< 2 Crônicas 16 >
1 No ano trigésimo sexto do reinado d'Asa, Baása, rei de Israel, subiu contra Judá e edificou a Rama, para ninguém deixar sair nem entrar a Asa, rei de Judá.
IN the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
2 Então tirou a Asa a prata e o ouro dos tesouros da casa de Deus, e da casa do rei; e enviou a Benhadad, rei da Síria, que habitava em Damasco, dizendo:
Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the Lord and of the king’s house, and sent to Ben-hadad king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,
3 Aliança há entre mim e ti, como houve entre meu pai e teu: eis que te envio prata e ouro; vai, pois, e aniquila a tua aliança com Baása, rei de Israel, para que se retire de sobre mim.
There is a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent thee silver and gold; go, break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
4 E Benhadad deu ouvidos ao rei Asa, e enviou o capitão dos exércitos que tinha, contra as cidades de Israel, e feriram a Ijon, e a Dan, e a Abelmaim; e a todas as cidades das munições de Naphtali.
And Ben-hadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-maim, and all the store cities of Naphtali.
5 E sucedeu que, ouvindo-o Baása, deixou de edificar a Rama; e descontinuou a sua obra.
And it came to pass, when Baasha heard it, that he left off building of Ramah, and let his work cease.
6 Então o rei Asa tomou a todo o Judá e levaram as pedras de Rama, e a sua madeira, com que Baása edificara; e edificou com isto a Geba e a Mispah.
Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha was building; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah.
7 Naquele mesmo tempo veio Hanani, o vidente, a Asa rei de Judá, e disse-lhe: Porquanto confiaste no rei da Síria, e não confiaste no Senhor teu Deus, portanto o exército do rei da Síria escapou da tua mão.
And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said unto him, Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria, and not relied on the Lord thy God, therefore is the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thine hand.
8 Porventura não foram os ethiopes e os lybios um grande exército, com muitíssimos carros e cavaleiros? confiando tu porém no Senhor, ele os entregou nas tuas mãos.
Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubims a huge host, with very many chariots and horsemen? yet, because thou didst rely on the Lord, he delivered them into thine hand.
9 Porque, quanto ao Senhor, seus olhos passam por toda a terra, para mostrar-se forte para com aqueles cujo coração é perfeito para com ele; nisto pois fizeste loucamente porque desde agora haverá guerras contra ti.
For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
10 Porém Asa se indignou contra o vidente, e lançou-o na casa do tronco; porque disto grandemente se alterou contra ele: também Asa no mesmo tempo oprimiu a alguns do povo.
Then Asa was wroth with the seer, and put him in a prison house; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. And Asa oppressed some of the people the same time.
11 E eis que os sucessos d'Asa, tanto os primeiros, como os últimos, estão escritos no livro dos reis de Judá e Israel.
And, behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
12 E caiu Asa doente de seus pés no ano trinta e nove do seu reinado: grande por extremo era a sua enfermidade, e contudo na sua enfermidade não buscou ao Senhor, mas antes aos médicos.
And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the Lord, but to the physicians.
13 E Asa dormiu com seus pais; e morreu no ano quarenta e um do seu reinado.
And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.
14 E o sepultaram no seu sepulcro, que tinha cavado para si na cidade de David, havendo-o deitado na cama, que se enchera de cheiros e especiarias preparadas segundo a arte dos perfumistas: e fizeram-lhe queima mui grande.
And they buried him in his own sepulchres, which he had made for himself in the city of David, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odours and divers kinds of spices prepared by the apothecaries’ art: and they made a very great burning for him.
