1 Samuel 14
1 And it happened that, on a certain day, Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the youth who bore his armor, “Come, and let us go over to the garrison of the Philistines, which is across from that place.” But he did not reveal this to his father.
Agora aconteceu em um dia que Jonathan, filho de Saul, disse ao jovem que carregava sua armadura: “Venha! Vamos até a guarnição dos filisteus que está do outro lado”. Mas ele não disse a seu pai.
2 Moreover, Saul was staying in the furthermost part of Gibeah, below the pomegranate tree that was at Migron. And the people with him were about six hundred men.
Saul ficou na parte mais alta de Gibeá sob a romãzeira que está em Migron; e as pessoas que estavam com ele eram cerca de seiscentos homens,
3 And Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, the brother of Ichabod, the son of Phinehas, who had been born of Eli, the priest of the Lord at Shiloh, wore the ephod. But the people did not know where Jonathan had gone.
including Ahijah o filho de Ahitub, irmão de Ichabod, o filho de Phinehas, o filho de Eli o sacerdote de Yahweh em Shiloh, vestindo um éfode. O povo não sabia que Jonathan tinha ido embora.
4 Now there were, between the ascents along which Jonathan strove to cross to the garrison of the Philistines, rocks projecting from both sides, and, in the manner of teeth, boulders breaking out from one side and the other. The name of one was Shining, and the name of the other was Thorny.
Entre os passes, pelos quais Jonathan procurou ir até a guarnição dos filisteus, havia um penhasco rochoso de um lado e um penhasco rochoso do outro; e o nome de um era Bozez, e o nome do outro Seneh.
5 One boulder projected toward the north, opposite Michmash, and the other toward the south, opposite Gibeah.
Um dos penhascos subiu ao norte na frente de Michmash, e o outro ao sul na frente de Geba.
6 Then Jonathan said to the youth who bore his armor: “Come, let us go across to the garrison of these uncircumcised. And perhaps the Lord may act on our behalf. For it is not difficult for the Lord to save, either by many, or by few.”
Jonathan disse ao jovem que levava sua armadura: “Venha! Vamos até a guarnição destes incircuncisos. Pode ser que Yahweh trabalhe para nós, pois não há restrições a Yahweh para salvar por muitos ou por poucos”.
7 And his armor bearer said to him: “Do all that is pleasing to your soul. Go wherever you wish, and I will be with you, wherever you will choose.”
Seu portador de armadura lhe disse: “Faça tudo o que está em seu coração”. Vai, e eis que estou contigo de acordo com teu coração”.
8 And Jonathan said: “Behold, we will cross over to these men. And when we will be seen by them,
Então Jonathan disse: “Eis que passaremos para os homens, e nos revelaremos a eles.
9 if they have spoken to us in this way, ‘Stay until we come to you,’ let us stand still in our place, and not ascend to them.
Se eles nos disserem isto: “Esperem até chegarmos a vocês”, então ficaremos parados em nosso lugar e não subiremos até eles.
10 But if they will say, ‘Ascend to us,’ let us ascend. For the Lord has delivered them into our hands. This will be the sign to us.”
Mas se eles disserem isto, 'Venham até nós!', então subiremos, pois Yahweh os entregou em nossas mãos. Este será o sinal para nós”.
11 And so, both of them appeared before the garrison of the Philistines. And the Philistines said, “See, the Hebrews have come out from the holes in which they had been hiding.”
Ambos se revelaram à guarnição dos filisteus; e os filisteus disseram: “Eis que os hebreus estão saindo dos buracos onde se haviam escondido”!
12 And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan and to his armor bearer, and they said, “Ascend to us, and we will show you something.” And Jonathan said to his armor bearer: “Let us ascend. Follow me. For the Lord has delivered them into the hands of Israel.”
Os homens da guarnição responderam a Jonathan e seu portador de armadura, e disseram: “Suba até nós, e nós lhe mostraremos algo”! Jonathan disse a seu portador de armadura: “Suba atrás de mim, pois Yahweh os entregou nas mãos de Israel”.
13 Then Jonathan ascended, crawling on his hands and feet, and his armor bearer after him. And then, some fell before Jonathan, others his armor bearer killed as he was following him.
Jonatã subiu em suas mãos e em seus pés, e seu portador de armadura depois dele, e eles caíram antes de Jonatã; e seu portador de armadura os matou depois dele.
14 And the first slaughter was made when Jonathan and his armor bearer struck down about twenty of the men, in the midst of an area of land that a yoke of oxen would usually plow in a day.
A primeira matança, que Jônatas e seu portador de armadura fizeram, foi de cerca de vinte homens, dentro de um comprimento de meio sulco em um acre de terra.
15 And a miracle occurred in the camp, out in the fields. And all of the people of their garrison, who had gone out in order to plunder, were stupefied. And the earth trembled. And it happened as a miracle from God.
Houve um tremor no campo, no campo e entre todas as pessoas; a guarnição e os invasores também tremeram; e a terra tremeu, de modo que houve um tremor extremamente grande.
16 And the watchmen of Saul, who were at Gibeah of Benjamin, looked out, and behold, a multitude was thrown down and dispersed, this way and that.
Os guardas de Saul em Gibeah de Benjamin olharam; e eis que a multidão se derreteu e se dispersou.
17 And Saul said to the people who were with him, “Inquire and see who has gone out from us.” And when they had inquired, it was found that Jonathan and his armor bearer were not present.
Então Saul disse ao povo que estava com ele: “Conte agora, e veja quem está faltando”. Quando eles contaram, eis que Jonathan e seu portador de armaduras não estavam lá.
18 And Saul said to Ahijah, “Bring the ark of the God.” (For the ark of God was, in that day, with the sons of Israel in that place.)
Saul disse a Ahijah: “Tragam a arca de Deus aqui”. Pois a arca de Deus estava com os filhos de Israel naquela época.
19 And while Saul spoke to the priest, there arose a great tumult in the camp of the Philistines. And it was increasing, little by little, and it was being heard more clearly. And Saul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.”
Enquanto Saul falava com o sacerdote, o tumulto que estava no acampamento dos filisteus continuou e aumentou; e Saul disse ao sacerdote: “Retire sua mão”.
20 Then Saul, and all the people who were with him, cried out together, and they went to the place of the conflict. And behold, each one’s sword had been turned against his neighbor, and there was a very great slaughter.
Saul e todas as pessoas que estavam com ele estavam reunidos, e vieram para a batalha; e eis que todos eles estavam golpeando uns aos outros com suas espadas em uma confusão muito grande.
21 Moreover, the Hebrews who had been with the Philistines yesterday and the day before, and who had ascended with them into the camp, turned back so that they might be with those of Israel who were with Saul and Jonathan.
Agora os hebreus que estavam com os filisteus antes e que subiram com eles para o acampamento de todos os lados, até mesmo eles se voltaram para estar com os israelitas que estavam com Saul e Jonathan.
22 Likewise, all the Israelites who had hidden themselves on mount Ephraim, hearing that the Philistines had fled, joined themselves with their own in the battle. And there were with Saul about ten thousand men.
Da mesma forma, todos os homens de Israel que se haviam escondido na região montanhosa de Efraim, quando souberam que os filisteus fugiram, até mesmo eles também os seguiram duramente na batalha.
23 And the Lord saved Israel on that day. But the fight continued as far as Bethaven.
Então Yahweh salvou Israel naquele dia; e a batalha passou pela avenida Beth.
24 And the men of Israel were joined together on that day. And Saul made the people swear, saying, “Cursed be the man who will eat bread, until evening, until I am avenged of my enemies.” And the entire people did not consume bread.
Os homens de Israel estavam angustiados naquele dia; pois Saul tinha contido o povo, dizendo: “Maldito é o homem que come qualquer comida até que seja noite, e eu estou vingado de meus inimigos”. Portanto, nenhum do povo provou comida.
25 And all the common people went into a forest, in which there was honey on the surface of the field.
Todas as pessoas entraram na floresta; e havia mel no chão.
26 And so the people entered the forest, and there appeared flowing honey, but no one drew his hand near his mouth. For the people were afraid of the oath.
Quando as pessoas chegaram à floresta, eis que o mel estava pingando, mas ninguém lhe pôs a mão na boca, pois as pessoas temiam o juramento.
27 But Jonathan had not heard that his father had bound the people to an oath. And so he extended the top of the staff that he was holding in his hand, and he dipped it in a honeycomb. And he turned his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were brightened.
Mas Jonathan não ouviu quando seu pai comandou o povo com o juramento. Portanto, ele estendeu a ponta da vara que estava em sua mão e a mergulhou no favo de mel, e colocou sua mão na boca; e seus olhos brilharam.
28 And in response, one of the people said, “Your father has bound the people by an oath, saying: ‘Cursed be the man who will eat any bread this day.’” (For the people were faint.)
Então um do povo respondeu, e disse: “Seu pai comandou diretamente o povo com um juramento, dizendo: 'Amaldiçoado é o homem que come comida hoje”. Então o povo estava desmaiado.
29 And Jonathan said: “My father has troubled the land. You have seen for yourselves that my eyes were brightened, because I tasted a little of this honey.
Então Jonathan disse: “Meu pai tem perturbado a terra. Por favor, veja como meus olhos brilharam porque eu provei um pouco deste mel”.
30 How much more so, if the people had eaten from the plunder that they find with their enemies? Would not a greater slaughter have been accomplished among the Philistines?”
Quanto mais, se talvez o povo hoje tivesse comido livremente da pilhagem de seus inimigos que encontraram? Por enquanto, não houve grande matança entre os filisteus”.
31 Therefore, on that day, they struck down the Philistines, from Michmash as far as Aijalon. But the people were exceedingly wearied.
Eles atacaram os filisteus naquele dia, de Michmash a Aijalon. O povo estava muito fraco;
32 And turning to the spoils, they took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and they slew them on the ground. And the people ate with blood.
e o povo derramou sobre o saque, e levou ovelhas, gado e bezerros, e os matou no chão; e o povo os comeu com o sangue.
33 Then they reported to Saul, saying that the people had sinned against the Lord, eating with blood. And he said: “You have transgressed. Roll a great stone to me, here and now.”
Então eles disseram a Saul, dizendo: “Eis que o povo está pecando contra Javé, pois comem carne com o sangue”. Ele disse: “Você lidou traiçoeiramente”. Enrole uma grande pedra para mim hoje”!
34 And Saul said: “Disperse yourselves among the common people, and tell each one of them to bring to me his ox and his ram, and to slay them upon this stone, and to eat, so that you will not sin against the Lord, in eating with blood.” And so, each one, out of all the people, brought his ox, by his own hand, throughout the night. And they slew them there.
Saul disse: “Dispersai-vos entre o povo, e dizei-lhes: 'Cada homem me traga aqui seu boi, e cada homem suas ovelhas, e matem-nos aqui, e comam; e não pequem contra Javé ao comer carne com o sangue'”. Todo o povo trouxe cada homem seu boi com ele naquela noite, e os matou ali”.
35 Then Saul built an altar to the Lord. And so, it was then that he first began to build an altar to the Lord.
Saul construiu um altar para Yahweh. Este foi o primeiro altar que ele construiu para Yahweh.
36 And Saul said: “Let us fall upon the Philistines by night, and lay waste to them even until the morning light. And let us not leave behind a man among them.” And the people said, “Do all that seems good in your eyes.” And the priest said, “Let us draw near to God in this place.”
Saul disse: “Vamos descer atrás dos filisteus à noite, e pilhar entre eles até a luz da manhã”. Não vamos deixar um homem deles”. Eles disseram: “Faça o que lhe parecer bom”. Então o padre disse: “Vamos nos aproximar de Deus aqui”.
37 And Saul consulted the Lord: “Shall I pursue the Philistines? Will you deliver them into the hands of Israel?” And he did not respond to him on that day.
Saul pediu conselho a Deus: “Devo descer depois dos filisteus? Você os entregará nas mãos de Israel”? Mas ele não lhe respondeu naquele dia.
38 And Saul said: “Bring here every single leader of the people. And we shall know and see by whom this sin was committed this day.
Saul disse: “Aproximem-se aqui, todos vocês, chefes do povo, e conheçam e vejam em quem este pecado tem sido hoje.
39 As the Lord lives, who is the Savior of Israel, even if it were done by my son Jonathan, without retraction he shall die.” In this, no one among all the people contradicted him.
Pois como Javé vive, que salva Israel, embora seja em Jonathan meu filho, ele certamente morrerá”. Mas não havia um homem entre todo o povo que lhe respondesse.
40 And he said to all of Israel, “Separate yourselves on one side, and I, with my son Jonathan, will be on the other side.” And the people responded to Saul, “Do what seems good in your eyes.”
Então ele disse a todo Israel: “Tu estás de um lado, e eu e Jônatas, meu filho, estaremos do outro lado”. O povo disse a Saul: “Faça o que parece bom para você”.
41 And Saul said to the Lord, the God of Israel: “O Lord, God of Israel, grant a sign: Why is it that you will not respond to your servant this day? If this iniquity is in me, or in my son Jonathan, grant an indication. Or if this iniquity is in your people, grant a sanctification.” And Jonathan and Saul were discovered, but the people were released.
Portanto, Saul disse a Javé, o Deus de Israel: “Mostre o direito”. Jonathan e Saul foram escolhidos, mas o povo escapou.
42 And Saul said, “Cast lots between myself and Jonathan, my son.” And Jonathan was caught.
Saul disse: “Loteie entre mim e Jonathan, meu filho”. Jonathan foi selecionado.
43 Then Saul said to Jonathan, “Tell me what you have done.” And Jonathan revealed to him, and said: “Truly, I tasted a little honey with the top of the staff that was in my hand. And behold, I shall die.”
Então Saul disse a Jonathan: “Diga-me o que você fez”! Jonathan disse a ele, e disse: “Certamente provei um pouco de mel com a ponta da haste que estava em minha mão; e eis que devo morrer”.
44 And Saul said, “May God do these things to me, and may he add these other things, for you shall surely die, Jonathan!”
Saul disse: “Deus o faça e muito mais também; porque certamente morrereis, Jonathan”.
45 And the people said to Saul: “Why should Jonathan have to die, who has accomplished this great salvation in Israel? This is wrong. As the Lord lives, not one hair of his head should fall to the ground. For he has wrought with God this day.” Therefore, the people freed Jonathan, so that he would not die.
O povo disse a Saul: “Morrerá Jonathan, quem tem trabalhado esta grande salvação em Israel? Longe disso! Como Javé vive, não cairá um só cabelo de sua cabeça no chão, pois hoje ele trabalhou com Deus”! Então o povo resgatou Jônatas, para que ele não morresse.
46 And Saul withdrew, and he did not pursue the Philistines. And the Philistines went away to their own places.
Então Saul passou a seguir os filisteus; e os filisteus foram para o seu próprio lugar.
47 And Saul, his kingdom having been confirmed over Israel, was fighting against all his enemies on all sides: against Moab, and the sons of Ammon, and Edom, and the kings of Zobah, and the Philistines. And wherever he turned himself, he was successful.
Now quando Saul tomou o reino sobre Israel, ele lutou contra todos os seus inimigos de todos os lados: contra Moabe, e contra os filhos de Amon, e contra Edom, e contra os reis de Zobah, e contra os filisteus. Onde quer que ele se voltasse, ele os derrotava.
48 And gathering together an army, he struck Amalek. And he rescued Israel from the hand of those who would lay waste to them.
Ele fez valentemente e atingiu os amalequitas, e libertou Israel das mãos daqueles que os saquearam.
49 Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Ishvi, and Malchishua. And as for the names of his two daughters: the name of the firstborn daughter was Merab, and the name of the younger one was Michal.
Agora os filhos de Saul eram Jonathan, Ishvi e Malchishua; e os nomes de suas duas filhas eram estes: o nome do primogênito Merab, e o nome do mais jovem Michal.
50 And the name of the wife of Saul was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz. And the name of the first ruler of his military was Abner, the son of Ner, the first cousin of Saul.
O nome da esposa de Saul era Ahinoam, a filha de Ahimaaz. O nome do capitão de seu exército era Abner, o filho de Ner, tio de Saul.
51 For Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner was the father of Abner, and the son of Abiel.
Kish era o pai de Saul, e Ner o pai de Abner era o filho de Abiel.
52 Now there was a powerful war against the Philistines during all the days of Saul. And so, whomever Saul had seen to be a strong man, and fit for battle, he joined him to himself.
Houve uma guerra severa contra os filisteus todos os dias de Saul; e quando Saul viu qualquer homem poderoso ou valente, ele o levou ao seu serviço.
