2 Chronicles 22:4

Wherefore he did evil in the sight of the Lord, like the house
of Ahab
See ( 2 Kings 8:27 )

for they were his counsellors, after the death of his father, to his
destruction;
both of soul and body; for they gave him bad advice, both in religious and civil things; these were some of the family or court of the king of Israel, that his mother sent for after his father's death to be of his council.

2 Chronicles 22:4 In-Context

2 Forty-two years old was Achazyah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Yerushalayim: and his mother's name was `Atalyah the daughter of `Omri.
3 He also walked in the ways of the house of Ach'av; for his mother was his counselor to do wickedly.
4 He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as did the house of Ach'av; for they were his counselors after the death of his father, to his destruction.
5 He walked also after their counsel, and went with Yehoram the son of Ach'av king of Yisra'el to war against Haza'el king of Aram at Ramot-Gil`ad: and the Aram wounded Yoram.
6 He returned to be healed in Yizre`el of the wounds which they had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Haza'el king of Aram. `Azaryah the son of Yehoram king of Yehudah went down to see Yehoram the son of Ach'av in Yizre`el, because he was sick.
