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.

¹Ja Joosafat läks magama oma vanemate juurde ning ta maeti oma vanemate juurde Taaveti linna. Ja tema poeg Jooram sai tema asemel kuningaks.

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.

²Temal olid vennad, Joosafati pojad: Asarja, Jehiel, Sakarja, Asarjahu, Miikael ja Sefatja; need kõik olid Iisraeli kuninga Joosafati pojad.

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.

³Nende isa oli neile andnud suuri kingitusi, hõbedat, kulda ja kalleid asju ühes kindlustatud linnadega Juudas; aga kuningriigi andis ta Jooramile, sest tema oli esmasündinu.

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.

⁴Kui Jooram oli tõusnud oma isa aujärjele ja oli ennast kindlustanud, siis ta tappis mõõgaga kõik oma vennad, samuti ka mõned Jeruusalemma vürstidest.

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

⁵Jooram oli kuningaks saades kolmkümmend kaks aastat vana ja ta valitses Jeruusalemmas kaheksa aastat.

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.

⁶Aga ta käis Iisraeli kuningate teed, nõnda nagu Ahabi sugu oli teinud, sest tal oli Ahabi tütar naiseks; ja ta tegi kurja Issanda silmis.

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.

⁷Kuid Issand ei tahtnud Taaveti sugu hävitada lepingu pärast, mille ta Taavetiga oli teinud, ja sellepärast et ta temale ja ta poegadele oli tõotanud anda lambi kõigiks aegadeks.

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

⁸Tema ajal taganesid edomlased Juuda käe alt ja tõstsid endile kuninga.

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.

⁹Siis läks Jooram oma pealikutega sinna ja tal olid kaasas kõik sõjavankrid; ta tõusis öösel ja lõi edomlasi, kes olid piiranud teda ja sõjavankrite pealikuid.

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.

¹⁰Siiski on Edom tänapäevani taganenud Juuda käe alt; sel ajal taganes ka Libna tema käe alt, kuna ta oli hüljanud Issanda, oma vanemate Jumala.

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

¹¹Temagi tegi ohvrikünkaid Juuda mäestikku, saatis Jeruusalemma elanikud kõlvatust tegema ja eksitas Juudat.

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,

¹²Aga temale tuli prohvet Eelijalt kiri, milles öeldi: 'Nõnda ütleb Issand, su isa Taaveti Jumal: Sellepärast et sa ei ole käinud oma isa Joosafati teedel ega Juuda kuninga Aasa teedel,

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:

¹³vaid oled käinud Iisraeli kuningate teed ja oled saatnud Juuda ja Jeruusalemma elanikud kõlvatust tegema, nõnda nagu Ahabi sugu saatis kõlvatust tegema, ja ka sellepärast, et sa oled tapnud oma isa perest oma vennad, kes olid paremad kui sina,

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

¹⁴vaata, sellepärast nuhtleb Issand suure nuhtlusega su rahvast, su poegi, su naisi ja kogu su omandit,

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

¹⁵ja sind ennast raskete haigustega, su sisikonna haigusega, kuni su sisikond on haiguse tõttu aja jooksul välja tulnud!'

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

¹⁶Ja Issand äratas Joorami vastu vilistite ja araablaste vaimu, kes asusid etiooplaste naabruses,

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.

¹⁷ja need tulid üles Juudasse, tungisid sisse ja viisid ära kogu varanduse, mis leidus kuningakojas, ka tema pojad ja naised, nõnda et temale ei jäänud muud poega kui Jooahas, tema kõige noorem poeg.

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

¹⁸Ja pärast kõike seda nuhtles Issand teda ravimatu sisikonnahaigusega:

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.

¹⁹aja jooksul, kahe aasta möödudes, tuli ta sisikond haiguse tõttu välja ja ta suri pahaloomulisse haigusesse. Aga tema rahvas ei põletanud tema auks koolnusuitsutust, nagu oli põletatud tema vanemate auks.

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.

²⁰Ta oli kuningaks saades kolmkümmend kaks aastat vana ja ta valitses Jeruusalemmas kaheksa aastat; ta läks ära, ilma et temast oleks hoolitud, ta maeti Taaveti linna, aga mitte kuningate hauda.
