1 Samuel 31
1 Now the Philistims fought against Israel, and the me of Israel fled away from ye Philistims, and they fell downe wounded in mount Gilboa.
Now os filisteus lutaram contra Israel; e os homens de Israel fugiram de antes dos filisteus, e caíram mortos no Monte Gilboa.
2 And the Philistims preassed sore vpon Saul and his sonnes, and slewe Ionathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua Sauls sonnes.
os filisteus dominaram Saul e seus filhos; e os filisteus mataram Jonathan, Abinadab e Malchishua, os filhos de Saul.
3 And when the battel went sore against Saul, the archers and bowmen hit him, and hee was sore wounded of the archers.
A batalha foi dura contra Saul, e os arqueiros o dominaram; e ele ficou muito angustiado por causa dos arqueiros.
4 Then saide Saul vnto his armour bearer, Drawe out thy sworde, and thrust mee through therewith, lest the vncircumcised come and thrust me through and mocke me: but his armour bearer would not, for hee was sore afraid. Therefore Saul tooke a sworde and fell vpon it.
Então Saul disse a seu portador de armadura: “Tira tua espada, e me empurra com ela, para que estes incircuncisos não venham e me empurrem e abusem de mim”! Mas seu portador de armadura não o faria, pois ele estava aterrorizado. Por isso Saul pegou sua espada e caiu sobre ela.
5 And when his armour bearer sawe that Saul was dead, he fell likewise vpon his sword, and dyed with him.
Quando seu portador de armadura viu que Saul estava morto, ele também caiu sobre sua espada, e morreu com ele.
6 So Saul dyed, and his three sonnes, and his armour bearer, and all his men that same day together.
Assim, Saul morreu com seus três filhos, seu portador de armadura e todos os seus homens juntos naquele mesmo dia.
7 And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the valley, and they of the other side Iorden saw that the men of Israel were put to flight, and that Saul and his sonnes were dead, then they left the cities, and ran away: and the Philistims came and dwelt in them.
Quando os homens de Israel que estavam do outro lado do vale, e aqueles que estavam além do Jordão, viram que os homens de Israel fugiram e que Saul e seus filhos estavam mortos, abandonaram as cidades e fugiram; e os filisteus vieram e viveram nelas.
8 And on the morowe when the Philistims were come to spoyle them that were slaine, they founde Saul and his three sonnes lying in mount Gilboa,
No dia seguinte, quando os filisteus vieram para despojar os mortos, encontraram Saul e seus três filhos caídos no Monte Gilboa.
9 And they cut off his head, and stripped him out of his armour, and sent into the land of ye Philistims on euery side, that they should publish it in the temple of their idoles, and among the people.
Cortaram-lhe a cabeça, tiraram-lhe a armadura e mandaram para a terra dos filisteus por toda parte, para levar a notícia para a casa de seus ídolos e para o povo.
10 And they layed vp his armour in the house of Ashtaroth, but they hanged vp his body on the wall of Beth-shan.
Eles colocaram sua armadura na casa dos Ashtaroth, e prenderam seu corpo ao muro de Beth Shan.
11 When the inhabitants of Iabesh Gilead heard, what the Philistims had done to Saul,
Quando os habitantes de Jabesh Gilead ouviram o que os filisteus tinham feito a Saul,
12 Then they arose (as many as were strong men) and went all night, and tooke the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sonnes, from the wall of Beth-shan, and came to Iabesh, and burnt them there,
todos os homens valentes se levantaram, foram a noite toda e levaram o corpo de Saul e os corpos de seus filhos do muro de Beth Shan; e vieram a Jabesh e os queimaram lá.
13 And tooke their bones and buried them vnder a tree at Iabesh, and fasted seuen dayes.
Eles pegaram seus ossos e os enterraram sob a tamargueira em Jabesh, e jejuaram sete dias.
