2 Crônicas 22
1 E os moradores de Jerusalém fizeram rei em lugar seu a Acazias seu filho menor: porque a tropa havia vindo com os árabes ao campo, havia morto a todos os maiores; por o qual reinou Acazias, filho de Jeorão 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 Quando Acazias começou a reinar era de quarenta e dois anos, e reinou um ano em Jerusalém. O nome de sua mãe foi Atalia, filha de Onri.
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 ele andou nos caminhos da casa de Acabe: porque sua mãe lhe aconselhava a agir 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 Fez, pois, o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR, como a casa de Acabe; porque depois da morte de seu pai, eles lhe aconselharam para 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 E ele andou nos conselhos deles, e foi à guerra com Jeorão filho de Acabe, rei de Israel, contra Hazael rei da Síria, a Ramote de Gileade, de onde os sírios feriram a Jeorão.
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 se voltou para curar-se em Jezreel das feridas que lhe haviam feito em Ramá, lutando com Hazael rei da Síria. E desceu Azarias filho de Jeorão, rei de Judá, a visitar a Jeorão filho de Acabe, em Jezreel, porque ali estava enfermo.
Then King Ahaziah went down to Jezreel [city] to see Joram, the son of [King] Ahab, because he had been wounded.
7 Isto, porém, vinha de Deus, para que Acazias fosse abatido vindo a Jeorão: porque sendo vindo, saiu com Jeorão contra Jeú filho de Ninsi, ao qual o SENHOR havia ungido para que exterminasse a casa de Acabe.
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 foi que, fazendo juízo Jeú com a casa de Acabe, achou aos príncipes de Judá, e aos filhos dos irmãos de Acazias, que serviam a Acazias, e matou-os.
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 E buscando a Acazias, o qual se havia escondido em Samaria, tomaram-no, e trouxeram-no a Jeú, e lhe mataram; e deram-lhe sepultura, porque disseram: É filho de Josafá, o qual buscou ao SENHOR de todo seu coração. E a casa de Acazias não tinha forças para para manter 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 Então Atalia mãe de Acazias, vendo que seu filho era morto, levantou-se e destruiu toda a descendência 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 Jeosebate, filha do rei, tomou a Joás filho de Acazias, e tirou-o dentre os filhos do rei, que foram mortos, e guardou a ele e a sua ama na câmara dos leitos. Assim pois o escondeu Jeosebate, filha do rei Jeorão, mulher de Joiada o sacerdote, (porque ela era irmã de Acazias), de diante de Atalia, e não o mataram.
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 durante seis anos. E Atalia reinava naquela terra.
He remained hidden there for six years while Athaliah ruled [Judah].
