역대하 16

1아사 왕 삼십육년에 이스라엘 왕 바아사가 유다를 치러 올라와서 라마를 건축하여 사람을 유다 왕 아사에게 왕래하지 못하게 하려한지라 2아사가 여호와의 전 곳간과 왕궁 곳간의 은금을 취하여 다메섹에 거한 아람 왕 벤하닷에게 보내며 가로되 3내 부친과 당신의 부친 사이에와 같이 나와 당신 사이에 약조하자 내가 당신에게 은금을 보내노니 와서 이스라엘 왕 바아사와 세운 약조를 깨뜨려서 저로 나를 떠나게 하라 하매 4벤하닷이 아사 왕의 말을 듣고 그 군대 장관들을 보내어 이스라엘 두어 성읍을 치되 이욘과 단과 아벨마임과 납달리의 모든 국고성을 쳤더니 5바아사가 듣고 라마 건축하는 일을 파하여 그 공역을 그친지라 6아사 왕이 온 유다 무리를 거느리고 바아사가 라마를 건축하던 돌과 재목을 수운하여다가 게바와 미스바를 건축하였더라 7때에 선견자 하나니가 유다 왕 아사에게 나아와서 이르되 왕이 아람 왕을 의지하고 왕의 하나님 여호와를 의지하지 아니한고로 아람 왕의 군대가 왕의 손에서 벗어났나이다 8구스 사람과 룹 사람의 군대가 크지 아니하며 말과 병거가 심히 많지 아니하더이까 그러나 왕이 여호와를 의지한고로 여호와께서 왕의 손에 붙이셨나이다 9여호와의 눈은 온 땅을 두루 감찰하사 전심으로 자기에게 향하는 자를 위하여 능력을 베푸시나니 이 일은 왕이 망령되이 행하였은즉 이후부터는 왕에게 전쟁이 있으리이다 하매 10아사가 노하여 선견자를 옥에 가두었으니 이는 그 말에 크게 노하였음이며 그 때에 아사가 또 몇 백성을 학대하였더라 11아사의 시종 행적은 유다와 이스라엘 열왕기에 기록되니라 12아사가 왕이 된지 삼십구년에 그 발이 병들어 심히 중하나 병이 있을 때에 저가 여호와께 구하지 아니하고 의원들에게 구하였더라 13아사가 위에 있은지 사십일년에 죽어 그 열조와 함께 자매 14다윗 성에 자기를 위하여 파 두었던 묘실에 무리가 장사하되 그 시체를 법대로 만든 각양 향재료를 가득히 채운 상에 두고 또 위하여 많이 분향하였더라

1In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa, Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow anyone to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah. 2Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of Yahweh’s house and of the king’s house, and sent to Ben Hadad king of Syria, who lived at Damascus, saying, 3“Let there be a treaty between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent you silver and gold. Go, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.” 4Ben Hadad listened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they struck Ijon, and Dan, and Abel Maim, and all the storage cities of Naphtali. 5When Baasha heard of it, he stopped building Ramah, and let his work cease. 6Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and its timber, with which Baasha had built; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah. 7At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him, “Because you have relied on the king of Syria, and have not relied on Yahweh your God, therefore is the army of the king of Syria escaped out of your hand. 8Weren’t the Ethiopians and the Lubim a huge army, with chariots and horsemen exceeding many? Yet, because you relied on Yahweh, he delivered them into your hand. 9For the eyes of Yahweh run back and forth throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein you have done foolishly; for from henceforth you shall have wars.” 10Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in the prison; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. Asa oppressed some of the people at the same time. 11Behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel. 12In the thirty-ninth year of his reign Asa was diseased in his feet; his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he didn’t seek Yahweh, but to the physicians. 13Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign. 14They buried him in his own tombs, which he had dug out for himself in the city of David, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odors and various kinds of spices prepared by the perfumers’ art: and they made a very great burning for him.

1In het zes en dertigste jaar van het koninkrijk van Asa, toog Baesa, de koning van Israel, op tegen Juda, en bouwde Rama, opdat hij niemand toeliet uit te gaan en in te komen tot Asa, den koning van Juda. 2Toen bracht Asa het zilver en het goud voort, uit de schatten van het huis des HEEREN en van het huis des konings, en zond tot Benhadad, den koning van Syrie, die te Damaskus woonde, zeggende: 3Er is een verbond tussen mij en tussen u, en tussen mijn vader en tussen uw vader; zie, ik zend u zilver en goud, ga heen, maak uw verbond te niet met Baesa, den koning van Israel, dat hij van tegen mij aftrekke. 4En Benhadad hoorde naar den koning Asa, en zond de oversten der heiren, die hij had, tegen de steden van Israel, en zij sloegen Ijon, en Dan, en Abel-Maim, en alle schatsteden van Nafthali. 5En het geschiedde, als Baesa zulks hoorde, dat hij afliet van Rama te bouwen, en zijn werk staakte. 6Toen nam de koning Asa gans Juda, en zij droegen weg de stenen van Rama, en het hout daarvan, waarmede Baesa gebouwd had; en hij bouwde daarmede Geba en Mizpa. 7En in denzelfden tijd kwam de ziener Hanani tot Asa, den koning van Juda, en hij zeide tot hem: Omdat gij gesteund hebt op den koning van Syrie, en niet gesteund hebt op den HEERE, uw God, daarom is het heir des konings van Syrie uit uw hand ontkomen. 8Waren niet de Moren en de Libiers een groot heir met zeer veel wagenen en ruiteren? Toen gij nochtans op den HEERE steundet, heeft Hij hen in uw hand gegeven. 9Want den HEERE aangaande, Zijn ogen doorlopen de ganse aarde, om Zich sterk te bewijzen aan degenen, welker hart volkomen is tot Hem; gij hebt hierin zottelijk gedaan; want van nu af zullen oorlogen tegen u zijn. 10Doch Asa werd toornig tegen den ziener, en leidde hem in het gevangenhuis; want hij was hierover tegen hem ontsteld; daartoe onderdrukte Asa enigen uit het volk ter zelfder tijd. 11En ziet, de geschiedenissen van Asa, de eerste met de laatste, ziet, zij zijn beschreven in het boek der koningen van Juda en Israel. 12Asa nu werd, in het negen en dertigste jaar van zijn koninkrijk, krank aan zijn voeten; tot op het hoogste toe was zijn krankheid; daartoe ook zocht hij den HEERE niet in zijn krankheid, maar de medicijnmeesters. 13Alzo ontsliep Asa met zijn vaderen; en hij stierf in het een en veertigste jaar zijner regering. 14En zij begroeven hem in zijn graf, dat hij voor zich gegraven had in de stad Davids, en legden hem op het bed, hetwelk hij gevuld had met specerijen, en dat van verscheidene soorten, naar apothekerskunst toebereid; en zij brandden over hem een ganse grote branding.
