< 2 Crônicas 31 >

1 Feitas todas estas coisas, todos os de Israel que se haviam achado ali, saíram pelas cidades de Judá, e quebraram as estátuas e destruíram os bosques, e derrubaram os altos e os altares por todo Judá e Benjamim, e também em Efraim e Manassés,
Now when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the pillars, and hewed down the Asherim, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
2 E definiu Ezequias as repartições dos sacerdotes e dos levitas conforme a suas ordens, cada um segundo seu ofício, os sacerdotes e os levitas para o holocausto e pacíficos, para que ministrassem, para que confessassem e louvassem às portas dos acampamentos do SENHOR.
And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priest and the Levites after their courses, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt-offerings and for peace-offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of the LORD.
3 A contribuição do rei de sua riqueza era holocaustos a manhã e tarde, e holocaustos para os sábados, novas luas, e solenidades, como está escrito na lei do SENHOR.
He appointed also the king's portion of his substance for the burnt-offerings, to wit, for the morning and evening burnt-offerings, and the burnt-offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the appointed seasons, as it is written in the Law of the LORD.
4 Mandou também ao povo que habitava em Jerusalém, que dessem a porção aos sacerdotes e levitas, para que se esforçassem na lei do SENHOR.
Moreover he commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to the law of the LORD.
5 E quando este edito foi divulgado, os filhos de Israel deram muitas primícias de grão, vinho, azeite, mel, e de todos os frutos da terra: trouxeram também os dízimos de todas as coisas em abundância.
And as soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first-fruits of corn, wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.
6 Também os filhos de Israel e de Judá, que habitavam nas cidades de Judá, deram do mesmo modo os dízimos das vacas e das ovelhas: e trouxeram os dízimos do santificado, das coisas que haviam prometido ao SENHOR seu Deus, e puseram-nos por amontoados.
And the children of Israel and Judah, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of hallowed things which were hallowed unto the LORD their God, and laid them by heaps.
7 No mês terceiro começaram a fundar aqueles amontoados, e no mês sétimo acabaram.
In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
8 E Ezequias e os príncipes vieram a ver os amontoados, e bendisseram ao SENHOR, e a seu povo Israel.
And when Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed the LORD, and His people Israel.
9 E perguntou Ezequias aos sacerdotes e aos levitas acerca dos amontoados.
Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
10 E respondeu-lhe Azarias, sumo sacerdote, da casa de Zadoque, e disse: Desde que começaram a trazer a oferta à casa do SENHOR, comemos e nos saciamos, e nos sobrou muito: porque o SENHOR abençoou seu povo, e restou esta abundância.
And Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said: 'Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the LORD, we have eaten and had enough, and have left plenty; for the LORD hath blessed His people; and that which is left is this great store.'
11 Então mandou Ezequias que preparassem câmaras na casa do SENHOR; e prepararam-nas.
Then Hezekiah commanded to prepare chambers in the house of the LORD; and they prepared them.
12 E puseram as primícias e dízimos e as coisas consagradas, fielmente; e deram cargo disso a Conanias levita, o principal, e Simei seu irmão foi o segundo.
And they brought in the offerings and the tithes and the hallowed things faithfully; and over them Conaniah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was second.
13 E Jeiel, Azazias, Naate, Asael, Jeremote, Jozabade, Eliel, Ismaquias, Maate, e Benaia, foram capatazes sob a mão de Conanias e de Simei seu irmão, por mandamento do rei Ezequias e de Azarias, príncipe da casa de Deus.
And Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the ruler of the house of God.
14 E Coré filho de Imná levita, porteiro ao oriente, tinha cargo dos donativos de Deus, e das ofertas do SENHOR que se davam, e de tudo o que se santificava.
And Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the porter at the east gate, was over the freewill-offerings of God, to distribute the offerings of the LORD, and the most holy things.
15 E a sua mão estava Éden, Benjamim, Jesua, Semaías, Amarias, e Secanias, nas cidades dos sacerdotes, para dar com fidelidade a seus irmãos suas partes conforme a suas ordens, assim ao maior como ao menor:
And under him were Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in their office of trust, to give to their brethren by courses, as well to the great as to the small;
16 A mais dos homens anotados por suas linhagens, de três anos acima, a todos os que entravam na casa do SENHOR, sua porção diária por seu ministério, segundo seus ofícios e classes;
beside them that were reckoned by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even every one that entered into the house of the LORD, for his daily portion, for their service in their charges according to their courses;
17 Também aos que eram contados entre os sacerdotes pelas famílias de seus pais, e aos levitas de idade de vinte anos acima, conforme a seus ofícios e ordens;
and them that were reckoned by genealogy of the priests by their fathers' houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their charges by their courses;
18 Assim aos de sua geração com todos seus meninos, e suas mulheres, e seus filhos e filhas, a toda a família; porque com fidelidade se consagravam às coisas santas.
even to give to them that were reckoned by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation; for in their office of trust they administered the sacred gifts;
19 Do mesmo modo em ordem aos filhos de Arão, sacerdotes, que estavam nos campos de suas cidades, por todas as cidades, os homens nomeados tinham cargo de dar suas porções a todos os homens dos sacerdotes, e a toda a linhagem dos levitas.
also for the sons of Aaron the priests, that were in the fields of the open land about their cities, in every city, there were men that were mentioned by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all that were reckoned by genealogy among the Levites.
20 De esta maneira fez Ezequias em todo Judá: e executou o que era bom, correto, e verdadeiro, diante do SENHOR seu Deus.
And thus did Hezekiah throughout all Judah; and he wrought that which was good and right and faithful before the LORD his God.
21 Em tudo quanto começou no serviço da casa de Deus, e na lei e mandamentos, buscou a seu Deus, e o fez de todo coração, e foi próspero.
And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
