Anden Kongebog 24 |
| 1992 | King James Version |
| 1 På hans tid drog babylonerkongen Nebukadnesar op, og Jojakim blev hans vasal i tre år, men så slog han om og gjorde oprør. | 1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him. |
| 2 Da sendte Herren kaldæiske, aramaiske, moabitiske og ammonitiske strejfskarer mod ham. Han sendte dem mod Juda for at tilintetgøre det efter det ord, Herren havde talt ved sine tjenere, profeterne. | 2 And the LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldees, and bands of the Syrians, and bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servants the prophets. |
| 3 Det var helt efter Herrens befaling, at det gik Juda sådan; han ville fjerne det fra sine øjne på grund af alle de synder, Manasse havde begået, | 3 Surely at the commandment of the LORD came this upon Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did; |
| 4 og især på grund af det uskyldige blod, som han havde udgydt. Han havde fyldt Jerusalem med uskyldigt blod, og det ville Herren ikke tilgive. | 4 And also for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; which the LORD would not pardon. |
| 5 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Jojakim, alt hvad han gjorde, står jo i Judas Kongers Krønike. | 5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? |
| 6 Jojakim lagde sig til hvile hos sine fædre, og hans søn Jojakin blev konge efter ham. | 6 So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead. |
| 7 Egypterkongen rykkede ikke mere ud af sit land, for babylonerkongen havde erobret området fra Egyptens bæk til Eufratfloden, alle egypterkongens besiddelser. | 7 And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his land: for the king of Babylon had taken from the river of Egypt unto the river Euphrates all that pertained to the king of Egypt. |
| 8 Jojakin var atten år, da han blev konge, og han regerede tre måneder i Jerusalem. Hans mor hed Nehushta og var datter af Elnatan fra Jerusalem. | 8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. And his mother's name was Nehushta, the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem. |
| 9 Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i Herrens øjne, ganske som sin far. | 9 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father had done. |
| 10 På den tid drog babylonerkongen Nebukadnesars folk mod Jerusalem, og byen kom under belejring. | 10 At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up against Jerusalem, and the city was besieged. |
| 11 Babylonerkongen Nebukadnesar kom selv til stede, mens hans folk belejrede byen, | 11 And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came against the city, and his servants did besiege it. |
| 12 og Judas konge Jojakin overgav sig til ham sammen med sin mor, sine folk, sine stormænd og hofmænd; i sit ottende regeringsår tog babylonerkongen ham til fange. | 12 And Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his princes, and his officers: and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign. |
| 13 Han førte alle skattene fra Herrens tempel og fra kongens palads bort og huggede alle de guldting af, som Israels konge Salomo havde lavet til Herrens tempel, sådan som Herren havde forudsagt. | 13 And he carried out thence all the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the LORD, as the LORD had said. |
| 14 Så førte han hele Jerusalem i eksil, alle stormændene og de velstående, ti tusind i alt, og alle håndværkerne og finsmedene. Der blev ikke andre tilbage end de fattigste af landbefolkningen. | 14 And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valour, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and smiths: none remained, save the poorest sort of the people of the land. |
| 15 Han førte Jojakin i eksil til Babylon, og kongens mor, hans hustruer, hans hofmænd og de mægtige i landet førte han også i eksil fra Jerusalem til Babylon. | 15 And he carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, and the king's mother, and the king's wives, and his officers, and the mighty of the land, those carried he into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon. |
| 16 Alle krigere, syv tusind mand, og tusind håndværkere og finsmede, der alle var øvede krigere, førte babylonerkongen i eksil til Babylon. | 16 And all the men of might, even seven thousand, and craftsmen and smiths a thousand, all that were strong and apt for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon. |
| 17 Så gjorde babylonerkongen Jojakins farbror Mattanja til konge efter ham, og han ændrede hans navn til Sidkija. | 17 And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah his father's brother king in his stead, and changed his name to Zedekiah. |
| 18 Sidkija var enogtyve ar, da han blev konge, og han regerede elleve år i Jerusalem. Hans mor hed Hamital og var datter af Jirmeja fra Libna. | 18 Zedekiah was twenty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah. |
| 19 Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt i Herrens øjne, ganske som Jojakim. | 19 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done. |
| 20 Det var på grund af Herrens vrede, det gik Jerusalem og Juda sådan. Til sidst forstødte han dem fra sit ansigt. | 20 For through the anger of the LORD it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon. |
