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.

Twenty-five years old, was Amaziah, when he began to reign, and, twenty-nine years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.

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

And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, —only not with a whole heart.

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

And it came to pass, when the kingdom was confirmed unto him, that he slew his servants who had smitten the king his father;

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, their sons, he put not to death, —but as it is written in the law—in the book of Moses—how that Yahweh commanded, saying-Fathers, shall not die for, sons, and Sons, shall not die, for, fathers, but Each man, for his own sin, shall die.

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.

And Amaziah gathered Judah together, and appointed them by their ancestral houses, as rulers of thousands and as rulers of hundreds, for all Judah and Benjamin, —and he numbered them, from twenty years old and upwards, and found them three hundred thousand choice men, able to go forth to war, who could grasp spear and shield.

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

And he hired out of Israel, a hundred thousand heroes of valour, for a 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.

But, a man of God, came unto him, saying, O king! let not the host of Israel come with thee, —for Yahweh is not with Israel, [with] any of the sons 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 thou art going, do, be strong for the battle, —God will cause thee to fall before the enemy, for there is strength in God, to help or to cause to fall.

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.

And Amaziah said unto the man of God, What then shall be done as to the hundred talents, which I have given to the company of Israel? Then said the man of God, Yahweh is able to give thee 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.

So Amaziah separated them, [appointing] unto the company which had come unto him out of Ephraim, to depart unto their own place, —wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, so they returned to their own place, in a heat of 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.

And, Amaziah, took courage, and led forth his people, and went to the valley of salt, —and smote of the sons of Seir, ten thousand;

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.

and the sons of Judah took captive, ten thousand alive, and brought to the top of the crag, —and cast them down from the top of the crag, and, all of them, were torn asunder.

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, as for the sons of the company which Amaziah sent back from going with him to the war, they spread themselves out against the cities of Judah, from Samaria, even unto Beth-horon, —and smote of them three thousand, and took great plunder.

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.

And so it was, after Amaziah came in from smiting the Edomites, that he brought in the gods of the sons of Seir, and set them up for himself, as gods, —and, before them, used he to bow himself down, and, unto them, used he to burn a perfume.

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?

Then was kindled the anger of Yahweh, against Amaziah, —and he sent unto him a prophet, and said unto him, Wherefore hast thou sought the gods of the people, which delivered not their own people out of thy 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.

And it came to pass, as he spake unto him, that he said to him, To be, counselor to the king, have we appointed thee? forbear thou, wherefore should they smite thee? So the prophet forbare, and said—I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto 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 took counsel, and sent unto Joash, son of Jehoahaz 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.

And Joash king of Israel sent unto Amaziah king of Judah, saying, A thistle that was in Lebanon, sent unto a cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Come! give thy daughter unto my son to wife, —but there passed by a beast of the field that was in Lebanon, 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?

Thou hast said-Lo! thou hast smitten the Edomites, and thy heart hath lifted thee up to display honour, -Now, abide in thine own house, wherefore shouldst thou engage in strife with Misfortune, and fall, thou and Judah with thee?

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 hearkened not, because, from God, it was, to the end he might deliver them up into [their enemies’] hand, —because they had sought 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 came up, and they looked one another in the face, he, and Amaziah king of Judah, —in Beth-shemesh, which belongeth unto Judah.

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

Then was Judah defeated, before Israel, —and they fled every man to his own home;

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.

and, Amaziah king of Judah, son of Joash son of Jehoahaz, was taken by Joash king of Israel, in Beth-shemesh, —and he brought him to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim as far as the corner-gate, four hundred cubits;

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.

and, all the gold and the silver and all the utensils that were found in the house of God with Obed-edom, and the treasures of the house of the king, and hostages, he took, -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.

And Amaziah 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 story of Amaziah, first and last, lo! it is 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.

And, after the time that Amaziah turned away from following Yahweh, they made against him a conspiracy in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish, —but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there.

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

And they brought him on horses, -and buried him with his fathers, in the city of Judah.
