2 Crônicas 25

1 Era Amasias da edade de vinte e cinco annos, quando começou a reinar, e reinou vinte e nove annos em Jerusalem: e era o nome de sua mãe Joadan, de Jerusalem.

Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.

2 E fez o que era recto aos olhos do Senhor, porém não com coração inteiro.

He did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, but not with a perfect heart.

3 Succedeu pois que, sendo-lhe o reino já confirmado, matou a seus servos que feriram o rei seu pae;

Now it happened, when the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, that he killed his servants who had killed his father the king.

4 Porém não matou a seus filhos: mas fez como na lei está escripto, no livro de Moysés, como o Senhor ordenou, dizendo: Não morrerão os paes pelos filhos, nem os filhos morrerão pelos paes; mas cada um morrerá pelo seu peccado

But he did not put their children to death, but did according to that which is written in the law in the scroll of Moses, as the LORD commanded, saying, "The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin."

5 E Amasias ajuntou a Judah e os poz segundo as casas dos paes, por chefes de milhares, e por chefes de centenas, por todo o Judah e Benjamin; e os numerou, de vinte annos e d'ahi para cima, e achou d'elles trezentos mil escolhidos que sahiam ao exercito, e levavam lança e escudo.

Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and ordered them according to their fathers' houses, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, even all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and upward, and found them three hundred thousand chosen men, able to go forth to war, who could handle spear and shield.

6 Tambem d'Israel tomou a soldo cem mil varões valentes, por cem talentos de prata.

He hired also one hundred thousand mighty men of valor out of Israel for one hundred talents of silver.

7 Porém um homem de Deus veiu a elle, dizendo: Oh rei, não deixes ir comtigo o exercito de Israel: porque o Senhor não é com Israel, a saber, com os filhos d'Ephraim.

A man of God came to him, saying, "O king, do not let the army of Israel go with you; for the LORD is not with Israel, with all the people of Ephraim.

8 Se porém fôres, faze-o, esforça-te para a peleja; Deus te fará cair diante do inimigo; porque força ha em Deus para ajudar e para fazer cair

But if you will go, take action, be strong for the battle. God will overthrow you before the enemy; for God has power to help, and to overthrow."

9 E disse Amasias ao homem de Deus: Que se fará pois dos cem talentos de prata que dei ás tropas d'Israel? E disse o homem de Deus: Mais tem o Senhor que te dar do que isso.

Amaziah said to the man of God, "But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel?" The man of God answered, "The LORD is able to give you much more than this."

10 Então separou Amasias as tropas que lhe tinham vindo de Ephraim, para que se fossem ao seu logar; pelo que se accendeu a sua ira contra Judah, e voltaram para o seu logar em ardor d'ira.

Then Amaziah separated them, the army that had come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: therefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in fierce anger.

11 Esforçou-se pois Amasias, e conduziu o seu povo, e foi-se ao valle do sal; e feriu dos filhos de Seir dez mil.

Amaziah took courage, and led forth his people, and went to the Valley of Salt, and struck ten thousand of the people of Seir.

12 Tambem os filhos de Judah prenderam vivos dez mil, e os trouxeram ao cume da rocha; e do mais alto da rocha os lançaram d'alto abaixo, e todos arrebentaram.

The people of Judah carry away ten thousand alive, and brought them to the top of the rock, and threw them down from the top of the rock, so that they all were broken in pieces.

13 Porém os homens das tropas que Amasias despedira, para que não fossem com elle á peleja, deram sobre as cidades de Judah desde Samaria, até Beth-horon; e feriram d'elles tres mil, e saquearam grande despojo.

But the men of the army whom Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell on the cities of Judah, from Samaria even to Beth Horon, and struck of them three thousand, and took much spoil.

14 E succedeu que, depois que Amasias veiu da matança dos idumeos, e trouxe comsigo os deuses dos filhos de Seir, tomou-os por seus deuses, e prostrou-se diante d'elles, e queimou-lhes incenso.

Now it happened, after that Amaziah had come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the people of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense to them.

15 Então a ira do Senhor se accendeu contra Amasias; e mandou-lhe um propheta que lhe disse: Porque buscaste deuses do povo, que a seu povo não livraram da tua mão?

Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against Amaziah, and he sent to him a prophet, who said to him, "Why have you sought after the gods of the people, which have not delivered their own people out of your hand?"

16 E succedeu que, fallando-lhe elle, lhe respondeu: Pozeram-te por conselheiro do rei? cala-te, porque te feririam? então o propheta parou, e disse: Bem vejo eu que já o Senhor deliberou destruir-te; porquanto fizeste isto, e não déste ouvidos a meu conselho.

It happened, as he talked with him, that the king said to him, "Have we made you one of the king's counselors? Stop. Why should you be struck down?" Then the prophet stopped, and said, "I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this, and have not listened to my counsel."

17 E, tendo tomado conselho, Amasias, rei de Judah, enviou a Joás, filho de Joachaz, filho de Jehu, rei d'Israel, a dizer: Vem, vejamo-nos cara a cara.

Then Amaziah king of Judah consulted his advisers, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us look one another in the face."

18 Porém Joás, rei d'Israel, mandou dizer a Amasias, rei de Judah: O cardo que estava no Libano mandou dizer ao cedro que estava no Libano: Dá tua filha a meu filho por mulher; porém os animaes do campo que estão no Libano passaram e pizaram o cardo.

Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, "The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son as his wife; then a wild animal that was in Lebanon passed by, and trampled down the thistle.

19 Tu dizes: Eis que tenho ferido os idumeos; e elevou-se o teu coração, para te gloriares: agora pois fica em tua casa; porque te entremetterias no mal, para caires tu e Judah comtigo?

You say to yourself that you have struck Edom; and your heart lifts you up to boast. Now stay at home. Why should you meddle with trouble, that you should fall, even you, and Judah with you?'"

20 Porém Amasias não lhe deu ouvidos, porque isto vinha de Deus, para entregal-os na mão dos seus inimigos; porquanto buscaram os deuses dos idumeos.

But Amaziah would not listen; for it was of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they had sought after the gods of Edom.

21 E Joás, rei d'Israel, subiu; e elle e Amasias, rei de Judah, se viram cara a cara em Beth-semes, que está em Judah.

So Joash king of Israel went up; and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.

22 E Judah foi ferido diante d'Israel: e foram-se cada um para as suas tendas.

Judah was defeated by Israel; and they fled every man to his tent.

23 E Joás, rei d'Israel, prendeu a Amasias, rei de Judah, filho de Joás, o filho de Joachaz em Beth-semes, e o trouxe a Jerusalem; e derribou o muro de Jerusalem, desde a porta d'Ephraim até á porta da esquina, quatrocentos covados.

Joash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth Shemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate, six hundred eighty-nine feet.

24 Tambem tomou todo o oiro, e a prata, e todos os vasos que se acharam na casa de Deus com Obed-edom, e os thesouros da casa do rei, e os refens; e voltou para Samaria.

He took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in God's house with Obed-Edom, and the treasures of the king's house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.

25 E viveu Amasias, filho de Joás, rei de Judah, depois da morte de Joás, filho de Joachaz, rei d'Israel, quinze annos.

Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.

26 Quanto ao mais dos successos d'Amasias, tanto os primeiros como os ultimos, eis-que porventura não estão escriptos no livro dos reis de Judah e d'Israel?

Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, look, aren't they written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?

27 E desde o tempo que Amasias se desviou d'após o Senhor, conspiraram contra elle em Jerusalem, porém elle fugiu para Lachis, mas enviaram após elle a Lachis, e o mataram ali.

Now from the time that Amaziah turned away from following the LORD, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem. He fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and killed him there.

28 E o trouxeram sobre cavallos e o sepultaram com seus paes na cidade de Judah.

They brought him on horses, and buried him with his fathers in the City of David.
