< ٢ أخبار 22 >

وَمَلَّكَ سُكَّانُ أُورُشَلِيمَ أَخَزْيَا ٱبْنَهُ ٱلْأَصْغَرَ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ، لِأَنَّ جَمِيعَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ قَتَلَهُمُ ٱلْغُزَاةُ ٱلَّذِينَ جَاءُوا مَعَ ٱلْعَرَبِ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ. فَمَلَكَ أَخَزْيَا بْنُ يَهُورَامَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا. ١ 1
The people of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, Jehoram's youngest son, king in succession to his father, since the invaders who had entered the camp with the Arabians had killed all the older sons. So Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, became king of Judah.
كَانَ أَخَزْيَا ٱبْنَ ٱثْنَتَيْنِ وَأَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ سَنَةً وَاحِدَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ عَثَلْيَا بِنْتُ عُمْرِي. ٢ 2
Ahaziah was twenty-two when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri.
وَهُوَ أَيْضًا سَلَكَ فِي طُرُقِ بَيْتِ أَخْآبَ لِأَنَّ أُمَّهُ كَانَتْ تُشِيرُ عَلَيْهِ بِفِعْلِ ٱلشَّرِّ. ٣ 3
Ahaziah also followed the evil ways of the family of Ahab, for his mother encouraged him to do wicked things.
فَعَمِلَ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ مِثْلَ بَيْتِ أَخْآبَ لِأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا لَهُ مُشِيرِينَ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ أَبِيهِ لِإِبَادَتِهِ. ٤ 4
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, just as the family of Ahab had done. For after his father's death they were his counselors, to his ruin.
فَسَلَكَ بِمَشُورَتِهِمْ وَذَهَبَ مَعَ يُهورَامَ بْنِ أَخْآبَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِمُحَارَبَةِ حَزَائِيلَ مَلِكِ أَرَامَ فِي رَامُوتِ جِلْعَادَ. وَضَرَبَ ٱلْأَرَامِيُّونَ يُورَامَ ٥ 5
He also followed their advice in joining with Joram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, in attacking Hazael, king of Aram, in Ramoth Gilead. The Arameans wounded Joram,
فَرَجَعَ لِيَبْرَأَ فِي يَزْرَعِيلَ بِسَبَبِ ٱلضَّرَبَاتِ ٱلَّتِي ضَرَبُوهُ إِيَّاهَا فِي ٱلرَّامَةِ عِنْدَ مُحَارَبَتِهِ حَزَائِيلَ مَلِكَ أَرَامَ. وَنَزَلَ عَزَرْيَا بْنُ يَهُورَامَ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا لِعِيَادَةِ يَهُورَامَ بْنِ أَخْآبَ فِي يَزْرَعِيلَ لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ مَرِيضًا. ٦ 6
and he returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he'd received in Ramah fighting against Hazael king of Aram. Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went to Jezreel to visit Joram, son of Ahab, because Joram was wounded.
فَمِنْ قِبَلِ ٱللهِ كَانَ هَلَاكُ أَخَزْيَا بِمَجِيئِهِ إِلَى يُورَامَ. فَإِنَّهُ حِينَ جَاءَ خَرَجَ مَعَ يَهُورَامَ إِلَى يَاهُوَ بْنِ نِمْشِي ٱلَّذِي مَسَحَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِقَطْعِ بَيْتِ أَخْآبَ. ٧ 7
Azariah's downfall came from God when he went to see Joram. When Azariah got there, he went with Joram to meet Jehu, son of Nimri. The Lord had anointed Jehu to destroy Ahab and his family.
وَإِذْ كَانَ يَاهُو يَقْضِي عَلَى بَيْتِ أَخْآبَ وَجَدَ رُؤَسَاءَ يَهُوذَا وَبَنِي إِخْوَةِ أَخَزْيَا ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَخْدِمُونَ أَخَزْيَا فَقَتَلَهُمْ. ٨ 8
While Jehu was carrying out judgment on the family of Ahab, he came across the leaders of Judah and Azariah's relatives who were assisting Ahaziah, and he killed them.
وَطَلَبَ أَخَزْيَا فَأَمْسَكُوهُ وَهُوَ مُخْتَبِئٌ فِي ٱلسَّامِرَةِ، وَأَتَوْا بِهِ إِلَى يَاهُو وَقَتَلُوهُ وَدَفَنُوهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا: «إِنَّهُ ٱبْنُ يَهُوشَافَاطَ ٱلَّذِي طَلَبَ ٱلرَّبَّ بِكُلِّ قَلْبِهِ». فَلَمْ يَكُنْ لِبَيْتِ أَخَزْيَا مَنْ يَقْوَى عَلَى ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ. ٩ 9
Then Jehu went looking for Ahaziah. His men found him in Samaria and captured him, and took him to Jehu where they killed him. They buried him, for they said, “He is the grandson of Jehoshaphat, who was completely committed to following the Lord.” There was no one left from Ahaziah's family to rule the kingdom.
وَلَمَّا رَأَتْ عَثَلْيَا أُمُّ أَخَزْيَا أَنَّ ٱبْنَهَا قَدْ مَاتَ، قَامَتْ وَأَبَادَتْ جَمِيعَ ٱلنَّسْلِ ٱلْمَلِكِيِّ مِنْ بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا. ١٠ 10
When Athaliah Ahaziah's mother found out that her son was dead, she proceeded to kill all who remained of the royal family of Judah.
أَمَّا يَهُوشَبْعَةُ بِنْتُ ٱلْمَلِكِ فَأَخَذَتْ يُوآشَ بْنَ أَخَزْيَا وَسَرَقَتْهُ مِنْ وَسَطِ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا، وَجَعَلَتْهُ هُوَ وَمُرْضِعَتَهُ فِي مُخْدَعِ ٱلسَّرِيرِ، وَخَبَّأَتْهُ يَهُوشَبْعَةُ بِنْتُ ٱلْمَلِكِ يَهُورَامَ ٱمْرَأَةُ يَهُويَادَاعَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ، لِأَنَّهَا كَانَتْ أُخْتَ أَخَزْيَا، مِنْ وَجْهِ عَثَلْيَا فَلَمْ تَقْتُلْهُ. ١١ 11
But Jehoshabeath, daughter of King Jehoram, grabbed Joash, son of Ahaziah, and took him from the sons of the king who were about to be killed, and she placed him and his nurse in a bedroom. Because Jehoshabeath, the daughter of King Jehoram and the wife of Jehoiada the priest, was Ahaziah's sister, she hid Joash from Athaliah so she couldn't kill him.
وَكَانَ مَعَهُمْ فِي بَيْتِ ٱللهِ مُخْتَبِئًا سِتَّ سِنِينٍ وَعَثَلْيَا مَالِكَةٌ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. ١٢ 12
And they kept Joash hidden with them in God's Temple for six years while Athaliah ruled the country.
