2 Crónicas 22
1Los habitantes de Jerusalén proclamaron rey en su lugar a Ococías, su hijo menor; porque las bandas que con los árabes habían venido a hacer guerra, habían dado muerte a todos los mayores, de suerte que Ococías, hijo de Joram, rey de Judá, llegó al trono. 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.2Tenía Ococías cuarenta y dos años cuando empezó a reinar, y reinó un año en Jerusalén. Su madre se llamaba Atalía, hija de Amrí. 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.3También este (rey) siguió los caminos de la casa de Acab, ya que su misma madre le instigaba a hacer el mal. But he too went forth in the ways of the house of Ahab. For his mother impelled him to act impiously.4Hizo lo que era malo a los ojos de Yahvé, como los de la casa de Acab, porque después de la muerte de su padre, ellos fueron sus consejeros y le llevaron a la perdición. 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.5Siguiendo el consejo de ellos, fue con Joram, hijo de Acab, rey de Israel, a la guerra contra Hasael, rey de Siria, a Ramot-Galaad, donde los sirios hirieron a Joram, 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.6el cual se retiró a Jesreel para curarse de las heridas que había recibido en Ramá, en la batalla con Hasael, rey de Siria. Cuando Ococías, hijo de Joram, rey de Judá, bajó a Jesreel para visitar a Joram, hijo de Acab, en Jesreel, que se hallaba enfermo, 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.7vino de Dios la ruina de Ococías, por haber ido a ver a Joram; pues llegado (allí), salió con Joram al encuentro de Jehú, hijo de Namsí, a quien Yahvé había ungido para exterminar la casa de Acab. 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.8Así, pues, Jehú, mientras ejecutaba el castigo de la casa de Acab, se encontró con los príncipes de Judá y los hijos de los hermanos de Ococías, que pertenecían a la corte de Ococías, y los mató. 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.9Y buscó a Ococías, al que prendieron en Samaria, donde se había escondido. Lo presentaron a Jehú, y habiéndole dado muerte, le sepultaron; pues decían: “Es hijo de Josafat, que buscaba a Yahvé con todo su corazón.” Y no quedó de la casa de Ococías nadie que fuese capaz de reinar. 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.10Cuando Atalía, madre de Ococías, vio que era muerto su hijo, se levantó, y exterminó toda la estirpe real de la casa de Judá. For indeed, his mother, Athaliah, seeing that her son had died, rose up and killed the entire royal stock of the house of Jehoram.11Pero Josabet, hija del rey, tomó a Joás, hijo de Ococías, arrebatándole de entre los hijos del rey cuando los mataban, y lo escondió, juntamente con su nodriza, en un dormitorio. Así Josabet, hija del rey Joram, mujer del sacerdote Joiadá, y hermana de Ococías, lo ocultó de la vista de Atalía, la cual no pudo darle muerte. 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.12Estuvo con ellos escondido en la Casa de Dios durante seis años, y reinó Atalía sobre el país. Therefore, he was with them, hidden in the house of God, for six years, while Athaliah reigned over the land.
