ὧν ὕψωσά σε ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἔδωκά σε ἡγούμενον ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου Ισραηλ καὶ ἐπορεύθης ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ Ιεροβοαμ καὶ ἐξήμαρτες τὸν λαόν μου τὸν Ισραηλ τοῦ παροργίσαι με ἐν τοῖς ματαίοις αὐτῶν
Because I exalted you from the earth and gave you to be ruler over my people Israel, and you walked in the way of Jeroboam and caused my people Israel to sin, to provoke me with their vain things
ἐγὼ ἐξεγείρω ὀπίσω Βαασα καὶ ὄπισθεν τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ καὶ δώσω τὸν οἶκόν σου ὡς τὸν οἶκον Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ
Behold, I am raising up after Baasa and behind his house, and I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat.
τεθνηκότα τοῦ Βαασα ἐν τῇ πόλει καταφάγονται αὐτὸν οἱ κύνες καὶ τὸν τεθνηκότα αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ καταφάγονται αὐτὸν τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ
The one of Baasa who has died in the city the dogs shall devour, and the one of his who has died in the field the birds of the sky shall devour.
τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Βαασα καὶ πάντα ἃ ἐποίησεν καὶ αἱ δυναστεῖαι αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων Ισραηλ
And the rest of the words of Baasa and all that he did and his acts of power, are they not behold, these things written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
ἐκοιμήθη Βαασα μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ θάπτεται ἐν Θερσα καὶ βασιλεύει Ηλα υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ εἰκοστῷ ἔτει βασιλέως Ασα
And Baasa slept with his fathers and was buried in Thersa, and Ela his son reigned in his place in the twentieth year of king Asa.
ἐν χειρὶ Ιου υἱοῦ Ανανι ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐπὶ Βαασα 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 Ιεροβοαμ καὶ ὑπὲρ τοῦ πατάξαι αὐτόν
And by the hand of Jehu son of Hanani the Lord spoke against Baasha and against his house all the evil that he did before the Lord, to provoke him by the works of his hands, to be like the house of Jeroboam, and because of striking him down.
And Elah son of Baasha reigned over Israel two years in Tirzah
συνέστρεψεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν Ζαμβρι ὁ ἄρχων τῆς ἡμίσους τῆς ἵππου καὶ αὐτὸς ἦν ἐν Θερσα πίνων μεθύων ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Ωσα τοῦ οἰκονόμου ἐν Θερσα
And Zambri the commander of half the horse conspired against him, and he himself was in Thersa drinking and becoming drunk in the house of Osa the steward in Thersa.
And Zambri entered and struck him and put him to death and reigned in his place
ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ βασιλεῦσαι αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ καθίσαι αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπάταξεν ὅλον τὸν οἶκον Βαασα
And it happened, when he became king, when he sat on his throne, that he struck all the house of Baasa.
according to the word that the Lord spoke against the house of Baasha through Jehu the prophet
πασῶν τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν Βαασα καὶ Ηλα τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ ὡς ἐξήμαρτεν τὸν Ισραηλ τοῦ παροργίσαι κύριον τὸν θεὸν Ισραηλ ἐν τοῖς ματαίοις αὐτῶν
because of all the sins of Baasha and Elah his son, as he sinned Israel to provoke the Lord, the God of Israel, by their vain things
τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ηλα καὶ πάντα ἃ ἐποίησεν οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων Ισραηλ
And the rest of the words of Ela and all that he did, are they not behold, written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
And Zambri reigned seven days in Thersa, and the camp of Israel was against Gabathon, which belongs to the Philistines.
ἤκουσεν ὁ λαὸς ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ λεγόντων συνεστράφη Ζαμβρι καὶ ἔπαισεν τὸν βασιλέα καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν ἐν Ισραηλ τὸν Αμβρι τὸν ἡγούμενον τῆς στρατιᾶς ἐπὶ Ισραηλ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ
And the people in the camp heard, saying, Zimri has conspired and has struck the king, and they made Omri king, the commander of the army, over Israel in that day in the camp.
And Omri and all Israel with him went up from Gibbethon and they besieged Tirzah
ἐγενήθη ὡς εἶδεν Ζαμβρι ὅτι προκατείλημπται αὐτοῦ ἡ πόλις καὶ εἰσπορεύεται εἰς ἄντρον τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἐνεπύρισεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν τὸν οἶκον τοῦ βασιλέως ἐν πυρὶ καὶ ἀπέθανεν
And it came to pass, when Zambri saw that the city had been taken before him, that he entered into the inner room of the house of the king and burned the house of the king over himself with fire, and he died.
τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτοῦ ὧν ἐποίησεν τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον κυρίου πορευθῆναι ἐν ὁδῷ Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτοῦ ὡς ἐξήμαρτεν τὸν Ισραηλ
for his sins which he committed, to do evil before the Lord, to walk in the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and in his sins by which he caused Israel to sin
τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ζαμβρι καὶ τὰς συνάψεις αὐτοῦ ἃς συνῆψεν οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων Ισραηλ
And the rest of the words of Zambri and his conspiracies which he conspired, behold, are not these written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
μερίζεται ὁ λαὸς Ισραηλ ἥμισυ τοῦ λαοῦ γίνεται ὀπίσω Θαμνι υἱοῦ Γωναθ τοῦ βασιλεῦσαι αὐτόν καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ τοῦ λαοῦ γίνεται ὀπίσω Αμβρι
Then the people of Israel were divided; half the people followed Thamni son of Gonaath to make him king, and half the people followed Ambri.
λαὸς ὁ ὢν ὀπίσω Αμβρι ὑπερεκράτησεν τὸν λαὸν τὸν ὀπίσω Θαμνι υἱοῦ Γωναθ καὶ ἀπέθανεν Θαμνι καὶ Ιωραμ ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Αμβρι μετὰ Θαμνι
And the people who were behind Amri prevailed over the people who were behind Thamni son of Gonaath, and Thamni died, and Ioram his brother, in that time, and Amri reigned after Thamni.
τῷ ἔτει τῷ τριακοστῷ καὶ πρώτῳ τοῦ βασιλέως Ασα βασιλεύει Αμβρι ἐπὶ Ισραηλ δώδεκα ἔτη ἐν Θερσα βασιλεύει ἓξ ἔτη
In the thirty-first year of King Asa, Amri reigned over Israel twelve years; in Thersa he reigned six years.
ἐκτήσατο Αμβρι τὸ ὄρος τὸ Σεμερων παρὰ Σεμηρ τοῦ κυρίου τοῦ ὄρους δύο ταλάντων ἀργυρίου καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν τὸ ὄρος καὶ ἐπεκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ ὄρους οὗ ᾠκοδόμεσεν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι Σεμηρ τοῦ κυρίου τοῦ ὄρους Σαεμηρων
And Ambri acquired the mountain of Semeron from Semer, the lord of the mountain, for two talents of silver, and he built the mountain, and he called the name of the mountain which he built after the name of Semer, the lord of the mountain, Saemeron.
ἐποίησεν Αμβρι τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ ἐπονηρεύσατο ὑπὲρ πάντας τοὺς γενομένους ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ
And Ambri did the evil in the sight of the Lord, and he acted more wickedly than all who had been before him.
ἐπορεύθη ἐν πάσῃ ὁδῷ Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτοῦ αἷς ἐξήμαρτεν τὸν Ισραηλ τοῦ παροργίσαι τὸν κύριον θεὸν Ισραηλ ἐν τοῖς ματαίοις αὐτῶν
And he walked in all the way of Jeroboam son of Nabat and in his sins which he caused Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord God of Israel with their vanities.
τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Αμβρι καὶ πάντα ἃ ἐποίησεν καὶ ἡ δυναστεία αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων Ισραηλ
And the rest of the words of Omri and all that he did, and his might, behold, are not these written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
ἐκοιμήθη Αμβρι μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ θάπτεται ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ καὶ βασιλεύει Αχααβ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ τῷ ἑνδεκάτῳ τοῦ Αμβρι βασιλεύει Ιωσαφατ υἱὸς Ασα ἐτῶν τριάκοντα καὶ πέντε ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ καὶ εἴκοσι πέντε ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Γαζουβα θυγάτηρ Σελεϊ ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ Ασα τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἐξέκλινεν ἀπ᾿ αὐτῆς τοῦ ποιεῖν τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον κυρίου πλὴν τῶν ὑψηλῶν οὐκ ἐξῆραν ἔθυον ἐν τοῖς ὑψηλοῖς καὶ ἐθυμίων ἃ συνέθετο Ιωσαφατ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δυναστεία ἣν ἐποίησεν καὶ οὓς ἐπολέμησεν οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων Ιουδα τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν συμπλοκῶν ἃς ἐπέθεντο ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις Ασα τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ ἐξῆρεν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς βασιλεὺς οὐκ ἦν ἐν Συρίᾳ νασιβ ὁ βασιλεὺς Ιωσαφατ ἐποίησεν ναῦν εἰς Θαρσις πορεύεσθαι εἰς Σωφιρ ἐπὶ τὸ χρυσίον καὶ οὐκ ἐπορεύθη ὅτι συνετρίβη ἡ ναῦς ἐν Γασιωνγαβερ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ πρὸς Ιωσαφατ ἐξαποστελῶ τοὺς παῖδάς σου καὶ τὰ παιδάριά μου ἐν τῇ νηί καὶ οὐκ ἐβούλετο Ιωσαφατ ἐκοιμήθη Ιωσαφατ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ θάπτεται μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυιδ καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ιωραμ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ
And Omri slept with his fathers, and he is buried in Samaria, and Ahab his son reigns in his place.
ἔτει δευτέρῳ τῷ Ιωσαφατ βασιλεύει Αχααβ υἱὸς Αμβρι ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ Ισραηλ ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ εἴκοσι καὶ δύο ἔτη
In the second year of Jehoshaphat, Ahab son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years.
And Ahab did the evil in the sight of the Lord; he acted wickedly beyond all who were before him.
οὐκ ἦν αὐτῷ ἱκανὸν τοῦ πορεύεσθαι ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ καὶ ἔλαβεν γυναῖκα τὴν Ιεζαβελ θυγατέρα Ιεθεβααλ βασιλέως Σιδωνίων καὶ ἐπορεύθη καὶ ἐδούλευσεν τῷ Βααλ καὶ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ
And it was not enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and he took as wife Jezebel daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and he went and served Baal and bowed down to him
And he set up an altar for Baal in the house of his abominations, which he built in Samaria.
ἐποίησεν Αχααβ ἄλσος καὶ προσέθηκεν Αχααβ τοῦ ποιῆσαι παροργίσματα τοῦ παροργίσαι τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ τοῦ ἐξολεθρευθῆναι ἐκακοποίησεν ὑπὲρ πάντας τοὺς βασιλεῖς Ισραηλ τοὺς γενομένους ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ
And Ahab made a grove, and Ahab added to do provocations, to provoke his soul, so as to be destroyed; he did evil above all the kings of Israel who had been before him.
ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ ᾠκοδόμησεν Αχιηλ ὁ Βαιθηλίτης τὴν Ιεριχω ἐν τῷ Αβιρων τῷ πρωτοτόκῳ αὐτοῦ ἐθεμελίωσεν αὐτὴν καὶ τῷ Σεγουβ τῷ νεωτέρῳ αὐτοῦ ἐπέστησεν θύρας αὐτῆς κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα κυρίου ὃ ἐλάλησεν ἐν χειρὶ Ιησου υἱοῦ Ναυη
In his days Hiel the Bethelite built Jericho; with Abiram his firstborn he laid its foundation, and with Segub his younger he set up its gates, according to the word of the Lord which he spoke by the hand of Joshua son of Nun.
