2 Istwa 22
1 Pèp Jérusalem la te fè Achazia, pi piti fis li a, wa nan plas li, akoz bann mesye ki te vini ak Arab yo nan kan an te touye tout pi gran yo. Konsa Achazia, fis a Joram nan, wa Juda a te kòmanse renye.
And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.
2 Achazia te gen venn-dezan lè l te devni wa a e li te renye ennan Jérusalem. Non manman l te Athalie, fi a Omri.
Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Athaliah the daughter of Omri.
3 Li menm tou te mache nan chemen lakay Achab yo, paske manman li te konseye li pou fè mal.
He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab: for his mother was his counsellor to do wickedly.
4 Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a tankou Achab, paske yo te konseye li apre lanmò papa l, jiskaske sa te fin detwi li.
Therefore he did evil in the sight of the LORD like the house of Ahab: for they were his counsellors after the death of his father to his destruction.
5 Li te osi mache selon konsèy pa yo, e te ale avèk Joram, fis a Achab la, wa Israël la pou fè lagè kont Hazaël, wa Syrie a nan Ramoth-Galaad. Men Siryen yo te blese Joram.
He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramothgilead: and the Syrians smote Joram.
6 Pou sa, li te retounen pou geri nan Jizreel akoz blese ke yo te ba li nan Rama yo, lè li te fin goumen kont Hazaël, wa Syrie a. Epi Achazia, fis a Joram nan, wa Juda a, te desann pou wè Joram, fis a Achab la Jizreel, akoz li te malad.
And he returned to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds which were given him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jezreel, because he was sick.
7 Alò, destriksyon Achazia te sòti nan Bondye akoz li te ale kote Joram. Paske lè l te desann, li te sòti avèk Joram kont Jéhu, fis a Nimschi a, ke SENYÈ a te chwazi pou detwi lakay Achab.
And the destruction of Ahaziah was from God by coming to Joram: for when he had come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.
8 Li te vin rive ke lè Jéhu t ap egzekite jijman sou lakay Achab la, li te twouve chèf a Juda yo avèk fis a frè Achazia ki t ap sèvi Achazia yo, e li te touye yo.
And it came to pass, that, when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, and found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, that ministered to Ahaziah, he slew them.
9 Anplis, li te chache Achazia, epi yo te kenbe li pandan li te kache Samarie a. Yo te mennen li kote Jéhu, yo te mete li a lanmò, e te antere li. Paske yo te di: “Li se fis a Josaphat, ki te chache SENYÈ a ak tout kè li a.” Konsa, pa t gen moun lakay Achazia pou te kenbe pouvwa wayòm nan.
And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in Samaria, ) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain him, they buried him: Because, said they, he is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no power to retain the kingdom.
10 Alò lè Athalie, manman Achazia a, te wè ke fis li a te mouri, li te leve e te detwi tout pitit wa lakay Juda yo.
But when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal of the house of Judah.
11 Men Joschabeath, fi a wa a te pran fis a Achazia a e te rache li soti nan mitan fis a wa a ke yo t ap touye yo, e li te plase li avèk nouris li nan chanm dòmi an. Konsa, Joschabeath, fi a Wa Joram nan, madanm a Jehojada, prèt la (paske li te sè Achazia), te kache li pou Athalie pa t kab mete l a lanmò.
But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king’s sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah, ) hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not.
12 Li te kache yo lakay SENYÈ a pandan sizan pandan Athalie t ap renye sou peyi a.
And he was with them hid in the house of God six years: and Athaliah reigned over the land.
