< 1 Reis 22 >
1 E estiveram quietos tres annos, não havendo guerra entre Syria e Israel.
And they remained [at rest] three years, there being no war between Syria and Israel.
2 Porém no terceiro anno succedeu que Josaphat, rei de Judah, desceu para o rei de Israel.
And it came to pass in the third year that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
3 E o rei de Israel disse aos seus servos: Não sabeis vós que Ramoth de Gilead é nossa? e nós estamos quietos, sem a tomar da mão do rei da Syria?
And the king of Israel said unto his servants, Know ye that Ramoth in Gil'ad is ours, and we remain idle, without taking it out of the hand of the king of Syria?
4 Então disse a Josaphat: Irás tu comigo á peleja a Ramoth de Gilead? E disse Josaphat ao rei de Israel: Serei como tu, e o meu povo como o teu povo, e os meus cavallos como os teus cavallos.
And he said unto Jehoshaphat, Wilt thou go with me to the battle against Ramoth-gil'ad? And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, I [will be] like thee, my people like thy people, my horses like thy horses.
5 Disse mais Josaphat ao rei d'Israel: Consulta porém primeiro hoje a palavra do Senhor.
And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, today [first] of the word of the Lord.
6 Então o rei de Israel ajuntou os prophetas até quasi quatrocentos homens, e disse-lhes: Irei á peleja contra Ramoth de Gilead, ou deixarei de ir? E elles disseram: Sobe, porque o Senhor a entregará na mão do rei.
Then assembled the king of Israel the prophets, about four hundred men, and said unto them, shall I go against Ramoth-gil'ad to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up; and the Lord will deliver [it] into the hand of the king.
7 Disse porém Josaphat: Não ha aqui ainda algum propheta do Senhor, ao qual possamos consultar?
And Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Eternal besides, that we might inquire of him?
8 Então disse o rei de Israel a Josaphat: Ainda ha um homem por quem podemos consultar ao Senhor; porém eu o aborreço, porque nunca prophetiza de mim bem, mas só mal; este é Micha, filho de Imla. E disse Josaphat: Não falle o rei assim
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, by whom we might inquire of the Lord; but I hate him; for he will never prophesy good concerning me, but evil: [it is] Michayhu the son of Yimlah. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
9 Então o rei de Israel chamou um eunucho, e disse: Traze-me depressa a Micha, filho de Imla.
Then called the king of Israel a certain officer, and said, Hasten hither Michayhu the son of Yimlah.
10 E o rei de Israel e Josaphat, rei de Judah, estavam assentados cada um no seu throno, vestidos de vestiduras reaes, na praça, á entrada da porta de Samaria: e todos os prophetas prophetizavam na sua presença.
And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, dressed in their regal garments, in a threshing-floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.
11 E Zedekias, filho de Chanaana, fez para si uns cornos de ferro, e disse: Assim diz o Senhor: Com estes escornearás aos syros, até de todo os consumir.
And Zedekiah the son of Kena'anah had made himself horns of iron; and he said, Thus hath said the Lord, With these shalt thou push the Syrians, until thou have made an end of them.
12 E todos os prophetas prophetizaram assim, dizendo: Sobe a Ramoth de Gilead, e prosperarás, porque o Senhor a entregará na mão do rei.
And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gil'ad, and prosper; and the Lord will deliver it into the king's hand.
13 E o mensageiro que foi chamar a Micha fallou-lhe, dizendo: Vês aqui que as palavras dos prophetas a uma voz predizem coisas boas para o rei: seja pois a tua palavra como a palavra d'um d'elles, e falla bem.
And the messenger that went to call Michayhu spoke unto him, saying, Behold now, the words of the prophets are with one voice good for the king: do let thy word, I pray thee, be like the word of any one of them, and speak something good.
14 Porém Micha disse: Vive o Senhor, que o que o Senhor me disser isso fallarei.
And Michayhu said, As the Lord liveth, truly, what the Lord may say unto me, that will I speak.
15 E, vindo elle ao rei, o rei lhe disse: Micha, iremos a Ramoth de Gilead á peleja, ou deixaremos de ir? E elle lhe disse: Sobe, e serás prospero; porque o Senhor a entregará na mão do rei
And when he was come to the king, the king said unto him, Michayhu, shall we go against Ramoth-gil'ad to battle, or shall we forbear? And he answered him, Go up, and prosper; and may the Lord deliver it into the hand of the king.
16 E o rei lhe disse: Até quantas vezes te conjurarei, que me não falles senão a verdade em nome do Senhor?
And the king said unto him, How many times yet must I adjure thee that thou shalt not speak to me anything but the truth in the name of the Lord?
17 Então disse elle: Vi a todo o Israel disperso pelos montes, como ovelhas que não teem pastor; e disse o Senhor: Estes não teem senhor; torne cada um em paz para sua casa.
And he said, I saw all Israel scattered over the mountains, as flocks that have not a shepherd: and the Lord said, These have no master; let them return every man to his house in peace.
18 Então o rei de Israel disse a Josaphat: Não te disse eu, que nunca prophetizará de mim bem, senão só mal?
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, Did I not say unto thee that he would not prophesy concerning me any good, but [only] evil?
19 Então disse elle: Ouve pois a palavra do Senhor: Vi ao Senhor assentado sobre o seu throno, e todo o exercito do céu estava junto a elle, á sua mão direita e á sua esquerda.
And he said, Therefore hear thou the word of the Lord, I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right and on his left.
20 E disse o Senhor: Quem induzirá Achab, a que suba, e caia em Ramoth de Gilead? E um dizia d'esta maneira e outro d'outra.
And the Lord said, Who will persuade Achab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gil'ad! And one said, In this manner, and another said, In that manner.
21 Então saiu um espirito, e se apresentou diante do Senhor, e disse: Eu induzirei. E o Senhor lhe disse: Com que?
And there came forth a spirit, and placed himself before the Lord, and said, I will persuade him. And the Lord said unto him, Wherewith?
22 E disse elle: Eu sairei, e serei um espirito de mentira na bocca de todos os seus prophetas. E elle disse: Tu o induzirás, e ainda prevalecerás; sae, e faze assim.
And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou wilt persuade him, and also prevail: go forth, and do so.
23 Agora pois, eis que o Senhor poz o espirito de mentira na bocca de todos estes teus prophetas, e o Senhor fallou mal contra ti.
And now, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets; but the Lord hath spoken evil concerning thee.
24 Então Zedekias, filho de Chanaana, chegou, e feriu a Micha no queixo: e disse: Por onde passou de mim o espirito do Senhor para fallar a ti?
And Zedekiah, the son of Kena'anah, went near, and struck Michayhu on the cheek, and said, Which way passed the Spirit of the Lord away from me to speak with thee!
25 E disse Micha: Eis que o verás n'aquelle mesmo dia, quando entrares de camara em camara, para te esconderes.
And Michayhu said, Behold, thou shalt see it on that day, when thou shalt go into the innermost chamber to hide thyself.
26 Então disse o rei de Israel: Tomae a Micha, e tornae a trazel-o a Amon, o chefe da cidade, e a Joás filho do rei,
And the king of Israel said, Take Michayhu, and carry him back unto Amon the governor of the city, and unto Joash the king's son;
27 E direis: Assim diz o rei: Mettei este homem na casa do carcere, e sustentae-o com o pão de angustia, e com agua de amargura, até que eu venha em paz.
And say, Thus hath said the king, Put this man in the prison, and feed him with sparing bread and with sparing water, until I come home in peace.
28 E disse Micha: Se tu voltares em paz, o Senhor não tem fallado por mim. Disse mais: Ouvi todos os povos!
And Michayhu said, If thou return at all in peace, then hath the Lord not spoken through me. And he said, Hear it, O all ye nations!
29 Assim o rei de Israel e Josaphat, rei de Judah, subiram a Ramoth de Gilead.
So the king of Israel went up with Jehoshaphat the king of Judah to Ramoth-gil'ad.
30 E disse o rei de Israel a Josaphat: Eu me disfarçarei, e entrarei na peleja; tu porém veste os teus vestidos. Disfarçou-se pois o rei de Israel, e entrou na peleja.
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and enter into the battle; but do thou put on thy regal garments. And the king of Israel disguised himself, and went into the battle.
31 E o rei da Syria deu ordem aos chefes dos carros, de que tinha trinta e dois, dizendo: Não pelejareis nem contra pequeno nem contra grande, mas só contra o rei de Israel.
And the king of Syria had commanded the captains over his chariots, thirty-two [in number], saying, Fight neither with a small nor a great one, save only with the king of Israel alone.
32 Succedeu pois que, vendo os chefes dos carros a Josaphat, disseram elles: Certamente este é o rei de Israel. E chegaram-se a elle, para pelejar com elle: porém Josaphat exclamou.
And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, Surely this is the king of Israel. And they turned aside against him to fight: and Jehoshaphat cried out.
33 E succedeu que, vendo os chefes dos carros que não era o rei d'Israel deixaram de seguil-o.
And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots perceived that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from following him.
34 Então um homem entesou o arco, na sua simplicidade, e feriu o rei d'Israel por entre as fivelas e as couraças; então elle disse ao seu carreteiro: Vira a tua mão, e tira-me do exercito, porque estou gravemente ferido.
But a man drew his bow at a venture, and struck the king of Israel between the joints and the armor; wherefore he said unto his chariot-driver. Turn about, and carry me out of the camp; for I am wounded.
35 E a peleja foi crescendo n'aquelle dia, e o rei parou no carro defronte dos syros: porém elle morreu á tarde; e o sangue da ferida corria no fundo do carro.
And the battle increased on that day; and the king was stayed up in his chariot against the Syrians; but he died in the evening: and the blood of the wound flowed down into the hollow of the chariot.
36 E depois do sol posto passou um pregão pelo exercito, dizendo: Cada um para a sua cidade, e cada um para a sua terra!
And there went a proclamation throughout the camp at the going down of the sun, saying, Every man to his city, and every man to his own land.
37 E morreu o rei, e o levaram a Samaria: e sepultaram o rei em Samaria.
So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
38 E, lavando-se o carro no tanque de Samaria, os cães lamberam o seu sangue (ora as prostitutas se lavavam ali), conforme á palavra do Senhor, que tinha dito.
And the chariot was washed out at the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood, as they washed his armor: according to the word of the Lord which he had spoken.
39 Quanto ao mais dos successos d'Achab, e a tudo quanto fez, e á casa de marfim que edificou, e a todas as cidades que edificou, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Israel?
Now the rest of the acts of Achab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built, and all the cities that he built, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
40 Assim dormiu Achab com seus paes; e Achazias, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
So Achab slept with his fathers: and Achazyahu his son became king in his stead.
41 E Josaphat, filho de Asa, começou a reinar sobre Judah no quarto anno d'Achab, rei d'Israel.
And Jehoshaphat the son of Assa became king over Judah in the fourth year of Achab the king of Israel.
42 E era Josaphat da edade de trinta e cinco annos quando começou a reinar; e vinte e cinco annos reinou em Jerusalem: e era o nome de sua mãe Azuba, filha de Silchi.
Jehoshaphat was thirty and five years old when he became king, and twenty and five years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was 'Azubah the daughter of Shilchi.
43 E andou em todos os caminhos de seu pae Asa, não se desviou d'elles, fazendo o que era recto aos olhos do Senhor.
And he walked in all the ways of Assa his father; he turned not aside from it, doing what is right in the eyes of the Lord: Nevertheless the high-places were not removed; for the people still offered, and burnt incense on the high-places.
44 Todavia os altos não se tiraram; ainda o povo sacrificava e queimava incenso nos altos.
And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
45 E Josaphat esteve em paz com o rei de Israel.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his mighty deeds that he showed, and how he warred, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
46 Quanto ao mais dos successos de Josaphat, e ao poder que mostrou, e como guerreou, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Judah?
And the remnant of the sodomites, that had been left in the days of his father Assa, did he put away out of the land.
47 Tambem desterrou da terra o resto dos rapazes escandalosos, que ficaram nos dias de seu pae Asa.
There was then no king in Edom: a deputy was king.
48 Então não havia rei em Edom, porém um vice-rei.
Jehoshaphat made Tharshish-ships to go to Ophir for gold; but they went not; for the ships were wrecked at 'Ezyon-geber.
49 E fez Josaphat navios de Tarsis, para irem a Ophir por causa do oiro; porém não foram, porque os navios se quebraram em Ezion-geber.
Then said Achazyahu the son of Achab unto Jehoshaphat, Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships. But Jehoshaphat would not.
50 Então Achazias, filho de Achab, disse a Josaphat: Vão os meus servos com os teus servos nos navios. Porém Josaphat não quiz.
And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Jehoram his son became king in his stead.
51 E Josaphat dormiu com seus paes, e foi sepultado junto a seus paes, na cidade de David, seu pae: e Jorão, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
Achazyahu the son of Achab became king over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah; and he reigned over Israel two years.
52 E Achazias, filho d'Achab, começou a reinar em Samaria, no anno, dezesete de Josaphat, rei de Judah: e reinou dois annos sobre Israel.
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and walked in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who had induced Israel to sin.
53 E fez o que era mau aos olhos do Senhor; porque andou no caminho de seu pae, como tambem no caminho de sua mãe, e no caminho de Jeroboão, filho de Nebat, que fez peccar a Israel. E serviu a Baal, e se inclinou diante d'elle: e indignou ao Senhor Deus de Israel, conforme a tudo quanto fizera seu pae.
And he served Ba'al, and bowed down to him, and he provoked to anger the Lord the God of Israel, all just as his father had done.
