1 Samuel 7
1 Then the men of Kiriath-iearim came, and tooke vp the Arke of the Lord, and brought it into the house of Abinadab in the hill: and they sanctified Eleazar his sonne, to keepe the Arke of the Lord.
Então vieram os homens de Kiriath-jearim, e levaram a arca do Senhor, e a trouxeram á casa de Abinadab, no outeiro: e consagraram a Eleazar, seu filho, para que guardasse a arca do Senhor.
2 (For while the Arke abode in Kiriath-iearim, the time was long, for it was twentie yeeres) and al the house of Israel lamented after ye Lord.
E succedeu que, desde aquelle dia, a arca ficou em Kiriath-jearim, e tantos dias se passaram que até chegaram vinte annos, e lamentava toda a casa de Israel após do Senhor.
3 Then Samuel spake vnto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye be come againe vnto the Lord with all your heart, put away the strange gods from among you, and Ashtaroth, and direct your hearts vnto the Lord, and serue him only, and he shall deliuer you out of the hand of ye Philistims.
Então fallou Samuel a toda a casa de Israel, dizendo: Se com todo o vosso coração vos converterdes ao Senhor, tirae d'entre vós os deuses estranhos e os astaroths, e preparae o vosso coração ao Senhor, e servi a elle só, e vos livrará da mão dos philisteos.
4 Then the children of Israel did put away Baalim and Ashtaroth, and serued the Lord onely.
Então os filhos de Israel tiraram d'entre si aos baalins e aos astaroths, e serviram só ao Senhor.
5 And Samuel said, Gather all Israel to Mizpeh, and I will pray for you vnto the Lord.
Disse mais Samuel: Congregae a todo o Israel em Mispah: e orarei por vós ao Senhor.
6 And they gathered together to Mizpeh, and drewe water and powred it out before the Lord, and fasted the same day, and sayd there, We haue sinned against the Lord. And Samuel iudged the children of Israel in Mizpeh.
E congregaram-se em Mispah, e tiraram agua, e a derramaram perante o Senhor, e jejuaram aquelle dia, e disseram ali: Peccámos contra o Senhor. E julgava Samuel os filhos de Israel em Mispah.
7 When the Philistims heard that the children of Israel were gathered together to Mizpeh, the princes of the Philistims went vp against Israel: and when the children of Israel heard that, they were afraide of the Philistims.
Ouvindo pois os philisteos que os filhos d'Israel estavam congregados em Mispah, subiram os maioraes dos philisteos contra Israel: o que ouvindo os filhos de Israel, temeram por causa dos philisteos.
8 And the children of Israel sayd to Samuel, Cease not to crie vnto the Lord our God for vs, that hee may saue vs out of the hand of the Philistims.
Pelo que disseram os filhos d'Israel a Samuel: Não cesses de clamar ao Senhor nosso Deus por nós, para que nos livre da mão dos philisteos.
9 Then Samuel tooke a sucking lambe, and offered it all together for a burnt offering vnto the Lord, and Samuel cryed vnto the Lord for Israel, and the Lord heard him.
Então tomou Samuel um cordeiro de mama, e sacrificou-o inteiro em holocausto ao Senhor: e clamou Samuel ao Senhor por Israel, e o Senhor lhe deu ouvidos.
10 And as Samuel offered the burnt offering, the Philistims came to fight against Israel: but the Lord thundred with a great thunder that day vpon the Philistims, and scattered them: so they were slaine before Israel.
E succedeu que, estando Samuel sacrificando o holocausto, os philisteos chegaram á peleja contra Israel: e trovejou o Senhor aquelle dia com grande trovoada sobre os philisteos, e os aterrou de tal modo que foram derrotados diante dos filhos d'Israel.
11 And the men of Israel went from Mizpeh and pursued the Philistims, and smote them vntill they came vnder Beth-car.
E os homens d'Israel sairam de Mispah, e perseguiram os philisteos, e os feriram até abaixo de Beth-car.
12 Then Samuel tooke a stone and pitched it betweene Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name thereof, Eben-ezer, and he sayd, Hitherto hath the Lord holpen vs.
Então tomou Samuel uma pedra, e a poz entre Mispah e Sen, e chamou o seu nome Eben-ezer: e disse: Até aqui nos ajudou o Senhor.
13 So the Philistims were brought vnder, and they came no more againe into the coastes of Israel: and the hand of the Lord was against the Philistims all the dayes of Samuel.
Assim os philisteos foram abatidos, e nunca mais vieram aos termos d'Israel, porquanto foi a mão do Senhor contra os philisteos todos os dias de Samuel.
14 Also the cities which the Philistims had taken from Israel, were restored to Israel, from Ekron euen to Gath: and Israel deliuered the coastes of the same out of the hands of the Philistims: and there was peace betweene Israel and the Amorites.
E as cidades que os philisteos tinham tomado a Israel foram restituidas a Israel, desde Ekron até Gath, e até os seus termos Israel arrebatou da mão dos philisteos; e houve paz entre Israel e entre os amorrheos.
15 And Samuel iudged Israel all the dayes of his life,
E Samuel julgou a Israel todos os dias da sua vida.
16 And went about yeere by yere to Beth-el, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and iudged Israel in all those places.
E ia de anno, em anno, e rodeava a Beth-el, e a Gilgal, e a Mispah, e julgava a Israel em todos aquelles logares.
17 Afterward hee returned to Ramah: for there was his house, and there he iudged Israel: also he built an altar there vnto the Lord.
Porém voltava a Rama, porque estava ali a sua casa, e ali julgava a Israel: e edificou ali um altar ao Senhor.
