2 Chronicles 22:9 in Context — 2 Chronicles 22
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 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 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 Entonces Athalía madre de Ochôzías, viendo que su hijo era muerto, levantóse y destruyó toda la simiente real de la casa de Judá.
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.
