2 أخبار 22
| وَنَصَّبَ سُكَّانُ أُورُشَلِيمَ أَخَزْيَا أَصْغَرَ أَبْنَائِهِ مَلِكاً عَلَيْهِمْ خَلَفاً لَهُ، لأَنَّ الْغُزَاةَ الَّذِينَ انْضَمُّوا إِلَى الْعَرَبِ وَأَغَارُوا عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ قَتَلُوا سَائِرَ إِخْوَتِهِ، فَمَلَكَ أَخَزْيَا بْنُ يَهُورَامَ عَلَى يَهُوذَا. | ١ 1 |
And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Achazyahu his youngest son king in his stead; for the predatory band that was come with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So became Achazyahu, the son of Jehoram the king of Judah, king.
| وَكَانَ أَخَزْيَا فِي الثَّانِيَةِ وَالْعِشْرِينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ حِينَ تَوَلَّى الْمُلْكَ، وَدَامَ حُكْمُهُ سَنَةً وَاحِدَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَاسْمُ أُمِّهِ عَثَلْيَا، وَهِيَ حَفِيدَةُ عُمْرِي. | ٢ 2 |
Forty and two years old was Achazyahu when he became king, and one year did he reign in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Athalyahu the [grand-]daughter of 'Omri.
| وَقَدْ سَلَكَ أَيْضاً فِي طَرِيقِ بَيْتِ آخْابَ، لأَنَّ أُمَّهُ كَانَتْ تُشِيرُ عَلَيْهِ بِارْتِكَابِ الشَّرِّ. | ٣ 3 |
Also he walked in the ways of the house of Achab; for his mother was his counsellor to act wickedly.
| فَاقْتَرَفَ الشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ الرَّبِّ عَلَى غِرَارِ بَيْتِ آخْابَ، إِذْ أَصْبَحُوا لَهُ مُشِيرِينَ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ أَبِيهِ، مِمَّا أَفْضَى إِلَى هَلاكِهِ. | ٤ 4 |
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord like the house of Achab; for these were his counsellors after the death of his father to his destruction.
| وَبِمُقْتَضَى مَشُورَتِهِمِ انْضَمَّ إِلَى يَهُورَامَ بْنِ آخْابَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، لِمُحَارَبَةِ حَزَائِيلَ مَلِكِ أَرَامَ فِي رَامُوتِ جِلْعَادَ، فَهَزَمَ الأَرَامِيُّونَ يُورَامَ. | ٥ 5 |
He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Achab the king of Israel to war against Chazael the king of Syria at Ramoth-gil'ad: and the Syrians smote Joram.
| فَرَجَعَ يُورَامُ إِلَى يَزْرَعِيلَ حَتَّى يَبْرَأَ مِنْ جِرَاحِهِ الَّتِي أَصَابَهُ بِها الأَرَامِيُّونَ فِي الرَّامَةِ فِي أَثْنَاءِ مَعْرَكَتِهِ مَعَ حَزَائِيلَ مَلِكِ أَرَامَ، فَجَاءَ أَخَزْيَا بْنُ يَهُورَامَ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا لِيَزُورَ يَهُورَامَ بْنَ آخْابَ الَّذِي كَانَ مَرِيضاً فِي يَزْرَعِيلَ. | ٦ 6 |
And he returned to be healed in Yizre'el because of the wounds which had been given him at Ramah, when he fought with Chazael the king of Syria. And 'Azaryahu the son of Jehoram the king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Achab at Yizre'el, because he was sick.
| وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ شَاءَ أَنْ تَكُونَ زِيَارَةُ أَخَزْيَا لِيُورَامَ سَبَباً فِي هَلاكِهِ، حِينَ خَرَجَ مَعَ يَهُورَامَ لِلِقَاءِ يَاهُو بْنِ نِمْشِي، الَّذِي اخْتَارَهُ الرَّبُّ لِلْقَضَاءِ الْمُبْرَمِ عَلَى بَيْتِ أَخَآبَ. | ٧ 7 |
But from God was the confusion of Achazyahu that he should come to Joram: and when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the Lord had anointed to cut off the house of Achab.
| وَفِيمَا كَانَ يَاهُو يُبِيدُ بَيْتَ آخْابَ، صَادَفَ قَادَةَ يَهُوذَا وَأَبْنَاءَ إِخْوَةِ أَخَزْيَا، الَّذِينَ كَانُوا فِي خِدْمَةِ أَخَزْيَا، فَقَتَلَهُمْ. | ٨ 8 |
And it came to pass, when Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Achab, that he found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brothers of Achazyahu, that ministered to Achazyahu, and he slew them.
| وَسَعَى وَرَاءَ أَخَزْيَا، فَقَبَضَ عَلَيْهِ رِجَالُ يَاهُو وَهُوَ مُخْتَبِئٌ فِي السَّامِرَةِ، فَأَتَوْا بِهِ إِلَى يَاهُو، وَقَتَلُوهُ وَدَفَنُوهُ قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّهُ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّةِ يَهُوشَافَاطَ الَّذِي طَلَبَ الرَّبَّ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِهِ». فَلَمْ يَبْقَ مَنْ يَتَوَلَّى الْعَرْشَ فِي بَيْتِ أَخَزْيَا. | ٩ 9 |
And he sought Achazyahu, and they caught him while he was hiding himself in Samaria, and they brought him to Jehu, and they slew him, and buried him; because they said, He is son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the Lord with all his heart. And there was none of the house of Achazyahu who had sufficient power [to obtain] the kingdom.
| وَلَمَّا رَأَتْ عَثَلْيَا أُمُّ أَخَزْيَا أَنَّ ابْنَهَا قَدْ مَاتَ قَبَضَتْ عَلَى جَمِيعِ النَّسْلِ الْمَلَكِيِّ مِنْ بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا وَأَبَادَتْهُمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
And when 'Athalyahu the mother of Achazyahu saw that her son was dead, she arose and exterminated all the royal seed of the house of Judah.
| غَيْرَ أَنَّ يَهُوشَبْعَةَ ابْنَةَ الْمَلِكِ يَهُورَامَ اخْتَطَفَتْ يُوآشَ بْنَ أَخَزْيَا مِنْ بَيْنِ أَبْنَاءِ الْمَلِكِ الَّذِينَ شَرَعَتْ عَثَلْيَا فِي قَتْلِهِمْ، وَأَخْفَتْهُ هُوَ وَمُرْضِعَتَهُ فِي مُخْدَعِ النَّوْمِ، لأَنَّ يَهُوشَبْعَةَ كَانَتْ أُخْتَ أَخَزْيَا، وَابْنَةَ الْمَلِكِ يَهُورَامَ، وَزَوْجَةَ يَهُويَادَاعَ الْكَاهِنِ. وَهَكَذَا خَبَّأَتْ يَهُوشَبْعَةُ يُوآشَ مِنْ عَثَلْيَا، فَلَمْ تَقْتُلْهُ. | ١١ 11 |
But Yehoshab'ath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Achazyahu, and stole him away from the midst of the king's sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse into the bed-chamber. So did Yehoshab'ath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Yehoyada' the priest, —for she was the sister of Achazyahu, —hide him from 'Athalyahu, so that she slew him not.
| وَمَكَثَ مَعَهُمْ مُخْتَبِئاً فِي هَيْكَلِ اللهِ سِتَّ سَنَوَاتٍ، كَانَتْ عَثَلْيَا فِي أَثْنَائِهَا تَمْلِكُ عَلَى عَرْشِ يَهُوذَا. | ١٢ 12 |
And he was with them in the house of God hidden six years, while 'Athalyah was reigning over the land.
