2 Reis 21
1 Tinha Manasseh doze anos de idade quando começou a reinar, e cincoênta e cinco anos reinou em Jerusalém: e era o nome de sua mãe Hephsiba.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Hephzibah.
2 E fez o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor, conforme as abominações dos gentios que o Senhor desterrara de suas possessões de diante dos filhos de Israel.
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, like the disgusting things of the nations whom Yahweh had driven out before the people of Israel.
3 Porque tornou a edificar os altos que Ezequias, seu pai, tinha destruído, e levantou altares a Baal, e fez um bosque como o que fizera Achab, rei de Israel, e se inclinou diante de todo o exército dos céus, e os serviu.
For he rebuilt the high places that Hezekiah his father had destroyed, and he built altars for Baal, made an Asherah pole, as Ahab king of Israel had done, and he bowed down to all the stars of heaven and worshiped them.
4 E edificou altares na casa do Senhor, de que o Senhor tinha dito: Em Jerusalém porei o meu nome.
Manasseh built altars in the house of Yahweh, although Yahweh had commanded, “It is in Jerusalem that my name will be forever.”
5 Também edificou altares a todo o exército dos céus em ambos os átrios da casa do Senhor.
He built altars for all the stars of heaven in the two courtyards of the house of Yahweh.
6 E até fez passar a seu filho pelo fogo, e adivinhava pelas nuvens, e era agoureiro, e ordenou adivinhos e feiticeiros: e proseguiu em fazer mal aos olhos do Senhor, para o provocar à ira.
He caused his son to pass through the fire, he performed sorcery and divination and consulted with those who talked with the dead and with those who talked with spirits. He did much evil in the sight of Yahweh, provoking him to anger.
7 Também pôs uma imagem de escultura, do bosque que tinha feito, na casa de que o Senhor dissera a David e a Salomão, seu filho: nesta casa e em Jerusalém, que escolhi de todas as tribos de Israel, porei o meu nome para sempre.
The carved figure of Asherah that he had made, he placed it in the house of Yahweh. It was about this house that Yahweh had spoken to David and Solomon his son; he had said: “It is in this house and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel, that I will put my name forever.
8 E mais não farei mover o pé de Israel desta terra que tenho dado a seus pais; contanto somente que tenham cuidado de fazer conforme tudo o que lhes tenho ordenado, e conforme toda a lei que Moisés, meu servo, lhes ordenou.
I will not cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land that I gave to their ancestors, if they will only be careful to obey all that I have commanded them, and to follow all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.”
9 Porém não ouviram; porque Manasseh de tal modo os fez errar, que fizeram pior do que as nações, que o Senhor tinha destruído de diante dos filhos de Israel.
But the people did not listen, and Manasseh led them to do evil even more than the nations that Yahweh had destroyed before the people of Israel.
10 Então o Senhor falou pelo ministério de seus servos, os profetas, dizendo:
So Yahweh spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,
11 Porquanto Manasseh, rei de Judá, fez estas abominações, fazendo pior do que quanto fizeram os amorreus, que antes dele foram, e até também a Judá fez pecar com os seus ídolos;
“Because Manasseh king of Judah has done these disgusting things, and has acted wickedly more than all that the Amorites who were before him did, and has also made Judah sin with his idols,
12 Por isso assim diz o Senhor Deus de Israel: Eis que hei de trazer um mal sobre Jerusalém e Judá, que qualquer que ouvir, lhe ficarão retinindo ambas as orelhas.
therefore Yahweh, the God of Israel, says this: Look, I am about to bring such evil on Jerusalem and Judah that whoever hears of it, both his ears will tingle.
13 E estenderei sobre Jerusalém o cordel de Samaria e o prumo da casa de Achab: e limparei a Jerusalém, como quem limpa a escudela, a limpa e a vira sobre a sua face.
I will stretch over Jerusalem the measuring line used against Samaria, and the plumb line used against the house of Ahab; I will wipe Jerusalem clean, as a man wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.
14 E desampararei o resto da minha herança, entrega-los-ei na mão de seus inimigos; e far-se-ão roubo e despojo para todos os seus inimigos.
I will throw off the remnant of my inheritance and give them into the hand of their enemies. They will become victims and plunder for all their enemies,
15 Porquanto fizeram o que parecia mal aos meus olhos, e me provocaram à ira, desde o dia em que seus pais sairam do Egito até hoje.
because they have done what is evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their ancestors came out of Egypt, to this day.”
16 De mais disto, também Manasseh derramou muitíssimo sangue inocente, até que encheu a Jerusalém de um ao outro extremo, a fora o seu pecado, com que fez pecar a Judá, fazendo o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor.
Moreover, Manasseh shed much innocent blood, until he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another with death. This was in addition to the sin by which he made Judah to sin, when they did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh.
17 Quanto ao mais dos filhos de Manasseh, e a tudo quanto fez mais, e ao seu pecado, que pecou, porventura não está escrito no livro das crônicas dos reis de Judá?
As for the other matters concerning Manasseh, all that he did, and the sin that he committed, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
18 E Manasseh dormiu com seus pais, e foi sepultado no jardim da sua casa, no jardim de Uza: e Amon, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.
Manasseh slept with his ancestors and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza. Amon his son became king in his place.
19 Tinha Amon vinte e dois anos de idade quando começou a reinar, e dois anos reinou em Jerusalém: e era o nome de sua mãe Mesullemeth, filha d'Harus, de Jotba.
Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Meshullemeth; she was the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
20 E fez o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor, como fizera Manasseh, seu pai.
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as Manasseh his father had done.
21 Porque andou em todo o caminho em que andara seu pai: e serviu os ídolos, a que seu pai tinha servido, e se inclinou diante deles.
Amon followed in all the way that his father had walked in and worshiped the idols that his father worshiped, and bowed down to them.
22 Assim deixou ao Senhor, Deus de seus pais, e não andou no caminho do Senhor.
He abandoned Yahweh, the God of his fathers, and did not walk in the way of Yahweh.
23 E os servos de Amon conspiraram contra ele, e mataram o rei em sua casa.
The servants of Amon conspired against him and put the king to death in his own house.
24 Porém o povo da terra feriu a todos os que conspiraram contra o rei Amon: e o povo da terra pôs a Josias, seu filho, rei em seu lugar.
But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made Josiah his son king in his place.
25 Quanto ao mais dos sucessos de Amon, que fez, porventura não está escrito no livro das crônicas dos reis de Judá?
As for the other matters concerning Amon that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
26 E o sepultaram na sua sepultura, no jardim de Usa: e Josias, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.
The people buried him in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, and Josiah his son became king in his place.
