< 1 Samuel 30 >
1 Bvt when Dauid and his men were come to Ziklag the thirde day, the Amalekites had inuaded vpon the South, euen vnto Ziklag, and had smitten Ziklag, and burnt it with fire,
Succedeu pois que, chegando David e os seus homens ao terceiro dia a Siclag, já os amalekitas com impeto tinham dado sobre o sul, e sobre Siclag, e tinham ferido a Siclag e a tinham queimado a fogo.
2 And had taken the women that were therein, prisoners, both small and great, and slewe not a man, but caryed them away, and went their wayes.
E as mulheres que estavam n'ella levaram captivas, porém a ninguem mataram, nem pequenos nem grandes; tão sómente os levaram comsigo, e foram pelo seu caminho.
3 So Dauid and his men came to the city, and beholde, it was burnt with fire, and their wiues, and their sonnes, and their daughters were taken prisoners.
E David e os seus homens vieram á cidade, e eis que estava queimada a fogo, e suas mulheres, seus filhos e suas filhas eram levados captivos.
4 Then Dauid and the people that was with him, lift vp their voyces and wept, vntill they could weepe no more.
Então David e o povo que se achava com elle alçaram a sua voz, e choraram, até que n'elles não houve mais força para chorar.
5 Dauids two wiues were taken prisoners also, Ahinoam the Izreelite, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
Tambem as duas mulheres de David foram levadas captivas; Achinoam, a jizreelita, e Abigail, a mulher de Nabal, o carmelita.
6 And Dauid was in great sorowe: for the people entended to stone him, because the heartes of all the people were vexed euery man for his sonnes and for his daughters: but Dauid comforted him selfe in the Lord his God.
E David muito se angustiou, porque o povo fallava de apedrejal-o, porque o animo de todo o povo estava em amargura, cada um por causa dos seus filhos e das suas filhas: todavia David se esforçou no Senhor seu Deus.
7 And Dauid saide to Abiathar the Priest Ahimelechs sonne, I pray thee, bring me the Ephod. And Abiathar brought the Ephod to Dauid.
E disse David a Abiathar, o sacerdote, filho de Achimelech: Traze-me, peço-te, aqui o ephod. E Abiathar trouxe o ephod a David.
8 Then Dauid asked counsell at the Lord, saying, Shall I follow after this companie? shall I ouertake them? And he answered him, Followe: for thou shalt surely ouertake them, and recouer all.
Então consultou David ao Senhor, dizendo: Perseguirei eu a esta tropa? alcançal-a-hei? E o Senhor lhe disse: Persegue-a, porque decerto a alcançarás, e tudo libertarás.
9 So Dauid and the sixe hundreth men that were with him, went, and came to the riuer Besor, where a part of them abode:
Partiu pois David, elle e os seiscentos homens que com elle se achavam, e chegaram ao ribeiro de Besor, onde os que ficaram atraz pararam.
10 But Dauid and foure hundreth men followed (for two hundreth abode behinde, being too wearie to goe ouer the riuer Besor)
E seguiu-os David, elle e os quatrocentos homens, pois que duzentos homens ficaram, por não poderem, de cançados que estavam, passar o ribeiro de Besor.
11 And they found an Egyptian in the fielde, and brought him to Dauid, and gaue him bread and he did eat, and they gaue him water to drinke.
E acharam no campo um homem egypcio, e o trouxeram a David: deram-lhe pão, e comeu, e deram-lhe a beber agua.
12 Also they gaue him a fewe figges, and two clusters of raisins: and when he had eaten, his spirite came againe to him: for he had eaten no bread, nor drunke any water in three dayes, and three nightes.
Deram-lhe tambem um pedaço de massa de figos seccos e dois cachos de passas, e comeu, e voltou-lhe o seu espirito, porque havia tres dias e tres noites que não tinha comido pão nem bebido agua.
13 And Dauid saide vnto him, To whome belongest thou? and whence art thou? And he saide, I am a yong man of Egypt, and seruant to an Amalekite: and my master left me three dayes agoe, because I fell sicke.
Então David lhe disse: De quem és tu, e d'onde és? E disse o moço egypcio: Sou servo d'um homem amalekita, e meu senhor me deixou, porque adoeci ha tres dias.
14 We roued vpon the South of Chereth, and vpon the coast belonging to Iudah, and vpon the South of Caleb, and we burnt Ziklag with fire.
Nós démos com impeto para a banda do sul dos cherethitas, e para a banda de Judah, e para a banda do sul de Caleb, e pozemos fogo a Siclag.
15 And Dauid saide vnto him, Canst thou bring me to this companie? And he said, Sweare vnto me by God, that thou wilt neither kill me, nor deliuer me into the handes of my master, and I will bring thee to this companie.
E disse-lhe David: Poderias, descendo, guiar-me a essa tropa? E disse-lhe: Por Deus me jura que me não matarás, nem me entregarás na mão de meu senhor, e, descendo, te guiare a essa tropa.
16 And when he had brought him thither, beholde, they lay scattered abroade vpon all the earth, eating and drinking, and dauncing, because of all the great pray that they had taken out of the lande of the Philistims, and out of the land of Iudah.
E, descendo, o guiou e eis que estavam espalhados sobre a face de toda a terra, comendo, e bebendo, e dançando, por todo aquelle grande despojo que tomaram da terra dos philisteos e da terra de Judah.
17 And Dauid smote them from the twilight, euen vnto the euening of the next morowe, so that there escaped not a man of them, saue foure hundreth yong men, which rode vpon camels, and fled.
E feriu-os David, desde o crepusculo até á tarde do dia seguinte, e nenhum d'elles escapou, senão só quatrocentos mancebos que, montados sobre camelos, fugiram.
18 And Dauid recouered all that the Amalekites had taken: also Dauid rescued his two wiues.
Assim livrou David tudo quanto tomaram aos amalekitas: tambem as suas duas mulheres livrou David.
19 And they lacked nothing, small or great, sonne or daughter, or of the spoyle of all that they had taken away: Dauid recouered them all.
E ninguem lhes faltou, desde o menor até ao maior, e até os filhos e as filhas; e tambem desde o despojo até tudo quanto lhes tinham tomado, tudo David tornou a trazer.
20 Dauid also tooke all the sheepe, and the oxen, and they draue them before his cattell, and said, This is Dauids pray.
Tambem tomou David todas as ovelhas e vaccas, e levavam-n'as diante do outro gado, e diziam: Este é o despojo de David.
21 And Dauid came to the two hundreth men that were too wearie for to follow Dauid: whome they had made also to abide at the riuer Besor: and they came to meete Dauid, and to meete the people that were with him: so when Dauid came neere to the people, hee saluted them.
E, chegando David aos duzentos homens que, de cançados que estavam, não poderam seguir a David, e que deixaram ficar no ribeiro de Besor, estes sairam ao encontro de David e do povo que com elle vinha: e, chegando-se David ao povo, os saudou em paz.
22 Then answered all the euill and wicked of the men that went with Dauid, and saide, Because they went not with vs, therefore will wee giue them none of the pray that wee haue recouered, saue to euery man his wife and his children: therefore let them carie them away and depart.
Então todos os maus, e filhos de Belial, d'entre os homens que tinham ido com David, responderam, e disseram: Visto que não foram comnosco, não lhes daremos do despojo que libertámos; mas que leve cada um sua mulher e seus filhos, e se vá.
23 Then saide Dauid, Yee shall not doe so, my brethren, with that which the Lord hath giuen vs, who hath preserued vs, and deliuered the companie that came against vs, into our handes.
Porém David disse: Não fareis assim, irmãos meus, com o que nos deu o Senhor, que nos guardou, e entregou a tropa que contra nós vinha nas nossas mãos.
24 For who will obey you in this matter? but as his part is that goeth downe to the battel, so shall his part be, that tarieth by the stuffe: they shall part alike.
E quem a tal vos daria ouvidos? porque qual é a parte dos que desceram á peleja, tal tambem será a parte dos que ficaram com a bagagem; egualmente repartirão.
25 So from that day forward hee made it a statute and a lawe in Israel, vntill this day.
O que assim foi desde aquelle dia em diante, porquanto o poz por estatuto e direito em Israel até ao dia de hoje.
26 When Dauid therefore came to Ziklag, he sent of the pray vnto the Elders of Iudah and to his friends, saying, See there is a blessing for you of the spoyle of the enemies of the Lord.
E, chegando David a Siclag, enviou do despojo aos anciãos de Judah, seus amigos, dizendo: Eis ahi para vós uma benção do despojo dos inimigos do Senhor;
27 Hee sent to them of Beth-el, and to them of South Ramoth, and to them of Iattir,
Aos de Beth-el, e aos de Ramoth do sul, e aos de Jatter,
28 And to them of Aroer, and to them of Siphmoth, and to them of Eshtemoa,
E aos d'Aroer, e aos de Siphmoth, e aos d'Esthemoa,
29 And to them of Rachal, and to them of the cities of the Ierahmeelites, and to them of the cities of the Kenites,
E aos de Rachal, e aos que estavam nas cidades jerahmeelitas e nas cidades dos keneos,
30 And to them of Hormah, and to them of Chor-ashan, and to them of Athach,
E aos d'Horma, e aos de Corasan, e aos d'Athak,
31 And to them of Hebron, and to all the places where Dauid and his men had hanted.
E aos d'Hebron, e a todos os logares em que andara David, elle e os seus homens.
