1 # And the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Jerusalem <03389> made <04427> <00> Ahaziah <0274> his youngest <06996> son <01121> king <04427> (8686) in his stead: for the band of men <01416> that came <0935> (8802) with the Arabians <06163> to the camp <04264> had slain <02026> (8804) all the eldest <07223>. So Ahaziah <0274> the son <01121> of Jehoram <03088> king <04428> of Judah <03063> reigned <04427> (8799).
2 Forty <0705> and two <08147> years <08141> old <01121> was Ahaziah <0274> when he began to reign <04427> (8800), and he reigned <04427> (8804) one <0259> year <08141> in Jerusalem <03389>. His mother's <0517> name <08034> also was Athaliah <06271> the daughter <01323> of Omri <06018>.
3 He also walked <01980> (8804) in the ways <01870> of the house <01004> of Ahab <0256>: for his mother <0517> was his counsellor <03289> (8802) to do wickedly <07561> (8687).
4 Wherefore he did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068> like the house <01004> of Ahab <0256>: for they were his counsellors <03289> (8802) after <0310> the death <04194> of his father <01> to his destruction <04889>.
5 He walked <01980> (8804) also after their counsel <06098>, and went <03212> (8799) with Jehoram <03088> the son <01121> of Ahab <0256> king <04428> of Israel <03478> to war <04421> against Hazael <02371> king <04428> of Syria <0758> at Ramothgilead <07433> <01568>: and the Syrians <07421> smote <05221> (8686) Joram <03141>.
6 And he returned <07725> (8799) to be healed <07495> (8692) in Jezreel <03157> because of the wounds <04347> which were given <05221> (8689) him at Ramah <07414>, when he fought <03898> (8736) with Hazael <02371> king <04428> of Syria <0758>. And Azariah <05838> the son <01121> of Jehoram <03088> king <04428> of Judah <03063> went down <03381> (8804) to see <07200> (8800) Jehoram <03088> the son <01121> of Ahab <0256> at Jezreel <03157> , because he was sick <02470> (8802).
7 And the destruction <08395> of Ahaziah <0274> was of God <0430> by coming <0935> (8800) to Joram <03141> : for when he was come <0935> (8800), he went out <03318> (8804) with Jehoram <03088> against Jehu <03058> the son <01121> of Nimshi <05250>, whom the LORD <03068> had anointed <04886> (8804) to cut off <03772> (8687) the house <01004> of Ahab <0256>.
8 And it came to pass, that, when Jehu <03058> was executing judgment <08199> (8736) upon the house <01004> of Ahab <0256> , and found <04672> (8799) the princes <08269> of Judah <03063>, and the sons <01121> of the brethren <0251> of Ahaziah <0274>, that ministered <08334> (8764) to Ahaziah <0274>, he slew <02026> (8799) them.
9 And he sought <01245> (8762) Ahaziah <0274>: and they caught <03920> (8799) him, (for he was hid <02244> (8693) in Samaria <08111>,) and brought <0935> (8686) him to Jehu <03058>: and when they had slain <04191> (8686) him, they buried <06912> (8799) him: Because, said <0559> (8804) they, he is the son <01121> of Jehoshaphat <03092> , who sought <01875> (8804) the LORD <03068> with all his heart <03824>. So the house <01004> of Ahaziah <0274> had no power <03581> to keep <06113> (8800) still the kingdom <04467>.
10 # But when Athaliah <06271> the mother <0517> of Ahaziah <0274> saw <07200> (8804) that her son <01121> was dead <04191> (8804), she arose <06965> (8799) and destroyed <01696> (8762) all the seed <02233> royal <04467> of the house <01004> of Judah <03063>.
11 But Jehoshabeath <03090>, the daughter <01323> of the king <04428>, took <03947> (8799) Joash <03101> the son <01121> of Ahaziah <0274>, and stole <01589> (8799) him from among <08432> the king's <04428> sons <01121> that were slain <04191> (8716), and put <05414> (8799) him and his nurse <03243> (8688) in a bedchamber <02315> <04296>. So Jehoshabeath <03090>, the daughter <01323> of king <04428> Jehoram <03088>, the wife <0802> of Jehoiada <03077> the priest <03548>, (for she was the sister <0269> of Ahaziah <0274>,) hid <05641> (8686) him from <06440> Athaliah <06271>, so that she slew <04191> (8689) him not.
12 And he was with them hid <02244> (8693) in the house <01004> of God <0430> six <08337> years <08141> : and Athaliah <06271> reigned <04427> (8802) over the land <0776>.
