2 Kings 11
1 When King Ahaziah’s mother Athaliah saw that her son had been killed, she commanded that all the members of Ahaziah’s family [who might become king] must be executed.
Agora, quando Ataliah, mãe de Acazias, viu que seu filho estava morto, levantou-se e destruiu toda a descendência real.
2 So Ahaziah’s sons were all about to be murdered. But Jehosheba, who was King Jehoram’s daughter and Ahaziah’s half-sister, took Ahaziah’s [very young] son Joash and hid him and (his nursemaid/the woman who took care of him) in a bedroom [in the temple]. So he was not killed.
Mas Jeoseba, filha do rei Jorão, irmã de Acazias, levou Joás, filho de Acazias, e o roubou do meio dos filhos do rei que foram mortos, até mesmo ele e sua enfermeira, e os colocou no quarto; e o esconderam de Atalia, para que ele não fosse morto.
3 He stayed with Jehosheba for six years. All during that time, he remained hidden in the temple, while Athaliah ruled [Judah].
Ele esteve com ela escondido na casa de Iavé seis anos, enquanto Atalia reinou sobre a terra.
4 But during the next year, Jehoiada the Supreme Priest summoned the officers who supervised the royal bodyguards and the palace guards. He told them to come to the temple. There he required them to solemnly promise that they would do what he told them to do. And he showed King Ahaziah’s son Joash to them.
No sétimo ano Jehoiada mandou buscar e trazer os capitães sobre centenas de caritas e da guarda, e os trouxe até ele na casa de Iavé; e fez um pacto com eles, e fez um pacto com eles na casa de Iavé, e mostrou-lhes o filho do rei.
5 He gave them these instructions: “There are three groups of you guards. When one group finishes their work on the Sabbath day, [divide yourselves into] three smaller groups. One group must guard the palace.
Ele lhes ordenou, dizendo: “Isto é o que vocês devem fazer: um terço de vocês, que entram no sábado, serão guardas da guarda da casa do rei;
6 Another group must guard at the Sur Gate. The other group must guard at the gate behind the other groups.
um terço de vocês estará no portão Sur; e um terço de vocês no portão atrás da guarda. Portanto, guardareis a guarda da casa e sereis uma barreira.
7 The two groups that are not working on the Sabbath day must guard the temple [to protect little King Joash].
As duas empresas de vocês, mesmo todos os que saírem no sábado, vigiarão a casa de Yahweh ao redor do rei.
8 You must stand around the king wherever he goes, with your weapons in your hands. You must kill anyone who comes near you.”
Cercareis o rei, cada homem com suas armas na mão; e aquele que entrar nas fileiras, deixai-o ser morto. Esteja com o rei quando ele sair, e quando ele entrar”.
9 The officers [who supervised the guards] did what Jehoiada told them to do. Each one brought to Jehoiada the guards that he supervised—the guards who were just finishing their work and those who were about to start their work on the Sabbath day.
Os capitães de mais de centenas fizeram de acordo com tudo o que Jehoiada, o sacerdote, ordenou; e cada um deles levou seus homens, aqueles que deveriam entrar no sábado com aqueles que deveriam sair no sábado, e vieram a Jehoiada, o sacerdote.
10 The priest distributed to the commanders of the guards the spears and shields that had belonged to King David, that were kept/stored in the temple.
O sacerdote entregou aos capitães mais de centenas de lanças e escudos que haviam sido do rei David, que estavam na casa de Yahweh.
11 Then he commanded all the guards to stand in their positions, each one with his sword in his hand, all around the young king.
O guarda ficou de pé, cada homem com suas armas na mão, do lado direito da casa para o lado esquerdo da casa, junto ao altar e à casa, ao redor do rei.
12 Then he brought Joash out. He put the crown on his head and gave him a scroll on which were written the rules [that the kings needed to obey]. Then he poured some olive oil on Joash’s head and proclaimed that he was now the king. The people all clapped their hands and shouted, “We desire/hope that the king will live for many years!”
Então ele trouxe o filho do rei, colocou a coroa sobre ele e lhe deu o pacto; fizeram-no rei e o ungiram; bateram palmas, e disseram: “Viva o rei!
13 When Athaliah heard the noise that was being made by the guards and the other people, she ran to the temple, where the people were gathered.
Quando Atalia ouviu o barulho da guarda e do povo, veio ao povo na casa de Iavé;
14 She saw the new king standing there alongside one of the big pillars, which was the place at the temple where the kings usually stood. She saw that he was surrounded by the temple officers and men blowing trumpets, and that the people were shouting joyfully, and [some of] them were also blowing trumpets. She tore her clothes [to show her distress] and shouted, “You are traitors! You have tricked/deceived me!”
e olhou, e eis que o rei estava junto ao pilar, como era tradição, com os capitães e as trombetas do rei; e todo o povo da terra se alegrou, e tocou trombetas. Então Athaliah rasgou suas roupas e gritou: “Traição! Traição!”.
15 Jehoiada [immediately] said, “Kill her, but do not kill her here at the temple of Yahweh! Take her away between two rows of guards. And kill anyone who tries to rescue her!”
Jehoiada o padre comandou os capitães de centenas que estavam no exército, e disse-lhes: “Tragam-na para fora das fileiras”. Matem qualquer um que a siga com a espada”. Pois o padre disse: “Não a deixem ser assassinada na casa de Yahweh”.
16 [She tried to flee, but] the guards seized her and took her to the palace, to the place where horses enter the courtyard. They killed her there.
Então eles a apreenderam; e ela foi pelo caminho da entrada dos cavalos na casa do rei, e ela foi morta lá.
17 Then Jehoiada made a solemn agreement between the king and the people, that they would always (obey/be faithful to) Yahweh. He also made an agreement requiring the people to be loyal to Joash their king.
Jehoiada fez um pacto entre Javé e o rei e o povo, de que eles deveriam ser o povo de Javé; também entre o rei e o povo.
18 Then all the people of Israel who were there went to the temple of Baal and tore it down. They smashed the altars and the statues of Baal. They also killed Mattan, the priest of Baal, in front of the altars. Jehoiada stationed/put guards at the temple of Yahweh.
Todo o povo da terra foi para a casa de Baal, e a quebrou. Eles quebraram seus altares e suas imagens completamente em pedaços, e mataram Mattan, o sacerdote de Baal, antes dos altares. O padre nomeou oficiais sobre a casa de Yahweh.
19 Then he and the officers of the temple, the officers who supervised the royal bodyguards, and the king’s bodyguards brought the king from the temple to the palace. All the people [followed them]. Joash entered the palace at the Guard Gate and sat down on the throne, [which showed that he was the new king].
Ele tomou os capitães por centenas, e os caritas, e a guarda, e todo o povo da terra; e eles derrubaram o rei da casa de Javé, e vieram pelo caminho do portão da guarda até a casa do rei. Ele se sentou no trono dos reis.
20 All the people of Judah rejoiced. And because Athaliah had been killed, the city was quiet/calm.
Então todo o povo da terra se alegrou, e a cidade ficou quieta. Eles tinham matado Ataliah com a espada na casa do rei.
21 Joash was seven years old when he became the king [of Judah].
Jehoash tinha sete anos de idade quando ele começou a reinar.
