< 2 Crônicas 16 >
1 No anno trigesimo sexto do reinado d'Asa, Baása, rei d'Israel, subiu contra Judah e edificou a Rama, para ninguem deixar sair nem entrar a Asa, rei de Judah.
In the thirty-sixth year of the reign of Asa, Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, in order to let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
2 Então tirou a Asa a prata e o oiro dos thesouros da casa de Deus, e da casa do rei; e enviou a Benhadad, rei da Syria, que habitava em Damasco, dizendo:
And Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of Jehovah and of the king's house, and sent to Ben-hadad king of Syria, who dwelt at Damascus, saying,
3 Alliança ha entre mim e ti, como houve entre meu pae e teu: eis que te envio prata e oiro; vae, pois, e anniquila a tua alliança com Baása, rei d'Israel, para que se retire de sobre mim.
There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: behold, I send thee silver and gold; go, break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
4 E Benhadad deu ouvidos ao rei Asa, e enviou o capitão dos exercitos que tinha, contra as cidades d'Israel, e feriram a Ijon, e a Dan, e a Abelmaim; e a todas as cidades das munições de Naphtali.
And Ben-hadad hearkened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his forces against the cities of Israel; and they smote Ijon and Dan and Abelmaim, and all the store-magazines of the cities of Naphtali.
5 E succedeu que, ouvindo-o Baása, deixou d'edificar a Rama; e descontinuou a sua obra.
And it came to pass when Baasha heard of it, that he left off building Ramah, and let his work cease.
6 Então o rei Asa tomou a todo o Judah e levaram as pedras de Rama, e a sua madeira, com que Baása edificara; e edificou com isto a Geba e a Mispah.
And king Asa took all Judah; and they carried away the stones and the timber from Ramah, with which Baasha had been building, and he built with them Geba and Mizpah.
7 N'aquelle mesmo tempo veiu Hanani, o vidente, a Asa rei de Judah, e disse-lhe: Porquanto confiaste no rei da Syria, e não confiaste no Senhor teu Deus, portanto o exercito do rei da Syria escapou da tua mão.
And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said unto him, Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria, and hast not relied on Jehovah thy God, therefore has the army of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hand.
8 Porventura não foram os ethiopes e os lybios um grande exercito, com muitissimos carros e cavalleiros? confiando tu porém no Senhor, elle os entregou nas tuas mãos.
Were not the Ethiopians and the Libyans a huge army, with very many chariots and horsemen? but when thou didst rely on Jehovah, he delivered them into thy hand.
9 Porque, quanto ao Senhor, seus olhos passam por toda a terra, para mostrar-se forte para com aquelles cujo coração é perfeito para com elle; n'isto pois fizeste loucamente porque desde agora haverá guerras contra ti.
For the eyes of Jehovah run to and fro through the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of those whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly; for from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
10 Porém Asa se indignou contra o vidente, e lançou-o na casa do tronco; porque d'isto grandemente se alterou contra elle: tambem Asa no mesmo tempo opprimiu a alguns do povo.
And Asa was wroth with the seer, and put him in the prison; for he was enraged with him because of this. And Asa oppressed some of the people at the same time.
11 E eis que os successos d'Asa, tanto os primeiros, como os ultimos, estão escriptos no livro dos reis de Judah e Israel.
And behold the acts of Asa, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
12 E caiu Asa doente de seus pés no anno trinta e nove do seu reinado: grande por extremo era a sua enfermidade, e comtudo na sua enfermidade não buscou ao Senhor, mas antes aos medicos.
And Asa in the thirty-ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was extremely great; yet in his disease he did not seek Jehovah, but the physicians.
13 E Asa dormiu com seus paes; e morreu no anno quarenta e um do seu reinado.
And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one-and-fortieth year of his reign.
14 E o sepultaram no seu sepulchro, que tinha cavado para si na cidade de David, havendo-o deitado na cama, que se enchera de cheiros e especiarias preparadas segundo a arte dos perfumistas: e fizeram-lhe queima mui grande.
And they buried him in his own sepulchre, which he had excavated for himself in the city of David, and laid him in a bed filled with spices, a mixture of divers kinds prepared by the perfumer's art; and they made a very great burning for him.
