1 Chronicles 5
1 Reuben was the oldest son of Jacob. Therefore, he should have received the special rights/privileges that belonged to firstborn sons. But he had sex with his father’s slave wife, so [his father] gave the rights if a firstborn son to the sons of Reubers younger brother Joseph. And in the family records, Reuben is not mentioned first, like the firstborn sons always are.
Rubens barn, första Israels sons, ty han var förste sonen; men derföre, att han sins fäders säng besmittade, vardt hans förstfödslorätt gifven Josephs barnom, Israels sons; och han vardt icke räknad till förstfödslona.
2 Although Judah became more influential than his brothers, and a ruler of the tribe descended from him, Joseph’s family received the rights that belonged to firstborn sons.
Ty Juda, som mägtig var ibland sina bröder, honom vardt Förstadömet för honom gifvet, och Joseph förstfödslorätten.
3 But Reuben was Jacob’s oldest son. Reuben’s sons were Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
Så äro nu Rubens, första Israels sons, barn: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron och Charmi.
4 [Another descendant of Reuben was Joel]. Joel’s son was Shemaiah. Shemaiah’s son was Gog. Gog’s son was Shimei.
Joels barn voro: Semaja. Hans son var Gog. Hans son var Simei.
5 Shimei’s son was Micah. Micah’s son was Reaiah. Reaiah’s son was Baal.
Hans son var Micha. Hans son var Reaja. Hans son var Baal.
6 Baal’s son was Beerah. Beerah was a leader of the tribe/descendants of Reuben. But Tiglath-Pileser the king of Assyria captured him and took him to Assyria.
Hans son var Beera, hvilken ThiglathPilneser, Konungen i Assyrien, bortförde fången; han är en Förste ibland de Rubeniter.
7 The names of these clans are listed here according to what is written in their family records. The first [name written was] Jeiel. Then Zechariah,
Men hans bröder i deras ätter, då de i deras börd räknade vordo, hade Jegiel och Zacharia för höfvitsmän.
8 and then Bela. Bela was the son of Azaz, and Azaz was the son of Shema, and Shema was the son of Joel. Reuben’s clan was very large. Some of them lived near Aroer [city] as far [north] as Nebo [town] and Baal-Meon [city].
Och Bela, Asas son, Serna sons, Joels sons, han bodde i Aroer, och intill Nebo och BaalMeon;
9 Some of them lived further east, as far as the edge of the desert [south of] the Euphrates River. [They went there] because they had a huge amount of cattle, [with the result that there was not enough pastureland for them] in [the] Gilead [region].
Och bodde emot öster intill man kommer till öknena vid den älfvena Phrath; förty deras boskap var mycken i Gileads land.
10 When Saul was king [of Israel], Bela’s clan fought against the descendants of Hagar and defeated them. After that, Bela’s clan lived in the tents that the descendants of Hagar had lived in previously, in all the area east of [the] Gilead [region].
Och i Sauls tid förde de örlig emot de Hagariter, så att de föllo genom desses hand, och bodde i deras hyddor, in mot alla den östra ängden Gilead.
11 The tribe of Gad lived near the tribe of Reuben; they lived in [the] Bashan [region], all the way [east] to Salecah [town].
Gads barn bodde tvärtöfver ifrå dem, uti de landena Basan, allt intill Salcha:
12 Joel was their chief; Shapham was his assistant; other leaders were Janai and Shaphat.
Joel den främste, Sapham den andre, Jaenai och Saphat i Basan.
13 Other members of the tribe belonged to seven clans, whose leaders were Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia, and Eber.
Och deras bröder i deras fäders hus voro: Michael, Mesullam, Seba, Jorai, Jaecan, Sia och Eber, de sju.
14 They were descendants of Abihail. Abihail was Huri’s son. Huri was Jaroah’s son. Jaroah was Gilead’s son. Gilead was Michael’s son. Michael was Jeshishai’s son. Jeshishai was Jahdo’s son. Jahdo was the son of Buz.
Desse äro Abihails barn, Huri sons, Jaroahs sons, Gileads sons, Michaels sons, Jesisai sons, Jahdo sons, Bus sons.
15 Ahi was Abdiel’s son. Abdiel was Guni’s son. Ahi was the leader of their clan.
Ahi, Abdiels son, Guni sons, var en öfverste uti deras fäders hus;
16 The descendants of Gad lived in the towns in Gilead and Bashan regions, and on all the pastureland on [the] Sharon [plain].
Och bodde uti Gilead i Basan, och i dess döttrar, och i alla Sarons förstäder, allt intill dess ändar.
17 All of those names were written in the records of the clans of Gad during the time that Jotham was the king of Judah and Jeroboam was the king of Israel.
Desse vordo alle räknade i Jothams, Juda Konungs, och Jerobeams, Israels Konungs tid.
18 There were 44,760 soldiers from the tribes of Reuben and Gad and [the eastern] half of the tribe of Manasseh. They all carried shields and swords and bows [and arrows]. They [were all trained to] fight well in battles.
Rubens barn, de Gaditers, och de halfva slägtenes Manasse, voro stridsamme män, som sköld och svärd föra och båga spänna kunde, och förfarne till att strida; de voro fyra och fyratio tusend, och sjuhundrad och sextio, som i här drogo.
19 They attacked the descendants of Hagar and the people of Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab [cities].
Och då de stridde med de Hagariter, hulpo dem Jetur, Naphis och Nodab;
20 The men from those three tribes prayed to God during the battles, requesting him to help them. So he helped them, because they trusted in him. He enabled them to defeat [IDM] the descendants of Hagar and all those who were helping them.
Och gåfvo de Hagariter i deras händer, och allt det som med dem var; förty de ropade till Gud i stridene, och han bönhörde dem; ty de trodde till honom.
21 They took the animals that belonged to the descendants of Hagar: They took 50,000 camels, 250,000 sheep, and 2,000 donkeys. They also captured 100,000 people.
Och de förde bort deras boskap, femtiotusend camelar, tuhundrad och femtio tusend får, tutusend åsnar, och hundradtusend menniskors själar.
22 But many descendants of Hagar were killed because God helped the people of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh. After that, those three tribes lived in that area until [the army of] Babylonia [captured them and] took them away to Babylon.
Och der föllo månge såre; ty striden var af Gudi. Och de bodde i deras stad allt intill den tiden de fångne vordo.
23 There were many people who belonged to the eastern half of the tribe of Manasseh. They lived in [the] Bashan [region east of the Jordan River], as far [north] as Baal-Hermon, Senir, and Hermon Mountain.
De halfva slägtenes Manasse barn bodde i de landena, ifrå Basan allt intill BaalHermon och Senir, och det berget Hermon, och de voro månge.
24 Their clan leaders were Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel. They were all strong, brave, and famous soldiers, and leaders of their clans.
Och desse voro höfvitsmän till deras fäders hus: Epher, Jisei, Eliel, Asriel, Jeremia, Hodavia, Jahdiel; väldige, mägtige män, och namnkunnige höfvitsmän uti deras fäders husom.
25 But they sinned against God, the one whom their ancestors had worshiped. They began to worship the gods/idols that the people of that region had worshiped, the people whom God had enabled them to destroy!
Och då de förtogo sig emot deras fäders Gud, och i horeri gingo efter de folks gudar der i landena, som Gud för dem förgjort hade,
26 So the God whom the Israelis [worshiped] caused Pul, the king of Assyria, to conquer those tribes. Pul’s other name was Tiglath-Pileser. His [army] captured the people of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the eastern half of the tribe of Manasseh, and took them to [various places in Assyria]: Halah, Habor, Hara and near the Gozan River. [They have lived in those places from that time] to the present time.
Uppväckte Israels Gud Phuls anda, Konungens i Assyrien, och ThiglathPilnesers anda, Konungens i Assyrien, och förde bort de Rubeniter, Gaditer och den halfva slägtena Manasse, och lät komma dem till Halah och Hober och Hara, och till den älfvena Gosan, allt intill denna dag.
