2 Kroniška 22
1 Prebivalci Jeruzalema so namesto njega za kralja postavili njegovega najmlajšega sina Ahazjája, kajti četa mož, ki je prišla z Arabci k taboru, je umorila vse starejše. Tako je zakraljeval Ahazjá, sin Judovega kralja Jehoráma.
And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king, in his stead, for, all the elder sons, had the band of men slain who came in with the Arabians into the camp, —so Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.
2 Ahazjá je bil star dvainštirideset let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval eno leto. Ime njegove matere je bilo Ataljá, Omrijeva hči.
Forty-two years old, was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and, one year, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, was Athaliah, daughter of Omri.
3 Tudi on je hodil po poteh Ahábove hiše, kajti njegova mati je bila njegova svetovalka, da počne zlobno.
He too, walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, —for, his mother, became his counselor, to work lawlessness.
4 Zaradi česar je počel zlo v Gospodovih očeh, kakor Ahábova hiša, kajti bili so njegovi svetovalci po smrti njegovega očeta, njemu v uničenje.
Wherefore he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, like the house of Ahab, —for, they, became his counselors, after the death of his father, to his destruction.
5 Hodil je tudi po njihovem nasvetu in odšel z Ahábovim sinom Jehorámom, Izraelovim kraljem, da se vojskuje zoper sirskega kralja Hazaéla pri Ramót Gileádu. Sirci pa so udarili Joráma.
Even in their counsel, he walked, and went with Jehoram son of Ahab king of Israel, to war against Hazael king of Syria, in Ramoth-gilead, —and the Syrians smote Joram.
6 Vrnil se je, da bi bil ozdravljen v Jezreélu, zaradi ran, ki so mu bile zadane pri Rami, ko se je boril s sirskim kraljem Hazaélom. In Azarjá, Jehorámov sin, Judov kralj, je odšel dol, da pogleda Ahábovega sina Jehoráma pri Jezreélu, ker je bil bolan.
And he returned to be healed in Jezreel, because of the wounds wherewith they smote him in Ramah, when he fought with Hazael, king of Syria, —and, Azariah son of Jehoram king of Judah, went down to see Jehoram son of Ahab in Jezreel, because, sick, was he!
7 To je bilo od Boga, da je prišlo k Ahazjáju uničenje, da je šel k Jehorámu, kajti ko je prišel, je z Jehorámom odšel ven zoper Nimšíjevega sina Jehúja, ki ga je Gospod mazilil, da iztrebi Ahábovo hišo.
But, from God, came the downfall of Azariah, through his coming to Joram, —and because, through his coming, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu son of Nimshi, whom Yahweh had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.
8 Pripetilo se je, da ko je Jehú izvrševal sodbo nad Ahábovo hišo in našel Judove prince in sinove Ahazjájevih bratov, da služijo Ahazjáju, jih je usmrtil.
And so it came to pass, when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, —and found the rulers of Judah and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah ministering to Ahaziah, that he slew them.
9 Iskal je Ahazjá, in ujeli so ga (kajti skrit je bil v Samariji) ter ga privedli k Jehúju. Ko so ga umorili, so ga pokopali: »Ker, « so rekli, »on je Józafatov sin, ki je z vsem svojim srcem iskal Gospoda.« Tako Ahazjájeva hiša ni imela moči, da kraljestvo obdrži mirno.
And he sought Ahaziah, and they captured him, he, having hid himself in Samaria, and they brought him unto Jehu, and he put him to death, and they buried him, because, said they, he is, the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Yahweh with all his heart, —and, no one of the house of Ahaziah, had ability for the kingdom.
10 Toda ko je Ahazjájeva mati Ataljá videla, da je bil njen sin mrtev, je vstala in uničila vse kraljeve potomce Judove hiše.
But, when, Athaliah mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she rose up and destroyed all the seed royal of the house of Judah.
11 Toda kraljeva hči Jošébah je vzela Ahazjájevega sina Joáša in ga ukradla izmed kraljevih sinov, ki so bili umorjeni in postavila njega ter njegovo dojiljo v spalnico. Tako ga je Jošébah, hči kralja Jehoráma, žena duhovnika Jojadája (kajti bila je Ahazjájeva sestra) skrila pred Ataljo, tako da ga ta ni usmrtila.
But Jehoshabeath, daughter of the king, took Joash son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the sons of the king who were being slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber, —so Jehoshabeath daughter of King Jehoram—wife of Jehoiada the priest, for, she, was the sister of Ahaziah—hid him from the face of Athaliah so that she slew him not.
12 Šest let je bil z njimi skrit v Božji hiši, Ataljá pa je kraljevala nad deželo.
And it came to pass that he was with them, in the house of God, hidden six years, -while, Athaliah, was reigning over the land.
