2 Samuel 23
1 Now these are the last words of David: The saying of David the son of Jesse, and the saying of the man raised on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet singer of Israel:
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 the LORD spoke by me, and His word was upon 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: 'Ruler over men shall be the righteous, even he that ruleth 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 as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; when through clear shining after rain, the tender grass springeth out of 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 For is not my house established with God? for an everlasting covenant He hath made with me, ordered in all things, and sure; for all my salvation, and all my desire, will he not make it 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 ungodly, they are as thorns thrust away, all of them, for they cannot be taken with the hand;
Porém os filhos de Belial todos serão como os espinhos que se lançam fóra, porque se lhes não pode pegar com a mão.
7 But the man that toucheth them must be armed 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: Josheb-basshebeth a Tahchemonite, chief of the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite; he lifted up his spear against eight hundred, whom he slew 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 was Eleazar the son of Dodo the son of an Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David, when they jeoparded their lives against the Philistines that were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away;
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 stood firm, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand did cleave unto the sword; and the LORD wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to strip the slain.
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 was Shammah the son of Age the Ararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was a plot of ground full of lentils; and the people fled from 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 But he stood in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and slew the Philistines; and the LORD wrought a great victory.
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 chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam; and the troop of the Philistines were 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 garrison of the Philistines was then in Beth-lehem.
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 water to drink of the well of Beth-lehem, which is by 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 host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Beth-lehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David; but he would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto the LORD.
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, O LORD, that I should do this; shall I drink the blood of the men that went in jeopardy 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 chief of the three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred and slew them, and 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 He was most honourable of the three; therefore he was made their captain; howbeit he attained not unto 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, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, he smote the two altar-hearths of Moab; he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow;
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 and he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man; and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but 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 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 more honourable than the thirty, but he attained not to the first three. And David set him over his guard.
D'entre os trinta elle era o mais nobre, porém aos tres primeiros não chegou: e David o poz sobre os seus guardas.
