< 1 Chronicles 10 >
1 Now the Philistines were fighting against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from the Philistines, and they fell down wounded on mount Gilboa.
Os filisteus guerrearam contra Israel; e os homens de Israel fugiram diante deles, e caíram feridos no monte de Gilboa.
2 And when the Philistines had drawn near, pursuing Saul and his sons, they struck down Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
E os filisteus perseguiram a Saul e a seus filhos; e os filisteus mataram Jônatas, Abinadabe, e Malquisua, filhos de Saul.
3 And the battle grew heavy against Saul. And the archers found him, and they wounded him with arrows.
E a batalha se dificultou sobre Saul; os flecheiros o alcançaram, e ele foi ferido pelos flecheiros.
4 And Saul said to his armor bearer: “Unsheathe your sword and kill me. Otherwise, these uncircumcised men may arrive and mock me.” But his armor bearer was not willing, having been struck with fear. And so, Saul took hold of his sword, and he fell upon it.
Então Saul disse a seu escudeiro: Tira a tua espada, e atravessa-me com ela, para que não aconteça que estes incircuncisos venham, e escarneçam de mim. Porém seu escudeiro não quis, porque tinha muito medo. Então Saul tomou a espada, e se lançou sobre ela.
5 And when his armor bearer had seen this, specifically, that Saul was dead, he now fell on his sword also, and he died.
E quando seu escudeiro viu que Saul estava morto, ele também se lançou sobre sua espada, e morreu.
6 Therefore, Saul died, and his three sons passed away, and his entire house fell, together.
Assim Saul e seus três filhos morreram; e toda a sua casa morreu juntamente com ele.
7 And when the men of Israel who were living in the plains had seen this, they fled. And since Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and were dispersed, here and there. And the Philistines arrived and lived among them.
E quando todos os homens de Israel que estavam no vale viram que [o exército] havia fugido, e que Saul e seus filhos estavam mortos, deixaram suas cidades, e fugiram; então os filisteus vieram, e habitaram nelas.
8 Then, on the next day, when the Philistines were taking away the spoils of the slain, they found Saul and his sons, lying on mount Gilboa.
E no dia seguinte, quando os Filisteus vieram para despojar os mortos, acharam Saul e seus filhos estendidos no monte de Gilboa.
9 And when they had despoiled him, and had cut off his head, and had stripped his armor, they sent these things into their land, so that they would be carried around and displayed in the temples of the idols and to the people.
Então o despiram, tomaram sua cabeça e suas armas, e as enviaram por toda a terra dos filisteus para anunciarem a seus ídolos e ao povo.
10 But his armor they consecrated in the shrine of their god, and his head they affixed in the temple of Dagon.
E puseram suas armas no templo de seu deus, e colocaram sua cabeça no templo de Dagom.
11 When the men of Jabesh Gilead had heard this, specifically, all that the Philistines had done concerning Saul,
E quando todos os de Jabes-Gileade ouviram tudo quanto filisteus haviam feito a Saul,
12 each one of the valiant men rose up, and they took the bodies of Saul and of his sons. And they brought them to Jabesh. And they buried their bones under the oak that was in Jabesh. And they fasted for seven days.
Todos os homens valentes se levantaram, tomaram o corpo de Saul e os corpos de seus filhos, e os trouxeram a Jabes; e sepultaram seus ossos debaixo de um carvalho em Jabes, e jejuaram durante sete dias.
13 Thus did Saul die for his iniquities, because he betrayed the commandment of the Lord which he had instructed, and did not keep it. And moreover, he even consulted a woman diviner;
Assim Saul morreu por sua transgressão com que havia transgredido contra o SENHOR, por causa da palavra do SENHOR, a qual ele não obedeceu; e por ter buscado à médium para lhe consultar,
14 for he did not trust in the Lord. Because of this, he caused his death, and he transferred his kingdom to David, the son of Jesse.
E não ter buscado ao SENHOR. Por isso ele o matou, e passou o reino a Davi, filho de Jessé.
