< 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, —that he might let none come out or go in, unto 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:
So Asa brought forth silver and gold, out of the treasuries of the house of Yahweh, and the house of the king, —and sent unto Ben-hadad, king of Syria, who dwelt in 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 covenant, between me and thee, as between my father and thy father.—Lo! I have sent thee silver and gold, go break thy covenant with Baasha king of Israel, that he may go up 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 unto King Asa, and sent the chieftains of the forces which he had, against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon and Dan, and Abel-maim, —and all the storehouses of the cities of Naphtali.
5 E succedeu que, ouvindo-o Baása, deixou d'edificar a Rama; e descontinuou a sua obra.
And it cams to pass, when Baasha heard it, 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, Asa the king, took all Judah, and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timbers thereof, which Baasha had used in building, —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.
And, at that time, came Hanani the seer, unto Asa the king of Judah, —and said unto him, Because thou hast leaned upon the king of Syria, and hast not leaned upon Yahweh thy God, for this cause, hath the force 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 Lybians, a huge host, with chariots and horsemen exceeding many? yet, because thou didst lean upon Yahweh, 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, as touching Yahweh, [seeing that], his eyes, are ever running to and fro throughout all the earth, to shew himself strong with them who are perfect toward himself, thou hast made thyself foolish over this, —for, from henceforth, there shall be with thee—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 was Asa angry with the seer, and put him in the house of the stocks, for he was in a rage with him, over this, —and Asa oppressed some of the people, at that 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.
But lo! the story of Asa, first and last, there it is, 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 became diseased—in the thirty-ninth year of his reign—in his feet, exceedingly severe, was his disease, —yet, even in his disease, he sought not Yahweh, but unto physicians.
13 E Asa dormiu com seus paes; e morreu no anno quarenta e um do seu reinado.
And Asa slept with his fathers, —yea he died in the forty-first 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 stately sepulchre, which he had hewn for himself in the city of David, and laid him on a couch which was full of sweet spices—yea of various kinds, made by the perfumer’s art, —and they burned for him with an exceeding great burning.
