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.
Now Ezechias began to reign, when he was five and twenty years old, and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Abia, the 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 pleasing in the sight of the Lord, according to all that David his father had done.
3 Este, no anno primeiro do seu reinado, no mez primeiro, abriu as portas da casa do Senhor, e as reparou.
In the first year and month of his reign 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 the priests and the Levites, and assembled them in the east street.
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 he said to them: Hear me, ye Levites, and be sanctified, purify the house of the Lord the God of your fathers, and take away all filth out of the sanctuary.
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.
Our fathers have sinned and done evil in the sight of the Lord God, forsaking him: they have turned away their faces from the tabernacle of the Lord, and turned their backs.
7 Tambem fecharam as portas do alpendre, e apagaram as lampadas, e não queimaram incenso nem offereceram holocaustos no sanctuario, ao Deus de Israel.
They have shut up the doors that were in tile porch, and put out the lamps. and have not burnt incense, nor offered holocausts in the sanctuary of 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.
Therefore the wrath of the Lord hath been stirred up against Juda and Jerusalem, and he hath delivered them to trouble, and to destruction, and to be hissed at, as you 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.
Behold, our fathers are fallen by the sword, our sons, and our daughters, and wives are led away captives for this wickedness.
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
Now therefore I have a mind that we make a covenant with the Lord the God of Israel, and he will turn away the wrath of his indignation 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.
My sons, be not negligent: the Lord hath chosen you to stand before him, and to minister to him, and to worship him, and to burn 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 arose, Mahath the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azarias, of the sons of Caath: and of the sons of Merari, Cis the son of Abdi, and Azarias the son of Jalaleel. And of the sons of Gerson, Joah the son of Zemma, and Eden the son of Joah.
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, Samri, and Jahiel. Also of the sons of Asaph, Zacharias, and Mathanias.
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 Heman, Jahiel, and Semei: and of the sons of Idithun, Semeias, 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 together their brethren, and sanctified themselves, and went in according to the commandment of the king, and the precept of the Lord, to purify the house of God.
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 went into the temple of the Lord to sanctify it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found within to the entrance of the house of the Lord, and the Levites took it away, and carried it out abroad to the torrent Cedron.
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 they began to cleanse on the first day of the first month, and on the eighth day of the same month they came into the porch of the temple of the Lord, and they purified the temple in eight days, and on the sixteenth day of the same month they finished what they had begun.
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 is to king Ezechias, and said to him: We have sanctified all the house of the Lord, and the altar of holocaust, and the vessels thereof, and the table of proposition with all 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 furniture of the temple, which king Achaz in his reign had defiled, after his transgression; and behold they are all set forth 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 Ezechias rising early, assembled all the rulers of the city, and went up into 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 they offered together seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he goats for sin, for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, for Juda: and he spoke to the priests the sons of Aaron, to offer them upon 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.
Therefore they killed the bullocks, and the priests took the blood, and poured it upon the altar; they killed also the rams, and their blood they poured also upon the altar, and they killed the lambs, and poured the blood upon 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 he goats for sin before the king, and the whole multitude, and they laid their hand 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 immolated them, and sprinkled their blood before the altar for an expiation of all Israel: for the king had commanded that the holocaust and the sin offering should be made 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 set the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, and psalteries, and harps according to the regulation of David the king, and of Gad the seer, and of Nathan the prophet: for it was the commandment of the Lord by the hand of his 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 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 Ezechias commanded that they should offer holocausts upon the altar: and when the holocausts were offered, they began to sing praises to the Lord, and to sound with trumpets, and divers instruments which David the king of Israel had prepared.
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 multitude adored, and the singers, and the trumpeters, were in their office till the holocaust was finished.
29 E acabando de o offerecer, o rei e todos quantos com elle se acharam se prostraram e adoraram.
And when the oblation was ended, the king, and all that were with him bowed down and adored.
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 Ezechias and the princes commanded the Levites to praise the Lord with the words of David, and Asaph the seer: and they praised him with great joy, and bowing the knee adored.
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.
And Ezechias added, and said: You have filled your hands to the Lord, come and offer victims, and praises in the house of the Lord. And all the multitude offered victims, and praises, and holocausts with a devout mind.
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 holocausts which the multitude offered, was seventy bullocks, a hundred rams, and two hundred lambs.
33 Houve, tambem de coisas consagradas, seiscentos bois e tres mil ovelhas.
And they consecrated to the Lord six hundred oxen, and three thousand sheep.
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 were not enough to flay the holocausts: wherefore the Levites their brethren helped them, till the work was ended, and priests were sanctified, for the Levites are sanctified with an easier rite 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.
So there were many holocausts, and the fat of peace offerings, and the libations of holocausts: and the service of the house of the Lord was completed.
36 E Ezequias, e todo o povo se alegraram, de que Deus tinha preparado o povo; porque apressuradamente se fez esta obra.
And Ezechias, and all the people rejoiced because the ministry of the Lord was accomplished. For the resolution of doing this thing was taken suddenly.
