2 Chronicles 16
1 In the six-and-thirtieth year of the reign of Assa, came up Ba'sha the king of Israel against Judah, and built Kamah, in order not to suffer any one to go out or come in to Assa the king of Judah.
No ano trigésimo sexto do reinado d'Asa, Baása, rei de Israel, subiu contra Judá e edificou a Rama, para ninguém deixar sair nem entrar a Asa, rei de Judá.
2 Then did Assa bring out silver and gold out of the treasuries of the house of the Lord and of the king's house, and sent [them] to Ben-hadad the king of Syria, who dwelt at Damascus, saying,
Então tirou a Asa a prata e o ouro dos tesouros da casa de Deus, e da casa do rei; e enviou a Benhadad, rei da Síria, que habitava em Damasco, dizendo:
3 A covenant is between me and thee, as between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent unto thee silver and gold; go, break thy covenant with Ba'sha the king of Israel, that he may withdraw from me.
Aliança há entre mim e ti, como houve entre meu pai e teu: eis que te envio prata e ouro; vai, pois, e aniquila a tua aliança com Baása, rei de Israel, para que se retire de sobre mim.
4 And Ben-hadad hearkened unto king Assa, and sent the captains of the armies that he had against the cities of Israel, and they smote 'Iyon, and Dan, and Abel-mayim, and all the treasure-cities of Naphtali.
E Benhadad deu ouvidos ao rei Asa, e enviou o capitão dos exércitos que tinha, contra as cidades de Israel, e feriram a Ijon, e a Dan, e a Abelmaim; e a todas as cidades das munições de Naphtali.
5 And it came to pass, when Ba'sha heard this, that he left off the building of Ramah, and stopped his work.
E sucedeu que, ouvindo-o Baása, deixou de edificar a Rama; e descontinuou a sua obra.
6 And king Assa took then all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and its timber, wherewith Ba'sha had built; and he built therewith Geba' and Mizpah.
Então o rei Asa tomou a todo o Judá e levaram as pedras de Rama, e a sua madeira, com que Baása edificara; e edificou com isto a Geba e a Mispah.
7 And at that time came Chanani the seer to Assa the king of Judah, and said unto him, Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria, and hast not relied on the Lord thy God: therefore is the army of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hands.
Naquele mesmo tempo veio Hanani, o vidente, a Asa rei de Judá, e disse-lhe: Porquanto confiaste no rei da Síria, e não confiaste no Senhor teu Deus, portanto o exército do rei da Síria escapou da tua mão.
8 Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubim a numerous army, with chariots and horsemen in great abundance? yet, because thou didst rely on the Lord, he gave them up into thy hand.
Porventura não foram os ethiopes e os lybios um grande exército, com muitíssimos carros e cavaleiros? confiando tu porém no Senhor, ele os entregou nas tuas mãos.
9 For as regardeth the Lord, his eyes roam throughout the whole earth, to hold strongly with those whose heart is entire toward him: thou hast done foolishly for this reason; because from this time forth there will be wars with thee.
Porque, quanto ao Senhor, seus olhos passam por toda a terra, para mostrar-se forte para com aqueles cujo coração é perfeito para com ele; nisto pois fizeste loucamente porque desde agora haverá guerras contra ti.
10 Then became Assa incensed toward the seer, and put him in a prison-house; for he was in a rage with him because of this. And Assa oppressed some of the people at the same time.
Porém Asa se indignou contra o vidente, e lançou-o na casa do tronco; porque disto grandemente se alterou contra ele: também Asa no mesmo tempo oprimiu a alguns do povo.
11 And, behold, the acts of Assa, the first and the last, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
E eis que os sucessos d'Asa, tanto os primeiros, como os últimos, estão escritos no livro dos reis de Judá e Israel.
12 And Assa became sick in the thirty-and-ninth year of his reign in his feet, his disease being exceedingly severe: yet even in his disease he sought not to the Lord, but [applied] to the physicians.
E caiu Asa doente de seus pés no ano trinta e nove do seu reinado: grande por extremo era a sua enfermidade, e contudo na sua enfermidade não buscou ao Senhor, mas antes aos médicos.
13 And Assa slept with his fathers, and died in the one-and-fortieth year of his reign.
E Asa dormiu com seus pais; e morreu no ano quarenta e um do seu reinado.
14 And they buried him in his own sepulchres, which he had dug for himself in the city of David, and they laid him in the couch which was filled with sweet odors and divers kinds of spices mixed by the apothecary's art; and they made for him a burning uncommonly great.
E o sepultaram no seu sepulcro, que tinha cavado para si na cidade de David, havendo-o deitado na cama, que se enchera de cheiros e especiarias preparadas segundo a arte dos perfumistas: e fizeram-lhe queima mui grande.
