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.
Depois destas coisas, aconteceu que morreu Naás, rei dos filhos de Amom, 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.
E disse Davi: Farei misericórdia com Hanã filho de Naás, porque também seu pai fez comigo misericórdia. Assim Davi enviou embaixadores que o consolassem da morte de seu pai. Mas vindos os servos de Davi na terra dos filhos de Amom a Hanã,
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?
os príncipes dos filhos de Amom disseram a Hanã: Pensas que Davi está honrando o teu pai, de maneira que te enviou consoladores? Acaso não é que os servos dele vêm a ti para espionar, e investigar, e reconhecer 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.
Então Hanã tomou os servos de Davi, rapou-os, e cortou-lhes as vestes ao meio, até as nádegas, e despachou-os.
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.
Foram-se, pois, e quando foi dada a Davi a notícia acerca daqueles homens, ele mandou que fossem ao encontro deles, porque estavam muito afrontados. E o rei mandou-lhes dizer: Ficai em Jericó até que vos cresça a barba, e então voltareis.
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.
E quando os filhos de Amom viram que se haviam feito Davi ter ódio deles, Hanã e os filhos de Amom enviaram mil talentos de prata, para alugarem carruragens e cavaleiros da Mesopotâmia, da Síria de Maaca, e de Zobá.
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 trinta e dois mil carruagens, e ao rei de Maaca com o seu povo, os quais vieram e assentaram seu acampamento diante de Medeba. E juntaram-se também os filhos de Amom de suas cidades, e vieram à guerra.
8 And David heard, and sent Joab and all the host of mighty men.
Ouvindo-o Davi, enviou a Joabe com todo o exército dos homens valentes.
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 os filhos de Amom saíram, e ordenaram sua tropa à entrada da cidade; e os reis que haviam vindo, estavam à parte no acampamento.
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 Joabe que a linha da batalha estava contra ele pela frente e por trás, escolheu de todos os mais capacitados que havia em Israel, e pôs seu esquadrão em formação contra os sírios.
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.
Depois pôs os outros nas mãos de seu irmão Abisai, que os pôes em formação de batalha contra os amonitas.
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 sírios forem mais fortes que eu, tu me socorrerás; e se os amonitas forem mais fortes que tu, eu te socorrerei.
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 sejamos corajosos por nosso povo, e pelas cidades de nosso Deus; e faça o SENHOR o que bem lhe parecer.
14 So Joab and the people that were with him set themselves in battle array against the Syrians, and they fled from them.
Aproximou-se, então, Joabe e o povo que tinha consigo, para lutar contra os sírios; mas eles fugiram 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.
E os filhos de Amom, vendo que os sírios haviam fugido, fugiram também eles diante de Abisai seu irmão, e entraram-se na cidade. Então Joabe se voltou a 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 sírios que haviam caído diante de Israel, enviaram embaixadores, e trouxeram aos sírios que estavam da outra parte do rio, cujo capitão era Sofaque, general do exército de Hadadezer.
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.
Logo que foi dado aviso a Davi, juntou a todo Israel, e passando o Jordão veio a eles, e ordenou contra eles seu exército. E como Davi havia ordenado sua tropa contra eles, os sírios lutaram com 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.
Mas os sírios fugiram diante de Israel; e Davi matou dos sírios sete mil homens das carruagens, e quarenta mil homens a pé; assim matou Sofaque, general do exército.
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.
E vendo os sírios de Hadadezer que haviam caído diante de Israel, concordarem em fazer a paz com Davi, e foram seus servos; e nunca mais os sírios quiseram ajudar os filhos de Amom.
