2 Crônicas 29
1 Tinha Ezequias vinte e cinco annos de edade, quando começou a reinar e reinou vinte e nove annos em Jerusalem: e era o nome de sua mãe Abia, filha de Zacharias.
And Ezekias began to reign at the age of twenty-five years, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Abia, daughter of Zacharias.
2 E fez o que era recto aos olhos do Senhor, conforme a tudo quanto fizera David seu pae.
And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David had done.
3 Este, no anno primeiro do seu reinado, no mez primeiro, abriu as portas da casa do Senhor, e as reparou.
And it came to pass, when he was established over his kingdom, in the first month, he opened the doors of the house of the Lord, and repaired them.
4 E trouxe os sacerdotes, e os levitas, e os ajuntou na praça oriental,
And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and put them on the east side,
5 E lhes disse: Ouvi-me, ó levitas, sanctificae-vos agora, e sanctificae a casa do Senhor, Deus de vossos paes, e tirae do sanctuario a immundicia.
and said to them, Hear, ye Levites: now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of the Lord God of your fathers, and cast out the impurity from the holy places.
6 Porque nossos paes transgrediram, e fizeram o que era mal aos olhos do Senhor nosso Deus, e o deixaram; e desviaram os seus rostos do tabernaculo do Senhor, e lhe deram as costas.
For our fathers have revolted, and done that which was evil before the Lord our God, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their face from the tabernacle of the Lord, and have turned [their] back.
7 Tambem fecharam as portas do alpendre, e apagaram as lampadas, e não queimaram incenso nem offereceram holocaustos no sanctuario, ao Deus de Israel.
And they have shut up the doors of the temple, and put out the lamps, and have not burnt incense, and have not offered whole-burnt-offerings in the holy [place] to the God of Israel.
8 Pelo que veiu grande ira do Senhor sobre Judah e Jerusalem, e os entregou á perturbação, á assolação, e ao assobio, como vós o estaes vendo com os vossos olhos.
And the Lord was very angry with Juda and Jerusalem, and made them an astonishment, and a desolation, and a hissing, as ye see with your eyes.
9 Porque eis que nossos paes cairam á espada, e nossos filhos, e nossas filhas, e nossas mulheres por isso estiveram em captiveiro.
And, behold, your fathers have been smitten with the sword, and your sons and your daughters and your wives are in captivity in a land not their own, as it is even now.
10 Agora me tem vindo ao coração, que façamos um concerto com o Senhor, Deus de Israel; para que se desvie de nós o ardor da sua ira
Therefore it is now in my heart to make a covenant, a covenant with the Lord God of Israel, that he may turn away his fierce wrath from us.
11 Agora, filhos meus, não sejaes negligentes; pois o Senhor vos tem escolhido para estardes diante d'elle para o servirdes, e para serdes seus ministros e queimadores de incenso.
And now be not wanting [to your duty], for the Lord has chosen you to stand before him to minister, and to be ministers and burners of incense to him.
12 Então se levantaram os levitas, Mahath, filho d'Amasai, e Joel filho de Azarias, dos filhos dos kohathitas: e dos filhos de Merari, Kis, filho d'Abdi, e Azarias, filho de Jehalelel: e dos gersonitas, Joah, filho de Zimma, e Eden filho de Joah;
Then the Levites rose up, Maath the son of Amasi, and Joel the son of Azarias, of the sons of Caath: and of the sons of Merari, Kis the son of Abdi, and Azarias the son of Haelel: and of the sons of Gedsoni, Jodaad the son of Zemmath, and Joadam: these [were] the sons of Joacha.
13 E d'entre os filhos de Elisaphan, Simri e Jeiel: d'entre os filhos d'Asaph, Zacharias e Matthanias:
And of the sons of Elisaphan; Zambri, and Jeiel: and of the sons of Asaph; Zacharias, and Matthanias:
14 E d'entre os filhos d'Heman, Jehiel e Simei: e d'entre os filhos de Jeduthun, Semaias e Uziel.
and of the sons of Aeman; Jeiel, and Semei: and of the sons of Idithun; Samaisa, and Oziel.
15 E ajuntaram a seus irmãos, e sanctificaram-se e vieram conforme ao mandado do rei, pelas palavras do Senhor, para purificarem a casa do Senhor.
And they gathered their brethren, and they purified themselves according to the king's command by the order of the Lord, to purify the house of the Lord.
16 E os sacerdotes entraram dentro da casa do Senhor, para a purificar, e tiraram para fóra, ao pateo da casa do Senhor, toda a immundicia que acharam no templo do Senhor: e os levitas a tomaram, para a levarem para fóra, ao ribeiro de Cedron.
And the priests entered into the house of the Lord, to purify [it], and they cast out all the uncleanness that was found in the house of the Lord, even into the court of the house of the Lord: and the Levites received [it] to cast into the brook of Kedron without.
17 Começaram pois a sanctificar ao primeiro do mez primeiro: e ao oitavo dia do mez vieram ao alpendre do Senhor, e sanctificaram a casa do Senhor em oito dias: e no dia decimo sexto do primeiro mez acabaram.
And [Ezekias] began on the first day, [even] on the new moon of the first month, to purify, and on the eighth day of the month they entered into the temple of the Lord: and they purified the house of the Lord in eight days; and on the thirteenth day of the first month they finished [the work].
18 Então entraram para dentro, ao rei Ezequias, e disseram: Já purificámos toda a casa do Senhor, como tambem o altar do holocausto com todos os seus vasos e a mesa da proposição com todos os seus vasos.
And they went in to king Ezekias, and said, We have purified all the things in the house of the Lord, the altar of whole-burnt-offering, and its vessels, and the table of shew-bread, and its vessels;
19 Tambem todos os vasos que o rei Achaz no seu reinado lançou fóra, na sua transgressão, já preparámos e sanctificámos: e eis que estão diante do altar do Senhor
and all the vessels which king Achaz polluted in his reign, in his apostasy, we have prepared and purified: behold, they are before the altar of the Lord.
20 Então o rei Ezequias se levantou de madrugada, e ajuntou os maioraes da cidade, e subiu á casa do Senhor.
And king Ezekias rose early in the morning, and gathered the chief men of the city, and went up to the house of the Lord.
21 E trouxeram sete novilhos e sete carneiros, e sete cordeiros, e sete bodes, para sacrificio pelo peccado, pelo reino, e pelo sanctuario, e por Judah, e disse aos filhos de Aarão, os sacerdotes, que os offerecessem sobre o altar do Senhor.
And he brought seven calves, seven rams, seven lambs, seven kids of goats for a sin-offering, for the kingdom, and for the holy things, and for Israel: and he told the priests the sons of Aaron to go up to the altar of the Lord.
22 E elles mataram os bois, e os sacerdotes tomaram o sangue e o espargiram sobre o altar: tambem mataram os carneiros, e espargiram o sangue sobre o altar: similhantemente mataram os cordeiros, e espargiram o sangue sobre o altar.
And they slew the calves, and the priests received the blood, and poured it on the altar: and they slew the rams, and poured the blood upon the altar: also they slew the lambs, and poured the blood round the altar.
23 Então trouxeram os bodes para sacrificio pelo peccado, perante o rei e a congregação, e lhes impozeram as suas mãos.
And they brought the goats for a sin-offering before the king and the congregation; and laid their hands upon them.
24 E os sacerdotes os mataram, e com o seu sangue fizeram expiação do peccado sobre o altar, para reconciliar a todo o Israel: porque o rei tinha ordenado que se fizesse aquelle holocausto e sacrificio pelo peccado, por todo o Israel.
And the priests slew them, and offered their blood as a propitiation on the altar; and they made atonement for all Israel: for the king said, The whole-burnt-offering, and the sin-offering [are] for all Israel.
25 E poz os levitas na casa do Senhor com cymbalos, com alaudes, e com harpas, conforme ao mandado de David e de Gad, o vidente do rei, e do propheta Nathan: porque este mandado veiu do Senhor, por mão de seus prophetas.
And he stationed the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, and lutes, and harps, according to the commandment of king David, and of Gad the king's seer, and Nathan the prophet: for by the commandment of the Lord the order [was] in the hand of the prophets.
26 Estavam pois os levitas em pé com os instrumentos de David, e os sacerdotes com as trombetas.
And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
27 E deu ordem Ezequias que offerecessem o holocausto sobre o altar, e ao tempo em que começou o holocausto, começou tambem o canto do Senhor, com as trombetas e com os instrumentos de David, rei de Israel.
And Ezekias told [them] to offer up the whole-burnt-offering on the altar: and when they began to offer the whole-burnt-offering, they began to sing to the Lord, and the trumpets [accompanied] the instruments of David king of Israel.
28 E toda a congregação se prostrou, quando cantavam o canto, e as trombetas se tocavam: tudo isto até o holocausto se acabar.
And all the congregation worshipped, and the psalm-singers [were] singing, and the trumpets sounding, until the whole-burnt-sacrifice had been completely offered.
29 E acabando de o offerecer, o rei e todos quantos com elle se acharam se prostraram e adoraram.
And when they had done offering [it], the king and all that were present bowed, and worshipped.
30 Então disse o rei Ezequias, e os maioraes, aos levitas que louvassem ao Senhor com as palavras de David, e d'Asaph, o vidente. E o louvaram com alegria e se inclinaram e adoraram.
And king Ezekias and the princes told the Levites to sing hymns to the Lord in the words of David, and of Asaph the prophet: and they sang hymns with gladness, and fell down and worshipped.
31 E respondeu Ezequias, e disse: Agora vos consagrastes a vós mesmos ao Senhor; chegae-vos e trazei sacrificios e offertas de louvor á casa do Senhor. E a congregação trouxe sacrificios e offertas de louvor, e todo o voluntario de coração, holocaustos.
Then Ezekias answered and said, Now ye have consecrated yourselves to the Lord, bring near and offer sacrifices of praise in the house of the Lord. And the congregation brought sacrifices and thank-offerings into the house of the Lord; and every one who was ready in his heart [brought] whole-burnt-offerings.
32 E o numero dos holocaustos, que a congregação trouxe, foi de setenta bois, cem carneiros, duzentos cordeiros: tudo isto em holocausto para o Senhor.
And the number of the whole-burnt-offerings which the congregation brought, was seventy calves, a hundred rams, two hundred lambs: all these [were] for a whole-burnt-offering to the Lord.
33 Houve, tambem de coisas consagradas, seiscentos bois e tres mil ovelhas.
And the consecrated calves were six hundred, [and] the sheep three thousand.
34 Eram porém os sacerdotes mui poucos, e não podiam esfolar a todos os holocaustos; pelo que seus irmãos os levitas os ajudaram, até a obra se acabar, e até que os outros sacerdotes se sanctificaram; porque os levitas foram mais rectos de coração, para se sanctificarem, do que os sacerdotes.
But the priests were few, and could not flay the whole-burnt-offering, so their brethren the Levites helped them, until the work was finished, and until the priests had purified themselves: for the Levites [more] zealously purified [themselves] than the priests.
35 E houve tambem holocaustos em abundancia, com a gordura das offertas pacificas, e com as offertas de licor para os holocaustos. Assim se estabeleceu o ministerio da casa do Senhor.
And the whole-burnt-offering [was] abundant, with the fat of the complete peace-offering, and the drink-offerings of the whole-burnt-sacrifice. So the service was established in the house of the Lord.
36 E Ezequias, e todo o povo se alegraram, de que Deus tinha preparado o povo; porque apressuradamente se fez esta obra.
And Ezekias and all the people rejoiced, because God has prepared the people: for the thing was done suddenly.
