2 Crônicas 29
1 Tinha Ezequias vinte e cinco anos de idade, quando começou a reinar e reinou vinte e nove anos em Jerusalém: e era o nome de sua mãe Abia, filha de Zacarias.
Hezekiah began to reign when he was twenty-five years old; he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Abijah; she was the daughter of Zechariah.
2 E fez o que era reto aos olhos do Senhor, conforme a tudo quanto fizera David seu pai.
He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, just as David his father had done.
3 Este, no ano primeiro do seu reinado, no mês primeiro, abriu as portas da casa do Senhor, e as reparou.
In the first year of his reign, in the first month, Hezekiah opened the doors of the house of Yahweh and repaired them.
4 E trouxe os sacerdotes, e os levitas, e os ajuntou na praça oriental,
He brought in the priests and the Levites, and gathered them together into the courtyard on the east side.
5 E lhes disse: Ouvi-me, ó levitas, santificai-vos agora, e santificai a casa do Senhor, Deus de vossos pais, e tirai do santuário a imundícia.
He said to them, “Listen to me, you Levites! Consecrate yourselves, and consecrate the house of Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, and carry away the filthiness from the holy place.
6 Porque nossos pais transgrediram, e fizeram o que era mal aos olhos do Senhor nosso Deus, e o deixaram; e desviaram os seus rostos do tabernáculo do Senhor, e lhe deram as costas.
For our ancestors trespassed and did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh our God; they forsook him, turned away their faces from the place where Yahweh lives, and turned their backs on it.
7 Também fecharam as portas do alpendre, e apagaram as lâmpadas, e não queimaram incenso nem ofereceram holocaustos no santuário, ao Deus de Israel.
Also they shut up the doors of the porch and put out the lamps; they did not burn incense or offer burnt offerings in the holy place to the God of Israel.
8 Pelo que veio grande ira do Senhor sobre Judá e Jerusalém, e os entregou à perturbação, à assolação, e ao assobio, como vós o estais vendo com os vossos olhos.
Therefore the wrath of Yahweh had fallen on Judah and Jerusalem, and he has made them to be an object of terror, of horror, and of scorn, as you can see with your own eyes.
9 Porque eis que nossos pais cairam à espada, e nossos filhos, e nossas filhas, e nossas mulheres por isso estiveram em cativeiro.
This is why our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons, our daughters, and our wives are in captivity for this.
10 Agora me tem vindo ao coração, que façamos um concerto com o Senhor, Deus de Israel; para que se desvie de nós o ardor da sua ira
Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with Yahweh, the God of Israel, so that his fierce anger may turn away from us.
11 Agora, filhos meus, não sejais negligentes; pois o Senhor vos tem escolhido para estardes diante dele para o servirdes, e para serdes seus ministros e queimadores de incenso.
My sons, do not be lazy now, for Yahweh has chosen you to stand before him, to worship him, and that you should be his servants and burn incense.”
12 Então se levantaram os levitas, Mahath, filho d'Amasai, e Joel filho de Azarias, dos filhos dos kohathitas: e dos filhos de Merari, Kis, filho d'Abdi, e Azarias, filho de Jehalelel: e dos gersonitas, Joah, filho de Zimma, e Éden filho de Joah;
Then the Levites arose: Mahath son of Amasai, and Joel son of Azariah, of the people of the Kohathites; and of the people of Merari, Kish son of Abdi, and Azariah son of Jehallelel; and of the Gershonites, Joah son of Zimmah, and Eden son of Joah;
13 E dentre os filhos de Elisaphan, Simri e Jeiel: dentre os filhos d'Asaph, Zacarias e Matthanias:
of the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeuel; and of the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah;
14 E dentre os filhos d'Heman, Jehiel e Simei: e dentre os filhos de Jeduthun, Semaias e Uziel.
of the sons of Heman, Jehuel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.
15 E ajuntaram a seus irmãos, e santificaram-se e vieram conforme ao mandado do rei, pelas palavras do Senhor, para purificarem a casa do Senhor.
They gathered their brothers, they consecrated themselves, and they went in, as the king commanded, following the words of Yahweh, to cleanse the house of Yahweh.
16 E os sacerdotes entraram dentro da casa do Senhor, para a purificar, e tiraram para fora, ao pátio da casa do Senhor, toda a imundícia que acharam no templo do Senhor: e os levitas a tomaram, para a levarem para fora, ao ribeiro de Cedron.
The priests went in to the inner part of the house of Yahweh to cleanse it; they brought out all the filth that they found in the temple of Yahweh into the courtyard of the house. The Levites took it to carry it out to the brook Kidron.
17 Começaram pois a santificar ao primeiro do mês primeiro: e ao oitavo dia do mês vieram ao alpendre do Senhor, e santificaram a casa do Senhor em oito dias: e no dia décimo sexto do primeiro mês acabaram.
Now they began the consecration on the first day of the first month. By the eighth day of the month they reached the porch of Yahweh. Then for eight more days they consecrated the house of Yahweh. On the sixteenth day of the first month they finished.
18 Então entraram para dentro, ao rei Ezequias, e disseram: Já purificamos toda a casa do Senhor, como também o altar do holocausto com todos os seus vasos e a mesa da proposição com todos os seus vasos.
Then they went to Hezekiah, the king, inside the palace and said, “We have cleansed all the house of Yahweh, the altar for burnt offerings with all its implements, and the table of the bread of the presence, with all its implements.
19 Também todos os vasos que o rei Achaz no seu reinado lançou fora, na sua transgressão, já preparamos e santificamos: e eis que estão diante do altar do Senhor
So we have prepared and we have consecrated all the items that King Ahaz removed when he acted unfaithfully during his reign. See, they are in front of the altar of Yahweh.”
20 Então o rei Ezequias se levantou de madrugada, e ajuntou os maiorais da cidade, e subiu à casa do Senhor.
Then Hezekiah the king rose early in the morning and gathered the leaders of the city; he went up to the house of Yahweh.
21 E trouxeram sete novilhos e sete carneiros, e sete cordeiros, e sete bodes, para sacrifício pelo pecado, pelo reino, e pelo santuário, e por Judá, e disse aos filhos de Aarão, os sacerdotes, que os oferecessem sobre o altar do Senhor.
They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs, and seven male goats as a sin offering for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, and for Judah. He commanded the priests, the sons of Aaron, to offer them on the altar of Yahweh.
22 E eles mataram os bois, e os sacerdotes tomaram o sangue e o espargiram sobre o altar: também mataram os carneiros, e espargiram o sangue sobre o altar: semelhantemente mataram os cordeiros, e espargiram o sangue sobre o altar.
So they killed the bulls, and the priests received the blood and sprinkled it on the altar. Then they killed the rams and sprinkled their blood on the altar; and they also killed the lambs and sprinkled their blood on the altar.
23 Então trouxeram os bodes para sacrifício pelo pecado, perante o rei e a congregação, e lhes impuzeram as suas mãos.
They brought the male goats for the sin offering before the king and the assembly; they laid their hands on them.
24 E os sacerdotes os mataram, e com o seu sangue fizeram expiação do pecado sobre o altar, para reconciliar a todo o Israel: porque o rei tinha ordenado que se fizesse aquele holocausto e sacrifício pelo pecado, por todo o Israel.
The priests killed them, and they made a sin offering with their blood on the altar to make atonement for all Israel, for the king had commanded that a burnt offering and a sin offering should be made for all Israel.
25 E pôs os levitas na casa do Senhor com címbalos, com alaúdes, e com harpas, conforme ao mandado de David e de Gad, o vidente do rei, e do profeta Nathan: porque este mandado veio do Senhor, por mão de seus profetas.
Hezekiah placed the Levites in the house of Yahweh with cymbals, harps, and lyres, arranging them by the command of David, Gad, the king's seer, and Nathan, the prophet, for the command was from Yahweh by means of his prophets.
26 Estavam pois os levitas em pé com os instrumentos de David, e os sacerdotes com as trombetas.
The Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
27 E deu ordem Ezequias que oferecessem o holocausto sobre o altar, e ao tempo em que começou o holocausto, começou também o canto do Senhor, com as trombetas e com os instrumentos de David, rei de Israel.
Hezekiah commanded them to offer the burnt offering on the altar. When the burnt offering began, the song of Yahweh began also, with the trumpets, together with the instruments of David, king of Israel.
28 E toda a congregação se prostrou, quando cantavam o canto, e as trombetas se tocavam: tudo isto até o holocausto se acabar.
All the assembly worshiped, the singers sang, and the trumpeters played; all this continued until the burnt offering was finished.
29 E acabando de o oferecer, o rei e todos quantos com ele se acharam se prostraram e adoraram.
When they had finished the offerings, the king and all who were present with him bowed and worshiped.
30 Então disse o rei Ezequias, e os maiorais, aos levitas que louvassem ao Senhor com as palavras de David, e d'Asaph, o vidente. E o louvaram com alegria e se inclinaram e adoraram.
Moreover, Hezekiah, the king, and the leaders commanded the Levites to sing praises to Yahweh with the words of David and of Asaph, the seer. They sang praises with gladness, and they bowed down and worshiped.
31 E respondeu Ezequias, e disse: Agora vos consagrastes a vós mesmos ao Senhor; chegai-vos e trazei sacrifícios e ofertas de louvor à casa do Senhor. E a congregação trouxe sacrifícios e ofertas de louvor, e todo o voluntário de coração, holocaustos.
Then Hezekiah said, “Now you have consecrated yourselves to Yahweh. Come here and bring sacrifices and thank offerings into the house of Yahweh.” The assembly brought sacrifices and thank offerings, and all who had a willing heart brought burnt offerings.
32 E o número dos holocaustos, que a congregação trouxe, foi de setenta bois, cem carneiros, duzentos cordeiros: tudo isto em holocausto para o Senhor.
The number of the burnt offerings that the assembly brought was seventy bulls, one hundred rams, and two hundred male lambs. All these were for a burnt offering to Yahweh.
33 Houve, também de coisas consagradas, seiscentos bois e três mil ovelhas.
The consecrated offerings were six hundred oxen and three thousand sheep.
34 Eram porém os sacerdotes mui poucos, e não podiam esfolar a todos os holocaustos; pelo que seus irmãos os levitas os ajudaram, até a obra se acabar, e até que os outros sacerdotes se santificaram; porque os levitas foram mais retos de coração, para se santificarem, do que os sacerdotes.
But the priests were too few to skin all the burnt offerings, so their brothers, the Levites, helped them until the work was done, and until the priests could consecrate themselves, for the Levites had been more careful to consecrate themselves than the priests.
35 E houve também holocaustos em abundância, com a gordura das ofertas pacíficas, e com as ofertas de licor para os holocaustos. Assim se estabeleceu o ministério da casa do Senhor.
In addition, there were very many burnt offerings; they were performed with the fat of the fellowship offerings, and there were drink offerings for every burnt offering. So the service of the house of Yahweh was set in order.
36 E Ezequias, e todo o povo se alegraram, de que Deus tinha preparado o povo; porque apressuradamente se fez esta obra.
Hezekiah rejoiced, and all the people also, because of what God had prepared for the people, for the work had been done quickly.
