2 Chronicles 35
1 Josiah [commanded that the people should] celebrate the Passover Festival to honor Yahweh in Jerusalem. So they slaughtered the lambs for the Passover [Festival] at the end of March.
E Josias fez páscoa ao SENHOR em Jerusalém, e sacrificaram a páscoa aos catorze do mês primeiro.
2 Josiah assigned to the priests the tasks that they should perform at the temple and encouraged them to do their work well.
E pôs aos sacerdotes em seus empregos, e confirmou-os no ministério da casa do SENHOR.
3 The [other] descendants of Levi were the ones who taught all the Israeli people; they had been dedicated to serve Yahweh. Josiah said to them, “Put the Sacred Chest in the temple that [the workers of] David’s son [King] Solomon of Israel built. But [carry it on poles; ] do not carry it on your shoulders. And do your your work well for Yahweh your God and for his Israeli people.
E disse aos levitas que ensinavam a todo Israel, e que estavam dedicados ao SENHOR: Ponde a arca do santuário na casa que edificou Salomão filho de Davi, rei de Israel, para que não a carregueis mais sobre os ombros. Agora servireis ao SENHOR vosso Deus, e a seu povo Israel.
4 Divide yourselves into clans, obeying the instructions that King David and his son Solomon wrote.
Preparai-vos segundo as famílias de vossos pais, por vossas ordens, conforme à prescrição de Davi rei de Israel, e de Salomão seu filho.
5 Then stand in the temple, with one group of the descendants of Levi to help each clan of the people [when they bring their offerings to the temple].
Ficai no santuário segundo a distribuição das famílias de vossos irmãos os filhos do povo, e segundo a divisão da família dos levitas.
6 Slaughter the lambs for the Passover [Festival]. Perform the rituals to cause yourselves to be acceptable to Yahweh for doing this work. Prepare the sacrifices, doing what Yahweh told Moses to tell you that you should do.”
Sacrificai logo a páscoa: e depois de santificar-vos, preparai a vossos irmãos, para que façam conforme à palavra do SENHOR dada por meio de Moisés.
7 Josiah provided [from his own flocks and herds] 30,000 sheep and goats for the Passover sacrifices.
E o rei Josias deu ao povo ovelhas, cordeiros, e cabritos dos rebanhos, em número de trinta mil, e três mil bois, tudo para a páscoa, para todos os que estavam presentes: isto era do patrimônio do rei.
8 His officials also voluntarily contributed animals for the people and the priests and the [other] descendants of Levi. Hilkiah, Zechariah, and Jehiel, the officials who were in charge of the temple, gave to the priests 2,600 lambs and 300 cattle to be sacrifices for the Passover.
Também seus oficiais doaram com generosidade ao povo, e aos sacerdotes e levitas. Hilquias, Zacarias e Jeiel, líderes da casa de Deus, deram aos sacerdotes para fazer a páscoa duas mil e seiscentos, e trezentos bois.
9 And Conaniah along with his [younger] brothers Shemaiah and Nethanel, and Hashabiah, Jeiel, and Jozabad, the leaders of the [other] descendants of Levi, provided 5,000 lambs and 500 cattle for the other descendants of Levi, to be sacrifices for the Passover.
Também Conanias, e Semaías e Natanael, seus irmãos, e Hasabias, Jeiel, e Jozabade, chefes dos levitas, deram aos levitas para os sacrifícios da páscoa cinco mil, e quinhentos bois.
10 Everything [for the Passover] was arranged: The priests and the other descendants of Levi stood in their places in their groups, like the king had commanded.
Prontificado assim o serviço, os sacerdotes se colocaram em seus postos, e também os levitas em suas ordens, conforme ao mandamento do rei.
11 Then they slaughtered the Passover lambs. The priests sprinkled the blood [from the bowls] that were handed to them, while the [other] descendants of Levi removed the skins from the animals.
E sacrificaram a páscoa; e os sacerdotes espargiam o sangue tomado da mão dos levitas, e os levitas tiravam os couros.
12 They set aside the animals to be completely burned on the altar, in order to give them to the various family groups to offer to Yahweh, obeying the instructions that were written in the laws God gave Moses. They did the same thing with the cattle.
E tomaram do holocausto, para dar conforme as repartições pelas famílias dos do povo, a fim de que oferecessem ao SENHOR, segundo está escrito no livro de Moisés; e também tomaram dos bois.
13 Obeying those regulations, they roasted the lambs for the Passover over the fire. And they boiled the [meat of the] sacred offerings in pots and kettles and pans, and served the meat immediately to all the people [who were there].
E assaram a páscoa ao fogo segundo o rito; mas o que havia sido santificado o cozinharam em panelas, em caldeiras, e caldeirões, e repartiram-no o prontamente a todo o povo.
14 After that, they prepared meat for themselves and for the priests, because the priests were busy until nighttime, sacrificing the offerings to be completely burned and burning the fat parts of the offerings. So the [other] descendants of Levi prepared meat for themselves and for the priests, who were descendants of Aaron, [the first Supreme Priest].
E depois prepararam para si e para os sacerdotes; porque os sacerdotes, filhos de Arão, estiveram ocupados até a noite no sacrifício dos holocaustos e das gorduras; portanto, os levitas prepararam para si, e para os sacerdotes filhos de Arão.
15 The musicians, who were descendants of Asaph, stood in their places, as King David, Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun the king’s prophet had commanded. The men who guarded the gates [of the temple] did not need to leave their places, because their fellow descendants of Levi prepared food for them to eat.
Também os cantores filhos de Asafe estavam em seu posto, conforme ao mandamento de Davi, de Asafe e de Hemã, e de Jedutum vidente do rei; também os porteiros estavam a cada porta; e não era necessário que se afastassem de seu ministério, porque seus irmãos, os levitas, preparavam para eles.
16 So on that day everything that needed to done for worshiping Yahweh was done. They celebrated the Passover [Festival], and they presented offerings to be completely burned on the altar, which was what Josiah had commanded.
Assim foi aprontei todo o serviço do SENHOR naquele dia, para fazer a páscoa, e sacrificar os holocaustos sobre o altar do SENHOR, conforme ao mandamento do rei Josias.
17 The Israelis who were there celebrated the Passover [Festival] on that day, and for seven days they celebrated the Festival of [Eating] Unleavened Bread.
E os filhos de Israel que se acharam ali, fizeram a páscoa naquele tempo, e a solenidade dos pães sem levedura, por sete dias.
18 The Passover [Festival] had not been celebrated like that in Israel since the time that the prophet Samuel lived. None of the other kings of Israel had ever celebrated the Passover like Josiah did, along with the priests, the other descendants of Levi, and all [the other people of] Judah and Israel who were there with the people who lived in Jerusalem.
Nunca tal páscoa foi feita em Israel desde os dias de Samuel o profeta; nem nenhum rei de Israel fez páscoa tal como a que fez o rei Josias, e os sacerdotes e levitas, e todo Judá e Israel, os que se acharam ali, juntamente com os moradores de Jerusalém.
19 They celebrated this Passover Festival when Josiah had been ruling for almost 18 years.
Esta páscoa foi celebrada no ano dezoito do rei Josias.
20 After Josiah had done all those things to [restore the worship at] the temple, King Neco of Egypt went [with his army] to attack Carchemish [city] alongside the Euphrates [River], and Josiah marched [with his army] to fight against them.
Depois de todas estas coisas, logo de haver Josias preparado a casa, Neco rei do Egito subiu a fazer guerra em Carquêmis junto a Eufrates; e saiu Josias contra ele.
21 Neco sent some messengers to Josiah, to tell him, “You are the king of Judah, and there is certainly no quarrel between you and me. My army is not attacking you people; we are attacking another army, [the army of Babylonia]. God has told me to hurry. So stop opposing God, who is for me. If you do not stop, God will get rid of you.”
E ele lhe enviou embaixadores, dizendo: Que temos eu e tu, rei de Judá? Eu não venho contra ti hoje, mas sim contra a casa que me faz guerra: e Deus disse que me apressasse. Deixa-te de intrometer-te com Deus, que é comigo, não te destrua.
22 But Josiah would not pay attention to him. Instead, he disguised himself in order to be able to attack [the army of Egypt without anyone recognizing him]. He did not pay any attention to what God had told Neco to say. Instead, he [and his army] went to fight Neco’s army at the plain of Megiddo.
Mas Josias não voltou seu rosto dele, em vez disso disfarçou-se para dar-lhe batalha, e não atendeu às palavras de Neco, que eram da boca de Deus; e veio a dar-lhe a batalha no campo de Megido.
23 Some Egyptian archers shot King Josiah. He told his officers, “Take me away from here because I am badly wounded.”
E os arqueiros atiraram ao rei Josias flechas; e disse o rei a seus servos: Tirai-me daqui, porque estou ferido gravemente.
24 So they took him out of his chariot and put him in another chariot that he had brought with him, and they took him to Jerusalem, where he died. He was buried in the tombs where his ancestors [had been buried], and all [the people of] Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah mourned for him.
Então seus servos o tiraram daquele carro, e puseram-lhe em outro segundo carro que tinha, e levaram-lhe a Jerusalém, e morreu; e sepultaram-lhe nos sepulcros de seus pais. E todo Judá e Jerusalém fez luto por Josias.
25 [The prophet] Jeremiah composed a song to mourn for Josiah, and all the men and women singers in Israel still mourn for Josiah by singing that song. That became a custom in Israel; the words of that song are written in a scroll of funeral songs.
E lamentou Jeremias por Josias, e todos os cantores e cantoras recitam suas lamentações sobre Josias até hoje; e as deram por norma para lamentar em Israel, as quais estão escritas nas Lamentações.
26 A record of the other things that happened while Josiah ruled, from the time he started to rule until he died, including how he faithfully honored God by obeying everything that was written in the laws of Yahweh, is in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel and Judah’.
Os demais dos feitos de Josias, e suas piedosas obras, conforme o que está escrito na lei do SENHOR,
E seus feitos, primeiros e últimos, eis que estão escritos no livro dos reis de Israel e de Judá.
