2 Chronicles 23
1 Then in the seventh year, Jehoiada having been strengthened, he took the centurions, namely, Azariah, the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael, the son of Jehohanan, and also Azariah, the son of Obed, and Maaseiah, the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat, the son of Zichri, and he formed a pact with them.
Mas no sétimo ano Joiada se esforçou, e tomou consigo em aliança aos comandantes de cem, Azarias, filho de Jeroão, e a Ismael, filho de Joanã, e a Azarias, filho de Obede, e a Maaseias, filho de Adaías, e a Elisafate, filho de Zicri;
2 And traveling through Judah, they gathered together the Levites from all of the cities of Judah, and the leaders of the families of Israel, and they went to Jerusalem.
Os quais rodeando por Judá, juntaram os levitas de todas as cidades de Judá, e aos príncipes das famílias de Israel, e vieram a Jerusalém.
3 Then the entire multitude formed a pact with the king, in the house of God. And Jehoiada said to them: “Behold, the son of the king shall reign, just as the Lord has said concerning the sons of David.
E toda a multidão fez aliança com o rei na casa de Deus. E ele lhes disse: Eis que o filho do rei, o qual reinará, como o SENHOR o tem dito dos filhos de Davi.
4 Therefore, this is the word that you shall do:
O que haveis de fazer é: a terceira parte de vós, os que entram de semana, estarão de porteiros com os sacerdotes e os levitas;
5 One third part of you who arrive on the Sabbath, priests, and Levites, and porters, shall be at the gates. Truly, one third part shall be at the house of the king. And one third shall be at the gate which is called the Foundation. Yet truly, let all the remainder of the common people be in the courts of the house of the Lord.
E a terceira parte, à casa do rei; e a terceira parte, à porta do fundamento: e todo o povo estará nos pátios da casa do SENHOR.
6 Let no one else enter into the house of the Lord, except the priests, and those from the Levites who are ministering. These alone may enter, for they have been sanctified. And let all the remainder of the common people observe the watches of the Lord.
E ninguém entre na casa do SENHOR, a não ser os sacerdotes e levitas que servem: estes entrarão, porque estão consagrados; e todo o povo fará a guarda do SENHOR.
7 Then let the Levites encircle the king, each one having his weapons. And if anyone else will have entered into the temple, let him be slain. And may they be with the king, both entering and departing.”
E os levitas rodearão ao rei por todas as partes, e cada um terá suas armas na mão; e qualquer um que entrar na casa, morra: e estareis com o rei quando entrar, e quando sair.
8 Then the Levites, and all of Judah, acted in accord with all that the high priest Jehoiada had instructed. And each of them took the men who were under him, and who were arriving by the course of the Sabbath, with those who had fulfilled the Sabbath and who were about to depart. For indeed the high priest Jehoiada had not permitted the companies to depart, which were accustomed to replace one another each week.
E os levitas e todo Judá o fizeram tudo como o havia mandado o sacerdote Joiada: e tomou cada um os seus, os que entravam de semana, e os que saíam o sábado: porque o sacerdote Joiada não deu licença às companhias.
9 And Jehoiada, the priest, gave to the centurions the lances and round shields and crescent shields of king David, which he had dedicated in the house of the Lord.
Deu também o sacerdote Joiada aos comandantes de cem as lanças, paveses e escudos que haviam sido do rei Davi, que estavam na casa de Deus;
10 And he positioned all the people, holding short swords, from the right part of the temple to the left part of the temple, before the altar and the temple, all around the king.
E pôs em ordem a todo o povo, tendo cada um sua espada na mão, desde o canto direito do templo até o esquerdo, até o altar e a casa, em derredor do rei por todas as partes.
11 And they led out the son of the king. And they imposed the diadem on him, and the testimony. And they gave him the law to hold in his hand. And they appointed him as king. Also, the high priest Jehoiada and his sons anointed him. And they prayed for him, and said, “May the king live!”
Então tiraram ao filho do rei, e puseram-lhe a coroa e o testemunho, e fizeram-lhe rei; e Joiada e seus filhos lhe ungiram, dizendo logo: Viva o rei!
12 And when Athaliah had heard it, specifically the sound of running and the praising of the king, she entered to the people in the temple of the Lord.
E quando Atalia ouviu o estrondo da gente que corria, e dos que bendiziam ao rei, veio ao povo à casa do SENHOR;
13 And when she had seen the king standing upon the step at the entrance, and the leaders and companies around him, and all the people of the land rejoicing, and sounding the trumpets, and playing on instruments of various kinds, and the voice of those who were praising, she tore her garments, and she said: “Treason! Treason!”
E olhando, viu ao rei que estava junto a sua coluna à entrada, e os príncipes e os trombetas junto ao rei, e que todo o povo da terra fazia alegrias, e soavam buzinas, e cantavam com instrumentos de música os que sabiam louvar. Então Atalia rasgou seus vestidos, e disse: Traição! Traição!
14 Then the high priest Jehoiada, going out to the centurions and to the leaders of the army, said to them: “Lead her away, beyond the borders of the temple. And let her be put to death outside, with the sword.” And the priest instructed that she should not be killed in the house of the Lord.
E tirando o sacerdote Joiada os comandantes de cem e capitães do exército, disse-lhes: Tirai-a fora do recinto; e o que a seguir, morra à espada: porque o sacerdote havia mandado que não a matassem na casa do SENHOR.
15 And they laid hands on her neck. And when she had entered the gate for the horses at the king’s house, they put her to death there.
Eles, pois, a detiveram, e logo que havia ela passado a entrada da porta dos cavalos da casa do rei, ali a mataram.
16 Then Jehoiada formed a covenant between himself and the entire people, and the king, so that they would be the people of the Lord.
E Joiada fez pacto entre si e todo o povo e o rei, que seriam povo do SENHOR.
17 And so, all the people entered into the house of Baal, and they destroyed it. And they broke apart his altars and idols. Also, they put to death Mattan, the priest of Baal, before the altars.
Depois disto entrou todo o povo no templo de Baal, e derrubaram-no, e também seus altares; e fizeram pedaços suas imagens, e mataram diante dos altares a Matã, sacerdote de Baal.
18 Then Jehoiada appointed overseers in the house of the Lord, under the hands of the priests and Levites, whom David had distributed to the house of the Lord so that they might offer holocausts to the Lord, just as it was written in the law of Moses, with gladness and singing, in accord with the disposition of David.
Logo ordenou Joiada os ofícios na casa do SENHOR sob a mão dos sacerdotes e levitas, segundo Davi os havia distribuído na casa do SENHOR, para oferecer ao SENHOR os holocaustos, como está escrito na lei de Moisés, com alegria e cantares, conforme a ordenação de Davi.
19 Also, he appointed porters at the gates of the house of the Lord, so that whoever was unclean for any reason would not enter.
Pôs também porteiros às portas da casa do SENHOR, para que por nenhuma via entrasse nenhum imundo.
20 And he took the centurions, and the most valiant men, and the leaders of the people, and all the common people of the land, and they set out to descend to the king, from the house of the Lord, and to enter through the middle of the upper gate, to the house of the king. And they placed him on the royal throne.
Tomou depois os comandantes de cem, e os principais, e os que governavam o povo; e a todo o povo da terra, e levou ao rei da casa do SENHOR; e vindo até o meio da porta maior da casa do rei, assentaram ao rei sobre o trono do reino.
21 And all the people of the land were rejoicing, and the city was quieted. But Athaliah was slain with the sword.
E todo o povo daquela terra se alegrou; e a cidade ficou em paz, depois de terem matado Atalia à espada.
