2 Makoronike 22
1 Vanhu veJerusarema vakaita Ahazia, mwanakomana waJehoramu mudiki pane vose, mambo panzvimbo yake, nokuti vapambi vakanga vauya navaArabhu muJudha, vakanga vauraya vamwe vanakomana vake vakuru. Saka Ahazia, mwanakomana waJehoramu mambo weJudha, akatanga kutonga.
AND the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.
2 Ahazia aiva namakore makumi maviri namaviri paakava mambo, uye akatonga muJerusarema kwegore rimwe chete. Mai vake vainzi Ataria, muzukuru waOmuri.
Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Athaliah the daughter of Omri.
3 Iyewo akafamba munzira dzeimba yaAhabhu nokuti mai vake vaimukurudzira kuita zvakaipa.
He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab: for his mother was his counseller to do wickedly.
4 Akaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha sezvakanga zvaitwa neveimba yaAhabhu nokuti baba vake pavakafa, ivo vakatanga kumupa mazano.
Wherefore he did evil in the sight of the Lord like the house of Ahab: for they were his counsellers after the death of his father to his destruction.
5 Akateverazve kurayira kwavo paakaenda naJoramu mwanakomana waAhabhu mambo weIsraeri kuhondo vachirwisana naHazaeri mambo weAramu paRamoti Gireadhi. VaAramu vakakuvadza Joramu.
He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramoth-gilead: and the Syrians smote Joram.
6 Saka akadzokera kuJezireeri kuti ambondopora maronda aakanga akuvara paRamoti paairwa naHazaeri mambo weAramu. Ipapo Ahazia mwanakomana waJehoramu mambo weJudha akadzika kuJezireeri kundoona Joramu mwanakomana waAhabhu nokuti akanga akuvara.
And he returned to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds which were given him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jezreel, because he was sick.
7 Mukushanya kwaAhazia kuna Joramu, Mwari akauyisa kuparadzwa kwaAhazia. Ahazia paakasvika akaenda naJoramu kundosangana naJehu mwanakomana waNimishi, uyo akanga azodzwa naJehovha kuti aparadze imba yaAhabhu.
And the destruction of Ahaziah was of God by coming to Joram: for 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 Ahab.
8 Jehu paakanga ava kutonga imba yaAhabhu akawana machinda eJudha navanakomana vehama dzaAhazia, vakanga vachishandira Ahazia, akavauraya.
And it came to pass, that, when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, and found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, that ministered to Ahaziah, he slew them.
9 Ipapo akaenda kundotsvaka Ahazia, uye vanhu vake vakamubata paakanga akavanda muSamaria. Akauyiswa kuna Jehu, ndokuurayiwa. Vakamuviga nokuti vakati, “Akanga ari mwanakomana waJehoshafati, aitsvaga Mwari nomwoyo wake wose.” Saka pakasara pasina akanga akasimba muimba yaAhazia zvokuti angagona kubata ushe.
And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in Samaria, ) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain him, they buried him: Because, said they, he is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the Lord with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom.
10 Ataria mai vaAhazia pavakaona kuti mwanakomana wavo afa, vakasimuka vakandoparadza mhuri yose youmambo hweimba yaJudha.
But when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal of the house of Judah.
11 Asi Jehoshebha, mwanasikana waMambo Jehoramu akatora Joashi mwanakomana waAhazia uya akamuba kubva pakati pavanakomana vamambo avo vakanga vava kuda kuurayiwa uye akamuisa iye nomureri wake mumba mokuvata. Nokuti Jehoshebha, mwanasikana wamambo Jehoramu nomukadzi womuprista Jehoyadha, aiva hanzvadzi yaAhazia, akaviga mwana kubva kuna Ataria kuti asamuuraya.
But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king’s sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah, ) hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not.
12 Akaramba akavanzwa navo patemberi yaMwari kwamakore matanhatu Ataria paaitonga nyika.
And he was with them hid in the house of God six years: and Athaliah reigned over the land.
