2 Chronicles 12
1 And when the kingdom of Rehoboam had been strengthened and fortified, he abandoned the law of the Lord, and all of Israel with him.
Succedeu pois que, havendo Roboão confirmado o reino, e havendo-se fortalecido, deixou a lei do Senhor, e com elle todo o Israel.
2 Then, in the fifth year of the reign of Rehoboam, Shishak, the king of Egypt, ascended against Jerusalem (for they had sinned against the Lord)
Pelo que succedeu, no anno quinto do rei Roboão, que Sisak, rei do Egypto, subiu contra Jerusalem (porque tinham transgredido contra o Senhor)
3 with one thousand two hundred chariots and sixty thousand horsemen. And the common people could not be numbered who had arrived with him from Egypt, namely, the Libyans, and the Troglodytes, and the Ethiopians.
Com mil e duzentos carros, e com sessenta mil cavalleiros; e era innumeravel a gente que vinha com elle do Egypto, de lybios, suchitas e ethiopes.
4 And he seized the most fortified cities in Judah, and he went even to Jerusalem.
E tomou as cidades fortes, que Judah tinha; e veiu a Jerusalem.
5 Then Shemaiah, the prophet, entered to Rehoboam, and to the leaders of Judah who had gathered together in Jerusalem while fleeing from Shishak, and he said to them: “Thus says the Lord: You have abandoned me, and so I have abandoned you into the hand of Shishak.”
Então veiu Semaias, o propheta, a Roboão e aos principes de Judah que se ajuntaram em Jerusalem por causa de Sisak, e disse-lhes: Assim diz o Senhor: Vós me deixastes a mim, pelo que eu tambem vos deixei na mão de Sisak.
6 And the leaders of Israel, and the king, being in consternation, said, “The Lord is just.”
Então se humilharam os principes d'Israel, e o rei, e disseram: O Senhor é justo.
7 And when the Lord had seen that they were humbled, the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, saying: “Because they have been humbled, I will not disperse them. And I will give to them a little help, and my fury will not rain down upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
Vendo pois o Senhor que se humilhavam, veiu a palavra do Senhor a Semaias, dizendo: Humilharam-se, não os destruirei; antes em breve lhes darei logar d'escaparem, para que o meu furor se não derrame sobre Jerusalem, por mão de Sisak.
8 Yet truly, they shall serve him, so that they may know the difference between my servitude, and the servitude of a kingdom of the lands.”
Porém serão seus servos: para que conheçam a differença da minha servidão e da servidão dos reinos da terra
9 And so Shishak, the king of Egypt, withdrew from Jerusalem, taking up the treasures of the house of the Lord and of the house of the king. And he took away everything with him, even the gold shields that Solomon had made.
Subiu pois Sisak, rei do Egypto, contra Jerusalem, e tomou os thesouros da casa do Senhor, e os thesouros da casa do rei; levou tudo: tambem tomou os escudos d'oiro, que Salomão fizera.
10 In place of these, the king made bronze ones, and he delivered them to the leaders of the shield bearers, who were guarding the vestibule of the palace.
E fez o rei Roboão em logar d'elles escudos de cobre, e os entregou na mão dos capitães da guarda, que guardavam a porta da casa do rei.
11 And when the king would enter into the house of the Lord, the shield bearers would arrive and take them, and they would carry them back to their armory.
E succedeu que, entrando o rei na casa do Senhor, vinham os da guarda, e os traziam, e os tornavam a pôr na camara da guarda.
12 Yet truly, because they were humbled, the wrath of the Lord turned away from them, and so they were not utterly destroyed. And indeed, good works were also found in Judah.
E humilhando-se elle, a ira do Senhor se desviou d'elle, para que o não destruisse de todo; porque ainda em Judah havia boas coisas.
13 Therefore, king Rehoboam was strengthened in Jerusalem, and he reigned. He was forty-one years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that the Lord chose out of all the tribes of Israel, so that he might confirm his name there. Now the name of his mother was Naamah, an Ammonite.
Fortificou-se pois o rei Roboão em Jerusalem, e reinou; porque Roboão era da edade de quarenta e um annos, quando commeçou a reinar; e dezesete annos reinou em Jerusalem, a cidade que o Senhor escolheu d'entre todas as tribus d'Israel, para pôr ali o seu nome; e era o nome de sua mãe Naama, ammonita.
14 But he did evil, and he did not prepare his heart so as to seek the Lord.
E fez o que era mal; porquanto não preparou o seu coração para buscar ao Senhor.
15 Truly, the works of Rehoboam, the first and the last, have been written in the books of Shemaiah, the prophet, and of Iddo, the seer, and diligently set forth. And Rehoboam and Jeroboam fought against one another during all their days.
Os successos pois de Roboão, assim os primeiros, como os ultimos, porventura não estão escriptos nos livros de Semaias, o propheta, e de Iddo, o vidente, na relação das genealogias? E havia guerras entre Roboão e Jeroboão em todos os seus dias.
16 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and he was buried in the City of David. And his son, Abijah, reigned in his place.
E Roboão dormiu com seus paes, e foi sepultado na cidade de David: e Abias, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
