2 Chronicles 22
1 And the inhabitants of Ierusalem made Ahaziah his yongest sonne King in his steade: for the armie that came with the Arabians to the campe, had slayne all the eldest: therefore Ahaziah the sonne of Iehoram King of Iudah reigned.
Wakaaji wa Yersusalemu wakamfanya Ahazia, mwana mdodgo wa Yehoramu, mfalme katika nafasi yake, kwa maana kundi la watu ambalo lilikuja na Waarabu katika ngome lilikuwa limewauwa wanaye wakubwa wote. Kwa hiyo Ahazia mwana wa Yehoramu, mfalme wa Yuda, akawa mfalme.
2 Two and fourtie yeere olde was Ahaziah when he began to reigne, and he reigned one yeere in Ierusalem. and his mothers name was Athaliah the daughter of Omri.
Ahazia alikuwa na umri wa mika arobaini na mbili alipoanza kutawala; alitawala kwa mwaka mmoja katika Yerusalemu. Jina la mama yake aliitwa Athalia; alikuwa binti Omri.
3 He walked also in the wayes of the house of Ahab: for his mother counselled him to doe wickedly.
Pia Ahazia alitembea katika njia za nyumba ya Ahabu kwa maana mama yake alikuwa mshauri katika kufanya mamabo maovu.
4 Wherefore he did euill in the sight of the Lord, like the house of Ahab: for they were his counsellers after the death of his father, to his destruction.
Ahazia alifanya yaliyokuwa maovu katika macho ya Yahwe, kama nyumba ya Ahabu walivyokuwa wakifanya, kwa maana walikuwa washauri wake baada ya kifo cha baba yake, hadi kuangamia kwake.
5 And he walked after their counsel, and went with Iehoram the sonne of Ahab King of Israel to fight against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth Gilead: and the Aramites smote Ioram.
Pia aliufuata ushauri wao; akaenda pamoja na Yoramu mwana wa Ahabu, mfalme wa Israeli, kwa ajili ya kupigana dhidi ya Hazaeli, mfalme wa Aramu, huko Ramothi-gileadi. Waaramu wakamjeruhi Yoramu.
6 And he returned to be healed in Izreel, because of the woundes wherewith they had wounded him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael King of Aram. Nowe Azariah the sonne of Iehoram King of Iudah went downe to see Iehoram the sonne of Ahab at Izreel, because hee was diseased.
Yoramu akaraudi Yezreeli kwa ajili ya kuponywa majeraha ambayo walipa huko Rama, alipopigana dhidi ya Hazaeli, mfalme wa Aramu. Kwa hiyo Ahazia mwana wa Yehoramu, mfalme wa Yuda, akaenda chini Yezreeli ili kumuona Yoramu mwana wa Ahabu, kwa sababu Yoramu alikuwa amejeruhiwa.
7 And the destruction of Ahaziah came of God in that he went to Ioram: for when he was come, he went forth with Iehoram against Iehu the sonne of Nimshi, whom the Lord had anointed to destroy the house of Ahab.
Sasa uharibifu wa Ahazia ulikuwa umeletwa na Mungu kupitia kutembelewa na Yoramu. Alipokuwa amewasiri, alienda pamoja na Yeharamu ili kumvamia Yehu mwana wa Nimshi, ambaye Yahwe alikuwa amemchagua kwa ajili ya kuingamiza nyumba ya Ahabu.
8 Therefore when Iehu executed iudgement vpon the house of Ahab, and found the princes of Iudah and the sonnes of the brethren of Ahaziah that waited on Ahaziah, he slew them also.
Ikawa kwamba, Yehu alikuwa akichukua hukumu ya Mungu juu ya nyumba ya Ahabu, kwamba aliwakuta viongozi wa Yuda na wana wa ndugu zake Ahazia wakimtumikia Ahazia. Yehu akawauwa.
9 And he sought Ahaziah, and they caught him where he was hid in Samaria, and brought him to Iehu, and slewe him, and buryed him, because, sayd they, he is the sonne of Iehoshaphat, which sought the Lord with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah was not able to reteine the kingdome.
Yehu akamtafuta Ahazia; Wakamkamata akiwa amejificha katika Samaraia, wakamleta kwa Yehu, na wakamuuwa. Kisha wakamzika, kwa maana walisema, “Ni mwana wa Yehoshafati, ambaye alimtafuta Yahwe kwa moyo wake wote.” Kwa hiyo nyumba ya Ahazia haikuwa na nguvu zaidi kwa ajili ya kuutawala ule ufalme.
10 Therefore when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah sawe that her sonne was dead, shee arose and destroyed all the Kings seede of the house of Iudah.
Sasa Athalia, mama wa Ahazia, akaoana kwamba mwanaye alikuwa amekufa, akaianuka na kuwauwa watoto wote wa kifalme katika nyumba ya Yehu.
11 But Iehoshabeath the daughter of ye King, tooke Ioash the sonne of Ahaziah, and stale him from among the Kings sonnes, that shoulde be slayne, and put him and his nource in the bed chamber: so Iehoshabeath the daughter of King Iehoram the wife of Iehoiada the Priest (for shee was the sister of Ahaziah) hid him from Athaliah: so she slew him not.
Lakini Yehoshaba, binti wa mfalme, akamchukua Yoashi, mwana wa Ahazia, na akamvutia mbali kutoka miongoni mwa wana wa mfalme ambao waliuawa. Akamuweka yeye na mlezi wake katika chumba cha kulala. Kwa hiyo Yehoshaba, binti wa mfalme Yehoramu, mke wa Yehoiada kuhani (kwa maana alikuwa dada yake Ahazia), akamficha asimuone Athalia, kwa hiyo Athalia hakumuuwa.
12 And hee was with them hid in the house of God sixe yeeres, whiles Athaliah reigned ouer the land.
Alikuwa pamoja nao, wakiwa wamejificha katika nyumba ya Mungu kwa miaka sita, Athalia alipotawala juu ya Yuda.
