< 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.
Then in the seventh year, Jehoiada having been strengthened, he took the centurions, namely, Azariah, the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael, the son of Jehohanan, and also Azariah, the son of Obed, and Maaseiah, the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat, the son of Zichri, and he formed a pact with them.
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 traveling through Judah, they gathered together the Levites from all of the cities of Judah, and the leaders of the families of Israel, and they went 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.
Then the entire multitude formed a pact with the king, in the house of God. And Jehoiada said to them: “Behold, the son of the king shall reign, just as the Lord has said 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;
Therefore, this is the word that you shall do:
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.
One third part of you who arrive on the Sabbath, priests, and Levites, and porters, shall be at the gates. Truly, one third part shall be at the house of the king. And one third shall be at the gate which is called the Foundation. Yet truly, let all the remainder of the common people be in the courts of the house of the Lord.
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,
Let no one else enter into the house of the Lord, except the priests, and those from the Levites who are ministering. These alone may enter, for they have been sanctified. And let all the remainder of the common people observe the watches of the Lord.
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
Then let the Levites encircle the king, each one having his weapons. And if anyone else will have entered into the temple, let him be slain. And may they be with the king, both entering and departing.”
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.
Then the Levites, and all of Judah, acted in accord with all that the high priest Jehoiada had instructed. And each of them took the men who were under him, and who were arriving by the course of the Sabbath, with those who had fulfilled the Sabbath and who were about to depart. For indeed the high priest Jehoiada had not permitted the companies to depart, which were accustomed to replace one another each week.
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, gave to the centurions the lances and round shields and crescent shields of king David, which he had dedicated in the house of the Lord.
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 positioned all the people, holding short swords, from the right part of the temple to the left part of the temple, before the altar and the temple, all around the king.
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!
And they led out the son of the king. And they imposed the diadem on him, and the testimony. And they gave him the law to hold in his hand. And they appointed him as king. Also, the high priest Jehoiada and his sons anointed him. And they prayed for him, and said, “May the king live!”
12 Ouvindo pois Athalia a voz do povo que concorria e louvava o rei, veiu ao povo, á casa do Senhor.
And when Athaliah had heard it, specifically the sound of running and the praising of the king, she entered to the people in the temple of the Lord.
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 when she had seen the king standing upon the step at the entrance, and the leaders and companies around him, and all the people of the land rejoicing, and sounding the trumpets, and playing on instruments of various kinds, and the voice of those who were praising, she tore her garments, and she 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
Then the high priest Jehoiada, going out to the centurions and to the leaders of the army, said to them: “Lead her away, beyond the borders of the temple. And let her be put to death outside, with the sword.” And the priest instructed that she should not be killed in the house of the Lord.
15 E elles lhe lançaram as mãos, e ella foi á entrada da porta dos cavallos, da casa do rei: e ali a mataram.
And they laid hands on her neck. And when she had entered the gate for the horses at the king’s house, they put her to death there.
16 E Joiada fez alliança entre si, e o povo, e o rei, que seriam o povo do Senhor.
Then Jehoiada formed a covenant between himself and the entire people, and the king, so that they would be the people of the Lord.
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 so, all the people entered into the house of Baal, and they destroyed it. And they broke apart his altars and idols. Also, they put to death 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.
Then Jehoiada appointed overseers in the house of the Lord, under the hands of the priests and Levites, whom David had distributed to the house of the Lord so that they might offer holocausts to the Lord, just as it was written in the law of Moses, with gladness and singing, in accord with the disposition of David.
19 E poz porteiros ás portas da casa do Senhor, para que não entrasse n'ella ninguem immundo em coisa alguma.
Also, he appointed porters at the gates of the house of the Lord, so that whoever was unclean for any reason would not enter.
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 centurions, and the most valiant men, and the leaders of the people, and all the common people of the land, and they set out to descend to the king, from the house of the Lord, and to enter through the middle of the upper gate, to the house of the king. And they placed him on the royal throne.
21 E todo o povo da terra se alegrou, e a cidade ficou em paz, depois que mataram a Athalia á espada.
And all the people of the land were rejoicing, and the city was quieted. But Athaliah was slain with the sword.
