< 2 Crônicas 26 >
1 Todo o povo de Judá tomou Uzziah, que tinha dezesseis anos de idade, e o fez rei no lugar de seu pai Amaziah.
And all the people of Judah took 'Uzziyahu, who was then sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amazyahu.
2 Ele construiu Eloth e o restituiu a Judá. Depois disso, o rei dormiu com seus pais.
He it was that built Eloth, and brought it back to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.
3 Uzias tinha dezesseis anos de idade quando começou a reinar; e reinou cinqüenta e dois anos em Jerusalém. O nome de sua mãe era Jechiliah, de Jerusalém.
Sixteen years old was 'Uzziyahu when he became king, and fifty and two years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yecholyah of Jerusalem.
4 Ele fez o que era certo aos olhos de Iavé, de acordo com tudo o que seu pai Amazonas havia feito.
And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that his father Amazyahu had done.
5 Ele se propôs a buscar a Deus nos dias de Zacarias, que tinha compreensão na visão de Deus; e enquanto ele buscava Yahweh, Deus o fez prosperar.
And he was [inclined] to seek God in the days of Zecharyahu, who had understanding in the visions of God; and during the time that he sought the Lord, God caused him to prosper.
6 Ele saiu e lutou contra os filisteus, derrubou o muro de Gate, o muro de Jabneh e o muro de Ashdod; e construiu cidades no país de Ashdod, e entre os filisteus.
And he went forth and made war against the Philistines, and he broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in [the country of] Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
7 Deus o ajudou contra os filisteus, e contra os árabes que viviam em Gur Baal, e contra os Meunim.
And God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gur-ba'al, and the Me'unim.
8 Os amonitas prestaram homenagem a Uzziah. Seu nome se espalhou pelo exterior até a entrada do Egito, pois ele cresceu excessivamente forte.
And the 'Ammonites gave presents to 'Uzziyahu: and his name extended even to the entrance of Egypt; for he became exceedingly strong.
9 Moreover Uzziah construiu torres em Jerusalém no portão da esquina, no portão do vale, e no virar do muro, e as fortificou.
And 'Uzziyahu built towers in Jerusalem, above the corner-gate, and above the valley-gate, and at the angle, and made them strong.
10 Ele construiu torres no deserto e escavou muitas cisternas, pois tinha muito gado, tanto nas terras baixas como nas planícies. Ele tinha agricultores e viticultores nas montanhas e nos campos férteis, pois adorava a agricultura.
He built also towers in the desert, and hewed out many wells; for he had much cattle, both in the lowlands and in the plain; [also] husbandmen, and vintners in the mountains, and in Carmel; for he loved husbandry.
11 Além disso, Uzziah tinha um exército de combatentes que saíam para a guerra por bandas, de acordo com o número de seus cálculos feitos por Jeiel, o escriba, e Maaseiah, o oficial, sob a mão de Hananiah, um dos capitães do rei.
Moreover 'Uzziyah had an army of fighting men, that went out to the host by bands, according to the number of those mustered of them through the hand of Je'iel the scribe and Ma'asseyahu the overseer, under the supervision of Chananyahu, one of the king's captains.
12 O número total dos chefes de família dos pais, mesmo os poderosos homens de valor, era de dois mil e seiscentos.
The whole number of the chiefs of the family divisions of the mighty men of valor was two thousand and six hundred.
13 Sob a mão deles estava um exército, trezentos e sete mil e quinhentos, que fez guerra com poder poderoso, para ajudar o rei contra o inimigo.
And under their supervision was an efficient army, [of] three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
14 Uzziah preparou para eles, mesmo para todo o exército, escudos, lanças, capacetes, capacete, brasões de correio, arcos e pedras para funda.
And 'Uzziyahu prepared for them, for all the host, shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, and stones for slinging.
15 Em Jerusalém, ele fez dispositivos, inventados por homens hábeis, para estar sobre as torres e sobre as ameias, com os quais atirar flechas e grandes pedras. Seu nome se espalhou para muito longe, porque foi maravilhosamente ajudado até se tornar forte.
And he made in Jerusalem artificial contrivances, contrived by a skilful man, to be [stationed] on the towers and upon the ramparts, to shoot off arrows and great stones. And his name extended ever so far abroad; for he was marvelously assisted, till he became strong.
16 Mas quando ele era forte, seu coração foi levantado, de modo que ele se corrompeu e transgrediu contra Javé seu Deus, pois ele entrou no templo de Javé para queimar incenso no altar do incenso.
But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction; and he became unfaithful against the Lord his God, and went into the temple of the Lord to burn incense upon the altar of incense.
17 Azarias o sacerdote foi atrás dele, e com ele oitenta sacerdotes de Iavé, que eram homens valentes.
And there went in after him 'Azaryahu the priest, and with him were priests of the Lord, valiant men, [to the number of] eighty;
18 Eles resistiram a Uzias, o rei, e lhe disseram: “Não é para você, Uzias, queimar incenso para Iavé, mas para os sacerdotes os filhos de Aarão, que são consagrados para queimar incenso”. Saiam do santuário, pois vocês transgrediram. Não será por sua honra de Deus Iavé”.
And they stood forward against king 'Uzziyahu, and they said unto him, It is not for thee, O 'Uzziyahu, to burn incense unto the Lord, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; and it will not be for thy honor from the Lord God.
19 Então Uzziah ficou furioso. Ele tinha um incensário na mão para queimar incenso, e enquanto estava zangado com os sacerdotes, a lepra irrompeu em sua testa diante dos sacerdotes na casa de Yahweh, ao lado do altar do incenso.
But 'Uzziyahu became wroth, and in his hand was a censer to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even broke out on his forehead before the priests in the house of the Lord, above the altar of the incense.
20 Azarias, o sumo sacerdote e todos os sacerdotes olharam para ele, e eis que ele estava leproso em sua testa; e o expulsaram rapidamente dali. De fato, ele mesmo também se apressou a sair, porque Yahweh o havia golpeado.
And when 'Azaryahu the chief priest, with all the priests, turned about toward him, behold, he was leprous on his forehead, and they hurried him away from there: yea, he also made haste to go out, because the Lord had afflicted him.
21 Uzziah o rei era leproso até o dia de sua morte, e vivia em uma casa separada, sendo leproso; pois foi afastado da casa de Iavé. Jotham, seu filho, estava sobre a casa do rei, julgando o povo da terra.
And king 'Uzziyahu was a leper until the day of his death, and dwelt in the leper-house, as a leper; for he was excluded from the house of the Lord: and Jotham his son was over the king's house, [and] judged the people of the land.
22 Now o resto dos atos de Uzziah, primeiro e último, escreveu o profeta Isaías, o filho de Amoz.
And the rest of the acts of 'Uzziyahu, the first and the last, did Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amos write.
23 Então Uzziah dormiu com seus pais; e eles o enterraram com seus pais no campo de sepultamento que pertencia aos reis, pois eles disseram: “Ele é um leproso”. Jotham, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.
And 'Uzziyahu slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the burial-field which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his stead.
