Ii Paralipomenon 22
1 Constituerunt autem habitatores Ierusalem Ochoziam filium eius minimum, regem pro eo: omnes enim maiores natu, qui ante eum fuerant, interfecerant latrones Arabum, qui irruerant in castra: regnavitque Ochozias filius Ioram regis Iuda.
And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead; for the band of men that came in the camp with the Arabians had slain all the elder ones. And Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.
2 Quadraginta duorum annorum erat Ochozias cum regnare cœpisset, et uno anno regnavit in Ierusalem, et nomen matris eius Athalia filia Amri.
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, daughter of Omri.
3 Sed et ipse ingressus est per vias domus Achab: mater enim eius impulit eum ut impie ageret.
He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab; for his mother was his counsellor to do wickedly.
4 Fecit igitur malum in conspectu Domini, sicut domus Achab: ipsi enim fuerunt ei consiliarii post mortem patris sui, in interitum eius.
And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah like the house of Ahab; for they were his counsellors after the death of his father, to his destruction.
5 Ambulavitque in consiliis eorum. Et perrexit cum Ioram filio Achab rege Israel, in bellum contra Hazael regem Syriæ in Ramoth Galaad: vulneraveruntque Syri Ioram.
He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab, king of Israel, to the war against Hazael the king of Syria at Ramoth-Gilead; and the Syrians wounded Joram.
6 Qui reversus est ut curaretur in Iezrahel: multas enim plagas acceperat in supradicto certamine. Igitur Ochozias filius Ioram rex Iuda, descendit ut inviseret Ioram filium Achab in Iezrahel ægrotantem.
And he returned to be healed in Jizreel because of the wounds that were given him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jizreel; for he was sick.
7 Voluntatis quippe fuit Dei adversus Ochoziam, ut veniret ad Ioram: et cum venisset, et egrederetur cum eo adversum Iehu filium Namsi, quem unxit Dominus ut deleret domum Achab.
But his coming to Joram was from God the complete ruin of Ahaziah. And 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.
8 Cum ergo everteret Iehu domum Achab, invenit principes Iuda, et filios fratrum Ochoziæ, qui ministrabant ei, et interfecit illos.
And it came to pass when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, that he found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, that attended upon Ahaziah, and he slew them.
9 Ipsum quoque perquirens Ochoziam, comprehendit latitantem in Samaria: adductumque ad se, occidit, et sepelierunt eum: eo quod esset filius Iosaphat, qui quæsierat Dominum in toto corde suo. Nec erat ultra spes aliqua ut de stirpe quis regnaret Ochoziæ.
And he sought Ahaziah; and they caught him (for he had hid himself in Samaria), and brought him to Jehu, and slew him; and they buried him, for they said, He is a son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Jehovah with all his heart. And in the house of Ahaziah there was no one who was able to [hold] the kingdom.
10 Siquidem Athalia mater eius videns quod mortuus esset filius suus, surrexit, et interfecit omnem stirpem regiam domus Ioram.
And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she rose up and exterminated all the royal seed of the house of Judah.
11 Porro Iosabeth filia regis tulit Ioas filium Ochoziæ, et furata est eum de medio filiorum regis, cum interficerentur: absconditque eum cum nutrice sua in cubiculo lectulorum: Iosabeth autem, quæ absconderat eum, erat filia regis Ioram, uxor Ioiadæ pontificis, soror Ochoziæ, et idcirco Athalia non interfecit eum.
But Jehoshabeath the daughter of the king took Joash the son of Ahaziah and stole him from among the king's sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in the bedchamber. 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 did not slay him;
12 Fuit ergo cum eis in domo Dei absconditus sex annis, quibus regnavit Athalia super terram.
and he was with them hid in the house of God six years. And Athaliah reigned over the land.
