2 Kings 1
1 After Ahab died, Moab rebelled against Israel.
E depois da morte de Achab, Moab se rebellou contra Israel.
2 Ahaziah had fallen through the lattice-work of his upper room in Samaria and had hurt himself badly. So he sent out messengers, telling them: “Go and ask Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I will get better from this injury.”
E caiu Achazias pelas grades d'um quarto alto, que tinha em Samaria, e adoeceu: e enviou mensageiros, e disse-lhes: Ide, e perguntae a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron, se sararei d'esta doença.
3 But the angel of the Lord told Elijah the Tishbite, “Go and meet the messengers of the king of Samaria and ask them, ‘Is it because there's no God in Israel that you're going to ask advice from Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron?’
Mas o anjo do Senhor disse a Elias tesbita: Levanta-te, sobe para encontrar-te com os mensageiros do rei de Samaria: e dize-lhes: Porventura não ha Deus em Israel, que vades consultar a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron?
4 So this is the Lord's answer: ‘You will not leave the bed on which you are lying. You're definitely going to die.’” And Elijah left.
E por isso assim diz o Senhor; Da cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas sem falta morrerás. Então Elias partiu.
5 The messengers returned to the king, and he asked them, “Why have you come back?”
E os mensageiros voltaram para elle; e elle lhes disse: Que ha, que voltastes?
6 “A man came and met us,” they replied. “He told us, ‘Go back to the king who sent you, and tell him, This is what the Lord says: Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are sending to ask advice from Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? As a result you will not leave the bed on which you are lying. You're definitely going to die.’”
E elles lhe disseram: Um homem nos saiu ao encontro, e nos disse: Ide, voltae para o rei que vos mandou, e dizei-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Porventura não ha Deus em Israel, para que mandes consultar a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron? Portanto da cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas sem falta morrerás.
7 “What was he like, this man who met you and told you all this?” the king asked.
E elle lhes disse: Qual era o trajo do homem que vos veiu ao encontro e vos fallou estas palavras?
8 “He was a hairy man wearing a leather belt around his waist,” they replied. “It's Elijah the Tishbite,” said the king.
E elles lhe disseram: Um homem era vestido de pellos, e com os lombos cingidos d'um cinto de coiro. Então disse elle: É Elias, o tesbita.
9 Then the king sent an army captain with fifty men to Elijah. The captain went up to Elijah, who was sitting on the top of a hill, and told him, “Man of God, the king orders you, ‘Come down!’”
Então lhe enviou um capitão de cincoenta: e, subindo a elle, (porque eis que estava assentado no cume do monte), disse-lhe: Homem de Deus, o rei diz: Desce.
10 Elijah replied to the captain, “If I am a man of God, then let fire fall from heaven and burn up you and your fifty men.” Fire fell from heaven and burned up the captain and his men.
Mas Elias respondeu, e disse ao capitão de cincoenta: Se eu pois sou homem de Deus, desça fogo do céu, e te consuma a ti e aos teus cincoenta. Então fogo desceu do céu, e o consumiu a elle e aos seus cincoenta.
11 So the king sent another captain with his fifty men to Elijah. The captain said to Elijah, “Man of God, the king orders you, Come down immediately!”
E tornou a enviar-lhe outro capitão de cincoenta, com os seus cincoenta; este lhe fallou, e disse: Homem de Deus, assim diz o rei: Desce depressa.
12 Elijah replied to the captain, “If I am a man of God, then let fire fall from heaven and burn up you and your fifty men.” Fire fell from heaven and burned up the captain and his men.
E respondeu Elias, e disse-lhe: Se eu sou homem de Deus, desça fogo do céu, e te consuma a ti e aos teus cincoenta. Então fogo de Deus desceu do céu, e o consumiu a elle e aos seus cincoenta.
13 So the king sent a third captain with his fifty men. The third captain went up, kneeled before Elijah, and pleaded with him, “Man of God, please value my life and the lives of these fifty men.
E tornou a enviar outro capitão dos terceiros cincoenta, com os seus cincoenta: então subiu o capitão de cincoenta, e veiu, e poz-se de joelhos diante de Elias, e supplicou-lhe, e disse-lhe: Homem de Deus, seja, peço-te, preciosa aos teus olhos a minha vida, e a vida d'estes cincoenta teus servos.
14 Yes, fire has fallen from heaven and burned up the first two captains of fifty, along with all their men. But now please value my life!”
Eis que fogo desceu do céu, e consumiu aquelles dois primeiros capitães de cincoenta, com os seus cincoenta: porém agora seja preciosa aos teus olhos a minha vida.
15 Then the angel of the Lord told Elijah, “Go down with him. You don't have to be afraid of him.” So Elijah got up and went down with him to the king.
Então o anjo do Senhor disse a Elias: Desce com este, não temas. E levantou-se, e desceu com elle ao rei.
16 Elijah told the king, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Is it because there's no God in Israel for you to consult that you have sent messengers to ask advice of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? As a result you will not leave the bed on which you are lying. You're definitely going to die.”
E disse-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Porque enviaste mensageiros a consultar a Baal-zebub, deus d'Ekron? Porventura é porque não ha Deus em Israel, para consultar a sua palavra? portanto d'esta cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas certamente morrerás.
17 Ahaziah died just as the Lord had said through Elijah. Because he had no son, Joram succeeded him as king in the second year of the reign of Jehoram, son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah.
Assim pois morreu, conforme á palavra do Senhor, que Elias fallara; e Jorão começou a reinar no seu logar no anno segundo de Jehorão, filho de Josaphat rei de Judah: porquanto não tinha filho.
18 The rest of what happened in Ahaziah's reign and what he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
O mais dos feitos de Achazias, que tinha feito, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Israel?
