1 Samuel 2
1 And Hannah, in prayer before the Lord, said, My heart is glad in the Lord, my horn is lifted up in the Lord: my mouth is open wide over my haters; because my joy is in your salvation.
Então orou Anna, e disse: O meu coração exulta ao Senhor, o meu poder está exaltado no Senhor: a minha bocca se dilatou sobre os meus inimigos, porquanto me alegro na tua salvação.
2 No other is holy as the Lord, for there is no other God but you: there is no Rock like our God.
Não ha sancto como é o Senhor; porque não ha outro fóra de ti: e rocha nenhuma ha como o nosso Deus.
3 Say no more words of pride; let not uncontrolled sayings come out of your mouths: for the Lord is a God of knowledge, by him acts are judged.
Não multipliqueis palavras de altissimas altivezas, nem saiam coisas arduas da vossa bocca: porque o Senhor é o Deus de conhecimento, e por elle são as obras pesadas na balança.
4 The bows of the men of war are broken, and the feeble are clothed with strength.
O arco dos fortes foi quebrado, e os que tropeçavam foram cingidos de força.
5 Those who were full are offering themselves as servants for bread; those who were in need are at rest; truly, she who had no children has become the mother of seven; and she who had a family is wasted with sorrow.
Os fartos se alugaram por pão, e cessaram os famintos: até a esteril pariu sete filhos, e a que tinha muitos filhos enfraqueceu.
6 The Lord is the giver of death and life: sending men down to the underworld and lifting them up. (Sheol h7585)
O Senhor é o que tira a vida e a dá: faz descer á sepultura e faz tornar a subir d'ella. (Sheol h7585)
7 The Lord gives wealth and takes a man's goods from him: crushing men down and again lifting them up;
O Senhor empobrece e enriquece: abaixa e tambem exalta.
8 Lifting the poor out of the dust, and him who is in need out of the lowest place, to give them their place among rulers, and for their heritage the seat of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord's and he has made them the base of the world.
Levanta o pobre do pó, e desde o esterco exalta o necessitado, para o fazer assentar entre os principes, para os fazer herdar o throno de gloria: porque do Senhor são os alicerces da terra, e assentou sobre elles o mundo.
9 He will keep the feet of his holy ones, but the evil-doers will come to their end in the dark night, for by strength no man will overcome.
Os pés dos seus sanctos guardará, porém os impios ficarão mudos nas trevas: porque o homem não prevalecerá pela força
10 Those who make war against the Lord will be broken; against them he will send his thunder from heaven: the Lord will be judge of the ends of the earth, he will give strength to his king, lifting up the horn of him on whom the holy oil has been put.
Os que contendem com o Senhor serão quebrantados, desde os céus trovejará sobre elles: o Senhor julgará as extremidades da terra: e dará força ao seu rei, e exaltará o poder do seu ungido
11 Then Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child became the servant of the Lord under the direction of Eli the priest.
Então Elcana foi-se a Rama, á sua casa: porém o menino ficou servindo ao Senhor, perante o sacerdote Eli.
12 Now the sons of Eli were evil and good-for-nothing men, having no knowledge of the Lord.
Eram porém os filhos d'Eli filhos de Belial, não conheciam ao Senhor.
13 And the priests' way with the people was this: when any man made an offering, the priest's servant came while the flesh was being cooked, having in his hand a meat-hook with three teeth;
Porquanto o costume d'aquelles sacerdotes com o povo era que, offerecendo alguem algum sacrificio, vinha o moço do sacerdote, estando-se cozendo a carne, com um garfo de tres dentes em sua mão;
14 This he put into the pot, and everything which came up on the hook the priest took for himself. This they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.
E dava com elle na caldeira, ou na panella, ou no caldeirão, ou na marmita; e tudo quanto o garfo tirava, o sacerdote tomava para si: assim faziam a todo o Israel que ia ali a Silo.
15 And more than this, before the fat was burned, the priest's servant would come and say to the man who was making the offering, Give me some of the flesh to be cooked for the priest; he has no taste for meat cooked in water, but would have you give it uncooked.
Tambem antes de queimarem a gordura vinha o moço do sacerdote, e dizia ao homem que sacrificava: Dá essa carne para assar ao sacerdote: porque não tomará de ti carne cozida, senão crua
16 And if the man said to him, First let the fat be burned, then take as much as you will; then the servant would say, No, you are to give it to me now, or I will take it by force.
E, dizendo-lhe o homem: Queimem primeiro a gordura de hoje, e depois toma para ti quanto desejar a tua alma, então elle lhe dizia: Não, agora a has de dar, e, se não, por força a tomarei.
17 And the sin of these young men was very great before the Lord; for they gave no honour to the Lord's offerings.
Era pois muito grande o peccado d'estes mancebos perante o Senhor, porquanto os homens desprezavam a offerta do Senhor.
18 But Samuel did the work of the Lord's house, while he was a child, dressed in a linen ephod.
Porém Samuel ministrava perante o Senhor, sendo ainda mancebo, vestido com um ephod de linho.
19 And his mother made him a little robe and took it to him every year when she came with her husband for the year's offering.
E sua mãe lhe fazia uma tunica pequena, e de anno em anno lh'a trazia, quando com seu marido subia a sacrificar o sacrificio annual.
20 And every year Eli gave Elkanah and his wife a blessing, saying, May the Lord give you offspring by this woman in exchange for the child you have given to the Lord. And they went back to their house.
E Eli abençoava a Elcana e a sua mulher, e dizia: O Senhor te dê semente d'esta mulher, pela petição que fez ao Senhor. E voltaram para o seu logar.
21 And the Lord had mercy on Hannah and she gave birth to three sons and two daughters. And the young Samuel became older before the Lord.
Visitou pois o Senhor a Anna, e concebeu, e pariu tres filhos e duas filhas: e o mancebo Samuel crescia diante do Senhor.
22 Now Eli was very old; and he had news from time to time of what his sons were doing to all Israel.
Era porém Eli já muito velho, e ouvia tudo quanto seus filhos faziam a todo o Israel, e de como se deitavam com as mulheres que em bandos se ajuntavam á porta da tenda da congregação.
23 And he said to them, Why are you doing such things? for from all this people I get accounts of your evil ways.
E disse-lhes: Porque fazeis taes coisas? porque ouço de todo este povo os vossos maleficios.
24 No, my sons, the account which is given me, which the Lord's people are sending about, is not good.
Não, filhos meus, porque não é boa fama esta que ouço: fazeis transgredir o povo do Senhor.
25 If one man does wrong to another, God will be his judge: but if a man's sin is against the Lord, who will take up his cause? But they gave no attention to the voice of their father, for it was the Lord's purpose to send destruction on them.
Peccando homem contra homem, os juizes o julgarão; peccando porém o homem contra o Senhor, quem rogará por elle? Mas não ouviram a voz de seu pae, porque o Senhor os queria matar.
26 And the young Samuel, becoming older, had the approval of the Lord and of men.
E o mancebo Samuel ia crescendo, e fazia-se agradavel, assim para com o Senhor como tambem para com os homens.
27 And a man of God came to Eli and said to him, The Lord says, Did I let myself be seen by your father's people when they were in Egypt, servants in Pharaoh's house?
E veiu um homem de Deus a Eli, e disse-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor. Não me manifestei, na verdade, á casa de teu pae, estando elles ainda no Egypto, na casa de Pharaó?
28 Did I take him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest and to go up to my altar to make the smoke of the offerings go up and to take up the ephod? Did I give to your father's family all the offerings made by fire by the children of Israel?
E m'o escolhi d'entre todas as tribus d'Israel por sacerdote, para offerecer sobre o meu altar, para accender o incenso, e para trazer o ephod perante mim, e dei á casa de teu pae todas as offertas queimadas dos filhos d'Israel.
29 Why then are you looking with envy on my offerings of meat and of meal which were ordered by my word, honouring your sons before me, and making yourselves fat with all the best of the offerings of Israel, my people?
Porque dáes coices contra o sacrificio e contra a minha offerta de manjares, que ordenei na minha morada, e honras a teus filhos mais do que a mim, para vos engordardes do principal de todas as offertas do meu povo d'Israel?
30 For this reason the Lord God of Israel has said, Truly I did say that your family and your father's people would have their place before me for ever: but now the Lord says, Let it not be so; I will give honour to those by whom I am honoured, and those who have no respect for me will be of small value in my eyes.
Portanto, diz o Senhor Deus d'Israel: Na verdade tinha dito eu que a tua casa e a casa de teu pae andariam diante de mim perpetuamente; porém agora diz o Senhor: Longe de mim tal coisa, porque aos que me honram honrarei, porém os que me desprezam serão envilecidos.
31 See, the days are coming when your arm and the arm of your father's people will be cut off;
Eis que veem dias em que cortarei o teu braço e o braço da casa de teu pae, para que não haja mais velho algum em tua casa.
32 And never again will there be an old man in your family.
E verás o aperto da morada de Deus, em logar de todo o bem que houvera de fazer a Israel: nem haverá por todos os dias velho algum em tua casa.
33 But one man of your family will not be cut off by my hand, and his eyes will be made dark, and grief will be in his heart: and all the offspring of your family will come to their end by the sword of men.
O homem porém que eu te não desarraigar do meu altar seria para vos consumir os olhos e para te entristecer a alma: e toda a multidão da tua casa morrerá quando chegar á edade varonil.
34 And this will be the sign to you, which will come on Hophni and Phinehas, your sons; death will overtake them on the same day.
E isto te será por signal, a saber: o que sobrevirá a teus dois filhos, a Hophni e a Phineas, que ambos morrerão no mesmo dia.
35 And I will make a true priest for myself, one who will do what is in my heart and in my mind: and I will make for him a family which will not come to an end; and his place will be before my holy one for ever.
E eu suscitarei para mim um sacerdote fiel, que obrará segundo o meu coração e a minha alma, e eu lhe edificarei uma casa firme, e andará sempre diante do meu ungido.
36 Then it will be that the rest of your family, anyone who has not been cut off, will go down on his knees to him for a bit of silver or a bit of bread, and say, Be pleased to put me into one of the priest's places so that I may have a little food.
E será que todo aquelle que ficar de resto da tua casa virá a inclinar-se diante d'elle por uma moeda de prata e por um bocado de pão, e dirá: Rogo-te que me admittas a algum ministerio sacerdotal, para que possa comer um pedaço de pão.
