< 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 six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa, Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow anyone to 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:
Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the king's house, and sent to Ben Hadad king of Aram, who lived 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.
"Let there be a treaty between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Look, I have sent you silver and gold. Go, break your treaty 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.
Ben Hadad listened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they struck Ijon, and Dan, and Abel Maim, and all the storage cities of Naphtali.
5 E succedeu que, ouvindo-o Baása, deixou d'edificar a Rama; e descontinuou a sua obra.
It happened, 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.
Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and its timber, with which Baasha had built; and he built therewith 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.
At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him, "Because you have relied on the king of Aram, and have not relied on the LORD your God, therefore is the army of the king of Aram escaped out of your 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.
Weren't the Ethiopians and the Lubim a huge army, with chariots and horsemen exceeding many? Yet, because you relied on the LORD, he delivered them into your 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 the LORD run back and forth throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein you have done foolishly; for from now on you shall 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.
Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in the prison; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. 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.
Look, the acts of Asa, first and last, look, 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.
In the thirty-ninth year of his reign Asa was diseased in his feet; his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he did not seek the LORD, but to the physicians.
13 E Asa dormiu com seus paes; e morreu no anno quarenta e um do seu reinado.
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.
They buried him in his own tomb that he had dug out in the City of David, and laid him in the bed which was filled with spices and various kinds of sweet-scented herbs prepared by the perfumers' art, and they made a very great fire for him.
