Joshua 10
1 Now when it came to the ears of Adoni-zedek, king of Jerusalem, that Joshua had taken Ai, and had given it up to the curse (for as he had done to Jericho and its king, so he had done to Ai and its king); and that the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living among them;
E sucedeu que, ouvindo Adonizedek, rei de Jerusalém, que Josué tomara a Hai, e a tinha destruído totalmente, e fizera a Hai e ao seu rei como tinha feito a Jericó e ao seu rei, e que os moradores de Gibeon fizeram paz com os israelitas, e estavam no meio deles,
2 He was in great fear, because Gibeon was a great town, like one of the king's towns, greater than Ai, and all the men in it were men of war.
Temeram muito: porque Gibeon era uma cidade grande como uma das cidades reais, e ainda maior do que Hai, e todos os seus homens valentes.
3 So Adoni-zedek, king of Jerusalem, sent to Hoham, king of Hebron, and to Piram, king of Jarmuth, and to Japhia, king of Lachish, and to Debir, king of Eglon, saying,
Pelo que Adonizedek, rei de Jerusalém, enviou a Hoham, rei de Hebron, e a Piram, rei de Jarmuth, e a Jafia, rei de Lachis, e a Debir, rei de Eglon, dizendo:
4 Come up to me and give me help, and let us make an attack on Gibeon: for they have made peace with Joshua and the children of Israel.
Subi a mim, e ajudai-me, e firamos a Gibeon: porquanto fez paz com Josué e com os filhos de Israel.
5 So the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, were banded together, and went up with all their armies and took up their position before Gibeon and made war against it.
Então se ajuntaram, e subiram cinco reis dos amorreus, o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebron, o rei de Jarmuth, o rei de Lachis, o rei de Eglon, eles e todos os seus exércitos: e sitiaram a Gibeon e pelejaram contra ela.
6 And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the tent-circle at Gilgal, saying, Be not slow to send help to your servants; come up quickly to our support and keep us safe: for all the kings of the Amorites from the hill-country have come together against us.
Enviaram pois os homens de Gibeon a Josué ao arraial de Gilgal, dizendo: Não retires as tuas mãos de teus servos; sobe apressadamente a nós, e livra-nos, e ajuda-nos, porquanto todos os reis dos amorreus, que habitam na montanha, se ajuntaram contra nós
7 So Joshua went up from Gilgal with all his army and all his men of war.
Então subiu Josué de Gilgal, ele e toda a gente de guerra com ele, e todos os valentes e valorosos.
8 And the Lord said to Joshua, Have no fear of them, for I have given them into your hands; they will all give way before you.
E o Senhor disse a Josué: Não os temas, porque os tenho dado na tua mão: nenhum deles parará diante de ti.
9 So Joshua, having come up from Gilgal all night, made a sudden attack on them.
E Josué lhes sobreveio de repente, porque toda a noite veio subindo desde Gilgal.
10 And the Lord made them full of fear before Israel, and they put great numbers of them to death at Gibeon, and went after them by the way going up to Beth-horon, driving them back to Azekah and Makkedah
E o Senhor os conturbou diante de Israel, e os feriu de grande ferida em Gibeon: e seguiu-os pelo caminho que sobe a Bethoron, e os feriu até Azeka e a Makeda.
11 And in their flight before Israel, on the way down from Beth-horon, the Lord sent down great stones from heaven on them all the way to Azekah, causing their death: those whose death was caused by the stones were more than those whom the children of Israel put to death with the sword.
E sucedeu que, fugindo eles diante de Israel, à descida de Bethoron, o Senhor lançou sobre eles, do céu, grandes pedras até Azeka, e morreram: e foram muitos mais os que morreram das pedras da saraiva do que os que os filhos de Israel mataram à espada.
12 It was on the day when the Lord gave up the Amorites into the hands of the children of Israel that Joshua said to the Lord, before the eyes of Israel, Sun, be at rest over Gibeon; and you, O moon, in the valley of Aijalon.
Então Josué falou ao Senhor, no dia em que o Senhor deu os amorreus na mão dos filhos de Israel, e disse aos olhos dos israelitas: Sol, detem-te em Gibeon, e tu, lua, no vale de Ajalon.
13 And the sun was at rest and the moon kept its place till the nation had given punishment to their attackers. (Is it not recorded in the book of Jashar?) So the sun kept its place in the middle of the heavens, and was waiting, and did not go down, for the space of a day.
E o sol se deteve, e a lua parou, até que o povo se vingou de seus inimigos. Isto não está escrito no livro do reto? O sol pois se deteve no meio do céu, e não se apressou a pôr-se, quase um dia inteiro.
14 And there was no day like that, before it or after it, when the Lord gave ear to the voice of a man; for the Lord was fighting for Israel.
E não houve dia semelhante a este, nem antes nem depois dele, ouvindo o Senhor assim a voz dum homem: porque o Senhor pelejava por Israel.
15 And Joshua, with all Israel, went back to the tent-circle at Gilgal.
E tornou-se Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, ao arraial a Gilgal.
16 But these five kings went in flight secretly to a hole in the rock at Makkedah.
Aqueles cinco reis, porém, fugiram, e se esconderam numa cova em Makeda.
17 And word was given to Joshua that the five kings had been taken in a hole in the rock at Makkedah.
E foi anunciado a Josué, dizendo: Acharam-se os cinco reis escondidos numa cova em Makeda.
18 And Joshua said, Let great stones be rolled against the mouth of the hole, and let men keep watch by it:
Disse pois Josué: arrojai grandes pedras à boca da cova, e ponde sobre ela homens que os guardem:
19 But do you, without waiting, go after their army, attacking them from the back; do not let them get into their towns, for the Lord your God has given them into your hands.
Porém vos não vos detenhais; segui os vossos inimigos, e feri os que ficaram atráz: não os deixeis entrar nas suas cidades, porque o Senhor vosso Deus já vo-los deu na vossa mão
20 Now when Joshua and the children of Israel had come to the end of their war of complete destruction, and had put to death all but a small band who had got safely into the walled towns,
E sucedeu que, acabando Josué e os filhos de Israel de os ferir a grande ferida, até consumi-los, e que os que ficaram deles se retiraram às cidades fortes,
21 All the people went back to Joshua to the tent-circle at Makkedah in peace: and no one said a word against the children of Israel.
Todo o povo se tornou em paz a Josué, ao arraial em Makeda: não havendo ninguém que movesse a sua língua contra os filhos de Israel.
22 Then Joshua said, Take away the stones from the mouth of the hole in the rock, and make those five kings come out to me.
Depois disse Josué: Abri a boca da cova, e trazei-me aqueles cinco reis para fora da cova.
23 And they did so, and made those five kings come out of the hole to him, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
Fizeram pois assim, e trouxeram-lhe aqueles cinco reis para fora da cova: o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebron, o rei de Jarmuth, o rei de Lachis, e o rei de Eglon.
24 And when they had made those kings come out to Joshua, Joshua sent for all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who had gone with him, Come near and put your feet on the necks of these kings. So they came near and put their feet on their necks.
E sucedeu que, trazendo aqueles reis a Josué, Josué chamou todos os homens de Israel, e disse aos capitães da gente de guerra, que com ele foram: chegai, ponde os vossos pés sobre os pescoços destes reis. E chegaram, e puseram os seus pés sobre os seus pescoços.
25 And Joshua said to them, Have no fear and do not be troubled; be strong and take heart: for so will the Lord do to all against whom you make war.
Então Josué lhes disse: Não temais, nem vos espanteis: esforçai-vos e animae-vos; porque assim o fará o Senhor a todos os vossos inimigos, contra os quais pelejardes.
26 Then Joshua had them put to death, hanging them on five trees, where they were till evening.
E, depois disto, Josué os feriu e os matou, e os enforcou em cinco madeiros: e ficaram enforcados nos madeiros até à tarde.
27 And when the sun went down, they were taken down from the trees, by Joshua's orders, and put into the hole where they had gone to be safe; and great stones were placed at the mouth of the hole, where they are to this day.
E sucedeu que, ao tempo do pôr do sol, deu Josué ordem que os tirassem dos madeiros: e lançaram-nos na cova onde se esconderam: e puseram grandes pedras à boca da cova, que ainda ali estão até ao mesmo dia de hoje.
28 That day Joshua took Makkedah, and put it and its king to the sword; every soul in it he gave up to the curse without mercy: and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
E naquele mesmo dia tomou Josué a Makeda, e feriu-a a fio de espada, e destruiu o seu rei, a eles, e a toda a alma que nela havia; nada deixou de resto: e fez ao rei de Makeda como fizera ao rei de Jericó.
29 Then Joshua and all Israel with him went on from Makkedah and came to Libnah, and made an attack on it;
Então Josué e todo o Israel com ele passou de Makeda a Libna, e pelejou contra Libna;
30 And again the Lord gave it and its king into the hands of Israel; and he put it and every person in it to the sword, till their destruction was complete; and he did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.
E também o Senhor a deu na mão de Israel, a ela e a seu rei, e a feriu a fio de espada, a ela e a toda a alma que nela havia; nada deixou de resto: e fez ao seu rei como fizera ao rei de Jericó.
31 Then Joshua and all Israel with him went on from Libnah to Lachish, and took up their position against it and made an attack on it,
Então Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, passou de Libna a Lachis: e a sitiou, e pelejou contra ela;
32 And the Lord gave Lachish into the hands of Israel, and on the second day he took it, putting it and every person in it to the sword without mercy, as he had done to Libnah.
E o Senhor deu a Lachis na mão de Israel, e tomou-a no dia seguinte, e a feriu a fio de espada, a ela, e a toda a alma que nela havia, conforme a tudo o que fizera a Libna.
33 Then Horam, king of Gezer, came up to the help of Lachish; and Joshua overcame him and his people, putting all of them to death.
Então Horan, rei de Gezer, subiu a ajudar a Lachis: porém Josué o feriu, a ele e ao seu povo, até que nenhum lhe deixou de resto.
34 And Joshua and all Israel with him went on from Lachish to Eglon: and they took up their position against it and made an attack on it;
E Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, passou de Lachis a Eglon: e a sitiaram, e pelejaram contra ela:
35 And that day they took it, putting it and every person in it to the sword, as he had done to Lachish.
E no mesmo dia a tomaram, e a feriram a fio de espada; e a toda a alma, que nela havia, destruiu totalmente no mesmo dia: conforme a tudo o que fizera a Lachis.
36 And Joshua and all Israel with him went up from Eglon to Hebron, and made an attack on it;
Depois Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, subiu de Eglon a Hebron, e pelejaram contra ela;
37 And took it, overcoming it and putting it and its king and its towns and every person in it to the sword: as he had done to Eglon, he put them all to death, and gave it up to the curse with every person in it.
E a tomaram, e a feriram ao fio de espada, assim ao seu rei como a todas as suas cidades; e a toda a alma, que nelas havia, a ninguém deixou com vida, conforme a tudo o que fizera a Eglon: e a destruiu totalmente, a ela e a toda a alma que nela havia.
38 And Joshua and all Israel with him went on to make an attack on Debir;
Então Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, tornou a Debir, e pelejou contra ela;
39 And he took it, with its king and all its towns: and he put them to the sword, giving every person in it to the curse; all were put to death: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir and its king.
E tomou-a com o seu rei, e a todas as suas cidades, e as feriram a fio de espada, e a toda a alma que nelas havia destruiram totalmente, nada deixou de resto: como fizera a Hebron, assim fez a Debir e ao seu rei, e como fizera a Libna e ao seu rei.
40 So Joshua overcame all the land, the hill-country and the South and the lowland and the mountain slopes, and all their kings; all were put to death: and every living thing he gave up to the curse, as the Lord, the God of Israel, had given him orders.
Assim feriu Josué toda aquela terra, as montanhas, o sul, e as campinas, e as descidas das águas, e a todos os seus reis; nada deixou de resto: mas tudo o que tinha fôlego destruiu, como ordenara o Senhor Deus de Israel.
41 Joshua overcame them from Kadesh-barnea to Gaza, and all the land of Goshen as far as Gibeon.
E Josué os feriu desde Cades-barnea, e até Gaza: como também toda a terra de Gosen, e até Gibeon.
42 And all these kings and their land Joshua took at the same time, because the Lord, the God of Israel, was fighting for Israel.
E de uma vez tomou Josué todos estes reis, e as suas terras: porquanto o Senhor Deus de Israel pelejava por Israel.
43 Then Joshua and all Israel with him went back to their tents at Gilgal.
Então Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, se tornou ao arraial em Gilgal.
