2 Istwa 22
1 Yon bann arab te anvayi kan lame a, yo te touye tout gran pitit gason Joram yo. Sèl Okozyas, dènye pitit gason l' lan, te rete. Se konsa pèp Jerizalèm lan fè Okozyas wa nan plas papa l'.
The inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his place, because the band of men who came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the oldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.
2 Okozyas te gen venndezan lè li moute wa. Li gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm pandan yon sèl lanne. Manman l' te rele Atali, pitit fi Akab, pitit pitit fi Omri.
Ahaziah was forty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Athaliah the daughter of Omri.
3 Okozyas tou te mache pye pou pye dèyè moun fanmi Akab yo, paske manman l' t'ap ba li move konsèy.
He also walked in the ways of Ahab’s house, because his mother was his counsellor in acting wickedly.
4 Li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a paske, apre lanmò papa l', se lòt moun fanmi Akab yo ki vin sèvi tankou konseye wa a. Se sa ki pèdi l' nèt.
He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, as did Ahab’s house, for they were his counsellors after the death of his father, to his destruction.
5 Li koute konsèy yo, li mete tèt ansanm ak Joram, pitit pitit Akab, wa peyi Izrayèl la, pou al atake Azayèl, wa peyi Siri a. Lame yo kontre yonn ak lòt lavil Ramòt nan peyi Galarad. Moun Siri yo blese Joram.
He also followed 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 wounded Joram.
6 Joram tounen lavil Jizreyèl pou l' te refè anba blese li te pran nan batay li t'ap mennen kont Azayèl, wa peyi Siri a, lavil Ramòt. Lè sa a, Okozyas moute lavil Jizreyèl pou l' vizite Joram, pitit pitit Akab, paske Joram te malad.
He returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which they had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. Azariah the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
7 Se Bondye ki te fè Okozyas al rann Joram vizit sa a pou l' te ka kraze l'. Rive Okozyas rive, li pati ansanm ak Joram al kontre Jeou, pitit gason Nimchi a, yon moun Bondye te chwazi pou disparèt tout fanmi Akab la.
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 the LORD had anointed to cut off Ahab’s house.
8 Se konsa, pandan Jeou t'ap regle ak fanmi Akab la, li kontre kèk chèf peyi Jida ak ti fanmi wa Okozyas yo ki t'ap sèvi nan lame Okozyas la. Li touye tout.
When Jehu was executing judgement on Ahab’s house, he found the princes of Judah and the sons of the brothers of Ahaziah serving Ahaziah, and killed them.
9 Apre sa, li mande pou yo chache Okozyas ki te kache nan peyi Samari a. Yo jwenn li, yo mennen l' bay Jeou ki fè yo touye l'. Apre sa, yo antere kadav li, paske yo t'ap di se pitit pitit Jozafa ki te fè sa l' kapab pou l' sèvi Seyè a. Se konsa pa t' rete pesonn nan fanmi Okozyas la ki te ka pran pouvwa a pou gouvènen.
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 the LORD with all his heart.” The house of Ahaziah had no power to hold the kingdom.
10 Lè Atali, manman Okozyas, vin konnen yo te touye pitit li a, li bay lòd pou yo touye tout rès fanmi wa peyi Jida yo.
Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the royal offspring of the house of Judah.
11 Men, lè yo t'ap touye pitit wa yo, Jozabèt, pitit fi wa Joram lan, pran Joas, pitit gason Okozyas la, li sere l'. Li kache l' ansanm ak moun ki te sèvi l' nouris la nan yon chanm kote moun dòmi nan Tanp lan. Se konsa, Jozabèt, pitit fi wa Joram lan, sè menm papa ak Okozyas, epi ki te madanm Jeojada, prèt la, te sere Joas san Atali pa konn sa, kifè li pa t' mouri tou.
But Jehoshabeath, the king’s daughter, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stealthily rescued him from amongst the king’s sons who were slain, and put him and his nurse in the bedroom. 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 didn’t kill him.
12 Pandan sizan Joas te rete kache nan Tanp lan ansanm ak moun ki te sèvi l' nouris la. Atali menm t'ap gouvènen peyi a.
He was with them hidden in God’s house six years while Athaliah reigned over the land.
