Καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐν Ἰερουσαλὴμ τὸν Οχοζείαν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ τὸν μικρὸν ἀντʼ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι πάντας τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους ἀπέκτεινεν τὸ λῃστήριον τὸ ἐπελθὸν ἐπʼ αὐτούς, οἱ Ἄραβες οἱ Αλειμαζονεῖς· καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Οχοζείας υἱὸς Ἰωρὰμ βασιλέως Ἰούδα.

ὢν εἴκοσι ἐτῶν Οχοζείας ἐβασίλευσεν, καὶ ἐνιαυτὸν ἕνα ἐθάσιλευσεν ¹³ ἐν Ἰερουσαλήμ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ Γοθολία θυγάτηρ Ἀμβρεί.

καὶ οὗτος ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ οἴκου Ἀχαάβ, ὅτι μήτηρ αὐτοῦ ἦν σύμβουλος τοῦ ἁμαρτάνειν.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐναντίον Κυρίου ὡς οἶκος Ἀχαάβ, ὅτι αὐτοὶ ἤσαν αὐτῷ μετὰ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ σύμβουλοι τοῦ ἐξολεθρεῦσαι αὐτόν,

καὶ ἐν ταῖς βουλαῖς αὐτῶν ἐπορεύθη. καὶ ἐπορεύθη μετὰ Ἰωρὰμ υἱοῦ Ἀχαὰβ εἰς πόλεμον ἐπὶ Ἀζαὴλ βασιλέα Συρίας εἰς Ῥαμὰ Γαλαὰδ· καὶ ἐπάταξαν οἱ τοξόται τὸν Ἰωράμ.

καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ἰωρὰμ τοῦ ἰατρευθῆναι εἰς Ἰσραὴλ ἀῃὸ τῶν πληγῶν ὧν ἐπάταξαν αὐτὸν οἱ Σύροι ἐν Ῥαμὰ ἐν τῷ πολεμεῖν αὐτὸν πρὸς Ἀζαὴλ βασιλέα Συρίας· καὶ Οχοζείας υἱὸς Ἰωρὰμ βασιλεὺς Ἰούδα κατέβη θεᾶσθαι τὸν Ἰωρὰμ υἱὸν Ἀχαὰβ εἰς Ἰσραήλ, ὅτι ἠρρώστει.

καὶ παρὰ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐγένετο καταστροφὴ Φχοζείᾳ ἐλθεῖν πρὸς Ἰωράμ· καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐξελθεῖν ἐξῆλθεν μετʼ αὐτοῦ Ἰωρὰμ πρὸς υἱὸν Ναμεσσεὶ χριστὸν Κυρίου τὸν οἶκον Ἀχαάβ.

καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἐξεδίκησεν Ἰοὺ τὸν οἶκον Ἀχαάβ, καὶ εὗρον τοὺς Ἰουδα ἄρχοντας καὶ τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς Οχοζεία λειτουργοῦντας τῷ Οχοζείᾳ καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτούς.

καὶ εἶπεν τοῦ ζητῆσαι τὸν Οχοζείαν· καὶ κατέλαβον αὐτὸν ἰατρευόμενον ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ καὶ ἤγαγον αὐτὸν πρὸς Ἰού, καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτόν. καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτόν, ὅτι εἶπαν ζἱὸς Ἰωσαφάτ ἐστιν, ὁς ἐζήτησεν τὸν κύριον ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ· καὶ οὐκ ἦν ἐν οἶκῳ Φχοζεία κατισχῦσαι δύναμιν περὶ τῆς βασιλείας.

Καὶ Γοθολία ἡ μήτηρ ³Οχοζεία εἶδεν ὅτι τέθνηκεν αὐτῆς ὁ υἱός, καὶ ἠγέρθη καὶ ἀπώλεσεν πᾶν τὸ σπέρμα τῆς βασιλείας ἐν οἴκῳ Ἰούδα.

καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἰωσαβεὲ τὸν Ἰωὰς υἱὸν Οχοζεία, καὶ ἔκλεψεν αὐτὸν ἐκ μέσου υἱῶν τοῦ βασιλέως τῶν θανατουμέναων, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸν καὶ τὴν τροφὸν αὐτοῦ εἰς ταμεῖον κλινῶν· καὶ ἔκρυψεν αὐτὸν Ἰωσαβεὲ θυγάτηρ τοῦ βασιλέως Ἰωράμ, ἀδελφὴ Ὀχοζείου καὶ γυνὴ Ἰωδᾶε· καὶ ἔκρυψεν αὐτὸν ἀπὸ προσώπου Τοθολίας, καὶ οὐκ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτόν.

καὶ ἦν μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἐν ⁴⁵ οἴκῳ τοῦ θεοῦ κατακεκρυμμένος ἔξ ἔτη, καὶ Γοθολία ἐβασίλευσεν ⁶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.

The inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his place; for the band of men who came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.

Forty-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.

He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab; for his mother was his counselor to do wickedly.

He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as did the house of Ahab; for they were his counselors after the death of his father, to his destruction.

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.

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. Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.

Now the destruction of Ahaziah was of God, in that he went to Joram: for when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom Yahweh had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.

It happened, when Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Ahab, that he found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brothers of Ahaziah, ministering to Ahaziah, and killed them.

He sought Ahaziah, and they caught him (now he was hiding in Samaria), and they brought him to Jehu, and killed him; and they buried him, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Yahweh with all his heart. The house of Ahaziah had no power to hold the kingdom.

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.

But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him away from among the king’s sons who 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 didn’t kill him.

He was with them hid in the house of God six years: and Athaliah reigned over the land.
