1 Samuel 19
1 AND Saul spake to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David.
E falou Saul a Jonathan, seu filho, e a todos os seus servos, para que matassem a David. Porém Jonathan, filho de Saul, estava mui afeiçoado a David.
2 But Jonathan Saul’s son delighted much in David: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee: now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself until the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself:
E Jonathan o anunciou a David, dizendo: Meu pai, Saul, procura matar-te, pelo que agora guarda-te pela manhã, e fica-te em oculto, e esconde-te.
3 And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and I will commune with my father of thee; and what I see, that I will tell thee.
E sairei eu, e estarei à mão de meu pai no campo em que estiveres, e eu falarei de ti a meu pai, e verei o que houver, e to anunciarei.
4 And Jonathan spake good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works have been to thee-ward very good:
Então Jonathan falou bem de David a Saul, seu pai, e disse-lhe: Não peque o rei contra seu servo David, porque ele não pecou contra ti, e porque os seus feitos te são mui bons.
5 For he did put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou sawest it, and didst rejoice: wherefore then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?
Porque pôs a sua alma na mão, e feriu aos philisteus, e fez o Senhor um grande livramento a todo o Israel; tu mesmo o viste, e te alegraste: porque, pois, pecarias contra o sangue inocente, matando a David sem causa?
6 And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan: and Saul sware, As the Lord liveth, he shall not be slain.
E Saul deu ouvidos à voz de Jonathan, e jurou Saul: Vive o Senhor, que não morrerá.
7 And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan shewed him all those things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.
E Jonathan chamou a David, e contou-lhe todas estas palavras: e Jonathan levou David a Saul, e esteve perante ele como de antes.
8 And there was war again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and they fled from him.
E tornou a haver guerra: e saiu David, e pelejou contra os philisteus, e feriu-os de grande ferida, e fugiram diante dele.
9 And the evil spirit from the Lord was upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his javelin in his hand: and David played with his hand.
Porém o espírito mau da parte do Senhor se tornou sobre Saul, estando ele assentado em sua casa, e tendo na mão a sua lança, e tangendo David com a mão o instrumento de música.
10 And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the javelin; but he slipped away out of Saul’s presence, and he smote the javelin into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.
E procurava Saul encravar a David com a parede, porém ele se desviou de diante de Saul, o qual feriu com a lança na parede: então fugiu David, e escapou naquela mesma noite.
11 Saul also sent messengers unto David’s house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal David’s wife told him, saying, If thou save not thy life to night, to morrow thou shalt be slain.
Porém Saul mandou mensageiros à casa de David, que o guardassem, e o matassem pela manhã: do que Michal, sua mulher, avisou a David, dizendo: Se não salvares a tua vida esta noite, amanhã te matarão.
12 So Michal let David down through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
Então Michal desceu a David por uma janela: e ele se foi, e fugiu, e escapou.
13 And Michal took an image, and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats’ hair for his bolster, and covered it with a cloth.
E Michal tomou uma estátua e a deitou na cama, e pôs-lhe à cabeceira uma pele de cabra, e a cobriu com uma coberta.
14 And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick.
E, mandando Saul mensageiros que trouxessem a David, ela disse: Está doente.
15 And Saul sent the messengers again to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may slay him.
Então Saul mandou mensageiros que viessem a David, dizendo: trazei-mo na cama, para que o mate.
16 And when the messengers were come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats’ hair for his bolster.
Vindo pois os mensageiros, eis aqui a estátua na cama, e a pele de cabra à sua cabeceira.
17 And Saul said unto Michal, Why hast thou deceived me so, and sent away mine enemy, that he is escaped? And Michal answered Saul, He said unto me, Let me go; why should I kill thee?
Então disse Saul a Michal: Porque assim me enganaste, e deixaste ir e escapar o meu inimigo? E disse Michal a Saul: Porque ele me disse: Deixa-me ir, porque hei de eu matar-te?
18 So David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.
Assim David fugiu e escapou, e veio a Samuel, a Rama, e lhe participou tudo quanto Saul lhe fizera: e foram, ele e Samuel, e ficaram em Naioth.
19 And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.
E o anunciaram a Saul, dizendo: Eis que David está em Naioth, em Rama.
20 And Saul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as appointed over them, the Spirit of God was upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
Então enviou Saul mensageiros para trazerem a David, os quais viram uma congregação de profetas profetizando, onde estava Samuel que presidia sobre eles: e o espírito de Deus veio sobre os mensageiros de Saul, e também eles profetizaram.
21 And when it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also.
E, avisado disto Saul, enviou outros mensageiros, e também estes profetizaram: então enviou Saul ainda uns terceiros mensageiros, os quais também profetizaram.
22 Then went he also to Ramah, and came to a great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, Behold, they be at Naioth in Ramah.
Então foi também ele mesmo a Rama, e chegou ao poço grande que estava em Secu; e, perguntando, disse: Onde estão Samuel e David? E disseram-lhe: Eis que estão em Naioth, em Rama.
23 And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah: and the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
Então foi-se lá para Naioth, em Rama: e o mesmo espírito de Deus veio sobre ele, e ia profetizando, até chegar a Naioth, em Rama.
24 And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Wherefore they say, Is Saul also among the prophets?
E ele também despiu os seus vestidos, e ele também profetizou diante de Samuel, e esteve nu por terra todo aquele dia e toda aquela noite; pelo que se diz: Está também Saul entre os profetas?
