2 Crônicas 17
1 E reinou em seu lugar Josafá seu filho, o qual prevaleceu contra Israel.
And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead, and strengthened himself against Israel.
2 E pôs exército em todas as cidades fortes de Judá, e colocou gente de guarnição, em terra de Judá, e também nas cidades de Efraim que seu pai Asa havia tomado.
And he placed forces in all the fortified cities of Judah, and set garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of Ephraim that Asa his father had taken.
3 E foi o SENHOR com Josafá, porque andou nos primeiros caminhos de Davi seu pai, e não buscou aos baalins;
And Jehovah was with Jehoshaphat, for he walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not unto the Baals;
4 mas buscou o Deus de seu pai, e andou em seus mandamentos, e não segundo as obras de Israel.
but he sought the God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.
5 Por isso o SENHOR confirmou o reino em sua mão, e todo Judá deu presentes a Josafá; e teve riquezas e glória em abundância.
And Jehovah established the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah gave gifts to Jehoshaphat; and he had riches and honour in abundance.
6 E animou-se seu coração nos caminhos do SENHOR, e tirou os altos e os bosques de Judá.
And he took courage in the ways of Jehovah; moreover, he removed the high places and Asherahs out of Judah.
7 Ao terceiro ano de seu reinado enviou seus príncipes Bene-Hail, Obadias, Zacarias, Natanael e Micaías, para que ensinassem nas cidades de Judá;
And in the third year of his reign he sent his princes, Ben-hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethaneel, and Micah, to teach in the cities of Judah;
8 E com eles aos levitas, Semaías, Netanias, Zebadias, e Asael, e Semiramote, e Jônatas, e Adonias, e Tobias, e Tobadonias, levitas; e com eles a Elisama e a Jorão, sacerdotes.
and with them the Levites: Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jonathan, and Adonijah, and Tobijah, and Tob-Adonijah, Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, the priests.
9 E ensinaram em Judá, tendo consigo o livro da lei do SENHOR, e rodearam por todas as cidades de Judá ensinando ao povo.
And they taught in Judah, and had the book of the law of Jehovah with them; and they went about through all the cities of Judah, and taught among the people.
10 E caiu o pavor do SENHOR sobre todos os reinos das terras que estavam ao redor de Judá; que não ousaram fazer guerra contra Josafá.
And the terror of Jehovah was upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Judah, and they made no war against Jehoshaphat.
11 E dos filisteus traziam presentes a Josafá, e tributos de prata. Os árabes também lhe trouxeram gado: sete mil e setecentos carneiros e sete mil e setecentos bodes.
And some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat gifts and tribute-silver. The Arabians also brought him flocks, seven thousand seven hundred rams, and seven thousand seven hundred he-goats.
12 Ia pois Josafá crescendo altamente: e edificou em Judá fortalezas e cidades de depósitos.
And Jehoshaphat waxed exceeding great; and he built in Judah castles and store-cities.
13 Teve ademais muitas obras nas cidades de Judá, e homens de guerra muito valentes em Jerusalém.
And he had much business in the cities of Judah; and men of war, strong and valiant, in Jerusalem.
14 E este é o número deles segundo as casas de seus pais: em Judá, chefes dos milhares: o general Adna, e com ele trezentos mil homens muito esforçados;
And these are the numbers of them according to their fathers' houses. Of Judah the captains of thousands: Adnah the captain, and with him three hundred thousand mighty men of valour;
15 Depois dele, o chefe Joanã, e com ele duzentos e oitenta mil;
and next to him was Johanan the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand;
16 Depois este, Amasias filho de Zicri, o qual se havia oferecido voluntariamente ao SENHOR, e com ele duzentos mil homens valentes;
and next to him, Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself to Jehovah; and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valour.
17 De Benjamim, Eliada, homem muito valente, e com ele duzentos mil armados de arco e escudo;
And of Benjamin: Eliada, a mighty man of valour, and with him two hundred thousand, armed with bow and shield;
18 Depois este, Jozabade, e com ele cento e oitenta mil preparados para a guerra.
and next to him was Jehozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand ready prepared for war.
19 Estes eram servos do rei, sem os que havia o rei posto nas cidades de guarnição por toda Judá.
These were they that waited on the king, besides those that the king had put in the fortified cities throughout Judah.
