< 2 Chronicles 22 >
1 And the people of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, his youngest son, king in his place, for the band of men who came with the Arabians to the army had put all the older sons to death. So Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, became king.
Ndị Jerusalem mere Ahazaya, nwa Jehoram nke nta, eze nʼọnọdụ ya, nʼihi na ndị na-apụnara mmadụ ihe nʼike, bụ ndị ha na ndị Arab so bata nʼụlọ ikwu ha, egbuolarị ụmụnne ya ndị okenye. Ya mere Ahazaya, nwa Jehoram bụ eze Juda malitere ịchị.
2 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri.
Ahazaya gbara iri afọ abụọ na abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ chịrị otu afọ na Jerusalem. Aha nne ya bụ Atalaya nwa nwa Omri eze Izrel.
3 He went in the ways of the family of Ahab, for his mother was his teacher in evil-doing.
Ya onwe ya sokwara ụzọ niile nke ndị ezinaụlọ Ehab, nʼihi na nne ya gbara ya ume ime ajọ omume.
4 And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as the family of Ahab did; for after the death of his father they were his guides to his destruction.
O mere ihe dị njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị dịka ezinaụlọ Ehab mere nʼihi na ha ghọrọ ndị ndụmọdụ ya mgbe nna ya nwụsịrị, nke a wetara ọdịda ya.
5 Acting on their suggestion, he went with Jehoram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, to make war on Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead: and Joram was wounded by the bowmen.
O gbasokwara ndụmọdụ ha, mgbe o sooro Joram nwa Ehab, bụ eze Izrel, ịga buso Hazael eze Aram agha na Ramọt Gilead. Ndị Aram merụrụ Joram ahụ,
6 And he went back to Jezreel to get well from the wounds which they had given him at Ramah when he was fighting against Hazael, king of Aram. And Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to Jezreel to see Jehoram, the son of Ahab, because he was ill.
ya mere, ọ lọghachitere na Jezril ka a gwọọ ya mmerụ ahụ ha merụrụ ya na Ramọt, nʼagha nke ya na Hazael eze Aram lụrụ. Mgbe ahụ, Ahazaya nwa Jehoram, eze Juda gara Jezril ileta Joram nwa Ehab, nʼihi na e merụrụ ya ahụ.
7 Now by the purpose of God, Ahaziah's journey to see Jehoram was the cause of his downfall: for when he came there, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu, the son of Nimshi, who had been marked out by the Lord for the destruction of the family of Ahab.
Ọ bụ site na nleta Ahazaya gara leta Joram, ka Chineke si weta ọdịda Ahazaya. Mgbe Ahazaya bịarutere, ya na Joram pụrụ ịga zute Jehu nwa Nimshi, onye ahụ Onyenwe anyị tere mmanụ ka ọ laa ezinaụlọ Ehab nʼiyi.
8 Now when Jehu was effecting the punishment of the family of Ahab, he came to the princes of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah's brothers, the servants of Ahaziah, and put them to death.
Mgbe Jehu nọ na-emezu ihe e kpebiri nʼikpe banyere ezinaụlọ Ehab, o zutere ndị ozi Juda na ụmụ ndị ikom ụmụnne Ahazaya, ndị na-ejere Ahazaya ozi, gbuo ha niile.
9 And he went in search of Ahaziah; and when they came where he was, (for he was in a secret place in Samaria, ) they took him to Jehu and put him to death; then they put his body to rest in the earth, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, whose heart was true to the Lord. So the family of Ahaziah had no power to keep the kingdom.
Ọ pụrụ ịchọ Ahazaya. Ndị ozi ya jidere ya ebe o zoro onwe ya na Sameria. Ha kpụtaara ya Jehu onye gburu ya. Ha liri ya, nʼihi na ha kwuru sị, “Nwa Jehoshafat ka ọ bụ, onye jiri obi ya niile gbasoo Onyenwe anyị.” Ya mere, o nwekwaghị onye dị ike nʼụlọ Ahazaya ijide alaeze ahụ.
10 Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she had all the rest of the seed of the kingdom of Judah put to death.
Mgbe Atalaya, nne Ahazaya hụrụ na nwa ya nwoke anwụọla, ọ gara nʼihu bido igbu ndị niile a mụrụ nʼụlọ eze, bụ ndị ezinaụlọ eze Juda.
11 But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, secretly took Joash, the son of Ahaziah, away from among the king's sons who were put to death, and put him and the woman who took care of him in a bedroom. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of King Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest and sister of Ahaziah, kept him safe from Athaliah, so that she did not put him to death.
Ma Jehosheba, bụ nwa nwanyị eze Jehoram, kuuru Joash nwa Ahazaya zopu ya site nʼetiti ụmụ eze, bụ ndị a chọrọ igbu egbu. O zoro ya na nwanyị na-elekọta ya anya nʼime ụlọ ndina. Nʼihi na Jehosheba, bụ nwa nwanyị eze Jehoram, bụ nwanne Ahazaya, ma bụrụkwa nwunye Jehoiada onye nchụaja, ya mere o jiri zonarị Atalaya nwantakịrị ahụ, ka ọ ghara igbu ya.
12 And she kept him safe with her in the house of God for six years, while Athaliah was ruling the land.
Ya na ha nọgidere na nzuzo nʼime ụlọnsọ Chineke, afọ isii, oge ahụ niile Atalaya na-achị nʼala ahụ.
