2 Reis 3
1 E Jorão, filho de Achab, começou a reinar sobre Israel em Samaria no decimo oitavo anno de Josaphat, rei de Judah: e reinou doze annos.
And Joram the son of Achaab began to reign in Israel in the eighteenth year of Josaphat king of Juda, and he reigned twelve years.
2 E fez o que era mau aos olhos do Senhor; porém não como seu pae, nem como sua mãe; porque tirou a estatua de Baal, que seu pae fizera.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, only not as his father, nor as his mother: and he removed the pillars of Baal which his father had made.
3 Comtudo adheriu aos peccados de Jeroboão, filho de Nebat, que fizera peccar a Israel; não se apartou d'elles.
Only he adhered to the sin of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin; he departed not from it.
4 Então Mesa, rei dos moabitas, era contratante de gado, e pagava ao rei de Israel cem mil cordeiros, e cem mil carneiros com a sua lã.
And Mosa king of Moab was a sheep-master, and he rendered to the king of Israel in the beginning [of the year], a hundred thousand lambs, and a hundred thousand rams, with the wool.
5 Succedeu porém que, morrendo Achab, se rebellou o rei dos moabitas contra o rei de Israel.
And it came to pass, after the death of Achaab, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
6 Por isso Jorão ao mesmo tempo saiu de Samaria, e fez revista de todo o Israel.
And king Joram went forth in that day out of Samaria, and numbered Israel.
7 E foi, e enviou a Josaphat, rei de Judah, dizendo: O rei dos moabitas se rebellou contra mim; irás tu comigo á guerra contra os moabitas? E disse elle: Subirei; e eu serei como tu, o meu povo como o teu povo, e os meus cavallos como os teus cavallos.
And he went and sent to Josaphat king of Juda, saying, The king of Moab has rebelled against me: will you go with me against Moab to war? And he said, I will go up: you are as I, I am as you; as my people, so [is] your people, as my horses, so [are] your horses.
8 E elle disse: Por que caminho subiremos? Então disse elle: Pelo caminho do deserto d'Edom.
And he said, What way shall I go up? and he said, The way of the wilderness of Edom.
9 E partiu o rei de Israel, e o rei de Judah, e o rei de Edom; e andaram rodeando com uma marcha de sete dias, e o exercito, e o gado que os seguia não tinham agua.
And the king of Israel went, and the king of Juda, and the king of Edom: and they fetched a compass of seven days' journey; and there was no water for the army, and for the cattle that went with them.
10 Então disse o rei de Israel: Ah! que o Senhor chamou a estes tres reis, para os entregar nas mãos dos moabitas.
And the king of Israel said, Alas! that the Lord should have called the three kings on their way, to give them into the hand of Moab.
11 E disse Josaphat: Não ha aqui algum propheta do Senhor, para que consultemos ao Senhor por elle? Então respondeu um dos servos do rei de Israel, e disse: Aqui está Eliseo, filho de Saphat, que deitava agua sobre as mãos de Elias.
And Josaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may enquire of the Lord by him? And one of the servants of the king of Israel answered and said, [There is] here Elisaie son of Saphat, who poured water on the hands of Eliu.
12 E disse Josaphat: Está com elle a palavra do Senhor. Então o rei de Israel, e Josaphat e o rei de Edom desceram a elle.
And Josaphat said, He has the word of the Lord. And the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda, and the king of Edom, went down to him.
13 Mas Eliseo disse ao rei de Israel: Que tenho eu comtigo? Vae aos prophetas de teu pae e aos prophetas de tua mãe. Porém o rei d'Israel lhe disse: Não, porque o Senhor chamou a estes tres reis para os entregar nas mãos dos moabitas.
And Elisaie said to the king of Israel, What have I to do with you? go to the prophets of your father, and the prophets of your mother. And the king of Israel said to him, Has the Lord called the three kings to deliver them into the hands of Moab?
14 E disse Eliseo: Vive o Senhor dos Exercitos, em cuja presença estou, que se eu não respeitasse a presença de Josaphat, rei de Judah, não olharia para ti nem te veria.
And Elisaie said, [As] the Lord of hosts before whom I stand lives, unless I regarded the presence of Josaphat the king of Juda, I would not have looked on you, nor seen you.
15 Ora, pois, trazei-me um tangedor. E succedeu que, tangendo o tangedor, veiu sobre elle a mão do Senhor.
And now fetch me a harper. And it came to pass, as the harper harped, that the hand of the Lord came upon him.
16 E disse: Assim diz o Senhor: Fazei n'este valle muitas covas;
And he said, Thus says the Lord, Make this valley full of trenches.
17 Porque assim diz o Senhor: Não vereis vento, e não vereis chuva; todavia este valle se encherá de tanta agua, que bebereis vós, e o vosso gado e os vossos animaes.
For thus says the Lord, You shall not see wind, neither shall you see rain, yet this valley shall be filled with water, and you, and your flocks, and your cattle shall drink.
18 E ainda isto é pouco aos olhos do Senhor: tambem entregará elle os moabitas nas vossas mãos.
And this [is] a light [thing] in the eyes of the Lord: I will also deliver Moab into your hand.
19 E ferireis a todas as cidades fortes, e a todas as cidades escolhidas, e todas as boas arvores cortareis, e entupireis todas as fontes d'agua, e damnificareis com pedras todos os bons campos.
And you shall strike every strong city, and you shall cut down every good tree, and you shall stop all wells of water, and spoil every good piece [of land] with stones.
20 E succedeu que pela manhã, offerecendo-se a offerta de manjares, eis que vinham as aguas pelo caminho d'Edom: e a terra se encheu d'agua.
And it came to pass in the morning, when the sacrifice was offered, that, behold! waters came from the way of Edom, and the land was filled with water.
21 Ouvindo pois todos os moabitas que os reis tinham subido para pelejarem contra elles, convocaram a todos os que cingiam cinto e d'ahi para cima, e pozeram-se ás fronteiras.
And all Moab heard that the three kings were come up to fight against them; and they cried out on every [side, even] all that were girded with a girdle, and they said, Ho! and stood upon the border.
22 E, levantando-se de madrugada, e saindo o sol sobre as aguas, viram os moabitas defronte d'elles as aguas vermelhas como o sangue.
And they rose early in the morning, and the sun rose upon the waters, and Moab saw the waters on the opposite side red as blood.
23 E disseram: Isto é sangue; certamente que os reis se destruiram á espada e se mataram um ao outro! agora pois á preza, moabitas!
And they said, This [is] the blood of the sword; and the kings have fought, and each man has struck his neighbour; now then to the spoils, Moab.
24 Porém, chegando elles ao arraial de Israel, os israelitas se levantaram, e feriram os moabitas, os quaes fugiram diante d'elles: e ainda os feriram nas suas terras, ferindo ali tambem os moabitas.
And they entered into the camp of Israel; and Israel arose and struck Moab, and they fled from before them; and they went on and struck Moab as they went.
25 E arrazaram as cidades, e cada um lançou a sua pedra em todos os bons campos, e os entulharam, e entupiram todas as fontes d'aguas, e cortaram todas as boas arvores, até que só em Kir-hareseth deixaram ficar as pedras, mas os fundeiros a cercaram e a feriram.
And they razed the cities, and cast every man his stone on every good piece [of land] and filled it; and they stopped every well, and cut down every good tree, until they left [only] the stones of the wall cast down; and the slingers compassed [the land], and struck it.
26 Mas, vendo o rei dos moabitas que a peleja prevalecia contra elle, tomou comsigo setecentos homens que arrancavam espada, para romperem contra o rei de Edom, porém não poderam.
And the king of Moab saw that the battle prevailed against him; and he took with him seven hundred men that drew sword, to cut through to the king of Edom: and they could not.
27 Então tomou a seu filho primogenito, que havia de reinar em seu logar, e o offereceu em holocausto sobre o muro; pelo que houve grande indignação em Israel: por isso retiraram-se d'elle, e voltaram para a sua terra.
And he took his oldest son whom he had designed to reign in his stead, and offered him up for a whole burnt offering on the walls. And there was a great indignation against Israel; and they departed from him, and returned to their land.
