2 Crônicas 12

1 Quando o reino de Roboão foi estabelecido e ele era forte, ele abandonou a lei de Iavé, e todo Israel com ele.

And it came to pass, when the kingdom of Rehoboam was established, and he was strong, that he forsook the law of Jehovah, and all Israel with him.

2 No quinto ano do rei Roboão, Shishak, rei do Egito, enfrentou Jerusalém, porque eles tinham transgredido contra Javé,

And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had trespassed against Jehovah,

3 com mil e duzentos carros e sessenta mil cavaleiros. O povo era um povo sem número de pessoas que vieram com ele do Egito: os Lubim, os Sukkiim e os etíopes.

with twelve hundred chariots, and thirty thousand horsemen. And the people were without number who came with him out of Egypt: the Lubim, the Sukkiim, and the Ethiopians.

4 Ele tomou as cidades fortificadas que pertenciam a Judá, e veio a Jerusalém.

And he took the fortified cities which pertained to Judah, and came to Jerusalem.

5 Agora o profeta Semaías veio a Roboão e aos príncipes de Judá, que estavam reunidos em Jerusalém por causa de Sisaque, e disse-lhes: “Javé diz: 'Vocês me abandonaram, portanto eu também vos deixei na mão de Sisaque'”.

Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam, and to the rulers of Judah, who were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, Thus says Jehovah, Ye have forsaken me, therefore I have also left you in the hand of Shishak.

6 Então os príncipes de Israel e o rei se humilharam; e eles disseram: “Yahweh é justo”.

Then the rulers of Israel and the king humbled themselves, and they said, Jehovah is righteous.

7 Quando Javé viu que eles se humilharam, a palavra de Javé veio a Semaías, dizendo: “Eles se humilharam”. Não os destruirei, mas lhes concederei alguma libertação, e minha ira não será derramada sobre Jerusalém pela mão de Shishak.

And when Jehovah saw that they humbled themselves, the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves. I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance, and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.

8 No entanto, eles serão seus servos, para que conheçam meu serviço, e o serviço dos reinos dos países”.

Nevertheless they shall be his servants, that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.

9 Então Shishak, rei do Egito, enfrentou Jerusalém e levou os tesouros da casa de Iavé e os tesouros da casa do rei. Ele tirou tudo isso. Ele também tirou os escudos de ouro que Salomão havia feito.

So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the king's house; he took all away. He also took away the shields of gold which Solomon had made.

10 O rei Roboão fez escudos de bronze em seu lugar, e os entregou às mãos dos capitães da guarda, que guardavam a porta da casa do rei.

And king Rehoboam made in their stead shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard that kept the door of the king's house.

11 Tantas vezes quanto o rei entrava na casa de Yahweh, o guarda vinha e os carregava, depois os trazia de volta para a sala da guarda.

And it was so, that, as often as the king entered into the house of Jehovah, the guard came and bore them, and brought them back into the guard-chamber.

12 Quando ele se humilhou, a ira de Iavé se desviou dele, para não destruí-lo completamente. Além disso, havia coisas boas encontradas em Judá.

And when he humbled himself, the wrath of Jehovah turned from him, so as not to destroy him altogether. And moreover in Judah there were good things.

13 Então o rei Roboão se fortaleceu em Jerusalém e reinou; pois Roboão tinha quarenta e um anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezessete anos em Jerusalém, a cidade que Javé havia escolhido de todas as tribos de Israel para colocar seu nome lá. O nome de sua mãe era Naamah, a amonita.

So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned. For Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which Jehovah had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel to put his name there. And his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.

14 Ele fez o que era maligno, porque não se dispôs a buscar a Iavé.

And he did that which was evil, because he did not set his heart to seek Jehovah.

15 Agora os atos de Roboão, primeiro e último, não estão escritos nas histórias de Semaías, o profeta, e de Ido, o vidente, nas genealogias? Havia guerras entre Roboão e Jeroboão continuamente.

Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, after the manner of genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.

16 Rehoboam dormiu com seus pais, e foi enterrado na cidade de David; e Abias, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.

And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David. And Abijah his son reigned in his stead.
