2 Crônicas 16
1 No ano trinta e seis do reinado de Asa, subiu Baasa rei de Israel contra Judá, e edificou a Ramá, para não deixar sair nem entrar a ninguém ao rei Asa, rei de Judá.
And in the six and thirtieth year of his kingdom, Baasa the king of Israel came up against Juda, and built a wall about Rama, that no one might safely go out or come in of the kingdom of Asa.
2 Então tirou Asa a prata e o ouro dos tesouros da casa do SENHOR e da casa real, e enviou a Ben-Hadade rei da Síria, que estava em Damasco, dizendo:
Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the Lord, and of the king’s treasures, and sent to Benadad king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:
3 Haja aliança entre mim e ti, como a havia entre meu pai e teu pai; eis que eu te enviei prata e ouro, para que venhas e desfaças a aliança que tens com Baasa rei de Israel, a fim de que se retire de mim.
There is a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father, wherefore I have sent thee silver and gold, that thou mayst break thy league with Baasa king of Israel, and make him depart from me.
4 E consentiu Ben-Hadade com o rei Asa, e enviou os capitães de seus exércitos à cidades de Israel: e atacaram a Ijom, Dã, e Abel-Maim, e as cidades fortes de Naftali.
And then Benadad heard this, he sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel: and they took Ahion, and Dan, and Abelmaim, and all the walled cities of Nephtali.
5 E ouvindo isto Baasa, cessou de edificar a Ramá, e deixou sua obra.
And when Baasa heard of it, he left off the building of Rama, and interrupted his work.
6 Então o rei Asa tomou a todo Judá, e levaram-se de Ramá a pedra e madeira com que Baasa edificava, e com ela edificou a Geba e Mispá.
Then king Asa took all Juda, and they carried away from Rama the stones, and the timber that Baasa had prepared for the building: and he built with them Gabaa, and Maspha.
7 Naquele tempo veio Hanani vidente a Asa rei de Judá, e disse-lhe: Por quanto te apoiaste no rei de Síria, e não te apoiaste no SENHOR teu Deus, por isso o exército do rei da Síria escapou de tuas mãos.
At that time Hanani the prophet came to Asa king of Juda, and said to him: Because thou hast had confidence in the king of Syria, and not in the Lord thy God, therefore hath the army of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hand.
8 Os etíopes e os líbios, não eram um exército numerosíssimo, com carros e muitos cavaleiros? Contudo, porque te apoiaste no SENHOR, ele os entregou em tuas mãos.
Were not the Ethiopians, and the Libyans much more numerous in chariots, and horsemen, and an exceeding great multitude: yet because thou trustedst in the Lord, he delivered them into thy hand?
9 Porque os olhos do SENHOR contemplam toda a terra, para corroborar aos que têm coração íntegro com ele. Loucamente fizeste nisso; porque de agora em diante haverá guerra contra ti.
For the eyes of the Lord behold all the earth, and give strength to those who with a perfect heart trust in him. Wherefore thou hast done foolishly, and for this cause from this time wars shall arise against thee.
10 E irou-se Asa contra o vidente, lançou-o na casa do cárcere, porque foi em extremo incomodado por causa disto. E oprimiu Asa naquele tempo alguns do povo.
And Asa was angry with the seer, and commanded him to be put in prison: for he was greatly enraged because of this thing: and he put to death many of the people at that time.
11 Mas eis que, os feitos de Asa, primeiros e últimos, estão escritos no livro dos reis de Judá e de Israel.
But the works of Asa the first and last are written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
12 E o ano trinta e nove de seu reinado enfermou Asa dos pés para acima, e em sua enfermidade não buscou ao SENHOR, mas sim aos médicos.
And Asa fell sick in the nine and thirtieth year of his reign, of a most violent pain in his feet, and yet in his illness he did not seek the Lord, but rather trusted in the skill of physicians.
13 E descansou Asa com seus pais, e morreu no ano quarenta e um de seu reinado.
And he slept with his fathers: and he died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.
14 E sepultaram-no em seus sepulcros que ele havia feito para si na cidade de Davi; e puseram-no em uma cama, a qual encheram de aromas e artefatos com fragrâncias, preparadas por perfumistas; e fizeram uma grande fogueira em sua homenagem.
And they buried him in his own sepulchre, which he had made for himself in the city of David: and they laid him on his bed full of spices and odoriferous ointments, which were made by the art of the perfumers, and they burnt them over him with very great pomp.
