Chapter 22

1 And the inhabitants3427 of Jerusalem3389 made Ahaziah274 his youngest6996 son1121 king4427 in his stead:8478 for the band1416 of men that came935 with the Arabians6163 to the camp4264 had slain2026 all3605 the oldest.7223 So Ahaziah274 the son1121 of Jehoram3088 king4428 of Judah3063 reigned.4427

2 Forty705 and two8147 years8141 old1121 was Ahaziah274 when he began to reign,4427 and he reigned4427 one259 year8141 in Jerusalem.3389 His mother's517 name8034 also was Athaliah6271 the daughter1323 of Omri.6018

3 He also1571 walked1980 in the ways1870 of the house1004 of Ahab:256 for his mother517 was his counselor3289 to do wickedly.7561

4 Why he did6213 evil7451 in the sight5869 of the LORD3068 like the house1004 of Ahab:256 for they were his counsellors3289 after310 the death4194 of his father25 to his destruction.4889

5 He walked1980 also1571 after their counsel,6098 and went3212 with Jehoram3088 the son1121 of Ahab256 king4428 of Israel3478 to war4421 against5921 Hazael2371 king4428 of Syria758 at Ramothgilead:7433 and the Syrians761 smote5221 Joram.3141

6 And he returned7725 to be healed7495 in Jezreel3157 because3588 of the wounds4347 which834 were given5221 him at Ramah,7414 when he fought3898 with Hazael2371 king4428 of Syria.758 And Azariah5838 the son1121 of Jehoram3088 king4428 of Judah3063 went3381 down3381 to see7200 Jehoram3088 the son1121 of Ahab256 at Jezreel,3157 because3588 he was sick.2470

7 And the destruction8395 of Ahaziah274 was of God430 by coming935 to Joram:3141 for when he was come,935 he went3318 out with Jehoram3088 against413 Jehu3058 the son1121 of Nimshi,5250 whom834 the LORD3068 had anointed4886 to cut3772 off the house1004 of Ahab.256

8 And it came1961 to pass, that, when Jehu3058 was executing judgment8199 on the house1004 of Ahab,256 and found4672 the princes8269 of Judah,3063 and the sons1121 of the brothers251 of Ahaziah,274 that ministered8334 to Ahaziah,274 he slew2026 them.

9 And he sought1245 Ahaziah:274 and they caught3920 him, (for he was hid2244 in Samaria,8111) and brought935 him to Jehu:3058 and when they had slain4191 him, they buried6912 him: Because,3588 said559 they, he is the son1121 of Jehoshaphat,3092 who834 sought1875 the LORD3068 with all3605 his heart.3824 So the house1004 of Ahaziah274 had no369 power3581 to keep6113 still the kingdom.4467

10 But when Athaliah6271 the mother517 of Ahaziah274 saw7200 that her son1121 was dead,4191 she arose6965 and destroyed1696 all3605 the seed2233 royal4467 of the house1004 of Judah.3063

11 But Jehoshabeath,3090 the daughter of the king,4428 took3947 Joash3101 the son1121 of Ahaziah,274 and stole1589 him from among8432 the king's4428 sons1121 that were slain,4191 and put5414 him and his nurse3243 in a bedchamber.2315 4296 So Jehoshabeath,3090 the daughter1323 of king4428 Jehoram,3088 the wife802 of Jehoiada3111 the priest,3548 (for she was the sister269 of Ahaziah,274) hid5641 him from Athaliah,6271 so that she slew4191 him not.

12 And he was with them hid2244 in the house1004 of God430 six8337 years:8141 and Athaliah6271 reigned4427 over5921 the land.776

Chapter 22

1 THEN the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead; for raiders had come to the camp and slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.

2 Twenty-two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Athaliah the daughter of Omri.

3 And he walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for he was the son of Ahab's sister.

4 He also committed many sins and did evil in the sight of the LORD like the house of Ahab; for they were his counsellors after the death of his father to his destruction,

5 Because he walked after their counsel, and went with Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Aram at Ramath-gilead; and the Arameans smote Joram.

6 And he returned to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds which he had received at Ramtha, when he fought with Hazael king of Aram. And Ahaziah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel because he was sick.

7 And the destruction of Ahaziah was determined by God, who decreed that he should go to Joram; for when he was come, he went out with Joram to meet Jehu the son of Jamshi, whom the LORD had anointed to destroy the house of Ahab.

8 And when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, he found the princes of Judah and the sons of the brothers of Ahaziah who ministered to Ahaziah and slew them.

9 And he sought Ahaziah and he caught him (for he was hiding in Samaria) and brought him to Jehu; and when they had slain him, they buried him; for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no one with power to rule over the kingdom.

10 Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the king's sons of the house of Judah.

11 But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, stole Joash the son of Ahaziah from among the king's sons who were about to be slain, and hid him and his nurse in her bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of King Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiadah the priest (for she was the sister of Ahaziah), hid him from Athaliah so that she did not slay him.

12 And he was hid with her in the house of the LORD six Years; and Athaliah reigned over the land.

1 And the inhabitants3427 of Jerusalem3389 made Ahaziah274 his youngest6996 son1121 king4427 in his stead:8478 for the band1416 of men that came935 with the Arabians6163 to the camp4264 had slain2026 all3605 the oldest.7223 So Ahaziah274 the son1121 of Jehoram3088 king4428 of Judah3063 reigned.4427

1 THEN the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead; for raiders had come to the camp and slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.

2 Forty705 and two8147 years8141 old1121 was Ahaziah274 when he began to reign,4427 and he reigned4427 one259 year8141 in Jerusalem.3389 His mother's517 name8034 also was Athaliah6271 the daughter1323 of Omri.6018

2 Twenty-two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Athaliah the daughter of Omri.

3 He also1571 walked1980 in the ways1870 of the house1004 of Ahab:256 for his mother517 was his counselor3289 to do wickedly.7561

3 And he walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for he was the son of Ahab's sister.

4 Why he did6213 evil7451 in the sight5869 of the LORD3068 like the house1004 of Ahab:256 for they were his counsellors3289 after310 the death4194 of his father25 to his destruction.4889

4 He also committed many sins and did evil in the sight of the LORD like the house of Ahab; for they were his counsellors after the death of his father to his destruction,

5 He walked1980 also1571 after their counsel,6098 and went3212 with Jehoram3088 the son1121 of Ahab256 king4428 of Israel3478 to war4421 against5921 Hazael2371 king4428 of Syria758 at Ramothgilead:7433 and the Syrians761 smote5221 Joram.3141

5 Because he walked after their counsel, and went with Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Aram at Ramath-gilead; and the Arameans smote Joram.

6 And he returned7725 to be healed7495 in Jezreel3157 because3588 of the wounds4347 which834 were given5221 him at Ramah,7414 when he fought3898 with Hazael2371 king4428 of Syria.758 And Azariah5838 the son1121 of Jehoram3088 king4428 of Judah3063 went3381 down3381 to see7200 Jehoram3088 the son1121 of Ahab256 at Jezreel,3157 because3588 he was sick.2470

6 And he returned to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds which he had received at Ramtha, when he fought with Hazael king of Aram. And Ahaziah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel because he was sick.

7 And the destruction8395 of Ahaziah274 was of God430 by coming935 to Joram:3141 for when he was come,935 he went3318 out with Jehoram3088 against413 Jehu3058 the son1121 of Nimshi,5250 whom834 the LORD3068 had anointed4886 to cut3772 off the house1004 of Ahab.256

7 And the destruction of Ahaziah was determined by God, who decreed that he should go to Joram; for when he was come, he went out with Joram to meet Jehu the son of Jamshi, whom the LORD had anointed to destroy the house of Ahab.

8 And it came1961 to pass, that, when Jehu3058 was executing judgment8199 on the house1004 of Ahab,256 and found4672 the princes8269 of Judah,3063 and the sons1121 of the brothers251 of Ahaziah,274 that ministered8334 to Ahaziah,274 he slew2026 them.

8 And when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, he found the princes of Judah and the sons of the brothers of Ahaziah who ministered to Ahaziah and slew them.

9 And he sought1245 Ahaziah:274 and they caught3920 him, (for he was hid2244 in Samaria,8111) and brought935 him to Jehu:3058 and when they had slain4191 him, they buried6912 him: Because,3588 said559 they, he is the son1121 of Jehoshaphat,3092 who834 sought1875 the LORD3068 with all3605 his heart.3824 So the house1004 of Ahaziah274 had no369 power3581 to keep6113 still the kingdom.4467

9 And he sought Ahaziah and he caught him (for he was hiding in Samaria) and brought him to Jehu; and when they had slain him, they buried him; for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no one with power to rule over the kingdom.

10 But when Athaliah6271 the mother517 of Ahaziah274 saw7200 that her son1121 was dead,4191 she arose6965 and destroyed1696 all3605 the seed2233 royal4467 of the house1004 of Judah.3063

10 Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the king's sons of the house of Judah.

11 But Jehoshabeath,3090 the daughter of the king,4428 took3947 Joash3101 the son1121 of Ahaziah,274 and stole1589 him from among8432 the king's4428 sons1121 that were slain,4191 and put5414 him and his nurse3243 in a bedchamber.2315 4296 So Jehoshabeath,3090 the daughter1323 of king4428 Jehoram,3088 the wife802 of Jehoiada3111 the priest,3548 (for she was the sister269 of Ahaziah,274) hid5641 him from Athaliah,6271 so that she slew4191 him not.

11 But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, stole Joash the son of Ahaziah from among the king's sons who were about to be slain, and hid him and his nurse in her bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of King Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiadah the priest (for she was the sister of Ahaziah), hid him from Athaliah so that she did not slay him.

12 And he was with them hid2244 in the house1004 of God430 six8337 years:8141 and Athaliah6271 reigned4427 over5921 the land.776

12 And he was hid with her in the house of the LORD six Years; and Athaliah reigned over the land.
