< 2 Chronicles 22 >
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.
Jeruzalemci zakraljiše na njegovo mjesto najmlađeg mu sina, Ahazju, jer sve starije bijaše poubijala četa koja je s Arapima navalila na tabor; tako se zakraljio Ahazja, sin judejskoga kralja Jorama.
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.
Bile su mu četrdeset i dvije godine kad se zakraljio. Kraljevao je jednu godinu u Jeruzalemu. Materi mu je bilo ime Atalija, Omrijeva kći.
3 Also he walked in the ways of the house of Achab; for his mother was his counsellor to act wickedly.
I on je išao putovima doma Ahabova, jer ga mati zlo svjetovaše.
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.
Činio je što je zlo u Jahvinim očima, kao dom Ahabov, jer mu baš oni bijahu savjetnici poslije očeve smrti, na njegovu propast.
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.
Po njihovu je savjetu pošao s Joramom, sinom izraelskoga kralja Ahaba, u boj na aramejskoga kralja Hazaela u Ramot Gilead. Ali su Aramejci porazili Jorama.
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.
On se vratio da se liječi u Jizreelu od rana što mu ih zadadoše u Rami kad se borio s aramejskim kraljem Hazaelom. Joramov sin Ahazja, judejski kralj, sišao je u Jizreel da posjeti Ahabova sina Jorama jer se Joram razbolio.
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.
Ali Bog učini da taj posjet Joramu bude na propast Ahazji. Došavši, izišao je s Joramom na Nimšijeva sina Jehua, koga je Jahve pomazao da iskorijeni Ahabovu kuću.
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.
Dok je izvršavao osvetu nad Ahabovom kućom, Jehu zateče judejske knezove i sinove Ahazjine braće koji su posluživali Ahazju i pobi ih,
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.
a onda krenu u potragu za Ahazjom. Uhvatili su ga dok se krio u Samariji, doveli ga k Jehuu, koji ga smaknu. Ukopali su ga, jer su rekli: “Sin je onoga Jošafata koji je tražio Jahvu svim srcem.” Tako ne ostade nitko od Ahazjine kuće koji bi imao snage da bude kralj.
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.
Zato Ahazjina mati Atalija, vidjevši gdje joj sin poginu, ustade i posmica sav kraljevski rod Judina plemena.
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.
Ali kraljeva kći Jošeba uze Ahazjina sina Joaša; ukravši ga između kraljevih sinova koje su ubijali, metnu ga s dojiljom u ložnicu. Tako ga je Jošeba, kći kralja Jorama, žena svećenika Jojade, sakrila od Atalije, jer je bila Ahazjina sestra, te nije bio pogubljen.
12 And he was with them in the house of God hidden six years, while 'Athalyah was reigning over the land.
Bio je sakriven s njima u Domu Božjem šest godina, sve dok je zemljom vladala Atalija.
