2 Chronicles 22
1 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.
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.
2 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].
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.
3 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.
Tudi on je hodil po poteh Ahábove hiše, kajti njegova mati je bila njegova svetovalka, da počne zlobno.
4 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.
Zaradi česar je počel zlo v Gospodovih očeh, kakor Ahábova hiša, kajti bili so njegovi svetovalci po smrti njegovega očeta, njemu v uničenje.
5 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.
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.
6 Then King Ahaziah went down to Jezreel [city] to see Joram, the son of [King] Ahab, because he had been wounded.
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.
7 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.
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.
8 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.
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.
9 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.
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.
10 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.
Toda ko je Ahazjájeva mati Ataljá videla, da je bil njen sin mrtev, je vstala in uničila vse kraljeve potomce Judove hiše.
11 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.
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.
12 He remained hidden there for six years while Athaliah ruled [Judah].
Šest let je bil z njimi skrit v Božji hiši, Ataljá pa je kraljevala nad deželo.
