2 Tantara 22
1 Ary ny mponina tany Jerosalema nampanjaka an’ i Ahazia, faralahin’ i Jehorama, handimby azy; fa ny zokiny rehetra efa matin’ ny mpitoha ady izay nanaraka ny Arabo hatrany an-toby avokoa. Koa Ahazia, zanak’ i Jehorama, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, no nanjaka.
And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Achazyahu his youngest son king in his stead; for the predatory band that was come with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So became Achazyahu, the son of Jehoram the king of Judah, king.
2 Roa amby efa-polo taona Ahazia, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary herintaona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Atalia, zanak’ i Omry.
Forty and two years old was Achazyahu when he became king, and one year did he reign in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Athalyahu the [grand-]daughter of 'Omri.
3 Nandeha tamin’ ny lalan’ ny taranak’ i Ahaba koa izy; fa ny reniny no nanome saina azy hanao ratsy.
Also he walked in the ways of the house of Achab; for his mother was his counsellor to act wickedly.
4 Ka dia nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah toy ny taranak’ i Ahaba izy; fa ireny no nanome saina azy taorian’ ny nahafatesan’ ny rainy ka nampidi-doza taminy.
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord like the house of Achab; for these were his counsellors after the death of his father to his destruction.
5 Ary ny saina nomen’ ireo azy no narahiny, ka niara-nandeha tamin’ i Jorama, zanak’ i Ahaba, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, izy hiady tamin’ i Hazaela, mpanjakan’ i Syria, teo Ramota-gileada; ary ny Syriana nahavoa an’ i Jorama.
He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Achab the king of Israel to war against Chazael the king of Syria at Ramoth-gil'ad: and the Syrians smote Joram.
6 Dia niverina mba hotsaboina tao Jezirela izy amin’ ny feriny tamin’ ny nahavoazana azy tao Rama, fony izy niady tamin’ i Hazaela, mpanjakan’ i Syria. Ary Azaria, zanak’ i Jehorama, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, nidina mba hamangy an’ i Jorama, zanak’ i Ahaba, tao Jezirela, satria marary izy.
And he returned to be healed in Yizre'el because of the wounds which had been given him at Ramah, when he fought with Chazael the king of Syria. And 'Azaryahu the son of Jehoram the king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Achab at Yizre'el, because he was sick.
7 Ary avy tamin’ Andriamanitra ny loza nanjo an’ i Ahazia tamin’ ny nankanesany tany amin’ i Jorama, fa nony tonga izy, dia niara-nivoaka tamin’ i Jorama mba hitsena an’ i Jeho, zanak’ i Nimsy, izay nohosoran’ i Jehovah handringana ny taranak’ i Ahaba.
But from God was the confusion of Achazyahu that he should come to Joram: and when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the Lord had anointed to cut off the house of Achab.
8 Ary tamin’ ny namalian’ i Jeho ny taranak’ i Ahaba dia hitany ireo mpanapaka ny Joda sy ny zana-drahalahin’ i Ahazia, izay nanompo an’ i Ahazia, ka novonoiny.
And it came to pass, when Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Achab, that he found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brothers of Achazyahu, that ministered to Achazyahu, and he slew them.
9 Ary nitady an’ i Ahazia koa izy; koa nisy nahita azy, raha mbola niery tany Samaria izy, dia nitondra azy ho any amin’ i Jeho, ary namono azy ny olona ka nandevina azy; fa hoy ireo: Zanak’ i Josafata, ilay nitady an’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny fony rehetra, ity. Ka dia tsy nahatana ny fanjakana ny terak’ i Ahazia.
And he sought Achazyahu, and they caught him while he was hiding himself in Samaria, and they brought him to Jehu, and they slew him, and buried him; because they said, He is son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the Lord with all his heart. And there was none of the house of Achazyahu who had sufficient power [to obtain] the kingdom.
10 Ary nony hitan’ i Atalia, renin’ i Ahazia, fa maty ny zanany, dia nitsangana izy ka nandringana ny zanak’ andriana rehetra tamin’ ny taranak’ i Joda.
And when 'Athalyahu the mother of Achazyahu saw that her son was dead, she arose and exterminated all the royal seed of the house of Judah.
11 Fa Joseba, zanakavavin’ ny mpanjaka, dia naka an’ i Joasy, zanak’ i Ahazia, ka namonjy azy avy teo amin’ ny zanaky ny mpanjaka izay novonoina, dia nampiditra azy sy ny mpitaiza azy ho ao an-trano fitehirizam-pandriana. Ary nafenin’ i Joseba, zanakavavin’ i Jehorama mpanjaka, vadin’ i Joiada mpisorona, izy (fa anabavin’ i Ahazia ravehivavy) mba tsy ho hitan’ i Atalia, ka dia tsy mba voavonony izy.
But Yehoshab'ath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Achazyahu, and stole him away from the midst of the king's sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse into the bed-chamber. So did Yehoshab'ath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Yehoyada' the priest, —for she was the sister of Achazyahu, —hide him from 'Athalyahu, so that she slew him not.
12 Ary niery enin-taona tao aminy tao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra izy. Ary Atalia no nanjaka tamin’ ny tany
And he was with them in the house of God hidden six years, while 'Athalyah was reigning over the land.
