< 2 Chronicles 23 >

1 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 Zikri, into covenant with him.
No sétimo ano, Jehoiada se fortaleceu e levou os capitães de centenas-Azarias, filho de Jeroham, Ismael, filho de Jehohanan, Azarias, filho de Obede, Maaséias, filho de Adaías, e Elishaphat, filho de Zichri, para um pacto com ele.
2 They went about in Judah, and gathered the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the heads of ancestral houses of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.
Eles andaram por Judá e reuniram os levitas de todas as cidades de Judá, e os chefes de família dos pais de Israel, e vieram a Jerusalém.
3 All the assembly made a covenant in the house of God with the king. And he showed them the king's son. And he said to them, "Look, the king's son shall reign, as the LORD has spoken concerning the descendants of David.
Toda a assembléia fez um convênio com o rei na casa de Deus. Jeoiada lhes disse: “Eis que o filho do rei deve reinar, como Javé falou a respeito dos filhos de Davi”.
4 This is the thing that you shall do. A third part of you, who come in on the Sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be gatekeepers of the thresholds.
Isto é o que vocês devem fazer: uma terceira parte de vocês, que entram no sábado, dos sacerdotes e dos levitas, serão porteiros dos umbrais.
5 A third part shall be at the king's house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation. All the people shall be in the courts of the LORD's house.
Uma terceira parte estará na casa do rei; e uma terceira parte no portão da fundação. Todo o povo estará nas cortes da casa de Yahweh.
6 But let no one come into the house of the LORD, except the priests, and those who minister of the Levites. They shall come in, for they are holy, but all the people shall follow the LORD's instructions.
Mas que ninguém entre na casa de Iavé, exceto os sacerdotes e os que ministram os levitas. Eles entrarão, pois são santos, mas todo o povo seguirá as instruções de Yahweh.
7 The Levites shall surround the king, every man with his weapons in his hand. Whoever comes into the house, let him be slain. Be with the king when he comes in, and when he goes out."
Os levitas rodearão o rei, cada homem com suas armas na mão. Quem quer que entre na casa, deixe-o ser morto. Esteja com o rei quando ele entrar e quando ele sair”.
8 So the Levites and all Judah did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded: and they took every man his men, those who were to come in on the Sabbath; with those who were to go out on the Sabbath; for Jehoiada the priest did not dismiss the shift.
Então os Levitas e todo Judá fizeram de acordo com tudo o que Jehoiada, o sacerdote, ordenou. Cada um levou seus homens, aqueles que deveriam entrar no sábado, com aqueles que deveriam sair no sábado, pois Jehoiada o padre não dispensou o turno.
9 Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds the spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David's, which were in God's house.
Jehoiada o sacerdote entregou aos capitães de centenas de lanças, baldes e escudos que tinham sido do rei Davi, que estavam na casa de Deus.
10 He set all the people, every man with his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, along by the altar and the house, around the king.
Ele colocou todo o povo, cada homem com sua arma na mão, do lado direito da casa para o lado esquerdo da casa, perto do altar e da casa, ao redor do rei.
11 Then he brought out the king's son, and put the crown on him, and gave him the testimony, and made him king: and Jehoiada and his sons anointed him; and they said, "Long live the king."
Depois trouxeram o filho do rei, colocaram a coroa sobre ele, deram-lhe o pacto e o fizeram rei. Jehoiada e seus filhos o ungiram, e disseram: “Viva o rei”!
12 When Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people into the house of the LORD:
Quando Athaliah ouviu o barulho do povo correndo e elogiando o rei, ela veio até o povo na casa de Yahweh.
13 and she looked, and, look, the king stood by his pillar at the entrance, and the captains and the trumpets by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew trumpets; the singers also played musical instruments, and led the singing of praise. Then Athaliah tore her clothes, and said, "Treason. Treason."
Então ela olhou, e eis que o rei estava ao lado de seu pilar na entrada, com os capitães e os trombeteiros do rei. Todo o povo da terra se regozijou e tocou trombetas. Os cantores também tocaram instrumentos musicais, e lideraram o canto de louvor. Então Athaliah rasgou suas roupas, e disse: “Traição! traição”.
14 Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds who were set over the army, and said to them, "Bring her out between the ranks; and whoever follows her, let him be slain with the sword." For the priest said, "Do not kill her in the LORD's house."
Jehoiada o padre trouxe os capitães de centenas que estavam sobre o exército, e disse-lhes: “Tragam-na para fora entre as fileiras; e quem a seguir, que seja morto com a espada”. Pois o padre disse: “Não a matem na casa de Yahweh”.
15 So they made way for her. She went to the entrance of the Horse Gate to the king's house; and they killed her there.
Então eles abriram caminho para ela. Ela foi para a entrada do portão dos cavalos da casa do rei; e eles a mataram lá.
16 Jehoiada made a covenant between himself, and all the people, and the king, that they should be the LORD's people.
Jehoiada fez um pacto entre ele mesmo, todo o povo e o rei, de que deveriam ser o povo de Yahweh.
17 All the people went to the house of Baal, and broke it down, and broke his altars and his images in pieces, and killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.
Todo o povo foi à casa de Baal, quebrou-a, quebrou seus altares e suas imagens em pedaços, e matou Mattan, o sacerdote de Baal, antes dos altares.
18 Jehoiada appointed the officers of the house of the LORD under the hand of the priests and the Levites, and he appointed the divisions of the priests and the Levites, whom David had assigned 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, according to the order of David.
Jehoiada nomeou os oficiais da casa de Iavé sob a mão dos sacerdotes levíticos, que David distribuiu na casa de Iavé, para oferecer os holocaustos de Iavé, como está escrito na lei de Moisés, com alegria e com cânticos, como David havia ordenado.
19 He set the gatekeepers at the gates of the house of the LORD, that no one who was unclean in anything should enter in.
Ele colocou os porteiros às portas da casa de Iavé, para que ninguém que estivesse impuro em nada entrasse.
20 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 Upper Gate to the king's house, and set the king on the throne of the kingdom.
Ele tomou os capitães de centenas, os nobres, os governadores do povo e todo o povo da terra, e trouxe o rei da casa de Iavé. Eles vieram pelo portão superior da casa do rei, e colocaram o rei no trono do reino.
21 So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet. Athaliah they had slain with the sword.
Assim, todo o povo da terra se alegrou e a cidade ficou quieta. Eles tinham matado Athaliah com a espada.
