Os últimos anos de Asa
(1 Rs 15.16-24)
16 No ano 36 do reinado de Asa, o rei Bacha de Israel declarou-lhe guerra e construiu a fortaleza de Ramá, a fim de poder controlar a estrada de acesso a Judá.
2 A resposta de Asa foi pegar no ouro e na prata do templo e do palácio e enviá-los ao rei Ben-Hadade de Aram, em Damasco, com esta mensagem: 3 “Vamos renovar a aliança que existia entre o teu pai e o meu. Mando-te prata e ouro para te convencer a quebrares a aliança com Bacha, rei de Israel, para que me deixe tranquilo.”
4 Ben-Hadade aceitou a proposta de Asa e mobilizou o seu exército com o fim de atacar Israel. Destruiu Ijom, Dan, Abel-Maim e todos os centros de reabastecimento em Naftali. 5 Ouvindo o que acontecera, Bacha suspendeu os trabalhos que estava a fazer na fortaleza de Ramá. 6 O rei Asa e o povo de Judá foram a Ramá, carregaram as pedras e a madeira da construção e usaram-nas para construir Geba e Mizpá.
7 Por essa altura, veio ter com Asa o profeta Hanani que lhe disse: “Visto que puseste a tua confiança no rei de Aram e não no Senhor, teu Deus, o exército do rei de Aram escapou da tua mão. 8 Não te lembras do que aconteceu ao imenso exército de cuchitas e líbios, com todos os seus carros e cavaleiros? Nesse tempo, confiaste no Senhor e ele entregou-os a todos nas tuas mãos. 9 Porque os olhos do Senhor passam por toda a Terra, procurando aqueles cujo coração é reto diante dele, para lhes mostrar o seu poder e o seu socorro. Procedeste loucamente! Daqui em diante haverá guerras contra ti.”
10 Asa ficou tão zangado com o profeta, por ter dito estas coisas, que o pôs na masmorra. A partir dessa altura, Asa começou a oprimir duramente alguns do povo.
11 O resto dos feitos de Asa está escrito no Livro dos Reis de Israel e de Judá. 12 No ano 39 do seu reinado, Asa ficou gravemente doente dos pés, mas nem mesmo assim procurou a ajuda do Senhor; confiou apenas nos médicos. 13 Faleceu no ano 41 do seu reinado. 14 Foi sepultado no túmulo que mandara construir para si na Cidade de David. Foi colocado numa cama cheia de especiarias e de óleos perfumados e o povo fez-lhe um enterro durante o qual se queimou muito incenso.

Asa e o rei da Síria pelejam contra Baasa
16 No ano trigésimo sexto do reinado de Asa, Baasa, rei de Israel, subiu contra Judá e edificou a Ramá, para ninguém deixar sair, nem entrar a Asa, rei de Judá. 2 Então, tirou Asa a prata e o ouro dos tesouros da Casa do Senhor e da casa do rei; e enviou a Ben-Hadade, rei da Síria, que habitava em Damasco, dizendo: 3 Aliança há entre mim e ti, como houve entre o meu pai e o teu; eis que te envio prata e ouro; vai, pois, e aniquila a tua aliança com Baasa, rei de Israel, para que se retire de sobre mim. 4 E Ben-Hadade deu ouvidos ao rei Asa e enviou os capitães dos exércitos que tinha contra as cidades de Israel, e feriram a Ijom, e a Dã, e a Abel-Maim, e a todas as cidades das munições de Naftali. 5 E sucedeu que, ouvindo-o Baasa, deixou de edificar a Ramá e não continuou a sua obra. 6 Então, o rei Asa tomou a todo o Judá, e eles levaram as pedras de Ramá e a sua madeira com que Baasa edificara; e edificou com isto a Geba e a Mispa.
7 Naquele mesmo tempo, veio Hanani, o vidente, a Asa, rei de Judá, e disse-lhe: Porque confiaste no rei da Síria e não confiaste no Senhor, teu Deus, o exército do rei da Síria escapou das tuas mãos. 8 Porventura, não foram os etíopes e os líbios um grande exército, com muitíssimos carros e cavaleiros? Confiando tu, porém, no Senhor, ele os entregou nas tuas mãos. 9 Porque, quanto ao Senhor, seus olhos passam por toda a terra, para mostrar-se forte para com aqueles cujo coração é perfeito para com ele; nisso, pois, procedeste loucamente, porque, desde agora, haverá guerras contra ti. 10 Porém Asa se indignou contra o vidente e lançou-o na casa do tronco, porque disso grandemente se alterou contra ele; também Asa, no mesmo tempo, oprimiu alguns do povo.
11 E eis que os atos de Asa, tanto os primeiros como os últimos, estão escritos no livro da história dos reis de Judá e Israel. 12 E caiu Asa doente de seus pés no ano trigésimo nono do seu reinado; grande por extremo era a sua enfermidade, e, contudo, na sua enfermidade, não buscou ao Senhor, mas, antes, aos médicos. 13 E Asa dormiu com seus pais e morreu no ano quarenta e um do seu reinado. 14 E o sepultaram no seu sepulcro que tinha cavado para si na Cidade de Davi, havendo-o deitado na cama, que se enchera de cheiros e especiarias preparadas segundo a arte dos perfumistas; e fizeram-lhe queima mui grande.

Asa Wars against Baasha
16 In the thirty-sixth year of Asa’s reign, (A)Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah and [a]fortified Ramah in order to prevent anyone from going out or coming in to Asa king of Judah. 2 Then Asa brought out silver and gold from the treasuries of the house of the Lord and the king’s house, and sent it to Ben-hadad king of Aram, who lived in Damascus, saying, 3 “A treaty must be made between [b]you and me, as there was between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent you silver and gold; go, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel so that he will withdraw from me.” 4 And Ben-hadad listened to King Asa, and he sent the commanders of his armies against the cities of Israel, and they [c]conquered Ijon, Dan, Abel-maim, and all (B)the [d]storage cities of Naphtali. 5 When Baasha heard about it, he stopped [e]fortifying Ramah and put an end to his work. 6 Then King Asa brought all Judah, and they carried away the stones of Ramah and its timber with which Baasha had been building, and with it he [f]fortified Geba and Mizpah.
Asa Imprisons the Prophet
7 At that time (C)Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah and said to him, “(D)Because you have relied on the king of Aram and have not relied on the Lord your God, for that reason the army of the king of Aram has escaped from your hand. 8 Were not (E)the Ethiopians and the Lubim (F)an immense army with very many chariots and horsemen? Yet (G)because you relied on the Lord, He handed them over to you. 9 For (H)the eyes of the Lord roam throughout the earth, so that He may strongly support those (I)whose heart is completely His. You have acted foolishly in this. Indeed, from now on you will have wars.” 10 Then Asa was angry with the seer and put him in [g]prison, for he was enraged at him for this. And Asa mistreated some of the people at the same time.
11 (J)Now, the acts of Asa from the first to the last, behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel. 12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign Asa became diseased in his feet. His disease was severe, yet even in his disease he (K)did not seek the Lord, but the physicians. 13 So Asa [h]lay down with his fathers, and died in the forty-first year of his reign. 14 They buried him in his own tomb which he had cut out for himself in the city of David, and they laid him in the resting place which he had filled (L)with spices of various kinds blended by the perfumers’ art; and (M)they made a very great fire for him.

Asa’s Last Years(A)(B)
16 In the thirty-sixth year of Asa’s reign Baasha(C) king of Israel went up against Judah and fortified Ramah to prevent anyone from leaving or entering the territory of Asa king of Judah.
2 Asa then took the silver and gold out of the treasuries of the Lord’s temple and of his own palace and sent it to Ben-Hadad king of Aram, who was ruling in Damascus.(D) 3 “Let there be a treaty(E) between me and you,” he said, “as there was between my father and your father. See, I am sending you silver and gold. Now break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel so he will withdraw from me.”
4 Ben-Hadad agreed with King Asa and sent the commanders of his forces against the towns of Israel. They conquered Ijon, Dan, Abel Maim[a] and all the store cities of Naphtali.(F) 5 When Baasha heard this, he stopped building Ramah and abandoned his work. 6 Then King Asa brought all the men of Judah, and they carried away from Ramah the stones and timber Baasha had been using. With them he built up Geba and Mizpah.(G)
7 At that time Hanani(H) the seer came to Asa king of Judah and said to him: “Because you relied(I) on the king of Aram and not on the Lord your God, the army of the king of Aram has escaped from your hand. 8 Were not the Cushites[b](J) and Libyans a mighty army with great numbers(K) of chariots and horsemen[c]? Yet when you relied on the Lord, he delivered(L) them into your hand. 9 For the eyes(M) of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. You have done a foolish(N) thing, and from now on you will be at war.(O)”
10 Asa was angry with the seer because of this; he was so enraged that he put him in prison.(P) At the same time Asa brutally oppressed some of the people.
11 The events of Asa’s reign, from beginning to end, are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel. 12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign Asa was afflicted(Q) with a disease in his feet. Though his disease was severe, even in his illness he did not seek(R) help from the Lord,(S) but only from the physicians. 13 Then in the forty-first year of his reign Asa died and rested with his ancestors. 14 They buried him in the tomb that he had cut out for himself(T) in the City of David. They laid him on a bier covered with spices and various blended perfumes,(U) and they made a huge fire(V) in his honor.
