2 Chronicles 33

1 Twelve years old was Manasseh when he became king, and fifty and five years did he reign in Jerusalem.

Tinha Manasses doze anos de idade, quando começou a reinar, e cincoênta e cinco anos reinou em Jerusalém.

2 And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, after the abominable acts of the nations whom the Lord had driven out from before the children of Israel.

E fez o que era mal aos olhos do Senhor, conforme às abominações dos gentios que o Senhor lançara fora de diante dos filhos de Israel.

3 And he built again the high-places which Hezekiah his father had broken down, and he erected altars for the Be'alim, and made Asheroth, and bowed himself down to all the host of heaven, and served them.

Porque tornou a edificar os altos que Ezequias, seu pai, tinha derribado; e levantou altares a Baalim, e fez bosques, e prostrou-se diante de todo o exército dos céus, e o serviu.

4 And he built altars in the house of the Lord, whereof the Lord had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever.

E edificou altares na casa do Senhor, da qual o Senhor tinha dito: Em Jerusalém estará o meu nome eternamente.

5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.

Edificou altares a todo o exército dos céus, em ambos os pátios da casa do Senhor.

6 And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of Ben-hinnom: he also observed times, and employed enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with [those of] a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he did much that is evil in the eyes of the Lord, to provoke him to anger.

Fez ele também passar seus filhos pelo fogo no vale do filho de Hinnom, e usou de adivinhações e de agoiros, e de feitiçarias, e ordenou adivinhos e encantadores: e fez muitíssimo mal aos olhos do Senhor, para o provocar à ira

7 And he placed a carved image of the idol which he had made in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have made choice of out of all the tribes of Israel, will I place my name for ever.

Também pôs uma imagem esculpida, o ídolo que tinha feito, na casa de Deus, da qual Deus tinha dito a David e a Salomão seu filho: nesta casa, em Jerusalém, que escolhi de todas as tribos de Israel, porei eu o meu nome para sempre;

8 Nor will I any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers; but only if they will take heed to do all that I have commanded them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moses.

E nunca mais removerei o pé de Israel da terra que ordenei a vossos pais; contanto que tenham cuidado de fazer tudo o que eu lhes ordenei, conforme a toda a lei, e estatutos, e juízos, dados pela mão de Moisés.

9 But Menasseh led Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem astray, to do worse than the nations whom the Lord had destroyed from before the children of Israel.

E Manasses tanto fez errar a Judá e aos moradores de Jerusalém, que fizeram pior do que as nações que o Senhor tinha destruído de diante dos filhos de Israel.

10 And the Lord spoke to Menasseh, and to his people; but they listened not.

E falou o Senhor a Manasses e ao seu povo, porém não deram ouvidos.

11 Wherefore the Lord brought over them the captains of the army belonging to the king of Assyria: and they took Menasseh prisoner with chains, and bound him with fetters, and led him off to Babylon.

Pelo que o Senhor trouxe sobre eles os príncipes do exército do rei d'Assyria, os quais prenderam a Manasses entre os espinhais; e o amarraram com cadeias, e o levaram a Babilônia.

12 And when he was in distress, he besought the Lord his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.

E ele, angustiado, orou deveras ao Senhor seu Deus, e humilhou-se muito perante o Deus de seus pais;

13 And he prayed unto him, and he permitted himself to be entreated by him, and heard his supplication, and brought him back to Jerusalem, unto his kingdom. Then did Menasseh feel conscious that the Lord is indeed the [true] God.

E lhe fez oração, e Deus se aplacou para com ele, e ouviu a sua súplica, e o tornou a trazer a Jerusalém, ao seu reino: então conheceu Manasses que o Senhor era Deus.

14 And after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gichon, in the valley, even to the entrance of the fish-gate, and about the hill-fort, and raised it up to a very great height; and he placed captains of the army in all the fortified cities of Judah.

E depois disto edificou o muro de fora da cidade de David, ao ocidente de Gihon, no vale, e à entrada da porta do peixe, e à roda, até Ophel, e o levantou mui alto: também pôs oficiais valentes em todas as cidades fortes de Judá.

15 And he removed the strange gods and the idol out of the house of the Lord, and all the altars that he had built on the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Jerusalem, and he cast them forth to without the city.

E tirou da casa do Senhor os deuses estranhos e o ídolo, como também todos os altares que tinha edificado no monte da casa do Senhor, e em Jerusalém, e os lançou fora da cidade.

16 And he rebuilt the altar of the Lord, and sacrificed thereupon peace-offerings and thanksgiving-offerings, and he ordered Judah to serve the Lord the God of Israel.

E reparou o altar do Senhor, e ofereceu sobre ele ofertas pacíficas e de louvor: e mandou a Judá que servissem ao Senhor Deus de Israel.

17 Nevertheless the people sacrificed on the high-places, but only unto the Lord their God.

Mas ainda o povo sacrificava nos altos, mas somente ao Senhor seu Deus.

18 And the rest of the acts of Menasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the Lord the God of Israel, behold, they are in the history of the kings of Israel.

O resto pois dos sucessos de Manasses, e a sua oração ao seu Deus, e as palavras dos videntes que lhe falaram no nome do Senhor, Deus de Israel, eis que estão nos sucessos dos reis de Israel.

19 His prayer also, and [how God] was entreated of him, and all his sins and his faithlessness, and the places whereon he built high-places, and set up the Asherim and the graven images, before he was humbled: behold, they are written in the history of Chozai.

E a sua oração, e como Deus se aplacou para com ele, e todo o seu pecado, e a sua transgressão, e os lugares onde edificou altos, e pôs bosques e imagens de escultura, antes que se humilhasse, eis que está escrito nos livros dos videntes.

20 And Menasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And Amon his son became king in his stead.

E dormiu Manasses com seus pais, e o sepultaram em sua casa; Amon, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.

21 Two and twenty years old was Amon when he became king, and two years did he reign in Jerusalem.

Era Amon de idade de vinte e dois anos, quando começou a reinar, e dois anos reinou em Jerusalém.

22 And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Menasseh his father had done; and unto all the carved images which Menasseh his father had made did Amon sacrifice, and them he served;

E fez o que era mal aos olhos do Senhor, como havia feito Manasses, seu pai; porque Amon sacrificou a todas as imagens de escultura que Manasses, seu pai, tinha feito, e as serviu.

23 But he did not humble himself before the Lord, as Menasseh his father had humbled himself; for he, Amon, made his guiltiness great.

Mas não se humilhou perante o Senhor, como Manasses, seu pai, se humilhara: antes multiplicou Amon os seus delitos.

24 And his servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own house.

E conspiraram contra ele os seus servos, e o mataram em sua casa.

25 But the people of the land slew all those that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.

Porém o povo da terra feriu a todos quantos conspiraram contra o rei Amon: e o povo da terra fez reinar em seu lugar a Josias, seu filho.
