2 Reis 22
1 Tinha Josias oito annos d'edade quando começou a reinar, e reinou trinta e um annos em Jerusalem: e era o nome de sua mãe, Jedida, filha de Adais, de Boskath.
Josiah was eight years old when he had begun to reign. He reigned for thirty-one years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah, from Bozkath.
2 E fez o que era recto aos olhos do Senhor; e andou em todo o caminho de David, seu pae, e não se apartou d'elle nem para a direita nem para a esquerda.
And he did what was pleasing before the Lord, and he walked in all the ways of his father David. He did not turn aside to the right, or to the left.
3 Succedeu pois que, no anno decimo oitavo do rei Josias, o rei mandou ao escrivão Saphan, filho de Asalias, filho de Mesullam, á casa do Senhor, dizendo:
Then, in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe of the temple of the Lord, saying to him:
4 Sobe a Hilkias, o summo sacerdote, para que tome o dinheiro que se trouxe á casa do Senhor, o qual os guardas do umbral da porta ajuntaram do povo,
“Go to Hilkiah, the high priest, so that the money may be put together which has been brought into the temple of the Lord, which the doorkeepers of the temple have collected from the people.
5 E que o dêem na mão dos que teem cargo da obra, e estão encarregados da casa do Senhor; para que o dêem áquelles que fazem a obra que ha na casa do Senhor, para repararem as quebraduras da casa
And let it be given, by those in charge of the house of the Lord, to the workers. And let them distribute it to those who are working in the temple of the Lord in order to repair the surfaces of the temple,
6 Aos carpinteiros, e aos edificadores, e aos pedreiros: e para comprar madeira e pedras lavradas, para repararem a casa.
specifically, to carpenters and masons, and to those who mend gaps, and so that wood may be purchased, and stones from the quarries, in order to repair the temple of the Lord.
7 Porém com elles se não fez conta do dinheiro que se lhes entregara nas suas mãos, porquanto obravam com fidelidade.
Yet truly, let no account be given by them of the money that they receive. Instead, let them have it within their power and trust.”
8 Então disse o summo sacerdote Hilkias, ao escrivão Saphan: Achei o livro da lei na casa do Senhor. E Hilkias deu o livro a Saphan, e elle o leu.
Then Hilkiah, the high priest, said to Shaphan, the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord.” And Hilkiah gave the volume to Shaphan, and he read it.
9 Então o escrivão Saphan veiu ao rei, e referiu ao rei a resposta; e disse: Teus servos ajuntaram o dinheiro que se achou na casa, e o entregaram na mão dos que teem cargo da obra, que estão encarregados da casa do Senhor.
Also, Shaphan, the scribe, went to the king, and reported to him what he had instructed. And he said: “Your servants have brought together the money which was found in the house of the Lord. And they have given it so that it would be distributed to the workers by the overseers of the works of the temple of the Lord.”
10 Tambem Saphan, o escrivão, fez saber ao rei, dizendo: O sacerdote Hilkias me deu um livro. E Saphan o leu diante do rei.
Also, Shaphan, the scribe, explained to the king, saying, “Hilkiah, the priest, gave the book to me.” And when Shaphan had read it before the king,
11 Succedeu pois que, ouvindo o rei as palavras do livro da lei, rasgou os seus vestidos.
and the king had heard the words of the book of the law of the Lord, he tore his garments.
12 E o rei mandou a Hilkias, o sacerdote, e a Ahikam, filho de Saphan, e a Acbor, filho de Micaias, e a Saphan, o escrivão, e a Asaias, o servo do rei, dizendo:
And he instructed Hilkiah, the priest, and Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, and Achbor, the son of Micaiah, and Shaphan, the scribe, and Asaiah, the servant of the king, saying:
13 Ide, e consultae ao Senhor por mim, e pelo povo, e por todo o Judah, ácerca das palavras d'este livro que se achou; porque grande é o furor do Senhor, que se accendeu contra nós; porquanto nossos paes não deram ouvidos ás palavras d'este livro, para fazerem conforme tudo quanto de nós está escripto.
“Go and consult the Lord concerning me, and the people, and all of Judah, about the words of this volume which has been found. For the great wrath of the Lord has been kindled against us because our fathers did not listen to the words of this book, so that they would do all that has been written for us.”
14 Então foi o sacerdote Hilkias, e Ahikam, e Acbor, e Saphan, e Asaias á prophetiza Hulda, mulher de Sallum, filho de Tikva, o filho de Harhas, o guarda das vestiduras (e ella habitava em Jerusalem, na segunda parte, ) e lhe fallaram.
Therefore, Hilkiah, the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah, went to Huldah, the prophetess, the wife of Shallum, the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, the keeper of the vestments, who was living in Jerusalem, in the second part. And they spoke with her.
15 E ella lhes disse: Assim diz o Senhor, o Deus de Israel: Dizei ao homem que vos enviou a mim:
And she responded to them: “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Tell the man who sent you to me:
16 Assim diz o Senhor: Eis que trarei mal sobre este logar, e sobre os seus moradores, a saber: todas as palavras do livro que leu o rei de Judah.
Thus says the Lord: Behold, I will lead evils over this place, and over its inhabitants, all the words of the law that the king of Judah has read.
17 Porquanto me deixaram, e queimaram incenso a outros deuses, para me provocarem á ira por todas as obras das suas mãos, o meu furor se accendeu contra este logar, e não se apagará.
For they have abandoned me, and they have sacrificed to foreign gods, provoking me by all the works of their hands. And so my indignation will be kindled against this place. And it will not be extinguished.
18 Porém ao rei de Judah, que vos enviou a consultar ao Senhor, assim lhe direis: Assim diz o Senhor o Deus de Israel ácerca das palavras, que ouviste:
But to the king of Judah, who sent you so that you would consult the Lord, so shall you say: Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: In so far as you have heard the words of the volume,
19 Porquanto o teu coração se enterneceu, e te humilhaste perante o Senhor, quando ouviste o que fallei contra este logar, e contra os seus moradores, que seria para assolação e para maldição, e que rasgaste os teus vestidos, e choraste perante mim, tambem eu te ouvi, diz o Senhor.
and your heart was terrified, and you humbled yourself before the Lord, listening to the words against this place and its inhabitants, specifically, that they would become an astonishment and a curse, and because you have torn your garments, and have wept before me: I also have heard you, says the Lord.
20 Pelo que eis que eu te ajuntarei a teus paes, e tu serás ajuntado em paz á tua sepultura, e os teus olhos não verão todo o mal que hei de trazer sobre este logar. Então tornaram a trazer ao rei a resposta.
For this reason, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your sepulcher in peace, so that your eyes may not see all the evils that I will bring over this place.”
