Joshua 7
1 But the children of Israel committed unfaithfulness in that which had been brought under the curse: Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took of the accursed thing; and the anger of Jehovah was kindled against the children of Israel.
E trespassaram os filhos de Israel no anátema: porque Acan, filho de Carmi, filho de Zabdi, filho de Sera, da tribo de Judá, tomou do anátema, e a ira do Senhor se acendeu contra os filhos de Israel.
2 And Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is beside Beth-Aven, on the east side of Bethel, and spoke to them, saying, Go up and spy out the country. And the men went up and spied out Ai.
Enviando pois Josué de Jericó, alguns homens a Hai, que está junto a Bethaven, da banda do oriente de bethel, falou-lhes, dizendo: Subi, e espiai a terra. Subiram pois aqueles homens, e espiaram a Hai.
3 And they returned to Joshua, and said to him, Let not all the people go up; let about two or three thousand men go up and smite Ai; make not all the people to toil thither, for they are few.
E voltaram a Josué, e disseram-lhe: Não suba todo o povo; subam alguns dois mil, ou três mil homens, a ferir a Hai: não fatigues ali a todo o povo, porque poucos são.
4 And there went up thither of the people about three thousand men, but they fled before the men of Ai.
Assim, subiram lá do povo alguns três mil homens, os quais fugiram diante dos homens de Dai.
5 And the men of Ai smote of them about thirty-six men; and they pursued them from before the gate to Shebarim, and smote them on the descent. Then the hearts of the people melted, and became as water.
E os homens de Hai feriram deles alguns trinta e seis, e seguiram-nos desde a porta até Shebarim, e feriram-nos na descida; e o coração do povo se derreteu e se tornou como água.
6 And Joshua rent his clothes, and fell to the earth upon his face before the ark of Jehovah until the evening, he and the elders of Israel, and threw dust upon their heads.
Então Josué rasgou os seus vestidos, e se prostrou em terra sobre o seu rosto perante a arca do Senhor até à tarde, ele e os anciãos de Israel: e deitaram pó sobre as suas cabeças.
7 And Joshua said, Alas, Lord Jehovah, wherefore hast thou at all brought this people over the Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us? Oh that we had been content and had remained beyond the Jordan!
E disse Josué: Ah Senhor Jehovah! porque, com efeito, fizeste passar a este povo o Jordão, para nos dares nas mãos dos amorreus, para nos fazerem perecer? oxalá nos contentaramos com ficarmos de além do Jordão.
8 Ah Lord! what shall I say after Israel have turned their backs before their enemies?
Ah Senhor! que direi? pois Israel virou as costas diante dos seus inimigos!
9 When the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land shall hear [of it], they will surround us, and cut off our name from the earth. And what wilt thou do unto thy great name?
Ouvindo isto, os cananeus, e todos os moradores da terra, nos cercarão e desarreigarão o nosso nome da terra: e então que farás ao teu grande nome?
10 And Jehovah said to Joshua, Rise up; wherefore liest thou thus upon thy face?
Então disse o Senhor a Josué: Levanta-te: porque estás prostrado assim sobre o teu rosto?
11 Israel hath sinned, and they have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them, and they have even taken of the accursed thing, and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and they have put it among their stuff.
Israel pecou, e até transgrediram o meu concerto que lhes tinha ordenado, e até tomaram do anátema, e também furtaram, e também mentiram, e até debaixo da sua bagagem o puseram.
12 And the children of Israel shall not be able to stand before their enemies: they shall turn their backs before their enemies, for they have made themselves accursed. I will no more be with you, except ye destroy the accursed thing from your midst.
Pelo que os filhos de Israel não puderam subsistir perante os seus inimigos: viraram as costas diante dos seus inimigos; porquanto estão amaldiçoados: não serei mais convosco, se não desarreigardes o anátema do meio de vós.
13 Rise up, hallow the people, and say, Hallow yourselves for to-morrow; for thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel, There is an accursed thing in the midst of thee, Israel: thou shalt not be able to stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the accursed thing from your midst.
Levanta-te, santifica o povo, e dize: santificai-vos para amanhã, porque assim diz o Senhor, o Deus de Israel: anátema há no meio de ti, Israel: diante dos teus inimigos não poderás suster-te, até que não tires o anátema do meio de vós.
14 And ye shall be brought near in the morning according to your tribes; and it shall be, that the tribe which Jehovah taketh shall come forward by families, and the family which Jehovah taketh shall come forward by households; and the household which Jehovah taketh shall come forward man by man.
Amanhã pois vos chegareis, segundo as vossas tribos: e será que a tribo que o Senhor tomar se chegará, segundo as famílias; e a família que o Senhor tomar se chegará por casas; e a casa que o Senhor tomar se chegará homem por homem
15 And it shall be, that he who is taken with the accursed thing shall be burned with fire, he and all that he hath, because he hath transgressed the covenant of Jehovah, and because he hath wrought wickedness in Israel.
E será que aquele que for tomado com o anátema será queimado a fogo, ele e tudo quanto tiver: porquanto transgrediu o concerto do Senhor, e fez uma loucura em Israel.
16 And Joshua rose early in the morning, and caused Israel to come forward by their tribes, and the tribe of Judah was taken.
Então Josué se levantou de madrugada, e fez chegar a Israel, segundo as suas tribos: e a tribo de Judá foi tomada:
17 And he caused the families of Judah to come forward, and he took the family of the Zarhites. And he caused the family of the Zarhites to come forward man by man, and Zabdi was taken.
E, fazendo chegar a tribo de Judá, tomou a família de Zarchi: e, fazendo chegar a família de Zarchi, homem por homem, foi tomado Zabdi:
18 And he caused his household to come forward man by man, and Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken.
E, fazendo chegar a sua casa, homem por homem, foi tomado Acan, filho de Carmi, filho de Zabdi, filho de Serah, da tribo de Judá.
19 And Joshua said to Achan, My son, give, I pray thee, glory to Jehovah the God of Israel, and make confession to him: tell me now what thou hast done, keep it not back from me.
Então disse Josué a Acan: Filho meu, dá, peço-te, glória ao Senhor Deus de Israel, e faze confissão perante ele; e declara-me agora o que fizeste, não mo ocultes.
20 And Achan answered Joshua and said, Indeed I have sinned against Jehovah the God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done.
E respondeu Acan a Josué, e disse: Verdadeiramente pequei contra o Senhor Deus de Israel, e fiz assim e assim.
21 I saw among the spoils a beautiful mantle of Shinar, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a golden bar of fifty shekels weight, and I coveted them and took them; and behold, they are hid in the earth in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.
Quando vi entre os despojos uma boa capa Babilônica, e duzentos siclos de prata, e uma cunha de ouro do peso de cincoênta siclos, cobicei-os e tomei-os: e eis que estão escondidos na terra, no meio da minha tenda, e a prata debaixo dela.
22 And Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent, and behold, it was hid in his tent, and the silver under it.
Então Josué enviou mensageiros, que foram correndo à tenda: e eis que estava escondido na sua tenda, e a prata debaixo dela.
23 And they took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them to Joshua and to all the children of Israel, and laid them out before Jehovah.
Tomaram pois aquelas coisas do meio da tenda, e as trouxeram a Josué e a todos os filhos de Israel: e as deitaram perante o Senhor.
24 Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the mantle, and the bar of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had; and they brought them up into the valley of Achor.
Então Josué e todo o Israel com ele tomaram a Acan, filho de Serah, e a prata, e a capa, e a cunha de ouro, e a seus filhos, e a suas filhas, e a seus bois, e a seus jumentos, e a suas ovelhas, e a sua tenda, e a tudo quanto tinha: e levaram-nos ao vale de Acor.
25 And Joshua said, How hast thou troubled us! Jehovah will trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones; and they burned them with fire, and stoned them with stones.
E disse Josué: Como nos turbaste? o Senhor te turbará a ti este dia. E todo o Israel o apedrejou com pedras, e os queimaram a fogo, e os apedrejaram com pedras.
26 And they raised over him a great heap of stones, [which is there] to this day. And Jehovah turned from the fierceness of his anger. Therefore the name of that place was called, The Valley of Achor, to this day.
E levantaram sobre ele um grande montão de pedras, até o dia de hoje; assim o Senhor se tornou do ardor da sua ira: pelo que se chamou o nome daquele lugar o vale de Acor, até ao dia de hoje.
