2 Kings 16
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham king of Judah, began to reign.
No anno dezesete de Peka, filho de Remalias, começou a reinar Achaz, filho de Jothão, rei de Judah.
2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the eyes of Yahweh his God, as David his ancestor had done.
Tinha Achaz vinte annos de edade quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezeseis annos em Jerusalem, e não fez o que era recto aos olhos do Senhor seu Deus, como David, seu pae.
3 Instead, he walked in the way of the kings of Israel; indeed, he made his son pass through the fire, following the detestable practices of the nations, which Yahweh had driven out before the people of Israel.
Porque andou no caminho dos reis de Israel: e até a seu filho fez passar pelo fogo, segundo as abominações dos gentios que o Senhor lançára fóra de diante dos filhos de Israel.
4 He offered sacrifices and burned incense at the high places, on the hilltops, and under every green tree.
Tambem sacrificou, e queimou incenso nos altos e nos outeiros, como tambem debaixo de todo o arvoredo.
5 Then Rezin, king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to attack. They besieged Ahaz, but they could not conquer him.
Então subiu Resin, rei da Syria, com Peka, filho de Remalias, rei de Israel, a Jerusalem, á peleja; e cercaram a Achaz, porém não o poderam vencer.
6 At that time, Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram and drove the men of Judah out of Elath. Then the Arameans came to Elath where they have lived to this day.
N'aquelle mesmo tempo Resin, rei da Syria, restituiu Elath á Syria, e lançou fóra de Elath os judeus: e os syros vieram a Elath, e habitaram ali até ao dia d'hoje.
7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Come up and save me from the hand of the king of Aram and from the hand of the king of Israel, who have attacked me.”
E Achaz enviou mensageiros a Tiglath-pileser, rei da Assyria, dizendo: Eu sou teu servo e teu filho; sobe, e livra-me das mãos do rei da Syria, e das mãos do rei de Israel, que se levantam contra mim.
8 So Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of Yahweh and among the treasures of the king's palace and he sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria.
E tomou Achaz a prata e o oiro que se achou na casa do Senhor e nos thesouros da casa do rei, e mandou um presente ao rei da Assyria.
9 Then the king of Assyria listened to him, and the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, conquered it and carried off its people as prisoners to Kir. He also killed Rezin the king of Aram.
E o rei da Assyria lhe deu ouvidos; pois o rei da Assyria subiu contra Damasco, e tomou-a, e levou-os presos a Kir, e matou a Resin.
10 King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria. At Damascus he saw an altar. He sent to Uriah the priest a model of the altar and its pattern and the design for all the workmanship needed.
Então o rei Achaz foi a Damasco, a encontrar-se com Tiglath-pileser, rei da Assyria, e, vendo um altar que estava em Damasco, o rei Achaz enviou ao sacerdote Urias a similhança do altar, e o modelo, conforme toda a sua feição.
11 So Uriah the priest built an altar to be just like the plans that King Ahaz had sent from Damascus. He finished it before King Ahaz arrived back from Damascus.
E Urias, o sacerdote, edificou um altar conforme tudo o que o rei Achaz tinha ordenado de Damasco; assim o fez o sacerdote Urias, entretanto que o rei Achaz viesse de Damasco.
12 When the king came from Damascus he saw the altar; the king approached the altar and made offerings on it.
Vindo pois o rei de Damasco, o rei viu o altar; e o rei se chegou ao altar, e sacrificou n'elle.
13 He made his burnt offering and his grain offering, poured out his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his fellowship offerings on the altar.
E queimou o seu holocausto, e a sua offerta de manjares, e derramou a sua libação: e espargiu o sangue dos seus sacrificios pacificos n'aquelle altar.
14 The bronze altar that was before Yahweh—he brought it from the front of the temple, from between his altar and the temple of Yahweh and put it on the north side of his altar.
Porém o altar de cobre, que estava perante o Senhor, tirou de diante da casa, de entre o seu altar e a casa do Senhor, e pôl-o ao lado do seu altar, da banda do norte.
15 Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, saying, “On the large altar burn the morning burnt offering and the evening grain offering, and the king's burnt offering and his grain offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their grain offering and their drink offerings. Sprinkle on it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice. But the bronze altar will be for me to consult for guidance.”
E o rei Achaz mandou a Urias o sacerdote, dizendo: No grande altar queima o holocausto de pela manhã, como tambem a offerta de manjares de noite, e o holocausto do rei, e a sua offerta de manjares, e o holocausto de todo o povo da terra, a sua offerta de manjares, e as suas offertas de bebida e todo o sangue dos holocaustos, e todo o sangue dos sacrificios espargirás n'elle; porém o altar de cobre será para mim, para inquirir d'elle.
16 Uriah the priest did just what King Ahaz commanded.
E fez Urias, o sacerdote, conforme tudo quanto o rei Achaz lhe ordenara.
17 Then King Ahaz removed the panels and the basins from the portable stands; he also took down the sea from off the bronze oxen that were under it and put it on a stone pavement.
E o rei Achaz cortou as cintas das bases, e de cima d'ellas tomou a pia, e o mar tirou de sobre os bois de cobre, que estavam debaixo d'elle, e pôl-o sobre um soalho de pedra.
18 He removed the covered walkway for the Sabbath that they had built at the temple, along with the king's entry outside the temple of Yahweh, because of the king of Assyria.
Tambem a coberta do sabbado, que edificaram na casa, e a entrada de fóra do rei, retirou da casa do Senhor, por causa do rei da Assyria.
19 As for the other matters concerning Ahaz and what he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
Ora o mais dos successos de Achaz, e o que fez, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Judah?
20 Ahaz slept with his ancestors and was buried with his ancestors in the city of David. Hezekiah his son became king in his place.
E dormiu Achaz com seus paes, e foi sepultado junto a seus paes, na cidade de David: e Ezequias, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
