2 Reis 1
1 E depois da morte de Achab, Moab se rebellou contra Israel.
And Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab.
2 E caiu Achazias pelas grades d'um quarto alto, que tinha em Samaria, e adoeceu: e enviou mensageiros, e disse-lhes: Ide, e perguntae a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron, se sararei d'esta doença.
And Ahaziah fell down through the lattice in his upper chamber that was in Samaria, and was sick. And he sent messengers, and said to them, Go, inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I shall recover of this sickness.
3 Mas o anjo do Senhor disse a Elias tesbita: Levanta-te, sobe para encontrar-te com os mensageiros do rei de Samaria: e dize-lhes: Porventura não ha Deus em Israel, que vades consultar a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron?
But the agent of Jehovah said to Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them, Is it because there is no God in Israel that ye go to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?
4 E por isso assim diz o Senhor; Da cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas sem falta morrerás. Então Elias partiu.
Now therefore thus says Jehovah, Thou shall not come down from the bed where thou have gone up, but shall surely die. And Elijah departed.
5 E os mensageiros voltaram para elle; e elle lhes disse: Que ha, que voltastes?
And the messengers returned to him, and he said to them, Why is it that ye are returned?
6 E elles lhe disseram: Um homem nos saiu ao encontro, e nos disse: Ide, voltae para o rei que vos mandou, e dizei-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Porventura não ha Deus em Israel, para que mandes consultar a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron? Portanto da cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas sem falta morrerás.
And they said to him, There came up a man to meet us, and said to us, Go, turn again to the king that sent you, and say to him, Thus says Jehovah, Is it because there is no God in Israel that thou send to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore thou shall not come down from the bed where thou have gone up, but shall surely die.
7 E elle lhes disse: Qual era o trajo do homem que vos veiu ao encontro e vos fallou estas palavras?
And he said to them, What manner of man was he who came up to meet you, and told you these words?
8 E elles lhe disseram: Um homem era vestido de pellos, e com os lombos cingidos d'um cinto de coiro. Então disse elle: É Elias, o tesbita.
And they answered him, He was a hairy man, and girt with a belt of leather about his loins. And he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.
9 Então lhe enviou um capitão de cincoenta: e, subindo a elle, (porque eis que estava assentado no cume do monte), disse-lhe: Homem de Deus, o rei diz: Desce.
Then the king sent to him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him, and, behold, he was sitting on the top of the hill. And he spoke to him, O man of God, the king has said, Come down.
10 Mas Elias respondeu, e disse ao capitão de cincoenta: Se eu pois sou homem de Deus, desça fogo do céu, e te consuma a ti e aos teus cincoenta. Então fogo desceu do céu, e o consumiu a elle e aos seus cincoenta.
And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
11 E tornou a enviar-lhe outro capitão de cincoenta, com os seus cincoenta; este lhe fallou, e disse: Homem de Deus, assim diz o rei: Desce depressa.
And again he sent to him another captain of fifty and his fifty. And he answered and said to him, O man of God, thus has the king said, Come down quickly.
12 E respondeu Elias, e disse-lhe: Se eu sou homem de Deus, desça fogo do céu, e te consuma a ti e aos teus cincoenta. Então fogo de Deus desceu do céu, e o consumiu a elle e aos seus cincoenta.
And Elijah answered and said to them, If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
13 E tornou a enviar outro capitão dos terceiros cincoenta, com os seus cincoenta: então subiu o capitão de cincoenta, e veiu, e poz-se de joelhos diante de Elias, e supplicou-lhe, e disse-lhe: Homem de Deus, seja, peço-te, preciosa aos teus olhos a minha vida, e a vida d'estes cincoenta teus servos.
And again he sent the captain of a third fifty with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and besought him, and said to him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life, and the life of these fifty thy servants, be precious in thy sight.
14 Eis que fogo desceu do céu, e consumiu aquelles dois primeiros capitães de cincoenta, com os seus cincoenta: porém agora seja preciosa aos teus olhos a minha vida.
Behold, there came fire down from heaven, and consumed the two former captains of fifty with their fifties, but now let my life be precious in thy sight.
15 Então o anjo do Senhor disse a Elias: Desce com este, não temas. E levantou-se, e desceu com elle ao rei.
And the agent of Jehovah said to Elijah, Go down with him; do not be afraid of him. And he arose, and went down with him to the king.
16 E disse-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Porque enviaste mensageiros a consultar a Baal-zebub, deus d'Ekron? Porventura é porque não ha Deus em Israel, para consultar a sua palavra? portanto d'esta cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas certamente morrerás.
And he said to him, Thus says Jehovah, Inasmuch as thou have sent messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, is it because there is no God in Israel to inquire of his word? Therefore thou shall not come down from the bed where thou have gone up, but shall surely die.
17 Assim pois morreu, conforme á palavra do Senhor, que Elias fallara; e Jorão começou a reinar no seu logar no anno segundo de Jehorão, filho de Josaphat rei de Judah: porquanto não tinha filho.
So he died according to the word of Jehovah which Elijah had spoken. And Jehoram began to reign in his stead in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, because he had no son.
18 O mais dos feitos de Achazias, que tinha feito, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Israel?
Now the rest of the acts of Ahaziah which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
