2 Chronicles 22
1 Then the people of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, the youngest son of Jehoram, king in his place, since the raiders who had come into the camp with the Arabs had killed all the older sons. So Ahaziah son of Jehoram became king of Judah.
[阿哈齊雅即位行惡]耶路撒冷居民立了約蘭的小兒阿哈齊雅繼位為王，因為與阿剌伯人同來攻營的匪徒，將他的哥哥全都殺了，因此猶大王約蘭的兒子阿哈齊雅即位為王。
2 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem one year. His mother’s name was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri.
阿哈齊雅即位年二十二歲，在耶路撒冷作王一年；他的母親名叫阿塔里雅，是敖默黎的孫女。
3 Ahaziah also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother was his counselor in wickedness.
阿哈齊雅也走了阿哈布家的道路，因為他母親主使他作惡。
4 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as the house of Ahab had done, for to his destruction they were his counselors after the death of his father.
他行了上主視為惡的事，同阿哈布家一樣，因為自他父親死後，阿哈布家人給他出主意，使他趨於滅亡。
5 Ahaziah also followed their counsel and went with Joram son of Ahab king of Israel to fight against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth-gilead. But the Arameans wounded Joram;
他隨從了他們的計謀，同以色列王阿哈布的兒子耶曷蘭，往辣摩特基肋阿得與阿蘭王哈匝耳交戰；阿蘭人擊傷了耶曷蘭，
6 so he returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds they had inflicted on him at Ramah when he fought against Hazael king of Aram. Then Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to Jezreel to visit Joram son of Ahab, because Joram had been wounded.
耶曷蘭遂回依次勒耳，治療他在辣摩特與阿蘭在哈匝耳交戰時所受的傷。猶大王約蘭的兒子阿哈齊雅因阿哈布的兒子耶曷蘭患病，就下到依次勒耳去探望他。[阿哈齊雅被殺]
7 Ahaziah’s downfall came from God when he went to visit Joram. When Ahaziah arrived, he went out with Joram to meet Jehu son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to destroy the house of Ahab.
阿哈齊雅去看望耶曷蘭反而遇害，這原是出於天主；因為他到了以後，便與耶曷蘭出擊尼默史的孫子耶胡，而耶胡即是上主用油所傅，為消滅阿哈布家的。
8 So while Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Ahab, he found the rulers of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah’s brothers who were serving Ahaziah, and he killed them.
耶胡討伐阿哈布家時，遇到了猶大的一些首領和事奉阿哈齊砑的姪子們，便將他們殺了；
9 Then Jehu looked for Ahaziah, and Jehu’s soldiers captured him while he was hiding in Samaria. So Ahaziah was brought to Jehu and put to death. They buried him, for they said, “He is the grandson of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart.” So no one was left from the house of Ahaziah with the strength to rule the kingdom.
然後去尋找阿哈齊雅；阿哈齊雅當時藏在撒瑪黎雅，人將他拿住，解到耶胡那裏，耶胡也將他殺了，以後人也埋葬了他，因為人說：「他究竟是那一心尋求上主的約沙法特的孫子。」這樣，阿哈齊雅家中沒有一個人能即位為王。[母后篡位]
10 When Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she proceeded to annihilate all the royal heirs of the house of Judah.
阿哈齊雅的母親阿塔里雅見自己的兒子死了，便起來殲滅了猶大家中所有的王族後裔。
11 But Jehoshabeath daughter of King Jehoram took Joash son of Ahaziah and stole him away from among the sons of the king who were being murdered, and she put him and his nurse in a bedroom. Because Jehoshabeath, the daughter of King Jehoram and the wife of Jehoiada the priest, was Ahaziah’s sister, she hid Joash from Athaliah so that she could not kill him.
約蘭王的女兒約舍巴，將阿哈齊雅的兒子約阿士由被殺的太子中偷了出來，將他和他的乳母藏在聖殿的寢室裏。約舍巴─約蘭王的女兒，約雅達大司祭的妻子，阿哈齊雅的姐妹─就這樣藏匿了約阿士，沒有被阿塔里雅殺害。
12 And Joash remained hidden with them in the house of God for six years while Athaliah ruled the land.
約阿士與她們在天主殿內隱藏了六年，當時由阿塔里雅主持國政。
