2 Kings 16

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SAGRADA BIBLIA
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah, the son of Remaliah: Ahaz, the son of Jotham, reigned as king of Judah.	1 No ano dezessete do reinado de Pecá, filho de Romelia, Acaz, filho de Joatão, rei de Judá, começou a reinar.
2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was pleasing in the sight of the Lord, his God, as his father David did.	2 Tinha vinte anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou durante dezesseis anos em Jerusalém; não fez o que era bom aos olhos do Senhor, seu Deus, como Davi, seu pai, mas seguiu as pegadas dos reis de Israel.
3 Instead, he walked in the way of the kings of Israel. Moreover, he even consecrated his son, making him pass through fire, in accord with the idols of the nations that the Lord destroyed before the sons of Israel.	3 Chegou até a passar seu filho pelo fogo, segundo o abominável costume dos povos que o Senhor tinha expulsado de diante dos filhos de Israel.
4 Also, he was immolating victims, and burning incense, in the high places, and on the hills, and under every leafy tree.	4 Oferecia sacrifícios e incenso nos lugares altos, nas colinas e debaixo de toda árvore frondosa.
5 Then Rezin, the king of Syria, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah, the king of Israel, ascended to do battle against Jerusalem. And they besieged Ahaz, but they were not able to overcome him.	5 Então Rasin, rei da Síria, e Pecá, filho de Romelia, rei de Israel, subiram e atacaram Jerusalém; cercaram Acaz, mas não o puderam vencer.
6 At that time, Rezin, the king of Syria, restored Elath to Syria, and he expelled the Judeans from Elath. And the Idumeans went into Elath, and they have lived there, even to this day.	6 Por aquele mesmo tempo, Rasin, rei da Síria, restituiu Elat aos edomitas, depois de ter expulsado dela os filhos de Judá, e os edomitas voltaram a Elat, onde estão até o dia de hoje.
7 Then Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser, the king of the Assyrians, saying: “I am your servant, and I am your son. Ascend and accomplish my salvation from the hand of the king of Syria, and from the hand of the king of Israel, who have risen up together against me.”	7 Acaz tinha enviado delegados a Teglat-Falasar, rei da Assíria para dizer-lhe: Eu sou teu servo e teu filho. Vem e livra-me das mãos do rei da Síria e do rei de Israel, que se coligaram contra mim.
8 And when he had collected the silver and the gold that could be found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasuries of the king, he sent it as a gift to the king of the Assyrians.	8 Acaz tomou a prata e o ouro que se encontravam no templo do Senhor e nas reservas do palácio real, e mandou-os de presente ao rei da Assíria.
9 And he agreed to his will. For the king of the Assyrians ascended against Damascus, and he laid waste to it. And he carried away its inhabitants to Cyrene. But Rezin he killed.	9 Este aquiesceu ao seu pedido: atacou Damasco e apoderou-se dela. Deportou a sua população para Quir e matou Rasin.
10 And king Ahaz traveled to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser, the king of the Assyrians. And when he had seen the altar of Damascus, king Ahaz sent to Uriah, the priest, its pattern and likeness, according to all of its work.	10 O rei Acaz foi a Damasco para entrevistar-se com Teglat-Falasar, rei da Assíria. Vendo o altar que se encontrava em Damasco, o rei Acaz mandou ao sacerdote Urias um modelo detalhado do mesmo com todas as suas dimensões.
11 And Uriah, the priest, constructed an altar in accord with all that king Ahaz had commanded from Damascus. Uriah, the priest, did so, until king Ahaz arrived from Damascus.	11 Urias construiu um altar exatamente conforme ao desenho que o rei Acaz lhe enviara de Damasco, e terminou-o antes que o rei voltasse.
12 And when the king had arrived from Damascus, he saw the altar, and he venerated it. And he went up and immolated holocausts, with his own sacrifice.	12 Quando o rei chegou de Damasco e viu o altar, aproximou-se e subiu a ele.
13 And he offered libations, and he poured out the blood of the peace offerings, which he had offered, upon the altar.	13 Queimou nele o seu holocausto e sua oblação, derramou libações e espargiu o sangue de seus sacrifícios pacíficos.
14 But the altar of brass, which was before the Lord, he took away from the face of the temple, and from the place of the altar, and from the place of the temple of the Lord. And he positioned it at the side of the altar, toward the north.	14 Quanto ao altar de bronze que estava diante do Senhor, tirou-o de diante do templo, entre o altar novo e o templo, e pô-lo ao norte do novo altar.
15 Also, king Ahaz instructed Uriah, the priest, saying: “Upon the great altar, offer the morning holocaust, and the evening sacrifice, and the holocaust of the king, and his sacrifice, and the holocaust of the entire people of the land, and their sacrifices. But their libations, and all the blood of the holocaust, and all the blood of the victim, you shall pour out upon it. Then truly, the altar of brass shall be prepared for use at my will.”	15 Depois ordenou ao sacerdote Urias: Queimarás no grande altar o holocausto da manhã e a oblação da tarde, o holocausto do rei e a sua oblação, o holocausto do povo e a sua oblação, e derramarás sobre ele todo o sangue dos holocaustos e dos sacrifícios. Quanto ao altar de bronze, deliberarei eu depois.
16 And so Uriah, the priest, acted in accord with all that king Ahaz had instructed to him.	16 O sacerdote Urias fez tudo o que lhe ordenara o rei Acaz.
17 Then king Ahaz took away the engraved bases, and the basin that was upon them. And he took down the sea from the bronze oxen, which were holding it up. And he positioned it upon a layer of pavement stone.	17 Além disso, desmontou o rei Acaz os quadros e os pedestais e tirou de cima as bacias; desceu o mar de bronze de cima dos bois de bronze que o suportavam e pô-lo sobre um suporte de pedra.
18 Also, the canopy for the Sabbath, which he had built in the temple, and the exterior entrance of the king, he converted into the temple of the Lord, because of the king of the Assyrians.	18 Tirou também do templo do Senhor, por causa do rei da Assíria, o pórtico do sábado que fora construído no edifício, e a entrada exterior do rei.
19 Now the rest of the words of Ahaz that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?	19 O resto da história de Acaz, seus atos e grandes feitos, tudo se acha consignado no livro das Crônicas dos reis de Judá.
20 And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David. And Hezekiah, his son, reigned in his place.	20 Acaz adormeceu com seus pais e foi sepultado com eles na cidade de Davi. Seu filho Ezequias sucedeu-lhe no trono.
