2 Chronicles 22

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Then the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, his youngest son, king in his stead, since all the older sons had been slain by the band that had come into the fort with the Arabs. Thus Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, reigned as the king of Judah.	1 وملك سكان اورشليم اخزيا ابنه الاصغر عوضا عنه لان جميع الاولين قتلهم الغزاة الذين جاءوا مع العرب الى المحلّة. فملك اخزيا بن يهورام ملك يهوذا
2 He was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother was named Athaliah, daughter of Omri.	2 كان اخزيا ابن اثنتين واربعين سنة حين ملك وملك سنة واحدة في اورشليم واسم امه عثليا بنت عمري.
3 He, too, followed the ways of the house of Ahab, because his mother counseled him to act sinfully.	3 وهو ايضا سلك في طرق بيت اخآب لان امه كانت تشير عليه بفعل الشر.
4 To his own destruction, he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as did the house of Ahab, since they were his counselors after the death of his father.	4 فعمل الشر في عيني الرب مثل بيت اخآب لانهم كانوا له مشيرين بعد وفاة ابيه لابادته.
5 He was also following their counsel when he accompanied Jehoram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, to battle against Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead. There Jehoram was wounded by the Arameans.	5 فسلك بمشورتهم وذهب مع يهورام بن اخآب ملك اسرائيل لمحاربة حزائيل ملك ارام في راموت جلعاد. وضرب الاراميون يورام
6 He returned to Jezreel to be healed of the wounds he had received at Rama in his battle against Hazael, king of Aram. Because of this illness, Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to visit Jehoram, son of Ahab, in Jezreel.	6 فرجع ليبرأ في يزرعيل بسبب الضربات التي ضربوه اياها في الرامة عند محاربته حزائيل ملك ارام. ونزل عزريا بن يهورام ملك يهوذا لعيادة يهورام بن اخآب في يزرعيل لانه كان مريضا.
7 Now it was willed by God for Ahaziah's downfall that he should join Jehoram, for after his arrival he rode out with Jehoram to Jehu, son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to cut down the house of Ahab.	7 فمن قبل الله كان هلاك اخزيا بمجيئه الى يورام. فانه حين جاء خرج مع يهورام الى ياهو بن نمشي الذي مسحه الرب لقطع بيت اخآب.
8 While Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Ahab, he also encountered the princes of Judah and the nephews of Ahaziah who were his attendants, and he slew them.	8 واذ كان ياهو يقضي على بيت اخآب وجد رؤساء يهوذا وبني اخوة اخزيا اللذن كانوا يخدمون اخزيا فقتلهم.
9 Then he looked for Ahaziah himself. They caught him where he was hiding in Samaria and brought him to Jehu, who put him to death. They buried him, for they said, "He was the grandson of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with his whole heart." There remained in Ahaziah's house no one powerful enough to wield the kingship.	9 وطلب اخزيا فامسكوه وهو مختبئ في السامرة وأتوا به الى ياهو وقتلوه ودفنوه لانهم قالوا انه ابن يهوشافاط الذي طلب الرب بكل قلبه. فلم يكن لبيت اخزيا من يقوى على المملكة
10 When Athaliah, mother of Ahaziah, learned that her son was dead, she proceeded to kill off all the royal offspring of the house of Judah.	10 ولما رأت عثليا ام اخزيا ان ابنها قد مات قامت وابادت جميع النسل الملكي من بيت يهوذا.
11 But Jehosheba, a royal princess, secretly took Ahaziah's son Joash from among the king's sons who were about to be slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedroom. In this way Jehosheba, who was the daughter of King Jehoram, a sister of Ahaziah, and wife of Jehoiada the priest, hid the child from Athaliah's sight, so that she did not put him to death.	11 اما يهوشبعه بنت الملك فاخذت يواش بن اخزيا وسرقته من وسط بني الملك الذين قتلوا وجعلته هو ومرضعته في مخدع السرير وخبأته يهوشبعه بنت الملك يهورام امرأة يهوياداع الكاهن. لانها كانت اخت اخزيا. من وجه عثليا فلم تقتله.
12 For six years he remained hidden with them in the house of God, while Athaliah ruled over the land.	12 وكان معهم في بيت الله مختبئا ست سنين وعثليا مالكة على الارض
