2 Chronicles 22:7 in Context — 2 Chronicles 22

5 Entraîné par leur conseil, il alla avec Joram, fils d’Achab, roi d’Israël, à la guerre contre Hazaël, roi de Syrie, à Ramoth en Galaad. Et les Syriens blessèrent Joram.

6 Joram s’en retourna pour se faire guérir à Jizreel des blessures que les Syriens lui avaient faites à Rama, lorsqu’il se battait contre Hazaël, roi de Syrie. Azaria, fils de Joram, roi de Juda, descendit pour voir Joram, fils d’Achab, à Jizreel, parce qu’il était malade.

7 Par la volonté de Dieu, ce fut pour sa ruine qu’Achazia se rendit auprès de Joram. Lorsqu’il fut arrivé, il sortit avec Joram pour aller au-devant de Jéhu, fils de Nimschi, que l’Éternel avait oint pour exterminer la maison d’Achab.

8 Et comme Jéhu faisait justice de la maison d’Achab, il trouva les chefs de Juda et les fils des frères d’Achazia, qui étaient au service d’Achazia, et il les tua.

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.
