2 Reis 16

1 No décimo sétimo ano de Pekah, filho de Remaliah, Ahaz, filho de Jotham, rei de Judá, começou a reinar.

In the seventeenth year of Pekah, the son of Remaliah, Ahaz, the son of Jotham, became king of Judah.

2 Acaz tinha vinte anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezesseis anos em Jerusalém. Ele não fez o que era certo aos olhos de Javé, seu Deus, como Davi, seu pai.

Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king; he was ruling for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord his God, as David his father did.

3 Mas ele andou no caminho dos reis de Israel, e até fez seu filho passar pelo fogo, de acordo com as abominações das nações que Javé expulsou de diante dos filhos de Israel.

But he went in the ways of the kings of Israel, and even made his son go through the fire, copying the disgusting ways of the nations whom the Lord had sent out of the land before the children of Israel.

4 Ele sacrificou e queimou incenso nos lugares altos, nas colinas, e debaixo de cada árvore verde.

And he made offerings, burning them in the high places and on the hills and under every green tree.

5 Então Rezin, rei da Síria, e Pekah, filho de Remaliah, rei de Israel, vieram a Jerusalém para travar uma guerra. Eles sitiaram Acaz, mas não conseguiram vencê-lo.

Then Rezin, king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war; and they made an attack on Ahaz, shutting him in, but were not able to overcome him.

6 Naquele tempo, Rezin, rei da Síria, recuperou Elath para a Síria e expulsou os judeus de Elath; e os sírios vieram para Elath, e viveram lá até hoje.

At that time the king of Edom got Elath back for Edom, and sent the Jews out of Elath; and the Edomites came back to Elath where they are living to this day.

7 Então Ahaz enviou mensageiros a Tiglath Pileser, rei da Assíria, dizendo: “Eu sou seu servo e seu filho”. Suba e me salve da mão do rei da Síria e da mão do rei de Israel, que se levantam contra mim”.

So Ahaz sent representatives to Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, saying, I am your servant and your son; come to my help against the kings of Aram and Israel who have taken up arms against me.

8 Ahaz pegou a prata e o ouro encontrados na casa de Iavé e nos tesouros da casa do rei e os enviou de presente ao rei da Assíria.

And Ahaz took the silver and gold which were in the house of the Lord and in the king's store-house, and sent them as an offering to the king of Assyria.

9 O rei da Assíria o ouviu; e o rei da Assíria subiu contra Damasco e a tomou, e levou seu povo cativo a Kir, e matou Rezin.

And the king of Assyria, in answer to his request, went up against Damascus and took it, and took its people away as prisoners to Kir, and put Rezin to death.

10 O rei Ahaz foi a Damasco para encontrar Tiglath Pileser, rei da Assíria, e viu o altar que estava em Damasco; e o rei Ahaz enviou a Urijah o sacerdote um desenho do altar e planeja construí-lo.

Then King Ahaz went to Damascus for a meeting with Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria; and there he saw the altar which was at Damascus; and King Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest a copy of the altar, giving the design of it and all the details of its structure.

11 Urijah o sacerdote construiu um altar. De acordo com tudo o que o rei Ahaz havia enviado de Damasco, então Urijah o sacerdote o fez para a vinda do rei Ahaz de Damasco.

And from the copy King Ahaz sent from Damascus, Urijah made an altar and had it ready by the time King Ahaz came back from Damascus.

12 Quando o rei tinha vindo de Damasco, o rei viu o altar; e o rei se aproximou do altar e ofereceu sobre ele.

And when the king came from Damascus, he saw the altar; and he went up on it and made an offering on it.

13 Ele queimou seu holocausto e sua oferta de refeição, derramou sua oferta de bebida e aspergiu o sangue de suas ofertas pacíficas sobre o altar.

He made his burned offering and his meal offering and his drink offering there, draining out the blood of his peace-offerings on the altar.

14 O altar de bronze, que estava antes de Javé, ele trouxe da frente da casa, de entre seu altar e a casa de Javé, e o colocou no lado norte de seu altar.

And the brass altar, which was before the Lord, he took from the front of the house, from between his altar and the house of the Lord, and put it on the north side of his altar.

15 O rei Ahaz ordenou ao sacerdote Urijah, dizendo: “No grande altar queimar o holocausto da manhã, a oferta de refeição da noite, o holocausto do rei e sua oferta de refeição, com o holocausto de todo o povo da terra, sua oferta de refeição, e suas ofertas de bebida; e aspergir nele todo o sangue do holocausto, e todo o sangue do sacrifício; mas o altar de bronze será para eu perguntar por ele”.

And King Ahaz gave orders to Urijah the priest, saying, Make the morning burned offering and the evening meal offering and the king's burned offering and meal offering, with the burned offerings of all the people and their meal offerings and drink offerings, on the great altar, and put on it all the blood of the burned offerings and of the beasts which are offered; but the brass altar will be for my use to get directions from the Lord.

16 Urijah o padre o fez, de acordo com tudo o que o rei Ahaz ordenou.

So Urijah the priest did everything as the king said

17 O rei Ahaz cortou os painéis das bases, retirou a bacia, tirou o mar dos bois de bronze que estavam debaixo dela e o colocou sobre um pavimento de pedra.

And King Ahaz took off the sides of the wheeled bases, and took down the great water-vessel from off the brass oxen which were under it and put it on a floor of stone.

18 Ele removeu o caminho coberto para o sábado que eles tinham construído na casa, e a entrada externa do rei na casa de Yahweh, por causa do rei da Assíria.

the house of the Lord, because of the king of Assyria.

19 Agora o resto dos atos de Acaz que ele fez, não estão escritos no livro das crônicas dos reis de Judá?

Now the rest of the things which Ahaz did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?

20 Acaz dormiu com seus pais e foi enterrado com seus pais na cidade de Davi; e Ezequias, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.

And Ahaz went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Hezekiah his son became king in his place.
