4 Men siden opdagede Assyrerkongen, at Hosea var ved at stifte en Sammensværgelse, idet han sendte Sendebud til Kong So af Ægypten og ikke mere svarede Assyrerkongen den årlige Skat. Så berøvede Assyrerkongen ham Friheden og lod ham kaste i Fængsel.
4 But the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea, who had sent messengers to So king of Egypt and had offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year; so the king of Assyria shut him up and bound him in prison.
6 og i Hoseas niende Regeringsår indtog Assyrerkongen Samaria, bortførte Israel til Assyrien og lod dem bosætte sig i Hala, ved Habor, Gozans Flod, og i Mediens Byer.
6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria and carried Israel away into exile to Assyria, and settled them in Halah and Habor, on the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
7 Således gik det, fordi Israeliterne syndede mod HERREN deres Gud, der havde ført dem op fra Ægypten og udfriet dem af Ægypterkongen Faraos Hånd, og fordi de frygtede andre Guder;
7 Now this came about because the sons of Israel had sinned against the Lord their God, who had brought them up from the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and they had feared other gods
9 og Israeliterne udtænkte utilbørlige Ting mod HERREN deres Gud og byggede sig Offerhøje i alle deres Byer, lige fra Vagttårnene til de befæstede Byer;
9 The sons of Israel did things secretly which were not right against the Lord their God. Moreover, they built for themselves high places in all their towns, from watchtower to fortified city.
11 og tændte Offerild der på alle Høje ligesom de Folkeslag, HERREN havde ført bort foran dem, og øvede onde Ting, så at de krænkede HERREN;
11 and there they burned incense on all the high places as the nations did which the Lord had carried away to exile before them; and they did evil things provoking the Lord.
13 Og HERREN advarede Israel og Juda ved alle sine Profeter, alle Seerne, og sagde: "Vend om fra eders onde Færd og hold mine Bud og Anordninger i nøje Overensstemmelse med den Lov, jeg pålagde eders Fædre og kundgjorde eder ved mine Tjenere Profeterne!"
13 Yet the Lord warned Israel and Judah through all His prophets and every seer, saying, “Turn from your evil ways and keep My commandments, My statutes according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you through My servants the prophets.”
15 de lod hånt om hans Anordninger og den Pagt, han havde sluttet med deres Fædre, og om de Vidnesbyrd, han havde givet dem, og de holdt sig til Tomhed, så de blev til Tomhed, og efterlignede Folkeslagene rundt om dem, skønt HERREN havde pålagt dem ikke at gøre som de;
15 They rejected His statutes and His covenant which He made with their fathers and His warnings with which He warned them. And they followed vanity and became vain, and went after the nations which surrounded them, concerning which the Lord had commanded them not to do like them.
16 de sagde sig løs fra HERREN deres Guds Bud og lavede sig støbte Billeder, to Tyrekalve; de lavede sig også Asjerastøtter, tilbad hele Himmelens Hær og dyrkede Ba'al:
16 They forsook all the commandments of the Lord their God and made for themselves molten images, even two calves, and made an Asherah and worshiped all the host of heaven and served Baal.
17 de lod deres Sønner og Døtre gå igennem Ilden, drev Spådomskunster og Sandsigeri og solgte sig til at gøre, hvad der er ondt i HERRENs Øjne, så de krænkede ham.
17 Then they made their sons and their daughters pass through the fire, and practiced divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the Lord, provoking Him.
21 Thi da Israel havde revet sig løs fra Davids Hus og gjort Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, til Konge, drog denne Israel bort fra HERREN og forledte dem til en stor Synd;
21 When He had torn Israel from the house of David, they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king. Then Jeroboam drove Israel away from following the Lord and made them commit a great sin.
23 så at HERREN til sidst drev Israel bort fra sit Åsyn, som han havde sagt ved alle sine Tjenere Profeterne; og Israel måtte vandre bort fra sit Land til Assyrien, hvor det er den Dag i Dag.
23 until the Lord removed Israel from His sight, as He spoke through all His servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away into exile from their own land to Assyria until this day.
24 Derefter lod Assyrerkongen Folk fra Babel, Kuta, Avva, Hamat og Sefarvajim komme og bosætte sig i Samarias Byer i Stedet for Israeliterne; og de tog Samaria i Besiddelse og bosatte sig i Byerne.
24 The king of Assyria brought men from Babylon and from Cuthah and from Avva and from Hamath and Sepharvaim, and settled them in the cities of Samaria in place of the sons of Israel. So they possessed Samaria and lived in its cities.
26 Da sendte de Assyrerkongen det Bud: "De Folk, du førte bort fra deres Hjem og lod bosætte sig i Samarias Byer, ved ikke, hvorledes Landets Gud skal dyrkes; derfor har han sendt Løver imod dem, og de dræber dem, fordi de ikke ved, hvorledes Landets Gud skal dyrkes!"
26 So they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, “The nations whom you have carried away into exile in the cities of Samaria do not know the custom of the god of the land; so he has sent lions among them, and behold, they kill them because they do not know the custom of the god of the land.”
27 Og Assyrerkongen bød: "Lad en af de Præster, jeg førte bort derfra, drage derhen, lad ham drage hen og bosætte sig der og lære dem, hvorledes Landets Gud skal dyrkes!"
27 Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, “Take there one of the priests whom you carried away into exile and let him go and live there; and let him teach them the custom of the god of the land.”
29 Men hvert Folk gav sig til at lave sig sin egen Gud og stillede ham op i Offerhusene på Højene, som Samaritanerne havde opførf, hvert Folk i sin By, hvor de havde bosat sig;
29 But every nation still made gods of its own and put them in the houses of the high places which the people of Samaria had made, every nation in their cities in which they lived.
34 Endnu den Dag i Dag følger de deres gamle Skikke. De frygtede ikke HERREN og handlede ikke efter de Anordninger og Lovbud, de havde fået, eller efter den Lov og det Bud, HERREN havde givet Jakobs Sønner, han, hvem han gav Navnet Israel.
34 To this day they do according to the earlier customs: they do not fear the Lord, nor do they follow their statutes or their ordinances or the law, or the commandments which the Lord commanded the sons of Jacob, whom He named Israel;
35 Og HERREN havde sluttet en Pagt med dem og givet dem det Bud: "I må ikke frygte andre Guder eller tilbede dem, ikke dyrke dem eller ofre til dem;
35 with whom the Lord made a covenant and commanded them, saying, “You shall not fear other gods, nor bow down yourselves to them nor serve them nor sacrifice to them.
36 men HERREN, som førte eder ud af Ægypten med vældig Kraft og udstrakt Arm, ham skal I frygte, ham skal I tilbede, og til ham skal I ofre!
36 But the Lord, who brought you up from the land of Egypt with great power and with an outstretched arm, Him you shall fear, and to Him you shall bow yourselves down, and to Him you shall sacrifice.
37 De Anordninger og Lovbud, den Lov og det Bud, han har opskrevet for eder, skal I omhyggeligt holde til alle Tider, og I må ikke frygte andre Guder!
37 The statutes and the ordinances and the law and the commandment which He wrote for you, you shall observe to do forever; and you shall not fear other gods.
41 Således frygtede disse Folkeslag HERREN, men dyrkede tillige deres udskårne Billeder; og deres Børn og Børnebørn gør endnu den Dag i Dag som deres Fædre.
41 So while these nations feared the Lord, they also served their idols; their children likewise and their grandchildren, as their fathers did, so they do to this day.
