2 Chronicles 22

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	BIBBIA VOLGARE
1 Then the inhabitants of Jerusalem appointed his youngest son, Ahaziah, as king in his place. For the robbers of the Arabians, who had fallen upon the camp, had put to death all those who were greater by birth before him. And so Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, reigned as king of Judah.	1 Gli abitatori di Ierusalem fecero re per lui Ocozia suo figliuolo; però che tutti quelli, ch' erano innanzi a lui, aveano morti i ladroncelli degli Arabi, li quali avevano assalite le castella; e regnoe Ocozia figliuolo di Ioram re di Giuda.
2 Ahaziah was forty-two years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for one year in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri.	2 E quando Ocozia cominciò a regnare, era di XLII anni; e uno regnò in Ierusalem. Il nome della madre sua fu Atalia figliuola di Amri.
3 But he too went forth in the ways of the house of Ahab. For his mother impelled him to act impiously.	3 E anco egli entrò per la via della casa d'Acab; e la madre sua lo indusse, ch' egli facesse empie cose.
4 And so he did evil in the sight of the Lord, just as the house of Ahab did. For after the death of his father, they were counselors to him, to his destruction.	4 Onde egli fece male nel cospetto di Dio, sì come la casa di Acab; ed egli furono suoi consiglieri, dopo la morte del suo padre, nella morte sua.
5 And he walked in their counsels. And he went with Joram, the son of Ahab, the king of Israel, to war against Hazael, the king of Syria, at Ramoth Gilead. And the Syrians wounded Joram.	5 E andò per lo consiglio loro; e andò con Ioram figliuolo di Acab alla battaglia contra Azael re di Siria in Ramot di Galaad; e i Siri ferirono Ioram.
6 And he returned, so that he might be cured at Jezreel. For he had received many wounds in the above-stated battle. And so Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, the king of Judah, descended, so that he might visit Joram, the son of Ahab, at Jezreel, while he was ill.	6 Ed egli ritornò in Iezrael a farsi medicare; però ch' avea ricevuto molte ferite nella detta battaglia. Ocozia figliuolo di Ioram re di Giuda andò in Iezrael a vedere Ioram, figliuolo di Acab, infermo.
7 Indeed, it was the will of God against Ahaziah that he would go to Joram, and when he had gone, that he also would go out with him against Jehu, the son of Nimshi, whom the Lord had anointed to destroy the house of Ahab.	7 E fu di volontà di Dio contro Ocozia, ch' egli andasse a Ioram; e venuto, è uscito con esso lui contro a Ieu figliuolo di Namsi, il quale avea unto Iddio acciò che disertasse la casa di Acab.
8 Therefore, when Jehu was overthrowing the house of Ahab, he found the leaders of Judah, with the sons of the brothers of Ahaziah, who were ministering to him, and he put them to death.	8 E disfacendo Ieu la casa di Acab, trovò i principi di Giuda, e i figliuoli de' fratelli d' Ocozia, i quali gli serviano, e uccisegli.
9 Also, while he himself was seeking Ahaziah, he found him to be hiding in Samaria. And having been led to him, he killed him. And they buried him, because he was the son of Jehoshaphat, who had sought the Lord with all his heart. But there was no longer any hope that someone from the stock of Ahaziah would reign.	9 E cercando per Ocozia, preselo, essendo nascosto in Samaria; e menato a lui, egli l' uccise; e seppellironlo, però ch' era figliuolo di Iosafat, il quale avea seguitato Iddio con tutto il cuore; e non era più speranza veruna, che della stirpe di Ocozia fosse chi potesse regnare.
10 For indeed, his mother, Athaliah, seeing that her son had died, rose up and killed the entire royal stock of the house of Jehoram.	10 E veggendo Atalia sua madre, che era morto il suo figliuolo, levossi e uccise tutta la stirpe regale della casa di Ioram.
11 But Jehosheba, the daughter of the king, took Joash, the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from the midst the king’s sons when they were being slain. And she hid him with his nurse in a bedroom. Now Jehosheba, the one who had hidden him, was the daughter of king Jehoram, and the wife of the high priest Jehoiada, and the sister of Ahaziah. And because of this, Athaliah did not kill him.	11 Ma Iosabet, figliuola del re, tolse Ioas figliuolo di Ocozia, e furollo del mezzo de' figliuoli del re, quando si uccideano; e nascose lui con la sua baila in una cameretta de' letti; e questa Iosabet, la quale avealo nascoso, era figliuola di re Ioram, moglie di Ioiada pontefice, sorella di Ocozia; e però Atalia non lo uccise.
12 Therefore, he was with them, hidden in the house of God, for six years, while Athaliah reigned over the land.	12 E fu con esso loro nascoso nella casa di Dio sei anni, nei quali Atalia regnoe sopra la terra.
