2 Crônicas 31
1 Feitas todas estas coisas, todos os de Israel que se haviam achado ali, saíram pelas cidades de Judá, e quebraram as estátuas e destruíram os bosques, e derrubaram os altos e os altares por todo Judá e Benjamim, e também em Efraim e Manassés,
Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah and broke the pillars in pieces, cut down the Asherah poles, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, also in Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
2 E definiu Ezequias as repartições dos sacerdotes e dos levitas conforme a suas ordens, cada um segundo seu ofício, os sacerdotes e os levitas para o holocausto e pacíficos, para que ministrassem, para que confessassem e louvassem às portas dos acampamentos do SENHOR.
Hezekiah appointed the divisions of the priests and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of Yahweh’s camp.
3 A contribuição do rei de sua riqueza era holocaustos a manhã e tarde, e holocaustos para os sábados, novas luas, e solenidades, como está escrito na lei do SENHOR.
He also appointed the king’s portion of his possessions for the burnt offerings: for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths, for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in Yahweh’s law.
4 Mandou também ao povo que habitava em Jerusalém, que dessem a porção aos sacerdotes e levitas, para que se esforçassem na lei do SENHOR.
Moreover he commanded the people who lived in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to Yahweh’s law.
5 E quando este edito foi divulgado, os filhos de Israel deram muitas primícias de grão, vinho, azeite, mel, e de todos os frutos da terra: trouxeram também os dízimos de todas as coisas em abundância.
As soon as the commandment went out, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first fruits of grain, new wine, oil, honey, and of all the increase of the field; and they brought in the tithe of all things abundantly.
6 Também os filhos de Israel e de Judá, que habitavam nas cidades de Judá, deram do mesmo modo os dízimos das vacas e das ovelhas: e trouxeram os dízimos do santificado, das coisas que haviam prometido ao SENHOR seu Deus, e puseram-nos por amontoados.
The children of Israel and Judah, who lived in the cities of Judah, also brought in the tithe of cattle and sheep, and the tithe of dedicated things which were consecrated to Yahweh their God, and laid them in heaps.
7 No mês terceiro começaram a fundar aqueles amontoados, e no mês sétimo acabaram.
In the third month, they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
8 E Ezequias e os príncipes vieram a ver os amontoados, e bendisseram ao SENHOR, e a seu povo Israel.
When Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed Yahweh and his people Israel.
9 E perguntou Ezequias aos sacerdotes e aos levitas acerca dos amontoados.
Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites about the heaps.
10 E respondeu-lhe Azarias, sumo sacerdote, da casa de Zadoque, e disse: Desde que começaram a trazer a oferta à casa do SENHOR, comemos e nos saciamos, e nos sobrou muito: porque o SENHOR abençoou seu povo, e restou esta abundância.
Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, “Since people began to bring the offerings into Yahweh’s house, we have eaten and had enough, and have plenty left over, for Yahweh has blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store.”
11 Então mandou Ezequias que preparassem câmaras na casa do SENHOR; e prepararam-nas.
Then Hezekiah commanded them to prepare rooms in Yahweh’s house, and they prepared them.
12 E puseram as primícias e dízimos e as coisas consagradas, fielmente; e deram cargo disso a Conanias levita, o principal, e Simei seu irmão foi o segundo.
They brought in the offerings, the tithes, and the dedicated things faithfully. Conaniah the Levite was ruler over them, and Shimei his brother was second.
13 E Jeiel, Azazias, Naate, Asael, Jeremote, Jozabade, Eliel, Ismaquias, Maate, e Benaia, foram capatazes sob a mão de Conanias e de Simei seu irmão, por mandamento do rei Ezequias e de Azarias, príncipe da casa de Deus.
Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismachiah, Mahath, and Benaiah were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king and Azariah the ruler of God’s house.
14 E Coré filho de Imná levita, porteiro ao oriente, tinha cargo dos donativos de Deus, e das ofertas do SENHOR que se davam, e de tudo o que se santificava.
Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the gatekeeper at the east gate, was over the free will offerings of God, to distribute Yahweh’s offerings and the most holy things.
15 E a sua mão estava Éden, Benjamim, Jesua, Semaías, Amarias, e Secanias, nas cidades dos sacerdotes, para dar com fidelidade a seus irmãos suas partes conforme a suas ordens, assim ao maior como ao menor:
Under him were Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in their office of trust, to give to their brothers by divisions, to the great as well as to the small;
16 A mais dos homens anotados por suas linhagens, de três anos acima, a todos os que entravam na casa do SENHOR, sua porção diária por seu ministério, segundo seus ofícios e classes;
in addition to those who were listed by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even everyone who entered into Yahweh’s house, as the duty of every day required, for their service in their offices according to their divisions;
17 Também aos que eram contados entre os sacerdotes pelas famílias de seus pais, e aos levitas de idade de vinte anos acima, conforme a seus ofícios e ordens;
and those who were listed by genealogy of the priests by their fathers’ houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their offices by their divisions;
18 Assim aos de sua geração com todos seus meninos, e suas mulheres, e seus filhos e filhas, a toda a família; porque com fidelidade se consagravam às coisas santas.
and those who were listed by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation; for in their office of trust they sanctified themselves in holiness.
19 Do mesmo modo em ordem aos filhos de Arão, sacerdotes, que estavam nos campos de suas cidades, por todas as cidades, os homens nomeados tinham cargo de dar suas porções a todos os homens dos sacerdotes, e a toda a linhagem dos levitas.
Also for the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the pasture lands of their cities, in every city, there were men who were mentioned by name to give portions to all the males among the priests and to all who were listed by genealogy among the Levites.
20 De esta maneira fez Ezequias em todo Judá: e executou o que era bom, correto, e verdadeiro, diante do SENHOR seu Deus.
Hezekiah did so throughout all Judah; and he did that which was good, right, and faithful before Yahweh his God.
21 Em tudo quanto começou no serviço da casa de Deus, e na lei e mandamentos, buscou a seu Deus, e o fez de todo coração, e foi próspero.
In every work that he began in the service of God’s house, in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart and prospered.
