2 Reis 11
1 Vendo pois Athalia, mãe de Achazias, que seu filho era morto, levantou-se, e destruiu toda a semente real.
Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.
2 Mas Josebath, filha do rei Jorão, irmã de Achazias, tomou a Joás, filho de Achazias, e o furtou dentre os filhos do rei, aos quais matavam, e o pos, a ele e à sua ama na recâmara, e o escondeu d'Athalia, e assim não o mataram.
But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him away from among the king’s sons that were slain, even him and his nurse, [and put them] in the bedchamber; and they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slain;
3 E esteve com ela escondido na casa do Senhor seis anos: e Athalia reinava sobre a terra.
And he was with her hid in the house of Jehovah six years. And Athaliah reigned over the land.
4 E no sétimo ano enviou Joiada, e tomou os centuriões, com os capitães, e com os da guarda, e os meteu consigo na casa do Senhor: e fez com eles um concerto e os ajuramentou na casa do Senhor, e lhes mostrou o filho do rei.
And in the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the captains over hundreds of the Carites and of the guard, and brought them to him into the house of Jehovah; and he made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of Jehovah, and showed them the king’s son.
5 E deu-lhes ordem, dizendo: Esta é a obra que vós haveis de fazer: uma terça parte de vós, que entra no sábado, fará a guarda da casa do rei:
And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that ye shall do: a third part of you, that come in on the sabbath, shall be keepers of the watch of the king’s house;
6 E outra terça parte estará à porta Sur; e a outra terça parte à porta detraz dos da guarda: assim fareis a guarda desta casa, afastando a todos.
and a third part shall be at the gate Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard: so shall ye keep the watch of the house, and be a barrier.
7 E as duas partes de vós, a saber, todos os que saem no sábado, farão a guarda da casa do Senhor junto ao rei.
And the two companies of you, even all that go forth on the sabbath, shall keep the watch of the house of Jehovah about the king.
8 E rodeareis o rei, cada um com as suas armas nas mãos, e aquele que entrar entre as fileiras o matarão; e vós estareis com o rei quando sair e quando entrar.
And ye shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he that cometh within the ranks, let him be slain: and be ye with the king when he goeth out, and when he cometh in.
9 Fizeram pois os centuriões conforme tudo quanto ordenara o sacerdote Joiada, tomando cada um os seus homens, tanto aos que entravam no sábado como aos que saiam no sábado; e vieram ao sacerdote Joiada.
And the captains over hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they took every man his men, those that were to come in on the sabbath, with those that were to go out on the sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
10 E o sacerdote deu aos centuriões as lanças, e os escudos que haviam sido do rei David, que estavam na casa do Senhor.
And the priest delivered to the captains over hundreds the spears and shields that had been king David’s, which were in the house of Jehovah.
11 E os da guarda se puseram, cada um com as armas na mão, desde o lado direito da casa até ao lado esquerdo da casa, da banda do altar, e da banda da casa, junto ao rei em redor.
And the guard stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, along by the altar and the house, by the king round about.
12 Então ele tirou o filho do rei, e lhe pôs a coroa, e lhe deu o testemunho; e o fizeram rei, e o ungiram, e bateram as mãos, e disseram: Viva o rei!
Then he brought out the king’s son, and put the crown upon him, and [gave him] the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, [Long] live the king.
13 E Athalia, ouvindo a voz dos da guarda e do povo, entrou ao povo na casa do Senhor.
And when Athaliah heard the noise of the guard [and of] the people, she came to the people into the house of Jehovah:
14 E olhou, e eis que o rei estava junto à coluna, conforme o costume, e os capitães e as trombetas junto ao rei, e todo o povo da terra estava alegre e tocava as trombetas: então Athalia rasgou os seus vestidos, e clamou: Traição! Traição!
and she looked, and, behold, the king stood by the pillar, as the manner was, and the captains and the trumpets by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew trumpets. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and cried, Treason! treason!
15 Porém o sacerdote Joiada deu ordem aos centuriões que comandavam as tropas, e disse-lhes: tirai-a para fora das fileiras, e a quem a seguir matai-o à espada. Porque o sacerdote disse: Não a matem na casa do Senhor.
And Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds that were set over the host, and said unto them, Have her forth between the ranks; and him that followeth her slay with the sword. For the priest said, Let her not be slain in the house of Jehovah.
16 E lançaram-lhe as mãos a ela, e foi pelo caminho da entrada dos cavalos à casa do rei, e ali a mataram.
So they made way for her; and she went by the way of the horses’ entry to the king’s house: and there was she slain.
17 E Joiada fez um concerto entre o Senhor e o rei e o povo, que seria o povo do Senhor; como também entre o rei e o povo.
And Jehoiada made a covenant between Jehovah and the king and the people, that they should be Jehovah’s people; between the king also and the people.
18 Então todo o povo da terra entrou na casa de Baal, e a derribaram, como também os seus altares, e as suas imagens totalmente quebraram, e a Mattan, sacerdote de Baal, mataram perante os altares: então o sacerdote pôs oficiais sobre a casa do Senhor.
And all the people of the land went to the house of Baal, and brake it down; his altars and his images brake they in pieces thoroughly, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of Jehovah.
19 E tomou os centuriões, e os capitães, e os da guarda, e todo o povo da terra: e conduziram da casa do Senhor o rei, e vieram, pelo caminho da porta dos da guarda, à casa do rei, e se assentou no trono dos reis.
And he took the captains over hundreds, and the Carites, and the guard, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of Jehovah, and came by the way of the gate of the guard unto the king’s house. And he sat on the throne of the kings.
20 E todo o povo da terra se alegrou, e a cidade repousou, depois que mataram a Athalia à espada junto à casa do rei.
So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet. And Athaliah they had slain with the sword at the king’s house.
21 Era Joás da idade de sete anos quando o fizeram rei.
Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
