2 Chronicles 21

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	LXX
1 Jehoshaphat rested with his ancestors; he was buried with them in the City of David. Jehoram, his son, succeeded him as king.	1 και εκοιμηθη ιωσαφατ μετα των πατερων αυτου και εταφη παρα τοις πατρασιν αυτου εν πολει δαυιδ και εβασιλευσεν ιωραμ υιος αυτου αντ' αυτου
2 His brothers, sons of Jehoshaphat, were Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael and Shephatiah; all these were sons of King Jehoshaphat of Judah.	2 και αυτω αδελφοι υιοι ιωσαφατ εξ αζαριας και ιιηλ και ζαχαριας και αζαριας και μιχαηλ και σαφατιας παντες ουτοι υιοι ιωσαφατ βασιλεως ιουδα
3 Their father gave them numerous gifts of silver, gold and precious objects, together with fortified cities in Judah, but the kingship he gave to Jehoram because he was the first-born.	3 και εδωκεν αυτοις ο πατηρ αυτων δοματα πολλα αργυριον και χρυσιον και οπλα μετα πολεων τετειχισμενων εν ιουδα και την βασιλειαν εδωκεν τω ιωραμ οτι ουτος ο πρωτοτοκος
4 When Jehoram had come into his father's kingdom and had consolidated his power, he put to the sword all his brothers and also some of the princes of Israel.	4 και ανεστη ιωραμ επι την βασιλειαν αυτου και εκραταιωθη και απεκτεινεν παντας τους αδελφους αυτου εν ρομφαια και απο των αρχοντων ισραηλ
5 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.	5 οντος αυτου τριακοντα και δυο ετων κατεστη ιωραμ επι την βασιλειαν αυτου και οκτω ετη εβασιλευσεν εν ιερουσαλημ
6 He conducted himself like the kings of Israel of the line of Ahab, because one of Ahab's daughters was his wife. He did evil in the sight of the LORD,	6 και επορευθη εν οδω βασιλεων ισραηλ ως εποιησεν οικος αχααβ οτι θυγατηρ αχααβ ην αυτου γυνη και εποιησεν το πονηρον εναντιον κυριου
7 but the LORD would not destroy the house of David because of the covenant he had made with David and because of his promise to give him and his sons a lamp for all time.	7 και ουκ εβουλετο κυριος εξολεθρευσαι τον οικον δαυιδ δια την διαθηκην ην διεθετο τω δαυιδ και ως ειπεν αυτω δουναι αυτω λυχνον και τοις υιοις αυτου πασας τας ημερας
8 During his time Edom revolted against the sovereignty of Judah; they chose a king of their own.	8 εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις απεστη εδωμ απο του ιουδα και εβασιλευσαν εφ' εαυτους βασιλεα
9 Thereupon Jehoram crossed over with his officers and all the chariots he had. He arose by night and broke through the Edomites when they had surrounded him and the commanders of his chariots.	9 και ωχετο ιωραμ μετα των αρχοντων και πασα η ιππος μετ' αυτου και εγενετο και ηγερθη νυκτος και επαταξεν εδωμ τον κυκλουντα αυτον και τους αρχοντας των αρματων και εφυγεν ο λαος εις τα σκηνωματα αυτων
10 However, Edom has continued in revolt against the sovereignty of Judah down to the present time. Libnah also revolted at that time against Jehoram's sovereignty because he had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.	10 και απεστη απο ιουδα εδωμ εως της ημερας ταυτης τοτε απεστη λομνα εν τω καιρω εκεινω απο χειρος αυτου οτι εγκατελιπεν κυριον θεον των πατερων αυτου
11 He also set up high places in the mountains of Judah; he led the inhabitants of Jerusalem into idolatry and seduced Judah.	11 και γαρ αυτος εποιησεν υψηλα εν πολεσιν ιουδα και εξεπορνευσεν τους κατοικουντας εν ιερουσαλημ και απεπλανησεν τον ιουδαν
12 He received a letter from the prophet Elijah with this message: "Thus says the LORD, the God of your ancestor David: 'Because you have not followed the path of your father Jehoshaphat, nor of Asa, king of Judah,	12 και ηλθεν αυτω εγγραφη παρα ηλιου του προφητου λεγων ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος δαυιδ του πατρος σου ανθ' ων ουκ επορευθης εν οδω ιωσαφατ του πατρος σου και εν οδοις ασα βασιλεως ιουδα
13 but instead have walked in the way of the kings of Israel and have led Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem into idolatry, as did the house of Ahab, and also because you have murdered your brothers of your father's house who were better than you,	13 και επορευθης εν οδοις βασιλεων ισραηλ και εξεπορνευσας τον ιουδαν και τους κατοικουντας εν ιερουσαλημ ως εξεπορνευσεν οικος αχααβ και τους αδελφους σου υιους του πατρος σου τους αγαθους υπερ σε απεκτεινας
14 the LORD will strike your people, your children, your wives, and all that is yours with a great plague;	14 ιδου κυριος παταξει σε πληγην μεγαλην εν τω λαω σου και εν τοις υιοις σου και εν γυναιξιν σου και εν παση τη αποσκευη σου
15 and you shall have severe pains from a disease in your bowels, while your bowels issue forth because of the disease, day after day.'"	15 και συ εν μαλακια πονηρα εν νοσω κοιλιας εως ου εξελθη η κοιλια σου μετα της μαλακιας εξ ημερων εις ημερας
16 Then the LORD stirred up against Jehoram the animosity of the Philistines and of the Arabs who bordered on the Ethiopians.	16 και επηγειρεν κυριος επι ιωραμ τους αλλοφυλους και τους αραβας και τους ομορους των αιθιοπων
17 They came up against Judah, invaded it, and carried away all the wealth found in the king's palace, along with his sons and his wives; there was left to him only one son, Jehoahaz, his youngest.	17 και ανεβησαν επι ιουδαν και κατεδυναστευον και απεστρεψαν πασαν την αποσκευην ην ευρον εν οικω του βασιλεως και τους υιους αυτου και τας θυγατερας αυτου και ου κατελειφθη αυτω υιος αλλ' η οχοζιας ο μικροτατος των υιων αυτου
18 After these events, the LORD afflicted him with an incurable disease of the bowels.	18 και μετα ταυτα παντα επαταξεν αυτον κυριος εις την κοιλιαν μαλακια εν η ουκ εστιν ιατρεια
19 As time went on until a period of two years had elapsed, his bowels issued forth because of the disease and he died in great pain. His people did not made a pyre for him like that of his fathers.	19 και εγενετο εξ ημερων εις ημερας και ως ηλθεν καιρος των ημερων ημερας δυο εξηλθεν η κοιλια αυτου μετα της νοσου και απεθανεν εν μαλακια πονηρα και ουκ εποιησεν ο λαος αυτου εκφοραν καθως εκφοραν πατερων αυτου
20 He was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. He departed unloved and was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.	20 ην τριακοντα και δυο ετων οτε εβασιλευσεν και οκτω ετη εβασιλευσεν εν ιερουσαλημ και επορευθη εν ουκ επαινω και εταφη εν πολει δαυιδ και ουκ εν ταφοις των βασιλεων
