2 Reis 1
1 E depois da morte de Achab, Moab se rebelou contra Israel.
Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab.
2 E caiu Achazias pelas grades dum quarto alto, que tinha em Samaria, e adoeceu: e enviou mensageiros, e disse-lhes: Ide, e perguntai a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron, se sararei desta doença.
Ahaziah fell down through the lattice in his upper room that was in Samaria, and was sick. So he sent messengers, and said to them, “Go, enquire of Baal Zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I will recover of this sickness.”
3 Mas o anjo do Senhor disse a Elias tesbita: Levanta-te, sobe para encontrar-te com os mensageiros do rei de Samaria: e dize-lhes: Porventura não há Deus em Israel, que vades consultar a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron?
But the LORD’s angel said to Elijah the Tishbite, “Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and tell them, ‘Is it because there is no God in Israel that you go to enquire of Baal Zebub, the god of Ekron?
4 E por isso assim diz o Senhor; Da cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas sem falta morrerás. Então Elias partiu.
Now therefore the LORD says, “You will not come down from the bed where you have gone up, but you will surely die.”’” Then Elijah departed.
5 E os mensageiros voltaram para ele; e ele lhes disse: Que há, que voltastes?
The messengers returned to him, and he said to them, “Why is it that you have returned?”
6 E eles lhe disseram: Um homem nos saiu ao encontro, e nos disse: Ide, voltai para o rei que vos mandou, e dizei-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Porventura não há Deus em Israel, para que mandes consultar a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron? Portanto da cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas sem falta morrerás.
They said to him, “A man came up to meet us, and said to us, ‘Go, return to the king who sent you, and tell him, “The LORD says, ‘Is it because there is no God in Israel that you send to enquire of Baal Zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not come down from the bed where you have gone up, but you will surely die.’”’”
7 E ele lhes disse: Qual era o trajo do homem que vos veio ao encontro e vos falou estas palavras?
He said to them, “What kind of man was he who came up to meet you and told you these words?”
8 E eles lhe disseram: Um homem era vestido de pelos, e com os lombos cingidos dum cinto de couro. Então disse ele: É Elias, o tesbita.
They answered him, “He was a hairy man, and wearing a leather belt around his waist.” He said, “It’s Elijah the Tishbite.”
9 Então lhe enviou um capitão de cincoênta: e, subindo a ele, (porque eis que estava assentado no cume do monte), disse-lhe: Homem de Deus, o rei diz: Desce.
Then the king sent a captain of fifty with his fifty to him. He went up to him; and behold, he was sitting on the top of the hill. He said to him, “Man of God, the king has said, ‘Come down!’”
10 Mas Elias respondeu, e disse ao capitão de cincoênta: Se eu pois sou homem de Deus, desça fogo do céu, e te consuma a ti e aos teus cincoênta. Então fogo desceu do céu, e o consumiu a ele e aos seus cincoênta.
Elijah answered to the captain of fifty, “If I am a man of God, then let fire come down from the sky and consume you and your fifty!” Then fire came down from the sky, and consumed him and his fifty.
11 E tornou a enviar-lhe outro capitão de cincoênta, com os seus cincoênta; este lhe falou, e disse: Homem de Deus, assim diz o rei: Desce depressa.
Again he sent to him another captain of fifty with his fifty. He answered him, “Man of God, the king has said, ‘Come down quickly!’”
12 E respondeu Elias, e disse-lhe: Se eu sou homem de Deus, desça fogo do céu, e te consuma a ti e aos teus cincoênta. Então fogo de Deus desceu do céu, e o consumiu a ele e aos seus cincoênta.
Elijah answered them, “If I am a man of God, then let fire come down from the sky and consume you and your fifty!” Then God’s fire came down from the sky, and consumed him and his fifty.
13 E tornou a enviar outro capitão dos terceiros cincoênta, com os seus cincoênta: então subiu o capitão de cincoênta, e veio, e pôs-se de joelhos diante de Elias, e suplicou-lhe, e disse-lhe: Homem de Deus, seja, peço-te, preciosa aos teus olhos a minha vida, e a vida destes cincoênta teus servos.
Again he sent the captain of a third fifty with his fifty. The third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and begged him, and said to him, “Man of God, please let my life and the life of these fifty of your servants be precious in your sight.
14 Eis que fogo desceu do céu, e consumiu aqueles dois primeiros capitães de cincoênta, com os seus cincoênta: porém agora seja preciosa aos teus olhos a minha vida.
Behold, fire came down from the sky and consumed the last two captains of fifty with their fifties. But now let my life be precious in your sight.”
15 Então o anjo do Senhor disse a Elias: Desce com este, não temas. E levantou-se, e desceu com ele ao rei.
The LORD’s angel said to Elijah, “Go down with him. Don’t be afraid of him.” Then he arose and went down with him to the king.
16 E disse-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Porque enviaste mensageiros a consultar a Baal-zebub, deus de Ekron? Porventura é porque não há Deus em Israel, para consultar a sua palavra? portanto desta cama, a que subiste, não descerás, mas certamente morrerás.
He said to him, “The LORD says, ‘Because you have sent messengers to enquire of Baal Zebub, the god of Ekron, is it because there is no God in Israel to enquire of his word? Therefore you will not come down from the bed where you have gone up, but you will surely die.’”
17 Assim pois morreu, conforme à palavra do Senhor, que Elias falara; e Jorão começou a reinar no seu lugar no ano segundo de Jehorão, filho de Josaphat rei de Judá: porquanto não tinha filho.
So he died according to the LORD’s word which Elijah had spoken. Jehoram began to reign in his place in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, because he had no son.
18 O mais dos feitos de Achazias, que tinha feito, porventura não está escrito no livro das crônicas dos reis de Israel?
Now the rest of the acts of Ahaziah which he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
