2 Kings 16
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah, the son of Remaliah, Ahaz, the son of Jotham, became king of Judah.
No anno dezesete de Peka, filho de Remalias, começou a reinar Achaz, filho de Jothão, rei de Judah.
2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king; he was ruling for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord his God, as David his father did.
Tinha Achaz vinte annos de edade quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezeseis annos em Jerusalem, e não fez o que era recto aos olhos do Senhor seu Deus, como David, seu pae.
3 But he went in the ways of the kings of Israel, and even made his son go through the fire, copying the disgusting ways of the nations whom the Lord had sent out of the land before the children of Israel.
Porque andou no caminho dos reis de Israel: e até a seu filho fez passar pelo fogo, segundo as abominações dos gentios que o Senhor lançára fóra de diante dos filhos de Israel.
4 And he made offerings, burning them in the high places and on the hills and under every green tree.
Tambem sacrificou, e queimou incenso nos altos e nos outeiros, como tambem debaixo de todo o arvoredo.
5 Then Rezin, king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war; and they made an attack on Ahaz, shutting him in, but were not able to overcome him.
Então subiu Resin, rei da Syria, com Peka, filho de Remalias, rei de Israel, a Jerusalem, á peleja; e cercaram a Achaz, porém não o poderam vencer.
6 At that time the king of Edom got Elath back for Edom, and sent the Jews out of Elath; and the Edomites came back to Elath where they are living to this day.
N'aquelle mesmo tempo Resin, rei da Syria, restituiu Elath á Syria, e lançou fóra de Elath os judeus: e os syros vieram a Elath, e habitaram ali até ao dia d'hoje.
7 So Ahaz sent representatives to Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, saying, I am your servant and your son; come to my help against the kings of Aram and Israel who have taken up arms against me.
E Achaz enviou mensageiros a Tiglath-pileser, rei da Assyria, dizendo: Eu sou teu servo e teu filho; sobe, e livra-me das mãos do rei da Syria, e das mãos do rei de Israel, que se levantam contra mim.
8 And Ahaz took the silver and gold which were in the house of the Lord and in the king's store-house, and sent them as an offering to the king of Assyria.
E tomou Achaz a prata e o oiro que se achou na casa do Senhor e nos thesouros da casa do rei, e mandou um presente ao rei da Assyria.
9 And the king of Assyria, in answer to his request, went up against Damascus and took it, and took its people away as prisoners to Kir, and put Rezin to death.
E o rei da Assyria lhe deu ouvidos; pois o rei da Assyria subiu contra Damasco, e tomou-a, e levou-os presos a Kir, e matou a Resin.
10 Then King Ahaz went to Damascus for a meeting with Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria; and there he saw the altar which was at Damascus; and King Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest a copy of the altar, giving the design of it and all the details of its structure.
Então o rei Achaz foi a Damasco, a encontrar-se com Tiglath-pileser, rei da Assyria, e, vendo um altar que estava em Damasco, o rei Achaz enviou ao sacerdote Urias a similhança do altar, e o modelo, conforme toda a sua feição.
11 And from the copy King Ahaz sent from Damascus, Urijah made an altar and had it ready by the time King Ahaz came back from Damascus.
E Urias, o sacerdote, edificou um altar conforme tudo o que o rei Achaz tinha ordenado de Damasco; assim o fez o sacerdote Urias, entretanto que o rei Achaz viesse de Damasco.
12 And when the king came from Damascus, he saw the altar; and he went up on it and made an offering on it.
Vindo pois o rei de Damasco, o rei viu o altar; e o rei se chegou ao altar, e sacrificou n'elle.
13 He made his burned offering and his meal offering and his drink offering there, draining out the blood of his peace-offerings on the altar.
E queimou o seu holocausto, e a sua offerta de manjares, e derramou a sua libação: e espargiu o sangue dos seus sacrificios pacificos n'aquelle altar.
14 And the brass altar, which was before the Lord, he took from the front of the house, from between his altar and the house of the Lord, and put it on the north side of his altar.
Porém o altar de cobre, que estava perante o Senhor, tirou de diante da casa, de entre o seu altar e a casa do Senhor, e pôl-o ao lado do seu altar, da banda do norte.
15 And King Ahaz gave orders to Urijah the priest, saying, Make the morning burned offering and the evening meal offering and the king's burned offering and meal offering, with the burned offerings of all the people and their meal offerings and drink offerings, on the great altar, and put on it all the blood of the burned offerings and of the beasts which are offered; but the brass altar will be for my use to get directions from the Lord.
E o rei Achaz mandou a Urias o sacerdote, dizendo: No grande altar queima o holocausto de pela manhã, como tambem a offerta de manjares de noite, e o holocausto do rei, e a sua offerta de manjares, e o holocausto de todo o povo da terra, a sua offerta de manjares, e as suas offertas de bebida e todo o sangue dos holocaustos, e todo o sangue dos sacrificios espargirás n'elle; porém o altar de cobre será para mim, para inquirir d'elle.
16 So Urijah the priest did everything as the king said
E fez Urias, o sacerdote, conforme tudo quanto o rei Achaz lhe ordenara.
17 And King Ahaz took off the sides of the wheeled bases, and took down the great water-vessel from off the brass oxen which were under it and put it on a floor of stone.
E o rei Achaz cortou as cintas das bases, e de cima d'ellas tomou a pia, e o mar tirou de sobre os bois de cobre, que estavam debaixo d'elle, e pôl-o sobre um soalho de pedra.
18 the house of the Lord, because of the king of Assyria.
Tambem a coberta do sabbado, que edificaram na casa, e a entrada de fóra do rei, retirou da casa do Senhor, por causa do rei da Assyria.
19 Now the rest of the things which Ahaz did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
Ora o mais dos successos de Achaz, e o que fez, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Judah?
20 And Ahaz went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Hezekiah his son became king in his place.
E dormiu Achaz com seus paes, e foi sepultado junto a seus paes, na cidade de David: e Ezequias, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
