Kings I 14
1 And when a certain day arrived, Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man that bore his armour, Come, and let us go over to Messab of the Philistines that is on the other side yonder; but he told not his father.
E um dia aconteceu, que Jônatas filho de Saul disse a seu criado que lhe trazia as armas: Vem, e passemos à guarnição dos filisteus, que está a aquele lado. E não o fez saber a seu pai.
2 And Saul sat on the top of the hill under the pomegranate tree that is in Magdon, and there were with him about six hundred men.
E Saul estava no termo de Gibeá, debaixo de uma romãzeira que há em Migrom, e o povo que estava com ele era como seiscentos homens.
3 And Achia son of Achitob, the brother of Jochabed the son of Phinees, the son of Heli, [was] the priest of God in Selom wearing an ephod: and the people knew not that Jonathan was gone.
E Aías filho de Aitube, irmão de Icabode, filho de Fineias, filho de Eli, sacerdote do SENHOR em Siló, levava o éfode; e não sabia o povo que Jônatas se houvesse ido.
4 And in the midst of the passage whereby Jonathan sought to pass over to the encampment of the Philistines, there was both a sharp rock on this side, and a sharp rock on the other side: the name of the one [was] Bases, and the name of the other Senna.
E entre os desfiladeiros por de onde Jônatas procurava passar à guarnição dos filisteus, havia um penhasco agudo da uma parte, e outro da outra parte; o um se chamava Bozez e o outro Sené:
5 The one way [was] northward to one coming to Machmas, and the other way [was] southward to one coming to Gabae.
O um penhasco situado ao norte até Micmás, e o outro ao sul até Gibeá.
6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour, Come, let us go over to Messab of these uncircumcised, if [perhaps] the Lord may do something for us; for the Lord is not straitened to save by many or by few.
Disse, pois, Jônatas a seu criado que lhe trazia as armas: Vem, passemos à guarnição destes incircuncisos: talvez fará o SENHOR por nós; que não é difícil ao SENHOR salvar com multidão ou com pouco número.
7 And his armour-bearer said to him, Do all that your heart inclines towards: behold, I [am] with you, my heart [is] as your heart.
E seu pajem de armas lhe respondeu: Faze tudo o que tens em teu coração: vai, que aqui estou contigo à tua vontade.
8 And Jonathan said, Behold, we will go over to the men, and will come down suddenly upon them.
E Jônatas disse: Eis que, nós passaremos aos homens, e nos mostraremos a eles.
9 If they should say thus to us, Stand aloof there until we shall send you word; then we will stand still by ourselves, and will not go up against them.
Se nos disserem assim: Esperai até que cheguemos a vós; então nos estaremos em nosso lugar, e não subiremos a eles.
10 [But] if they should say thus to us, Come up to us; then will we go up, for the Lord has delivered them into our hands; this [shall be] a sign to us.
Mas se nos disserem assim: Subi a nós: então subiremos, porque o SENHOR os entregou em nossas mãos: e isto nos será por sinal.
11 And they both went in to Messab of the Philistines; and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of their Caves, where they had hidden themselves.
Mostraram-se, pois, ambos à guarnição dos filisteus, e os filisteus disseram: Eis que os hebreus, que saem das cavernas em que se haviam escondido.
12 And the men of Messab answered Jonathan and his armour-bearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will show you a thing: and Jonathan said to his armour-bearer, Come up after me, for the Lord has delivered them into the hands of Israel.
E os homens da guarnição responderam a Jônatas e a seu pajem de armas, e disseram: Subi a nós, e vos faremos saber uma coisa. Então Jônatas disse a seu pajem de armas: Sobe atrás mim, que o SENHOR os entregou na mão de Israel.
13 And Jonathan went up on his hands and feet, and his armour-bearer with him; and they looked on the face of Jonathan, and he struck them, and his armour-bearer did strike [them] after him.
E subiu Jônatas escalando com suas mãos e seus pés, e atrás dele seu pajem de armas; e os que caíam diante de Jônatas, seu pajem de armas que ia atrás dele os matava.
14 And the first slaughter which Jonathan and his armour-bearer effected was twenty men, with darts and slings, and pebbles of the field.
Esta foi a primeira derrota, na qual Jônatas com seu pajem de armas, mataram como uns vinte homens no espaço de uma meia jeira.
15 And there was dismay in the camp, and in the field; and all the people in Messab, and the spoilers were amazed; and they would not act, and the land was terror-struck, and there was dismay from the lord.
E houve tremor no acampamento e pelo campo, e entre toda a gente da guarnição; e os que haviam ido a fazer saques, também eles tremeram, e alvoroçou-se a terra: houve, pois, grande pânico.
16 And the watchmen of Saul saw in Gabaa of Benjamin, and, behold, the army was thrown into confusion on every side.
E as sentinelas de Saul viram desde Gibeá de Benjamim como a multidão estava perturbada, e ia de uma parte à outra, e era desfeita.
17 And Saul said to the people with him, Number yourselves now, and see who has gone out from you: and they numbered themselves, and behold, Jonathan and his armour-bearer were not found.
Então Saul disse ao povo que tinha consigo: Reconhecei logo, e olhai quem tenha ido dos nossos. E depois de terem reconhecido, acharam que faltavam Jônatas e seu pajem de armas.
18 And Saul said to Achia, Bring the ephod; for he wore the ephod in that day before Israel.
E Saul disse a Aías: Traze a arca de Deus. Porque a arca de Deus estava então com os filhos de Israel.
19 And it came to pass while Saul was speaking to the priest, that the sound in the camp of the Philistines continued to increase greatly; and Saul said to the priest, Withdraw your hands.
E aconteceu que estando ainda falando Saul com o sacerdote, o alvoroço que havia no campo dos filisteus se aumentava, e ia crescendo em grande maneira. Então disse Saul ao sacerdote: Detém tua mão.
20 And Saul went up and all the people that were with him, and they come to the battle: and, behold, [every] man's sword was against his neighbour, a very great confusion.
E juntando Saul todo o povo que com ele estava, vieram até o lugar da batalha: e eis que a espada de cada um era volta contra seu companheiro, e a mortandade era grande.
21 And the servants who had been before with the Philistines, who had gone up to the army, turned themselves also to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
E os hebreus que haviam estado com os filisteus de tempo antes, e haviam vindo com eles dos arredores ao acampamento, também estes se voltaram a ser com os israelitas que estavam com Saul e com Jônatas.
22 And all the Israelites who were hidden in mount Ephraim heard also that the Philistines fled; and they also gather themselves after them to battle: and the Lord saved Israel in that day; and the war passed through Bamoth; and all the people with Saul were about ten thousand men.
Também todos os israelitas que se haviam escondido no monte de Efraim, ouvindo que os filisteus fugiam, eles também os perseguiram naquela batalha.
23 And the battle extended itself to every city in the mount Ephraim.
Assim salvou o SENHOR a Israel aquele dia. E chegou o alcance até Bete-Áven.
24 And Saul committed a great trespass of ignorance in that day, and he lays a curse on the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who shall eat bread before the evening; so I will avenge myself on my enemy: and none of the people tasted bread, though all the land was dining.
Porém os homens de Israel foram postos em apuros aquele dia; porque Saul havia conjurado ao povo, dizendo: Qualquer um que comer pão até a tarde, até que tenha tomado vingança de meus inimigos, seja maldito. E todo o povo não havia provado pão.
25 And Jaal was a wood abounding in swarms of bees on the face of the ground.
E todo o povo daquela terra chegou a um bosque de onde havia mel na superfície do campo.
26 And the people went into the place of the bees, and, behold, they continued speaking; and, behold, there was none that put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath of the Lord.
Entrou, pois, o povo no bosque, e eis que o mel corria; mas ninguém havia que chegasse a mão à sua boca: porque o povo temia o juramento.
27 And Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people; and he reached forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, an dipped it into the honeycomb, and returned his hand to his mouth, and his eyes recovered their sight.
Porém Jônatas não havia ouvido quando seu pai conjurou ao povo, e estendeu a ponta de uma vara que trazia em sua mão, e molhou-a em um favo de mel, e chegou sua mão a sua boca; e seus olhos se iluminaram.
28 And one of the people answered and said, Your father solemnly adjured the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who shall eat bread today. And the people were very faint,
Então falou um do povo, dizendo: Teu pai conjurou expressamente ao povo, dizendo: Maldito seja o homem que comer hoje alimento. E o povo desfalecia.
29 and Jonathan knew it, and said, My father has destroyed the land: see how my eyes have received sight [now] that I have tasted a little of this honey.
E Jônatas respondeu: Meu pai perturbou esta terra. Vede agora como foram aclarados meus olhos, por haver provado um pouco deste mel;
30 Surely if the people had this day eaten freely of the spoils of their enemies which they found, the slaughter amongst the Philistines would have been greater.
Quanto mais se o povo houvesse hoje comido do despojo de seus inimigos que achou? não se haveria feito agora maior estrago nos filisteus?
31 And on that day he struck some of the Philistines in Machmas; and the people were very weary.
E feriram aquele dia aos filisteus desde Micmás até Aijalom: mas o povo se cansou muito.
32 And the people turned to the spoil; and the people took flocks, and herds, and calves, and killed them on the ground, and the people ate with the blood.
Tornou-se, portanto, o povo ao despojo, e tomaram ovelhas e vacas e bezerros, e mataram-nos em terra, e o povo comeu com sangue.
33 And it was reported to Saul, saying, The people have sinned against the Lord, eating with the blood: and Saul said, Out of Getthaim roll a great stone to me hither.
E dando-lhe disso aviso a Saul, disseram-lhe: O povo peca contra o SENHOR comendo com sangue. E ele disse: Vós cometestes transgressão; rolai-me agora aqui uma grande pedra.
34 And Saul said, Disperse yourselves amongst the people, and tell them to bring hither every one his calf, and every one his sheep: and let them kill it on this [stone] and sin not against the Lord in eating with the blood: and the people brought each one that which was in his hand, and they killed [them] there.
E Saul voltou a dizer: Espalhai-vos pelo povo, e dizei-lhes que me tragam cada um sua vaca, e cada qual sua ovelha, e degolai-os aqui, e comei; e não pecareis contra o SENHOR comendo com sangue. E trouxe todo o povo cada qual por sua mão sua vaca aquela noite, e ali degolaram.
35 And Saul built an altar there to the Lord: this was the first altar that Saul built to the Lord.
E edificou Saul altar ao SENHOR, o qual altar foi o primeiro que edificou ao SENHOR.
36 And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines this night, and let us plunder amongst them till the day break, and let us not leave a man amongst them. And they said, Do all that is good in your sight: and the priest said, let us draw near hither to God.
E disse Saul: Desçamos de noite contra os filisteus, e os saquearemos até a manhã, e não deixaremos deles ninguém. E eles disseram: Faze o que bem te parecer. Disse logo o sacerdote: Acheguemo-nos aqui a Deus.
37 And Saul enquired of God, If I go down after the Philistines, will you deliver them into the hands of Israel? And he answered him not in that day.
E Saul consultou a Deus: Descerei atrás dos filisteus? os entregarás em mão de Israel? Mas o SENHOR não lhe deu resposta aquele dia.
38 And Saul said, Bring hither all the chiefs of Israel, and know and see by whom this sin has been committed this day.
Então disse Saul: Achegai-vos aqui todos os principais do povo; e sabei e olhai por quem foi hoje este pecado;
39 For as the Lord lives who has saved Israel, if answer should be against my son Jonathan, he shall surely die. And there was no one that answered out of all the people.
Porque vive o SENHOR, que salva a Israel, que se for em meu filho Jônatas, ele morrerá de certo. E não houve em todo o povo quem lhe respondesse.
40 And he said to all the men of Israel, You shall be under subjection, and I an Jonathan my son will be under subjection: and the people said to Saul, Do that which is good in your sight.
Disse logo a todo Israel: Vós estareis a um lado, e eu e Jônatas meu filho estaremos a outro lado. E o povo respondeu a Saul: Faze o que bem te parecer.
41 And Saul said, O Lord God of Israel, why have you not answered your servant this day? [is] the iniquity in me, or in Jonathan my son? Lord God of Israel, give clear [manifestations]; and if [the lot] should declare this, give, I pray you, to your people of Israel, give, I pray, holiness. And Jonathan and Saul are taken, and the people escaped.
Então disse Saul ao SENHOR Deus de Israel: Dá perfeição. E foram tomados Jônatas e Saul, e o povo saiu livre.
42 And Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and my son Jonathan: whoever the Lord shall cause to be taken by lot, let him die: and the people said to Saul, This thing is not [to be done]: and Saul prevailed against the people, and they cast [lots] between him and Jonathan his son, and Jonathan is taken by lot.
E Saul disse: Lançai sorte entre mim e Jônatas meu filho. E foi tomado Jônatas.
43 And Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what you have done: and Jonathan told him, and said, I did indeed taste a little honey, with the end of my staff that was in my hand, and, behold! I [am to] die.
Então Saul disse a Jônatas: Declara-me que fizeste. E Jônatas se o declarou, e disse: Certo que provei com a ponta da vara que trazia em minha mão, um pouco de mel: e eis que ei de morrer?
44 And Saul said to him, God do so to me, and more also, you shall surely die today.
E Saul respondeu: Assim me faça Deus e assim me acrescente, que sem dúvida morrerás, Jônatas.
45 And the people said to Saul, Shall he that has wrought this great salvation in Israel be put to death this day? [As] the Lord lives, there shall not fall to the ground one of the hairs of his head; for the people of God have wrought successfully this day. And the people prayed for Jonathan in that day, and he died not.
Mas o povo disse a Saul: Há, pois, de morrer Jônatas, o que fez esta salvação grande em Israel? Não será assim. Vive o SENHOR, que não há de cair um cabelo de sua cabeça em terra, pois que operou hoje com Deus. Assim livrou o povo a Jônatas, para que não morresse.
46 And Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines departed to their place.
E Saul deixou de perseguir aos filisteus; e os filisteus se foram a seu lugar.
47 And Saul received the kingdom, by lot he inherits the office [of ruling] over Israel: and he fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against the children of Edom, and against Baethaeor, and against the king of Suba, and against the Philistines: wherever he turned, he was victorious.
E ocupando Saul o reino sobre Israel, fez guerra a todos seus inimigos ao redor: contra Moabe, contra os filhos de Amom, contra Edom, contra os reis de Zobá, e contra os filisteus: e a de onde quer que se voltava era vencedor.
48 And he wrought valiantly, and struck Amalec, and rescued Israel out of the hand of them that trampled on him.
E reuniu um exército, e feriu a Amaleque, e livrou a Israel da mão dos que lhe roubavam.
49 And the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Jessiu, and Melchisa: and [these were] the names of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn Merob, and the name of the second Melchol.
E os filhos de Saul foram Jônatas, Isvi, e Malquisua. E os nomes de suas duas filhas eram, o nome da mais velha, Merabe, e o da mais nova, Mical.
50 And the name of his wife was Achinoom, the daughter of Achimaa: and the name of his captain of the host was Abenner, the son of Ner, son of a kinsman of Saul.
E o nome da mulher de Saul era Ainoã, filha de Aimaás. E o nome do general de seu exército era Abner, filho de Ner tio de Saul.
51 And Kis [was] the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abenezer, [was] son of Jamin, son of Abiel.
Porque Quis pai de Saul, e Ner pai de Abner, foram filhos de Abiel.
52 And the war was vehement against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man, and any valiant man, then he took them to himself.
E a guerra foi forte contra os filisteus todo o tempo de Saul; e a qualquer um que Saul via homem valente e homem de esforço, juntava-lhe consigo.
