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.
Afei, ɔmanfo a wɔwɔ Yerusalem no sii Yehoram babarima kumaa Ahasia ɔhene a odi hɔ. Na Arabfo afowfo akuw akunkum mmabarima mpanyimfo no nyinaa. Ɛno nti, Yehoram babarima kumaa Ahasia na odii hene wɔ Yuda.
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.
Bere a Ahasia dii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia aduonu abien, na odii ade wɔ Yerusalem afe. Na ne na a ɔyɛ Israelhene Omri nena no din de Atalia.
3 He too, walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, —for, his mother, became his counselor, to work lawlessness.
Ahasia nso yɛɛ ɔhene Ahab abusua bɔne a wɔyɛe no bi, efisɛ ne na hyɛɛ no nkuran wɔ bɔneyɛ mu.
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.
Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so sɛnea Ahab yɛe no. Nʼagya wu akyi no, Ahab abusuafo na wɔbɛyɛɛ nʼafotufo. Wɔn na wɔde no kɔɔ ɔsɛe mu.
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.
Esiane wɔn afotu bɔne nti, Ahasia de ne ho kɔbɔɔ ɔhene Yoram a ɔyɛ Israelhene Ahab babarima ho. Wotuu Aramhene Hasael so sa wɔ Ramot-Gilead. Ɔko no mu no, Aramfo no piraa Yoram.
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!
Yoram san kɔɔ Yesreel kɔsaa nʼapirakuru no, na Yudahene Ahasia kɔɔ Yesreel kɔsraa no.
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.
Na eyi dan mfomso kɛse, efisɛ na Onyankopɔn ayɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛtwe Ahasia aso. Saa nsrahwɛ yi mu na Ahasia ne Yoram kohyiaa Nimsi babarima Yehu, a na Onyankopɔn ayi no sɛ ontwa Ahab fi adedi ntoatoaso no so.
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.
Bere a Yehu rebu atɛn atia Ahab fi no, ohyiaa Yuda mpanyimfo ne Ahasia abusuafo bi a na wɔresom Ahasia. Enti Yehu kunkum wɔn nyinaa.
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.
Afei, Yehu mmarima hwehwɛɛ Ahasia, na wokohuu no sɛ wakɔtɛw Samaria kuropɔn no mu. Wɔde no brɛɛ Yehu ma okum no. Wosiee Ahasia ma ɛyɛɛ fɛ, efisɛ nnipa dii ne ho adanse se, “Ɔyɛ Yehosafat a ɔde ne koma nyinaa hwehwɛɛ Awurade no nena.” Na Ahasia abusua mu nnipa a wɔkaa akyi no mu biara amfata sɛ ɔbɛtoa ahenni no so.
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.
Bere a Yudahene Ahasia ne na Atalia tee sɛ ne babarima no awu no, ɔkekaa ne ho, pɛɛ sɛ ɔsɛe Yuda adehye abusua no.
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.
Nanso Ahasia nuabea Yehoseba, a na ɔyɛ ɔhene Yehoram babea, faa Ahasia babarima akokoaa Yoas fii ɔhene no mma a wɔaka a wɔrebekum wɔn no mu. Ɔde Yoas ne onipa a ɔhwɛ no no kosiee pia bi mu. Eyi ne ɔkwan a ɔsɔfo Yehoiada yere Yehoseba faa so de abofra no siei, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ na Atalia rennya no nkum no.
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.
Yoas hyɛɛ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan mu hɔ mfe asia, bere a na Atalia di ɔman no so no.
