< 2 Chronicles 33 >
1 Manasses was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
Tinha Manasses doze annos d'edade, quando começou a reinar, e cincoenta e cinco annos reinou em Jerusalem.
2 And he did evil before the Lord, according to all the abominations of the nations, which the Lord cast out before the children of Israel:
E fez o que era mal aos olhos do Senhor, conforme ás abominações dos gentios que o Senhor lançara fóra de diante dos filhos d'Israel.
3 And he turned, and built again the high places which Ezechias his father had destroyed: and he built altars to Baalim, and made groves, and he adored all the host of heaven, and worshipped them.
Porque tornou a edificar os altos que Ezequias, seu pae, tinha derribado; e levantou altares a Baalim, e fez bosques, e prostrou-se diante de todo o exercito dos céus, e o serviu.
4 He built also altars in the house of the Lord, whereof the Lord had said: In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever.
E edificou altares na casa do Senhor, da qual o Senhor tinha dito: Em Jerusalem estará o meu nome eternamente.
5 And he built them for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
Edificou altares a todo o exercito dos céus, em ambos os pateos da casa do Senhor.
6 And he made his sons to pass through the fire in the valley of Benennom: he observed dreams, followed divinations, gave himself up to magic arts, had with him magicians, and enchanters: and he wrought many evils before the Lord, to provoke him to anger.
Fez elle tambem passar seus filhos pelo fogo no valle do filho de Hinnom, e usou d'adivinhações e d'agoiros, e de feitiçarias, e ordenou adivinhos e encantadores: e fez muitissimo mal aos olhos do Senhor, para o provocar á ira
7 He set also a graven, and a molten statue in the house of God, of which God had said to David, and to Solomon his son: In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever.
Tambem poz uma imagem esculpida, o idolo que tinha feito, na casa de Deus, da qual Deus tinha dito a David e a Salomão seu filho: N'esta casa, em Jerusalem, que escolhi de todas as tribus d'Israel, porei eu o meu nome para sempre;
8 And I will not make the foot of Israel to be removed out of the land which I have delivered to their fathers: yet so if they will take heed to do what I hare commanded them, and all the law, and the ceremonies, and judgments by the hand of Moses.
E nunca mais removerei o pé d'Israel da terra que ordenei a vossos paes; comtanto que tenham cuidado de fazer tudo o que eu lhes ordenei, conforme a toda a lei, e estatutos, e juizos, dados pela mão de Moysés.
9 So Manasses seduced Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to do evil beyond all the nations, which the Lord had destroyed before the face of the children of Israel.
E Manasses tanto fez errar a Judah e aos moradores de Jerusalem, que fizeram peior do que as nações que o Senhor tinha destruido de diante dos filhos d'Israel.
10 And the Lord spoke to him, and to his people, and they would not hearken.
E fallou o Senhor a Manasses e ao seu povo, porém não deram ouvidos.
11 Therefore he brought upon them the captains of the army of the king of the Assyrians: and they took Manasses, and carried him bound with chains and fetters to Babylon.
Pelo que o Senhor trouxe sobre elles os principes do exercito do rei d'Assyria, os quaes prenderam a Manasses entre os espinhaes; e o amarraram com cadeias, e o levaram a Babylonia.
12 And after that he was in distress he prayed to the Lord his God: and did penance exceedingly before the God of his fathers.
E elle, angustiado, orou devéras ao Senhor seu Deus, e humilhou-se muito perante o Deus de seus paes;
13 And he entreated him, and besought him earnestly: and he heard his prayer, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom, and Manasses knew that the Lord was God.
E lhe fez oração, e Deus se aplacou para com elle, e ouviu a sua supplica, e o tornou a trazer a Jerusalem, ao seu reino: então conheceu Manasses que o Senhor era Deus.
14 After this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon in the valley, from the entering in of the fish gate round about to Ophel, and raised it up to a great height: and he appointed captains of the army in all the fenced cities of Juda:
E depois d'isto edificou o muro de fóra da cidade de David, ao occidente de Gihon, no valle, e á entrada da porta do peixe, e á roda, até Ophel, e o levantou mui alto: tambem poz officiaes valentes em todas as cidades fortes de Judah.
15 And he took away the strange gods, and the idol out of the house of the Lord: the altars also which he had made in the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Jerusalem, and he cast them all out of the city.
E tirou da casa do Senhor os deuses estranhos e o idolo, como tambem todos os altares que tinha edificado no monte da casa do Senhor, e em Jerusalem, e os lançou fóra da cidade.
16 And he repaired the altar of the Lord, and sacrificed upon it victims, and peace offerings, and praise: and he commanded Juda to serve the Lord the God of Israel.
E reparou o altar do Senhor, e offereceu sobre elle offertas pacificas e de louvor: e mandou a Judah que servissem ao Senhor Deus d'Israel.
17 Nevertheless the people still sacrificed in the high places to the Lord their God.
Mas ainda o povo sacrificava nos altos, mas sómente ao Senhor seu Deus.
18 But the rest of the acts of Manasses, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the Lord the God of Israel, are contained in the words of the kings of Israel.
O resto pois dos successos de Manasses, e a sua oração ao seu Deus, e as palavras dos videntes que lhe fallaram no nome do Senhor, Deus d'Israel, eis que estão nos successos dos reis d'Israel.
19 His prayer also, and his being heard, and all his sins, and contempt, and places wherein he built high places, and set up groves, and statues before he did penance, are written in the words of Hozai.
E a sua oração, e como Deus se aplacou para com elle, e todo o seu peccado, e a sua transgressão, e os logares onde edificou altos, e poz bosques e imagens d'esculptura, antes que se humilhasse, eis que está escripto nos livros dos videntes.
20 And Manasses slept with his fathers. and they buried him in his house: and his son Amen reigned in his stead.
E dormiu Manasses com seus paes, e o sepultaram em sua casa; Amon, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
21 Amen was two and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
Era Amon de edade de vinte e dois annos, quando começou a reinar, e dois annos reinou em Jerusalem.
22 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, as Manasses his father had done: and he sacrificed to all the idols which Manasses his father had made, and served them.
E fez o que era mal aos olhos do Senhor, como havia feito Manasses, seu pae; porque Amon sacrificou a todas as imagens d'esculptura que Manasses, seu pae, tinha feito, e as serviu.
23 And he did not humble himself before the Lord, as Manasses his father had humbled himself, but committed far greater sins.
Mas não se humilhou perante o Senhor, como Manasses, seu pae, se humilhara: antes multiplicou Amon os seus delictos.
24 And his servants conspired against him, and slew him in his own house.
E conspiraram contra elle os seus servos, e o mataram em sua casa.
25 But the rest of the multitude of the people slew them that had killed Amen, and made Josias his son king in his stead.
Porém o povo da terra feriu a todos quantos conspiraram contra o rei Amon: e o povo da terra fez reinar em seu logar a Josias, seu filho.
