Liber III Regum

Igitur in octavodecimo anno regni Jeroboam filii Nabat, regnavit Abiam super Judam.

Now in the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam, the son of Nabat, Abiam reigned over Juda.

Ergo in octavodecimo anno de regno Ieroboame de filio Nabate, regna Abia super Iudase.

Tribus annis regnavit in Jerusalem: nomen matris ejus Maacha filia Abessalom.

He reigned three years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Maacha, the daughter of Abessalom.

Tre anno regna in Ierusalem: nomine de matre de illo Maacha filia de Abessalo.

Ambulavitque in omnibus peccatis patris sui, quæ fecerat ante eum: nec erat cor ejus perfectum cum Domino Deo suo, sicut cor David patris ejus.

And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David, his father.

Et ambula in omni peccatos de patre suo, que fac ante illo: nec es corde de illo perfice cum Domino Deo suo, sicut corde Davide de patre de illo.

Sed propter David dedit ei Dominus Deus suus lucernam in Jerusalem, ut suscitaret filium ejus post eum, et statueret Jerusalem:

But for David's sake the Lord his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem:

Sed propter Davide Domino ad illo Deo suo da lucerna in Ierusalem, ut suscita filio de illo post illo, et statue Ierusalem:

eo quod fecisset David rectum in oculis Domini, et non declinasset ab omnibus quæ præceperat ei cunctis diebus vitæ suæ, excepto sermone Uriæ Hethæi.

Because David had done that which was right in the eyes of the Lord, and had not turned aside from any thing that he commanded him, all the days of his life, except the matter of Urias, the Hethite.

Eo quod Davide fac rectus in oculos de Domino, et non declina ab omni que praecipie ad illo cuncta dies de vita suo, excipe sermone de Uriase de Hethaeo.

Attamen bellum fuit inter Roboam et Jeroboam omni tempore vitæ ejus.

But there was war between Roboam and Jeroboam all the time of his life.

Attamen bello es inter Roboame et Ieroboame omni tempore de vita de illo.

Reliqua autem sermonum Abiam, et omnia quæ fecit, nonne hæc scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Juda? Fuitque prælium inter Abiam et inter Jeroboam.

And the rest of the words of Abiam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? And there was war between Abiam and Jeroboam.

Reliqua autem de sermones Abia, et omni que fac, nonne hoc scribe es in libro de verbos de dies de reges Iuda? Et es praelio inter Abia et inter Ieroboame.

Et dormivit Abiam cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in civitate David, regnavitque Asa filius ejus pro eo.

And Abiam slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa, his son, reigned in his stead.

Et Abia dormi cum patres suo, et sepeli illo in civitate Davide, et Asa filio de illo regna pro eo.

In anno ergo vigesimo Jeroboam regis Israël regnavit Asa rex Juda,

So in the twentieth year of Jeroboam, king of Israel, reigned Asa, king of Juda,

In anno ergo vigesimo Ieroboame de rege Israële regna Asa rege Iuda,

et quadraginta et uno anno regnavit in Jerusalem. Nomen matris ejus Maacha filia Abessalom.

And he reigned one and forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maacha, the daughter of Abessalom.

Et quadraginta et uno anno regna in Ierusalem. Nomine de matre de illo Maacha filia de Abessalo.

Et fecit Asa rectum ante conspectum Domini, sicut David pater ejus:

And Asa did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, as did David, his father:

Et Asa fac rectus ante conspectu de Domino, sicut Davide patre de illo:

et abstulit effeminatos de terra, purgavitque universas sordes idolorum quæ fecerant patres ejus.

And he took away the effeminate out of the land, and removed all the filth of the idols, which his fathers had made.

Et aufer effemina de terra, et purga universa sordes de idolos patres de illo fac que.

Insuper et Maacham matrem suam amovit, ne esset princeps in sacris Priapi, et in luco ejus quem consecraverat: subvertitque specum ejus, et confregit simulacrum turpissimum, et combussit in torrente Cedron:

Moreover, he also removed his mother, Maacha, from being the princess in the sacrifices of Priapus, and in the grove which she had consecrated to him: and he destroyed her den, and broke in pieces the filthy idol, and burnt it by the torrent Cedron:

Insuper et Maachame matre suo ama, ne es principe in sacros de Priapo, et in luco de illo quem consecra: et subverte specu de illo, et confrige simulacro turpissima, et combure in torrente Cedrone:

excelsa autem non abstulit. Verumtamen cor Asa perfectum erat cum Domino cunctis diebus suis:

But the high places he did not take away. Nevertheless, the heart of Asa was perfect with the Lord all his days:

Excelso autem non aufer. Verumtamen corde Asa perfice es cum Domino cuncta dies suo:

et intulit ea quæ sanctificaverat pater suus, et voverat, in domum Domini, argentum, et aurum, et vasa.

And he brought in the things which his father had dedicated, and he had vowed, into the house of the Lord, silver and gold, and vessels.

Et infer illa patre suo sanctifica que, et vove, in domo de Domino, argento, et auro, et vases.

Bellum autem erat inter Asa, et Baasa regem Israël cunctis diebus eorum.

And there was war between Asa, and Baasa, king of Israel, all their days.

Bello autem es inter Asa, et Baasa rege Israële cuncta dies de illos.

Ascendit quoque Baasa rex Israël in Judam, et ædificavit Rama, ut non posset quispiam egredi vel ingredi de parte Asa regis Juda.

And Baasa, king of Israel, went up against Juda, and built Rama, that no man might go out or come in of the side of Asa, king of Juda.

Baasa etiam rege Israële ascende in Iudase, et aedifica Rama, ut non ullo pote egredior vel ingredior de parte Asa de rege Iuda.

Tollens itaque Asa omne argentum et aurum quod remanserat in thesauris domus Domini, et in thesauris domus regiæ, et dedit illud in manus servorum suorum: et misit ad Benadad filium Tabremon filii Hezion, regem Syriæ, qui habitabat in Damasco, dicens:

Then Asa took all the silver and gold that remained in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house, and delivered it into the hands of his servants: and sent them to Benadad, son of Tabremon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:

Tolle itaque Asa omni argento et auro quod remane in thesauros de domo de Domino, et in thesauros de domo de regia, et da illo in manus de servos suo: et mitte ad Benadade filio de Tabremone de filio de Hezione, rege de Syria, qui habita in Damasco, dicente:

Fœdus est inter me et te, et inter patrem meum et patrem tuum: ideo misi tibi munera, argentum et aurum: et peto ut venias, et irritum facias fœdus quod habes cum Baasa rege Israël, et recedat a me.

There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: therefore I have sent thee presents of silver and gold: and I desire thee to come, and break thy league with Baasa, king of Israel, that he may depart from me.

Foedere es inter me et te, et inter patre meo et patre tuo: ideo mitte ad te muneres, argento et auro: et pete ut veni, et irrito fac foedere quod habe cum Baasa rege Israële, et recede ab me.

Acquiescens Benadad regi Asa, misit principes exercitus sui in civitates Israël, et percusserunt Ahion, et Dan, et Abeldomum Maacha, et universam Cenneroth, omnem scilicet terram Nephthali.

Benadad, hearkening to king Asa, sent the captains of his army against the cities of Israel, and they smote Ahion, and Dan, and Abeldomum Maacha, and all Cenneroth; that is all the land of Nephthali.

Acquiesce Benadade ad rege Asa, mitte principes de exercitu suo in civitates Israële, et percute Ahione, et Dano, et Abeldomo Maacha, et universa Cenneroth, omni id es terra Nephthali.

Quod cum audisset Baasa, intermisit ædificare Rama, et reversus est in Thersa.

And when Baasa had heard this, he left off building Rama, and returned into Thersa.

Baasa cum audi quod, intermitte aedifica Rama, et reverte es in Thersa.

Rex autem Asa nuntium misit in omnem Judam, dicens: Nemo sit excusatus. Et tulerunt lapides de Rama, et ligna ejus, quibus ædificaverat Baasa, et exstruxit de eis rex Asa Gabaa Benjamin, et Maspha.

But king Asa sent word into all Juda, saying: Let no man be excused: and they took away the stones from Rama, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasa had been building, and with them king Asa built Gabaa of Benjamin, and Maspha.

Rege autem Asa nuntio mitte in omni Iudase, dicente: nemo es excusa. Et fer lapides de Rama, et lignos de illo, ad que aedifica Baasa, et exstrue de illos rege Asa Gabaa Beniamine, et Maspha.

Reliqua autem omnium sermonum Asa, et universæ fortitudines ejus, et cuncta quæ fecit, et civitates quas exstruxit, nonne hæc scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Juda? Verumtamen in tempore senectutis suæ doluit pedes.

But the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his strength, and all that he did, and the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? But in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.

Reliqua autem de omni de sermones Asa, et universa fortitudines de illo, et cuncta que fac, et civitates que exstrue, nonne hoc scribe es in libro de verbos de dies de reges Iuda? Verumtamen in tempore de senectute suo dole pedes.

Et dormivit cum patribus suis, et sepultus est cum eis in civitate David patris sui. Regnavitque Josaphat filius ejus pro eo.

And he slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David, his father. And Josaphat, his son, reigned in his place.

Et dormi cum patres suo, et sepeli es cum illos in civitate Davide de patre suo. Et Iosaphate filio de illo regna pro eo.

Nadab vero filius Jeroboam regnavit super Israël anno secundo Asa regis Juda: regnavitque super Israël duobus annis.

But Nadab, the son of Jeroboam, reigned over Israel the second year of Asa, king of Juda: and he reigned over Israel two years.

Nadabe vero filio Ieroboame regna super Israële anno secundo Asa de rege Iuda: et regna super Israële duo anno.

Et fecit quod malum est in conspectu Domini, et ambulavit in viis patris sui, et in peccatis ejus quibus peccare fecit Israël.

And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the ways of his father, and in his sins, wherewith he made Israel to sin.

Et fac quod malo es in conspectu de Domino, et ambula in vias de patre suo, et in peccatos de illo ad que pecca fac Israële.

Insidiatus est autem ei Baasa filius Ahiæ de domo Issachar, et percussit eum in Gebbethon, quæ est urbs Philisthinorum: siquidem Nadab et omnis Israël obsidebant Gebbethon.

And Baasa, the son of Ahias, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him, and slew him in Gebbethon, which is a city of the Philistines: for Nadab and all Israel besieged Gebbethon.

Insidiato es autem ad illo Baasa filio Ahiase de domo Issachare, et percute illo in Gebbethone, que es urbe de Philisthinos: siquidem Nadabe et omni Israële obside Gebbethone.

Interfecit ergo illum Baasa in anno tertio Asa regis Juda, et regnavit pro eo.

So Baasa slew him in the third year of Asa, king of Juda, and reigned in his place.

Baasa ergo interfice illo in anno tertio Asa de rege Iuda, et regna pro eo.

Cumque regnasset, percussit omnem domum Jeroboam: non dimisit ne unam quidem animam de semine ejus donec deleret eum, juxta verbum Domini quod locutus fuerat in manu servi sui Ahiæ Silonitis,

And when he was king, he cut off all the house of Jeroboam: he left not so much as one soul of his seed, till he had utterly destroyed him, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken in the hand of Ahias, the Silonite:

Cumque regna, percute omni domo Ieroboame: non remitte ne uno quidem anima de semine de illo usque que dele illo, juxta verbo de Domino quod locuto es in manu de servo suo de Ahiase de Silone,

propter peccata Jeroboam, quæ peccaverat, et quibus peccare fecerat Israël: et propter delictum quo irritaverat Dominum Deum Israël.

Because of the sin of Jeroboam, which he had sinned, and wherewith he had made Israel to sin, and for the offence wherewith he provoked the Lord, the God of Israel.

Propter peccatos Ieroboame, que pecca, et ad que pecca fac Israële: et propter delicto quo irrita Domino Deo Israële.

Reliqua autem sermonum Nadab, et omnia quæ operatus est, nonne hæc scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Israël?

But the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

Reliqua autem de sermones Nadabe, et omni que operor es, nonne hoc scribe es in libro de verbos de dies de reges Israële?

Fuitque bellum inter Asa, et Baasa regem Israël, cunctis diebus eorum.

And there was war between Asa and Baasa, the king of Israel, all their days.

Et bello es inter Asa, et Baasa rege Israële, cuncta dies de illos.

Anno tertio Asa regis Juda, regnavit Baasa filius Ahiæ super omnem Israël in Thersa, viginti quatuor annis.

In the third year of Asa, king of Juda, Baasa, the son of Ahias, reigned over all Israel, in Thersa, four and twenty years.

Anno tertio Asa de rege Iuda, regna Baasa filio Ahiase super omni Israële in Thersa, viginti quatuore annos.

Et fecit malum coram Domino, ambulavitque in via Jeroboam, et in peccatis ejus quibus peccare fecit Israël.

And he did evil before the Lord, and walked in the ways of Jeroboam, and in his sins, wherewith he made Israel to sin.

Et fac malo coram Domino, et ambula in via Ieroboame, et in peccatos de illo ad que pecca fac Israële.
