Det Norsk Bibelselskap 1930
22 Derefter gjorde Jerusalems innbyggere hans yngste sønn Akasja til konge i hans sted; for alle de eldre var blitt drept av den røverflokk som var kommet til leiren sammen med araberne. Således blev Jorams sønn Akasja konge i Juda.
2 Akasja var to og tyve år gammel da han blev konge, og regjerte ett år i Jerusalem; hans mor hette Atalja og var en datter av Omri.
3 Også han vandret på samme veier som Akabs hus; for hans mor forførte ham med sine råd til ugudelighet.
4 Han gjorde hvad ondt var i Herrens øine, likesom Akabs hus; for efter hans fars død var de hans rådgivere til hans egen ødeleggelse.
5 Det var også deres råd han fulgte da han sammen med Israels konge Joram, Akabs sønn, drog ut i krig mot Hasael, kongen i Syria, og stred mot ham ved Ramot i Gilead. Men syrerne såret Joram.
6 Da vendte han tilbake for å la sig læge i Jisre'el for de sår han hadde fått ved Rama da han stred mot kongen i Syria Hasael, og Judas konge Asarja[a], Jorams sønn, drog ned til Jisre'el for å se til Joram, Akabs sønn, fordi han var syk.
7 Men det var Gud som vilde at Akasja skulde gå til grunne, og derfor styrte det så at han kom til Joram; for da han var kommet dit, drog han med Joram ut mot Jehu, Nimsis sønn, som Herren hadde salvet til å utrydde Akabs hus,
8 og så hendte det at Jehu, da han fullbyrdet dommen over Akabs hus, møtte Judas høvdinger og Akasjas brorsønner, som var i Akasjas tjeneste, og drepte dem.
9 Så søkte han efter Akasja, og han blev grepet mens han holdt sig skjult i Samaria, og de førte ham til Jehu og drepte ham. Så begravde de ham; for de sa: Han er en sønn av Josafat, som søkte Herren av alt sitt hjerte. Men det var ingen igjen av Akasjas hus som var i stand til å overta kongedømmet.
10 Da Akasjas mor Atalja fikk vite at hennes sønn var død, tok hun sig for å utrydde hele kongeætten i Judas hus.
11 Men kongedatteren Josabat tok Joas, Akasjas sønn, og førte ham hemmelig bort fra kongesønnene som skulde drepes, og førte ham og hans amme inn i sengkammeret; der skjulte Josabat, kong Jorams datter, presten Jojadas hustru, ham - for hun var søster til Akasja - for Atalja, så hun ikke fikk drept ham.
12 Siden var han hos dem i Guds hus og blev holdt skjult i seks år, mens Atalja regjerte i landet.

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.
