< 1 Reis 14 >

1 Naquele tempo adoeceu Ahias filho de Jeroboão.
In that time Abijah, the son of Jeroboam, became ill.
2 E disse Jeroboão a sua mulher: Levanta-te agora, e disfarça-te, para que não conheçam que és mulher de Jeroboão: e vai a Silo. Eis que lá está o profeta Ahias, o qual falou de mim, que eu seria rei sobre este povo.
And Jeroboam said to his wife: “Rise up, and change clothing, so that you will not be recognized to be the wife of Jeroboam. And go to Shiloh, where the prophet Ahijah is, who said to me that I should reign over this people.
3 E toma na tua mão dez pães, e bolos, e uma botija de mel, e vai a ele: ele te declarará o que há de suceder a este menino.
Also, take in your hand ten loaves, and dried bread, and a container of honey, and go to him. For he will reveal to you what will happen to this boy.”
4 E a mulher de Jeroboão assim fez, e se levantou, e foi a Silo, e entrou na casa de Ahias: e já Ahias não podia ver, porque os seus olhos estavam já escurecidos por causa da sua velhice.
The wife of Jeroboam did just as he had said. And rising up, she went away to Shiloh. And she arrived at the house of Ahijah. But he was unable to see, because his eyes had dimmed due to old age.
5 Porém o Senhor disse a Ahias: Eis que a mulher de Jeroboão vem consultar-te sobre seu filho, porque está doente: assim e assim lhe falarás: e há de ser que, entrando ela, fingirá ser outra.
Then the Lord said to Ahijah: “Behold, the wife of Jeroboam enters, so that she may consult you over her son, who is ill. You shall say one thing and another to her.” Therefore, as she was entering, not presenting herself to be who she was,
6 E sucedeu que, ouvindo Ahias o ruído de seus pés, entrando ela pela porta, disse ele: Entra, mulher de Jeroboão: porque te disfarças assim? pois eu sou enviado a ti com duras novas.
Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, entering through the door. And he said: “Enter, O wife of Jeroboam. Why do you pretend to be someone you are not? But I have been sent to you with harsh news.
7 Vai, dize a Jeroboão: Assim diz o Senhor Deus de Israel: Porquanto te levantei do meio do povo, e te pus por chefe sobre o meu povo de Israel,
Go, and tell Jeroboam: ‘Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Although I exalted you from the midst of the people, and I granted to you to be the leader over my people Israel,
8 E rasguei o reino da casa de David, e a ti to dei, e tu não foste como o meu servo David, que guardou os meus mandamentos e que andou após mim com todo o seu coração para fazer somente o que parecia reto aos meus olhos,
and I tore the kingdom away from the house of David, and I gave it to you, yet you have not been like David, my servant, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with his whole heart, doing what was pleasing in my sight.
9 Antes tu fizeste o mal, pior do que todos os que foram antes de ti; e foste, e fizeste outros deuses e imagens de fundição, para provocar-me à ira, e me lançaste para traz das tuas costas;
Instead, you have worked evil beyond all those who were before you. And you have made for yourself strange gods and molten images, so that you provoke me to anger. And you have cast me behind your back.
10 Portanto, eis que trarei mal sobre a casa de Jeroboão, e destruirei de Jeroboão todo o homem até ao menino, tanto o encerrado como o desamparado em Israel; e lançarei fora os descendentes da casa de Jeroboão, como se lança fora o esterco, até que de todo se acabe
For this reason, behold, I will lead evils over the house of Jeroboam, and I will strike down from Jeroboam that which urinates against a wall, and that which is lame, and that which is last in Israel. And I will cleanse that which remains of the house of Jeroboam, just as dung is usually cleaned away, until there is purity.
11 Quem morrer a Jeroboão na cidade os cães o comerão, e o que morrer no campo as aves do céu o comerão, porque o Senhor o disse.
Those who will have died of Jeroboam in the city, the dogs will devour them. And those who will have died in the field, the birds of the heavens will devour them. For the Lord has spoken.’
12 Tu pois levanta-te, e vai-te para tua casa: entrando os teus pés na cidade, o menino morrerá.
Therefore, you must rise up, and go to your house. And in the city, at the very entrance of your feet, the boy will die.
13 E todo o Israel o pranteará, e o sepultará; porque este só entrará em sepultura de Jeroboão, porquanto se achou nele coisa boa para com o Senhor Deus de Israel em casa de Jeroboão.
And all of Israel will mourn him, and will bury him. For he alone of Jeroboam shall be brought into a sepulcher. For concerning him, there has been found a good word from the Lord, the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam.
14 O Senhor porém levantará para si um rei sobre Israel, que destruirá a casa de Jeroboão no mesmo dia: mas que será também agora?
But the Lord has appointed for himself a king over Israel, who will strike down the house of Jeroboam, in this day and in this time.
15 Também o Senhor ferirá a Israel como se move a cana nas águas; e arrancará a Israel desta boa terra que tinha dado a seus pais, e o espargirá para além do rio; porquanto fizeram os seus bosques, provocando o Senhor à ira.
And the Lord God shall strike Israel, just as a reed is usually shaken in the water. And he will uproot Israel from this good land, which he gave to their fathers. And he will winnow them beyond the river. For they have made for themselves sacred groves, so that they have provoked the Lord.
16 E entregará a Israel por causa dos pecados de Jeroboão, o qual pecou, e fez pecar a Israel.
And the Lord will hand over Israel, because of the sins of Jeroboam, who has sinned and caused Israel to sin.”
17 Então a mulher de Jeroboão se levantou, e foi, e veio a Tirza: chegando ela ao lumiar da porta, morreu o menino.
And so, the wife of Jeroboam rose up, and she went away. And she arrived at Tirzah. And as she was entering the threshold of the house, the boy died.
18 E o sepultaram, e todo o Israel o pranteou, conforme à palavra do Senhor, a qual dissera pelo ministério de seu servo Ahias, o profeta.
And they buried him, and all of Israel mourned for him, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke by the hand of his servant Ahijah, the prophet.
19 Quanto ao mais dos sucessos de Jeroboão, como guerreou, e como reinou, eis que está escrito no livro das crônicas dos reis de Israel.
Now the rest of the words of Jeroboam, the manner in which he fought, and the manner in which he reigned, behold, these were written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel.
20 E foram os dias que Jeroboão reinou vinte e dois anos: e dormiu com seus pais; e Nadab, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.
And the days during which Jeroboam reigned were twenty-two years. And he slept with his fathers. And Nadab, his son, reigned in his place.
21 E Roboão, filho de Salomão, reinava em Judá: de quarenta e um anos de idade era Roboão quando começou a reinar, e dezesete anos reinou em Jerusalém, na cidade que o Senhor elegera de todas as tribos de Israel para pôr ali o seu nome: e era o nome de sua mãe Naama, amonita.
Now Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he had begun to reign. And he reigned for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that the Lord chose, out of all the tribes of Israel, so that he might place his name there. And the name of his mother was Naamah, an Ammonite.
22 E fez Judá o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor; e o provocaram a zelo, mais do que todos os seus pais fizeram, com os seus pecados que cometeram.
And Judah did evil in the sight of the Lord, and they provoked him beyond all that their fathers had done, by their sins that they committed.
23 Porque também eles edificaram altos, e estátuas, e imagens do bosque sobre todo o alto outeiro e debaixo de toda a árvore verde.
For they, too, built for themselves altars, and statues, and sacred groves, upon every high hill and under every leafy tree.
24 Havia também rapazes escandalosos na terra: fizeram conforme a todas as abominações das nações que o Senhor tinha lançado da sua possessão de diante dos filhos de Israel.
Moreover, the effeminate were in the land, and they committed all the abominations of the peoples that the Lord had destroyed before the face of the sons of Israel.
25 Sucedeu pois que, no quinto ano do rei Roboão, Sisak, rei do Egito, subiu contra Jerusalém,
Then, in the fifth year of the reign of Rehoboam, Shishak, the king of Egypt, ascended against Jerusalem.
26 E tomou os tesouros da casa do Senhor e os tesouros da casa do rei; e ainda tomou tudo; também tomou todos os escudos de ouro que Salomão tinha feito.
And he took away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the royal treasures, and he plundered everything, including the shields of gold that Solomon had made.
27 E em lugar deles fez o rei Roboão escudos de cobre, e os entregou nas mãos dos capitães da guarda que guardavam a porta da casa do rei.
In place of these, king Rehoboam made shields of brass, and he delivered them into the hand of the commanders of the shield bearers, and of those who were keeping the night watch before the gate of the king’s house.
28 E sucedeu que, quando o rei entrava na casa do Senhor, os da guarda os levavam, e os tornavam à câmara dos da guarda.
And when the king entered into the house of the Lord, these were carried by those who held the office to go before him. And afterward, they carried them back to the armory of the shield bearers.
29 Quanto ao mais dos sucessos de Roboão, e a tudo quanto fez, porventura não está escrito no livro das crônicas dos reis de Judá?
Now the rest of the words of Rehoboam, and all that he did, behold, these were written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah.
30 E houve guerra entre Roboão e Jeroboão todos os seus dias.
And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam, during all the days.
31 E Roboão dormiu com seus pais, e foi sepultado com seus pais na cidade de David: e era o nome de sua mãe Naama, amonita: e Abião, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.
And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David. And his mother’s name was Naamah, an Ammonite. And his son Abijam reigned in his place.
