열왕기상 14

1그 때에 여로보암의 아들 아비야가 병든지라 2여로보암이 그 아내에게 이르되 청컨대 일어나 변장하여 사람으로 그대가 여로보암의 아내임을 알지 못하게 하고 실로로 가라 거기 선지자 아히야가 있나니 저는 이전에 내가 이 백성의 왕이 될 것을 내게 고한 사람이니라 3그대의 손에 떡 열과 과자와 꿀 한병을 가지고 그에게로 가라 저가 그대에게 이 아이의 어떻게 될 것을 알게 하리라 4여로보암의 아내가 그대로 하여 일어나 실로로 가서 아히야의 집에 이르니 아히야는 나이로 인하여 눈이 어두워 보지 못하더라 5여호와께서 아히야에게 이르시되 여로보암의 아내가 그 아들이 병듦을 인하여 네게 물으러 오나니 너는 이리이리 대답하라 저가 들어올 때에 다른 사람인 체 함이니라 6저가 문으로 들어올 때에 아히야가 그 발소리를 듣고 말하되 여로보암의 처여 들어오라 네가 어찌하여 다른 사람인 체 하느뇨 내가 명령을 받아 흉한 일로 네게 고하리니 7가서 여로보암에게 고하라 이스라엘 하나님 여호와의 말씀이 내가 너를 백성 중에서 들어 내 백성 이스라엘의 주권자가 되게 하고 8나라를 다윗의 집에서 찢어 내어 네게 주었거늘 너는 내 종 다윗이 나의 명령을 지켜 전심으로 나를 좇으며 나 보기에 정직한 일만 행하였음과 같지 아니하고 9너의 이전 사람들보다도 악을 행하고 가서 너를 위하여 다른 신을 만들며 우상을 부어 만들어 나의 노를 격발하고 나를 네 등 뒤에 버렸도다 10그러므로 내가 여로보암의 집에 재앙을 내려 여로보암에게 속한 사내는 이스라엘 가운데 매인 자나 놓인 자나 다 끊어 버리되 거름을 쓸어 버림 같이 여로보암의 집을 말갛게 쓸어 버릴지라 11여로보암에게 속한 자가 성에서 죽은즉 개가 먹고 들에서 죽은즉 공중의 새가 먹으리니 이는 여호와가 말하였음이니라 하셨나니 12너는 일어나 네 집으로 가라 네 발이 성에 들어갈 때에 그 아이가 죽을지라 13온 이스라엘이 저를 위하여 슬퍼하며 장사하려니와 여로보암에게 속한 자는 오직 이 아이만 묘실에 들어가리니 이는 여로보암의 집 가운데서 저가 이스라엘 하나님 여호와를 향하여 선한 뜻을 품었음이니라 14여호와께서 이스라엘의 위에 한 왕을 일으키신즉 저가 그 날에 여로보암의 집을 끊어 버리리라 어느 때냐 곧 이제라 15여호와께서 이스라엘을 쳐서 물에서 흔들리는 갈대 같이 되게 하시고 이스라엘을 그 열조에게 주신 이 좋은 땅에서 뽑아 저희를 하수 밖으로 흩으시리니 저희가 아세라 목상을 만들어 여호와를 진노케 하였음이니라 16여호와께서 여로보암의 죄로 인하여 이스라엘을 버리시리니 이는 저도 범죄하고 이스라엘로 범죄케 하였음이니라 하니라 17여로보암의 처가 일어나 디르사로 돌아가서 집 문지방에 이를 때에 아이가 죽은지라 18온 이스라엘이 저를 장사하고 저를 위하여 슬퍼하니 여호와께서 그 종 선지자 아히야로 하신 말씀과 같이 되었더라 19여로보암의 그 남은 행적 곧 저가 어떻게 싸운 것과 어떻게 다스린 것은 이스라엘 왕 역대지략에 기록되니라 20여로보암이 왕이 된지 이십이 년이라 저가 그 열조와 함께 자매 그 아들 나답이 대신하여 왕이 되니라 21솔로몬의 아들 르호보암은 유다 왕이 되었으니 르호보암이 위에 나아갈 때에 나이 사십일 세라 여호와께서 자기 이름을 두시려고 이스라엘 모든 지파 가운데서 빼신 성 예루살렘에서 십칠 년을 치리하니라 그 모친의 이름은 나아마라 암몬 사람이더라 22유다가 여호와 보시기에 악을 행하되 그 열조의 행한 모든 일보다 뛰어나게 하여 그 범한 죄로 여호와의 노를 격발하였으니 23이는 저희도 산 위에와 모든 푸른 나무 아래 산당과 우상과 아세라 목상을 세웠음이라 24그 땅에 또 남색하는 자가 있었고 여호와께서 이스라엘 자손 앞에서 쫓아내신 국민의 모든 가증한 일을 무리가 본받아 행하였더라 25르호보암 왕 제오년에 애굽 왕 시삭이 올라와서 예루살렘을 치고 26여호와의 전의 보물과 왕궁의 보물을 몰수히 빼앗고 또 솔로몬의 만든 금방패를 다 빼앗은지라 27르호보암 왕이 그 대신 놋으로 방패를 만들어 왕궁 문을 지키는 시위대 장관의 손에 맡기매 28왕이 여호와의 전에 들어갈 때마다 시위하는 자가 그 방패를 들고 갔다가 시위소로 도로 가져갔더라 29르호보암의 남은 사적과 무릇 그 행한 일이 유다 왕 역대지략에 기록되지 아니하였느냐 30르호보암과 여로보암 사이에 항상 전쟁이 있으니라 31르호보암이 그 열조와 함께 자니 그 열조와 함께 다윗 성에 장사되니라 그 모친의 이름은 나아마라 암몬 사람이더라 그 아들 아비얌이 대신하여 왕이 되니라

1At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick. 2Jeroboam said to his wife, “Please get up and disguise yourself, that you won’t be recognized as the wife of Jeroboam. Go to Shiloh. Behold, there is Ahijah the prophet, who spoke concerning me that I should be king over this people. 3Take with you ten loaves, and cakes, and a jar of honey, and go to him. He will tell you what will become of the child.” 4Jeroboam’s wife did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah. Now Ahijah could not see; for his eyes were set by reason of his age. 5Yahweh said to Ahijah, “Behold, the wife of Jeroboam comes to inquire of you concerning her son; for he is sick. Thus and thus you shall tell her; for it will be, when she comes in, that she will pretend to be another woman.” 6It was so, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, that he said, “Come in, you wife of Jeroboam! Why do you pretend to be another? For I am sent to you with heavy news. 7Go, tell Jeroboam, ‘Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel: “Because I exalted you from among the people, and made you prince over my people Israel, 8and tore the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it you; and yet you have not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in my eyes, 9but have done evil above all who were before you, and have gone and made you other gods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and have cast me behind your back: 10therefore, behold, I will bring evil on the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam everyone who urinates on a wall, he who is shut up and he who is left at large in Israel, and will utterly sweep away the house of Jeroboam, as a man sweeps away dung, until it is all gone. 11He who dies of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and he who dies in the field shall the birds of the sky eat: for Yahweh has spoken it.”’ 12Arise therefore, and go to your house. When your feet enter into the city, the child shall die. 13All Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him; for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found some good thing toward Yahweh, the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam. 14Moreover Yahweh will raise him up a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam. This is day! What? Even now. 15For Yahweh will strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water; and he will root up Israel out of this good land which he gave to their fathers, and will scatter them beyond the River, because they have made their Asherah poles, provoking Yahweh to anger. 16He will give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, which he has sinned, and with which he has made Israel to sin.” 17Jeroboam’s wife arose, and departed, and came to Tirzah. As she came to the threshold of the house, the child died. 18All Israel buried him, and mourned for him, according to Yahweh’s word, which he spoke by his servant Ahijah the prophet. 19The rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he fought, and how he reigned, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel. 20The days which Jeroboam reigned were two and twenty years: and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his place. 21Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which Yahweh had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there: and his mother’s name was Naamah the Ammonitess. 22Judah did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and they provoked him to jealousy with their sins which they committed, above all that their fathers had done. 23For they also built them high places, and pillars, and Asherah poles, on every high hill, and under every green tree; 24and there were also sodomites in the land: they did according to all the abominations of the nations which Yahweh drove out before the children of Israel. 25In the fifth year of king Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem; 26and he took away the treasures of Yahweh’s house, and the treasures of the king’s house; he even took away all: and he took away all the shields of gold which Solomon had made. 27King Rehoboam made in their place shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who kept the door of the king’s house. 28It was so, that as often as the king went into Yahweh’s house, the guard bore them, and brought them back into the guard room. 29Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? 30There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually. 31Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and his mother’s name was Naamah the Ammonitess. Abijam his son reigned in his place.

1Te dierzelfder tijd was Abia, de zoon van Jerobeam, krank. 2En Jerobeam zeide tot zijn huisvrouw: Maak u nu op, en verstel u, dat men niet merkte, dat gij Jerobeams huisvrouw zijt, en ga heen naar Silo, zie, daar is de profeet Ahia, die van mij gesproken heeft, dat ik koning zou zijn over dit volk. 3En neem in uw hand tien broden, en koeken, en een kruik honig, en ga tot hem; hij zal u te kennen geven, wat dezen jongen geschieden zal. 4En Jerobeams huisvrouw deed alzo, en maakte zich op, en ging naar Silo, en kwam in het huis van Ahia. Ahia nu kon niet zien, want zijn ogen stonden stijf vanwege zijn ouderdom. 5Maar de HEERE zeide tot Ahia: Zie, Jerobeams huisvrouw komt, om een zaak van u te vragen, aangaande haar zoon, want hij is krank; zo en zo zult gij tot haar spreken, en het zal zijn, als zij inkomt, dat zij zich vreemd aanstellen zal. 6En het geschiedde, als Ahia het geruis harer voeten hoorde, toen zij ter deure inkwam, dat hij zeide: Kom in, gij huisvrouw van Jerobeam! Waarom stelt gij u dus vreemd aan? Want ik ben tot u gezonden met een harde boodschap. 7Ga heen, zeg Jerobeam: Zo zegt de HEERE, de God Israels: Daarom, dat Ik u verheven heb uit het midden des volks, en u tot een voorganger over Mijn volk Israel gesteld heb; 8En het koninkrijk van het huis van David gescheurd, en dat u gegeven heb, en gij niet geweest zijt, gelijk Mijn knecht David, die Mijn geboden hield, en die Mij met zijn ganse hart navolgde, om te doen alleen wat recht is in Mijn ogen; 9Maar kwaad gedaan hebt, doende des meer dan allen, die voor u geweest zijn, en henengegaan zijt, en hebt u andere goden en gegotene beelden gemaakt, om Mij tot toorn te verwekken, en hebt Mij achter uw rug geworpen; 10Daarom, zie, Ik zal kwaad over het huis van Jerobeam brengen, en van Jerobeam uitroeien, wat mannelijk is, den beslotene en verlatene in Israel; en Ik zal de nakomelingen van het huis van Jerobeam wegdoen, gelijk de drek weggedaan wordt, totdat het ganselijk vergaan zij. 11Die van Jerobeam in de stad sterft, zullen de honden eten; en die in het veld sterft, zullen de vogelen des hemels eten; want de HEERE heeft het gesproken. 12Gij dan maak u op, ga naar uw huis; als uw voeten in de stad zullen gekomen zijn, zo zal het kind sterven. 13En gans Israel zal hem beklagen, en hem begraven; want deze alleen van Jerobeam zal in het graf komen, omdat in hem wat goeds voor den HEERE, den God Israels, in het huis van Jerobeam gevonden is. 14Doch de HEERE zal Zich een koning verwekken over Israel, die het huis van Jerobeam ten zelfden dage uitroeien zal; maar wat zal het ook nu zijn? 15De HEERE zal ook Israel slaan, gelijk een riet in het water omgedreven wordt, en zal Israel uitrukken uit dit goede land, dat Hij hun vaderen gegeven heeft, en zal hen verstrooien op gene zijde der rivier; daarom dat zij hun bossen gemaakt hebben, den HEERE tot toorn verwekkende. 16En Hij zal Israel overgeven, om Jerobeams zonden wil, die gezondigd heeft, en die Israel heeft doen zondigen. 17Toen maakte zich Jerobeams vrouw op, en ging heen, en kwam te Thirza; als zij nu op den dorpel van het huis kwam, zo stierf de jongeling. 18En zij begroeven hem, en gans Israel beklaagde hem; naar het woord des HEEREN, dat Hij gesproken had door den dienst van Zijn knecht Ahia, den profeet. 19Het overige nu der geschiedenissen van Jerobeam, hoe hij gekrijgd, en hoe hij geregeerd heeft, ziet, die zijn geschreven in het boek der kronieken der koningen van Israel. 20De dagen nu, die Jerobeam heeft geregeerd, zijn twee en twintig jaren; en hij ontsliep met zijn vaderen, en Nadab, zijn zoon, regeerde in zijn plaats. 21Rehabeam nu, de zoon van Salomo, regeerde in Juda; een en veertig jaren was Rehabeam oud, als hij koning werd, en regeerde zeventien jaren te Jeruzalem, in de stad, die de HEERE verkoren had uit al de stammen van Israel, om Zijn Naam daar te zetten; en de naam zijner moeder was Naama, de Ammonietische. 22En Juda deed wat kwaad was in de ogen des HEEREN, en zij verwekten Hem tot ijver, meer dan al hun vaderen gedaan hadden, met hun zonden, die zij zondigden. 23Want ook zij bouwden zich hoogten, en opgerichte beelden, en bossen, op allen hogen heuvel, en onder allen groenen boom. 24Er waren ook schandjongens in het land; zij deden naar al de gruwelen der heidenen, die de HEERE van het aangezicht der kinderen Israels uit de bezitting verdreven had. 25Het geschiedde nu in het vijfde jaar van den koning Rehabeam, dat Sisak, de koning van Egypte, optoog tegen Jeruzalem. 26En hij nam de schatten van het huis des HEEREN, en de schatten van het huis des konings weg, ja, hij nam alles weg; hij nam ook al de gouden schilden weg, die Salomo gemaakt had. 27En de koning Rehabeam maakte, in plaats van die, koperen schilden; en hij beval die onder de hand van de oversten der trawanten, die de deur van het huis des konings bewaarden. 28En het geschiedde, zo wanneer de koning in het huis des HEEREN ging, dat de trawanten dezelve droegen, en die wederbrachten in der trawanten wachtkamer. 29Het overige nu der geschiedenissen van Rehabeam, en al wat hij gedaan heeft, zijn die niet geschreven in het boek der kronieken der koningen van Juda? 30En er was krijg tussen Rehabeam en tussen Jerobeam, al hun dagen. 31En Rehabeam ontsliep met zijn vaderen, en werd begraven bij zijn vaderen in de stad Davids; en de naam zijner moeder was Naama, de Ammonietische; en zijn zoon Abiam regeerde in zijn plaats.
