2 Chronicles 22
1 And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king, in his stead, for, all the elder sons, had the band of men slain who came in with the Arabians into the camp, —so Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.
Constituerunt autem habitatores Ierusalem Ochoziam filium eius minimum, regem pro eo: omnes enim maiores natu, qui ante eum fuerant, interfecerant latrones Arabum, qui irruerant in castra: regnavitque Ochozias filius Ioram regis Iuda.
2 Forty-two years old, was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and, one year, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, was Athaliah, daughter of Omri.
Quadraginta duorum annorum erat Ochozias cum regnare cœpisset, et uno anno regnavit in Ierusalem, et nomen matris eius Athalia filia Amri.
3 He too, walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, —for, his mother, became his counselor, to work lawlessness.
Sed et ipse ingressus est per vias domus Achab: mater enim eius impulit eum ut impie ageret.
4 Wherefore he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, like the house of Ahab, —for, they, became his counselors, after the death of his father, to his destruction.
Fecit igitur malum in conspectu Domini, sicut domus Achab: ipsi enim fuerunt ei consiliarii post mortem patris sui, in interitum eius.
5 Even in their counsel, he walked, and went with Jehoram son of Ahab king of Israel, to war against Hazael king of Syria, in Ramoth-gilead, —and the Syrians smote Joram.
Ambulavitque in consiliis eorum. Et perrexit cum Ioram filio Achab rege Israel, in bellum contra Hazael regem Syriæ in Ramoth Galaad: vulneraveruntque Syri Ioram.
6 And he returned to be healed in Jezreel, because of the wounds wherewith they smote him in Ramah, when he fought with Hazael, king of Syria, —and, Azariah son of Jehoram king of Judah, went down to see Jehoram son of Ahab in Jezreel, because, sick, was he!
Qui reversus est ut curaretur in Iezrahel: multas enim plagas acceperat in supradicto certamine. Igitur Ochozias filius Ioram rex Iuda, descendit ut inviseret Ioram filium Achab in Iezrahel ægrotantem.
7 But, from God, came the downfall of Azariah, through his coming to Joram, —and because, through his coming, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu son of Nimshi, whom Yahweh had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.
Voluntatis quippe fuit Dei adversus Ochoziam, ut veniret ad Ioram: et cum venisset, et egrederetur cum eo adversum Iehu filium Namsi, quem unxit Dominus ut deleret domum Achab.
8 And so it came to pass, when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, —and found the rulers of Judah and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah ministering to Ahaziah, that he slew them.
Cum ergo everteret Iehu domum Achab, invenit principes Iuda, et filios fratrum Ochoziæ, qui ministrabant ei, et interfecit illos.
9 And he sought Ahaziah, and they captured him, he, having hid himself in Samaria, and they brought him unto Jehu, and he put him to death, and they buried him, because, said they, he is, the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Yahweh with all his heart, —and, no one of the house of Ahaziah, had ability for the kingdom.
Ipsum quoque perquirens Ochoziam, comprehendit latitantem in Samaria: adductumque ad se, occidit, et sepelierunt eum: eo quod esset filius Iosaphat, qui quæsierat Dominum in toto corde suo. Nec erat ultra spes aliqua ut de stirpe quis regnaret Ochoziæ.
10 But, when, Athaliah mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she rose up and destroyed all the seed royal of the house of Judah.
Siquidem Athalia mater eius videns quod mortuus esset filius suus, surrexit, et interfecit omnem stirpem regiam domus Ioram.
11 But Jehoshabeath, daughter of the king, took Joash son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the sons of the king who were being slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber, —so Jehoshabeath daughter of King Jehoram—wife of Jehoiada the priest, for, she, was the sister of Ahaziah—hid him from the face of Athaliah so that she slew him not.
Porro Iosabeth filia regis tulit Ioas filium Ochoziæ, et furata est eum de medio filiorum regis, cum interficerentur: absconditque eum cum nutrice sua in cubiculo lectulorum: Iosabeth autem, quæ absconderat eum, erat filia regis Ioram, uxor Ioiadæ pontificis, soror Ochoziæ, et idcirco Athalia non interfecit eum.
12 And it came to pass that he was with them, in the house of God, hidden six years, -while, Athaliah, was reigning over the land.
Fuit ergo cum eis in domo Dei absconditus sex annis, quibus regnavit Athalia super terram.
