The Bible

1

As ren cummaltee Yerusalem Ahaziah e vac saa y yannoo dy ve yn ree ayns e ynnyd; son va'n cheshaght dy gheiney haink marish ny Arabianee gys y champ, er stroie ooilley yn vooinjer shinney. Myr shoh haink Ahaziah mac Jehoram, ree Yudah, dy reill.

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.

2

Daa vleïn as feed dy eash va Ahaziah tra ren eh toshiaght dy reill, as ren eh reill un vleïn ayns Jerusalem: va ennym e voir myrgeddin Athaliah inneen Omri.

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.

3

Ren eshyn myrgeddin gimmeeaght ayns raaidyn thie Ahab: son er drogh choyrle e voir ren eh dy olk.

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

4

Er-y-fa shoh ren eh olk ayns shilley'n Chiarn, myr ren thie Ahab: son lurg baase e ayrey, adsyn va ny fir-choyrlee echey, gys e hoyrt-mow.

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.

5

Ghow eh myrgeddin y choyrle oc, as hie eh marish Jehoram mac Ahab ree Israel, dy chaggey noi Hazael ree Syria ec Ramoth-gilead: as woaill ny Syrianee 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 Ramothgilead: and the Syrians smote Joram.

6

As hyndaa eh reesht dy ve er ny lheihys ayns Jezreel, jeh ny lhottyn hooar eh ec Ramah, tra ren eh caggey rish Hazael ree Syria. As hie Ahaziah mac Jehoram ree Yudah sheese dy yeeaghyn Jehoram mac Ahab va ching ayns Jezreel.

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.

7

As va toyrt-mow Ahaziah veih Jee son goll marish Joram: son hie eh magh marish Jehoram noi Jehu mac Nimshi, eh va'n Chiarn er ooilaghey dy yiarey jeh thie Ahab.

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.

8

As haink eh gy-kione, tra va Jehu cooilleeney briwnys er thie Ahab as dy dooar eh magh princeyn Yudah, as mec braaraghyn Ahaziah, va ayns shirveish Ahaziah, dy varr eh ad.

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.

9

As hooar eh magh Ahaziah: as haare ad eh, (son v'eh follit ayns Samaria) as hug ad lhieu eh gys Jehu: as tra v'ad er varroo eh, d'oanluck ad eh, er-y-fa (dooyrt ad) t'eh mac Jehoshaphat, ren geiyrt er y Chiarn lesh ooilley e chree. Myr shoh cha row fort erbee ec thie Ahaziah dy reayll daue hene yn reeriaght.

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.

10

Agh tra honnick Athaliah moir Ahaziah, dy row yn mac eck marroo, hrog ee urree, as stroie ee ooilley sluight reeoil thie Yudah.

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.

11

Agh ghow Jehoshabeath inneen y ree Joash mac Ahaziah, as gheid ee eh ersooyl veih mastey mec y ree v'er nyn stroie, as dollee ee eh-hene as e voandyr ayns shamyr-lhiabbagh. Myr shoh ren Jehoshabeath inneen ree Jehoram, ben Jehoiada yn saggyrt (son v'ee shuyr Ahaziah) keiltyn eh veih Athaliah, myr shen nagh dug ee gy-baase eh.

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.

12

As v'eh oc follit ayns thie Yee son shey bleeaney, as ren Athaliah reill harrish y cheer.

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