2 Crônicas 12

1 Succedeu pois que, havendo Roboão confirmado o reino, e havendo-se fortalecido, deixou a lei do Senhor, e com elle todo o Israel.

AND it came to pass, when Rehoboam had established the kingdom, and had strengthened himself, he forsook the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him.

2 Pelo que succedeu, no anno quinto do rei Roboão, que Sisak, rei do Egypto, subiu contra Jerusalem (porque tinham transgredido contra o Senhor)

And it came to pass, that in the fifth year of king Rehoboam Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgressed against the Lord,

3 Com mil e duzentos carros, e com sessenta mil cavalleiros; e era innumeravel a gente que vinha com elle do Egypto, de lybios, suchitas e ethiopes.

With twelve hundred chariots, and threescore thousand horsemen: and the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt; the Lubims, the Sukkiims, and the Ethiopians.

4 E tomou as cidades fortes, que Judah tinha; e veiu a Jerusalem.

And he took the fenced cities which pertained to Judah, and came to Jerusalem.

5 Então veiu Semaias, o propheta, a Roboão e aos principes de Judah que se ajuntaram em Jerusalem por causa de Sisak, e disse-lhes: Assim diz o Senhor: Vós me deixastes a mim, pelo que eu tambem vos deixei na mão de Sisak.

Then came Shemaiah the prophet to Rehoboam, and to the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them, Thus saith the Lord, Ye have forsaken me, and therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak.

6 Então se humilharam os principes d'Israel, e o rei, e disseram: O Senhor é justo.

Whereupon the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, The Lord is righteous.

7 Vendo pois o Senhor que se humilhavam, veiu a palavra do Senhor a Semaias, dizendo: Humilharam-se, não os destruirei; antes em breve lhes darei logar d'escaparem, para que o meu furor se não derrame sobre Jerusalem, por mão de Sisak.

And when the Lord saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves; therefore I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance; and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.

8 Porém serão seus servos: para que conheçam a differença da minha servidão e da servidão dos reinos da terra

Nevertheless they shall be his servants; that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.

9 Subiu pois Sisak, rei do Egypto, contra Jerusalem, e tomou os thesouros da casa do Senhor, e os thesouros da casa do rei; levou tudo: tambem tomou os escudos d'oiro, que Salomão fizera.

So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king’s house; he took all: he carried away also the shields of gold which Solomon had made.

10 E fez o rei Roboão em logar d'elles escudos de cobre, e os entregou na mão dos capitães da guarda, que guardavam a porta da casa do rei.

Instead of which king Rehoboam made shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the chief of the guard, that kept the entrance of the king’s house.

11 E succedeu que, entrando o rei na casa do Senhor, vinham os da guarda, e os traziam, e os tornavam a pôr na camara da guarda.

And when the king entered into the house of the Lord, the guard came and fetched them, and brought them again into the guard chamber.

12 E humilhando-se elle, a ira do Senhor se desviou d'elle, para que o não destruisse de todo; porque ainda em Judah havia boas coisas.

And when he humbled himself, the wrath of the Lord turned from him, that he would not destroy him altogether: and also in Judah things went well.

13 Fortificou-se pois o rei Roboão em Jerusalem, e reinou; porque Roboão era da edade de quarenta e um annos, quando commeçou a reinar; e dezesete annos reinou em Jerusalem, a cidade que o Senhor escolheu d'entre todas as tribus d'Israel, para pôr ali o seu nome; e era o nome de sua mãe Naama, ammonita.

So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned: for Rehoboam was one and forty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mother’s name was Naamah an Ammonitess.

14 E fez o que era mal; porquanto não preparou o seu coração para buscar ao Senhor.

And he did evil, because he prepared not his heart to seek the Lord.

15 Os successos pois de Roboão, assim os primeiros, como os ultimos, porventura não estão escriptos nos livros de Semaias, o propheta, e de Iddo, o vidente, na relação das genealogias? E havia guerras entre Roboão e Jeroboão em todos os seus dias.

Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the book of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer concerning genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.

16 E Roboão dormiu com seus paes, e foi sepultado na cidade de David: e Abias, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.

And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.
