2 Samuel 5

1 And all the tribes of Israel went to David in Hebron, saying: “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.

E vieram todas as tribos de Israel a Davi em Hebrom, e falaram, dizendo: Eis que nós somos teus ossos e tu carne.

2 Moreover, yesterday and the day before, when Saul was king over us, you were the one leading out and leading back Israel. Then the Lord said to you, ‘You shall pasture my people Israel, and you shall be the leader over Israel.’”

E ainda ontem e antes, quando Saul reinava sobre nós, tu tiravas e voltavas a Israel. Além disso, o SENHOR te disse: Tu apascentarás a meu povo Israel, e tu serás sobre Israel príncipe.

3 Also, the elders of Israel went to the king at Hebron, and king David struck a pact with them at Hebron in the sight of the Lord. And they anointed David as king over Israel.

Vieram, pois, todos os anciãos de Israel ao rei em Hebrom, e o rei Davi fez com eles aliança em Hebrom diante do SENHOR; e ungiram a Davi por rei sobre Israel.

4 David was a son of thirty years, when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for forty years.

Era Davi de trinta anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou quarenta anos.

5 In Hebron, he reigned over Judah for seven years and six months. Then in Jerusalem, he reigned for thirty-three years over all of Israel and Judah.

Em Hebrom reinou sobre Judá sete anos e seis meses: e em Jerusalém reinou trinta e três anos sobre todo Israel e Judá.

6 And the king, and all the men who were with him, went away to Jerusalem, to the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land. And it was said to David by them, “You shall not enter here, unless you will take away the blind and the lame, who say, ‘David shall not enter here.’”

Então o rei e os seus foram a Jerusalém aos jebuseus que habitavam na terra; os qual falaram a Davi, dizendo: Tu não entrarás aqui, a não ser que consigas expulsar aos cegos e aos coxos; e pensavam: Davi não entrará aqui.

7 But David seized the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.

Porém Davi tomou a fortaleza de Sião, a qual é a cidade de Davi.

8 For David had proposed, on that day, a reward to him who had struck the Jebusites and who had reached to the gutters of the rooftops, and who had taken away the blind and the lame that hated the soul of David. Therefore, it is said in the proverb, “The blind and the lame shall not enter into the temple.”

E disse Davi aquele dia: Quem chegará até os canais, e ferirá ao jebuseu, e aos coxos e cegos, aos quais a alma de Davi aborrece? Por isto se disse: Cego nem coxo não entrará em casa.

9 Then David lived in the stronghold, and he called it: the City of David. And he built it up on all sides, from Millo and inward.

E Davi morou na fortaleza e pôs-lhe por nome a Cidade de Davi: e edificou ao redor, desde Milo para dentro.

10 And he advanced, prospering and increasing, and the Lord, the God of hosts, was with him.

E Davi ia crescendo e aumentando-se, e o SENHOR Deus dos exércitos era com ele.

11 Also, Hiram, the king of Tyre, sent messengers to David, with cedar wood, and with builders of wood and builders of stone, in order to make walls. And they built a house for David.

E Hirão rei de Tiro enviou também embaixadores a Davi, e madeira de cedro, e carpinteiros, e pedreiros para os muros, os quais edificaram a casa de Davi.

12 And David knew that the Lord had confirmed him as king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom over his people Israel.

E entendeu Davi que o SENHOR lhe havia confirmado por rei sobre Israel, e que havia exaltado seu reino por causa de seu povo Israel.

13 Then David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, after he had arrived from Hebron. And other sons as well as daughters were born to David.

E tomou Davi mais concubinas e mulheres de Jerusalém depois que veio de Hebrom, e nasceram-lhe mais filhos e filhas.

14 And these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,

Estes são os nomes dos que lhe nasceram em Jerusalém: Samua, e Sobabe, e Natã, e Salomão,

15 and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Nepheg,

E Ibar, e Elisua, e Nefegue,

16 and Japhia, and Elishama, and Eliada, and Elipheleth.

E Jafia, e Elisama, e Eliada, e Elifelete.

17 Then the Philistines heard that they had anointed David as king over Israel. And they all ascended, so that they might seek David. And when David had heard of it, he descended to a stronghold.

E ouvindo os filisteus que haviam ungido a Davi por rei sobre Israel, todos os filisteus subiram a buscar a Davi: o qual quando Davi ouviu, veio à fortaleza.

18 Now the Philistines, arriving, spread themselves out in the Valley of Rephaim.

E vieram os filisteus, e estenderam-se pelo vale de Refaim.

19 And David consulted the Lord, saying: “Shall I ascend to the Philistines? And will you give them into my hand?” And the Lord said to David: “Ascend. For I will certainly give the Philistines into your hand.”

Então consultou Davi ao SENHOR, dizendo: Irei contra os filisteus? os entregarás em minhas mãos? E o SENHOR respondeu a Davi: Vai, porque certamente entregarei os filisteus em tuas mãos.

20 Therefore, David went to Baal-perazim. And he struck them there. And he said, “The Lord has divided my enemies before me, just as the waters are divided.” Because of this, the name of that place was called Baal-perazim.

E veio Davi a Baal-Perazim, e ali os venceu Davi, e disse: O SENHOR rompeu meus inimigos diante de mim, como o romper das águas. E por isto chamou o nome daquele lugar Baal-Perazim.

21 And in that place they left behind their graven images, which David and his men took away.

E deixaram ali seus ídolos, os quais queimou Davi e os seus.

22 And the Philistines continued still, so that they ascended and spread themselves out in the Valley of Rephaim.

E os filisteus voltaram a vir, e estenderam-se no vale de Refaim.

23 Then David consulted the Lord, “Shall I ascend against the Philistines, and will you deliver them into my hands?” And he responded: “You shall not ascend against them; instead, circle behind their back. And you shall come to them from the side opposite the balsam trees.

E consultando Davi ao SENHOR, ele lhe respondeu: Não subas; mas rodeia-os, e virás a eles por diante das amoreiras:

24 And when you hear the sound of something going forth from the tops of the balsam trees, then you shall begin the battle. For then the Lord will go forth, before your face, so that he may strike the army of the Philistines.”

E quando ouvires um estrondo que irá pelas copas das amoreiras, então te moverás; porque o SENHOR sairá diante de ti a ferir o acampamento dos filisteus.

25 And so, David did just as the Lord had instructed him. And he struck down the Philistines, from Gibeon until you arrive at Gezer.

E Davi o fez assim como o SENHOR havia lhe mandado; e feriu aos filisteus desde Gibeá até chegar a Gaza.
