< 2 Chronicles 22 >
1 And the inhabitants of Jerusalem cause his youngest son Ahaziah to reign in his stead (for the troop had slain all the chiefly that came in with the Arabians to the camp), and Ahaziah son of Jehoram, king of Judah, reigns.
Og Indbyggerne i Jerusalem gjorde Ahasia, hans yngste Søn, til Konge i hans Sted; thi den Trop, som kom med Araberne til Lejren, havde ihjelslaaet alle de første; og Ahasia, Jorams Søn, regerede søm Konge i Juda.
2 Ahaziah [is] a son of twenty-two years in his reigning, and he has reigned one year in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Athaliah daughter of Omri;
Ahasia var to og fyrretyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede et Aar i Jerusalem, og hans Moders Navn var Athalia, Omris (Søns) Datter.
3 he has also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother has been his counselor to do wickedly.
Og han vandrede i Akabs Hus's Veje; thi hans Moder var hans Raadgiver til at handle ugudeligt.
4 And he does evil in the eyes of YHWH, like the house of Ahab, for they have been his counselors, after the death of his father, for destruction to him.
Og han gjorde det, som var ondt for Herrens Øjne ligesom Akabs Hus; thi de vare hans Raadgivere efter hans Faders Død til Fordærvelse for ham.
5 Also, he has walked in their counsel, and goes with Jehoram son of Ahab, king of Israel, to battle against Hazael king of Aram in Ramoth-Gilead, and they of Ramah strike Joram;
Han vandrede ogsaa efter deres Raad og drog med Joram, Israels Konge, Akabs Søn, i Krig imod Hasael, Kongen af Syrien, imod Ramoth i Gilead; men Syrerne sloge Joram.
6 and he turns back to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds with which they had struck him in Ramah, in his fighting with Hazael king of Aram. And Azariah son of Jehoram, king of Judah, has gone down to see Jehoram son of Ahab in Jezreel, for he [is] sick;
Og han vendte tilbage for at lade sig læge i Jisreel af de Saar, som de havde slaget ham ved Rama, der han stred med Hasael, Kongen af Syrien; og Asaria, Jorams Søn, Judas Konge, drog ned at besøge Joram, Akabs Søn, i Jisreel, thi han laa syg.
7 and to come to Joram has been from God [for] the destruction of Ahaziah; and in his coming he has gone out with Jehoram to Jehu son of Nimshi, whom YHWH anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.
Og af Gud var Ahasias Undergang, saa at han kom til Joram; thi der han kom, da drog han ud med Joram imod Jehu, Nimsis Søn, som Herren havde salvet til at udrydde Akabs Hus.
8 And it comes to pass, in Jehu’s executing judgment with the house of Ahab, that he finds the heads of Judah and sons of the brothers of Ahaziah, ministers of Ahaziah, and slays them.
Og det skete, da Dommen udførtes af Jehu imod Akabs Hus, da traf han de Øverste af Juda og Ahasias Brodersønner, som tjente Ahasia, og slog dem ihjel.
9 And he seeks Ahaziah, and they capture him (and he is hiding himself in Samaria), and bring him to Jehu, and put him to death, and bury him, for they said, “He [is] son of Jehoshaphat, who sought YHWH with all his heart”; and there is none of the house of Ahaziah to retain power for the kingdom.
Siden ledte han efter Ahasia, og de grebe ham, da han havde skjult sig i Samaria, og de førte ham til Jehu og dræbte ham og begrove ham; thi de sagde: Han er en Søn af Josafat, som søgte Herren af sit ganske Hjerte; og der var ingen af Ahasias Hus, som formaaede at overtage Riget.
10 And Athaliah mother of Ahaziah has seen that her son is dead, and she rises and destroys the whole seed of the kingdom of the house of Judah.
Der Athalia, Ahasias Moder, saa, at hendes Søn var død, da gjorde hun sig rede og udryddede hele den kongelige Slægt i Judas Hus.
11 And Jehoshabeath daughter of the king takes Joash son of Ahaziah, and steals him from the midst of the sons of the king who are put to death, and puts him and his nurse into the inner part of the bed-chambers, and Jehoshabeath daughter of King Jehoram, wife of Jehoiada the priest, because she has been sister of Ahaziah, hides him from the face of Athaliah, and she has not put him to death.
Men Josabeath, Kongens Datter, tog Joas, Ahasias Søn, og stjal ham midt ud fra Kongens Sønner, som bleve dræbte, og satte ham med sin Amme i Sengekammeret; og Josabeath, Kong Jorams Datter, Præsten Jojadas Hustru, skjulte ham (thi hun var Ahasias Søster) for Athalias Ansigt, saa at hun ikke fik ham dræbt.
12 And he is with them in the house of God hiding himself [for] six years, and Athaliah is reigning over the land.
Og han var skjult hos dem i Guds Hus seks Aar; men Athalia var Dronning i Landet.
