< 2 Samuel 23 >
1 Now these are the last words of David: David the son of Jesse saith, And the man who was raised up on high, The anointed of the God of Jacob, And the sweet psalmist of Israel saith,
E estas são as ultimas palavras de David: Diz David, filho de Jessé, e diz o homem que foi levantado em altura, o ungido do Deus de Jacob, e o suave em psalmos d'Israel:
2 The Spirit of Jehovah spoke by me, And his word was on my tongue.
O espirito do Senhor fallou por mim, e a sua palavra esteve em minha bocca.
3 The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me, The ruler among men shall be just, Ruling in the fear of God;
Disse o Deus d'Israel, a Rocha d'Israel a mim me fallou: Haverá um justo que domine sobre os homens, que domine no temor de Deus.
4 And [he shall be] as the light of the morning, [like] the rising of the sun, A morning without clouds; [When] from the sunshine, after rain, The green grass springeth from the earth.
E será como a luz da manhã, quando sae o sol, da manhã sem nuvens, quando pelo seu resplandor e pela chuva a herva brota da terra.
5 Although my house be not so before God, Yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, Ordered in every way and sure; For [this is] all my salvation, and every desire, Although he make [it] not to grow.
Ainda que a minha casa não seja tal para com Deus, comtudo estabeleceu comigo um concerto eterno, que em tudo será bem ordenado e guardado, pois toda a minha salvação e todo o meu prazer está n'elle, apezar de que ainda não o faz brotar.
6 But [the sons] of Belial [are] all of them as thorns thrust away, Because they cannot be taken with hands;
Porém os filhos de Belial todos serão como os espinhos que se lançam fóra, porque se lhes não pode pegar com a mão.
7 And the man that will touch them provideth himself with iron and the staff of a spear; And they shall be utterly burned with fire in [their] place.
Mas qualquer que os tocar se armará de ferro e da haste de uma lança; e a fogo serão totalmente queimados no mesmo logar.
8 These are the names of the mighty men whom David had: Joseb-Bassebeth, Tachkemonite the chief of the captains: he was Adino the Eznite; he [fought] against eight hundred, slain [by him] at one time.
Estes são os nomes dos valentes que David teve: Joseb-bashebeth, filho de Tachemoni, o principal dos capitães: este era Adino, o esnita, que se oppozera a oitocentos, e os feriu d'uma vez.
9 And after him, Eleazar the son of Dodo the son of an Ahohite: he was one of the three mighty men with David, when they had defied the Philistines that were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone up.
E depois d'elle Eleazar, filho de Dodó, filho de Ahohi, entre os tres valentes que estavam com David quando provocaram os philisteos que ali se ajuntaram á peleja, e quando d'Israel os homens subiram.
10 He arose and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave to the sword; and Jehovah wrought a great deliverance that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil.
Este se levantou, e feriu os philisteos, até lhe cançar a mão e ficar a mão pegada á espada: e n'aquelle dia o Senhor obrou um grande livramento; e o povo voltou atraz d'elle, sómente a tomar o despojo.
11 And after him, Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite: the Philistines were gathered into a troop, and there was there a plot of ground full of lentils, and the people had fled before the Philistines;
E depois d'elle Samma, filho de Agé, o hararita, quando os philisteos se ajuntaram n'uma multidão, onde havia um pedaço de terra cheio de lentilhas, e o povo fugira de diante dos philisteos.
12 and he stood in the midst of the plot and delivered it, and smote the Philistines, and Jehovah wrought a great deliverance.
Este pois se poz no meio d'aquelle pedaço de terra, e o defendeu, e feriu os philisteos: e o Senhor obrou um grande livramento.
13 And three of the thirty chiefs went down, and came to David in the harvest time to the cave of Adullam, when the troop of the Philistines was encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
Tambem tres dos trinta cabeças desceram, e vieram no tempo da sega a David, á caverna de Adullam: e a multidão dos philisteos acampara no valle de Rephaim.
14 And David was then in the stronghold; and the Philistines' garrison was then at Bethlehem.
David estava então n'um logar forte, e a guarnição dos philisteos estava então em Beth-lehem.
15 And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me to drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, which is in the gate!
E teve David desejo, e disse: Quem me déra beber da agua da cisterna de Beth-lehem, que está junto á porta!
16 And the three mighty men broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, which is in the gate, and took it, and brought it to David; however he would not drink of it, but poured it out to Jehovah.
Então aquelles tres valentes romperam pelo arraial dos philisteos, e tiraram agua da cisterna de Beth-lehem, que está junto á porta, e a tomaram, e a trouxeram a David; porém elle não a quiz beber, mas derramou-a perante o Senhor,
17 And he said, Be it far from me, Jehovah, that I should do this thing! is it not the blood of the men that went at the risk of their lives? Therefore he would not drink it. These things did the three mighty men.
E disse: Guarda-me, ó Senhor, de que tal faça; beberia eu o sangue dos homens que foram a risco da sua vida? De maneira que não a quiz beber: isto fizeram aquelles tres valentes.
18 And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was the chief of three; and he brandished his spear against three hundred and slew them; and he had a name among the three.
Tambem Abisai, irmão de Joab, filho de Zeruia, era cabeça de tres; e este alçou a sua lança contra trezentos feridos: e tinha nome entre os tres.
19 Was he not most honourable of three? and he was their captain; but he did not attain to the [first] three.
Porventura este não era o mais nobre d'entre estes tres? pois era o primeiro d'elles; porém aos primeiros tres não chegou.
20 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, son of a valiant man, great in exploits, of Kabzeel: he it was that smote two lions of Moab; and he went down and smote a lion in the midst of a pit on a snowy day.
Tambem Benaia, filho de Joiada, filho d'um homem valoroso de Cabseel, grande em obras, este feriu dois fortes leões de Moab; e desceu elle, e feriu um leão no meio d'uma cova, no tempo da neve.
21 He also smote the Egyptian, an imposing man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; and he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.
Tambem este feriu um homem egypcio, homem de respeito: e na mão do egypcio havia uma lança, porém elle desceu a elle com um cajado, e arrancou a lança da mão do egypcio, e o matou com a sua propria lança.
22 These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he had a name among the three mighty men.
Estas coisas fez Benaia, filho de Joiada, pelo que teve nome entre tres valentes.
23 He was honoured above the thirty, but he did not attain to the [first] three. And David set him in his council.
D'entre os trinta elle era o mais nobre, porém aos tres primeiros não chegou: e David o poz sobre os seus guardas.
