2 Crónicas 21

Schlachter-Bibel 1951

1Und Josaphat legte sich zu seinen Vätern und ward begraben bei seinen Vätern in der Stadt Davids, und Jehoram, sein Sohn, ward König an seiner Statt.

2Und er hatte Brüder, Söhne Josaphats, nämlich Asarja, Jechiel und Sacharjahu, Asarjahu, Michael und Sephatjahu. Diese alle waren Söhne Josaphats, des Königs von Juda.

3Und ihr Vater machte ihnen reiche Geschenke von Silber, Gold und Kleinodien und gab ihnen feste Städte in Juda. Aber das Königreich gab er Jehoram, denn er war der Erstgeborene.

4Als aber Jehoram das Königreich seines Vaters übernommen hatte und mächtig geworden war, tötete er alle seine Brüder mit dem Schwert; dazu auch etliche von den Fürsten Israels.

5Zweiunddreißig Jahre alt war Jehoram, als er König ward, und regierte acht Jahre lang zu Jerusalem;

6und er wandelte in dem Wege der Könige von Israel, wie das Haus Ahabs getan hatte; denn er hatte die Tochter Ahabs zur Frau. Und er tat, was böse war in den Augen des HERRN.

7Aber der HERR wollte das Haus Davids nicht verderben, um des Bundes willen, welchen er mit David gemacht, und weil er ihm verheißen hatte, daß er ihm und seinen Kindern eine Leuchte geben werde immerdar.

8Zu seiner Zeit fielen die Edomiter von Juda ab und setzten einen König über sich.

9Da zog Jehoram hinüber mit seinen Obersten und allen Wagen; und er machte sich auf bei Nacht und schlug die Edomiter, die ihn und die Obersten der Wagen umzingelten.

10Aber die Edomiter fielen von Juda ab bis auf diesen Tag. Zu jener Zeit fiel auch Libna von ihm ab; denn er verließ den HERRN, den Gott seiner Väter.

11Auch machte er Höhen auf den Bergen Judas und verführte die Bewohner Jerusalems zur Abgötterei und brachte Juda auf Abwege.

12Es kam aber ein Schreiben zu ihm von dem Propheten Elia; das lautete also: So spricht der HERR, der Gott deines Vaters David: Weil du nicht gewandelt bist in den Wegen deines Vaters Josaphat, noch in den Wegen Asas, des Königs von Juda,

13sondern in dem Wege der Könige von Israel, und verführst Juda und die Bewohner Jerusalems zu Abgötterei, gleichwie das Haus Ahabs Abgötterei einführte, und hast dazu deine Brüder aus deines Vaters Haus erwürgt, die besser waren als du;

14siehe, darum wird der HERR eine schwere Plage über dein Volk verhängen, auch über deine Kinder, deine Frauen und alle deine Habe.

15Du aber wirst viel zu leiden haben an einer Krankheit in deinen Eingeweiden, bis deine Eingeweide infolge dieser Krankheit nach und nach heraustreten werden.

16Also erweckte der HERR wider Jehoram den Geist der Philister und Araber, welche zur Seite der Mohren wohnen;

17die zogen herauf gegen Juda und brachen ein und führten alle Habe hinweg, die im Hause des Königs vorhanden war; dazu seine Söhne und seine Frauen, so daß ihm kein Sohn übrigblieb, außer Joahas, sein jüngster Sohn.

18Und nach alledem schlug ihn der HERR in seinen Eingeweiden mit einer unheilbaren Krankheit.

19Und solches währte zwei Jahre. Als aber nach zwei Jahren seine Eingeweide austraten infolge seiner Krankheit, starb er unter argen Schmerzen. Und sein Volk machte ihm zu Ehren kein Feuer, wie man seinen Vätern getan hatte.

20Mit zweiunddreißig Jahren war er König geworden, und er regierte acht Jahre lang zu Jerusalem und ging unbeliebt dahin, und man begrub ihn in der Stadt Davids, aber nicht in den Gräbern der Könige.

Reina-Valera 1909

1Y DURMIÓ Josaphat con sus padres, y sepultáronlo con sus padres en la ciudad de David. Y reinó en su lugar Joram su hijo.

2Este tuvo hermanos, hijos de Josaphat, á Azarías, Jehiel, Zachârías, Azarías, Michâel, y Sephatías. Todos estos fueron hijos de Josaphat rey de Israel.

3Y su padre les había dado muchos dones de oro y de plata, y cosas preciosas, y ciudades fuertes en Judá; mas había dado el reino á Joram, porque él era el primogénito.

4Fué pues elevado Joram al reino de su padre; y luego que se hizo fuerte, mató á cuchillo á todos sus hermanos, y asimismo algunos de los príncipes de Israel.

5Cuando comenzó á reinar era de treinta y dos años, y reinó ocho años en Jerusalem.

6Y anduvo en el camino de los reyes de Israel, como hizo la casa de Achâb; porque tenía por mujer la hija de Achâb, é hizo lo malo en ojos de Jehová.

7Mas Jehová no quiso destruir la casa de David, á causa de la alianza que con David había hecho, y porque le había dicho que le daría lámpara á él y á sus hijos perpetuamente.

8En los días de éste se rebeló la Idumea, para no estar bajo el poder de Judá, y pusieron rey sobre sí.

9Entonces pasó Joram con sus príncipes, y consigo todos sus carros; y levantóse de noche, é hirió á los Idumeos que le habían cercado, y á todos los comandantes de sus carros.

10Con todo eso Edom quedó rebelado, sin estar bajo la mano de Judá hasta hoy. También se rebeló en el mismo tiempo Libna para no estar bajo su mano; por cuanto él había dejado á Jehová el Dios de sus padres.

11Demás de esto hizo altos en los montes de Judá, é hizo que los moradores de Jerusalem fornicasen, y á ello impelió á Judá.

12Y viniéronle letras del profeta Elías, que decían: Jehová, el Dios de David tu padre, ha dicho así: Por cuanto no has andado en los caminos de Josaphat tu padre, ni en los caminos de Asa, rey de Judá,

13Antes has andado en el camino de los reyes de Israel, y has hecho que fornicase Judá, y los moradores de Jerusalem, como fornicó la casa de Achâb; y además has muerto á tus hermanos, á la familia de tu padre, los cuales eran mejores que tú:

14He aquí Jehová herirá tu pueblo de una grande plaga, y á tus hijos y á tus mujeres, y á toda tu hacienda;

15Y á ti con muchas enfermedades, con enfermedad de tus entrañas, hasta que las entrañas se te salgan á causa de la enfermedad de cada día.

16Entonces despertó Jehová contra Joram el espíritu de los Filisteos, y de los Arabes que estaban junto á los Etiopes;

17Y subieron contra Judá, é invadieron la tierra, y tomaron toda la hacienda que hallaron en la casa del rey, y á sus hijos, y á sus mujeres; que no le quedó hijo, sino Joachâz el menor de sus hijos.

18Después de todo esto Jehová lo hirió en las entrañas de una enfermedad incurable.

19Y aconteció que, pasando un día tras otro, al fin, al cabo de dos años, las entrañas se le salieron con la enfermedad, muriendo así de enfermedad muy penosa. Y no le hizo quema su pueblo, como las había hecho á sus padres.

20Cuando comenzó á reinar era de treinta y dos años, y reinó en Jerusalem ocho años; y fuése sin ser deseado. Y sepultáronlo en la ciudad de David, mas no en los sepulcros de los reyes.

King James Version

1Now Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son reigned in his stead.

2And he had brethren the sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah: all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.

3And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah: but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram; because he was the firstborn.

4Now when Jehoram was risen up to the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself, and slew all his brethren with the sword, and divers also of the princes of Israel.

5Jehoram was thirty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

6And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, like as did the house of Ahab: for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife: and he wrought that which was evil in the eyes of the LORD.

7Howbeit the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a light to him and to his sons for ever.

8In his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of Judah, and made themselves a king.

9Then Jehoram went forth with his princes, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him in, and the captains of the chariots.

10So the Edomites revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. The same time also did Libnah revolt from under his hand; because he had forsaken the LORD God of his fathers.

11Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Judah thereto.

12And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,

13But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring, like to the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father’s house, which were better than thyself:

14Behold, with a great plague will the LORD smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy goods:

15And thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day.

16Moreover the LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, that were near the Ethiopians:

17And they came up into Judah, and brake into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king’s house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was never a son left him, save Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.

18And after all this the LORD smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.

19And it came to pass, that in process of time, after the end of two years, his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness: so he died of sore diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.

20Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years, and departed without being desired. Howbeit they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.

World English Bible

1Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in David’s city; and Jehoram his son reigned in his place.

2He had brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah. All these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.

3Their father gave them great gifts of silver, of gold, and of precious things, with fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.

4Now when Jehoram had risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he killed all his brothers with the sword, and also some of the princes of Israel.

5Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

6He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did Ahab’s house, for he had Ahab’s daughter as his wife. He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight.

7However the LORD would not destroy David’s house, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a lamp to him and to his children always.

8In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.

9Then Jehoram went there with his captains and all his chariots with him. He rose up by night and struck the Edomites who surrounded him, along with the captains of the chariots.

10So Edom has been in revolt from under the hand of Judah to this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time from under his hand, because he had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.

11Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and made the inhabitants of Jerusalem play the prostitute, and led Judah astray.

12A letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, “the LORD, the God of David your father, says, ‘Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,

13but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the prostitute like Ahab’s house did, and also have slain your brothers of your father’s house, who were better than yourself,

14behold, the LORD will strike your people with a great plague, including your children, your wives, and all your possessions;

15and you will have great sickness with a disease of your bowels, until your bowels fall out by reason of the sickness, day by day.’”

16The LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and of the Arabians who are beside the Ethiopians;

17and they came up against Judah, broke into it, and carried away all the possessions that were found in the king’s house, including his sons and his wives, so that there was no son left to him except Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.

18After all this the LORD struck him in his bowels with an incurable disease.

19In process of time, at the end of two years, his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness, and he died of severe diseases. His people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.

20He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. He departed with no one’s regret. They buried him in David’s city, but not in the tombs of the kings.
