2 Kings 25
1 Then it happened that, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, he and his entire army, arrived against Jerusalem. And they encircled it, and they constructed fortifications all around it.
E succedeu que, no nono anno do seu reinado, no mez decimo, aos dez do mez, Nabucodonosor, rei de Babylonia, veiu contra Jerusalem, elle e todo o seu exercito, e se acampou contra ella, e levantaram contra ella tranqueiras em redor.
2 And the city was enclosed and besieged, even until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah,
E a cidade foi sitiada até ao undecimo anno do rei Zedekias.
3 on the ninth day of the month. And a famine prevailed in the city; neither was there bread for the people of the land.
Aos nove do mez quarto, quando a cidade se via apertada da fome, nem havia pão para o povo da terra.
4 And the city was breached. And all the men of war fled in the night along the way of the gate which is between the double wall at the garden of the king. Now the Chaldeans were besieging the city on all sides. And so Zedekiah fled along the way which leads to the plains of the wilderness.
Então a cidade foi arrombada, e todos os homens de guerra fugiram de noite pelo caminho da porta, entre os dois muros que estavam junto ao jardim do rei (porque os chaldeos estavam contra a cidade em redor), e o rei se foi pelo caminho da campina.
5 And the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king, and they overtook him in the plains of Jericho. And all the warriors who were with him were dispersed, and they abandoned him.
Porém o exercito dos chaldeos perseguiu o rei, e o alcançaram nas campinas de Jericó: e todo o seu exercito se dispersou d'elle.
6 Therefore, having apprehended him, they led the king to the king of Babylon at Riblah. And he was speaking with him in judgment.
E tomaram o rei, e o fizeram subir ao rei de Babylonia, a Ribla: e procederam contra elle.
7 Then he killed the sons of Zedekiah before him, and he dug out his eyes, and he bound him with chains, and he led him away to Babylon.
E aos filhos de Zedekias degolaram diante dos seus olhos: e vasaram os olhos a Zedekias, e o ataram com duas cadeias de bronze, e o levaram a Babylonia.
8 In the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, the same is the nineteenth year of the king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the army, a servant of the king of Babylon, went into Jerusalem.
E no quinto mez no setimo dia do mez (este era o anno decimo nono de Nabucodonosor rei de Babylonia), veiu Nebuzaradan, capitão da guarda, servo do rei de Babylonia, a Jerusalem,
9 And he set fire to the house of the Lord, and to the house of the king. And the houses of Jerusalem, and every great house, he burned with fire.
E queimou a casa do Senhor e a casa do rei, como tambem todas as casas de Jerusalem, e todas as casas dos grandes, queimou.
10 And the entire army of the Chaldeans, which was with the leader of the military, tore down the walls of Jerusalem all around.
E todo o exercito dos chaldeos, que estava com o capitão da guarda, derribou os muros em redor de Jerusalem.
11 Then Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, carried away the rest of the people, who had remained in the city, and the fugitives, who had fled over to the king of Babylon, and the remnant of the common people.
E o mais do povo que deixaram ficar na cidade, e os rebeldes que se renderam ao rei de Babylonia, e o mais da multidão, Nebuzaradan, o capitão da guarda, levou presos.
12 But he left behind some vinedressers and farmers from the poor of the land.
Porém dos mais pobres da terra deixou o capitão da guarda ficar alguns para vinheiros e para lavradores.
13 Now the pillars of brass which were in the temple of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass, which was in the house of the Lord, the Chaldeans broke apart. And they took all the brass to Babylon.
Quebraram mais os chaldeos as columnas de cobre que estavam na casa do Senhor, como tambem as bases e o mar de cobre que estavam na casa do Senhor: e levaram o seu bronze para Babylonia.
14 Also, they took away the cooking pots of brass, and the scoops, and the forks, and the cups, and the little mortars, and all the articles of brass with which they were ministering.
Tambem tomaram as caldeiras, e as pás, e os apagadores, e os perfumadores, e todos os vasos de cobre, com que se ministrava.
15 And the leader of the military even took away the censers and the bowls, whatever was of gold for the gold, and whatever was of silver for the silver,
Tambem o capitão da guarda tomou os braseiros, e as bacias, o que era de puro oiro, em oiro e o que era de prata, em prata.
16 and also the two pillars, the one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made for the temple of the Lord. The brass of all these items was beyond measure.
As duas columnas, um mar, e as bases, que Salomão fizera para a casa do Senhor: o cobre de todos estes vasos não tinha peso.
17 One pillar had eighteen cubits in height. And the head of brass upon it was three cubits in height. And the network and pomegranates upon the head of the pillar were all of brass. And the second pillar had a similar adornment.
A altura d'uma columna era de dezoito covados, e sobre ella havia um capitel de cobre, e de altura tinha o capitel tres covados; e a rede, e as romãs em roda do capitel, tudo era de cobre; e similhante a esta era a outra columna com a rede.
18 Also, the leader of the military took away Seraiah, the chief priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and three doorkeepers,
Tambem o capitão da guarda tomou a Seraias, primeiro sacerdote, e a Zephanias segundo sacerdote, e aos tres guardas do umbral da porta.
19 and from the city, one eunuch, who was in charge of the men of war, and five men out of those who had stood before the king, whom he found in the city, and Sopher, the leader of the army who trained the young soldiers from the people of the land, and sixty men from the common people, who had been found in the city.
E da cidade tomou a um eunucho, que tinha cargo da gente de guerra, e a cinco homens dos que viam a face do rei, e se acharam na cidade, como tambem ao escrivão-mór do exercito, que registrava o povo da terra para a guerra, e a sessenta homens do povo da terra, que se acharam na cidade.
20 Taking them, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, led them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
E tomando-os Nebuzaradan, o capitão da guarda, os trouxe ao rei de Babylonia, a Ribla.
21 And the king of Babylon struck them and killed them at Riblah, in the land of Hamath. And Judah was taken away from his land.
E o rei de Babylonia os feriu e os matou em Ribla, na terra de Hamath: e Judah foi levado preso para fóra da sua terra.
22 But over the people who had remained in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, had permitted, he appointed as ruler Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan.
Porém, quanto ao povo que ficava na terra de Judah, e Nabucodonosor, rei de Babylonia, deixou ficar, poz sobre elle por maioral a Gedalias, filho de Ahikam, filho de Saphan.
23 And when all the commanders of the military had heard this, they and the men who were with them, specifically, that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah, they went to Gedaliah at Mizpah: Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan, the son of Kareah, and Seraiah, the son of Tanhumeth, the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah, the son of a Maacathite, they and their companions.
Ouvindo pois os capitães dos exercitos, elles e os seus homens, que o rei de Babylonia puzera a Gedalias por maioral, vieram a Gedalias, a Mispah, a saber: Ishmael, filho de Nethanias, e Johanan, filho de Kareath, e Seraias, filho de Tanhumeth, o netophatita, e Jazanias, filho do Maacatita, elles e os seus homens.
24 And Gedaliah swore to them and to their companions, saying: “Do not be afraid to serve the Chaldeans. Remain in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.”
E Gedalias jurou a elles e aos seus homens, e lhes disse: Não temaes ser servos dos chaldeos: ficae na terra, e servi ao rei de Babylonia, e bem vos irá.
25 But it happened that, in the seventh month, Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of royal offspring, and ten men with him, went and struck Gedaliah, who then died, along with the Jews and the Chaldeans who were with him at Mizpah.
Succedeu, porém, que, no setimo mez, veiu Ishmael, filho de Nethanias, o filho de Elisama, da semente real, e dez homens com elle, e feriram a Gedalias, e elle morreu, como tambem aos judeos, e aos chaldeos que estavam com elle em Mispah.
26 And all the people, from small to great, and the leaders of the military, rising up, went away to Egypt, fearing the Chaldeans.
Então todo o povo se levantou, desde o mais pequeno até ao maior, como tambem os capitães dos exercitos, e vieram ao Egypto, porque temiam os chaldeos.
27 Truly, it happened that, in the thirty-seventh year of the transmigration of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, Evilmerodach, the king of Babylon, in the year when he had begun to reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, from prison.
Depois d'isto succedeu que, no anno trinta e sete do captiveiro de Joaquim, rei de Judah, no mez duodecimo, aos vinte e sete do mez, Evil-merodac, rei de Babylonia, levantou, no anno em que reinou, a cabeça de Joaquim, rei de Judah, da casa da prisão.
28 And he spoke kindly to him. And he set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him at Babylon.
E lhe fallou benignamente: e poz o seu throno acima do throno dos reis que estavam com elle em Babylonia.
29 And he changed his garments that he had worn in prison. And he ate bread before him always, during all the days of his life.
E lhe mudou os vestidos da prisão, e de continuo comeu pão na sua presença todos os dias da sua vida.
30 Also, he appointed to him an allowance without ceasing, which also was given to him by the king, for each day, during all the days of his life.
E, quanto á sua subsistencia, pelo rei lhe foi dada subsistencia continua, a porção de cada dia no seu dia, todos os dias da sua vida.
