2 Tawarikh 22
1 Lalu penduduk Yerusalem mengangkat Ahazia, anaknya yang bungsu, menjadi raja menggantikan dia, karena semua anaknya yang lebih tua umurnya telah dibunuh oleh gerombolan yang datang ke tempat perkemahan bersama-sama orang-orang Arab. Dengan demikian Ahazia, anak Yoram raja Yehuda, menjadi raja.
And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ochozias his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of robbers that came against them, even the Arabians and the Alimazonians, had slain all the elder ones. So Ochozias son of Joram king of Juda reigned.
2 Ahazia berumur empat puluh dua tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja dan setahun lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem. Nama ibunya ialah Atalya, cucu Omri.
Ochozias began to reign when he was twenty years old, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Gotholia, the daughter of Ambri.
3 Iapun hidup menurut kelakuan keluarga Ahab, karena ibunya menasihatinya untuk melakukan yang jahat.
And he walked in the way of the house of Achaab; for his mother was his counsellor to do evil.
4 Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN sama seperti keluarga Ahab, sebab sesudah ayahnya mati mereka menjadi penasihat-penasihatnya yang mencelakakannya.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord as the house of Achaab [had done]: for they were his counsellors after the death of his father to his destruction.
5 Atas nasihat mereka pula ia pergi bersama-sama Yoram bin Ahab, raja Israel, untuk berperang melawan Hazael, raja Aram, di Ramot-Gilead. Tetapi orang-orang Aram melukai Yoram.
And he walked in their counsels, and he went with Joram son of Achaab king of Israel to war against Azael king of Syria to Ramoth Galaad: and the archers struck Joram.
6 Kemudian pulanglah ia ke Yizreel untuk diobati oleh karena luka-luka yang didapatnya di Rama pada waktu ia berperang melawan Hazael, raja Aram. Dan Ahazia, anak Yoram raja Yehuda, pergi menjenguk Yoram bin Ahab di Yizreel, karena dia sakit.
And Joram returned to Jezrael to be healed of the wounds wherewith the Syrians struck him in Ramoth, when he fought against Azael king of Syria. And Ochozias son of Joram, king of Juda, went down to see Joram the son of Achaab at Jezrael because he was sick.
7 Telah ditentukan Allah, bahwa Ahazia akan menemui ajalnya pada waktu ia mengunjungi Yoram; maka ketika Ahazia datang, pergilah ia bersama-sama Yoram mendapatkan Yehu, cucu Nimsi, yang telah diurapi TUHAN, supaya dialah yang melenyapkan keluarga Ahab.
And destruction from God came upon Ochozias in [his] coming to Joram; for when he had come, Joram went out with him against Jeu the son of Namessei, the anointed of the Lord against the house of Achaab.
8 Sementara Yehu melakukan penghukuman atas keluarga Ahab, ia menjumpai pembesar-pembesar Yehuda dan anak-anak saudara-saudara Ahazia, yang melayani Ahazia. Juga mereka dibunuhnya.
And it came to pass, when Jeu was taking vengeance on the house of Achaab, that he found the princes of Juda and the brethren of Ochozias ministering to Ochozias, and he killed them.
9 Lalu ia mencari Ahazia; Ahazia tertangkap ketika ia bersembunyi di Samaria. Ia dibawa kepada Yehu, lalu dibunuh, tetapi dikuburkan juga, karena kata orang: "Dia ini cucu Yosafat, yang mencari TUHAN dengan segenap hatinya." Dari keluarga Ahazia tidak ada lagi yang sanggup memerintah.
And he gave orders to seek Ochozias: and they took him while he was healing his wounds in Samaria, and they brought him to Jeu, and he killed him; and they buried him, for they said, He is the son of Josaphat, who sought the Lord with all his heart. So there was none in the house of Ochozias to secure their power in the kingdom.
10 Ketika Atalya, ibu Ahazia, melihat bahwa anaknya sudah mati, maka bangkitlah ia membinasakan semua keturunan raja dari kaum Yehuda.
And Gotholia the mother of Ochozias saw that her son was dead, and she arose and destroyed all the seed royal in the house of Juda.
11 Tetapi Yosabat, anak perempuan raja, mengambil Yoas bin Ahazia, menculik dia dari tengah-tengah anak-anak raja yang hendak dibunuh itu, memasukkan dia dengan inang penyusunya ke dalam gudang tempat tidur. Demikianlah Yosabat, anak perempuan raja Yoram, isteri imam Yoyada, --ia adalah saudara perempuan Ahazia--menyembunyikan dia terhadap Atalya, sehingga ia tidak dibunuh Atalya.
But Josabeeth, the daughter of the king, took Joas the son of Ochozias and rescued him secretly out of the midst of the sons of the king that were put to death, and she placed him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Josabeeth daughter of king Joram, sister of Ochozias, wife of Jodae the priest, hid him, and she [even] hid him from Gotholia, and she did not kill him.
12 Maka tinggallah Yoas enam tahun lamanya bersama-sama mereka dengan bersembunyi di rumah Allah, sementara Atalya memerintah negeri.
And he was with him hid in the house of God six years; and Gotholia reigned over the land.
