1. And the inhabitants of Yerushalayim made Achazyahu (Ahaziah of Judah) his (i.e., Yehoram's) youngest son melech in his place; for the troops that came with the Arabs into the machaneh had slain all the eldest. So Achazyahu (Ahaziah) ben Yehoram Melech Yehudah reigned.
2. Twenty and two years old was Achazyahu (Ahaziah) when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Yerushalayim And shem immo was Atalyah bat Omri (i.e., granddaughter of Omri the father of Ahab).
3. He also walked in the darkhei Bais Ach'av (Ahab); for immo (his mother) was his counselor to do rah.
4. Therefore he did rah in the eyes of Hashem like the Bais Ach'av (House of Ahab); for they were his yo'atzim (counselors) after the mot (death) of his av to his (i.e., Achazyahu's, Ahaziah's) ruin.
5. He walked also after their etza (advice, counsel), and went with Yehoram ben Ach'av Melech Yisroel to war against Chatzael Melech Aram (Syria) at Ramot Gil'ad; and the Syrians wounded Yoram.
