1 Reis 15 - Bíblia Online

Ora, no décimo oitavo ano do rei Jeroboão, filho de Nebate, começou Abião a reinar sobre Judá. 
Reinou três anos em Jerusalém. Sua mãe chamava-se Maaca, filha de Absalão. 
Andou em todos os pecados que seu pai tinha cometido antes dele: o seu coração não era perfeito para com Jeová seu Deus, como o fora o coração de seu pai Davi. 
Todavia em atenção a Davi deu-lhe Jeová uma lâmpada em Jerusalém, suscitando a seu filho depois dele, e dando estabilidade a Jerusalém; 
porque Davi fez o que era reto aos olhos de Jeová, e em nada se afastou de tudo o que lhe ordenou em todos os dias da sua vida, exceto no que se passou a respeito de Urias heteu. 
Houve sempre guerra entre Roboão e Jeroboão. 
O restante dos atos de Abião, e tudo o que ele fez, não estão, porventura, escritos no livro das crônicas dos reis de Judá? Houve guerra entre Abião e Jeroboão. 
Adormeceu Abião com seus pais, e sepultaram-no na cidade de Davi. Em seu lugar reinou seu filho Asa. 
No vigésimo ano de Jeroboão, rei de Israel, começou Asa a reinar sobre Judá. 
Reinou quarenta e um anos em Jerusalém. Sua mãe chamava-se Maaca, filha de Absalão. 
Asa fez o que era reto aos olhos de Jeová, como o fizera Davi, seu pai. 
Tirou da terra os sodomitas, e removeu todos os ídolos que seus pais tinham feito. 
Também a Maaca, sua mãe a removeu, para não ser ela rainha-mãe, porque tinha feito uma imagem horrível para servir de Asera; Asa cortou essa imagem que ela tinha feito, e a queimou junto à torrente de Cedrom. 
Os altos, porém, não foram tirados, todavia o coração de Asa foi perfeito todos os seus dias para com Jeová. 
Meteu na casa de Jeová as cousas que seu pai tinha dedicado, e as que ele mesmo tinha dedicado, prata e ouro e vasos. 
Houve sempre guerra entre Asa e Baasa, rei de Israel. 
Pois Baasa, rei de Israel, subiu contra Judá, e edificou a Ramá, para que não deixasse sair alguém dos territórios de Asa, rei de Judá, nem neles entrar. 
Então tomou Asa toda a prata e ouro, que ficaram nos tesouros da casa de Jeová, e os tesouros da casa do rei, e os entregou nas mãos dos seus servos. O rei Asa enviou-os a Ben-Hadade, filho de Tabirimom, filho de Heziom, rei da Síria, que habitava em Damasco, dizendo: 
Haja aliança entre mim e ti, como houve entre meu pai e teu pai. Eis que te envio um presente de prata e de ouro; vai e quebra a tua aliança com Baasa, rei de Israel, para que ele se retire de mim. 
Ben-Hadade deu ouvidos ao rei Asa, e enviou os generais dos seus exércitos contra as cidades de Israel, e feriu a Ijom, a Dã, a Abel-Bete-Maaca e todo o distrito de Quinerete, juntamente com toda a terra de Naftali. 
O que tendo Baasa ouvido, deixou de edificar a Ramá, e habitou em Tirza. 
O rei Asa convocou a todo o Judá, sem excetuar ninguém. Levaram as pedras de Ramá, e as suas madeiras, que Baasa havia empregado em a edificar, e com elas edificou o rei Asa a Geba de Benjamim e a Mispa. 
Ora o restante de todos os atos de Asa, e todo o seu poder, e tudo o que ele fez, e as cidades que edificou, não estão, porventura, escritos no livro das crônicas dos reis de Judá? Porém no tempo da sua velhice padeceu dos pés. 
Asa adormeceu com seus pais, e foi sepultado com eles na cidade de Davi, seu pai. Em seu lugar reinou seu filho Josafá. 
Nadabe, filho de Jeroboão, começou a reinar sobre Israel no segundo ano de Asa, rei de Judá: e reinou sobre Israel dois anos. 
Fez o mal à vista de Jeová, e andou nos caminhos de seu pai, e no pecado que seu pai tinha feito Israel cometer. 
Conspirou contra ele Baasa, filho de Aías, da casa de Issacar, e feriu-o em Gibetom, que pertencia aos filisteus. Nadabe e todo o Israel sitiavam a Gibetom. 
Baasa matou a Nadabe no terceiro ano de Asa, rei de Judá, e reinou em lugar dele. 
Tanto que começou a reinar, matou a toda a casa de Jeroboão (não lhe deixou ninguém com vida, exterminando-o, conforme a palavra que Jeová falou por intermédio do seu servo Aías silonita), 
por causa dos pecados que Jeroboão cometera, e pelos que fizera Israel cometer, por causa da provocação com que irritara a Jeová, Deus de Israel. 
Ora, o restante dos atos de Nadabe, e tudo o que ele fez, não estão, porventura, escritos no livro das crônicas dos reis de Israel? 
Houve sempre guerra entre Asa e Baasa, rei de Israel. 
No terceiro ano de Asa, rei de Judá, começou Baasa, filho de Aías, a reinar sobre todo o Israel em Tirza, e reinou vinte e quatro anos. 
Ele fez o mal à vista de Jeová, e andou no caminho de Jeroboão, e no pecado que ele tinha feito Israel cometer. 

Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, Abijam became king over Judah. 
For three years he was king in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom. 
And he did the same sins which his father had done before him: his heart was not completely true to the Lord his God, like the heart of David his father. 
But because of David, the Lord gave him a light in Jerusalem, making his sons king after him, so that Jerusalem might be safe; 
Because David did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, and never in all his life went against his orders, but only in the question of Uriah the Hittite. 
... 
Now the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam. 
Then Abijam went to rest with his fathers, and they put him into the earth in the town of David: and Asa his son became king in his place. 
In the twentieth year that Jeroboam was king of Israel, Asa became king over Judah. 
And he was king for forty-one years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom. 
Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as David his father did. 
Those used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods he sent out of the country, and he took away all the images which his fathers had made. 
And he would not let Maacah his mother be queen, because she had made a disgusting image for Asherah; and Asa had the image cut down and burned by the stream Kidron. 
The high places, however, were not taken away: but still the heart of Asa was true to the Lord all his life. 
He took into the house of the Lord all the things which his father had made holy, and those which he himself had made holy, silver and gold and vessels. 
Now there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days. 
And Baasha, king of Israel, went up against Judah, building Ramah, so that no one was able to go out or in to Asa, king of Judah. 
Then Asa took all the silver and gold which was still stored in the Lord's house, and in the king's house, and sent them, in the care of his servants, to Ben-hadad, son of Tabrimmon, son of Rezon, king of Aram, at Damascus, saying, 
Let there be an agreement between me and you as there was between my father and your father: see, I have sent you an offering of silver and gold; go and put an end to your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he may give up attacking me. 
So Ben-hadad did as King Asa said, and sent the captains of his armies against the towns of Israel, attacking Ijon and Dan and Abel-beth-maacah, and all Chinneroth as far as all the land of Naphtali. 
And Baasha, hearing of it, put a stop to the building of Ramah, and was living in Tirzah. 
Then King Asa got all Judah together, making every man come; and they took away the stones and the wood with which Baasha was building Ramah, and King Asa made use of them for building Geba in the land of Benjamin, and Mizpah. 
Now the rest of the acts of Asa, and his power, and all he did, and the towns of which he was the builder, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? But when he was old he had a disease of the feet. 
So Asa went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Jehoshaphat his son became king in his place. 
Nadab, the son of Jeroboam, became king over Israel in the second year that Asa was king of Judah; and he was king of Israel for two years. 
He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, copying the evil ways of his father, and the sin which he did and made Israel do. 
And Baasha, the son of Ahijah, of the family of Issachar, made a secret design against him, attacking him at Gibbethon, a town of the Philistines; for Nadab and the armies of Israel were making war on Gibbethon. 
In the third year of the rule of Asa, king of Judah, Baasha put him to death, and became king in his place. 
And straight away when he became king, he sent destruction on all the offspring of Jeroboam; there was not one living person of all the family of Jeroboam whom he did not put to death, so the word of the Lord, which he said by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite, came about; 
Because of the sins which Jeroboam did and made Israel do, moving the Lord, the God of Israel, to wrath. 
Now the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel? 
And there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days. 
In the third year of the rule of Asa, king of Judah, Baasha, the son of Ahijah, became king over all Israel in Tirzah, and was king for twenty-four years. 
He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, copying the evil ways of Jeroboam and the sin which he made Israel do.
