 He reigned three years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
Han regjerte tre år i Jerusalem. Hans mor hette Ma'aka; hun var datter til Abisalom.
3 He walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him; and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father.
Han vandret i alle de synder som hans far hadde gjort før ham, og hans hjerte var ikke helt med Herren hans Gud, som hans far Davids hjerte hadde vært;
4 Nevertheless for David's sake, the LORD his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem;
men for Davids skyld lot Herren hans Gud en lampe brenne for ham i Jerusalem, idet han opreiste hans sønn efter ham og lot Jerusalem bli stående,
5 because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and did not turn aside from anything that he commanded him all the days of his life, except only in the matter of Uriah the Hethite.
fordi David gjorde hvad rett var i Herrens øine, og i hele sitt liv ikke vek av fra noget av det han hadde befalt ham, undtagen det som hendte med hetitten Uria.
6 [Now there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.]
Mellem Rehabeam og Jeroboam var det krig så lenge han levde.
7 The rest of the acts of Abijam, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? There was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Abiam og om alt det han gjorde, er opskrevet i Judas kongers krønike. Mellem Abiam og Jeroboam var det også krig.
8 Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the City of David: and Asa his son reigned in his place.
Og Abiam la sig til hvile hos sine fedre, og de begravde ham i Davids stad; og hans sønn Asa blev konge i hans sted.
9 In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel began Asa to reign over Judah.
I Jeroboams, Israels konges tyvende år blev Asa konge over Juda.
10 He reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
Han regjerte en og firti år i Jerusalem. Hans mor hette Ma'aka; hun var datter til Abisalom.
11 Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, as did David his father.
Asa gjorde hvad rett var i Herrens øine, likesom hans far David hadde gjort.
12 And he banished the male temple prostitutes out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
Han drev tempel-bolerne ut av landet og fikk bort alle de motbydelige avguder som hans fedre hadde gjort.
13 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 in the Kidron Valley.
Han avsatte endog sin mor Ma'aka fra hennes verdighet, fordi hun hadde gjort et gruelig avgudsbillede for Astarte; Asa hugg hennes gruelige avgudsbillede ned og brente det i Kidrons dal.
14 But the high places were not taken away: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect with the LORD all his days.
Men offerhaugene blev ikke nedlagt; dog var Asas hjerte helt med Herren så lenge han levde.
15 He brought into the house of the LORD the things that his father had dedicated, and the things that himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.
Han lot de ting hans far hadde helliget, og dem han selv hadde helliget, føre inn i Herrens hus, både sølv og gull og andre ting.
16 There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
Mellem Asa og Baesa, Israels konge, var det krig så lenge de levde.
17 Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow anyone to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
Baesa, Israels konge, drog op mot Juda og bygget festningsverker i Rama for å hindre enhver fra å dra fra eller til Asa, Judas konge.
18 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, who lived at Damascus, saying,
Da tok Asa alt det sølv og gull som var tilbake i skattkammerne i Herrens hus, og likeså skattene i kongens hus og overgav dem til sine tjenere; så sendte kong Asa dem til Benhadad, kongen i Syria, som bodde i Damaskus og var sønn til Tabrimmon, Hesjons sønn, med de ord:
19 "Let there be a treaty between me and you, between my father and your father. Look, I have sent to you a present of silver and gold. Go, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me."
Mellem mig og dig er det jo et forbund, som det var mellem min far og din far. Her sender jeg dig en gave av sølv og gull; bryt nu ditt forbund med Baesa, Israels konge, så han må dra bort fra mig!
20 Ben Hadad listened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel, and struck Ijon, and Dan, and Abel Beth Maacah, and all Kinnereth, with all the land of Naphtali.
Benhadad lød kong Asa og sendte sine hærførere mot Israels byer og inntok Ijon og Dan og Abel-Bet-Ma'aka og hele Kinneret med hele Naftalis land.
21 It happened, when Baasha heard of it, that he left off building Ramah, and lived in Tirzah.
Da Baesa hørte det, holdt han op med å bygge festningsverker i Rama og gav sig til i Tirsa.
22 Then king Asa made a proclamation to all Judah; none was exempted: and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and its timber, with which Baasha had built; and king Asa built therewith Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
Men kong Asa opbød hele Juda - ingen var fritatt - og de førte bort stenene og tømmeret som Baesa hadde brukt til festningsarbeidet i Rama; med det bygget kong Asa festningsverker i Geba i Benjamin og i Mispa.
23 Now the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities which he built, aren't they 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.
Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Asa, om alle hans store gjerninger og alt det han gjorde, og om de byer han bygget, det er opskrevet i Judas kongers krønike. Men i sin alderdom fikk han en sykdom i føttene.
24 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 place.
Og Asa la sig til hvile hos sine fedre og blev begravet hos sine fedre i sin far Davids stad, og hans sønn Josafat blev konge i hans sted.
25 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.
Nadab, Jeroboams sønn, blev konge over Israel i Asas, Judas konges annet år, og han regjerte over Israel i to år.
26 He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin with which he made Israel to sin.
Han gjorde hvad ondt var i Herrens øine, og vandret på sin fars vei og i hans synd, den som han hadde fått Israel til å gjøre.
27 Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and Baasha struck him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel were laying siege to Gibbethon.
Men Baesa, Akias sønn, av Issakars hus, fikk i stand en sammensvergelse mot ham; og Baesa slo ham ihjel ved Gibbeton, som tilhørte filistrene, mens Nadab og hele Israel holdt Gibbeton kringsatt.
28 Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha killed him, and reigned in his place.
Baesa drepte ham i Asas, Judas konges tredje år og blev så konge i hans sted.
29 It happened that, as soon as he was king, he struck all the house of Jeroboam: he did not leave to Jeroboam any who breathed, until he had destroyed him; according to the saying of the LORD, which he spoke by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite;
Og da han var blitt konge, slo han hele Jeroboams hus ihjel; han lot ikke en levende sjel bli tilbake av Jeroboams hus, men utryddet det efter det ord som Herren hadde talt ved sin tjener Akia fra Silo;
30 for the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and with which he made Israel to sin, because of his provocation with which he provoked the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger.
dette skjedde for de synders skyld som Jeroboam hadde gjort, og som han hadde fått Israel til å gjøre, og fordi han hadde vakt Herrens, Israels Guds harme.
31 Now the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Nadab og om alt det han gjorde, er opskrevet i Israels kongers krønike.
32 There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
Mellem Asa og Israels konge Baesa var det krig så lenge de levde.
33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha the son of Ahijah began to reign over all Israel in Tirzah for twenty-four years.
I Asas, Judas konges tredje år blev Baesa, Akias sønn, konge over hele Israel i Tirsa, og han var konge i fire og tyve år.
34 He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin with which he made Israel to sin.
Han gjorde hvad ondt var i Herrens øine, og vandret på Jeroboams vei og i hans synd, den som han hadde fått Israel til å gjøre.
