2 Kings 11
1 When Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she proceeded to annihilate all the royal heirs.
Vendo pois Athalia, mãe de Achazias, que seu filho era morto, levantou-se, e destruiu toda a semente real.
2 But Jehosheba daughter of King Joram, the sister of Ahaziah, took Joash son of Ahaziah and stole him away from among the sons of the king who were being murdered. She put him and his nurse in a bedroom to hide him from Athaliah, and he was not killed.
Mas Josebath, filha do rei Jorão, irmã de Achazias, tomou a Joás, filho de Achazias, e o furtou dentre os filhos do rei, aos quais matavam, e o pos, a ele e à sua ama na recâmara, e o escondeu d'Athalia, e assim não o mataram.
3 And Joash remained hidden with his nurse in the house of the LORD for six years while Athaliah ruled the land.
E esteve com ela escondido na casa do Senhor seis anos: e Athalia reinava sobre a terra.
4 Then in the seventh year, Jehoiada sent for the commanders of hundreds, the Carites, and the guards, and had them brought into the house of the LORD. There he made a covenant with them and put them under oath. He showed them the king’s son
E no sétimo ano enviou Joiada, e tomou os centuriões, com os capitães, e com os da guarda, e os meteu consigo na casa do Senhor: e fez com eles um concerto e os ajuramentou na casa do Senhor, e lhes mostrou o filho do rei.
5 and commanded them, “This is what you are to do: A third of you who come on duty on the Sabbath shall guard the royal palace,
E deu-lhes ordem, dizendo: Esta é a obra que vós haveis de fazer: uma terça parte de vós, que entra no sábado, fará a guarda da casa do rei:
6 a third shall be at the gate of Sur, and a third at the gate behind the guards. You are to take turns guarding the temple—
E outra terça parte estará à porta Sur; e a outra terça parte à porta detraz dos da guarda: assim fareis a guarda desta casa, afastando a todos.
7 the two divisions that would go off duty on the Sabbath are to guard the house of the LORD for the king.
E as duas partes de vós, a saber, todos os que saem no sábado, farão a guarda da casa do Senhor junto ao rei.
8 You must surround the king with weapons in hand, and anyone who approaches the ranks must be put to death. You must stay close to the king wherever he goes.”
E rodeareis o rei, cada um com as suas armas nas mãos, e aquele que entrar entre as fileiras o matarão; e vós estareis com o rei quando sair e quando entrar.
9 So the commanders of hundreds did everything that Jehoiada the priest had ordered. Each of them took his men—those coming on duty on the Sabbath and those going off duty—and came to Jehoiada the priest.
Fizeram pois os centuriões conforme tudo quanto ordenara o sacerdote Joiada, tomando cada um os seus homens, tanto aos que entravam no sábado como aos que saiam no sábado; e vieram ao sacerdote Joiada.
10 Then the priest gave to the commanders of hundreds the spears and shields of King David from the house of the LORD.
E o sacerdote deu aos centuriões as lanças, e os escudos que haviam sido do rei David, que estavam na casa do Senhor.
11 And the guards stood with weapons in hand surrounding the king by the altar and the temple, from the south side to the north side of the temple.
E os da guarda se puseram, cada um com as armas na mão, desde o lado direito da casa até ao lado esquerdo da casa, da banda do altar, e da banda da casa, junto ao rei em redor.
12 Then Jehoiada brought out the king’s son, put the crown on him, presented him with the Testimony, and proclaimed him king. They anointed him, and the people clapped their hands and declared, “Long live the king!”
Então ele tirou o filho do rei, e lhe pôs a coroa, e lhe deu o testemunho; e o fizeram rei, e o ungiram, e bateram as mãos, e disseram: Viva o rei!
13 When Athaliah heard the noise from the guards and the people, she went out to the people in the house of the LORD.
E Athalia, ouvindo a voz dos da guarda e do povo, entrou ao povo na casa do Senhor.
14 And she looked out and saw the king standing by the pillar, according to the custom. The officers and trumpeters were beside the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and screamed, “Treason! Treason!”
E olhou, e eis que o rei estava junto à coluna, conforme o costume, e os capitães e as trombetas junto ao rei, e todo o povo da terra estava alegre e tocava as trombetas: então Athalia rasgou os seus vestidos, e clamou: Traição! Traição!
15 And Jehoiada the priest ordered the commanders of hundreds in charge of the army, “Bring her out between the ranks, and put to the sword anyone who follows her.” For the priest had said, “She must not be put to death in the house of the LORD.”
Porém o sacerdote Joiada deu ordem aos centuriões que comandavam as tropas, e disse-lhes: tirai-a para fora das fileiras, e a quem a seguir matai-o à espada. Porque o sacerdote disse: Não a matem na casa do Senhor.
16 So they seized Athaliah as she reached the horses’ entrance to the palace grounds, and there she was put to death.
E lançaram-lhe as mãos a ela, e foi pelo caminho da entrada dos cavalos à casa do rei, e ali a mataram.
17 Then Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people that they would be the LORD’s people. He also made a covenant between the king and the people.
E Joiada fez um concerto entre o Senhor e o rei e o povo, que seria o povo do Senhor; como também entre o rei e o povo.
18 So all the people of the land went to the temple of Baal and tore it down. They smashed the altars and idols to pieces, and they killed Mattan the priest of Baal in front of the altars. And Jehoiada the priest posted guards for the house of the LORD.
Então todo o povo da terra entrou na casa de Baal, e a derribaram, como também os seus altares, e as suas imagens totalmente quebraram, e a Mattan, sacerdote de Baal, mataram perante os altares: então o sacerdote pôs oficiais sobre a casa do Senhor.
19 He took with him the commanders of hundreds, the Carites, the guards, and all the people of the land, and they brought the king down from the house of the LORD and entered the royal palace by way of the Gate of the Guards. Then Joash took his seat on the royal throne,
E tomou os centuriões, e os capitães, e os da guarda, e todo o povo da terra: e conduziram da casa do Senhor o rei, e vieram, pelo caminho da porta dos da guarda, à casa do rei, e se assentou no trono dos reis.
20 and all the people of the land rejoiced. And the city was quiet, because Athaliah had been put to the sword at the royal palace.
E todo o povo da terra se alegrou, e a cidade repousou, depois que mataram a Athalia à espada junto à casa do rei.
21 Joash was seven years old when he became king.
Era Joás da idade de sete anos quando o fizeram rei.
