2 Kings 1
1 Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab.
E depois da morte de Achab, Moab se rebellou contra Israel.
2 Then Ahaziah fell down through the lattice in his upper chamber in Samaria, and was injured. So he sent for messengers and said to them, “Go, ask Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I will recover from this injury.”
E caiu Achazias pelas grades d'um quarto alto, que tinha em Samaria, e adoeceu: e enviou mensageiros, e disse-lhes: Ide, e perguntae a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron, se sararei d'esta doença.
3 But the angel of Yahweh said to Elijah the Tishbite, “Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and ask them, 'Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are going to consult with Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron?
Mas o anjo do Senhor disse a Elias tesbita: Levanta-te, sobe para encontrar-te com os mensageiros do rei de Samaria: e dize-lhes: Porventura não ha Deus em Israel, que vades consultar a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron?
4 Therefore Yahweh says, “You will not come down from the bed to where you have gone up; instead, you will certainly die.”'” Then Elijah left.
E por isso assim diz o Senhor; Da cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas sem falta morrerás. Então Elias partiu.
5 When the messengers returned to Ahaziah, he said to them, “Why have you returned?”
E os mensageiros voltaram para elle; e elle lhes disse: Que ha, que voltastes?
6 They said to him, “A man came to meet us who said to us, 'Go back to the king who sent you, and say to him, “Yahweh says this: 'Is it because there is no God in Israel that you sent men to consult with Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not come down from the bed to which you have gone up; instead, you will certainly die.'”'”
E elles lhe disseram: Um homem nos saiu ao encontro, e nos disse: Ide, voltae para o rei que vos mandou, e dizei-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Porventura não ha Deus em Israel, para que mandes consultar a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron? Portanto da cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas sem falta morrerás.
7 Ahaziah said to his messengers, “What sort of man was he, the one who came up to meet you and said these words to you?”
E elle lhes disse: Qual era o trajo do homem que vos veiu ao encontro e vos fallou estas palavras?
8 They answered him, “He wore a garment made of hair and had a leather belt wrapped around his waist.” So the king replied, “That is Elijah the Tishbite.”
E elles lhe disseram: Um homem era vestido de pellos, e com os lombos cingidos d'um cinto de coiro. Então disse elle: É Elias, o tesbita.
9 Then the king sent a captain with fifty soldiers to Elijah. The captain went up to Elijah where he was sitting on the top of a hill. The captain spoke to him, “You, man of God, the king has said, 'Come down.'”
Então lhe enviou um capitão de cincoenta: e, subindo a elle, (porque eis que estava assentado no cume do monte), disse-lhe: Homem de Deus, o rei diz: Desce.
10 Elijah answered and said to the captain, “If I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men.” Then fire came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty men.
Mas Elias respondeu, e disse ao capitão de cincoenta: Se eu pois sou homem de Deus, desça fogo do céu, e te consuma a ti e aos teus cincoenta. Então fogo desceu do céu, e o consumiu a elle e aos seus cincoenta.
11 Again King Ahaziah sent to Elijah another captain with fifty soldiers. This captain also said to Elijah, “You, man of God, the king says, 'Come down quickly.'”
E tornou a enviar-lhe outro capitão de cincoenta, com os seus cincoenta; este lhe fallou, e disse: Homem de Deus, assim diz o rei: Desce depressa.
12 Elijah answered and said to them, “If I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men.” Again the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty men.
E respondeu Elias, e disse-lhe: Se eu sou homem de Deus, desça fogo do céu, e te consuma a ti e aos teus cincoenta. Então fogo de Deus desceu do céu, e o consumiu a elle e aos seus cincoenta.
13 Yet again the king sent a third group of fifty warriors. This captain went up, fell on his knees before Elijah, and implored him and said to him, “You, man of God, I ask you, let my life and the life of these fifty servants of yours be precious in your sight.
E tornou a enviar outro capitão dos terceiros cincoenta, com os seus cincoenta: então subiu o capitão de cincoenta, e veiu, e poz-se de joelhos diante de Elias, e supplicou-lhe, e disse-lhe: Homem de Deus, seja, peço-te, preciosa aos teus olhos a minha vida, e a vida d'estes cincoenta teus servos.
14 Indeed, fire came down from heaven and consumed the first two captains with their men, but now let my life be precious in your sight.”
Eis que fogo desceu do céu, e consumiu aquelles dois primeiros capitães de cincoenta, com os seus cincoenta: porém agora seja preciosa aos teus olhos a minha vida.
15 The angel of Yahweh said to Elijah, “Go down with him. Do not be afraid of him.” So Elijah arose and went down with him to the king.
Então o anjo do Senhor disse a Elias: Desce com este, não temas. E levantou-se, e desceu com elle ao rei.
16 Later Elijah said to Ahaziah, “This is what Yahweh says, 'You have sent messengers to consult with Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron. Is it because there is no God in Israel from whom you can ask for information? So now, you will not come down from the bed where you have gone up; you will certainly die.'”
E disse-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Porque enviaste mensageiros a consultar a Baal-zebub, deus d'Ekron? Porventura é porque não ha Deus em Israel, para consultar a sua palavra? portanto d'esta cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas certamente morrerás.
17 So King Ahaziah died according to the word of Yahweh that Elijah had spoken. Joram began to reign in his place, in the second year of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, because Ahaziah had no son.
Assim pois morreu, conforme á palavra do Senhor, que Elias fallara; e Jorão começou a reinar no seu logar no anno segundo de Jehorão, filho de Josaphat rei de Judah: porquanto não tinha filho.
18 As for the other matters concerning Ahaziah, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?
O mais dos feitos de Achazias, que tinha feito, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Israel?
