< 2 Crônicas 23 >
1 No sétimo ano, Jehoiada se fortaleceu e levou os capitães de centenas-Azarias, filho de Jeroham, Ismael, filho de Jehohanan, Azarias, filho de Obede, Maaséias, filho de Adaías, e Elishaphat, filho de Zichri, para um pacto com ele.
And in the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the captains of hundreds, Azariah the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, and Azariah the son of Obed, and Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri into covenant with him.
2 Eles andaram por Judá e reuniram os levitas de todas as cidades de Judá, e os chefes de família dos pais de Israel, e vieram a Jerusalém.
And they went about in Judah, and gathered the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the chief of the fathers of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.
3 Toda a assembléia fez um convênio com o rei na casa de Deus. Jeoiada lhes disse: “Eis que o filho do rei deve reinar, como Javé falou a respeito dos filhos de Davi”.
And all the congregation made a covenant with the king in the house of Elohim. And he said unto them, Behold, the king's son shall reign, as YHWH hath said of the sons of David.
4 Isto é o que vocês devem fazer: uma terceira parte de vocês, que entram no sábado, dos sacerdotes e dos levitas, serão porteiros dos umbrais.
This is the thing that ye shall do; A third part of you entering on the Sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be porters of the doors;
5 Uma terceira parte estará na casa do rei; e uma terceira parte no portão da fundação. Todo o povo estará nas cortes da casa de Yahweh.
And a third part shall be at the king's house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation: and all the people shall be in the courts of the house of YHWH.
6 Mas que ninguém entre na casa de Iavé, exceto os sacerdotes e os que ministram os levitas. Eles entrarão, pois são santos, mas todo o povo seguirá as instruções de Yahweh.
But let none come into the house of YHWH, save the priests, and they that minister of the Levites; they shall go in, for they are holy: but all the people shall keep the watch of YHWH.
7 Os levitas rodearão o rei, cada homem com suas armas na mão. Quem quer que entre na casa, deixe-o ser morto. Esteja com o rei quando ele entrar e quando ele sair”.
And the Levites shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and whosoever else cometh into the house, he shall be put to death: but be ye with the king when he cometh in, and when he goeth out.
8 Então os Levitas e todo Judá fizeram de acordo com tudo o que Jehoiada, o sacerdote, ordenou. Cada um levou seus homens, aqueles que deveriam entrar no sábado, com aqueles que deveriam sair no sábado, pois Jehoiada o padre não dispensou o turno.
So the Levites and all Judah did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest had commanded, and took every man his men that were to come in on the Sabbath, with them that were to go out on the Sabbath: for Jehoiada the priest dismissed not the courses.
9 Jehoiada o sacerdote entregou aos capitães de centenas de lanças, baldes e escudos que tinham sido do rei Davi, que estavam na casa de Deus.
Moreover Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David's, which were in the house of Elohim.
10 Ele colocou todo o povo, cada homem com sua arma na mão, do lado direito da casa para o lado esquerdo da casa, perto do altar e da casa, ao redor do rei.
And he set all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side of the temple, along by the altar and the temple, by the king round about.
11 Depois trouxeram o filho do rei, colocaram a coroa sobre ele, deram-lhe o pacto e o fizeram rei. Jehoiada e seus filhos o ungiram, e disseram: “Viva o rei”!
Then they brought out the king's son, and put upon him the crown, and gave him the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, Elohim save the king.
12 Quando Athaliah ouviu o barulho do povo correndo e elogiando o rei, ela veio até o povo na casa de Yahweh.
Now when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people into the house of YHWH:
13 Então ela olhou, e eis que o rei estava ao lado de seu pilar na entrada, com os capitães e os trombeteiros do rei. Todo o povo da terra se regozijou e tocou trombetas. Os cantores também tocaram instrumentos musicais, e lideraram o canto de louvor. Então Athaliah rasgou suas roupas, e disse: “Traição! traição”.
And she looked, and, behold, the king stood at his pillar at the entering in, and the princes and the trumpets by the king: and all the people of the land rejoiced, and sounded with trumpets, also the singers with instruments of music, and such as taught to sing praise. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and said, Treason, Treason.
14 Jehoiada o padre trouxe os capitães de centenas que estavam sobre o exército, e disse-lhes: “Tragam-na para fora entre as fileiras; e quem a seguir, que seja morto com a espada”. Pois o padre disse: “Não a matem na casa de Yahweh”.
Then Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds that were set over the host, and said unto them, Have her forth of the ranges: and whoso followeth her, let him be slain with the sword. For the priest said, Slay her not in the house of YHWH.
15 Então eles abriram caminho para ela. Ela foi para a entrada do portão dos cavalos da casa do rei; e eles a mataram lá.
So they laid hands on her; and when she was come to the entering of the horse gate by the king's house, they slew her there.
16 Jehoiada fez um pacto entre ele mesmo, todo o povo e o rei, de que deveriam ser o povo de Yahweh.
And Jehoiada made a covenant between him, and between all the people, and between the king, that they should be YHWH 's people.
17 Todo o povo foi à casa de Baal, quebrou-a, quebrou seus altares e suas imagens em pedaços, e matou Mattan, o sacerdote de Baal, antes dos altares.
Then all the people went to the house of Baal, and brake it down, and brake his altars and his images in pieces, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18 Jehoiada nomeou os oficiais da casa de Iavé sob a mão dos sacerdotes levíticos, que David distribuiu na casa de Iavé, para oferecer os holocaustos de Iavé, como está escrito na lei de Moisés, com alegria e com cânticos, como David havia ordenado.
Also Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of YHWH by the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of YHWH, to offer the burnt offerings of YHWH, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, as it was ordained by David.
19 Ele colocou os porteiros às portas da casa de Iavé, para que ninguém que estivesse impuro em nada entrasse.
And he set the porters at the gates of the house of YHWH, that none which was unclean in any thing should enter in.
20 Ele tomou os capitães de centenas, os nobres, os governadores do povo e todo o povo da terra, e trouxe o rei da casa de Iavé. Eles vieram pelo portão superior da casa do rei, e colocaram o rei no trono do reino.
And he took the captains of hundreds, and the nobles, and the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king from the house of YHWH: and they came through the high gate into the king's house, and set the king upon the throne of the kingdom.
21 Assim, todo o povo da terra se alegrou e a cidade ficou quieta. Eles tinham matado Athaliah com a espada.
And all the people of the land rejoiced: and the city was quiet, after that they had slain Athaliah with the sword.
