3 Han vandrede i alle de Synder, hans Fader havde begået før ham, og hans Hjerte var ikke helt med HERREN hans Gud som hans Fader Davids.
3 He walked in all the sins of his father which he had committed before him; and his heart was not wholly devoted to the Lord his God, like the heart of his father David.
5 fordi David havde gjort, hvad der var ret i HERRENs Øjne, og ikke, så længe han levede, var veget fra noget af, hvad han havde pålagt ham, undtagen over for Hetiten Urias.
5 because David did what was right in the sight of the Lord, and had not turned aside from anything that He commanded him all the days of his life, except in the case of Uriah the Hittite.
7 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Abija, alt, hvad han gjorde, står jo optegnet i Judas Kongers Krønike. Abija og Jeroboam lå i Krig med hinanden.
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.
13 Han fratog endog sin Moder Ma'aka Værdigheden som Herskerinde, fordi hun havde ladet lave et Skændselsbillede til Ære for Asjera; Asa lod hendes Skændselsbillede nedbryde og brænde i Kedrons Dal.
13 He also removed Maacah his mother from being queen mother, because she had made a horrid image as an Asherah; and Asa cut down her horrid image and burned it at the brook Kidron.
18 Da tog Asa alt det Sølv og Guld, der var tilbage i Skatkamrene i HERRENs Hus og i Kongens Palads, overgav det til sine Folk og sendte dem til Kong Benhadad af Aram, en Søn af Hezjons Søn Tabrimmon, som boede i Damaskus, idet han lod sige:
18 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold which were left in the treasuries of the house of the Lord and the treasuries 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 in Damascus, saying,
19 "Der består en Pagt mellem mig og dig, mellem min Fader og din Fader; her sender jeg dig en Gave af Sølv og Guld; bryd derfor din Pagt med Kong Basja af Israel, så at han nødes til at drage bort fra mig!"
19 “Let there be a treaty between you and me, as between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent you a present of silver and gold; go, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel so that he will withdraw from me.”
20 Benhadad gik ind på Kong Asas Forslag og sendte sine Hærførere mod Israels Byer og indtog Ijjon, Dan, Abel-Bet-Ma'aka og hele Kinnerot tillige med hele Naftalis Land.
20 So Ben-hadad listened to King Asa and sent the commanders of his armies against the cities of Israel, and conquered Ijon, Dan, Abel-beth-maacah and all Chinneroth, besides all the land of Naphtali.
22 Men Kong Asa stævnede hver eneste Mand i hele Juda sammen, og de førte Stenene og Træværket bort, som Basja havde brugt ved Befæstningen af Rama; dermed befæstede Kong Asa så Geba i Benjamin og Mizpa.
22 Then King Asa made a proclamation to all Judah—none was exempt—and they carried away the stones of Ramah and its timber with which Baasha had built. And King Asa built with them Geba of Benjamin and Mizpah.
23 Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Asa, alle hans Heltegerninger, alt, hvad han gjorde, og de Byer, han befæstede, står jo optegnet i Judas Kongers Krønike. I øvrig led han i sin Alderdom af en Sygdom i Fødderne.
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, are they not 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.
27 Da stiftede Basja, Ahijas Søn af Issakars Hus, en Sammensværgelse imod ham, og Basja huggede ham ned ved Gibbeton, der tilhørte Filisterne, medens Nadab og hele Israel belejrede Byen.
27 Then Baasha the son of Ahijah of the house of Issachar conspired against him, and Baasha struck him down at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines, while Nadab and all Israel were laying siege to Gibbethon.
29 nu da han var blevet Konge, lod han hele Jeroboams Hus nedhugge, idet han ikke skånede en eneste Sjæl af Jeroboams Slægt, men udryddede dem efter det Ord, HERREN havde talet ved sin Tjener Ahija fra Silo,
29 It came about as soon as he was king, he struck down all the household of Jeroboam. He did not leave to Jeroboam any persons alive, until he had destroyed them, according to the word of the Lord, which He spoke by His servant Ahijah the Shilonite,
