2 Crônicas 34
1 Tinha Josias oito annos quando começou a reinar, e trinta e um annos reinou em Jerusalem.
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem.
2 E fez o que era recto aos olhos do Senhor: e andou nos caminhos de David, seu pae, sem se desviar d'elles nem para a direita nem para a esquerda.
He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, and walked in the ways of David his father, and didn’t turn away to the right hand or to the left.
3 Porque no oitavo anno do seu reinado, sendo ainda moço, começou a buscar o Deus de David, seu pae; e no duodecimo anno começou a purificar a Judah e a Jerusalem, dos altos, e dos bosques, e das imagens d'esculptura e de fundição.
For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father; and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, the Asherah poles, the engraved images, and the molten images.
4 E derribaram perante elle os altares de Baalim; e cortou as imagens do sol, que estavam acima d'elles: e os bosques, e as imagens d'esculptura e de fundição quebrou e reduziu a pó, e o espargiu sobre as sepulturas dos que lhes tinham sacrificado.
They broke down the altars of the Baals in his presence; and he cut down the incense altars that were on high above them. He broke the Asherah poles, the engraved images, and the molten images in pieces, made dust of them, and scattered it on the graves of those who had sacrificed to them.
5 E os ossos dos sacerdotes queimou sobre os seus altares: e purificou a Judah e a Jerusalem.
He burned the bones of the priests on their altars, and purged Judah and Jerusalem.
6 O mesmo fez nas cidades de Manasseh, e d'Ephraim, e de Simeão, e ainda até Naphtali; em seus logares ao redor, assolados.
He did this in the cities of Manasseh, Ephraim, and Simeon, even to Naphtali, around in their ruins.
7 E, tendo derribado os altares, e os bosques, e as imagens de esculptura, até reduzil-os a pó, e tendo cortado todas as imagens do sol em toda a terra d'Israel, então voltou para Jerusalem.
He broke down the altars, beat the Asherah poles and the engraved images into powder, and cut down all the incense altars throughout all Eretz-Israel, then returned to Jerusalem.
8 E no anno decimo oitavo do seu reinado, havendo já purificado a terra e a casa, enviou a Saphan, filho d'Asalias, e a Maaseias, maioral da cidade, e a Joah, filho de Joachaz, registrador, para repararem a casa do Senhor, seu Deus.
Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purged the land and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder to repair the house of the LORD his God.
9 E vieram a Hilkias, summo sacerdote, e deram o dinheiro que se tinha trazido á casa do Senhor, e que os levitas que guardavam o umbral tinham colligido da mão de Manasseh, e d'Ephraim, e de todo o resto de Israel, como tambem de todo o Judah e Benjamin: e voltaram para Jerusalem.
They came to Hilkiah the high priest and delivered the money that was brought into God’s house, which the Levites, the keepers of the threshold, had gathered from the hands of Manasseh, Ephraim, of all the remnant of Israel, of all Judah and Benjamin, and of the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
10 E o deram na mão dos que tinham cargo da obra, e superintendiam sobre a casa do Senhor: e estes o deram aos que faziam a obra, e trabalhavam na casa do Senhor, para concertarem e repararem a casa.
They delivered it into the hands of the workmen who had the oversight of the LORD’s house; and the workmen who labored in the LORD’s house gave it to mend and repair the house.
11 E o deram aos mestres da obra, e aos edificadores, para comprarem pedras lavradas, e madeira para as junturas: e para sobradarem as casas que os reis de Judah tinham destruido.
They gave it to the carpenters and to the builders to buy cut stone and timber for couplings, and to make beams for the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed.
12 E estes homens trabalhavam fielmente na obra; e os superintendentes sobre elles eram: Johath e Obadias, levitas, dos filhos de Merari, como tambem Zacharias e Mesullam, dos filhos dos kohathitas, para avançarem a obra: estes levitas todos eram entendidos em instrumentos de musica.
The men did the work faithfully. Their overseers were Jahath and Obadiah the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to give direction; and others of the Levites, who were all skillful with musical instruments.
13 Estavam tambem sobre os carregadores e os inspectores de todos os que trabalhavam em alguma obra; e d'entre os levitas eram os escrivães, e os officiaes e os porteiros.
Also they were over the bearers of burdens, and directed all who did the work in every kind of service. Of the Levites, there were scribes, officials, and gatekeepers.
14 E, tirando elles o dinheiro que se tinha trazido á casa do Senhor, Hilkias, o sacerdote, achou o livro da lei do Senhor, dada pela mão de Moysés.
When they brought out the money that was brought into the LORD’s house, Hilkiah the priest found the book of the LORD’s law given by Moses.
15 E Hilkias respondeu, e disse a Saphan, o escrivão: Achei o livro da lei na casa do Senhor. E Hilkias deu o livro a Saphan.
Hilkiah answered Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the scroll of the Torah in the LORD’s house.” So Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan.
16 E Saphan levou o livro ao rei, e deu conta tambem ao rei, dizendo: Teus servos fazem tudo quanto se lhes encommendou.
Shaphan carried the book to the king, and moreover brought back word to the king, saying, “All that was committed to your servants, they are doing.
17 E ajuntaram o dinheiro que se achou na casa do Senhor, e o deram na mão dos superintendentes e na mão dos que faziam a obra.
They have emptied out the money that was found in the LORD’s house, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers and into the hand of the workmen.”
18 De mais d'isto, Saphan, o escrivão, fez saber ao rei, dizendo: O sacerdote Hilkias me deu um livro. E Saphan leu n'elle perante o rei.
Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has delivered me a book.” Shaphan read from it to the king.
19 Succedeu pois que, ouvindo o rei as palavras da lei, rasgou os seus vestidos.
When the king had heard the words of the law, he tore his clothes.
20 E o rei mandou a Hilkias, e a Ahikam, filho de Saphan, e a Abdon, filho de Micah, e a Saphan, o escrivão, e a Asaias, ministro do rei, dizendo:
The king commanded Hilkiah, Ahikam the son of Shaphan, Abdon the son of Micah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king’s servant, saying,
21 Ide, consultae ao Senhor por mim, e pelo que fica de resto em Israel e em Judah, sobre as palavras d'este livro que se achou; porque grande é o furor do Senhor, que se derramou sobre nós; porquanto nossos paes não guardaram a palavra do Senhor, para fazerem conforme a tudo quanto está escripto n'este livro.
“Go inquire of the LORD for me, and for those who are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found; for great is the LORD’s wrath that is poured out on us, because our fathers have not kept the LORD’s word, to do according to all that is written in this book.”
22 Então Hilkias, e os enviados do rei, foram ter com a prophetiza Hulda, mulher de Sallum, filho de Tokhath, filho d'Hasra, guarda dos vestimentos (e habitava ella em Jerusalem na segunda parte); e fallaram-lhe segundo isto,
So Hilkiah and those whom the king had commanded went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe (now she lived in Jerusalem in the second quarter), and they spoke to her to that effect.
23 E ella lhes disse: Assim diz o Senhor, Deus d'Israel: Dizei ao homem que vos enviou a mim:
She said to them, “The LORD, the God of Israel says: ‘Tell the man who sent you to me,
24 Assim diz o Senhor: Eis que trarei mal sobre este logar, e sobre os seus habitantes, a saber: todas as maldições que estão escriptas no livro que se leu perante o rei de Judah.
“The LORD says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on this place and on its inhabitants, even all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah.
25 Porque me deixaram, e queimaram incenso perante outros deuses, para me provocarem á ira com toda a obra das suas mãos; portanto o meu furor se derramou sobre este logar, e não se apagará.
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands, therefore my wrath is poured out on this place, and it will not be quenched.’”’
26 Porém ao rei de Judah, que vos enviou a consultar ao Senhor, assim lhe direis: Assim diz o Senhor, Deus d'Israel, quanto ás palavras que ouviste:
But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, you shall tell him this, ‘The LORD, the God of Israel says: “About the words which you have heard,
27 Porquanto o teu coração se enterneceu, e te humilhaste perante Deus, ouvindo as suas palavras contra este logar, e contra os seus habitantes, e te humilhaste perante mim, e rasgaste os teus vestidos, e choraste perante mim, tambem eu te tenho ouvido, diz o Senhor.
because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before God when you heard his words against this place and against its inhabitants, and have humbled yourself before me, and have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you,” says the LORD.
28 Eis que te ajuntarei a teus paes, e tu serás recolhido ao teu sepulchro em paz, e os teus olhos não verão todo este mal que hei de trazer sobre este logar e sobre os seus habitantes. E tornaram com esta resposta ao rei.
“Behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes won’t see all the evil that I will bring on this place and on its inhabitants.”’” They brought back this message to the king.
29 Então enviou o rei, e ajuntou a todos os anciãos de Judah e Jerusalem.
Then the king sent and gathered together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
30 E o rei subiu á casa do Senhor, com todos os homens de Judah, e os habitantes de Jerusalem, e os sacerdotes, e os levitas, e todo o povo, desde o maior até ao mais pequeno: e elle leu aos ouvidos d'elles todas as palavras do livro do concerto, que se tinha achado na casa do Senhor.
The king went up to the LORD’s house with all the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem—the priests, the Levites, and all the people, both great and small—and he read in their hearing all the words of the book of the covenant that was found in the LORD’s house.
31 E poz-se o rei em pé em seu logar, e fez concerto perante o Senhor, para andar após o Senhor, e para guardar os seus mandamentos, e os seus testemunhos, e os seus estatutos, com todo o seu coração, e com toda a sua alma, fazendo as palavras do concerto, que estão escriptas n'aquelle livro.
The king stood in his place and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments, his testimonies, and his statutes with all his heart and with all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant that were written in this book.
32 E fez estar em pé a todos quantos se acharam em Jerusalem e em Benjamin: e os habitantes de Jerusalem fizeram conforme ao concerto de Deus, do Deus de seus paes.
He caused all who were found in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand. The inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
33 E Josias tirou todas as abominações de todas as terras que eram dos filhos d'Israel; e a todos quantos se acharam em Israel obrigou a que com tal culto servissem ao Senhor seu Deus: todos os seus dias não se desviaram d'após o Senhor, Deus de seus paes.
Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that belonged to the children of Israel, and made all who were found in Israel to serve, even to serve the LORD their God. All his days they didn’t depart from following the LORD, the God of their fathers.
