Chronicles I 19
1 And it came to pass after this, [that] Naas the king of the children of Ammon died, and Anan his son reigned in his stead.
E aconteceu, depois disto, que Nahas, rei dos filhos de Ammon, morreu: e seu filho reinou em seu lugar.
2 And David said, I will act kindly towards Anan the son of Naas, as his father acted kindly towards me. And David sent messengers to condole with him on the death of his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Anan, to comfort him.
Então disse David: Usarei de beneficência com Hanun, filho de Nahas, porque seu pai usou de beneficência comigo. Pelo que David enviou mensageiros para o consolarem acerca de seu pai. E, vindo os servos de David à terra dos filhos de Ammon, a Hanun, para o consolarem,
3 And the chiefs of the children of Ammon said to Anan, Is it to honour your father before you, that David has sent comforters to you? Have not his servants come to you that they might search the city, and to spy out the land?
Disseram os príncipes dos filhos de Ammon a Hanun: Porventura honra David a teu pai aos teus olhos, porque te mandou consoladores? não vieram seus servos a ti, a esquadrinhar, e a transtornar, e a espiar a terra?
4 And Anan took the servants of David, and shaved them, and cut off the half of their garments as far as their tunic, and sent them away.
Pelo que Hanun tomou os servos de David, e os rapou, e lhes cortou os vestidos no meio até à coxa da perna, e os despediu.
5 And there came men to report to David concerning the men: and he sent to meet them, for they were greatly disgraced: and the king said, Dwell in Jericho until your beards have grown, and return.
E foram-se, e avisaram a David acerca destes homens, e mandou ao encontro deles; porque aqueles homens estavam sobremaneira envergonhados. Disse pois o rei: deixai-vos ficar em Jericó, até que vos torne a crescer a barba, e então tornai.
6 And the children of Ammon saw that the people of David were ashamed, and Anan and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire for themselves chariots and horsemen out of Syria of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria Maacha, and from Sobal.
Vendo pois os filhos de Ammon que se tinham feito odiosos para com David, então enviou Hanun, e os filhos de Ammon, mil talentos de prata, para alugarem para si carros e cavaleiros de Mesopotâmia, e da Síria de Maaca, e de Zoba.
7 And they hired for themselves two and thirty thousand chariots, and the king of Maacha and his people; and they came and encamped before Medaba: and the children of Ammon assembled out of their cities, and came to fight.
E alugaram para si trinta e dois mil carros, e o rei de Maaca e a sua gente, e eles vieram, e se acamparam diante de Medeba: também os filhos de Ammon se ajuntaram das suas cidades, e vieram para a guerra.
8 And David heard, and sent Joab and all the host of mighty men.
O que ouvindo David, enviou Joab e todo o exército dos homens valorosos.
9 And the children of Ammon came forth, and set themselves in array for battle by the gate of the city: and the kings that were come forth encamped by themselves in the plain.
E, saindo os filhos de Ammon, ordenaram a batalha à porta da cidade: porém os reis que vieram se puseram à parte no campo.
10 And Joab saw that they were fronting [him] to fight against him before and behind, and he chose [some] out of all the young men of Israel, and they set themselves in array against the Syrian.
E, vendo Joab que a frente da batalha estava contra ele por diante e por detraz, fez escolha dentre os mais escolhidos de Israel, e os ordenou contra os siros:
11 And the rest of the people he gave into the hand of his brother Abesai, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
E o resto do povo entregou na mão de Abisai, seu irmão; e puseram-se em ordem de batalha contra os filhos de Ammon.
12 And he said, If the Syrian should prevail against me, then shall you deliver me: and if the children of Ammon should prevail against you, then will I deliver you.
E disse: Se os siros forem mais fortes do que eu, tu virás socorrer-me; e, se os filhos de Ammon forem mais fortes do que tu, então eu te socorrerei a ti.
13 Be of good courage, and let us be strong, for our people, and for the cities of our God: and the Lord shall do what [is] good in his eyes.
Esforça-te, e esforcemo-nos pelo nosso povo, e pelas cidades do nosso Deus, e faça o Senhor o que parecer bem aos seus olhos.
14 So Joab and the people that were with him set themselves in battle array against the Syrians, and they fled from them.
Então se chegou Joab, e o povo que tinha consigo, diante dos siros, para a batalha; e fugiram de diante dele.
15 And the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians fled, and they also fled from before Abesai, and from before Joab his brother, and they came to the city: and Joab came to Jerusalem.
Vendo pois os filhos de Ammon que os siros fugiram, também eles fugiram de diante de Abisai, seu irmão, e entraram na cidade: e veio Joab para Jerusalém.
16 And the Syrian saw that Israel had defeated him, and he sent messengers, and they brought out the Syrians from beyond the river; and Sophath the commander-in-chief of the forces of Adraazar [was] before them.
E, vendo os siros que foram derrotados diante de Israel, enviaram mensageiros, e fizeram sair os siros que habitavam da banda de além do rio: e Sophac, capitão do exército de Hadar-ezer, marchava diante deles.
17 And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and crossed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So David set [his army] in array to fight against the Syrians, and they fought against him.
Do que avisado David, ajuntou a todo o Israel, e passou o Jordão, e veio ter com eles, e ordenou contra eles a batalha: e, tendo David ordenado a batalha contra os siros, pelejaram contra ele.
18 And the Syrians fled from before Israel; and David killed of the Syrians seven thousand [riders in] chariots, and forty thousand infantry, and he killed Sophath the commander-in-chief of the forces.
Porém os siros fugiram de diante de Israel, e feriu David, dos siros, sete mil cavalos de carros, e quarenta mil homens de pé: e a Sophac, capitão do exército, matou.
19 And the servants of Adraazar saw that they were defeated before Israel, and they made peace with David and served him: and the Syrians would not any more help the children of Ammon.
Vendo pois os servos d'Hadar-ezer que tinham sido feridos diante de Israel, fizeram paz com David, e o serviram: e os siros nunca mais quizeram socorrer os filhos de Ammon.
