Isaías 37
1 E aconteceu que, tendo-o ouvido o rei Ezequias, rasgou os seus vestidos, e se cobriu de sacco, e entrou na casa do Senhor.
And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the LORD.
2 Então enviou a Eliakim, o mordomo, e a Sebna, o escrivão, e aos anciãos dos sacerdotes, cobertos de saccos, a Isaias, filho d'Amós, o propheta.
And he sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests covered with sackcloth, unto Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.
3 E disseram-lhe: Assim diz Ezequias: Este dia é dia d'angustia e de vituperação, e de blasphemias; porque chegados são os filhos ao parto, e força não ha para parir
And they said unto him, Thus says Hezekiah, This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of blasphemy: for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
4 Porventura o Senhor teu Deus ouvirá as palavras de Rabsaké, a quem enviou o seu senhor, o rei da Assyria, para affrontar o Deus vivo, e para vituperal-o com as palavras que o Senhor teu Deus tem ouvido: faze oração pelo resto que ainda se acha.
It may be the LORD your God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to reproach the living God, and will reprove the words which the LORD your God has heard: wherefore lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left.
5 E os servos do rei Ezequias vieram a Isaias.
So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 E Isaias lhes disse: Assim direis a vosso senhor: Assim diz o Senhor: Não temas á vista das palavras que ouviste, com as quaes os servos do rei da Assyria me blasphemaram.
And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall all of you say unto your master, Thus says the LORD, Be not afraid of the words that you have heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
7 Eis que metterei n'elle um espirito, e elle ouvirá um arroido, e voltará para a sua terra; e fal-o-hei cair morto á espada na sua terra.
Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumour, and return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.
8 Voltou pois Rabsaké, e achou ao rei da Assyria pelejando contra Libna; porque ouvira que já se havia retirado de Lachis.
So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.
9 E, ouvindo elle dizer que Tirhaká, rei da Ethiopia, tinha saido para lhe fazer guerra, assim como o ouviu, tornou a enviar mensageiros a Ezequias, dizendo:
And he heard say concerning Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, He has come forth to make war with you. And when he heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,
10 Assim fallareis a Ezequias, rei de Judah, dizendo: Não te engane o teu Deus, em quem confias, dizendo: Jerusalem não será entregue na mão do rei da Assyria.
Thus shall all of you speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, Let not your God, in whom you trust, deceive you, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
11 Eis que já tens ouvido o que fizeram os reis da Assyria a todas as terras, destruindo-as totalmente: e escaparias tu?
Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands by destroying them utterly; and shall you be delivered?
12 Porventura as livraram os deuses das nações ás quaes meus paes destruiram, como a Gozan, e a Haran, e a Reseph, e aos filhos d'Eden, que estavam em Telassar?
Have the gods of the nations delivered them which my fathers have destroyed, as Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden which were in Telassar?
13 Onde está o rei d'Hamath, e o rei d'Arpad, e o rei da cidade de Sepharvaim, Hena e Iva?
Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arphad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah?
14 Recebendo pois Ezequias as cartas das mãos dos mensageiros, e lendo-as, subiu á casa do Senhor e Ezequias as estendeu perante o Senhor.
And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD.
15 E orou Ezequias ao Senhor, dizendo:
And Hezekiah prayed unto the LORD, saying,
16 Ó Senhor dos Exercitos, Deus d'Israel, que habitas entre os cherubins; tu mesmo, só tu és Deus de todos os reinos da terra; tu fizeste os céus e a terra.
O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwell between the cherubims, you are the God, even you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth: you have made heaven and earth.
17 Inclina, ó Senhor, o teu ouvido, e ouve: abre, Senhor, os teus olhos, e olha; e ouve todas as palavras de Senacherib, o qual enviou para affrontar o Deus vivo.
Incline your ear, O LORD, and hear; open your eyes, O LORD, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which has sent to reproach the living God.
18 Verdade é, Senhor, que os reis da Assyria assolaram todas as terras, com as suas comarcas,
Truthfully, LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the nations, and their countries,
19 E lançaram no fogo os seus deuses; porque deuses não eram, senão obra de mãos d'homens, madeira e pedra; por isso os destruiram.
And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them.
20 Agora pois, ó Senhor nosso Deus, livra-nos da sua mão; e assim saberão todos os reinos da terra, que só tu és o Senhor.
Now therefore, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you are the LORD, even you only.
21 Então Isaias, filho d'Amós, mandou dizer a Ezequias: Assim diz o Senhor, o Deus d'Israel: Quanto ao que me pediste ácerca de Senacherib, rei da Assyria,
Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent unto Hezekiah, saying, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, Whereas you have prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria:
22 Esta é a palavra que o Senhor fallou d'elle: A virgem, a filha de Sião, te despreza, de ti zomba; a filha de Jerusalem menea a cabeça por detraz de ti
This is the word which the LORD has spoken concerning him; The virgin, the daughter of Zion, has despised you, and laughed you to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head at you.
23 A quem affrontaste e blasphemaste? e contra quem alçaste a voz, e ergueste os teus olhos ao alto? Contra o Sancto d'Israel.
Whom have you reproached and blasphemed? and against whom have you exalted your voice, and lifted up your eyes on high? even against the Holy One of Israel.
24 Por meio de teus servos affrontaste o Senhor, e disseste: Com a multidão dos meus carros subi eu aos cumes dos montes, aos lados do Libano; e cortarei os seus altos cedros e as suas faias escolhidas, e entrarei na altura do seu cume, ao bosque do seu campo fertil.
By your servants have you reproached the Lord, and have said, By the multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down the tall cedars thereof, and the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the height of his border, and the forest of his Carmel.
25 Eu cavei, e bebi as aguas; e com as plantas de meus pés sequei todos os rios do Egypto.
I have dug, and drunk water; and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of the besieged places.
26 Porventura não ouviste que já muito d'antes eu fiz isto, e já desde os dias antigos o formei? agora porém o fiz vir, para que tu fosses o que destruisses as cidades fortes, e as reduzisses a montões assolados.
Have you not heard long ago, how I have done it; and of ancient times, that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that you should be to lay waste defenced cities into ruinous heaps.
27 Por isso os seus moradores, com as mãos caidas, andaram atemorisados e envergonhados: eram como a herva do campo, e a hortaliça verde, e o feno dos telhados, e o trigo queimado antes da seara.
Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded: they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.
28 Porém eu sei o teu assentar, e o teu sair, e o teu entrar, e o teu furor contra mim.
But I know your abode, and your going out, and your coming in, and your rage against me.
29 Por causa do teu furor contra mim, e porque o teu tumulto subiu até aos meus ouvidos, portanto porei o meu anzol no seu nariz e o meu freio nos teus beiços, e te farei voltar pelo caminho por onde vieste.
Because your rage against me, and your tumult, has come up into mine ears, therefore will I put my hook in your nose, and my bridle in your lips, and I will turn you back by the way by which you came.
30 E isto te seja por signal, que este anno se comerá o que de si mesmo nascer, e no segundo anno o que d'ahi proceder: porém no terceiro anno semeae e segae, e plantae vinhas, e comei os fructos d'ellas.
And this shall be a sign unto you, All of you shall eat this year such as grows of itself; and the second year that which springs of the same: and in the third year sow all of you, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof.
31 Porque o que escapou da casa de Judah, e ficou de resto, tornará a lançar raizes para baixo, e dará fructo para cima.
And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward:
32 Porque de Jerusalem sairá o restante, e do monte de Sião o que escapou: o zelo do Senhor dos Exercitos fará isto.
For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and they that escape out of mount Zion: the zeal of the LORD of hosts shall do this.
33 Pelo que assim diz o Senhor ácerca do rei da Assyria: Não entrará n'esta cidade, nem lançará n'ella frecha alguma: tão pouco virá perante ella com escudo, nem levantará contra ella tranqueira alguma.
Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shields, nor cast a bank against it.
34 Pelo caminho por onde vier, por esse voltará; porém n'esta cidade não entrará, diz o Senhor.
By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, says the LORD.
35 Porque eu ampararei a esta cidade, para a livrar, por amor de mim e por amor do meu servo David.
For I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
36 Então saiu o anjo do Senhor, e feriu no arraial dos assyrios a cento e oitenta e cinco mil d'elles; e, levantando-se pela manhã cedo, eis que tudo eram corpos mortos.
Then the angel of the LORD went forth, and stroke in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
37 Assim Senacherib, rei da Assyria, se retirou, e se foi, e voltou, e se ficou em Ninive.
So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
38 E succedeu que, estando elle prostrado na casa de Nisroch, seu deus, Adramelech e Sarezer, seus filhos, o feriram á espada; porém elles se escaparam para a terra d'Ararat, e Esarhaddon, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons stroke him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Armenia: and Esarhaddon his son reigned in his position.
