2 Kings 11

1 And when 'Athalyah the mother of Achazyahu saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.

Vendo pois Athalia, mãe de Achazias, que seu filho era morto, levantou-se, e destruiu toda a semente real.

2 But Yehosheba', the daughter of king Joram, the sister of Achazyahu, took Joash the son of Achazyahu, and stole him away from among the king's sons that were slain, him and his nurse into the bed-chamber: and they hid him from 'Athalyah, so that he was not slain.

Mas Josebath, filha do rei Jorão, irmã de Achazias, tomou a Joás, filho de Achazias, e o furtou dentre os filhos do rei, aos quais matavam, e o pos, a ele e à sua ama na recâmara, e o escondeu d'Athalia, e assim não o mataram.

3 And he was with her in the house of the Lord hidden for six years, while 'Athalyah was reigning over the land.

E esteve com ela escondido na casa do Senhor seis anos: e Athalia reinava sobre a terra.

4 And in the seventh year Yehoyada' sent and fetched the rulers over the hundreds, of the guards and the runners, and brought them to him into the house of the Lord, and made a covenant with them, and made them swear in the house of the Lord, and showed them the king's son.

E no sétimo ano enviou Joiada, e tomou os centuriões, com os capitães, e com os da guarda, e os meteu consigo na casa do Senhor: e fez com eles um concerto e os ajuramentou na casa do Senhor, e lhes mostrou o filho do rei.

5 And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that ye shall do: A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath shall even be keeping watch in the king's house;

E deu-lhes ordem, dizendo: Esta é a obra que vós haveis de fazer: uma terça parte de vós, que entra no sábado, fará a guarda da casa do rei:

6 And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the runners; so shall ye keep watch at the house, as a defence.

E outra terça parte estará à porta Sur; e a outra terça parte à porta detraz dos da guarda: assim fareis a guarda desta casa, afastando a todos.

7 And two parts of you all that are relieved on the sabbath, even they shall keep watch in the house of the Lord about the king.

E as duas partes de vós, a saber, todos os que saem no sábado, farão a guarda da casa do Senhor junto ao rei.

8 And ye shall encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he that cometh within the ranges shall be put to death: and be ye with the king when he goeth out and when he cometh in.

E rodeareis o rei, cada um com as suas armas nas mãos, e aquele que entrar entre as fileiras o matarão; e vós estareis com o rei quando sair e quando entrar.

9 And the captains over the hundreds did in accordance with all that Yohayada' the priest had commanded: and they took every man his men that came in on the sabbath, with those that were to be relieved on the sabbath, and came to Yehoyada' the priest.

Fizeram pois os centuriões conforme tudo quanto ordenara o sacerdote Joiada, tomando cada um os seus homens, tanto aos que entravam no sábado como aos que saiam no sábado; e vieram ao sacerdote Joiada.

10 And the priest gave to the captains over the hundred the spears and shields that had belonged to king David, that were in the house of the Lord.

E o sacerdote deu aos centuriões as lanças, e os escudos que haviam sido do rei David, que estavam na casa do Senhor.

11 And the runners stood every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, by the altar and within, round about the king.

E os da guarda se puseram, cada um com as armas na mão, desde o lado direito da casa até ao lado esquerdo da casa, da banda do altar, e da banda da casa, junto ao rei em redor.

12 And he brought forth the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and [gave him] the testimony, and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, Long live the king.

Então ele tirou o filho do rei, e lhe pôs a coroa, e lhe deu o testemunho; e o fizeram rei, e o ungiram, e bateram as mãos, e disseram: Viva o rei!

13 And when 'Athalyah heard the noise of the runners [and] of the people, she came to the people in the house of the Lord.

E Athalia, ouvindo a voz dos da guarda e do povo, entrou ao povo na casa do Senhor.

14 And she looked, and, behold, the king stood upon a stand, according to custom, and the princes and the trumpeters were by the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing, and blowing with trumpets: and 'Athalyah then rent her clothes, and cried, Conspiracy! conspiracy!

E olhou, e eis que o rei estava junto à coluna, conforme o costume, e os capitães e as trombetas junto ao rei, e todo o povo da terra estava alegre e tocava as trombetas: então Athalia rasgou os seus vestidos, e clamou: Traição! Traição!

15 But Yehoyada' the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds, the commanders of the army, and said unto them, Lead her forth to within the ranges: and him that followeth her put to death with the sword. For the priest had said, She shall not be slain in the house of the Lord.

Porém o sacerdote Joiada deu ordem aos centuriões que comandavam as tropas, e disse-lhes: tirai-a para fora das fileiras, e a quem a seguir matai-o à espada. Porque o sacerdote disse: Não a matem na casa do Senhor.

16 And they made way for her; and she went by the way of the entrance of the horses into the king's house: and she was put to death there.

E lançaram-lhe as mãos a ela, e foi pelo caminho da entrada dos cavalos à casa do rei, e ali a mataram.

17 And Yehoyada' made a covenant between the Lord and between the king and between the people, that they should be a people unto the Lord; and between the king and between the people.

E Joiada fez um concerto entre o Senhor e o rei e o povo, que seria o povo do Senhor; como também entre o rei e o povo.

18 And then came all the people of the land into the house of Ba'al, and pulled it down: his altars and his images they broke in pieces thoroughly, and Mattan the priest of Ba'al they slew before the altars. And the priest appointed superintendents over the house of the Lord.

Então todo o povo da terra entrou na casa de Baal, e a derribaram, como também os seus altares, e as suas imagens totalmente quebraram, e a Mattan, sacerdote de Baal, mataram perante os altares: então o sacerdote pôs oficiais sobre a casa do Senhor.

19 And he took the chiefs over hundreds, and the guards, and the runners, and all the people of the land, and they brought down the king from the house of the Lord, and came by the way of the gate of the runners to the king's house: and he sat on the throne of the kings.

E tomou os centuriões, e os capitães, e os da guarda, e todo o povo da terra: e conduziram da casa do Senhor o rei, e vieram, pelo caminho da porta dos da guarda, à casa do rei, e se assentou no trono dos reis.

20 And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet; but 'Athalyah they had slain with the sword at the king's house.

E todo o povo da terra se alegrou, e a cidade repousou, depois que mataram a Athalia à espada junto à casa do rei.

21 Seven years old was Jehoash when he became king.

Era Joás da idade de sete anos quando o fizeram rei.
