Joshua 10
1 Now Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had captured Ai and devoted it to destruction —doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king—and that the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living near them.
E quando Adoni-Zedeque rei de Jerusalém ouviu que Josué havia tomado a Ai, e que a haviam assolado, (como havia feito a Jericó e a seu rei, assim fez a Ai e a seu rei; ) e que os moradores de Gibeão fizeram paz com os israelitas, e que estavam entre eles;
2 So Adoni-zedek and his people were greatly alarmed, because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities; it was larger than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
Tiveram muito grande temor; porque Gibeão era uma grande cidade, como uma das cidades reais, e maior que Ai, e todos os seus homens fortes.
3 Therefore Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent word to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying,
Enviou, pois, a dizer Adoni-Zedeque rei de Jerusalém, a Hoão rei de Hebrom, e a Pirã rei de Jeremote, e a Jafia rei de Laquis, e a Debir rei de Eglom:
4 “Come up and help me. We will attack Gibeon, because they have made peace with Joshua and the Israelites.”
Subi a mim, e ajudai-me, e combatamos a Gibeão: porque fez paz com Josué e com os filhos de Israel.
5 So the five kings of the Amorites—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon—joined forces and advanced with all their armies. They camped before Gibeon and made war against it.
E cinco reis dos amorreus, o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebrom, o rei de Jeremote, o rei de Laquis, o rei de Eglom, se juntaram e subiram, eles com todos os seus exércitos, e assentaram acampamento sobre Gibeão, e lutaram contra ela.
6 Then the men of Gibeon sent word to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal: “Do not abandon your servants. Come quickly and save us! Help us, because all the kings of the Amorites from the hill country have joined forces against us.”
E os moradores de Gibeão enviaram a dizer a Josué ao acampamento em Gilgal: Não encolhas tuas mãos de teus servos; sobe prontamente a nós para guardar-nos e ajudar-nos: porque todos os reis dos amorreus que habitam nas montanhas, se juntaram contra nós.
7 So Joshua and his whole army, including all the mighty men of valor, came from Gilgal.
E subiu Josué de Gilgal, ele e todo aquele povo de guerra com ele, e todos os homens valentes.
8 The LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for I have delivered them into your hand. Not one of them shall stand against you.”
E o SENHOR disse a Josué: Não tenhas medo deles: porque eu os entreguei em tua mão, e nenhum deles resistirá diante de ti.
9 After marching all night from Gilgal, Joshua caught them by surprise.
E Josué veio a eles de repente, toda a noite subiu desde Gilgal.
10 And the LORD threw them into confusion before Israel, who defeated them in a great slaughter at Gibeon, pursued them along the ascent to Beth-horon, and struck them down as far as Azekah and Makkedah.
E o SENHOR os perturbou diante de Israel, e feriu-os com grande mortandade em Gibeão: e seguiu-os pelo caminho que sobe a Bete-Horom, e feriu-os até Azeca e Maceda.
11 As they fled before Israel along the descent from Beth-horon to Azekah, the LORD cast down on them large hailstones from the sky, and more of them were killed by the hailstones than by the swords of the Israelites.
E quando iam fugindo dos israelitas, à descida de Bete-Horom, o SENHOR lançou sobre eles do céu grandes pedras até Azeca, e morreram: muitos mais morreram das pedras do granizo, que os que os filhos de Israel haviam matado à espada.
12 On the day that the LORD gave the Amorites over to the Israelites, Joshua spoke to the LORD in the presence of Israel: “O sun, stand still over Gibeon, O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.”
Então Josué falou ao SENHOR o dia que o SENHOR entregou aos amorreus diante dos filhos de Israel, e disse em presença dos israelitas: Sol, detém-te em Gibeão; E tu, Lua, no vale de Aijalom.
13 So the sun stood still and the moon stopped until the nation took vengeance upon its enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? “So the sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.”
E o sol se deteve e a lua se parou, Até tanto que a gente se havia vingado de seus inimigos. Não está este escrito no livro de Jasar? E o sol se parou em meio do céu, e não se apressou a se pôr quase um dia inteiro.
14 There has been no day like it before or since, when the LORD listened to the voice of a man, because the LORD fought for Israel.
E nunca foi tal dia antes nem depois daquele, havendo atendido o SENHOR à voz de um homem: porque o SENHOR lutava por Israel.
15 Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.
E Josué, e todo Israel com ele, voltava-se ao acampamento em Gilgal.
16 Now the five kings had fled and hidden in the cave at Makkedah.
Porém os cinco reis fugiram, e se esconderam em uma cova em Maquedá.
17 And Joshua was informed: “The five kings have been found; they are hiding in the cave at Makkedah.”
E foi dito a Josué que os cinco reis haviam sido achados em uma cova em Maquedá.
18 So Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave, and post men there to guard them.
Então Josué disse: Rolai grandes pedras à boca da cova, e ponde homens junto a ela que os guardem;
19 But you, do not stop there. Pursue your enemies and attack them from behind. Do not let them reach their cities, for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand.”
E vós não vos pareis, mas sim segui a vossos inimigos, e feri-lhes a retaguarda, sem deixar-lhes entrar em suas cidades; porque o SENHOR vosso Deus os entregou em vossa mão.
20 So Joshua and the Israelites continued to inflict a terrible slaughter until they had finished them off, and the remaining survivors retreated to the fortified cities.
E aconteceu que quando Josué e os filhos de Israel acabaram de feri-los com mortandade muito grande, até destruí-los, os que restaram deles se meteram nas cidades fortes.
21 The whole army returned safely to Joshua in the camp at Makkedah, and no one dared to utter a word against the Israelites.
E todo aquele povo se voltou salvo ao acampamento a Josué em Maquedá; que não houve quem movesse sua língua contra os filhos de Israel.
22 Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and bring those five kings out to me.”
Então disse Josué: Abri a boca da cova, e tirai-me dela a estes cinco reis.
23 So they brought the five kings out of the cave—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon.
E fizeram-no assim, e tiraram-lhe da cova aqueles cinco reis: ao rei de Jerusalém, ao rei de Hebrom, ao rei de Jeremote, ao rei de Laquis, ao rei de Eglom.
24 When they had brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned all the men of Israel and said to the army commanders who had accompanied him, “Come here and put your feet on the necks of these kings.” So the commanders came forward and put their feet on their necks.
E quando tiraram estes reis a Josué, chamou Josué a todos os homens de Israel, e disse aos principais da gente de guerra que haviam vindo com ele: Chegai e ponde vossos pés sobre os pescoços destes reis. E eles se aproximaram, e puseram seus pés sobre os pescoços deles.
25 “Do not be afraid or discouraged,” Joshua said. “Be strong and courageous, for the LORD will do this to all the enemies you fight.”
E Josué lhes disse: Não temais, nem vos atemorizeis; sede fortes e valentes: porque assim fará o SENHOR a todos vossos inimigos contra os quais lutai.
26 After this, Joshua struck down and killed the kings, and he hung their bodies on five trees and left them there until evening.
E depois disto Josué os feriu e os matou, e os fez enforcar em cinco madeiros: e restaram enforcados nos madeiros até à tarde.
27 At sunset Joshua ordered that they be taken down from the trees and thrown into the cave in which they had hidden. Then large stones were placed against the mouth of the cave, and the stones are there to this day.
E quando o sol se ia a pôr, mandou Josué que os tirassem dos madeiros, e os lançassem na cova de onde se haviam escondido: e puseram grandes pedras à boca da cova, até hoje.
28 On that day Joshua captured Makkedah and put it to the sword, along with its king. He devoted to destruction everyone in the city, leaving no survivors. So he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
Naquele mesmo dia tomou Josué a Maquedá, e a pôs à espada, e matou a seu rei; a eles e a tudo o que nela tinha vida, sem restar nada: mas ao rei de Maquedá fez como havia feito ao rei de Jericó.
29 Then Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Makkedah to Libnah and fought against Libnah.
E de Maquedá passou Josué, e todo Israel com ele, a Libna; e lutou contra Libna:
30 And the LORD also delivered that city and its king into the hand of Israel, and Joshua put all the people to the sword, leaving no survivors. And he did to the king of Libnah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
E o SENHOR a entregou também a ela, e a seu rei, em mãos de Israel; e feriu-a a fio de espada, com tudo o que nela havia vivo, sem restar nada: mas a seu rei fez da maneira que havia feito ao rei de Jericó.
31 And Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Libnah to Lachish. They laid siege to it and fought against it.
E Josué, e todo Israel com ele, passou de Libna a Laquis, e pôs acampamento contra ela, e combateu-a:
32 And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, and Joshua captured it on the second day. He put all the people to the sword, just as he had done to Libnah.
E o SENHOR entregou a Laquis em mão de Israel, e tomou-a ao dia seguinte, e feriu-a à espada, com tudo o que nela havia vivo, como havia feito em Libna.
33 At that time Horam king of Gezer went to help Lachish, but Joshua struck him down along with his people, leaving no survivors.
Então Horão, rei de Gezer, subiu em ajuda de Laquis; mas a ele e a seu povo feriu Josué, até não restar nenhum deles.
34 So Joshua moved on from Lachish to Eglon, and all Israel with him. They laid siege to it and fought against it.
De Laquis passou Josué, e todo Israel com ele, a Eglom: e puseram acampamento contra ela, e combateram-na:
35 That day they captured Eglon and put it to the sword, and Joshua devoted to destruction everyone in the city, just as he had done to Lachish.
E a tomaram no mesmo dia, e meteram-na à espada; e aquele dia matou a todo o que nela havia vivo, como havia feito em Laquis.
36 Then Joshua and all Israel with him went up from Eglon to Hebron and fought against it.
Subiu logo Josué, e todo Israel com ele, de Eglom a Hebrom, e combateram-na;
37 They captured it and put to the sword its king, all its villages, and all the people. Joshua left no survivors, just as he had done at Eglon; he devoted to destruction Hebron and everyone in it.
E tomando-a, feriram-na à espada, a seu rei e a todas as suas cidades, com tudo o que nela havia vivo, sem restar nada: como fizeram a Eglom, assim a destruíram com tudo o que nela havia vivo.
38 Finally Joshua and all Israel with him turned toward Debir and fought against it.
E voltando-se Josué, e todo Israel com ele, sobre Debir, combateu-a;
39 And they captured Debir, its king, and all its villages. They put them to the sword and devoted to destruction everyone in the city, leaving no survivors. Joshua did to Debir and its king as he had done to Hebron and as he had done to Libnah and its king.
E tomou-a, e a seu rei, e a todas as suas vilas; e feriram-nos à espada, e destruíram tudo o que ali dentro havia vivo, sem restar nada; como havia feito a Hebrom, assim fez a Debir e a seu rei; e como havia feito a Libna e a seu rei.
40 So Joshua conquered the whole region—the hill country, the Negev, the foothills, and the slopes, together with all their kings—leaving no survivors. He devoted to destruction everything that breathed, just as the LORD, the God of Israel, had commanded.
Feriu pois Josué toda a região das montanhas, e do sul, e das planícies, e das costas, e a todos os seus reis, sem restar nada; tudo o que tinha vida matou, ao modo que o SENHOR Deus de Israel o havia mandado.
41 Joshua conquered the area from Kadesh-barnea to Gaza, and the whole region of Goshen as far as Gibeon.
E feriu-os Josué desde Cades-Barneia até Gaza, e toda a terra de Gósen até Gibeão.
42 And because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel, Joshua captured all these kings and their land in one campaign.
Todos estes reis e suas terras tomou Josué de uma vez; porque o SENHOR o Deus de Israel lutava por Israel.
43 Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.
E voltou Josué, e todo Israel com ele, ao acampamento em Gilgal.
