2 Crônicas 23
1 Mas no sétimo ano Joiada se esforçou, e tomou consigo em aliança aos comandantes de cem, Azarias, filho de Jeroão, e a Ismael, filho de Joanã, e a Azarias, filho de Obede, e a Maaseias, filho de Adaías, e a Elisafate, filho de Zicri;
And in the seventh year Joiada being encouraged, took the captains of hundreds, to wit, Azarias the son of Jeroham, and Ismahel the son of Johanan, and Azarias the son of Obed, and Maasias the son of Adaias, and Elisaphat the son of Zechri: and made a covenant with them.
2 Os quais rodeando por Judá, juntaram os levitas de todas as cidades de Judá, e aos príncipes das famílias de Israel, e vieram a Jerusalém.
And they went about Juda, and gathered together the Levites out of all the cities of Juda, and the chiefs of the families of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.
3 E toda a multidão fez aliança com o rei na casa de Deus. E ele lhes disse: Eis que o filho do rei, o qual reinará, como o SENHOR o tem dito dos filhos de Davi.
And all the multitude made a covenant with the king in the house of God: and Joiada said to them: Behold the king’s son shall reign, as the Lord hath said of the sons of David.
4 O que haveis de fazer é: a terceira parte de vós, os que entram de semana, estarão de porteiros com os sacerdotes e os levitas;
And this is the thing that you shall do:
5 E a terceira parte, à casa do rei; e a terceira parte, à porta do fundamento: e todo o povo estará nos pátios da casa do SENHOR.
A third part of you that come to the sabbath, of the priests, and of the Levites, and of the porters, shall be at the gates: and a third part at the king’s house: and a third at the gate that is called the Foundation: but let all the rest of the people be in the courts of the house of the Lord.
6 E ninguém entre na casa do SENHOR, a não ser os sacerdotes e levitas que servem: estes entrarão, porque estão consagrados; e todo o povo fará a guarda do SENHOR.
And let no one come into the house of the Lord, but the priests, and they that minister of the Levites: let them only come in, because they are sanctified: and let all the rest of the people keep the watches of the Lord.
7 E os levitas rodearão ao rei por todas as partes, e cada um terá suas armas na mão; e qualquer um que entrar na casa, morra: e estareis com o rei quando entrar, e quando sair.
And let the Levites be round about the king, every man with his arms; (and if any other come into the temple, let him be slain; ) and let them be with the king, both coming in, and going out.
8 E os levitas e todo Judá o fizeram tudo como o havia mandado o sacerdote Joiada: e tomou cada um os seus, os que entravam de semana, e os que saíam o sábado: porque o sacerdote Joiada não deu licença às companhias.
So the Levites, and all Juda did according to all that Joiada the high priest bad commanded: and they took every one his men that were under him, and that came in by the course of the sabbath, with those who had fulfilled the sabbath, and were to go out. For Joiada the high priest permitted not the companies to depart, which were accustomed to succeed one another every week.
9 Deu também o sacerdote Joiada aos comandantes de cem as lanças, paveses e escudos que haviam sido do rei Davi, que estavam na casa de Deus;
And Joiada the priest gave to the captains the spears, and the shields, and targets of king David, which he had dedicated in the house of the Lord.
10 E pôs em ordem a todo o povo, tendo cada um sua espada na mão, desde o canto direito do templo até o esquerdo, até o altar e a casa, em derredor do rei por todas as partes.
And he set all the people with swords in their hands from the right side of the temple, to the left side of the temple, before the altar, and the temple, round about the king.
11 Então tiraram ao filho do rei, e puseram-lhe a coroa e o testemunho, e fizeram-lhe rei; e Joiada e seus filhos lhe ungiram, dizendo logo: Viva o rei!
And they brought out the king’s son, and put the crown upon him, and the testimony, and gave him the law to hold in his hand, and they made him king: and Joiada the high priest and his sons anointed him: and they prayed for him, and said: God save the king.
12 E quando Atalia ouviu o estrondo da gente que corria, e dos que bendiziam ao rei, veio ao povo à casa do SENHOR;
Now when Athalia heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came in to the people, into the temple of the Lord.
13 E olhando, viu ao rei que estava junto a sua coluna à entrada, e os príncipes e os trombetas junto ao rei, e que todo o povo da terra fazia alegrias, e soavam buzinas, e cantavam com instrumentos de música os que sabiam louvar. Então Atalia rasgou seus vestidos, e disse: Traição! Traição!
And when she saw the king standing upon the step in the entrance, and the princes, and the companies about him, and all the people of the land rejoicing, and sounding with trumpets, and playing on instruments of divers kinds, and the voice of those that praised, she rent her garments, and said: Treason, treason.
14 E tirando o sacerdote Joiada os comandantes de cem e capitães do exército, disse-lhes: Tirai-a fora do recinto; e o que a seguir, morra à espada: porque o sacerdote havia mandado que não a matassem na casa do SENHOR.
And Joiada the high priest going out to the captains, and the chiefs of the army, said to them: Take her forth without the precinct of the temple, and when she is without let her be killed with the sword. For the priest commanded that she should not be killed in the house of the Lord.
15 Eles, pois, a detiveram, e logo que havia ela passado a entrada da porta dos cavalos da casa do rei, ali a mataram.
And they laid hold on her by the neck: and when she was come within the horse gate of the palace, they killed her there.
16 E Joiada fez pacto entre si e todo o povo e o rei, que seriam povo do SENHOR.
And Joiada made a covenant between himself and all the people, and the king, that they should be the people of the Lord.
17 Depois disto entrou todo o povo no templo de Baal, e derrubaram-no, e também seus altares; e fizeram pedaços suas imagens, e mataram diante dos altares a Matã, sacerdote de Baal.
And all the people went into the house of Baal, and destroyed it: and they broke down his altars and his idols: and they slew Mathan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18 Logo ordenou Joiada os ofícios na casa do SENHOR sob a mão dos sacerdotes e levitas, segundo Davi os havia distribuído na casa do SENHOR, para oferecer ao SENHOR os holocaustos, como está escrito na lei de Moisés, com alegria e cantares, conforme a ordenação de Davi.
And Joiada appointed overseers in the house of the Lord, under the hands of the priests, and the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of the Lord: to offer holocausts to the Lord, as it is written in the law of Moses, with joy and singing, according to the disposition of David.
19 Pôs também porteiros às portas da casa do SENHOR, para que por nenhuma via entrasse nenhum imundo.
He appointed also porters in the gates of the house of the Lord, that none who was unclean in any thing should enter in.
20 Tomou depois os comandantes de cem, e os principais, e os que governavam o povo; e a todo o povo da terra, e levou ao rei da casa do SENHOR; e vindo até o meio da porta maior da casa do rei, assentaram ao rei sobre o trono do reino.
And he took the captains of hundreds, and the most valiant men, and the chiefs of the people, and all the people of the land, and they brought down the king from the house of the Lord, and brought him through the upper gate into the king’s house, and set him on the royal throne.
21 E todo o povo daquela terra se alegrou; e a cidade ficou em paz, depois de terem matado Atalia à espada.
And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet: but Athalia was slain with the sword.
