2 Chronicles 23
1 AND in the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the captains of hundreds, Azariah the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, and Azariah the son of Obed, and Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri, into covenant with him.
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 they went about in Judah, and gathered the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the chief of the fathers of Israel, and they came 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 And all the congregation made a covenant with the king in the house of God. And he said unto them, Behold, the king’s son shall reign, as the Lord hath said of 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 This is the thing that ye shall do; A third part of you entering on the sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be porters of the doors;
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 And a third part shall be at the king’s house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation: and all the people shall 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 But let none come into the house of the Lord, save the priests, and they that minister of the Levites; they shall go in, for they are holy: but all the people shall keep the watch 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 And the Levites shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and whosoever else cometh into the house, he shall be put to death: but be ye with the king when he cometh in, and when he goeth out.
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 So the Levites and all Judah did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest had commanded, and took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go out on the sabbath: for Jehoiada the priest dismissed not the courses.
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 Moreover Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David’s, which were in the house of God.
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 set all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side of the temple, along by the altar and the temple, by the king round about.
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 Then they brought out the king’s son, and put upon him the crown, and gave him the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, God save the king.
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 Now when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people into the house 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 she looked, and, behold, the king stood at his pillar at the entering in, and the princes and the trumpets by the king: and all the people of the land rejoiced, and sounded with trumpets, also the singers with instruments of musick, and such as taught to sing praise. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and 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 Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds that were set over the host, and said unto them, Have her forth of the ranges: and whoso followeth her, let him be slain with the sword. For the priest said, Slay her not 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 So they laid hands on her; and when she was come to the entering of the horse gate by the king’s house, they slew her 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 And Jehoiada made a covenant between him, and between all the people, and between the king, that they should be the Lord’s people.
E Joiada fez pacto entre si e todo o povo e o rei, que seriam povo do SENHOR.
17 Then all the people went to the house of Baal, and brake it down, and brake his altars and his images in pieces, and slew 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 Also Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of the Lord by the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of the Lord, to offer the burnt offerings of the Lord, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, as it was ordained by 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 And he set the porters at the gates of the house of the Lord, that none which was unclean in any thing should enter in.
Pôs também porteiros às portas da casa do SENHOR, para que por nenhuma via entrasse nenhum imundo.
20 And he took the captains of hundreds, and the nobles, and the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king from the house of the Lord: and they came through the high gate into the king’s house, and set the king upon the throne of the kingdom.
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 rejoiced: and the city was quiet, after that they had slain Athaliah with the sword.
E todo o povo daquela terra se alegrou; e a cidade ficou em paz, depois de terem matado Atalia à espada.
