| 1 | And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned. | And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead; for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned. | Gli abitanti di Gerusalemme proclamarono suo figlio minore Achaziah re al suo posto, perché tutti i figli più anziani erano stati uccisi dalla banda che era penetrata nell'accampamento con gli Arabi. Così regnò Achaziah, figlio di Jehoram, re di Giuda. |
| 2 | Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Athaliah the daughter of Omri. | Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem: and his mother`s name was Athaliah the daughter of Omri. | Achaziah aveva quarantadue anni quando iniziò a regnare, e regnò un anno a Gerusalemme. Sua madre si chiamava Athaliah, figlia di Omri. |
| 3 | He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab: for his mother was his counsellor to do wickedly. | He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab; for his mother was his counsellor to do wickedly. | Anch'egli seguì le vie della casa di Achab, perché sua madre lo consigliava ad agire empiamente. |
| 4 | Wherefore he 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. | And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, as did the house of Ahab; for they were his counsellors after the death of his father, to his destruction. | Perciò egli fece ciò che è male agli occhi dell'Eterno, come facevano quelli della casa di Achab, perché dopo la morte di suo padre questi furono, per sua rovina, i suoi consiglieri. |
| 5 | He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramothgilead: and the Syrians smote Joram. | He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramoth-gilead: and the Syrians wounded Joram. | Seguendo il loro consiglio, egli andò con Jehoram, figlio di Achab re d'Israele, a combattere contro Hazael, re di Siria, a Ramoth di Galaad; e i Siri, ferirono Jehoram. |
| 6 | And he returned to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds which were given him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jezreel, because he was sick. | And he returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which they had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick. | Così egli ritornò a Jezreel per farsi curare delle ferite che aveva ricevuto a Ramah, combattendo contro Hazael, re di Siria. Achaziah figlio di Jehoram, re di Giuda, scese a vedere Jehoram, figlio di Achab, in Jezreel, perché questi era malato. |
| 7 | And the destruction of Ahaziah was of God by coming to Joram: for when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab. | Now the destruction of Ahaziah was of God, in that he went unto Joram: for when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom Jehovah had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab. | La visita di Achaziah a Jehoram fu decretata da DIO per la sua rovina. Quando giunse, infatti, egli uscì con Jehoram contro Jehu, figlio di Nimsci, che l'Eterno aveva unto per sterminare la casa di Achab. |
| 8 | And it came to pass, that, when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, and found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, that ministered to Ahaziah, he slew them. | And it came to pass, when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, that he found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, ministering to Ahaziah, and slew them. | Or avvenne che, mentre Jehu faceva giustizia della casa di Achab, incontrò i capi di Giuda e i figli dei fratelli di Achaziah che erano al servizio di Achaziah e li uccise. |
| 9 | And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in Samaria,) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain him, they buried him: Because, said they, he is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom. | And he sought Ahaziah, and they caught him (now he was hiding in Samaria), and they brought him to Jehu, and slew him; and they buried him, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Jehovah with all his heart. And the house of Ahaziah had no power to hold the kingdom. | Fece pure ricercare Achaziah e lo catturarono (egli si era nascosto in Samaria); lo condussero quindi da Jehu che lo uccise. Poi lo seppellirono, perché dicevano: E' figlio di Giosafat, che cercava l'Eterno con tutto il suo cuore. Così nella casa di Achaziah non rimase più alcuno che fosse in grado di regnare. |
| 10 | But when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal of the house of Judah. | Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal of the house of Judah. | Quando Athaliah, madre di Achaziah, vide che suo figlio era morto, si levò e distrusse tutta la discendenza reale della casa di Giuda. |
| 11 | But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah,) hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not. | But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him away from among the king`s sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in the bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest (for she was the sister of Ahaziah), hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not. | Ma Jehoshabeath, figlia del re, prese Joas, figlio di Achaziah, lo trafugò di mezzo ai figli del re che erano uccisi e lo mise con la nutrice nella camera dei letti. Così Jehoshabeath, figlia del re Jehoram, moglie del sacerdote Jehoiada (era la sorella di Achaziah), lo nascose ad Athaliah, che non lo uccise. |
| 12 | And he was with them hid in the house of God six years: and Athaliah reigned over the land. | And he was with them hid in the house of God six years: and Athaliah reigned over the land. | Così rimase nascosto con loro nella casa di DIO per sei anni, mentre Athaliah regnava sul paese. |
