1 The inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, Jehoram's youngest son, king in his place, for the band of men that came with the Arabians into the camp had killed all his older sons. So Ahaziah son of Jehoram, king of Judah, became king.
1 Y LOS moradores de Jerusalem hicieron rey en lugar suyo á Ochôzías su hijo menor: porque la tropa que había venido con los Arabes al campo, había muerto á todos los mayores; por lo cual reinó Ochôzías, hijo de Joram rey de Judá.
2 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; he reigned for one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Athaliah; she was the daughter of Omri.
2 Cuando Ochôzías comenzó á reinar era de cuarenta y dos años, y reinó un año en Jerusalem. El nombre de su madre fué Athalía, hija de Omri.
3 He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab for his mother was his advisor in doing wicked things.
3 También él anduvo en los caminos de la casa de Achâb: porque su madre le aconsejaba á obrar impíamente.
4 Ahaziah did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as the house of Ahab was doing, for they were his advisors after the death of his father, to his destruction.
4 Hizo pues lo malo en ojos de Jehová, como la casa de Achâb; porque después de la muerte de su padre, ellos le aconsejaron para su perdición.
5 He also followed their advice; he went with Joram son of Ahab, king of Israel, to fight against Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth Gilead. The Arameans wounded Joram.
5 Y él anduvo en los consejos de ellos, y fué á la guerra con Joram hijo de Achâb, rey de Israel, contra Hazael rey de Siria, á Ramoth de Galaad, donde los Siros hirieron á Joram.
6 Joram returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds that they had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael, king of Aram. So Ahaziah son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to Jezreel to see Joram son of Ahab, because Joram had been wounded.
6 Y se volvió para curarse en Jezreel de las heridas que le habían hecho en Rama, peleando con Hazael rey de Siria. Y descendió Azarías hijo de Joram, rey de Judá, á visitar á Joram hijo de Achâb, en Jezreel, porque allí estaba enfermo.
7 Now the destruction of Ahaziah was brought about by God through Ahaziah's visit to Joram. When he had arrived, he went with Jehoram to attack Jehu son of Nimshi, whom Yahweh had chosen to destroy the house of Ahab.
7 Esto empero [venía] de Dios, para que Ochôzías fuese hollado viniendo á Joram: porque siendo venido, salió con Joram contra Jehú hijo de Nimsi, al cual Jehová había ungido para que talase la casa de Achâb.
8 It came about, when Jehu was carrying out God's judgment on the house of Ahab, that he found the leaders of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah's brothers serving Ahaziah. Jehu killed them.
8 Y fué que, haciendo juicio Jehú con la casa de Achâb, halló á los príncipes de Judá, y á los hijos de los hermanos de Ochôzías, que servían á Ochôzías, y matólos.
9 Jehu looked for Ahaziah; they caught him hiding in Samaria, brought him to Jehu, and killed him. Then they buried him, for they said, “He is a son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Yahweh with all his heart.” So the house of Ahaziah had no more power to rule the kingdom.
9 Y buscando á Ochôzías, el cual se había escondido en Samaria, tomáronlo, y trajéronlo á Jehú, y le mataron; y diéronle sepultura, porque dijeron: Es hijo de Josaphat, el cual buscó á Jehová de todo su corazón. Y la casa de Ochôzías no tenía fuerzas para poder retener el reino.
10 Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she arose and killed all the royal children in the house of Judah.
10 Entonces Athalía madre de Ochôzías, viendo que su hijo era muerto, levantóse y destruyó toda la simiente real de la casa de Judá.
11 But Jehosheba, a daughter of the king, secretly took Joash son of Ahaziah away from the king's sons who were about to be killed. She put him and his nurse into a bedroom. So Jehosheba, a daughter of King Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest (for she was the sister of Ahaziah), hid him from Athaliah, so that Athaliah did not kill him.
11 Empero Josabeth, hija del rey, tomó á Joas hijo de Ochôzías, y arrebatólo de entre los hijos del rey, que mataban, y guardóle á él y á su ama en la cámara de los lechos. Así pues lo escondió Josabeth, hija del rey Joram, mujer de Joiada el sacerdote, (porque ella era hermana de Ochôzías), de delante de Athalía, y no lo mataron.
12 He was with them, hidden in the house of God for six years, while Athaliah reigned over the land.
12 Y estuvo con ellos escondido en la casa de Dios seis años. Entre tanto Athalía reinaba en el país.
