2 Reis 12

1 No anno setimo de Jehu começou a reinar Joás, e quarenta annos reinou em Jerusalem: e era o nome de sua mãe Zibia, de Berseba.

In the seventh year of Jehu Jehoash began to reign; and forty years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Zibiah of Beersheba.

2 E fez Joás o que era recto aos olhos do Senhor todos os dias em que o sacerdote Joiada o dirigia.

And Jehoash did that which was right in the sight of the LORD all his days in which Jehoiada the priest instructed him.

3 Tão sómente os altos se não tiraram: porque ainda o povo sacrificava e queimava incenso nos altos.

But the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.

4 E disse Joás aos sacerdotes: Todo o dinheiro das coisas sanctas que se trouxer á casa do Senhor, a saber, o dinheiro d'aquelle que passa o arrolamento, o dinheiro de cada uma das pessoas, segundo a sua avaliação, e todo o dinheiro que trouxer cada um voluntariamente para a casa do Senhor,

And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the dedicated things that is brought into the house of the LORD, even the money of every one that passeth the account, the money of every man’s assessment, and all the money that cometh into any man’s heart to bring into the house of the LORD,

5 Os sacerdotes o recebam, cada um dos seus conhecidos; e elles reparem as quebraduras da casa, segundo toda a quebradura que se achar n'ella.

Let the priests take it to them, every man of his acquaintance: and let them repair the breaches of the house, wherever any breach shall be found.

6 Succedeu porém que, no anno vinte e tres do rei Joás, os sacerdotes ainda não tinham reparado as quebraduras da casa.

But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.

7 Então o rei Joás chamou o sacerdote Joiada e os mais sacerdotes, e lhes disse: Porque não reparaes as quebraduras da casa? Agora, pois, não tomeis mais dinheiro de vossos conhecidos, mas dae-o pelas quebraduras da casa.

Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said to them, Why repair ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore receive no more money of your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house.

8 E consentiram os sacerdotes em não tomarem mais dinheiro do povo, nem em repararem as quebraduras da casa.

And the priests consented to receive no more money of the people, neither to repair the breaches of the house.

9 Porem o sacerdote Joiada tomou uma arca, e fez um buraco na tampa; e a poz ao pé do altar, á mão direita dos que entravam na casa do Senhor: e os sacerdotes que guardavam a entrada da porta mettiam ali todo o dinheiro que se trazia á casa do Senhor.

But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of the LORD: and the priests that kept the door put in it all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD.

10 Succedeu pois que, vendo elles que já havia muito dinheiro na arca, o escrivão do rei subia com o summo sacerdote, e contavam e ensacavam o dinheiro que se achava na casa do Senhor.

And it was so, when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the king’s scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags, and counted the money that was found in the house of the LORD.

11 E o dinheiro, depois de pesado, davam nas mãos dos que faziam a obra, que tinham a seu cargo a casa do Senhor: e elles o distribuiam aos carpinteiros, e aos edificadores que reparavam a casa do Senhor;

And they gave the money, being counted, into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of the LORD: and they paid it out to the carpenters and builders, that wrought upon the house of the LORD,

12 Como tambem aos pedreiros e aos cabouqueiros, e para se comprar madeira e pedras de cantaria para repararem as quebraduras da casa do Senhor, e para tudo quanto para a casa se dava para a repararem.

And to masons, and hewers of stone, and to buy timber and hewed stone to repair the breaches of the house of the LORD, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it.

13 Todavia, do dinheiro que se trazia á casa do Senhor não se faziam nem taças de prata, nem garfos, nem bacias, nem trombetas, nem nenhum vaso de oiro ou vaso de prata para a casa do Senhor.

Yet there were not made for the house of the LORD bowls of silver, snuffers, basons, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of the LORD:

14 Porque o davam aos que faziam a obra, e reparavam com elle a casa do Senhor.

But they gave that to the workmen, and repaired with it the house of the LORD.

15 Tambem não pediam contas aos homens em cujas mãos entregavam aquelle dinheiro, para o dar aos que faziam a obra, porque obravam com fidelidade.

Moreover they reckoned not with the men, into whose hand they delivered the money to be bestowed on workmen: for they dealt faithfully.

16 Mas o dinheiro de sacrificio por delictos, e o dinheiro por sacrificio de peccados, se não trazia á casa do Senhor; porém era para os sacerdotes.

The trespass money and sin money was not brought into the house of the LORD: it was the priests’.

17 Então subiu Hazael, rei da Syria, e pelejou contra Gath, e a tomou: depois Hazael fez rosto a marchar contra Jerusalem.

Then Hazael king of Syria went up, and fought against Gath, and took it: and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.

18 Porém Joás, rei de Judah, tomou todas as coisas sanctas que Josaphat, e Jorão, e Achazias, seus paes, reis de Judah, consagraram, como tambem todo o oiro que se achou nos thesouros da casa do Senhor e na casa do rei: e o mandou a Hazael, rei da Syria; e então se retirou de Jerusalem.

And Jehoash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things, and all the gold that was found in the treasuries of the house of the LORD, and in the king’s house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria: and he went away from Jerusalem.

19 Ora o mais dos successos de Joás, e tudo quanto fez mais, porventura não está escripto no livro das chronicas dos reis de Judah?

And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

20 E levantaram-se os seus servos, e conspiraram contra elle: e feriram a Joás na casa de Millo, que desce para Silla.

And his servants arose, and made a conspiracy, and slew Joash in the house of Millo, which goeth down to Silla.

21 Porque Jozacar, filho de Simeath, e Jozabad, filho de Somer, seus servos, o feriram, e morreu, e o sepultaram com seus paes na cidade de David: e Amasias, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.

For Jozachar the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, smote him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
