2 Chronicles 22
1 The people of Jerusalem appointed Jehoram’s youngest son Ahaziah as their king, because the men [from Philistia] who had invaded Judah with some Arabs had killed all of Jehoram’s other sons. So Ahaziah started to rule Judah.
Jo-Jerusalem noketo Ahazia wuod Jehoram ma chogo nobedo ruoth kare nikech joma nomonjogi kaachiel gi jo-Arabu manobiro e lwenyno nosenego yawuot Jehoram madongo duto. Omiyo Ahazia wuod Jehoram ruodh Juda nochako rito loch.
2 Ahaziah was 22 years old when he became king. He ruled in Jerusalem for one year. His mother’s name was Athaliah, a granddaughter of [King] Omri [of Israel].
Ahazia ne ja-higni piero ariyo gariyo kane obedo ruoth kendo norito piny kuom higa achiel kodak Jerusalem. Min mare ne nyinge Athalia ma nyakwar Omri.
3 King Ahaziah conducted his life just like the members of Ahab’s family had done, because his mother encouraged him to do things that are evil.
En bende noluwo timbe mag od Ahab nimar min mare nojiwe mondo otim timbe maricho.
4 He did things that Yahweh considers to be evil, like the descendants of Ahab had done, because after Ahaziah’s father died, they became his advisors. And Ahaziah died as a result of heeding their bad advice.
Notimo timbe mamono e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mana kaka jood Ahab nosetimo nikech bangʼ tho wuon mare gin ema ne gingʼadone rieko marach mane okethe.
5 He also did what they advised when he went with Joram, the son of King Ahab of Israel, to fight against the army of Hazael, the king of Syria, at Ramoth-Gilead.
Bende noluwo puonjgi kane oriwore gi Joram wuod Ahab ruodh Israel mondo giked kod Hazael ruodh Aram e piny Ramoth Gilead. Jo-Aram nohinyo Joram;
6 Then King Ahaziah went down to Jezreel [city] to see Joram, the son of [King] Ahab, because he had been wounded.
omiyo nodok Jezreel mondo ochangi kuom hinyruok manoyudo Ramoth ka nokedo gi Hazael ruodh Aram. Eka Ahazia wuod Jehoram ruodh Juda nodhi Jezreel mondo one Joram wuod Ahab nikech nohinye.
7 It was during that visit that God caused Ahaziah to die. When Ahaziah arrived, he went with Joram to meet Jehu, the son of Nimshi, whom Yahweh had appointed to kill all the descendants of Ahab.
To Nyasaye nosechano mondo otiek Ahazia kodhi limo Joram. Kane Ahazia ochopo negidhi gi Joram mondo girom gi Jehu wuod Nimshi mane Jehova Nyasaye osewiro mondo otiek dhood Ahab.
8 While Jehu [and the men who were with him] were killing the descendants of Ahab, they found the leaders of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah’s relatives who had been working for Ahaziah, and they killed all of them.
Kane Jehu ngʼado bura ni dhood Ahab, nonwangʼo yawuot ruoth moa e dhood ruodhi mag Juda kaachiel gi yawuot wede Ahazia mane osebedo katiyone kendo nonegogi.
9 Then Jehu went to find Ahaziah, and his soldiers found Ahaziah while he was hiding in Samaria [city]. They brought him to Jehu and executed him. Then they buried his corpse, because they said, “[He deserves to be buried, because] he was a descendant of Jehoshaphat, who tried hard to please Yahweh.” There were no descendants of Ahaziah who were powerful enough to become the kings of Judah.
Bangʼe nodhi mondo omany Ahazia kendo joge nonwangʼe kopondo Samaria. Nokele ne Jehu mine onege. Ne giike kagiwacho niya, “Ne en wuod Jehoshafat manoluwo Jehova Nyasaye gi chunye duto.” Omiyo ne onge ngʼato moro amora motegno e od Ahazia mane nyalo rito piny.
10 When Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son had been killed, she commanded that all the members of Ahaziah’s family [who might become king] must be executed.
Kane Athalia min Ahazia noneno ni wuode osetho, nodhi mondo otiek anywola mar joka ruoth mar Juda duto.
11 But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Jehoram, took Joash, Ahaziah’s very young son, away from the other sons of the king who were about to be murdered, and she hid him and his nursemaid in a bedroom in the temple. Because Jehosheba, who was the daughter of King Jehoram and the wife of the Supreme Priest Jehoiada, was Ahaziah’s sister, she hid the child, with the result that Athaliah could not kill him.
To Jehosheba nyar ruoth Jehoram nokawo Joash wuod Ahazia kendo nokwale lingʼ-lingʼ kuom nyithi ruoth mane idwaro nego mopande e od nindo kaachiel gi japite. Nikech Jehosheba nyar ruoth Jehoram mane chi Jehoyada jadolo ne nyamin Ahazia, nopando nyathino ne Athalia mondo kik onege.
12 He remained hidden there for six years while Athaliah ruled [Judah].
Nodongʼ kopande ei hekalu mar Nyasaye kuom higni auchiel e kinde loch Athalia.
