[5] And the Lord said unto Ahia, Behold, the wife of Jeroboam cometh in to ask a thing of thee for her son; for he is sick: thus and thus shalt thou say unto her: and it shall be, when she cometh in, that she shall feign herself to be another woman.
[6] καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἤκουσεν ᾿Αχιὰ τὴν φωνὴν ποδῶν αὐτῆς, εἰσερχομένης αὐτῆς ἐν τῷ ἀνοίγματι, καὶ εἶπεν· εἴσελθε, γυνὴ ῾Ιεροβοάμ· ἱνατί σὺ τοῦτο ἀποξενοῦσαι; καὶ ἐγώ εἰμι ἀπόστολος πρός σε σκληρός.
[6] And it was so, that Ahia heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, and he said, Come in, thou wife of Jeroboam; why feignest thou thyself to be another? And I am sent to thee with heavy tidings.
[7] πορευθεῖσα εἰπὸν τῷ ῾Ιεροβοάμ· τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ᾿Ισραήλ· ἀνθ᾿ οὗ ὅσον ὕψωσά σε ἀπὸ μέσου λαοῦ καὶ ἔδωκά σε ἡγούμενον ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου ᾿Ισραήλ,
[7] Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and gave thee rule over My people Israel,
[8] καὶ ἔρρηξα σὺν τὸ βασίλειον ἀπὸ τοῦ οἶκου Δαυὶδ καὶ ἔδωκα αὐτό σοι καὶ οὐκ ἐγένου ὡς ὁ δοῦλός μου Δαυίδ, ὃς ἐφύλαξε τὰς ἐντολάς μου καὶ ὃς ἐπορεύθη ὀπίσω μου ἐν πάσῃ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ ποιῆσαι ἕκαστος τὸ εὐθὲς ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς μου
[8] and rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it thee: and yet thou hast not been as My servant David, who kept My commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do only that which was right in Mine eyes;
[9] καὶ ἐπονηρεύσω τοῦ ποιῆσαι παρὰ παντός, ὅσοι ἐγένοντο εἰς πρόσωπόν σου καὶ ἐπορεύθης καὶ ἐποίησας σεαυτῷ θεοὺς ἑτέρους χωνευτὰ τοῦ παροργίσαι με καὶ ἐμὲ ἔρριψας ὀπίσω σώματός σου·
[9] but hast done evil above all that were before thee: for thou hast gone and made thee other gods, and molten images, to provoke Me to anger, and hast cast Me behind thy back:
[10] διὰ τοῦτο ἐγὼ ἄγω κακίαν πρός σε εἰς οἶκον ῾Ιεροβοάμ· ἐξολοθρεύσω τοῦ ῾Ιεροβοὰμ οὐροῦντα πρὸς τοῖχον ἐχόμενον καὶ ἐγκαταλελειμμένον ἐν ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ ἐπιλέξω οἴκου ῾Ιεροβοάμ, καθὼς ἐπιλέγεται ἡ κόπρος, ὡς τελειωθῆναι αὐτόν·
[10] therefore I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel, and will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as a man picketh over dung, until it be all gone.
[11] οἱ τεθνηκότες τοῦ ῾Ιεροβοὰμ ἐν τῇ πόλει, καταφάγονται οἱ κύνες, καὶ τὸν τεθνηκότα ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ καταφάγονται τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, ὅτι Κύριος ἐλάλησε.
[11] Him that dieth of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat: for the Lord hath spoken it.
[12] καὶ σὺ ἀναστᾶσα πορεύθητι εἰς τὸν οἶκόν σου· ἐν τῷ εἰσέρχεσθαι πόδα σου τὴν πόλιν, ἀποθανεῖται τὸ παιδάριον·
[12] But do thou arise, get thee to thine own house: when thy feet enter into the city, the child shall die:
[13] καὶ κόψονται αὐτὸν πᾶς ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ θάψουσιν αὐτόν, ὅτι οὗτος μόνος εἰσελεύσεται τῷ ῾Ιεροβοὰμ πρὸς τάφον, ὅτι εὑρέθη ἐν αὐτῷ ρῆμα καλὸν περὶ τοῦ Κυρίου Θεοῦ ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐν οἴκῳ ῾Ιεροβοάμ·
[13] and all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him, for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him is found some good thing toward the Lord God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.
[14] καὶ ἀναστήσει Κύριος ἑαυτῷ βασιλέα ἐπὶ ᾿Ισραήλ, ὃς πλήξει τὸν οἶκον ῾Ιεροβοάμ ταύτῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ· καὶ τί καὶ νῦν;
[14] And the Lord shall raise Him up a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam that day: but what? even now.
[15] Κύριος πλήξει τὸν ᾿Ισραήλ, καθὰ κινεῖται ὁ ἄνεμος ἐν τῷ ὕδατι, καὶ ἐκτελεῖ τὸν ᾿Ισραὴλ ἀπὸ ἄνω τῆς χθονὸς τῆς ἀγαθῆς ταύτης, ἧς ἔδωκε τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν, καὶ λικμήσει αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ πέραν τοῦ ποταμοῦ· ἀνθ᾿ οὗ ὅσον ἐποίησαν τὰ ἄλση αὐτῶν παροργίζοντες τὸν Κύριον·
[15] The Lord shall smite Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water, and He shall root up Israel out of this good land, which He gave to their fathers, and shall scatter them beyond the river, because they have made their groves, provoking the Lord to anger.
[16] καὶ παραδώσει Κύριος τὸν ᾿Ισραὴλ χάριν ἁμαρτιῶν ῾Ιεροβοάμ, ὃς ἥμαρτε καὶ ὃς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν ᾿Ισραήλ.
[16] And the Lord shall give Israel up, because of the sins of Jeroboam, who did sin, and made Israel to sin.
[17] καὶ ἀνέστη ἡ γυνὴ ῾Ιεροβοὰμ καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς γῆν Σαριρά· καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἰσῆλθεν ἐν τῷ προθύρῳ τοῦ οἴκου καὶ τὸ παιδάριον ἀπέθανε.
[17]And Jeroboam’s wife arose, and departed, and came to Zereda: and it came to pass, when she came to the threshold of the door, that the child died.
[18] καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐκόψαντο αὐτὸν πᾶς ᾿Ισραήλ, κατὰ τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου, ὃ ἐλάλησεν ἐν χειρὶ δούλου αὐτοῦ ᾿Αχιὰ τοῦ προφήτου.
[18] And they buried him; and all Israel mourned for him, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by the hand of His servant Ahia the prophet.
[19] καὶ περισσὸν ρημάτων ῾Ιεροβοάμ, ὅσα ἐπολέμησε καὶ ὅσα ἐβασίλευσεν, ἰδοὺ αὐτὰ γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίου ρημάτων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων ᾿Ισραὴλ.
[19] And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he warred, and how he reigned, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
[20] καὶ αἱ ἡμέραι, ἃς ἐβασίλευσεν ῾Ιεροβοὰμ εἴκοσι δύο ἔτη· καὶ ἐκοιμήθη μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐβασίλευσε Ναβὰτ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
[20] And the days which Jeroboam reigned were two and twenty years: and he slept with his fathers, and Nabat his son reigned in his stead.
[21] Καὶ Ροβοὰμ υἱὸς Σαλωμὼν ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ ᾿Ιούδαν· υἱὸς τεσσαράκοντα καὶ ἑνὸς ἐνιαυτῶν Ροβοὰμ ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν καὶ ἑπτακαίδεκα ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ τῇ πόλει, ἣν ἐξελέξατο Κύριος θέσθαι τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ ἐκ πασῶν φυλῶν τοῦ ᾿Ισραήλ· καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς
αὐτοῦ Νααμὰ ἡ ᾿Αμμωνῖτις.
[21] And Roboam son of Solomon ruled over Juda. Roboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in the city Jerusalem, which the Lord chose to put his name there out of all the tribes of Israel: and his mother’s name was Naama the Ammonitess.
[22] καὶ ἐποίησε Ροβοὰμ τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου καὶ παρεζήλωσεν αὐτὸν ἐν πᾶσιν, οἷς ἐποίησαν οἱ πατέρες αὐτῶν ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτῶν, αἷς ἥμαρτον,
[22] And Roboam did evil in the sight of the Lord; and he provoked him in all the things which their fathers did in their sins which they sinned.
[23] καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν ἑαυτοῖς ὑψηλὰ καὶ στήλας καὶ ἄλση ἐπὶ πάντα βουνὸν ὑψηλὸν καὶ ὑποκάτω παντὸς ξύλου συσκίου.
[23] And they built for themselves high places, and pillars, and planted groves on every high hill, and under every shady tree.
[24] καὶ σύνδεσμος ἐγενήθη ἐν τῇ γῇ, καὶ ἐποίησαν ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν βδελυγμάτων τῶν ἐθνῶν, ὧν ἐξῇρε Κύριος ἀπὸ προσώπου υἱῶν ᾿Ισραήλ.
[24] And there was a conspiracy in the land, and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the Lord removed from before the children of Israel.
[25] καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ τῷ πέμπτῳ βασιλεύοντος Ροβοάμ, ἀνέβη Σουσακὶμ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου ἐπὶ ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ
[25] And it came to pass in the fifth year of the reign of Roboam, Susakim king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem;
[26] καὶ ἔλαβε πάντας τοὺς θησαυροὺς οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ τὰ δόρατα τὰ χρυσᾶ, ἃ ἔλαβε Δαυὶδ ἐκ χειρὸς τῶν παίδων ᾿Αδραζὰρ βασιλέως Σουβά, καὶ εἰσήνεγκεν αὐτὰ εἰς ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ τὰ πάντα, ἃ ἔλαβεν, ὅπλα τὰ χρυσᾶ, ὅσα ἐποίησε Σαλωμών, καὶ ἐπήνεγκεν αὐτὰ εἰς Αἴγυπτον.
[26] and took all the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king’s house, and the golden spears which David took out of the hand of the sons of Adrazaar king of Suba, and brought them into Jerusalem, even all that he took, and the golden shields which Solomon had made, and carried them away into Egypt.
[27] καὶ ἐποίησε Ροβοὰμ ὁ βασιλεὺς ὅπλα χαλκᾶ ἀντ᾿ αὐτῶν. καὶ ἐπέθεντο ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν οἱ ἡγούμενοι τῶν παρατρεχόντων οἱ φυλάσσοντες τὸν πυλῶνα οἴκου βασιλέως.
[27] And king Roboam made brazen shields instead of them; and the chiefs of the body guard, who kept the gate of the house of the king, were placed in charge over them.
[28] καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε εἰσεπορεύετο ὁ βασιλεὺς εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου, καὶ ᾖρον αὐτὰ οἱ παρατρέχοντες καὶ ἀπηρείδοντο αὐτὰ εἰς τὸ θεὲ τῶν παρατρεχόντων.
[28] And it came to pass when the king went into the house of the Lord, that the body guard took them up, and fixed them in the chamber of the body guard.
[29] καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ροβοὰμ καὶ πάντα, ἃ ἐποίησεν, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν ᾿Ιούδα;
[29] And the rest of the history of Roboam, and all that he did, behold, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
[30] καὶ πόλεμος ἦν ἀνὰ μέσον Ροβοὰμ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον ῾Ιεροβοὰμ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας.
[30] And there was war between Roboam and Jeroboam continually.
[31] καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ροβοὰμ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ θάπτεται μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυίδ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ᾿Αβιοὺ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
[31] And Roboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Abiu his son reigned in his stead.
CHAPTER 15
[1] Καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀκτωκαιδεκάτῳ ἔτει βασιλεύοντος Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ βασιλεύει Αβιου υἱὸς Ροβοαμ ἐπὶ Ιουδα
[1] And in the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam son of Nabat, Abiu son of Roboam reigns over Juda.
[2] καὶ ἓξ ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν, καὶ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Μααχα θυγάτηρ Αβεσσαλωμ.
[2] And he reigned three years over Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Maacha, daughter of Abessalom.
[3] καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, αἷς ἐποίησεν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἦν ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ τελεία μετὰ κυρίου θεοῦ αὐτοῦ ὡς ἡ καρδία Δαυιδ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ.
[3] And he walked in the sins of his father which he wrought in his presence, and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of his father David.
[4] ὅτι διὰ Δαυιδ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ κύριος κατάλειμμα, ἵνα στήσῃ τέκνα αὐτοῦ μετ’ αὐτὸν καὶ στήσῃ τὴν Ιερουσαλημ,
[4] Howbeit for David’s sake the Lord gave him a remnant, that he might establish his children after him, and might establish Jerusalem.
[5] ὡς ἐποίησεν Δαυιδ τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον κυρίου, οὐκ ἐξέκλινεν ἀπὸ πάντων, ὧν ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ, πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ζωῆς αὐτοῦ.
[5] Forasmuch as David did that which was right in the sight of the Lord: he turned not from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life.
[7] καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Αβιου καὶ πάντα, ἃ ἐποίησεν, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ιουδα; καὶ πόλεμος ἦν ἀνὰ μέσον Αβιου καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Ιεροβοαμ.
[6] 7 And the rest of the history of Abiu, and all that he did, behold, are not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda? And there was war between Abiu and Jeroboam.
[8] καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Αβιου μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ εἰκοστῷ καὶ τετάρτῳ ἔτει τοῦ Ιεροβοαμ καὶ θάπτεται μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυιδ, καὶ βασιλεύει Ασα υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ αὐτοῦ.
[8] And Abiu slept with his fathers in the twenty-fourth year of Jeroboam; and he is buried with his fathers in the city of David: And Asa his son reigns in his stead.
[9] Ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ τῷ τετάρτῳ καὶ εἰκοστῷ τοῦ Ιεροβοαμ βασιλέως Ισραηλ βασιλεύει Ασα ἐπὶ Ιουδαν
[9] In the four and twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa begins to reign over Juda.
[10] καὶ τεσσαράκοντα καὶ ἓν ἔτος ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ, καὶ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Ανα θυγάτηρ Αβεσσαλωμ.
[10] And he reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Ana, daughter of Abessalom.
[11] καὶ ἐποίησεν Ασα τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον κυρίου ὡς Δαυιδ ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ.
[11] And Asa did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, as David his father.
[12] καὶ ἀφεῖλεν τὰς τελετὰς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν πάντα τὰ ἐπιτηδεύματα, ἃ ἐποίησαν οἱ πατέρες αὐτοῦ.
[12] And he removed the sodomites out of the land, and abolished all the practices which his fathers had kept up.
[13] καὶ τὴν Ανα τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ μετέστησεν τοῦ μὴ εἶναι ἡγουμένην, καθὼς ἐποίησεν σύνοδον ἐν τῷ ἄλσει αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐξέκοψεν Ασα τὰς καταδύσεις αὐτῆς καὶ ἐνέπρησεν πυρὶ ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ Κεδρων.
[13] And he removed Ana his mother from being queen, forasmuch as she gathered a meeting in her grove: and Asa cut down her retreats, and burnt them with fire in the brook of Kedron.
[14] τὰ δὲ ὑψηλὰ οὐκ ἐξῆρεν· πλὴν ἡ καρδία Ασα ἦν τελεία μετὰ κυρίου πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας αὐτοῦ.
[14] But he removed not the high places; nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect with the Lord all his days.
[15] καὶ εἰσήνεγκεν τοὺς κίονας τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς κίονας αὐτοῦ εἰσήνεγκεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον κυρίου, ἀργυροῦς καὶ χρυσοῦς καὶ σκεύη. –
