< 2 Crônicas 23 >
1 Porém no setimo anno Joiada se esforçou, e tomou comsigo em alliança os chefes das centenas, a Azarias, filho de Joroão, e a Ishmael, filho de Jahanan, e a Azarias, filho d'Obed, e a Maaseias, filho d'Adaias, e a Elisaphat, filho de Sicri.
And in the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the captains of hundreds, Azariah the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, and Azariah the son of Obed, and Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri, into covenant with him.
2 Estes rodeiaram a Judah e ajuntaram os levitas de todas as cidades de Judah e os cabeças dos paes d'Israel, e vieram para Jerusalem.
And they went about in Judah, and gathered the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the heads of fathers of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.
3 E toda aquella congregação fez alliança com o rei na casa de Deus: e Joiada lhes disse: Eis que o filho do rei reinará, como o Senhor fallou a respeito dos filhos de David.
And all the assembly made a covenant with the king in the house of God. And he said to them, Behold, the king's son shall reign, as Jehovah has spoken concerning the sons of David.
4 Esta é a coisa que haveis de fazer: uma terça parte de vós, os sacerdotes e os levitas que entram de sabbado, serão porteiros das portas;
This is the thing that ye shall do: A third part of you who come in on the sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be porters of the thresholds,
5 E uma terça parte estará na casa do rei; e a outra terça parte á porta do fundamento: e todo o povo estará nos pateos da casa do Senhor.
and a third part shall be at the king's house, and a third part at the gate of the foundation. And all the people shall be in the courts of the house of Jehovah.
6 Porém ninguem entre na casa do Senhor, senão os sacerdotes e os levitas que ministram; estes entrarão, porque sanctos são; mas todo o povo vigiará a guarda do Senhor,
But let none come into the house of Jehovah except the priests, and those who minister of the Levites. They shall come in for they are holy, but all the people shall keep the charge of Jehovah.
7 E os levitas rodeiarão ao rei em volta, cada um com as suas armas na mão; e qualquer que entrar na casa morrerá; porém vós estareis com o rei, quando entrar e quando sair
And the Levites shall encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand. And whoever comes into the house, let him be slain. And be ye with the king when he comes in, and when he goes out.
8 E fizeram os levitas e todo o Judah conforme a tudo o que ordenara o sacerdote Joiada; e tomou cada um os seus homens, os que entravam no sabbado com os que sahiam do sabbado; porque o sacerdote Joiada não tinha despedido as turmas.
So the Levites and all Judah did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded. And they took every man his men, those who were to come in on the sabbath, with those who were to go out on the sabbath. For Jehoiada the priest did not dismiss the divisions.
9 Tambem o sacerdote Joiada deu aos chefes das centenas as lanças, e os escudos, e as rodelas que foram do rei David os quaes estavam na casa de Deus.
And Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds the spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David's, which were in the house of God.
10 E dispoz todo o povo, e a cada um com as suas armas na sua mão, desde a banda direita da casa até á banda esquerda da casa, da banda do altar e da casa, á roda do rei
And he set all the people, every man with his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, along by the altar and the house, by the king round about.
11 Então tiraram para fóra ao filho do rei, e lhe pozeram a corôa; deram-lhe o testemunho, e o fizeram rei: e Joiada e seus filhos o ungiram, e disseram: Viva o rei!
Then they brought out the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and gave him the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him. And they said, Live, O king.
12 Ouvindo pois Athalia a voz do povo que concorria e louvava o rei, veiu ao povo, á casa do Senhor.
And when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people into the house of Jehovah.
13 E olhou: e eis-que o rei estava perto da sua columna, á entrada, e os chefes, e as trombetas junto ao rei; e todo o povo da terra estava alegre, e tocava as trombetas; e tambem os cantores tocavam instrumentos musicos, e davam a entender que se deviam cantar louvores: então Athalia rasgou os seus vestidos, e clamou: Traição, traição!
And she looked, and, behold, the king stood by his pillar at the entrance, and the captains and the trumpets by the king. And all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew trumpets. The singers also played on instruments of music, and led the singing of praise. Then Athaliah tore her clothes, and said, Treason! treason!
14 Porém o sacerdote Joiada tirou para fóra os centuriões que estavam postos sobre o exercito e disse-lhes: Tirae-a para fóra das fileiras, e o que a seguir, morrerá á espada: porque dissera o sacerdote: Não a matareis na casa do Senhor
And Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds who were set over the army, and said to them, Have her forth between the ranks. And whoever follows her, let him be slain with the sword, for the priest said, Do not slay her in the house of Jehovah.
15 E elles lhe lançaram as mãos, e ella foi á entrada da porta dos cavallos, da casa do rei: e ali a mataram.
So they made way for her. And she went to the entrance of the horse gate to the king's house, and they killed her there.
16 E Joiada fez alliança entre si, e o povo, e o rei, que seriam o povo do Senhor.
And Jehoiada made a covenant between himself, and all the people, and the king, that they should be Jehovah's people.
17 Depois todo o povo entrou na casa de Baal, e a derribaram, e quebraram os seus altares, e as suas imagens, e a Mathan, sacerdote de Baal, mataram diante dos altares.
And all the people went to the house of Baal, and broke it down, and broke his altars and his images in pieces, and killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18 E Joiada ordenou os officios na casa do Senhor, debaixo da mão dos sacerdotes, os levitas a quem David repartira na casa do Senhor, para offerecerem os holocaustos do Senhor, como está escripto na lei de Moysés, com alegria e com canto, conforme a instituição de David.
And Jehoiada appointed the officers of the house of Jehovah under the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of Jehovah, to offer the burnt offerings of Jehovah, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, according to the order of David.
19 E poz porteiros ás portas da casa do Senhor, para que não entrasse n'ella ninguem immundo em coisa alguma.
And he set the porters at the gates of the house of Jehovah that no man who was unclean in anything should enter in.
20 E tomou os centuriões, e os poderosos, e os que tinham dominio entre o povo e todo o povo da terra, e conduziu o rei da casa do Senhor, e entraram na casa do rei pelo meio da porta maior, e assentaram o rei no throno do reino.
And he took the captains of hundreds, and the mighty men, and the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king from the house of Jehovah. And they came through the upper gate to the king's house, and set the king upon the throne of the kingdom.
21 E todo o povo da terra se alegrou, e a cidade ficou em paz, depois que mataram a Athalia á espada.
So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet. And they had slain Athaliah with the sword.
