2 Reis 10

1 E Achab tinha setenta filhos em Samaria: e Jehu escreveu cartas, e as enviou a Samaria, aos chefes de Jizreel, aos anciãos, e aos aios de Achab, dizendo:

And Achaab [had] seventy sons in Samaria. And Ju wrote a letter, and sent it into Samaria to the rulers of Samaria, and to the elders, and to the guardians of [the children of] Achaab, saying.

2 Logo, em chegando a vós esta carta, pois estão comvosco os filhos de vosso senhor, como tambem os carros, e os cavallos, e a cidade fortalecida, e as armas,

Now then, as soon as this letter shall have reached you, whereas [there are] with you the sons of your master, and with you chariots and horses, and strong cities, and arms,

3 Olhae pelo melhor e mais recto dos filhos de vosso senhor, o qual ponde sobre o throno de seu pae, e pelejae pela casa de vosso senhor.

do you accordingly look out the best and fit among your master's sons, and set him on the throne of his father, and fight for the house of your master.

4 Porém elles temeram muitissimo, e disseram: Eis que dois reis não poderam parar diante d'elle: como pois poderemos nós resistir-lhe?

And they feared greatly, and said, Behold, two kings stood not before him: and how shall we stand?

5 Então o que tinha cargo da casa, e o que tinha cargo da cidade, e os anciãos, e os aios enviaram a Jehu, dizendo: Teus servos somos, e tudo quanto nos disseres faremos; a ninguem poremos rei: faze o que for bom aos teus olhos.

So they that were over the house, and they that were over the city, and the elders and the guardians, sent to Ju, saying, We also [are] your servants, and whatever you shall say to us we will do; we will not make [any] man king: we will do that which is right in your eyes.

6 Então segunda vez lhe escreveu outra carta, dizendo: Se sois meus, e ouvirdes a minha voz, tomae as cabeças dos homens, filhos de vosso senhor, e ámanhã, a este tempo vinde a mim a Jizreel (e os filhos do rei, setenta homens, estavam com os grandes da cidade, que os mantinham.)

And Ju wrote them a second letter, saying, If you [are] for me, and listen to my voice, take the heads of the men your master's sons, and bring [them] to me at this time to-morrow in Jezrael. Now the sons of the king were seventy men; these great men of the city brought them up.

7 Succedeu pois que, chegada a elles a carta, tomaram os filhos do rei, e os mataram, setenta homens: e pozeram as suas cabeças n'uns cestos, e lh'as mandaram a Jizreel.

And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king's sons, and killed them, [even] seventy men, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him at Jezrael.

8 E um mensageiro veiu, e lhe annunciou dizendo: Trouxeram as cabeças dos filhos do rei. E elle disse: Ponde-as em dois montões á entrada da porta, até ámanhã.

And a messenger came and told [him], saying, They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said, Lay them [in] two heaps by the door of the gate until the morning.

9 E succedeu que pela manhã, saindo elle, parou, e disse a todo o povo: Vós sois justos: eis que eu conspirei contra o meu senhor, e o matei; mas quem feriu a todos estes?

And the morning came, and he went forth, and stood, and said to all the people, You are righteous: behold, I conspired against my master, and killed him: but who killed all these?

10 Sabei pois agora que, da palavra do Senhor, que o Senhor fallou contra a casa de Achab, nada cairá em terra, porque o Senhor tem feito o que fallou pelo ministerio de seu servo Elias.

See now that there shall not fall to the ground anything of the word of the Lord which the Lord spoke against the house of Achaab: for the Lord has performed all that he spoke of by the hand of his servant Eliu.

11 Tambem Jehu feriu a todos os restantes da casa de Achab em Jizreel, como tambem a todos os seus grandes, e os seus conhecidos, e seus sacerdotes, até que nenhum lhe deixou ficar de resto.

And Ju struck all that were left of the house of Achaab in Jezrael, and all his great men, and his acquaintance, and his priests, so as not to leave him [any] remnant.

12 Então se levantou e partiu, e foi a Samaria. E, estando no caminho, em Beth-eked dos pastores,

And he arose and went to Samaria, [and] he [was] in the house of sheep-shearing in the way.

13 Jehu achou os irmãos de Achazias, rei de Judah, e disse: Quem sois vós? E elles disseram: Os irmãos de Achazias somos; e descemos a saudar os filhos do rei e os filhos da rainha.

And Ju found the brethren of Ochozias king of Juda, and said, Who [are] you? And they said, We [are] the brethren of Ochozias, and we have come down to salute the sons of the king, and the sons of the queen.

14 Então disse elle: Apanhae-os vivos. E elles os apanharam vivos, e os mataram junto ao poço de Beth-eked, quarenta e dois homens; e a nenhum d'elles deixou de resto.

And he said, Take them alive. And they killed them at the shearing-house, forty and two men: he left not a man of them.

15 E, partindo d'ali, encontrou a Jonadab, filho de Recab, que lhe vinha ao encontro, o qual saudou e lhe disse: Recto é o teu coração, como o meu coração é com o teu coração? E disse Jonadab: É. Então se é, dá-me a mão. E deu-lhe a mão, e fel-o subir comsigo ao carro.

And he went thence and found Jonadab the son of Rechab [coming] to meet him; and he saluted him, and Ju said to him, Is your heart right with my heart, as my heart [is] with your heart? And Jonadab said, It is. And Ju said, If it is then, give me your hand. And he gave him his hand, and he took him up to him into the chariot.

16 E disse: Vae comigo, e verás o meu zelo para com o Senhor. E o pozeram no seu carro.

And he said to him, Come with me, and see me zealous for the Lord. And he caused him to sit in his chariot.

17 E, chegando a Samaria, feriu a todos os que ficaram de Achab em Samaria, até que o destruiu, conforme a palavra do Senhor, que dissera a Elias.

And he entered into Samaria, and struck all that were left of Achaab in Samaria, until he had utterly destroyed him, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Eliu.

18 E ajuntou Jehu a todo o povo, e disse-lhe: Pouco serviu Achab a Baal; Jehu porém muito o servirá.

And Ju gathered all the people, and said to them, Achaab served Baal a little; Ju shall serve him much.

19 Pelo que chamae-me agora todos os prophetas de Baal, todos os seus servos e todos os seus sacerdotes; não falte nenhum, porque tenho um grande sacrificio a Baal; todo aquelle que faltar não viverá. Porém Jehu fazia isto com astucia, para destruir os servos de Baal.

Now then do all [you] the prophets of Baal call all his servants and his priests to me; let not a man be lacking: for I have a great sacrifice [to offer] to Baal; every one who shall be missing shall die. But Ju did it in subtilty, that he might destroy the servants of Baal.

20 Disse mais Jehu: Consagrae a Baal uma assembléa solemne. E a apregoaram.

And Ju said, Sanctify a solemn festival to Baal, and they made a proclamation.

21 Tambem Jehu enviou por todo o Israel: e vieram todos os servos de Baal, e nenhum homem d'elles ficou que não viesse: e entraram na casa de Baal, e encheu-se a casa de Baal, d'um lado ao outro.

And Ju sent throughout all Israel, saying, Now then let all [Baal's] servants, and all his priests, and all his prophets [come], let none be lacking: for I am going to offer a great sacrifice; whoever shall be missing, shall not live. So all the servants of Baal came, and all his priests, and all his prophets: there was not one left who came not. And they entered into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was filled from one end to the other.

22 Então disse ao que tinha cargo das vestimentas: Tira as vestimentas para todos os servos de Baal. E elle lhes tirou para fóra as vestimentas.

And he said to the man who was over the house of the wardrobe, Bring forth a robe for all the servants of Baal. And the keeper of the robes brought forth to them.

23 E entrou Jehu com Jonadab, filho de Recab, na casa de Baal, e disse aos servos de Baal: Examinae, e vede bem, que porventura nenhum dos servos do Senhor aqui haja comvosco, senão sómente os servos de Baal.

And Ju and Jonadab the son of Rechab entered into the house of Baal, and said to the servants of Baal, Search, and see whether there is among you any of the servants of the Lord, or only the servants of Baal, by themselves.

24 E, entrando elles a fazerem sacrificios e holocaustos, Jehu preparou da parte de fóra oitenta homens, e disse-lhes: Se escapar algum dos homens que eu entregar em vossas mãos, a vossa vida será pela vida d'elle.

And he went in to offer sacrifices and whole burnt offerings; and Ju set for himself eighty men without, and said, Every man who shall escape of the men whom I bring into your hand, the life of him [that spares him] shall go for his life.

25 E succedeu que, acabando de fazer o holocausto, disse Jehu aos da sua guarda, e aos capitães: Entrae, feri-os, não escape nenhum. E os feriram ao fio da espada; e os da guarda e os capitães os lançaram fóra, e se foram á cidade, á casa de Baal.

And it came to pass, when he had finished offering the whole burnt offering, that Ju said to the footmen and to the officers, Go you in and kill them; let not a man of them escape. So they struck them with the edge of the sword, and the footmen and the officers cast [the bodies] forth, and went to the city of the house of Baal.

26 E tiraram as estatuas da casa de Baal, e as queimaram.

And they brought out the pillar of Baal, and burnt it.

27 Tambem quebraram a estatua de Baal: e derrubaram a casa de Baal, e fizeram d'ella latrinas, até ao dia d'hoje.

And they tore down the pillars of Baal, and made his house a draught-house until this day.

28 E assim Jehu destruiu a Baal de Israel.

So Ju abolished Baal out of Israel.

29 Porém não se apartou Jehu de seguir os peccados de Jeroboão, filho de Nebat, que fez peccar a Israel, a saber: dos bezerros d'oiro, que estavam em Bethel e em Dan.

Nevertheless Ju departed not from following the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who led Israel to sin: [these were] the golden heifers in Baethel and in Dan.

30 Pelo que disse o Senhor a Jehu: Porquanto bem obraste em fazer o que é recto aos meus olhos e, conforme tudo quanto eu tinha no meu coração, se fizesse á casa de Achab, teus filhos até á quarta geração se assentarão no throno de Israel.

And the Lord said to Ju, Because of all your deeds wherein you have acted well in doing that which was right in my eyes, according to all things which you have done to the house of Achaab [as they were] in my heart, your sons to the fourth generation shall sit upon the throne of Israel.

31 Mas Jehu não teve cuidado de andar com todo o seu coração na lei do Senhor Deus de Israel, nem se apartou dos peccados de Jeroboão, que fez peccar a Israel.

But Ju took no heed to walk in the law of the Lord God of Israel with all his heart: he departed not from following the sins of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin.

32 N'aquelles dias começou o Senhor a diminuir os termos d'Israel; porque Hazael os feriu em todas as fronteiras d'Israel,

In those days the Lord began to cut Israel short; and Azael struck them in every coast of Israel;

33 Desde o Jordão até ao nascente do sol, a toda a terra de Gilead; os gaditas, e os rubenitas, e os manassitas, desde Aroer, que está junto ao ribeiro d'Arnon, a saber, Gilead, e Basan.

from Jordan eastward all the land of Galaad belonging to the Gadites, of Gaddi and that of Ruben, and of Manasses, from Aroer, which is on the brink of the brook of Arnon, and Galaad and Basan.

34 Ora o mais dos successos de Jehu, e tudo quanto fez, e todo o seu poder, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas d'Israel?

And the rest of the acts of Ju, and all that he did, and all his might, and the wars wherein he engaged, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

35 E Jehu dormiu com seus paes, e o sepultaram em Samaria: e Joachaz, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.

And Ju slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joachaz his son reigned in his stead.

36 E os dias que Jehu reinou sobre Israel em Samaria foram vinte e oito annos.

And the days which Ju reigned over Israel [were] twenty-eight years in Samaria.
