Kronika 2 22
1 Yerusalem nɔlawo tsɔ Ahazia, Yehoram ƒe viŋutsu suetɔ ɖo fiae ɖe fofoa teƒe elabena adzoha aɖewo va kple Arabiatɔwo, woge ɖe woƒe aʋasaɖa me eye wowu Via ŋutsu tsitsitɔwo katã. Ale Ahazia, Yuda fia, Yehoram ƒe viŋutsu dze fiaɖuɖu gɔme.
The people of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, Jehoram's youngest son, king in succession to his father, since the invaders who had entered the camp with the Arabians had killed all the older sons. So Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, became king of Judah.
2 Ahazia xɔ ƒe blaeve-vɔ-eve esi wòzu fia eye wòɖu fia ƒe ɖeka le Yerusalem. Dadae nye Atalia, ame si nye Omri ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi.
Ahaziah was twenty-two when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri.
3 Ahazia hã nye fia vɔ̃ɖi aɖe abe Ahab ene elabena dadaa do ŋusẽe be wòanɔ nu vɔ̃ wɔwɔ dzi.
Ahaziah also followed the evil ways of the family of Ahab, for his mother encouraged him to do wicked things.
4 Enye fia vɔ̃ɖi aɖe abe Ahab ene elabena Ahab ƒe ƒometɔwo zu eƒe aɖaŋuɖolawo le fofoa ƒe ku megbe eye woblee de gbegblẽ me.
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, just as the family of Ahab had done. For after his father's death they were his counselors, to his ruin.
5 Ahazia zɔ ɖe woƒe aɖaŋu vɔ̃ nu eye wòwɔ ɖeka kple Yoram, Israel fia Ahab ƒe vi, hekpe aʋa kpli Aram fia Hazael le Ramot Gilead. Aramtɔwo de abi Yoram ŋu le aʋa sia me.
He also followed their advice in joining with Joram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, in attacking Hazael, king of Aram, in Ramoth Gilead. The Arameans wounded Joram,
6 Eya ta egbɔ va Yezreel be yeagbɔ ɖe eme, eye yeakpɔ egbɔ be woda gbe le abi siwo wode eŋu le Ramot, esime wòwɔ aʋa kple Aram fia Hazael la ŋu. Ke Ahazia si nye Yuda fia Yehoram ƒe vi, yi Yezerel be yeakpɔ Ahab vi Yoram ɖa ɖe eƒe abixɔxɔ ta.
and he returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he'd received in Ramah fighting against Hazael king of Aram. Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went to Jezreel to visit Joram, son of Ahab, because Joram was wounded.
7 Nu sia trɔ zu vodada gã aɖe wòwɔ, elabena Mawu ɖo be yeahe to na Ahazia le eƒe ɖekawɔwɔ kple Yoram ta. Ɣeyiɣi sia mee Ahazia kple Yehoram kpe ɖe Yehu, Nimsi ƒe vi, ŋu le esime wònye Yehue Yehowa ɖo ɖa be, wòatsi Ahab ƒe viwo ƒe fiaɖuɖu nu.
Azariah's downfall came from God when he went to see Joram. When Azariah got there, he went with Joram to meet Jehu, son of Nimri. The Lord had anointed Jehu to destroy Ahab and his family.
8 Esime Yehu nɔ Ahab ƒe ƒometɔwo kple xɔlɔ̃wo wum la, edo go Ahazia ƒe viŋutsuwo, ame siwo nye Yuda ƒe fiaviŋutsuwo eye wòwu wo.
While Jehu was carrying out judgment on the family of Ahab, he came across the leaders of Judah and Azariah's relatives who were assisting Ahaziah, and he killed them.
9 Esi Yehu kple eƒe amewo nɔ Ahazia dim la, wokpɔe wòbe ɖe Samaria du me, wolée yi na Yehu eye wòwui. Woɖi Ahazia abe fia ene elabena Fia Yehosafat, ame si subɔ Yehowa kple dzi blibo la ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvie. Ahazia ƒe vi Yoas koe tsi agbe aɖu fia ɖe eteƒe;
Then Jehu went looking for Ahaziah. His men found him in Samaria and captured him, and took him to Jehu where they killed him. They buried him, for they said, “He is the grandson of Jehoshaphat, who was completely committed to following the Lord.” There was no one left from Ahaziah's family to rule the kingdom.
10 Esi Atalia, Ahazia dada kpɔ be ye viŋutsu ku la, eɖawu fia la ƒe ƒometɔwo katã, ame siwo nɔ Yuda ƒe aƒe la me.
When Athaliah Ahaziah's mother found out that her son was dead, she proceeded to kill all who remained of the royal family of Judah.
11 Ke Yehoseba fia, Yehoram ƒe vinyɔnu kplɔ Yoas, Ahazia ƒe viŋutsu eye wòkplɔe sii le fiaviŋutsuwo, ame siwo wogbɔna wuwu ge la dome eye wòtsɔ eya kple edzikpɔla ɣla ɖe xɔ gã me. Yehoseba, fia Yehoram ƒe vinyɔnu kple nunɔla Yehoiada srɔ̃, ame si hã nye Ahazia nɔvinyɔnu la ɣla ɖevi la ɖe Atalia be mate ŋu akpɔe awu o.
But Jehoshabeath, daughter of King Jehoram, grabbed Joash, son of Ahaziah, and took him from the sons of the king who were about to be killed, and she placed him and his nurse in a bedroom. Because Jehoshabeath, the daughter of King Jehoram and the wife of Jehoiada the priest, was Ahaziah's sister, she hid Joash from Athaliah so she couldn't kill him.
12 Yoas nɔ bebeƒe kpli wo le Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la me ƒe ade sɔŋ, esime Atalia nɔ anyigba la dzi ɖum.
And they kept Joash hidden with them in God's Temple for six years while Athaliah ruled the country.
