2 Reis 23

1 Então o rei enviou aviso, e juntaram a ele todos os anciãos de Judá e de Jerusalém.

And the king sent, and they gathered to him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.

2 E subiu o rei à casa do SENHOR com todos os homens de Judá, e com todos os moradores de Jerusalém, com os sacerdotes e profetas e com todo o povo, desde o menor até o maior; e leu, ouvindo-o eles, todas as palavras do livro do pacto que havia sido achado na casa do SENHOR.

And the king went up into the house of Jehovah, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great; and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which had been found in the house of Jehovah.

3 E pondo-se o rei em pé junto à coluna, fez aliança diante do SENHOR, de que seguiriam o SENHOR, e guardariam seus mandamentos, e seus testemunhos, e seus estatutos, com todo o coração e com toda a alma, e que cumpririam as palavras da aliança que estavam escritas naquele livro. E todo o povo confirmou o pacto.

And the king stood on the dais, and made a covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all [his] heart, and with all [his] soul, to establish the words of this covenant that are written in this book. And all the people stood to the covenant.

4 Então mandou el rei ao sumo sacerdote Hilquias, e aos sacerdotes de segunda ordem, e aos guardiões da porta, que tirassem do templo do SENHOR todos os vasos que haviam sido feitos para Baal, e para o bosque, e para toda o exército do céu; e queimou-os fora de Jerusalém no campo de Cedrom, e fez levar as cinzas deles a Betel.

And the king commanded Hilkijah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the doorkeepers, to bring forth out of the temple of Jehovah all the vessels that had been made for Baal, and for the Asherah, and for all the host of the heavens; and he burned them outside Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them to Bethel.

5 E tirou aos sacerdotes pagãos, que haviam posto os reis de Judá para que queimassem incenso nos altos nas cidades de Judá, e nos arredores de Jerusalém; e também aos que queimavam incenso a Baal, ao sol e à lua, e às constelações, e a todo o exército do céu.

And he abolished the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense on the high places in the cities of Judah, and the environs of Jerusalem; and them that burned incense to Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the constellations, and to all the host of heaven.

6 Fez também tirar o bosque fora da casa do SENHOR, fora de Jerusalém, ao ribeiro de Cedrom, e queimou-o no ribeiro de Cedrom, e tornou-o em pó, e lançou o pó dele sobre os sepulcros dos filhos do povo.

And he brought out the Asherah from the house of Jehovah, outside Jerusalem, to the torrent of Kidron, and burned it at the torrent of Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder upon the graves of the children of the people.

7 Além disso derrubou as casas dos sodomitas que estavam na casa do SENHOR, nas quais teciam as mulheres tendas para o bosque.

And he broke down the houses of the sodomites, which were in the house of Jehovah, where the women wove tents for the Asherah.

8 E fez vir todos os sacerdotes das cidades de Judá, e profanou os altos de onde os sacerdotes queimavam incenso, desde Gibeá até Berseba; e derrubou os altares das portas que estavam à entrada da porta de Josué, governador da cidade, que estavam à esquerda da porta da cidade.

And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba even to Beer-sheba; and he broke down the high places of the gates, those at the entrance of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, [and] those on the left hand of any [going in] at the gate of the city.

9 Porém os sacerdotes dos altos não subiam ao altar do SENHOR em Jerusalém, mas comiam pães sem levedura entre seus irmãos.

Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of Jehovah in Jerusalem, but they ate of the unleavened bread among their brethren.

10 Também profanou a Tofete, que está no vale do filho de Hinom, porque ninguém passasse seu filho ou sua filha por fogo a Moloque.

And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the sons of Hinnom, that no man might cause his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.

11 Tirou também os cavalos que os reis de Judá haviam dedicado ao sol à entrada do templo do SENHOR, junto à câmara de Natã-Meleque eunuco, a qual ficava nos recintos; e queimou ao fogo os carros do sol.

And he abolished the horses that the kings of Judah had appointed to the sun at the entrance of the house of Jehovah, by the chamber of Nathan-melech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun, with fire.

12 Derrubou também o rei os altares que estavam sobre o terraço da sala de Acaz, que os reis de Judá haviam feito, e os altares que havia feito Manassés nos dois átrios da casa do SENHOR; e dali correu e lançou o pó no ribeiro de Cedrom.

And the king broke down the altars that were on the roof of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars that Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of Jehovah, and he shattered them, [removing them] from thence, and cast the powder of them into the torrent of Kidron.

13 Também profanou o rei os altos que estavam diante de Jerusalém, à direita do monte da destruição, os quais Salomão rei de Israel havia edificado a Astarote, abominação dos sidônios, e a Camos abominação de Moabe, e a Milcom abominação dos filhos de Amom.

And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile.

14 E quebrou as estátuas, e arrancou os bosques, e encheu o lugar deles de ossos de homens.

And he broke in pieces the columns, and cut down the Asherahs, and filled their place with the bones of men.

15 Igualmente o altar que estava em Betel, e o alto que havia feito Jeroboão filho de Nebate, o que fez pecar a Israel, aquele altar e o alto destruiu; e queimou o alto, e o tornou em pó, e pôs fogo ao bosque.

Moreover the altar that was at Bethel, the high place that Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he broke down; and burned the high place, stamped it small to powder, and burned the Asherah.

16 E voltou-se Josias, e vendo os sepulcros que estavam ali no monte, enviou e tirou os ossos dos sepulcros, e queimou-os sobre o altar para contaminá-lo, conforme à palavra do SENHOR que havia profetizado o homem de Deus, o qual havia anunciado estes negócios.

And Josiah turned himself, and saw the sepulchres that were there on the mount; and he sent and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burned [them] upon the altar, and defiled it, according to the word of Jehovah, that the man of God had proclaimed, who proclaimed these things.

17 E depois disse: Que monumento é este que vejo? E os da cidade lhe responderam: Este é o sepulcro do homem de Deus que veio de Judá, e profetizou estas coisas que tu fizeste sobre o altar de Betel.

Then he said, What tombstone is that which I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God who came from Judah and proclaimed these things which thou hast done against the altar of Bethel.

18 E ele disse: Deixai-o; ninguém mova seus ossos: e assim foram preservados seus ossos, e os ossos do profeta que havia vindo de Samaria.

And he said, Let him alone; let no man move his bones. And they saved his bones, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.

19 E todas as casas dos altos que estavam nas cidades de Samaria, as quais haviam feito os reis de Israel para provocar a ira, tirou-as também Josias, e fez delas como havia feito em Betel.

And all the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke [Jehovah] to anger, Josiah removed, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Bethel.

20 Também matou sobre os altares a todos os sacerdotes dos altos que ali estavam, e queimou sobre eles ossos de homens, e voltou-se a Jerusalém.

And he sacrificed upon the altars all the priests of the high places that were there, and burned men's bones upon them. And he returned to Jerusalem.

21 Então mandou o rei a todo o povo, dizendo: Fazei a páscoa ao SENHOR vosso Deus, conforme o que está escrito no livro desta aliança.

And the king commanded all the people saying, Hold the passover to Jehovah your God, as it is written in this book of the covenant.

22 Não foi feita tal páscoa desde os tempos dos juízes que governaram a Israel, nem em todos os tempos dos reis de Israel, e dos reis de Judá.

For there was not holden such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;

23 Aos dezoito anos do rei Josias foi feita aquela páscoa ao SENHOR em Jerusalém.

but in the eighteenth year of king Josiah was this passover holden to Jehovah in Jerusalem.

24 Também expulsou Josias os necromantes, adivinhos, e ídolos, e todas as abominações que se viam na terra de Judá e em Jerusalém, para cumprir as palavras da lei que estavam escritas no livro que o sacerdote Hilquias havia achado na casa do SENHOR.

Moreover the necromancers and the soothsayers, and the teraphim and the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, Josiah took away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkijah the priest had found in the house of Jehovah.

25 Não houve tal rei antes dele que se convertesse ao SENHOR de todo seu coração, e de toda sua alma, e de todas suas forças, conforme a toda a lei de Moisés; nem depois dele nasceu outro tal.

And before him there had been no king like him that turned to Jehovah with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there his like.

26 Contudo isso, o SENHOR não se desviou do ardor de sua grande ira, com que se havia encendido sua ira contra Judá, por todas as provocações com que Manassés lhe havia irritado.

But Jehovah turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocations with which Manasseh had provoked him.

27 E disse o SENHOR: Também tirarei de minha presença a Judá, como tirei a Israel, e abominarei a esta cidade que havia escolhido, a Jerusalém, e à casa da qual havia eu dito: Meu nome será ali.

And Jehovah said, I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and will reject this city Jerusalem which I have chosen, and the house of which I said, My name shall be there.

28 Os demais dos feitos de Josias, e todas as coisas que fez, não está tudo escrito no livro das crônicas dos reis de Judá?

And the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

29 Em aqueles dias Faraó Neco rei do Egito subiu contra o rei da Assíria ao rio Eufrates, e saiu contra ele o rei Josias; mas aquele assim que lhe viu, o matou em Megido.

In his days Pharaoh-Nechoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates; and king Josiah went against him; but [Nechoh] slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen him.

30 E seus servos o puseram em um carro, e trouxeram-no morto de Megido a Jerusalém, e sepultaram-no em seu sepulcro. Então o povo da terra tomou a Jeoacaz filho de Josias, e ungiram-lhe e puseram-no por rei em lugar de seu pai.

And his servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulchre. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father's stead.

31 De vinte e três anos era Jeoacaz quando começou a reinar, e reinou três meses em Jerusalém. O nome de sua mãe foi Hamutal, filha de Jeremias de Libna.

Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.

32 E ele fez o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR, conforme todas as coisas que seus pais haviam feito.

And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that his fathers had done.

33 E lançou-o preso Faraó Neco em Ribla na província de Hamate, para que ele não reinasse em Jerusalém; e impôs sobre a terra uma multa de cem talentos de prata, e um de ouro.

And Pharaoh-Nechoh had him bound at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and laid a tribute upon the land of a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.

34 Então Faraó Neco pôs por rei a Eliaquim filho de Josias, em lugar de Josias seu pai, e mudou-lhe o nome no de Jeoaquim; e tomou a Jeoacaz, e levou-o ao Egito, e morreu ali.

And Pharaoh-Nechoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king instead of Josiah his father, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. And he took Jehoahaz; and he came to Egypt, and died there.

35 E Jeoaquim pagou a Faraó a prata e o ouro; mas fez tributar a terra para dar o dinheiro conforme ao mandamento de Faraó, tirando a prata e ouro do povo da terra, de cada um segundo a avaliação de sua riqueza, para dar a Faraó Neco.

And Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he laid a proportional tax on the land to give the money according to the command of Pharaoh: he exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of every one according to his estimation, to give it to Pharaoh-Nechoh.

36 De vinte e cinco anos era Jeoaquim quando começou a reinar, e onze anos reinou em Jerusalém. O nome de sua mãe foi Zebida filha de Pedaías, de Ruma.

Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Zebuddah, daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.

37 E fez o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR, conforme todas as coisas que seus pais haviam feito.

And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that his fathers had done.
