2 Chronicles 22:11 in Context — 2 Chronicles 22

9 Il chercha Achazia, et on le saisit dans Samarie, où il s’était caché. On l’amena auprès de Jéhu, et on le fit mourir. Puis ils l’enterrèrent, car ils disaient: C’est le fils de Josaphat, qui cherchait l’Éternel de tout son cœur. Et il ne resta personne de la maison d’Achazia qui fût en état de régner.

10 Athalie, mère d’Achazia, voyant que son fils était mort, se leva et fit périr toute la race royale de la maison de Juda.

11 Mais Joschabeath, fille du roi, prit Joas, fils d’Achazia, et l’enleva du milieu des fils du roi, quand on les fit mourir: elle le mit avec sa nourrice dans la chambre des lits. Ainsi Joschabeath, fille du roi Joram, femme du sacrificateur Jehojada, et sœur d’Achazia, le déroba aux regards d’Athalie, qui ne le fit point mourir.

12 Il resta six ans caché avec eux dans la maison de Dieu. Et c’était Athalie qui régnait dans le pays.
