Anden Krønikebog 12 |
| 1992 | King James Version |
| 1 Da Rehabeams kongedømme var grundfæstet og hans magt styrket, svigtede han og hele Israel Herrens lov. | 1 And it came to pass, when Rehoboam had established the kingdom, and had strengthened himself, he forsook the law of the LORD, and all Israel with him. |
| 2 I kong Rehabeam femte regeringsår drog egypterkongen Shishak op mod Jerusalem, for de havde været troløse mod Herren; | 2 And it came to pass, that in the fifth year of king Rehoboam Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgressed against the LORD, |
| 3 han kom med tolv hundrede vogne og tres tusind ryttere og utallige krigere, som fulgte ham fra Egypten, libyere sukkijitter og nubiere. | 3 With twelve hundred chariots, and threescore thousand horsemen: and the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt; the Lubims, the Sukkiims, and the Ethiopians. |
| 4 Han indtog fæstningsbyerne i Juda og nåede til Jerusalem. | 4 And he took the fenced cities which pertained to Judah, and came to Jerusalem. |
| 5 Da kom profeten Shemaja til Rehabeam og Judas stormænd, som havde søgt sammen i Jerusalem af frygt for Shishak, og han sagde til dem: "Dette siger Herren: I har svigtet mig, derfor har jeg også svigtet jer og givet jer i Shishaks hånd." | 5 Then came Shemaiah the prophet to Rehoboam, and to the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them, Thus saith the LORD, Ye have forsaken me, and therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak. |
| 6 Da ydmygede Israels stormænd og kongen sig og sagde: "Herren er retfærdig!" | 6 Whereupon the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, The LORD is righteous. |
| 7 Da Herren så, at de ydmygede sig, kom Herrens ord til Shemaja; det lød: "Siden de har ydmyget sig, vil jeg ikke tilintetgøre dem. Jeg vil snart redde dem, og min vrede skal ikke vælde frem mod Jerusalem ved Shishak. | 7 And when the LORD saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves; therefore I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance; and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak. |
| 8 Men de skal blive trælle under ham og komme til at mærke forskellen på at tjene mig og tjene de fremmede riger." | 8 Nevertheless they shall be his servants; that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries. |
| 9 Så drog egypterkongen Shishak op mod Jerusalem. Han tog skattene fra Herrens tempel og fra kongens palads, ja, han tog alt. Han tog de guldskjolde, som Salomo havde lavet, | 9 So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house; he took all: he carried away also the shields of gold which Solomon had made. |
| 10 og kong Rehabeam lavede bronzeskjolde til erstatning for dem. Dem gav han i forvaring hos befalingsmændene over livvagten, som vogtede indgangen til kongens palads. | 10 Instead of which king Rehoboam made shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the chief of the guard, that kept the entrance of the king's house. |
| 11 Hver gang kongen gik ind i Herrens tempel, kom livvagten og bar dem, og bagefter bragte de dem tilbage til livvagtens våbenkammer. | 11 And when the king entered into the house of the LORD, the guard came and fetched them, and brought them again into the guard chamber. |
| 12 Men fordi han havde ydmyget sig, vendte Herrens vrede sig fra ham; han tilintetgjorde ham ikke fuldstændigt, der var trods alt noget godt i Juda. | 12 And when he humbled himself, the wrath of the LORD turned from him, that he would not destroy him altogether: and also in Judah things went well. |
| 13 Sådan fik kong Rehabeam styrket sin magt i Jerusalem og fortsatte som konge. Rehabeam var enogfyrre år, da han blev konge, og han regerede sytten år i Jerusalem, den by Herren havde udvalgt af alle Israels stammer til at sætte sit navn på. Hans mor hed Na'ama og var fra Ammon. | 13 So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned: for Rehoboam was one and forty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mother's name was Naamah an Ammonitess. |
| 14 Han gjorde, hvad der var ondt; han bestræbte sig ikke på at søge Herren. | 14 And he did evil, because he prepared not his heart to seek the LORD. |
| 15 Hvad der er at fortælle om Rehabeam, står jo fra først til sidst i profeten Shemajas Krønike og seeren Iddos Krønike. Dette gælder også hans slægtsregister. Der var hele tiden krige mellem Rehabeam og Jeroboam. | 15 Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the book of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer concerning genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually. |
| 16 Rehabeam lagde sig til hvile hos sine fædre og blev begravet i Davidsbyen. Hans søn Abija blev konge efter ham. | 16 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abijah his son reigned in his stead. |
