2 Crônicas 22
1 E os moradores de Jerusalém fizeram rei a Achazias, seu filho mais moço, em seu lugar: porque a tropa, que viera com os arabios ao arraial, tinha morto a todos os mais velhos: e assim reinou Achazias, filho de Jorão, rei de Judá.
The people of Jerusalem appointed Jehoram’s youngest son Ahaziah as their king, because the men [from Philistia] who had invaded Judah with some Arabs had killed all of Jehoram’s other sons. So Ahaziah started to rule Judah.
2 Era da idade de quarenta e dois anos, quando começou a reinar, e reinou um ano em Jerusalém: e era o nome de sua mãe Athalia, filha d'Omri.
Ahaziah was 22 years old when he became king. He ruled in Jerusalem for one year. His mother’s name was Athaliah, a granddaughter of [King] Omri [of Israel].
3 Também este andou nos caminhos da casa d'Achab; porque sua mãe era sua conselheira, para obrar impiamente.
King Ahaziah conducted his life just like the members of Ahab’s family had done, because his mother encouraged him to do things that are evil.
4 E fez o que era mal aos olhos do Senhor, como a casa d'Achab, porque eles eram seus conselheiros depois da morte de seu pai, para a sua perdição.
He did things that Yahweh considers to be evil, like the descendants of Ahab had done, because after Ahaziah’s father died, they became his advisors. And Ahaziah died as a result of heeding their bad advice.
5 Também andou no seu conselho, e foi-se com Jorão, filho d'Achab, rei de Israel, à peleja contra Hazael, rei da Síria, junto a Ramoth-gilead: e os siros feriram a Jorão,
He also did what they advised when he went with Joram, the son of King Ahab of Israel, to fight against the army of Hazael, the king of Syria, at Ramoth-Gilead.
6 E tornou a curar-se em Jezreel, das feridas que se lhe deram junto a Rama, pelejando contra Hazael, rei da Síria: e Azarias, filho de Jorão, rei de Judá, desceu para ver a Jorão, filho d'Achab, em Jezreel; porque estava doente.
Then King Ahaziah went down to Jezreel [city] to see Joram, the son of [King] Ahab, because he had been wounded.
7 Veio pois de Deus o abatimento d'Achazias, para que viesse a Jorão; porque vindo ele, saiu com Jorão contra Jehu, filho de Nimsi, a quem o Senhor tinha ungido para desarreigar a casa d'Achab.
It was during that visit that God caused Ahaziah to die. When Ahaziah arrived, he went with Joram to meet Jehu, the son of Nimshi, whom Yahweh had appointed to kill all the descendants of Ahab.
8 E sucedeu que, executando Jehu juízo contra a casa d'Achab, achou os príncipes de Judá e os filhos dos irmãos d'Achazias, que serviam a Achazias, e os matou.
While Jehu [and the men who were with him] were killing the descendants of Ahab, they found the leaders of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah’s relatives who had been working for Ahaziah, and they killed all of them.
9 Depois buscou a Achazias (porque se tinha escondido em Samaria), e o alcançaram, e o trouxeram a Jehu, e o mataram, e o sepultaram; porque disseram: Filho é de Josaphat, que buscou ao Senhor com todo o seu coração. E não tinha já a casa d'Achazias ninguém que tivesse força para o reino.
Then Jehu went to find Ahaziah, and his soldiers found Ahaziah while he was hiding in Samaria [city]. They brought him to Jehu and executed him. Then they buried his corpse, because they said, “[He deserves to be buried, because] he was a descendant of Jehoshaphat, who tried hard to please Yahweh.” There were no descendants of Ahaziah who were powerful enough to become the kings of Judah.
10 Vendo pois Athalia, mãe d'Achazias, que seu filho era morto, levantou-se, e destruiu, toda a semente real da casa de Judá.
When Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son had been killed, she commanded that all the members of Ahaziah’s family [who might become king] must be executed.
11 Porém Josebath, filha do rei, tomou a Joás, filho d'Achazias, e furtou-o dentre os filhos do rei, a quem matavam, e o pôs com a sua ama na câmara dos leitos: assim Josebath, filha do rei Jorão, mulher do sacerdote Joiada (porque era irmã d'Achazias), o escondeu de diante d'Athalia, de modo que o não matou.
But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Jehoram, took Joash, Ahaziah’s very young son, away from the other sons of the king who were about to be murdered, and she hid him and his nursemaid in a bedroom in the temple. Because Jehosheba, who was the daughter of King Jehoram and the wife of the Supreme Priest Jehoiada, was Ahaziah’s sister, she hid the child, with the result that Athaliah could not kill him.
12 E esteve com eles escondido na casa de Deus seis anos: e Athalia reinou sobre a terra.
He remained hidden there for six years while Athaliah ruled [Judah].
