1Then the word of the LORD came to Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha, saying:
1ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου ἐν χειρὶ Ἰοὺ υἱοῦ Ἀνανὶ πρὸς Βαασά·
2“Even though I lifted you out of the dust and made you ruler over My people Israel, you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have caused My people Israel to sin and to provoke Me to anger by their sins.
2ἀνθ᾿ ὧν ὕψωσά σε ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἔδωκά σε ἡγούμενον ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἐπορεύθης ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ Ἱεροβοὰμ καὶ ἐξήμαρτες τὸν λαόν μου τὸν Ἰσραήλ, τοῦ παροργίσαι με ἐν τοῖς ματαίοις αὐτῶν,
3So now I will consume Baasha and his house, and I will make your house like that of Jeroboam son of Nebat:
3ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐξεγείρω ὀπίσω Βαασὰ καὶ ὄπισθεν τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ καὶ δώσω τὸν οἶκόν σου ὡς τὸν οἶκον Ἱεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβάτ·
4Anyone belonging to Baasha who dies in the city will be eaten by dogs, and anyone who dies in the field will be eaten by the birds of the air.”
4τὸν τεθνηκότα τοῦ Βαασὰ ἐν τῇ πόλει καταφάγονται αὐτὸν οἱ κύνες, καὶ τὸν τεθνηκότα αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ καταφάγονται αὐτὸν τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ.
5As for the rest of the acts of Baasha, along with his accomplishments and might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
5καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Βαασὰ καὶ πάντα ἃ ἐποίησε, καὶ αἱ δυναστεῖαι αὐτοῦ, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων Ἰσραήλ;
6And Baasha rested with his fathers and was buried in Tirzah, and his son Elah reigned in his place.
6καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Βαασὰ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ θάπτεται ἐν Θερσά, καὶ βασιλεύει Ἠλὰ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ εἰκοστῷ ἔτει βασιλέως Ἀσά.
7Moreover, the word of the LORD came through the prophet Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha and his house, because of all the evil he had done in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger with the work of his hands and becoming like the house of Jeroboam, and also because Baasha had struck down the house of Jeroboam.
7καὶ ἐν χειρὶ Ἰοὺ υἱοῦ Ἀνανὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος ἐπὶ Βαασὰ καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ πᾶσαν τὴν κακίαν, ἣν ἐποίησεν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου τοῦ παροργίσαι αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ, τοῦ εἶναι κατὰ τὸν οἶκον Ἱεροβοάμ, καὶ ὑπὲρ τοῦ πατάξαι αὐτόν.
8In the twenty-sixth year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Elah son of Baasha became king of Israel, and he reigned in Tirzah two years.
8Καὶ Ἠλὰ υἱὸς Βαασὰ ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ δύο ἔτη ἐν Θερσά.
9However, while Elah was in Tirzah getting drunk in the house of Arza the steward of his household there, Elah’s servant Zimri, the commander of half his chariots, conspired against him.
9καὶ συνέστρεψεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν Ζαμβρὶ ὁ ἄρχων τῆς ἡμίσους τῆς ἵππου, καὶ αὐτὸς ἦν ἐν Θερσὰ πίνων μεθύων ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Ὡσὰ τοῦ οἰκονόμου ἐν Θερσά.
10So in the twenty-seventh year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Zimri went in, struck Elah down, and killed him. And Zimri reigned in his place.
10καὶ εἰσῆλθε Ζαμβρὶ καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐθανάτωσεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
11As soon as Zimri began to reign and was seated on the throne, he struck down the entire household of Baasha. He did not leave a single male, whether a kinsman or friend.
11καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ βασιλεῦσαι αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ καθίσαι αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπάταξεν ὅλον τὸν οἶκον Βαασὰ
12So Zimri destroyed the entire household of Baasha, according to the word that the LORD had spoken against Baasha through Jehu the prophet.
12κατὰ τὸ ρῆμα, ὃ ἐλάλησε Κύριος ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Βαασά, πρὸς Ἰοὺ τὸν προφήτην
13This happened because of all the sins Baasha and his son Elah had committed and had caused Israel to commit, provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their worthless idols.
13περὶ πασῶν τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν Βαασὰ καὶ Ἠλὰ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ, ὡς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ τοῦ παροργίσαι Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τοῖς ματαίοις αὐτῶν.
14As for the rest of the acts of Elah, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
14καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ἠλά, ἃ ἐποίησεν, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων Ἰσραήλ;
15In the twenty-seventh year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Zimri reigned in Tirzah for seven days. Now the troops were encamped against Gibbethon of the Philistines,
15Καὶ Ζαμβρὶ ἐβασίλευεν ἐν Θερσὰ ἡμέρας ἑπτά. καὶ ἡ παρεμβολὴ Ἰσραὴλ ἐπὶ Γαβαθὼν τὴν τῶν ἀλλοφύλων,
16and the people in the camp heard that Zimri had not only conspired but had also struck down the king. So there in the camp that very day, all Israel proclaimed Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel.
16καὶ ἤκουσεν ὁ λαὸς ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ λεγόντων· συνεστράφη Ζαμβρὶ καὶ ἔπαισε τὸν βασιλέα· καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν ἐν Ἰσραὴλ τὸν Ἀμβρὶ τὸν ἡγούμενον τῆς στρατιᾶς ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ.
17Then Omri and all the Israelites marched up from Gibbethon and besieged Tirzah.
17καὶ ἀνέβη Ἀμβρὶ καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἐκ Γαβαθὼν καὶ περιεκάθισαν ἐπὶ Θερσά.
18When Zimri saw that the city was captured, he entered the citadel of the royal palace and burned it down upon himself. So he died
18καὶ ἐγενήθη ὡς εἶδε Ζαμβρὶ ὅτι προκατείληπται αὐτοῦ ἡ πόλις, καὶ πορεύεται εἰς ἄντρον τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἐνεπύρισεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν τὸν οἶκον τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἀπέθανεν
19because of the sins he had committed, doing evil in the sight of the LORD and following the example of Jeroboam and the sin he had committed and had caused Israel to commit.
19ὑπὲρ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτοῦ ὧν ἐποίησε, τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου πορευθῆναι ἐν ὁδῷ Ἱεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβὰτ καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτοῦ, ὡς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν Ἰσραήλ.
20As for the rest of the acts of Zimri and the treason he committed, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
20καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ζαμβρὶ καὶ τὰς συνάψεις αὐτοῦ, ἃς συνῆψεν, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων Ἰσραήλ;
21At that time the people of Israel were divided: Half of the people supported Tibni son of Ginath as king, and half supported Omri.
21Τότε μερίζεται ὁ λαὸς Ἰσραήλ· ἥμισυ τοῦ λαοῦ γίνεται ὀπίσω Θαμνὶ υἱοῦ Γωνὰθ τοῦ βασιλεῦσαι αὐτόν, καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ τοῦ λαοῦ γίνεται ὀπίσω Ἀμβρί.
22But the followers of Omri proved stronger than those of Tibni son of Ginath. So Tibni died and Omri became king.
22ὁ λαὸς ὁ ὢν ὀπίσω Ἀμβρὶ ὑπερεκράτησε τὸν λαὸν τὸν ὀπίσω Θαμνὶ υἱοῦ Γωνάθ, καὶ ἀπέθανε Θαμνὶ καὶ Ἰωρὰμ ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἀμβρὶ μετὰ Θαμνί.
23In the thirty-first year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Omri became king of Israel, and he reigned twelve years, six of them in Tirzah.
23ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ τριακοστῷ καὶ πρώτῳ τοῦ βασιλέως Ἀσὰ βασιλεύει Ἀμβρὶ ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ δώδεκα ἔτη. ἐν Θερσὰ βασιλεύει ἓξ ἔτη·
24He bought the hill of Samaria from Shemer for two talents of silver and built a city there, calling it Samaria after the name of Shemer, who had owned the hill.
24καὶ ἐκτήσατο Ἀμβρὶ τὸ ὄρος τὸ Σεμερὼν παρὰ Σεμὴρ τοῦ κυρίου τοῦ ὄρους δύο ταλάντων ἀργυρίου καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε τὸ ὄρος καὶ ἐπεκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ ὄρους, οὗ ᾠκοδόμησεν, ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι Σεμὴρ τοῦ κυρίου τοῦ ὄρους Σαεμηρών.
25But Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD and acted more wickedly than all who were before him.
25καὶ ἐποίησεν Ἀμβρὶ τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου καὶ ἐπονηρεύσατο ὑπὲρ πάντας τοὺς γενομένους ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ·
26For he walked in all the ways of Jeroboam son of Nebat and in his sins, which he caused Israel to commit, provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their worthless idols.
26καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν πάσῃ ὁδῷ Ἱεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβὰτ καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτοῦ, αἷς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ τοῦ παροργίσαι τὸν Κύριον Θεὸν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τοῖς ματαίοις αὐτῶν.
27As for the rest of the acts of Omri, along with his accomplishments and the might he exercised, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
27καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ἀμβρὶ καὶ πάντα, ἃ ἐποίησε, καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δυναστεία αὐτοῦ, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων Ἰσραήλ;
28And Omri rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria, and his son Ahab reigned in his place.
28καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἀμβρὶ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ θάπτεται ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ, καὶ βασιλεύει Ἀχαὰβ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ. α Καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ τῷ ἑνδεκάτῳ ἔτει τοῦ Ἀμβρὶ βασιλεύει Ἰωσαφὰτ υἱὸς Ἀσὰ ἐτῶν τριάκοντα καὶ πέντε ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἴκοσι πέντε ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ, καὶ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Γαζουβὰ θυγάτηρ Σελί. β καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ Ἀσὰ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἐξέκλινεν ἀπ᾿ αὐτῆς τοῦ ποιεῖν τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον Κυρίου· πλὴν τῶν ὑψηλῶν οὐκ ἐξῇραν, ἔθυον ἐν τοῖς ὑψηλοῖς, καὶ ἐθυμίων. γ καὶ ἃ συνέθετο Ἰωσαφὰτ μετὰ βασιλέως Ἰσραὴλ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δυναστεία, ἣν ἐποίησε, καὶ οὓς ἐπολέμησεν, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων Ἰούδα; δ καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν συμπλοκῶν, ἃς ἐπέθεντο ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις Ἀσὰ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, ἐξῇρεν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς. ε καὶ βασιλεὺς οὐκ ἦν ἐν Συρίᾳ Νασίβ. ζ καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἰωσαφὰτ ἐποίησε ναῦν εἰς Θαρσὶς πορεύεσθαι εἰς Σωφὶρ ἐπὶ τὸ χρυσίον· καὶ οὐκ ἐπορεύθη, ὅτι συνετρίβη ἡ ναῦς ἐν Γασιὼν Γαβέρ. η τότε εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς Ἰωσαφάτ· ἐξαποστελῶ τοὺς παῖδάς σου καὶ τὰ παιδάριά μου ἐν τῇ νηῖ· καὶ οὐκ ἐβούλετο Ἰωσαφάτ. θ καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἰωσαφὰτ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ θάπτεται μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυίδ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωρὰμ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
29In the thirty-eighth year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Ahab son of Omri became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria twenty-two years.
29Ἐν ἔτει δευτέρῳ τοῦ Ἰωσαφὰτ βασιλέως Ἰούδα βασιλεύει Ἀχαὰβ υἱὸς Ἀμβρί· ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ εἴκοσι καὶ δύο ἔτη.
30However, Ahab son of Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD, more than all who were before him.
30καὶ ἐποίησεν Ἀχαὰβ τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου καὶ ἐπονηρεύσατο ὑπὲρ πάντας τοὺς ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ.
31And as if it were not enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, he even married Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and he then proceeded to serve and worship Baal.
31καὶ οὐκ ἦν αὐτῷ ἱκανὸν τοῦ πορεύεσθαι ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις Ἱεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβάτ, καὶ ἔλαβε γυναῖκα τὴν Ἰεζάβελ θυγατέρα Ἰεθεβαὰλ βασιλέως Σιδωνίων καὶ ἐπορεύθη καὶ ἐδούλευσε τῷ Βάαλ καὶ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ,
32First, Ahab set up an altar for Baal in the temple of Baal that he had built in Samaria.
32καὶ ἔστησε θυσιαστήριον τῷ Βάαλ ἐν οἴκῳ τῶν προσοχθισμάτων αὐτοῦ, ὃν ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ,
33Then he set up an Asherah pole. Thus Ahab did more to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel before him.
33καὶ ἐποίησεν Ἀχαὰβ ἄλσος, καὶ προσέθεκεν Ἀχαὰβ τοῦ ποιῆσαι παροργίσματα τοῦ παροργίσαι τὸν Κύριον Θεὸν τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ καὶ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ τοῦ ἐξολοθρευθῆναι· ἐκακοποίησεν ὑπὲρ πάντας τοὺς βασιλεῖς Ἰσραὴλ τοὺς γενομένους ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ.
34In Ahab’s days, Hiel the Bethelite rebuilt Jericho. At the cost of Abiram his firstborn he laid its foundation, and at the cost of Segub his youngest he set up its gates, according to the word that the LORD had spoken through Joshua son of Nun.
34καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ ᾠκοδόμησεν Ἀχιὴλ ὁ Βαιθηλίτης τὴν Ἱεριχώ· ἐν τῷ Ἀβιρὼν προτοτόκῳ αὐτοῦ ἐθεμελίωσεν αὐτὴν καὶ τῷ Σεγοὺβ τῷ νεωτέρῳ αὐτοῦ ἐπέστησε θύρας αὐτῆς κατὰ τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου, ὃ ἐλάλησεν ἐν χειρὶ Ἰησοῦ υἱοῦ Ναυῆ.
