1 Samuel 14
1 Now it came to pass one day that Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man that bore his armour, Come and let us go over to the Philistines' garrison which is on the other side. But he did not tell his father.
Succedeu pois que um dia disse Jonathan, filho de Saul, ao moço que lhe levava as armas: Vem, passemos á guarnição dos philisteos, que está lá d'aquella banda. Porém não o fez saber a seu pae
2 And Saul abode at the extreme end of Gibeah under the pomegranate-tree which [was] in Migron; and the people that were with him were about six hundred men.
E estava Saul á extremidade de Gibeah, debaixo da romeira que estava em Migron; e o povo que havia com elle eram uns seiscentos homens.
3 (And Ahijah the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, Jehovah's priest in Shiloh, wore the ephod.) And the people did not know that Jonathan was gone.
E Ahija, filho d'Ahitub, irmão d'Icabod, o filho de Phineas, filho d'Eli, sacerdote do Senhor em Silo, trazia o ephod: porém o povo não sabia que Jonathan tinha ido.
4 Now between the passes by which Jonathan sought to go over to the Philistines' garrison there was a sharp rock on the one side and a sharp rock on the other side; and the name of the one [was] Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.
E entre os passos pelos quaes Jonathan procurava passar á guarnição dos philisteos, d'esta banda havia uma penha aguda, e da outra banda uma penha aguda: e era o nome de uma Bozez, e o nome da outra Senné.
5 The one crag [formed] a pillar on the north opposite to Michmash, and the other on the south opposite to Geba.
Uma penha para o norte estava defronte de Michmas, e a outra para o sul defronte de Gibeah.
6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour, Come, and let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised: perhaps Jehovah will work for us; for there is no restraint to Jehovah to save by many or by few.
Disse pois Jonathan ao moço que lhe levava as armas: Vem, passemos á guarnição d'estes incircumcisos; porventura obrará o Senhor por nós, porque para com o Senhor nenhum impedimento ha de livrar com muitos ou com poucos.
7 And his armour-bearer said to him, Do all that is in thy heart; turn thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy heart.
Então o seu pagem d'armas lhe disse: Faze tudo o que tens no coração; volta, eis-me aqui comtigo, conforme ao teu coração.
8 Then said Jonathan, Behold, we will pass over to the men, and we will shew ourselves to them.
Disse pois Jonathan: Eis que passaremos áquelles homens, e nos descobriremos a elles.
9 If they say thus to us, Stand still until we come to you, then we will stay in our place, and will not go up to them.
Se nos disserem assim: Parae até que cheguemos a vós; então ficaremos no nosso logar, e não subiremos a elles.
10 And if they say thus, Come up to us, then we will go up; for Jehovah has given them into our hand; and this shall be the sign to us.
Porém, dizendo assim: Subi a nós; então subiremos, pois o Senhor os tem entregado na nossa mão, e isto nos será por signal.
11 And both of them shewed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines; and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of the holes where they had hid themselves.
Descobrindo-se ambos elles pois á guarnição dos philisteos, disseram os philisteos: Eis que já os hebreos sairam das cavernas em que se tinham escondido.
12 And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armour-bearer and said, Come up to us, and we will shew you something. And Jonathan said to his armour-bearer, Come up after me; for Jehovah has delivered them into the hand of Israel.
E os homens da guarnição responderam a Jonathan e ao seu pagem d'armas, e disseram: Subi a nós, e nós vol-o ensinaremos. E disse Jonathan ao seu pagem d'armas: Sobe atraz de mim, porque o Senhor os tem entregado na mão d'Israel.
13 And Jonathan climbed up upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armour-bearer after him; and they fell before Jonathan; and his armour-bearer slew after him.
Então trepou Jonathan com os pés e com as mãos, e o seu pagem d'armas atraz d'elle: e cairam diante de Jonathan, e o seu pagem d'armas os matava atraz d'elle.
14 And that first slaughter which Jonathan and his armour-bearer wrought was about twenty men, as it were on the half-furrow of an acre of land.
E succedeu esta primeira desfeita, em que Jonathan e o seu pagem d'armas feriram até uns vinte homens, quasi no meio de uma geira de terra que uma junta de bois podia lavrar.
15 And there was trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people; the garrison, and the ravagers, they also trembled, and the earth quaked; for it was a trembling [from] God.
E houve tremor no arraial, no campo e em todo o povo; tambem a mesma guarnição e os destruidores tremeram, e até a terra se alvoroçou, porquanto era tremor de Deus.
16 And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and behold, the multitude melted away, and they went on slaying one another.
Olharam pois as sentinellas de Saul em Gibeah de Benjamin, e eis que a multidão se derramava, e fugia batendo-se.
17 Then said Saul to the people that were with him, Muster now, and see who is gone from us. And they mustered, and behold, Jonathan and his armour-bearer were not there.
Disse então Saul ao povo que estava com elle: Ora numerae, e vêde quem é que saiu d'entre nós. E numeraram, e eis que nem Jonathan nem o seu pagem d'armas estavam ali
18 And Saul said to Ahijah, Bring hither the ark of God. For the ark of God was at that time with the children of Israel.
Então Saul disse a Ahija: Traze aqui a arca de Deus (porque n'aquelle dia estava a arca de Deus com os filhos d'Israel).
19 And it came to pass while Saul talked to the priest, that the noise which was in the camp of the Philistines went on and increased; and Saul said to the priest, Withdraw thy hand.
E succedeu que, estando Saul ainda fallando com o sacerdote, o alvoroço que havia no arraial dos philisteos ia crescendo muito, e se multiplicava, pelo que disse Saul ao sacerdote: Retira a tua mão.
20 And Saul and all the people that were with him were called together, and they came to the battle; and behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, a very great confusion.
Então Saul e todo o povo que havia com elle se convocaram, e vieram á peleja; e eis que a espada d'um era contra o outro, e houve mui grande tumulto.
21 And there were Hebrews with the Philistines before that time, who had gone up with them into the camp round about; and they also [turned] to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
Tambem com os philisteos havia hebreos, como d'antes, que subiram com elles ao arraial em redor; e tambem estes se ajuntaram com os israelitas que estavam com Saul e Jonathan.
22 And all the men of Israel who had hid themselves in mount Ephraim heard that the Philistines fled, and they also followed hard after them in the battle.
Ouvindo pois todos os homens d'Israel que se esconderam pela montanha d'Ephraim que os philisteos fugiam, elles tambem os perseguiram de perto na peleja.
23 And Jehovah saved Israel that day; and the battle passed over beyond Beth-Aven.
Assim livrou o Senhor a Israel n'aquelle dia: e o arraial passou a Beth-aven.
24 But the men of Israel were distressed that day. Now Saul had adjured the people, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth food until evening, and [until] I am avenged on mine enemies. So none of the people tasted food.
E estavam os homens d'Israel já exhaustos n'aquelle dia, porquanto Saul conjurou o povo, dizendo: Maldito o homem que comer pão até á tarde, para que me vingue de meus inimigos. Pelo que todo o povo se absteve de provar pão
25 And all they of the land came to a wood; and there was honey on the ground.
E toda a terra chegou a um bosque: e havia mel na superficie do campo.
26 And the people had come into the wood, and behold, the honey flowed; but no man put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath.
E, chegando o povo ao bosque, eis que havia um manancial de mel: porém ninguem chegou a mão á bocca porque o povo temia a conjuração
27 But Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people; and he put forth the end of his staff which was in his hand, and dipped it in the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth, and his eyes became bright.
Porém Jonathan não tinha ouvido quando seu pae conjurava o povo, e estendeu a ponta da vara que tinha na mão, e a molhou no favo de mel; e, tornando a mão á bocca, aclararam-se os seus olhos.
28 Then answered one of the people and said, Thy father strictly adjured the people, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth food this day; and the people are faint.
Então respondeu um do povo, e disse: Solemnemente conjurou teu pae o povo, dizendo: Maldito o homem que comer hoje pão. Pelo que o povo desfallecia.
29 And Jonathan said, My father has troubled the land: see, I pray you, that mine eyes are bright, because I tasted a little of this honey.
Então disse Jonathan: Meu pae tem turbado a terra; ora vêde como se me aclararam os olhos por ter gostado um pouco d'este mel,
30 How much more, if the people had eaten freely to-day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? for would there not now have been a much greater slaughter among the Philistines?
Quanto mais se o povo hoje livremente tivesse comido do despojo que achou de seus inimigos. Porém agora não foi tão grande o estrago dos philisteos.
31 And they smote the Philistines that day from Michmash to Ajalon; and the people were very faint.
Feriram porém aquelle dia aos philisteos, desde Michmas até Ajalon, e o povo desfalleceu em extremo.
32 And the people fell on the spoil, and took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slaughtered them on the ground; and the people ate [them] with the blood.
Então o povo se lançou ao despojo, e tomaram ovelhas, e vaccas, e bezerros, e os degolaram no chão; e o povo os comeu com sangue.
33 And they told Saul, saying, Behold, the people sin against Jehovah, in that they eat with the blood. And he said, Ye have acted perversely: roll me now a great stone.
E o annunciaram a Saul, dizendo: Eis que o povo pecca contra o Senhor, comendo com sangue. E disse elle: Aleivosamente obrastes; revolvei-me hoje uma grande pedra.
34 And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and say to them, Bring near to me every man his ox, and every man his sheep, and slaughter them here, and eat; and sin not against Jehovah in eating with the blood. And all the people brought every man his ox with him that night, and slaughtered [them] there.
Disse mais Saul: Derramae-vos entre o povo, e dizei-lhes: Trazei-me cada um o seu boi, e cada um a sua ovelha, e degolae-os aqui, e comei, e não pequeis contra o Senhor, comendo com sangue. Então todo o povo trouxe de noite, cada um com a sua mão, o seu boi, e os degolaram ali.
35 And Saul built an altar to Jehovah: this was the first altar he built to Jehovah.
Então edificou Saul um altar ao Senhor: este foi o primeiro altar que edificou ao Senhor.
36 And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and plunder them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And they said, Do whatsoever is good in thy sight. Then said the priest, Let us come near hither to God.
Depois disse Saul: Desçamos de noite atraz dos philisteos, e despojemol-os, até que amanheça a luz, e não deixemos de resto um homem d'elles. E disseram: Tudo o que parecer bem aos teus olhos faze. Disse porém o sacerdote: Cheguemo-nos aqui a Deus
37 And Saul inquired of God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt thou give them into the hand of Israel? But he did not answer him that day.
Então consultou Saul a Deus, dizendo: Descerei atraz dos philisteos? entregal-os-has na mão de Israel? Porém aquelle dia lhe não respondeu.
38 And Saul said, Draw ye near hither, all the heads of the people; and know and see wherein this sin has been this day.
Então disse Saul: Chegae-vos para cá de todos os chefes do povo, e informae-vos, e vêde em que se commetteu hoje este peccado;
39 For, [as] Jehovah liveth, who has saved Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall certainly die. And no one answered him among all the people.
Porque vive o Senhor que salva a Israel, que, ainda que fosse em meu filho Jonathan, certamente morrerá. E nenhum de todo o povo lhe respondeu.
40 Then said he to all Israel, Be ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said to Saul, Do what is good in thy sight.
Disse mais a todo o Israel: Vós estareis d'uma banda, e eu e meu filho Jonathan estaremos da outra banda. Então disse o povo a Saul: Faze o que parecer bem aos teus olhos.
41 And Saul said to Jehovah the God of Israel, Give a perfect [testimony]! And Jonathan and Saul were taken, and the people escaped.
Fallou pois Saul ao Senhor Deus d'Israel: Mostra o innocente. Então Jonathan e Saul foram tomados por sorte, e o povo saiu livre.
42 And Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.
Então disse Saul: Lançae a sorte entre mim e Jonathan, meu filho. E foi tomado Jonathan.
43 And Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him and said, With the end of the staff which is in my hand I tasted a little honey, [and] behold, I must die!
Disse então Saul a Jonathan: Declara-me o que tens feito. E Jonathan lh'o declarou, e disse: Tão sómente gostei um pouco de mel com a ponta da vara que tinha na mão; eis que devo morrer.
44 And Saul said, God do so [to me] and more also; thou shalt certainly die, Jonathan.
Então disse Saul: Assim me faça Deus, e outro tanto, que com certeza morrerás, Jonathan.
45 And the people said to Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who has wrought this great salvation in Israel? Far be it! [as] Jehovah liveth, there shall not a hair of his head fall to the ground; for he has wrought with God this day. So the people delivered Jonathan, that he died not.
Porém o povo disse a Saul: Morrerá Jonathan, que obrou tão grande salvação em Israel? nunca tal succeda; vive o Senhor, que não lhe ha de cair no chão um só cabello da sua cabeça! pois com Deus fez isso hoje. Assim o povo livrou a Jonathan, para que não morresse.
46 And Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines went to their own place.
E Saul deixou de seguir os philisteos: e os philisteos se foram ao seu logar.
47 And Saul took the kingdom over Israel, and fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines; and whithersoever he turned himself, he discomfited [them].
Então tomou Saul o reino sobre Israel; e pelejou contra todos os seus inimigos em redor: contra Moab, e contra os filhos de Ammon, e contra Edom, e contra os reis de Zoba, e contra os philisteos, e para onde quer que se tornava executava castigos.
48 And he did valiantly, and smote the Amalekites, and delivered Israel out of the hands of their spoilers.
E houve-se valorosamente, e feriu aos amalekitas: e libertou a Israel da mão dos que o saqueavam.
49 And the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Jishvi, and Malchi-shua. And the names of his two daughters: the name of the firstborn Merab, and the name of the younger Michal.
E os filhos de Saul eram Jonathan, e Isvi, e Malchisua: e os nomes de suas duas filhas eram estes: o nome da mais velha Merab, e o nome da mais nova, Michal.
50 And the name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of the captain of his host was Abner, the son of Ner, Saul's uncle.
E o nome da mulher de Saul, Ahinoam, filha d'Ahimaas: e o nome do general do exercito, Abner, filho de Ner, tio de Saul.
51 And Kish the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner were sons of Abiel.
E Kis, pae de Saul, e Ner, pae d'Abner, eram filhos d'Abiel.
52 And there was sore war against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man, or any valiant man, he took him to himself.
E houve uma forte guerra contra os philisteos, todos os dias de Saul: pelo que Saul a todos os homens valentes e valorosos que via os aggregava a si.
