2 Chronicles 22
22:1And the ones dwelling in Jerusalem gave reign to Ahaziah his son, the youngest, instead of him; for all the elder sons were killed by the ones coming upon them -- the band of robbers, the Arabians. And Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.
22:2Ahaziah was a son being forty and two years old in his reigning, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Athaliah daughter of Omri.
22:3And also he went in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother was his counselor to sin.
22:4And he did the wicked thing in the eyes of the lord, as the house of Ahab; for they were to him counselors after the dying of his father to utterly destroy him.
22:5And he went by their counsels. And he went with Jehoram son of Ahab king of Israel for war against Hazael king of Syria in Ramoth Gilead. And the bowmen struck Jehoram.
22:6And Jehoram returned to be treated medically in Jezreel from the wounds which the Syrians struck him in Ramoth, in his warring against Hazael king of Syria. And Ahaziah son of Jehoram, king of Judah went down to see Jehoram son of Ahab in Jezreel, for he was infirm.
22:7And by God came the final event of Ahaziah in his coming to Jehoram. And in his coming, Jehoram went forth with him against Jehu son of Nimshi, the anointed of the lord, whom the lord anointed him to utterly destroy the house of Ahab.
22:8And it came to pass in Jehu taking vengeance on the house of Ahab, that he found the rulers of Judah, and the brothers of Ahaziah, the ones officiating to Ahaziah, and he killed them.
22:9And Jehu told them to seek Ahaziah. And they overtook him in his being treated medically in Samaria, and they led him to Jehu, and he killed him. And they entombed him, for they said, He is a son of Jehoshaphat who sought the lord with his entire heart. And there was not anyone in the house of Ahaziah prevailing with power over the kingdom.
22:10And Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son died, and she rose up and destroyed all the seed of the kingdom in the house of Judah.
22:11But Jehoshabeath the daughter of the king took Joash son of Ahaziah, and stole him from the midst of the sons of the king, of the ones being put to death. And she put him and his nourishment in the storeroom of the beds. And the daughter of king Jehoram hid him, Jehoshabeath the sister of Ahaziah the wife of Jehoiada the priest. And she hid him from the face of Athaliah, and she did not kill him.
22:12And he was being hid with her in the house of God six years. And Athaliah reigned over the land.
