2 Chronicles 18
1 Now Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance. And he joined affinity with Ahab.
Tinha pois Josaphat riquezas e gloria em abundancia: e aparentou-se com Achab.
2 And after certain years he went down to Ahab to Samaria. And Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, and for the people who were with him, and moved him to go up with him to Ramoth-gilead.
E ao cabo d'alguns annos desceu elle para Achab a Samaria; e Achab matou ovelhas e bois em abundancia, para elle e para o povo que vinha com elle: e o persuadiu a subir com elle a Ramoth-gilead.
3 And Ahab king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Will thou go with me to Ramoth-gilead? And he answered him, I am as thou are, and my people as thy people, and will be with thee in the war.
Porque Achab, rei d'Israel, disse a Josaphat rei de Judah: Irás tu commigo a Ramoth-gilead? e elle lhe disse: Como tu és, serei eu; e o meu povo, como o teu povo; seremos comtigo n'esta guerra.
4 And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Inquire first, I pray thee, for the word of Jehovah.
Disse mais Josaphat ao rei d'Israel: Consulta hoje, peço-te, a palavra do Senhor.
5 Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, four hundred men, and said to them, Shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up. For God will deliver it into the hand of the king.
Então o rei d'Israel ajuntou os prophetas, quatrocentos homens, e disse-lhes: Iremos á guerra contra Ramoth-gilead, ou deixal-o-hei? E elles disseram: Sobe; porque Deus a dará na mão do rei
6 But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of Jehovah besides, that we may inquire of him?
Disse porém Josaphat: Não ha ainda aqui propheta algum do Senhor, para que o consultemos?
7 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of Jehovah, but I hate him. For he never prophesies good concerning me, but always evil; the same is Micaiah the son of Imla. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
Então o rei d'Israel disse a Josaphat: Ainda ha um homem por quem podemos consultar ao Senhor; porém eu o aborreço; porque nunca prophetiza de mim bem, senão sempre mal; este é Micha, filho de Imla. E disse Josaphat: Não falle o rei assim
8 Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, Fetch quickly Micaiah the son of Imla.
Então chamou o rei d'Israel um eunucho, e disse: Traze aqui depressa a Micha filho de Imla.
9 Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah each sat on his throne, arrayed in their robes. And they were sitting in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
E o rei d'Israel, e Josaphat rei de Judah estavam assentados cada um no seu throno, vestidos de vestiduras, e estavam assentados na praça á entrada da porta de Samaria, e todos os prophetas prophetizavam na sua presença.
10 And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made for him horns of iron, and said, Thus says Jehovah, With these thou shall push the Syrians until they be consumed.
E Zedekias, filho de Canana, fez para si uns cornos de ferro, e disse: Assim diz o Senhor: Com estes escornearás aos syros, até de todo os consumires.
11 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper. For Jehovah will deliver it into the hand of the king.
E todos os prophetas prophetizavam o mesmo, dizendo: Sobe a Ramoth-gilead, e prosperarás; porque o Senhor a dará na mão do rei.
12 And the messenger who went to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, Behold, the words of the prophets are good to the king with one mouth. Let thy word therefore, I pray thee, be like one of theirs, and speak thou good.
E o mensageiro, que foi chamar a Micha, lhe fallou, dizendo: Eis-que as palavras dos prophetas, a uma bocca, são boas para com o rei: seja pois tambem a tua palavra como a d'um d'elles, e falla o que é bom.
13 And Micaiah said, As Jehovah lives, what my God says, that will I speak.
Porém Micha disse: Vive o Senhor, que o que meu Deus me disser, isso fallarei.
14 And when he came to the king, the king said to him, Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go ye up, and prosper, and they shall be delivered into your hand.
Vindo pois ao rei, o rei lhe disse: Micha, iremos a Ramoth-gilead á guerra, ou deixal-o-hei? E elle disse: Subi, e prosperareis; e serão dados na vossa mão.
15 And the king said to him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of Jehovah?
E o rei lhe disse: Até quantas vezes te conjurarei, para que me não falles senão a verdade no nome do Senhor?
16 And he said, I saw all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. And Jehovah said, These have no master. Let them return every man to his house in peace.
Então disse elle: Vi a todo o Israel disperso pelos montes, como ovelhas que não teem pastor: e disse o Senhor: Estes não teem senhor; torne cada um em paz para sua casa.
17 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?
Então o rei d'Israel disse a Josaphat: Não te disse eu, que este não prophetizaria de mim bem, porém mal
18 And Micaiah said, Therefore hear ye the word of Jehovah. I saw Jehovah sitting upon his throne, and all the host of heaven standing at his right hand and at his left.
Disse mais: Pois ouvi a palavra do Senhor: Vi ao Senhor assentado no seu throno, e a todo o exercito celestial em pé á sua mão direita, e á sua esquerda.
19 And Jehovah said, Who shall entice Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead? And one spoke saying after this manner, and another saying after that manner.
E disse o Senhor: Quem persuadirá a Achab rei d'Israel, a que suba, e caia em Ramoth-gilead? disse mais: Um diz d'esta maneira, e outro diz d'outra.
20 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before Jehovah, and said, I will entice him. And Jehovah said to him, With what?
Então saiu um espirito e se apresentou diante do Senhor, e disse: Eu o persuadirei. E o Senhor lhe disse: Com que?
21 And he said, I will go forth, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shall entice him, and shall also prevail. Go forth, and do so.
E elle disse: Eu sairei, e serei um espirito de mentira na bocca de todos os seus prophetas. E disse o Senhor: Tu o persuadirás, e tambem prevalecerás; sae, e faze-o assim.
22 Now therefore, behold, Jehovah has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets. And Jehovah has spoken evil concerning thee.
Agora pois, eis que o Senhor enviou um espirito de mentira na bocca d'estes teus prophetas: e o Senhor fallou o mal a teu respeito.
23 Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and smote Micaiah upon the cheek, and said, Which way did the Spirit of Jehovah go from me to speak to thee?
Então Zedekias, filho de Canana, se chegou, e feriu a Micha no queixo; e disse: Porque caminho passou de mim o Espirito do Senhor para fallar a ti?
24 And Micaiah said, Behold, thou shall see on that day when thou shall go into an inner chamber to hide thyself.
E disse Micha: Eis que o verás n'aquelle dia, quando andares de camara em camara, para te esconderes.
25 And the king of Israel said, Take ye Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son,
Então disse o rei d'Israel; Tomae a Micha, e tornae a leval-o a Amon, o governador da cidade, e a Joás filho do rei.
26 and say, Thus says the king, Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I return in peace.
E direis: Assim diz o rei: Mettei este homem na casa do carcere; e sustentae-o com pão de angustia, e com agua d'angustia, até que eu volte em paz.
27 And Micaiah said, If thou return at all in peace, Jehovah has not spoken by me. And he said, Hear, ye peoples, all of you.
E disse Micha: Se é que tornares em paz, o Senhor não tem fallado por mim. Disse mais: Ouvi, povos todos!
28 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
Subiram pois o rei d'Israel e Josaphat rei de Judah, a Ramoth-gilead.
29 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and go into the battle, but put thou on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself, and they went into the battle.
E disse o rei d'Israel a Josaphat: Disfarçando-me eu, então entrarei na peleja; tu porém veste as tuas vestiduras. Disfarçou-se pois o rei d'Israel, e entraram na peleja.
30 Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of his chariots, saying, Fight neither with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel.
Deu ordem porém o rei da Syria aos capitães dos carros que tinha, dizendo: Não pelejareis nem contra pequeno, nem contra grande: senão só contra o rei d'Israel.
31 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they turned around to fight against him. But Jehoshaphat cried out. And Jehovah helped him, and God moved them from him.
Succedeu pois que, vendo os capitães dos carros a Josaphat, disseram: Este é o rei d'Israel, e o cercaram para pelejarem; porém Josaphat clamou, e o Senhor o ajudou. E Deus os desviou d'elle.
32 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.
Porque succedeu que, vendo os capitães dos carros, que não era o rei d'Israel, tornaram de seguil-o.
33 And a certain man drew his bow at a venture, and smote the king of Israel between the joints of the armor. Therefore he said to the driver of the chariot, Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the army. For I am severely wounded.
Então um homem armou o arco na sua simplicidade, e feriu o rei d'Israel entre as junturas e a couraça: então disse ao carreteiro: Vira a tua mão, e tira-me do exercito, porque estou mui ferido.
34 And the battle increased that day. However the king of Israel propped himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the evening. And about the time of the going down of the sun he died.
E aquelle dia cresceu a peleja, mas o rei d'Israel susteve-se em pé no carro defronte dos syros até á tarde; e morreu ao tempo do pôr do sol
