22 Síðan tóku Jerúsalembúar Ahasía, yngsta son hans, til konungs eftir hann, því að ræningjaflokkurinn, er komið hafði til herbúðanna ásamt Aröbunum, hafði drepið alla þá, er eldri voru, og þannig tók Ahasía ríki, sonur Jórams Júdakonungs.
2 Ahasía var fjörutíu og tveggja ára gamall, þá er hann varð konungur, og eitt ár ríkti hann í Jerúsalem. Móðir hans hét Atalía, sonardóttir Omrí.
3 Hann fetaði líka í fótspor Akabsættar, því að móðir hans fékk hann til óguðlegs athæfis með ráðum sínum.
4 Og hann gjörði það, sem illt var í augum Drottins, eins og ættmenn Akabs, því að þeir voru ráðgjafar hans eftir dauða föður hans, sjálfum honum til tjóns.
5 Að þeirra ráðum var það og, að hann fór herför með Jóram Akabssyni Ísraelskonungi í móti Hasael Sýrlandskonungi, til Ramót í Gíleað, en Sýrlendingar særðu Jóram.
6 Þá sneri hann aftur til þess að láta græða sár sín í Jesreel, þau er hann hafði fengið við Rama, þá er hann barðist við Hasael Sýrlandskonung. En Ahasía Jóramsson Júdakonungur fór ofan til Jesreel til þess að vitja um Jóram Akabsson, af því að hann lá sjúkur.
7 En það var að Guðs tilstilli, til hrakfara fyrir Ahasía, að hann fór til Jórams. Þegar hann var þangað kominn, fór hann með Jóram á móti Jehú Nimsísyni, er Drottinn hafði smyrja látið til þess að afmá Akabs ætt.
8 Og er Jehú háði dóm yfir Akabsætt, hitti hann hershöfðingja Júdamanna og bræðrasonu Ahasía, er þjónuðu Ahasía, og lét drepa þá.
9 Síðan lét hann leita Ahasía, og var hann handtekinn, en hann hafði falið sig í Samaríu. Var hann færður Jehú og drepinn. En síðan jörðuðu menn hann, því að þeir sögðu: "Hann er afkomandi Jósafats, þess er leitaði Drottins af öllu hjarta sínu." En enginn var sá af ætt Ahasía, er fær væri um að taka við konungdómi.
10 Þegar Atalía móðir Ahasía sá, að sonur hennar var dauður, fór hún til og lét drepa alla konungsætt Júda.
11 Þá tók Jósabat, dóttir Jórams konungs, Jóas Ahasíason á laun úr hóp konungssonanna, er deyða átti, og fól hann og fóstru hans í svefnherberginu. Þannig fól Jósabat, dóttir Jórams konungs, kona Jójada prests, hann _ því að hún var systir Ahasía _ fyrir Atalíu, svo að hún lét eigi drepa hann.
12 Og hann var hjá þeim á laun sex ár í musteri Guðs, meðan Atalía ríkti yfir landinu.

Ahaziah King of Judah(A)(B)
22 The people(C) of Jerusalem(D) made Ahaziah, Jehoram’s youngest son, king in his place, since the raiders,(E) who came with the Arabs into the camp, had killed all the older sons. So Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah began to reign.
2 Ahaziah was twenty-two[a] years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem one year. His mother’s name was Athaliah, a granddaughter of Omri.
3 He too followed(F) the ways of the house of Ahab,(G) for his mother encouraged him to act wickedly. 4 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as the house of Ahab had done, for after his father’s death they became his advisers, to his undoing. 5 He also followed their counsel when he went with Joram[b] son of Ahab king of Israel to wage war against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth Gilead.(H) The Arameans wounded Joram; 6 so he returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds they had inflicted on him at Ramoth[c] in his battle with Hazael(I) king of Aram.
Then Ahaziah[d] son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to Jezreel to see Joram son of Ahab because he had been wounded.
7 Through Ahaziah’s(J) visit to Joram, God brought about Ahaziah’s downfall. When Ahaziah arrived, he went out with Joram to meet Jehu son of Nimshi, whom the Lord had anointed to destroy the house of Ahab. 8 While Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Ahab,(K) he found the officials of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah’s relatives, who had been attending Ahaziah, and he killed them. 9 He then went in search of Ahaziah, and his men captured him while he was hiding(L) in Samaria. He was brought to Jehu and put to death. They buried him, for they said, “He was a son of Jehoshaphat, who sought(M) the Lord with all his heart.” So there was no one in the house of Ahaziah powerful enough to retain the kingdom.
Athaliah and Joash(N)
10 When Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she proceeded to destroy the whole royal family of the house of Judah. 11 But Jehosheba,[e] the daughter of King Jehoram, took Joash son of Ahaziah and stole him away from among the royal princes who were about to be murdered and put him and his nurse in a bedroom. Because Jehosheba,[f] the daughter of King Jehoram and wife of the priest Jehoiada, was Ahaziah’s sister, she hid the child from Athaliah so she could not kill him. 12 He remained hidden with them at the temple of God for six years while Athaliah ruled the land.
