< 2 Chronicles 22 >

1 The inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his place; for the band of men who came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.
Och de i Jerusalem gjorde till Konung Ahasia hans yngsta son, i hans stad; förty krigsfolket, som utaf de Araber med här kommo, hade de första alla ihjälslagit; derföre vardt Ahasia Konung, Jorams son, Juda Konungs.
2 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri.
Tu och fyratio år gammal var Ahasia, då han Konung vardt, och regerade ett år i Jerusalem. Hans moder het Athalja, Amri dotter.
3 He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab; for his mother was his counselor to do wickedly.
Han vandrade ock uti Achabs hus vägar; ty hans moder höll honom dertill, att han skulle göra det ondt var.
4 He did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, as did the house of Ahab; for they were his counselors after the death of his father, to his destruction.
Derföre gjorde han det Herranom icke behagade, såsom Achabs hus; ty de voro hans rådgifvare efter hans faders död, så att de förderfvade honom.
5 He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth Gilead: and the Arameans wounded Joram.
Och han vandrade efter deras råd, och han drog bort med Joram, Achabs son, Israels Konung, i strid, till Ramoth i Gilead, emot Hasael, Konungen i Syrien. Men de i Rama slogo Joram;
6 He returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which they had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Aram. Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
Så att han omvände, till att låta läka sig i Jisreel; förty han hade sår, som han fått hade i Rama, då han stridde med Hasael, Konungen i Syrien. Och Asaria, Jorams son, Juda Konungs, for ned till att bese Joram, Achabs son, i Jisreel, som krank låg.
7 Now the destruction of Ahaziah was of God, in that he went to Joram: for when he had come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom Jehovah had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.
Ty den ofärden var så af Gudi Ahasia tillfogad, att han skulle komma till Joram, och så med Joram utdraga emot Jehu, Nimsi son, hvilken Herren smort hade, till att utrota Achabs hus.
8 It happened, when Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Ahab, that he found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brothers of Ahaziah, ministering to Ahaziah, and killed them.
Då nu Jehu höll uppå att straffa Achabs hus, fann han några öfverstar af Juda, och Ahasia bröders barn, som tjente, och drap dem.
9 He sought Ahaziah, and they caught him (now he was hiding in Samaria), and they brought him to Jehu, and killed him; and they buried him, for they said, "He is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Jehovah with all his heart." The house of Ahaziah had no power to hold the kingdom.
Och han sökte Ahasia, och fick honom fatt, der han sig undstungit hade i Samarien; och han vardt hafder fram för Jehu. Han drap honom, och man begrof honom; ty de sade: Han är Josaphats son, hvilken efter Herran sökte af allt hjerta. Och var sedan ingen qvar utaf Ahasia huse, som Konung kunde varda.
10 Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the royal family of the house of Judah.
Då nu Athalja, Ahasia moder, såg att hennes son död var, stod hon upp, och förgjorde all Konungslig säd i Juda hus.
11 But Jehosheba, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and secretly took him away from among the king's sons who were slain, and put him and his nurse in the bedroom. So Jehosheba, 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 did not kill him.
Men Josabeath, Konungens dotter, tog Johas, Ahasia son, och stal honom undan ibland Konungsbarnen, som dräpne vordo, och lät honom med hans ammo uti en sängakammar. Alltså fördolde honom för Athalja Josabeath, Konung Jorams dotter, Prestens Jojada hustru; ty hon var Ahasia syster; att han icke dräpen vardt.
12 He was with them hidden in God's house six years: and Athaliah reigned over the land.
Och han var med dem i Guds hus fördold i sex år, medan Athalja regerade i landena.
