2 Chronicles 16

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SAGRADA BIBLIA
1 And in the six and thirtieth year of his kingdom, Baasa the king of Israel came up against Juda, and built a wall about Rama, that no one might safely go out or come in of the kingdom of Asa.	1 Mas no trigésimo sexto ano do reinado de Asa, rei de Israel, Baasa fez guerra contra Judá. Fez fortificações em Ramá, a fim de bloquear todas as comunicações com Asa, rei de Judá.
2 Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the Lord, and of the king's treasures, and sent to Benadad king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:	2 Mas Asa mandou tomar a prata e o ouro dos tesouros do templo e do palácio real, e enviou uma delegação a Ben-Hadad, rei da Síria, para lhe dizer:
3 There is a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father, wherefore I have sent thee silver and gold, that thou mayst break thy league with Baasa king of Israel, and make him depart from me.	3 Aliemo-nos, como foram aliados teu pai e o meu. Eu te envio prata e ouro. Rompe tua aliança com Baasa, rei de Israel, para que ele se afaste de mim.
4 And then Benadad heard this, he sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel: and they took Ahion, and Dan, and Abelmaim, and all the walled cities of Nephtali.	4 Ben-Hadad ouviu o rei Asa: enviou seus generais contra as cidades de Israel. Estes tomaram Aion, Dã, Abel-Main e todas as cidades de Neftali que serviam de entrepostos.
5 And when Baasa heard of it, he left off the building of Rama, and interrupted his work.	5 A essa notícia, Baasa interrompeu os trabalhos de fortificação de Ramá.
6 Then king Asa took all Juda, and they carried away from Rama the stones, and the timber that Baasa had prepared for the building: and he built with them Gabaa, and Maspha.	6 Então o rei Asa convocou todos os judeus para tirar as pedras e madeiras das quais Baasa se tinha servido para construir Ramá: serviu-se delas para fortificar Gabaa e Masfa.
7 At that time Hanani the prophet came to Asa king of Juda, and said to him: Because thou hast had confidence in the king of Syria, and not in the Lord thy God, therefore hath the army of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hand.	7 Por essa época, o vidente Hanani veio à procura de Asa, rei de Judá, e lhe disse: Porque te apoiaste no rei da Síria e não no Senhor teu Deus, o exército da Síria escapou de tuas mãos.
8 Were not the Ethiopians, and the Libyans much more numerous in chariots, and horsemen, and an exceeding great multitude: yet because thou trustedst in the Lord, he delivered them into thy hand?	8 Não formavam os etíopes e os líbios um exército inumerável, com uma multidão de carros e cavaleiros? E, contudo, o Senhor os entregou a ti porque tu te apoiaste nele.
9 For the eyes of the Lord behold all the earth, and give strength to those who with a perfect heart trust in him. Wherefore thou hast done foolishly, and for this cause from this time wars shall arise against thee.	9 Os olhos do Senhor percorrem toda a terra para sustentar aqueles cujo coração lhe é totalmente devotado. Tu te comportaste tolamente nesse negócio, pois doravante terás continuamente guerras.
10 And Asa was angry with the seer, and commanded him to be put in prison: for he was greatly enraged because of this thing: and he put to death many of the people at that time.	10 Irritado contra o vidente, no assomo de ira em que o puseram suas palavras, Asa mandou metê-lo na prisão. Pelo mesmo tempo, Asa oprimiu também alguns de seus súditos.
11 But the works of Asa the first and last are written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.	11 As ações e os feitos de Asa, desde os primeiros até os últimos, estão relatados no livro dos Reis de Judá e de Israel.
12 And Asa fell sick in the nine and thirtieth year of his reign, of a most violent pain in his feet, and yet in his illness he did not seek the Lord, but rather trusted in the skill of physicians.	12 No trigésimo nono ano de seu reinado, Asa tornou-se gotoso e sofreu violentamente. Durante sua doença, ele não procurou o apoio do Senhor, mas o dos médicos.
13 And he slept with his fathers: and he died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.	13 Ele adormeceu com seus pais e morreu no quadragésimo primeiro ano de seu reinado.
14 And they buried him in his own sepulchre, which he had made for himself in the city of David: and they laid him on his bed full of spices and odoriferous ointments, which were made by the art of the perfumers, and they burnt them over him with very great pomp.	14 Foi sepultado na tumba que tinha mandado cavar para si na cidade de Davi; estenderam-no num leito que tinham enchido de perfumes aromáticos, preparados segundo a arte do perfumista, e queimaram-lhe quantidade considerável desse perfume.
