2 Krønikebok 22
1 So tok Jerusalems-buarne Ahazja, den yngste son hans, til konge i staden hans; for dei eldste hadde røvarflokken drepe som hadde kome til lægret saman med arabarane. Soleis vart Ahazja Joramsson konge i Juda.
And the inhabitants of Jerusalem cause his youngest son Ahaziah to reign in his stead (for the troop had slain all the chiefly that came in with the Arabians to the camp), and Ahaziah son of Jehoram, king of Judah, reigns.
2 Tvo og tjuge år gamall var Ahazja då han vart konge, og eitt år var han konge i Jerusalem. Mor hans heitte Atalja og var dotter åt Omri.
Ahaziah [is] a son of twenty-two years in his reigning, and he has reigned one year in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Athaliah daughter of Omri;
3 Han gjekk på vegarne åt Ahabs hus; for mor hans forførde honom til gudløysa med råderne sine.
he has also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother has been his counselor to do wickedly.
4 Han gjorde det som vondt var i Herrens augo, liksom Ahabs hus; for til hans eige tjon vart dei rådgjevarene hans etter far hans var avliden.
And he does evil in the eyes of YHWH, like the house of Ahab, for they have been his counselors, after the death of his father, for destruction to him.
5 Etter deira råd for han og i herferd saman med Israels-kongen Joram Ahabsson, imot syrarkongen Hazael ved Ramot i Gilead. Men syrarane særde Joram.
Also, he has walked in their counsel, and goes with Jehoram son of Ahab, king of Israel, to battle against Hazael king of Aram in Ramoth-Gilead, and they of Ramah strike Joram;
6 Då snudde han attende og vilde få lækt dei såri i Jizre’el som dei hadde gjeve honom ved Rama, då han stridde med syrarkongen Hazael. Og Azarja, kongen i Juda, son åt Joram, drog ned til Jizre’el og vilde sjå um Joram Ahabsson, av di han var sjuk.
and he turns back to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds with which they had struck him in Ramah, in his fighting with Hazael king of Aram. And Azariah son of Jehoram, king of Judah, has gone down to see Jehoram son of Ahab in Jezreel, for he [is] sick;
7 Men til undergang for Ahazja hadde Gud laga det so, at han skulde koma til Joram, og når han kom, skulde han draga ut med Joram imot Jehu Nimsison, som Herren hadde salva til å øyda ut Ahabs hus.
and to come to Joram has been from God [for] the destruction of Ahaziah; and in his coming he has gone out with Jehoram to Jehu son of Nimshi, whom YHWH anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.
8 For då Jehu sette i verk domen yver Ahabs hus, då råka han hovdingarne i Juda og brorsønerne åt Ahazja, som gjekk Ahazja til handa, og han drap deim.
And it comes to pass, in Jehu’s executing judgment with the house of Ahab, that he finds the heads of Judah and sons of the brothers of Ahaziah, ministers of Ahaziah, and slays them.
9 So leita han etter Ahazja, og dei greip honom då han gøymde seg i Samaria, og leidde honom til Jehu, som let honom drepa. Like vel gravlagde dei honom; for dei kom i hug at han var son åt Josafat, som heldt seg til Herren med heile sitt hjarta. Men det var ingen att av huset åt Ahazja som var sterk nok til å taka kongedømet.
And he seeks Ahaziah, and they capture him (and he is hiding himself in Samaria), and bring him to Jehu, and put him to death, and bury him, for they said, “He [is] son of Jehoshaphat, who sought YHWH with all his heart”; and there is none of the house of Ahaziah to retain power for the kingdom.
10 Då Atalja, mor åt Ahazja, fekk vita at son hennar var dåen, tok ho seg fyre å tyna heile kongsætti i Judas hus.
And Athaliah mother of Ahaziah has seen that her son is dead, and she rises and destroys the whole seed of the kingdom of the house of Judah.
11 Men Josabat, dotter åt kongen, tok Joas Ahazjason, og fekk honom burt ifrå kongssønerne, som var drepne, og fekk honom og fostermor hans inn i sengkammerset. Soleis gøymde Josabat, dotter åt kong Joram og kona åt presten Jojada - for ho var syster åt Ahazja - honom for Atalja, so ho fekk ikkje drepe honom.
And Jehoshabeath daughter of the king takes Joash son of Ahaziah, and steals him from the midst of the sons of the king who are put to death, and puts him and his nurse into the inner part of the bed-chambers, and Jehoshabeath daughter of King Jehoram, wife of Jehoiada the priest, because she has been sister of Ahaziah, hides him from the face of Athaliah, and she has not put him to death.
12 So var han hjå deim i Guds hus burtgøymd i seks år, medan Atalja styrde i landet.
And he is with them in the house of God hiding himself [for] six years, and Athaliah is reigning over the land.
