16 — 2 Paralipomeni

1And 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.Ma l'anno trentasei del suo regno Baasa re d'Israele entrò nel paese di Giuda, e serrò Rama con muraglie attorno, in maniera che nessuno del regno di Asa poteva o uscirne, o entrarvi.AND in the six and thirteth yeare of his reigne, came vp Baasa the king of Israel into Iuda, and with a wall compassed Rama, that none could safely goe out and come in of the kingdom of Asa.Anno autem trigesimo sexto regni ejus, ascendit Baasa rex Israël in Judam, et muro circumdabat Rama, ut nullus tute posset egredi et ingredi de regno Asa. 2Then 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:Allora Asa cavò fuori l'argento, e l'oro dai tesori della casa del Signore, e dai tesori del re, e lo mandò a Benadad re di Siria, che dimorava in Damasco, e gli fece dire:Asa therfore brought forth siluer and gold, out of the treasures house of our Lord, and of the kinges treasures, and he sent to Benadad the king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:Protulit ergo Asa argentum et aurum de thesauris domus Domini, et de thesauris regis, misitque ad Benadad regem Syriæ, qui habitabat in Damasco, dicens: 3There 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.Noi siamo confederati tu, ed io, e anche il padre mio, e il padre tuo vissero in amistà: per questo ti mando quest'oro, e quest'argento, affinchè, rotta l'alleanza, che tu hai con Baasa re d'Israele, lo costringa a partirsene dal mio paese.There is league betwen me & thee, my father also and thy father had concord, wherfore I haue sent thee siluer and gold, that breaking the league, which thou hast with Baasa the king of Israel, thou make him retire from me.Fœdus inter me et te est; pater quoque meus et pater tuus habuere concordiam: quam ob rem misi tibi argentum et aurum, ut rupto fœdere quod habes cum Baasa rege Israël, facias eum a me recedere. 4And when 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.A tal novella Benadad mandò condottieri de' suoi eserciti contro le città d'Israele, i quali espugnarono Ahion, e Dan, e Abelmaim, e tutte le città murate di Nephthali.Which being knowen, Benadad sent the princes of his hostes to the cities of Israel: who stroke Ahion, and Dan, and Ablemaim, and al the walled cities of Nephthali.Quo comperto, Benadad misit principes exercituum suorum ad urbes Israël: qui percusserunt Ahion, et Dan, et Abelmaim, et universas urbes Nephthali muratas.

5And when Baasa heard of it, he left off the building of Rama, and interrupted his work.Udito ciò Baasa, cessò di fortificare Rama, e lasciò l'opera imperfetta.which when Baasa had heard, he ceased to build Rama, and intermitted his worke.Quod cum audisset Baasa, desiit ædificare Rama, et intermisit opus suum. 6Then 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.E il re Asa prese seco tutta la gente di Giuda, e portaron via da Rama le pietre, e i legnami preparati da Baasa, e con essi fortificò Gabaa, e Maspha.Moreouer Asa the king tooke al Iuda, and caried away the stones out of Rama, and the timber that Baasa had prepared for the building: and he built of them Gabaa, & Maspha.Porro Asa rex assumpsit universum Judam, et tulerunt lapides de Rama, et ligna quæ ædificationi præparaverat Baasa, ædificavitque ex eis Gabaa et Maspha. 7At 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.In quel tempo si presentò ad Asa re di Giuda il profeta Hanani, e gli disse: Perchè tu hai riposta la tua fidanza nel re di Siria, e non nel Signore Dio tuo, per questo è scampato dalle tue mani l'esercito del re di Siria.At that time came Hanani the prophete to Asa the king of Iuda, and sayd to him: Because thou hast had confidence in the king of Syria, and not in our Lord thy God, therfore hath the armie of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hand.In tempore illo venit Hanani propheta ad Asa regem Juda, et dixit ei: Quia habuisti fiduciam in rege Syriæ, et non in Domino Deo tuo, idcirco evasit Syriæ regis exercitus de manu tua. 8Were 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?Non eran eglino in molto maggior numero gli Etiopi, e que' della Libia co' loro cocchi, e soldati a cavallo, e colla loro spaventosa moltitudine? e avendo tu creduto al Signore, egli li diede nelle tue mani.Were not the Aethiopians, and Libyians manie moe in chariotes, and horsemen, and a multitude exceding great: whom, when thou didst beleue in our Lord, he deliuered into thy hand?Nonne Æthiopes et Libyes multo plures erant quadrigis, et equitibus, et multitudine nimia, quos cum Domino credidisses, tradidit in manu tua ?

9For 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.Perocché gli occhi del Signore contemplano tutta la terra, e danno fortezza a quelli, che credono in lui con cuor sincero. Tu adunque hai operato stoltamente; e per questo da ora in poi sorgeranno delle guerre contro di te.For the eies of our Lord behold al the earth, and geue strength to them, that with perfect hart beleue in him. Thou therfore hast done foolyshly, & for this cause from this present time shal battels arise agaynst thee.Oculi enim Domini contemplantur universam terram, et præbent fortitudinem his qui corde perfecto credunt in eum. Stulte igitur egisti, et propter hoc ex præsenti tempore adversum te bella consurgent. 10And 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.Ma Asa si mosse ad ira contro il Profeta, e comandò ch'ei fosse messo alla catena: perchè questa cosa lo avea grandemente irritato: e uccise in quel tempo moltissime persone del popolo.And Asa being angrie agaynst the Seer, commanded him to be cast into fetters: for he tooke indignation excedingly vpon this thing: and he slewe of the people at that time verie manie.Iratusque Asa adversus videntem, jussit eum mitti in nervum: valde quippe super hoc fuerat indignatus: et interfecit de populo in tempore illo plurimos. 11But the works of Asa the first and last are written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.Ma le gesta di Asa dal principio sino alla fine sono scritte nel libro dei re di Giuda, e d'Israele.But the workes of Asa the first & the lasl are writen in the Booke of the kinges of Iuda and Israel.Opera autem Asa prima et novissima scripta sunt in libro regum Juda et Israël. 12And 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.Asa poi cadde malato l'anno trentanove del suo regno di fierissimo dolore di gambe, e neppur nella sua infermità ricorse a Dio; ma confidò piuttosto nel sapere de' medici.Asa also fel sicke in the nine and thirteth yeare of his reigne, of a most vehement payne of his feete, and neither in his infirmitie did he seeke our Lord, but rather trusted in the arte of Phisitians.Ægrotavit etiam Asa anno trigesimo nono regni sui, dolore pedum vehementissimo, et nec in infirmitate sua quæsivit Dominum, sed magis in medicorum arte confisus est.

13And he slept with his fathers: and he died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.E si addormentò co' padri suoi: e morì l'anno quarantesimo primo del suo regno.And he slept with his fathers: and he died the one and fou•teth yeare of his reigne.Dormivitque cum patribus suis, et mortuus est anno quadragesimo primo regni sui. 14And 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.E lo seppellirono nel sepolcro, che egli avea fatto scavare per se nella città di David: e lo posero sul suo letto pieno di aromi, e unguenti delicatissimi manipolati con arte da' profumieri, e li bruciarono con pompa stragrande sopra di lui.And they buried him in his sepulchre, which he had digged for himsels in the Citie of Dauid: and they layd him vpon his bed ful of spices and odoriferous oyntementes, which were made by the arte of apothecaries, and they burnt it ouer him with exceding ambition.Et sepelierunt eum in sepulchro suo quod foderat sibi in civitate David: posueruntque eum super lectum suum plenum aromatibus et unguentibus meretriciis, quæ erant pigmentariorum arte confecta, et combusserunt super eum ambitione nimia.
