1 Reis 15
1 E no decimo oitavo anno do rei Jeroboão, filho de Nebat, Abião começou a reinar sobre Judah.
After Jeroboam had been the king of Israel for almost 18 years, Abijah became the king of Judah.
2 E tres annos reinou em Jerusalem: e era o nome de sua mãe Maaca, filha de Abisalom.
He ruled for three years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Maacah, the granddaughter of [David’s son] Absalom.
3 E andou em todos os peccados de seu pae, que tinha feito antes d'elle: e seu coração não foi inteiro para com o Senhor seu Deus como o coração de David, seu pae.
Abijah committed the same kind of sins that his father had committed. He was not fully dedicated/committed to Yahweh his God, as his grandfather David had been.
4 Mas por amor de David o Senhor lhe deu uma lampada em Jerusalem, levantando a seu filho depois d'elle, e confirmando a Jerusalem.
But, because of [what Yahweh his God had promised to] David, Yahweh gave Abijah a son [MET] to rule in Jerusalem after him, and in order to protect Jerusalem [from their enemies].
5 Porquanto David tinha feito o que parecia recto aos olhos do Senhor, e não se tinha desviado de tudo o que lhe ordenara em todos os dias da sua vida, senão só no negocio de Urias, o hetheo.
Yahweh did that because David had always done what pleased Yahweh and because David had always obeyed Yahweh. The only time when he disobeyed Yahweh was when he caused Uriah [to be killed].
6 E houve guerra entre Roboão e Jeroboão todos os dias da sua vida.
There were wars between [the armies of] Rehoboam and Jeroboam all during the time that Abijah ruled.
7 Quanto ao mais dos successos de Abião, e a tudo quanto fez, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Judah? Tambem houve guerra entre Abião e Jeroboão.
Everything else that Abijah did is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
8 E Abião dormiu com seus paes, e o sepultaram na cidade de David: e Asa, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
Abijah died [EUP] and was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, and his son Asa became king.
9 E no vigesimo anno de Jeroboão, rei d'Israel, começou Asa a reinar em Judah.
After Jeroboam had been the king of Israel for almost 20 years, Asa started to rule Judah.
10 E quarenta e um annos reinou em Jerusalem: e era o nome de sua mãe Maaca, filha de Abisalom.
He ruled in Jerusalem for 41 years. His grandmother was Maacah, the granddaughter of Absalom.
11 E Asa fez o que parecia recto aos olhos do Senhor, como David, seu pae.
Asa did what was pleasing to Yahweh, as his ancestor David had done.
12 Porque tirou da terra os rapazes escandalosos, e tirou todos os idolos que seus paes fizeram.
He got rid of the male prostitutes that were at the places where the people worshiped idols, and he also got rid of all the idols that his ancestors had made.
13 E até a Maaca, sua mãe, removeu para que não fosse rainha, porquanto tinha feito um horrivel idolo a Asera: tambem Asa desfez o seu idolo horrivel, e o queimou junto ao ribeiro de Cedron.
He also removed his grandmother Maacah so that she no longer had influence in the government [because of] being the mother of a previous king. He did that because she had made a disgusting [wooden] statue of the goddess Asherah. Asa [told his workers to] cut down the statue and burned it in the Kidron Valley.
14 Os altos porém se não tiraram: todavia foi o coração de Asa recto para com o Senhor todos os seus dias.
He was not able to destroy all the places where the people worshiped [idols] on the high hills, but he continued to be dedicated/committed to Yahweh his entIre life.
15 E á casa do Senhor trouxe as coisas consagradas de seu pae, e as coisas que elle mesmo consagrara: prata e oiro, e vasos.
He [told his workers to] place in the temple all the items that his father had dedicated to God, and all the gold and silver things that he had dedicated to God.
16 E houve guerra entre Asa e Baása, rei d'Israel, todos os seus dias.
There were wars between [the armies of] Asa and Baasha, the king of Israel, all during the time that they ruled.
17 Porque Baása, rei d'Israel, subiu contra Judah, e edificou a Rama, para que a ninguem deixasse sair nem entrar a Asa, rei de Judah.
Baasha’s army invaded Judah. They captured Ramah [town north of Jerusalem]. Then they started to build a wall around it in order to prevent people from entering or leaving the area in Judah that was ruled by King Asa.
18 Então Asa tomou toda a prata e oiro que ficara nos thesouros da casa do Senhor, e os thesouros da casa do rei, e os entregou nas mãos de seus servos: e o rei Asa os enviou a Benhadad, filho de Tabrimmon, filho de Hezion, rei da Syria, que habitava em Damasco, dizendo:
So Asa [told] his workers [to] take all the silver and gold that was still in the storerooms in the temple and in the palace. He told them to take it to Damascus and give it to King Ben-Hadad who ruled Syria. Ben-Hadad was the son of Tabrimmon and grandson of Hezion. He told the workers to say this to Ben-Hadad:
19 Alliança ha entre mim e ti, entre meu pae e teu pae: vês aqui que te mando um presente, prata e oiro; vae, e annulla a tua alliança com Baása, rei d'Israel, para que se retire de sobre mim
“I want there to be a peace treaty between you and me, like there was between your father and my father. For that reason, I am giving you this silver and gold. So now please cancel the treaty that you made with Baasha, the king of Israel, in order that he will take his soldiers away from attacking mine, [because he will be afraid of your army].”
20 E Benhadad deu ouvidos ao rei Asa, e enviou aos capitães dos exercitos que tinha contra as cidades d'Israel; e feriu a Ijon, e a Dan, e a Abel, de Beth-maaca, e a toda a Chinneroth, com toda a terra de Naphtali.
[So the workers went and gave the message to] Ben-Hadad, [and he] did what Asa suggested. He sent his army commanders [and their soldiers] to attack some of the towns in Israel. They captured Ijon, Dan, Abel-Beth-Maacah, the area near Galilee Lake, and all the land of [the tribe of] Naphtali.
21 E succedeu que, ouvindo-o Baása, deixou de edificar a Rama: e ficou-se em Tirza.
When Baasha heard about that, he [told his soldiers to] stop working at Ramah. He [and his soldiers returned to] Tirzah [and] stayed there.
22 Então o rei Asa fez apregoar por toda a Judah que todos, sem excepção, trouxessem as pedras de Rama, e a sua madeira com que Baása edificara: e com ellas edificou o rei Asa a Geba de Benjamin e a Mispah.
Then King Asa sent a message to all the [people in the] towns in Judah, stating that they all were required to go to Ramah and carry away the stones and timber that Baasha’s soldiers had been using to build a wall around the city. With those stones and timber they fortified Mizpah [city north of Jerusalem], and Geba, [a town] in the territory of the tribe of Benjamin.
23 Quanto ao mais de todos os successos de Asa, e a todo o seu poder, e a tudo quanto fez, e as cidades que edificou, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Judah? Porém, no tempo da sua velhice, padeceu dos pés.
Everything else that Asa did, the armies that his soldiers defeated, and the names of the cities that he caused to be fortified, are [RHQ] written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’. But when Asa became old, he got a disease in his feet.
24 E Asa dormiu com seus paes, e foi sepultado com seus paes na cidade de David, seu pae: e Josaphat, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
He died [EUP] and was buried where his ancestors were buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then his son Jehoshaphat became king.
25 E Nadab, filho de Jeroboão, começou a reinar sobre Israel no anno segundo d'Asa, rei de Judah: e reinou sobre Israel dois annos.
After Asa had been the king of Judah for almost two years, King Jeroboam’s son Nadab started to rule Israel. He ruled for two years.
26 E fez o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor: e andou nos caminhos de seu pae, e no seu peccado com que tinha feito peccar a Israel.
He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil. His behavior was sinful like his father’s behavior had been, and what he did led the people of Israel to sin.
27 E conspirou contra elle Baása, filho d'Ahias, da casa de Issacar, e feriu-o Baása em Gibbethon, que era dos philisteos, quando Nadab e todo o Israel cercavam a Gibbethon.
[A man named] Baasha, from the tribe of Issachar, planned to harm him. He killed Nadab when Nadab and his army had surrounded Gibbethon [city] in the Philistia area.
28 E matou-o Baása no anno terceiro d'Asa, rei de Judah, e reinou em seu logar.
That [DOU] was when Asa had been [the king ruling] Judah for almost three years. Then Baasha became the king of Israel.
29 Succedeu pois que, reinando elle, feriu a toda a casa de Jeroboão: nada de Jeroboão deixou que tivesse folego, até o destruir, conforme á palavra do Senhor que dissera pelo ministerio de seu servo Ahias, o silonita.
As soon as Baasha became king, [he commanded his soldiers to] kill all of Jeroboam’s family. Doing what Yahweh had told the prophet Ahijah from Shiloh would happen, they killed all of Jeroboam’s family. None of them (was left/remained alive).
30 Por causa dos peccados de Jeroboão, o qual peccou, e fez peccar a Israel, e por causa da provocação com que provocara ao Senhor Deus d'Israel.
That happened because Yahweh had become very angry with Jeroboam because of all the sins that Jeroboam had committed, and because of the sins that he had persuaded the people of Israel to commit.
31 Quanto ao mais dos successos de Nadab, e a tudo quanto fez, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Israel?
Everything else that Nadab did is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
32 E houve guerra entre Asa e Baása, rei d'Israel, todos os seus dias.
There were wars between [the armies of] King Asa and King Baasha all the time that they ruled.
33 No anno terceiro d'Asa, rei de Judah, Baása, filho de Ahias, começou a reinar sobre todo o Israel em Tirza, e reinou vinte e quatro annos.
After Asa had been the king of Judah for almost three years, Baasha, the son of Ahijah, started to rule Israel at Tirzah [city]. He ruled for 24 years.
34 E fez o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor: e andou no caminho de Jeroboão, e no seu peccado com que tinha feito peccar a Israel.
He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil, and his behavior was sinful like his father’s had been, and he led the people of Israel to sin.
