1 O ra, no sétimo ano Jeoiada, cobrando ânimo, tomou consigo em aliança os capitães de cem, Azarias, filho de Jeroão, Ismael, filho de Jeoanã, Azarias, filho de Obede, Maaséias, filho de Adaías, e Elisafaté, filho de Zicri.
And in the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the captains of the hundreds, Azariah the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, and Azariah the son of Obed, and Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri, into covenant with him.
2 E stes percorreram a Judá, ajuntando os levitas de todas as cidades de Judá e os chefes das casas paternas de Israel; e vieram para Jerusalém.
And they went about in Judah and gathered together the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the chief fathers of Israel; and they came to Jerusalem.
3 E toda aquela congregação fez aliança com o rei na casa de Deus. E Jeoiada lhes disse: Eis que reinará o filho do rei, como o Senhor falou a respeito dos filhos de Davi.
And all the congregation made a covenant with the king in the house of God. And he said to them, Behold, the king's son shall reign, as Jehovah has said of the sons of David.
4 I sto é o que haveis de fazer: uma terça parte de vós, isto é, dos sacerdotes e dos levitas que entram no sábado, servirá de porteiros
This is the thing which ye shall do: a third part of you that come in on the sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be keepers of the doors;
5 o utra terça parte estará junto ã casa do rei; e a outra terça parte ã porta do Fundamento; e todo o povo estará nos átrios da casa do Senhor.
and a third part shall be at the king's house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation; and all the people shall be in the courts of the house of Jehovah.
6 N ão entre, porém, ninguém na casa da Senhor, senão os sacerdotes e os levitas que ministram; estes entrarão, porque são santos; mas todo o povo guardará a ordenança do Senhor.
But let none come into the house of Jehovah except the priests and those of the Levites that do the service; they shall go in, for they are holy; but all the people shall keep the watch of Jehovah.
7 E os levitas cercarão o rei de todos os lados, cada um com as suas armas na mão; e qualquer que entrar na casa seja morto; mas acompanhai vós o rei, quando entrar e quando sair.
And the Levites shall encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he that comes into the house shall be put to death; and ye shall be with the king when he comes in and when he goes out.
8 F izeram, pois, os levitas e todo o Judá conforme tudo o que ordenara e sacerdote Jeoiada; e tomou cada um os seus homens, tanto os que haviam de entrar no sábado como os que haviam de sair, pois o sacerdote Jeoiada não despediu as turmas.
And the Levites and all Judah did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they took every man his men, those that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go forth on the sabbath; for Jehoiada the priest did not liberate the divisions.
9 T ambém o sacerdote Jeoiada deu aos capitães de cem as lanças, os paveses e os escudos que tinham pertencido ao rei Davi, os quais estavam na casa de Deus.
And Jehoiada the priest gave to the captains of the hundreds king David's spears and shields and targets, which were in the house of God.
10 E dispôs todo o povo, cada um com as suas armas na mão, desde o lado direito até o lado esquerdo da casa, por entre o altar e a casa, ao redor do rei.
And he set all the people, every man with his javelin in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, toward the altar and the house, by the king round about.
11 E ntão tiraram para fora o filho do rei e, pondo-lhe a coroa e o testemunho, o fizeram rei; e Jeoiada e seus filhos o ungiram, e disseram: Viva o rei!
And they brought forth the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, Long live the king!
12 O uvindo, pois, Atalia a voz de povo que corria e louvava ao rei, veio ao povo na casa do Senhor;
And Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, and she came to the people into the house of Jehovah.
13 e quando olhou, eis que o rei estava junto ã sua coluna, ã entrada, e os capitães e os trombeteiros perto do rei; e todo o povo da terra se alegrava, e tocava trombetas; e também os cantores tocavam instrumentos musicais, e dirigiam os cânticos de louvor. Então Atalia, rasgando os seus vestidos, clamou: Traição! Traição!
And she looked, and behold, the king stood on his dais at the entrance, and the princes and the trumpets were by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets; and the singers with the instruments of music, and such as taught to sing praise. And Athaliah rent her garments, and said, Conspiracy! Conspiracy!
14 N isso o sacerdote Jeoiada trouxe para fora os centuriões que estavam sobre o exército e disse-lhes: Trazei-a por entre as fileiras, e o que a seguir seja morto ã espada. Pois o sacerdote dissera: Não a mateis na casa do Senhor.
And Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of the hundreds that were set over the host, and said to them, Lead her forth without the ranks; and whosoever follows her, let him be slain with the sword; for the priest said, Ye shall not put her to death in the house of Jehovah.
15 E ntão deitaram as mãos nela; e ela foi até a entrada da porta dos cavalos, que dá para a casa do rei, e ali a mataram.
And they made way for her, and she went through the entrance of the horse-gate into the king's house, and they put her to death there.
16 E Jeoiada firmou um pacto entre si e o povo todo e o rei, pelo qual seriam o povo do Senhor.
And Jehoiada made a covenant between himself and all the people and the king, that they should be the people of Jehovah.
17 D epois todo o povo entrou na casa de Baal, e a derrubaram; quebraram os seus altares e as suas imagens, e a Matã, sacerdote de Baal, mataram diante dos altares.
And all the people went into the house of Baal, and broke it down; and they broke his altars and his images in pieces, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18 E Jeoiada dispôs guardas na casa do Senhor, sob a direção dos sacerdotes levíticos a quem Davi designara na casa do Senhor para oferecerem com alegria e com cânticos os holocaustos do Senhor, como está escrito na lei de Moisés, e segundo a ordem de Davi.
And Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of Jehovah under the hand of the priests, the Levites, whom David had set by classes over the house of Jehovah to offer up Jehovah's burnt-offerings, as it is written in the law of Moses,—with rejoicing and with singing according to the directions of David.
19 C olocou porteiros
And he set the doorkeepers at the gates of the house of Jehovah, that no one unclean in anything should enter in.
20 E tomou os centuriões, os nobres, os governadores do povo e todo o povo da terra; e conduziram da casa do Senhor o rei e, passando pela porta superior para a casa do rei, fizeram-no sentar no trono real.
And he took the captains of the hundreds, and the nobles, and the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king from the house of Jehovah; and they came through the upper gate into the king's house, and set the king upon the throne of the kingdom.
21 A ssim todo o povo da terra se alegrou, e a cidade ficou em paz, depois que mataram Atalia ã espada.
And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet; and they had slain Athaliah with the sword.
