2 Chronicles 12

1 And it came to pass, when the kingdom of Rehoboam was established, and he was strong, that he forsook the law of the LORD, and all Israel with him.

E quando Roboão havia confirmado o reino, deixou a lei do SENHOR, e com ele todo Israel.

2 And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had dealt treacherously with the LORD,

E no quinto ano do rei Roboão subiu Sisaque rei do Egito contra Jerusalém, (porquanto se haviam rebelado contra o SENHOR, )

3 with twelve hundred chariots, and threescore thousand horsemen; and the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt; the Lubim, the Sukkiim, and the Ethiopians.

Com mil e duzentos carros, e com sessenta mil cavaleiros: mas o povo que vinha com ele do Egito, não tinha número; a saber, de líbios, suquitas, e etíopes.

4 And he took the fortified cities which pertained to Judah, and came unto Jerusalem.

E tomou as cidades fortes de Judá, e chegou até Jerusalém.

5 Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam, and to the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them: 'Thus saith the LORD: Ye have forsaken Me, therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak.'

Então veio Semaías profeta a Roboão e aos príncipes de Judá, que estavam reunidos em Jerusalém por causa de Sisaque, e disse-lhes: Assim disse o SENHOR: Vós me deixastes, e eu também vos deixei em mãos de Sisaque.

6 Then the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said: 'The LORD is righteous.'

E os príncipes de Israel e o rei se humilharam, e disseram: Justo é o SENHOR.

7 And when the LORD saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying: 'They have humbled themselves; I will not destroy them; but I will grant them some deliverance, and My wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.

E quando viu o SENHOR que se haviam humilhado, foi palavra do SENHOR a Semaías, dizendo: Humilharam-se; não os destruirei; antes os salvarei em breve, e não se derramará minha ira contra Jerusalém por mão de Sisaque.

8 Nevertheless they shall be his servants; that they may know My service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.'

Porém serão seus servos; para que saibam que é servir a mim, e servir aos reinos das nações.

9 So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house; he took all away; he took away also the shields of gold which Solomon had made.

Subiu, pois, Sisaque, rei do Egito a Jerusalém, e tomou os tesouros da casa do SENHOR, e os tesouros da casa do rei; tudo o levou: e tomou os paveses de ouro que Salomão havia feito.

10 And king Rehoboam made in their stead shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, that kept the door of the king's house.

E em lugar deles fez o rei Roboão paveses de bronze, e entregou-os em mãos dos chefes da guarda, os quais guardavam a entrada da casa do rei.

11 And it was so, that as oft as the king entered into the house of the LORD, the guard came and bore them, and brought them back into the guard-chamber.

E quando o rei ia à casa do SENHOR, vinham os da guarda, e traziam-nos, e depois os voltavam à câmara da guarda.

12 And when he humbled himself, the anger of the LORD turned from him, that He would not destroy him altogether; and moreover in Judah there were good things found.

E quando ele se humilhou, a ira do SENHOR se separou dele, para não destruí-lo de todo: e também em Judá as coisas foram bem.

13 So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned; for Rehoboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put His name there; and his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.

Fortificou-se, pois Roboão, e reinou em Jerusalém: e era Roboão de quarenta e um anos quando começou a reinar, e dezessete anos reinou em Jerusalém, cidade que escolheu o SENHOR de todas as tribos de Israel, para pôr nela seu nome. E o nome de sua mãe foi Naamá, amonita.

14 And he did that which was evil, because he set not his heart to seek the LORD.

E fez o mal, porque não dispôs seu coração para buscar ao SENHOR.

15 Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, after the manner of genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.

E as coisas de Roboão, primeiras e últimas, não estão escritas nos livros de Semaías profeta e de Ido vidente, no registro das linhagens? E entre Roboão e Jeroboão havia perpétua guerra.

16 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David; and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.

E descansou Roboão com seus pais, e foi sepultado na cidade de Davi: e reinou em seu lugar Abias seu filho.
