< 2 Reis 11 >

1 E Atalia mãe de Acazias, vendo que seu filho era morto, levantou-se, e destruiu toda a semente real.
And Gotholia the mother of Ochozias saw that her son was dead, and she destroyed all the seed royal.
2 Porém Jeoseba, filha do rei Jeorão, irmã de Acazias, tomando a Joás filho de Acazias, tirou-o dentre os filhos do rei, que se matavam, e ocultou-o de diante de Atalia, a ele e a sua ama, na câmara das camas, e assim não o mataram.
And Josabee daughter of king Joram, sister of Ochozias, took Joas the son of her brother, and stole him from among the king's sons that were put to death, [secreting] him and his nurse in the bedchamber, and hid him from the face of Gotholia, and he was not slain.
3 E esteve com ela escondido na casa do SENHOR durante seis anos; e Atalia foi rainha sobre aquela terra.
And he remained with her hid in the house of the Lord six years: and Gotholia reigned over the land.
4 Mas ao sétimo ano enviou Joiada, e tomou comandantes de cem, capitães, e gente da guarda, e meteu-os consigo na casa do SENHOR: e fez com eles liga, juramentando-os na casa do SENHOR; e mostrou-lhes ao filho do rei.
And in the seventh year Jodae sent and took the captains of hundreds of the Chorri and of the Rhasim, and brought them to him into the house of the Lord, and made a covenant of the Lord with them, and adjured them, and Jodae showed them the king's son.
5 E mandou-lhes, dizendo: Isto é o que haveis de fazer: a terceira parte de vós, os que entrarão o sábado, terão a guarda da casa do rei;
And charged them, saying, This [is] the thing which you shall do.
6 E a outra terceira parte estará à porta do Sur, e a outra terceira parte à porta da entrada dos da guarda: assim guardareis a casa, para que não seja invadida.
Let a third part of you go in [on] the sabbath-day, and keep you the watch of the king's house in the porch; and another third in the gate of the high way, and a third at the gate behind the footmen; and keep you the guard of the house.
7 E as duas partes de vós, a saber, todos os que saem o sábado, tereis a guarda da casa do SENHOR junto ao rei.
And there [shall be] two parties among you, even every one that goes out on the Sabbath, and they shall keep the guard of the Lord's house before the king.
8 E estareis ao redor do rei de todas as partes, tendo cada um suas armas nas mãos, e qualquer um que entrar por estas fileiras, seja morto. E haveis de estar com o rei quando sair, e quando entrar.
And do you compass the king about every man with his weapon in his hand, and he that goes into the ranges shall die: and they shall be with the king in his going out and in his coming in.
9 Os comandantes de cem, pois, fizeram tudo como o sacerdote Joiada lhes mandou: e tomando cada um os seus, a saber, os que haviam de entrar o sábado, e os que haviam saído o sábado, vieram a Joiada o sacerdote.
And the captains of hundreds did all things that the wise Jodae commanded; and they took each his men, both those that went in on the sabbath-day, and those that went out on the sabbath-day, and went in to Jodae the priest.
10 E o sacerdote deu aos comandantes de cem as lanças e os escudos que haviam sido do rei Davi, que estavam na casa do SENHOR.
And the priest gave to the captains of hundreds the swords and spears of king David that were in the house of the Lord.
11 E os da guarda se puseram em ordem, tendo cada um suas armas em suas mãos, desde o lado direito da casa até o lado esquerdo, junto ao altar e o templo, em derredor do rei.
And the footmen stood each with his weapon in his hand from the right corner of the house to the left corner of the house, [by] the altar and the house round about the king.
12 Tirando logo Joiada ao filho do rei, pôs-lhe a coroa e o testemunho, e fizeram-lhe rei ungindo-lhe; e batendo as mãos disseram: Viva o rei!
And he brought forth the king's son, and put upon him the crown and [gave him] the testimony; and he made him king, and anointed him: and they clapped [their] hands, and said, Long live the king.
13 E ouvindo Atalia o estrondo do povo que corria, entrou ao povo no templo do SENHOR;
And Gotholia heard the sound of the people running, and she went in to the people to the house of the Lord.
14 E quando olhou, eis que o rei que estava junto à coluna, conforme o costume, e os príncipes e os trombetas junto ao rei; e que todo o povo daquela terra se alegrava, e que tocavam as trombetas. Então Atalia, rasgando suas roupas, clamou em gritos: Traição! Traição!
And she looked, and, behold, the king stood near a pillar according to the manner; and the singers and the trumpeters were before the king and all the people of the land [even] rejoicing and sounding with trumpets: and Gotholia tore her garments, and cried, A conspiracy, a conspiracy.
15 Mas o sacerdote Joiada mandou aos comandantes de cem que governavam o exército, e disse-lhes: Tirai-a fora do recinto do templo, e ao que a seguir, matai-o à espada. (Porque o sacerdote disse que não a matassem no templo do SENHOR.)
And Jodae the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were over the host, and said to them, Bring her forth without the ranges, [and] he that goes in after her shall certainly die by the sword. For the priest said, Let her not however be slain in the house of the Lord.
16 Deram-lhe, pois, lugar, e quando ia o caminho por de onde entram os cavaleiros à casa do rei, ali a mataram.
And they laid hands upon her, and went in by the way of the horses' entrance into the house of the Lord, and she was slain there.
17 Então Joiada fez aliança entre o SENHOR e o rei e o povo, que seriam povo do SENHOR: e também entre o rei e o povo.
And Jodae made a covenant between the Lord and the king and the people, that they should be the Lord's people; also between the king and the people.
18 E todo o povo da terra entrou no templo de Baal, e derrubaram-no: também despedaçaram inteiramente seus altares e suas imagens, e mataram a Matã sacerdote de Baal diante dos altares. E o sacerdote pôs guarnição sobre a casa do SENHOR.
And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and tore it down, and completely broke in pieces his altars and his images, and they killed Mathan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed overseers over the house of the Lord.
19 Depois tomou os centuriões, e capitães, e os da guarda, e a todo o povo da terra, e levaram ao rei desde a casa do SENHOR, e vieram pelo caminho da porta dos da guarda à casa do rei; e sentou-se o rei sobre o trono dos reis.
And he took the captains of the hundreds, and the Chorri, and the Rhasim, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king out of the house of the Lord; and they went in by the way of the gate of the footmen of the king's house, and seated him there on the throne of the kings.
20 E todo o povo da terra fez alegrias, e a cidade esteve em repouso, havendo sido Atalia morta à espada junto à casa do rei.
And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was at rest: and they killed Gotholia with the sword in the house of the king.
21 Era Joás de sete anos quando começou a reinar.
Joas [was] seven years old when he began to reign.
