2 Reis 16

1 No ano dezesete de Peka, filho de Remalias, começou a reinar Achaz, filho de Jothão, rei de Judá.

In the seventeenth year of Pekah, the son of Remaliah: Ahaz, the son of Jotham, reigned as king of Judah.

2 Tinha Achaz vinte anos de idade quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezeseis anos em Jerusalém, e não fez o que era reto aos olhos do Senhor seu Deus, como David, seu pai.

Ahaz was twenty years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was pleasing in the sight of the Lord, his God, as his father David did.

3 Porque andou no caminho dos reis de Israel: e até a seu filho fez passar pelo fogo, segundo as abominações dos gentios que o Senhor lançára fora de diante dos filhos de Israel.

Instead, he walked in the way of the kings of Israel. Moreover, he even consecrated his son, making him pass through fire, in accord with the idols of the nations that the Lord destroyed before the sons of Israel.

4 Também sacrificou, e queimou incenso nos altos e nos outeiros, como também debaixo de todo o arvoredo.

Also, he was immolating victims, and burning incense, in the high places, and on the hills, and under every leafy tree.

5 Então subiu Resin, rei da Síria, com Peka, filho de Remalias, rei de Israel, a Jerusalém, à peleja; e cercaram a Achaz, porém não o puderam vencer.

Then Rezin, the king of Syria, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah, the king of Israel, ascended to do battle against Jerusalem. And they besieged Ahaz, but they were not able to overcome him.

6 Naquele mesmo tempo Resin, rei da Síria, restituiu Elath à Síria, e lançou fora de Elath os judeus: e os siros vieram a Elath, e habitaram ali até ao dia de hoje.

At that time, Rezin, the king of Syria, restored Elath to Syria, and he expelled the Judeans from Elath. And the Idumeans went into Elath, and they have lived there, even to this day.

7 E Achaz enviou mensageiros a Tiglath-pileser, rei da Assyria, dizendo: Eu sou teu servo e teu filho; sobe, e livra-me das mãos do rei da Síria, e das mãos do rei de Israel, que se levantam contra mim.

Then Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser, the king of the Assyrians, saying: “I am your servant, and I am your son. Ascend and accomplish my salvation from the hand of the king of Syria, and from the hand of the king of Israel, who have risen up together against me.”

8 E tomou Achaz a prata e o ouro que se achou na casa do Senhor e nos tesouros da casa do rei, e mandou um presente ao rei da Assyria.

And when he had collected the silver and the gold that could be found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasuries of the king, he sent it as a gift to the king of the Assyrians.

9 E o rei da Assyria lhe deu ouvidos; pois o rei da Assyria subiu contra Damasco, e tomou-a, e levou-os presos a Kir, e matou a Resin.

And he agreed to his will. For the king of the Assyrians ascended against Damascus, and he laid waste to it. And he carried away its inhabitants to Cyrene. But Rezin he killed.

10 Então o rei Achaz foi a Damasco, a encontrar-se com Tiglath-pileser, rei da Assyria, e, vendo um altar que estava em Damasco, o rei Achaz enviou ao sacerdote Urias a semelhança do altar, e o modelo, conforme toda a sua feição.

And king Ahaz traveled to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser, the king of the Assyrians. And when he had seen the altar of Damascus, king Ahaz sent to Uriah, the priest, its pattern and likeness, according to all of its work.

11 E Urias, o sacerdote, edificou um altar conforme tudo o que o rei Achaz tinha ordenado de Damasco; assim o fez o sacerdote Urias, entretanto que o rei Achaz viesse de Damasco.

And Uriah, the priest, constructed an altar in accord with all that king Ahaz had commanded from Damascus. Uriah, the priest, did so, until king Ahaz arrived from Damascus.

12 Vindo pois o rei de Damasco, o rei viu o altar; e o rei se chegou ao altar, e sacrificou nele.

And when the king had arrived from Damascus, he saw the altar, and he venerated it. And he went up and immolated holocausts, with his own sacrifice.

13 E queimou o seu holocausto, e a sua oferta de manjares, e derramou a sua libação: e espargiu o sangue dos seus sacrifícios pacíficos naquele altar.

And he offered libations, and he poured out the blood of the peace offerings, which he had offered, upon the altar.

14 Porém o altar de cobre, que estava perante o Senhor, tirou de diante da casa, de entre o seu altar e a casa do Senhor, e pô-lo ao lado do seu altar, da banda do norte.

But the altar of brass, which was before the Lord, he took away from the face of the temple, and from the place of the altar, and from the place of the temple of the Lord. And he positioned it at the side of the altar, toward the north.

15 E o rei Achaz mandou a Urias o sacerdote, dizendo: No grande altar queima o holocausto de pela manhã, como também a oferta de manjares de noite, e o holocausto do rei, e a sua oferta de manjares, e o holocausto de todo o povo da terra, a sua oferta de manjares, e as suas ofertas de bebida e todo o sangue dos holocaustos, e todo o sangue dos sacrifícios espargirás nele; porém o altar de cobre será para mim, para inquirir dele.

Also, king Ahaz instructed Uriah, the priest, saying: “Upon the great altar, offer the morning holocaust, and the evening sacrifice, and the holocaust of the king, and his sacrifice, and the holocaust of the entire people of the land, and their sacrifices. But their libations, and all the blood of the holocaust, and all the blood of the victim, you shall pour out upon it. Then truly, the altar of brass shall be prepared for use at my will.”

16 E fez Urias, o sacerdote, conforme tudo quanto o rei Achaz lhe ordenara.

And so Uriah, the priest, acted in accord with all that king Ahaz had instructed to him.

17 E o rei Achaz cortou as cintas das bases, e de cima delas tomou a pia, e o mar tirou de sobre os bois de cobre, que estavam debaixo dele, e pô-lo sobre um soalho de pedra.

Then king Ahaz took away the engraved bases, and the basin that was upon them. And he took down the sea from the bronze oxen, which were holding it up. And he positioned it upon a layer of pavement stone.

18 Também a coberta do sábado, que edificaram na casa, e a entrada de fora do rei, retirou da casa do Senhor, por causa do rei da Assyria.

Also, the canopy for the Sabbath, which he had built in the temple, and the exterior entrance of the king, he converted into the temple of the Lord, because of the king of the Assyrians.

19 Ora o mais dos sucessos de Achaz, e o que fez, porventura não está escrito no livro das crônicas dos reis de Judá?

Now the rest of the words of Ahaz that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?

20 E dormiu Achaz com seus pais, e foi sepultado junto a seus pais, na cidade de David: e Ezequias, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.

And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David. And Hezekiah, his son, reigned in his place.
