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 |
The inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, Jehoram's youngest son, king in his place, for the band of men that came with the Arabians into the camp had killed all his older sons. So Ahaziah son of Jehoram, king of Judah, became 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 |
Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; he reigned for one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Athaliah; she was the daughter of Omri.
| وَقَدْ سَلَكَ أَيْضاً فِي طَرِيقِ بَيْتِ آخْابَ، لأَنَّ أُمَّهُ كَانَتْ تُشِيرُ عَلَيْهِ بِارْتِكَابِ الشَّرِّ. | ٣ 3 |
He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab for his mother was his advisor in doing wicked things.
| فَاقْتَرَفَ الشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ الرَّبِّ عَلَى غِرَارِ بَيْتِ آخْابَ، إِذْ أَصْبَحُوا لَهُ مُشِيرِينَ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ أَبِيهِ، مِمَّا أَفْضَى إِلَى هَلاكِهِ. | ٤ 4 |
Ahaziah did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as the house of Ahab was doing, for they were his advisors 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 also followed their advice; he went with Joram son of Ahab, king of Israel, to fight against Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth Gilead. The Arameans wounded 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 |
Joram returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds that they had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael, king of Aram. So Ahaziah son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to Jezreel to see Joram son of Ahab, because Joram had been wounded.
| 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 |
Now the destruction of Ahaziah was brought about by God through Ahaziah's visit to Joram. When he had arrived, he went with Jehoram to attack Jehu son of Nimshi, whom Yahweh had chosen to destroy the house of Ahab.
| وَفِيمَا كَانَ يَاهُو يُبِيدُ بَيْتَ آخْابَ، صَادَفَ قَادَةَ يَهُوذَا وَأَبْنَاءَ إِخْوَةِ أَخَزْيَا، الَّذِينَ كَانُوا فِي خِدْمَةِ أَخَزْيَا، فَقَتَلَهُمْ. | ٨ 8 |
It came about, when Jehu was carrying out God's judgment on the house of Ahab, that he found the leaders of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah's brothers serving Ahaziah. Jehu killed 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 |
Jehu looked for Ahaziah; they caught him hiding in Samaria, brought him to Jehu, and killed him. Then they buried him, for they said, “He is a son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Yahweh with all his heart.” So the house of Ahaziah had no more power to rule the kingdom.
| وَلَمَّا رَأَتْ عَثَلْيَا أُمُّ أَخَزْيَا أَنَّ ابْنَهَا قَدْ مَاتَ قَبَضَتْ عَلَى جَمِيعِ النَّسْلِ الْمَلَكِيِّ مِنْ بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا وَأَبَادَتْهُمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she arose and killed all the royal children in 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 Jehosheba, a daughter of the king, secretly took Joash son of Ahaziah away from the king's sons who were about to be killed. She put him and his nurse into a bedroom. So Jehosheba, a daughter of King Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest (for she was the sister of Ahaziah), hid him from Athaliah, so that Athaliah did not kill him.
| وَمَكَثَ مَعَهُمْ مُخْتَبِئاً فِي هَيْكَلِ اللهِ سِتَّ سَنَوَاتٍ، كَانَتْ عَثَلْيَا فِي أَثْنَائِهَا تَمْلِكُ عَلَى عَرْشِ يَهُوذَا. | ١٢ 12 |
He was with them, hidden in the house of God for six years, while Athaliah reigned over the land.
