1 Kings 15
1 Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam the son of Nebat reigned Abijam over Judah.
Dalam tahun kedelapan belas zaman raja Yerobeam bin Nebat menjadi rajalah Abiam atas Yehuda.
2 Three years he reigned in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom.
Tiga tahun lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem. Nama ibunya ialah Maakha, anak Abisalom.
3 And 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.
Abiam hidup dalam segala dosa yang telah dilakukan ayahnya sebelumnya, dan ia tidak dengan sepenuh hati berpaut kepada TUHAN, Allahnya, seperti Daud, moyangnya.
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:
Tetapi oleh karena Daud maka TUHAN, Allahnya, memberikan keturunan kepadanya di Yerusalem dengan mengangkat anaknya menggantikan dia dan dengan membiarkan Yerusalem berdiri,
5 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, except only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
karena Daud telah melakukan apa yang benar di mata TUHAN dan tidak menyimpang dari segala yang diperintahkan-Nya kepadanya seumur hidupnya, kecuali dalam perkara Uria, orang Het itu.
6 And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
Dan ada perang antara Rehabeam dan Yerobeam, seumur hidupnya.
7 Now 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.
Selebihnya dari riwayat Abiam dan segala yang dilakukannya, bukankah semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Yehuda? Dan ada perang antara Abiam dan Yerobeam.
8 And Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead.
Kemudian Abiam mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya, dan ia dikuburkan di kota Daud. Maka Asa, anaknya, menjadi raja menggantikan dia.
9 And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned Asa over Judah.
Dalam tahun kedua puluh zaman Yerobeam, raja Israel, Asa menjadi raja atas Yehuda.
10 And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom.
Empat puluh satu tahun lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem. Nama neneknya yang perempuan ialah Maakha, anak Abisalom.
11 And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, as did David his father.
Asa melakukan apa yang benar di mata TUHAN seperti Daud, bapa leluhurnya.
12 And he banished the sodomites from the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
Ia menyingkirkan pelacuran bakti dari negeri itu dan menjauhkan segala berhala yang dibuat oleh nenek moyangnya.
13 And also Maachah his mother, even her he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa destroyed her idol, and burnt it by the brook Kidron.
Bahkan ia memecat Maakha, neneknya, dari pangkat ibu suri, karena neneknya itu membuat patung Asyera yang keji. Asa merobohkan patung yang keji itu dan membakarnya di lembah Kidron.
14 But the high places were not removed: nevertheless Asa’s heart was perfect with the LORD all his days.
Sekalipun bukit-bukit pengorbanan tidak dijauhkan, namun Asa berpaut kepada TUHAN dengan segenap hatinya sepanjang umurnya.
15 And he brought the things which his father had dedicated, and the things which himself had dedicated, into the house of the LORD, silver, and gold, and vessels.
Ia membawa persembahan-persembahan kudus ayahnya dan persembahan-persemba kudusnya sendiri ke rumah TUHAN, yakni emas dan perak serta barang-barang lain.
16 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
Dan ada perang antara Asa dan Baesa, raja Israel, sepanjang umur mereka.
17 And Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow any to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
Baesa, raja Israel, maju berperang melawan Yehuda, dan ia memperkuat Rama, dengan maksud mencegah lalu lintas kepada Asa, raja Yehuda.
18 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that were left in the treasuries 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 Benhadad, the son of Tabrimon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,
Tetapi Asa mengambil segala emas dan perak yang masih tinggal dalam perbendaharaan rumah TUHAN dan dalam perbendaharaan rumah raja dan menyerahkannya kepada pegawainya. Kemudian raja Asa mengutus mereka kepada Benhadad bin Tabrimon bin Hezion, raja Aram yang diam di Damsyik, dengan membawa pesan:
19 There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent to thee a present of silver and gold; come and break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
"Ada perjanjian antara aku dan engkau, antara ayahku dan ayahmu. Di sini kukirim kepadamu suatu bingkisan, yakni emas dan perak. Marilah, batalkanlah perjanjianmu dengan Baesa, raja Israel, supaya ia undur dari padaku."
20 So Benhadad hearkened to king Asa, and sent the captains of the armies which he had against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abelbethmaachah, and all Cinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
Lalu Benhadad mendengarkan permintaan raja Asa; ia menyuruh panglima-panglimanya menyerang kota-kota Israel dan ia mengalahkan Iyon, Dan, Abel-Bet-Maakha dan seluruh Kinerot serta seluruh tanah Naftali.
21 And it came to pass, when Baasha heard of it, that he stopped building Ramah, and dwelt in Tirzah.
Segera sesudah Baesa mendengar hal itu, ia berhenti memperkuat Rama dan ia menetap di Tirza.
22 Then king Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah; none was exempted: and they took away the stones of Ramah, and its timber, with which Baasha had built it; and king Asa built with them Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
Tetapi raja Asa mengerahkan segenap orang Yehuda, seorangpun tiada yang terkecuali; mereka harus mengangkat batu dan kayu yang dipergunakan Baesa untuk memperkuat Rama. Raja Asa mempergunakannya untuk memperkuat Geba-Benyamin dan Mizpa.
23 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? Nevertheless in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
Selebihnya dari seluruh riwayat Asa dan segala kepahlawanannya dan segala yang dilakukannya dan kota-kota yang diperkuatnya, bukankah semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Yehuda? Tetapi pada masa tuanya ia menderita sakit pada kedua kakinya.
24 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.
Kemudian Asa mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya, dan ia dikuburkan di samping nenek moyangnya di kota Daud, bapa leluhurnya. Maka Yosafat, anaknya, menjadi raja menggantikan dia.
25 And Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned over Israel two years.
Nadab, anak Yerobeam, menjadi raja atas Israel dalam tahun kedua zaman Asa, raja Yehuda. Ia memerintah atas Israel dua tahun lamanya.
26 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin which he made Israel to sin.
Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN, serta hidup menurut tingkah laku ayahnya dan menurut dosa ayahnya, yang mengakibatkan orang Israel berdosa pula.
27 And Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and Baasha smote him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel laid siege to Gibbethon.
Dan Baesa bin Ahia, dari kaum Isakhar, mengadakan persepakatan melawan dia. Baesa menewaskan dia di Gibeton yang termasuk wilayah orang Filistin, sedang Nadab dan seluruh Israel mengepung Gibeton itu.
28 Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah did Baasha slay him, and reigned in his stead.
Baesa membunuh dia dalam tahun ketiga zaman Asa, raja Yehuda, dan menjadi raja menggantikan dia.
29 And it came to pass, when he reigned, that he smote all the house of Jeroboam; he left not to Jeroboam any that breathed, until he had destroyed him, according to the saying of the LORD, which he spoke by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite:
Segera sesudah ia menjadi raja, ia membunuh seluruh keluarga Yerobeam; tidak ada yang bernafas yang ditinggalkannya hidup dari pada Yerobeam, sampai dipunahkannya semuanya, sesuai dengan firman TUHAN yang diucapkan-Nya dengan perantaraan hamba-Nya Ahia, orang Silo itu,
30 Because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and which he made Israel sin, by his provocation with which he provoked the LORD God of Israel to anger.
oleh karena dosa-dosa yang telah dilakukan Yerobeam, yang mengakibatkan orang Israel berdosa pula, oleh sebab sakit hati yang ditimbulkannya pada TUHAN, Allah Israel.
31 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?
Selebihnya dari riwayat Nadab dan segala yang dilakukannya, bukankah semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Israel?
32 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
Dan ada perang antara Asa dan Baesa, raja Israel, sepanjang umur mereka.
33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah began Baasha the son of Ahijah to reign over all Israel in Tirzah, twenty and four years.
Dalam tahun ketiga zaman Asa, raja Yehuda, Baesa bin Ahia menjadi raja atas seluruh Israel di Tirza. Ia memerintah dua puluh empat tahun lamanya.
34 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he made Israel to sin.
Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN serta hidup menurut tingkah laku Yerobeam dan menurut dosanya yang mengakibatkan orang Israel berdosa pula.
