2 Chronicles 8
1 Now at the end of twenty years, in which time Solomon had put up the house of the Lord and a house for himself,
E sucedeu, ao cabo de vinte anos, nos quais Salomão edificou a casa do Senhor, e a sua própria casa,
2 He took in hand the building up of the towns which Huram had given him, causing the children of Israel to make living-places for themselves there.
Que Salomão edificou as cidades que Hurão lhe tinha dado; e fez habitar nelas os filhos de Israel.
3 And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah and overcame it.
Depois foi Salomão a Hamath Zoba, e a tomou.
4 And he put up the buildings of Tadmor in the waste land, and of all the store-towns in Hamath;
Também edificou a Tadmor no deserto, e todas as cidades das munições, que edificou em Hamath.
5 And of Beth-horon the higher and the lower, walled towns with walls and doorways and locks;
Edificou também a alta Beth-horon, e a baixa Beth-horon; cidades fortes com muros, portas e ferrolhos;
6 And of Baalath, and all the store-towns which Solomon had, and the towns where he kept his war-carriages and his horse men, and everything which it was his pleasure to put up in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and in all the land under his rule.
Como também a Baalath, e todas as cidades das munições, que Salomão tinha, e todas as cidades dos carros e as cidades dos cavaleiros; e tudo quanto, conforme ao seu desejo, Salomão quis edificar em Jerusalém, e no líbano, e em toda a terra do seu domínio.
7 As for all the rest of the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel:
Quanto a todo o povo, que tinha ficado dos heteus, e amorreus, e pherezeus, e heveus, e jebuseus, que não eram de Israel,
8 Their men who were still living in the land, and whom the children of Israel had not put an end to, these Solomon put to forced work, as is done to this day;
Dos seus filhos, que ficaram depois deles na terra, os quais os filhos de Israel não destruiram, Salomão os fez tributários, até ao dia de hoje.
9 But Solomon did not make use of the children of Israel as servants for his work; they were men of war, his chiefs and his captains, and captains of his war-carriages and his horsemen.
Porém dos filhos de Israel, a quem Salomão não fez servos para sua obra (mas eram homens de guerra, chefes dos seus capitães, e chefes dos seus carros, e dos seus cavaleiros),
10 Now these were the chief men in authority whom King Solomon had: two hundred and fifty of them, in authority over the people.
Destes pois eram os chefes dos oficiais que o rei Salomão tinha, duzentos e cincoênta, que presidiam sobre o povo.
11 Then Solomon made Pharaoh's daughter come up from the town of David to the house which he had made for her; for he said, I will not have my wife living in the house of David, king of Israel, because those places where the ark of the Lord has come are holy.
E Salomão fez subir a filha de faraó da cidade de David para a casa que lhe tinha edificado; porque disse: Minha mulher não morará na casa de David, rei de Israel, porquanto santos são os lugares nos quais entrou a arca do Senhor.
12 Then Solomon made burned offerings to the Lord on the altar of the Lord which he had put up in front of the covered way,
Então Salomão ofereceu holocaustos ao Senhor, sobre o altar do Senhor, que tinha edificado diante do pórtico:
13 Offering every day what had been ordered by Moses, on the Sabbaths and at the new moon and at the regular feasts three times a year, that is at the feast of unleavened bread, the feast of weeks, and the feast of tents.
E isto segundo a ordem de cada dia, oferecendo o mandamento de Moisés, nos sábados e nas luas novas, e nas solenidades, três vezes no ano: na festa dos pães asmos, e na festa das semanas, e na festa das tendas.
14 And he gave the divisions of the priests their places for their work, as ordered by his father David, and to the Levites he gave their work of praise and waiting on the priests, to do what was needed day by day; and he gave the door-keepers their places in turn at every door; for so David, the man of God, had given orders.
Também, conforme à ordem de David seu pai, ordenou as turmas dos sacerdotes nos seus ministérios, como também as dos levitas acerca de suas guardas, para louvarem a Deus, e ministrarem diante dos sacerdotes, segundo a ordenação de cada dia, e os porteiros pelas suas turmas a cada porta: porque tal era o mandado de David, o homem de Deus.
15 All the orders given by the king to the priests and Levites, in connection with any business or stores, were done with care.
E não se desviaram do mandado do rei aos sacerdotes e levitas, em negócio nenhum, nem acerca dos tesouros.
16 And all the work of Solomon was complete, from the day when he put the base of the Lord's house in position, till Solomon had come to the end of building the Lord's house.
Assim se preparou toda a obra de Salomão, desde o dia da fundação da casa do Senhor, até se acabar: e assim se aperfeiçoou a casa do Senhor.
17 Then Solomon went to Ezion-geber and to Eloth by the sea in the land of Edom.
Então foi Salomão a Esion-geber, e a Eloth, à praia do mar, na terra de Edom.
18 And Huram sent him, by his servants, ships and experienced seamen, who went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir and came back with four hundred and fifty talents of gold, which they took to King Solomon.
E enviou-lhe Hurão, por mão de seus servos, navios, e servos práticos do mar, e foram com os servos de Salomão a Ophir, e tomaram de lá quatrocentos e cincoênta talentos de ouro: e os trouxeram ao rei Salomão.
