Old Testament
1 And Jehoshaphat rested with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David. Then Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
1 ΚΑΙ ἐκοιμήθη Ἰωσαφὰτ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν πόλει Δαυίδ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωρὰμ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ' αὐτοῦ.
2 He had brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azaryahu, Michael, and Shephatiah; all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
2 καὶ αὐτῷ ἀδελφοὶ υἱοὶ Ἰωσαφὰτ ἕξ, Ἀζαρίας καὶ Ἰεϊὴλ καὶ Ζαχαρίας καὶ Ἀζαρίας καὶ Μιχαὴλ καὶ Σαφατίας· πάντες οὗτοι υἱοὶ Ἰωσαφὰτ βασιλέως Ἰούδα.
3 Their father gave them great gifts of silver and gold and precious things, with fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.
3 καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ὁ πατὴρ αὐτῶν δόματα πολλά, ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον καὶ ὅπλα μετὰ τῶν πόλεων τετειχισμένων ἐν Ἰούδᾳ· καὶ τὴν βασιλείαν ἔδωκε τῷ Ἰωράμ, ὅτι οὗτος ὁ πρωτότοκος.
4 Now when Jehoram was established over the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself and killed all his brothers with the sword, and also others of the princes of Israel.
4 καὶ ἀνέστη Ἰωρὰμ ἐπὶ τὴν βασιλείαν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκραταιώθη καὶ ἀπέκτεινε πάντας τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐν ρομφαίᾳ καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀρχόντων Ἰσραήλ.
5 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
5 ὄντος αὐτοῦ τριάκοντα καὶ δύο ἐτῶν, κατέστη Ἰωρὰμ ἐπὶ τὴν βασιλείαν αὐτοῦ καὶ ὀκτὼ ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ.
6 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done, for he had the daughter of Ahab as a wife; and he did evil in the sight of the LORD.
6 καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ βασιλέων Ἰσραήλ, ὡς ἐποίησεν οἶκος Ἀχαάβ, ὅτι θυγάτηρ Ἀχαὰβ ἦν αὐτοῦ γυνή, καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐναντίον Κυρίου.
7 Yet the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that He had made with David, and since He had promised to give a lamp to him and to his sons forever.
7 καὶ οὐκ ἐβούλετο Κύριος ἐξολοθρεῦσαι τὸν οἶκον Δαυὶδ διὰ τὴν διαθήκην, ἣν διέθετο τῷ Δαυίδ, καὶ ὡς εἶπεν αὐτῷ δοῦναι αὐτῷ λύχνον καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας.
8 In his days Edom revolted against Judah’s authority, and made a king over themselves.
8 ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ἀπέστη Ἐδὼμ ἀπὸ τοῦ Ἰούδα καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν ἐφ' ἑαυτοὺς βασιλέα.
9 So Jehoram went out with his officers, and all his chariots with him. And he rose by night and attacked the Edomites who had surrounded him and the captains of the chariots.
9 καὶ ᾤχετο Ἰωρὰμ μετὰ τῶν ἀρχόντων καὶ πᾶσα ἡ ἵππος μετ' αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐγένετο καὶ ἠγέρθη νυκτὸς καὶ ἐπάταξεν Ἐδὼμ τὸν κυκλοῦντα αὐτὸν καὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας τῶν ἁρμάτων, καὶ ἔφυγεν ὁ λαὸς εἰς τὰ σκηνώματα αὐτῶν.
10 Thus Edom has been in revolt against Judah’s authority to this day. At that time Libnah revolted against his rule, because he had forsaken the LORD God of his fathers.
10 καὶ ἀπέστη ἀπὸ Ἰούδα Ἐδὼμ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης· τότε ἀπέστη Λομνὰ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἀπὸ χειρὸς αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἐγκατέλιπε Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ·
11 Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit harlotry, and led Judah astray.
11 καὶ γὰρ αὐτὸς ἐποίησεν ὑψηλὰ ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν Ἰούδα καὶ ἐξεπόρνευσε τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ ἀπεπλάνησε τὸν Ἰούδαν.
12 And a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus says the LORD God of your father David: Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, or in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
12 καὶ ἦλθεν αὐτῷ ἐν γραφῇ παρὰ Ἠλιοὺ τοῦ προφήτου λέγων· τάδε λέγει Κύριος Θεὸς Δαυὶδ τοῦ πατρός σου· ἀνθ' ὧν οὐκ ἐπορεύθης ἐν ὁδῷ Ἰωσαφὰτ τοῦ πατρός σου καὶ ἐν ὁδοῖς Ἀσὰ βασιλέως Ἰούδα
13 but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the harlot like the harlotry of the house of Ahab, and also have killed your brothers, those of your father’s household, who were better than yourself,
13 καὶ ἐπορεύθης ἐν ὁδοῖς βασιλέων Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἐξεπόρνευσας τὸν Ἰούδαν καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ, ὡς ἐξεπόρνευσεν οἶκος Ἀχαάβ, καὶ τοὺς ἀδελφούς σου υἱοὺς τοῦ πατρός σου τοὺς ἀγαθοὺς ὑπὲρ σὲ ἀπέκτεινας,
14 behold, the LORD will strike your people with a serious affliction—your children, your wives, and all your possessions;
14 ἰδοὺ Κύριος πατάξει σε πληγὴν μεγάλην ἐν τῷ λαῷ σου καὶ ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς σου καὶ ἐν γυναιξί σου καὶ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ ἀποσκευῇ σου.
15 and you will become very sick with a disease of your intestines, until your intestines come out by reason of the sickness, day by day.
15 καὶ σὺ ἐν μαλακίᾳ πονηρᾷ, ἐν νόσῳ κοιλίας, ἕως οὗ ἐξέλθῃ ἡ κοιλία σου μετὰ τῆς μαλακίας ἐξ ἡμερῶν εἰς ἡμέρας.
16 Moreover the LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and the Arabians who were near the Ethiopians.
16 καὶ ἐπήγειρε Κύριος ἐπὶ Ἰωρὰμ τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους καὶ τοὺς Ἄραβας καὶ τοὺς ὁμόρους τῶν Αἰθιόπων,
17 And they came up into Judah and invaded it, and carried away all the possessions that were found in the king’s house, and also his sons and his wives, so that there was not a son left to him except Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
17 καὶ ἀνέβησαν ἐπὶ Ἰούδαν καὶ κατεδυνάστευον καὶ ἀπέστρεψαν πᾶσαν τὴν ἀποσκευήν, ἣν εὗρον ἐν οἴκῳ τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐ κατελείφθη αὐτῷ υἱός, ἀλλ' ἢ Ὀχοζίας ὁ μικρότατος τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ.
18 After all this the LORD struck him in his intestines with an incurable disease.
18 καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα πάντα ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν Κύριος εἰς τὴν κοιλίαν μαλακίαν, ᾗ οὐκ ἔστιν ἰατρεία.
19 Then it happened in the course of time, after the end of two years, that his intestines came out because of his sickness; so he died in severe pain. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning for his fathers.
19 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐξ ἡμερῶν εἰς ἡμέρας, καὶ ὡς ἦλθε καιρὸς τῶν ἡμερῶν ἡμέρας δύο, ἐξῆλθεν ἡ κοιλία αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῆς νόσου, καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἐν μαλακίᾳ πονηρᾷ. καὶ οὐκ ἐποίησεν ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ ἐκφορὰν καθὼς ἐκφορὰν πατέρων αὐτοῦ.
20 He was thirty-two years old when he became king. He reigned in Jerusalem eight years and, to no one’s sorrow, departed. However they buried him in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
20 ἦν τριάκοντα καὶ δύο ἐτῶν, ὅτε ἐβασίλευσε, καὶ ὀκτὼ ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ· καὶ ἐπορεύθη οὐκ ἐν ἐπαίνῳ καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν πόλει Δαυὶδ καὶ οὐκ ἐν τάφοις τῶν βασιλέων.
