2 Chronicles 31
1 Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the pillars, and cut down the Asherim, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
Feitas todas estas coisas, todos os de Israel que se haviam achado ali, saíram pelas cidades de Judá, e quebraram as estátuas e destruíram os bosques, e derrubaram os altos e os altares por todo Judá e Benjamim, e também em Efraim e Manassés,
2 Hezekiah appointed the divisions of the priests and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of Jehovah.
E definiu Ezequias as repartições dos sacerdotes e dos levitas conforme a suas ordens, cada um segundo seu ofício, os sacerdotes e os levitas para o holocausto e pacíficos, para que ministrassem, para que confessassem e louvassem às portas dos acampamentos do SENHOR.
3 He appointed also the king's portion of his substance for the burnt offerings, for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in the law of Jehovah.
A contribuição do rei de sua riqueza era holocaustos a manhã e tarde, e holocaustos para os sábados, novas luas, e solenidades, como está escrito na lei do SENHOR.
4 Moreover he commanded the people who lived in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to the law of Jehovah.
Mandou também ao povo que habitava em Jerusalém, que dessem a porção aos sacerdotes e levitas, para que se esforçassem na lei do SENHOR.
5 As soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first fruits of grain, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.
E quando este edito foi divulgado, os filhos de Israel deram muitas primícias de grão, vinho, azeite, mel, e de todos os frutos da terra: trouxeram também os dízimos de todas as coisas em abundância.
6 The children of Israel and Judah, who lived in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of cattle and sheep, and the tithe of dedicated things which were consecrated to Jehovah their God, and laid them by heaps.
Também os filhos de Israel e de Judá, que habitavam nas cidades de Judá, deram do mesmo modo os dízimos das vacas e das ovelhas: e trouxeram os dízimos do santificado, das coisas que haviam prometido ao SENHOR seu Deus, e puseram-nos por amontoados.
7 In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
No mês terceiro começaram a fundar aqueles amontoados, e no mês sétimo acabaram.
8 And when Hezekiah and the leaders came and saw the heaps, they blessed Jehovah, and his people Israel.
E Ezequias e os príncipes vieram a ver os amontoados, e bendisseram ao SENHOR, e a seu povo Israel.
9 Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
E perguntou Ezequias aos sacerdotes e aos levitas acerca dos amontoados.
10 Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, "Since people began to bring the offerings into the house of Jehovah, we have eaten and had enough, and have left plenty: for Jehovah has blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store."
E respondeu-lhe Azarias, sumo sacerdote, da casa de Zadoque, e disse: Desde que começaram a trazer a oferta à casa do SENHOR, comemos e nos saciamos, e nos sobrou muito: porque o SENHOR abençoou seu povo, e restou esta abundância.
11 Then Hezekiah commanded them to prepare rooms in the house of Jehovah; and they prepared them.
Então mandou Ezequias que preparassem câmaras na casa do SENHOR; e prepararam-nas.
12 They brought in the offerings and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully: and over them Conaniah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was second.
E puseram as primícias e dízimos e as coisas consagradas, fielmente; e deram cargo disso a Conanias levita, o principal, e Simei seu irmão foi o segundo.
13 Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismakiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the ruler of God's house.
E Jeiel, Azazias, Naate, Asael, Jeremote, Jozabade, Eliel, Ismaquias, Maate, e Benaia, foram capatazes sob a mão de Conanias e de Simei seu irmão, por mandamento do rei Ezequias e de Azarias, príncipe da casa de Deus.
14 Kore the son of Jimnah the Levite, the keeper of the east gate, was over the freewill offerings of God, to distribute the offerings of Jehovah, and the most holy things.
E Coré filho de Imná levita, porteiro ao oriente, tinha cargo dos donativos de Deus, e das ofertas do SENHOR que se davam, e de tudo o que se santificava.
15 Under him were Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, alongside the priests, to faithfully make disbursements to their brothers by divisions, as well to the great as to the small:
E a sua mão estava Éden, Benjamim, Jesua, Semaías, Amarias, e Secanias, nas cidades dos sacerdotes, para dar com fidelidade a seus irmãos suas partes conforme a suas ordens, assim ao maior como ao menor:
16 besides those who were reckoned by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even everyone who entered into the house of Jehovah, as the duty of every day required, for their service in their offices according to their divisions.
A mais dos homens anotados por suas linhagens, de três anos acima, a todos os que entravam na casa do SENHOR, sua porção diária por seu ministério, segundo seus ofícios e classes;
17 This is the enrollment of the priests by their fathers' houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their offices by their divisions;
Também aos que eram contados entre os sacerdotes pelas famílias de seus pais, e aos levitas de idade de vinte anos acima, conforme a seus ofícios e ordens;
18 and those who were reckoned by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation: for in their office of trust they sanctified themselves in holiness.
Assim aos de sua geração com todos seus meninos, e suas mulheres, e seus filhos e filhas, a toda a família; porque com fidelidade se consagravam às coisas santas.
19 Also for the descendants of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the suburbs of their cities, in every city, there were men who were mentioned by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all who were reckoned by genealogy among the Levites.
Do mesmo modo em ordem aos filhos de Arão, sacerdotes, que estavam nos campos de suas cidades, por todas as cidades, os homens nomeados tinham cargo de dar suas porções a todos os homens dos sacerdotes, e a toda a linhagem dos levitas.
20 Hezekiah did so throughout all Judah; and he worked that which was good and right and faithful before Jehovah his God.
De esta maneira fez Ezequias em todo Judá: e executou o que era bom, correto, e verdadeiro, diante do SENHOR seu Deus.
21 In every work that he began in the service of God's house, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
Em tudo quanto começou no serviço da casa de Deus, e na lei e mandamentos, buscou a seu Deus, e o fez de todo coração, e foi próspero.
