1 Samuel 18
1 And it comes to pass, when he finishes to speak to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan has been bound to the soul of David, and Jonathan loves him as his own soul.
E succedeu que, acabando elle de fallar com Saul, a alma de Jonathan se ligou com a alma de David: e Jonathan o amou, como á sua propria alma.
2 And Saul takes him on that day, and has not permitted him to return to the house of his father.
E Saul n'aquelle dia o tomou, e não lhe permittiu que tornasse para casa de seu pae.
3 And Jonathan makes—David also—a covenant, because he loves him as his own soul,
E Jonathan e David fizeram alliança: porque Jonathan o amava como á sua propria alma.
4 and Jonathan strips himself of the upper robe which [is] on him, and gives it to David, and his long robe, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
E Jonathan se despojou da capa que trazia sobre si, e a deu a David, como tambem os seus vestidos, até a sua espada, e o seu arco, e o seu cinto.
5 And David goes out wherever Saul sends him; he acted wisely, and Saul sets him over the men of war, and it is good in the eyes of all the people, and also in the eyes of the servants of Saul.
E sahia David aonde quer que Saul o enviava, e conduzia-se com prudencia, e Saul o poz sobre a gente de guerra: e era acceito aos olhos de todo o povo, e até aos olhos dos servos de Saul.
6 And it comes to pass, in their coming in, in David’s returning from striking the Philistine, that the women come out from all the cities of Israel to sing—also the dancers—to meet Saul the king, with tambourines, with joy, and with three-stringed instruments;
Succedeu porém que, vindo elles, quando David voltava de ferir os philisteos, as mulheres de todas as cidades de Israel sairam ao encontro do rei Saul, cantando, e em danças, com adufes, com alegria, e com instrumentos de musica.
7 and the women answer—those playing, and say, “Saul has struck among his thousands, And David among his myriads.”
E as mulheres tangendo, se respondiam umas ás outras, e diziam: Saul feriu os seus milhares, porém David os seus dez milhares.
8 And it is exceedingly displeasing to Saul, and this thing is evil in his eyes, and he says, “They have given myriads to David, and they have given the thousands to me, and what more [is there] for him but the kingdom?”
Então Saul se indignou muito, e aquella palavra pareceu mal aos seus olhos, e disse: Dez milhares deram a David, e a mim sómente milhares; na verdade, que lhe falta, senão só o reino?
9 And Saul is eyeing David from that day and from then on.
E, desde aquelle dia em diante, Saul tinha David em suspeita.
10 And it comes to pass, on the next day, that the spirit of sadness [from] God prospers over Saul, and he prophesies in the midst of the house, and David is playing with his hand, as [he did] day by day, and the javelin [is] in the hand of Saul,
E aconteceu ao outro dia, que o mau espirito da parte de Deus se apoderou de Saul, e prophetizava no meio da casa: e David tangia com a sua mão, como de dia em dia: Saul porém tinha na mão uma lança.
11 and Saul casts the javelin and says, “I strike through David, even through the wall”; and David turns around out of his presence twice.
E Saul atirou com a lança, dizendo: Encravarei a David na parede. Porém David se desviou d'elle por duas vezes.
12 And Saul is afraid of the presence of David, for YHWH has been with him, and He has turned aside from Saul;
E temia Saul a David, porque o Senhor era com elle e se tinha retirado de Saul.
13 and Saul turns him aside from him, and appoints him to himself [for] head of one thousand, and he goes out and comes in, before the people.
Pelo que Saul o desviou de si, e o poz por chefe de mil: e sahia e entrava diante do povo.
14 And David is acting wisely in all his ways, and YHWH [is] with him,
E David se conduzia com prudencia em todos os seus caminhos, e o Senhor era com elle.
15 and Saul sees that he is acting very wisely, and is afraid of him,
Vendo então Saul que tão prudentemente se conduzia, tinha receio d'elle.
16 and all Israel and Judah love David when he is going out and coming in before them.
Porém todo o Israel e Judah amava a David, porquanto sahia e entrava diante d'elles.
17 And Saul says to David, “Behold, my elder daughter Merab—I give her to you for a wife; only, be for a son of valor to me, and fight the battles of YHWH”; and Saul said, “Do not let my hand be on him, but let the hand of the Philistines be on him.”
Pelo que Saul disse a David: Eis que Merab, minha filha mais velha, te darei por mulher; sê-me somente filho valoroso, e guerreia as guerras do Senhor (porque Saul dizia comsigo: Não seja contra elle a minha mão, mas sim a dos philisteos).
18 And David says to Saul, “Who [am] I? And what [is] my life—the family of my father in Israel—that I am son-in-law of the king?”
Mas David disse a Saul: Quem sou eu, e qual é a minha vida e a familia de meu pae em Israel, para vir a ser genro do rei?
19 And it comes to pass, at the time of the giving of Merab daughter of Saul to David, that she has been given to Adriel the Meholathite for a wife.
Succedeu, porém, que ao tempo que Merab, filha de Saul, devia ser dada a David, ella foi dada por mulher a Adriel, meholathita.
20 And Michal daughter of Saul loves David, and they declare [it] to Saul, and the thing is right in his eyes,
Mas Michal, a outra filha de Saul amava a David: o que, sendo annunciado a Saul, pareceu isto bom aos seus olhos.
21 and Saul says, “I give her to him, and she is for a snare to him, and the hand of the Philistines is on him”; and Saul says to David, “By the second—you become my son-in-law today.”
E Saul disse: Eu lh'a darei, para que lhe sirva de laço, e para que a mão dos philisteos venha a ser contra elle. Pelo que Saul disse a David: Com a outra serás hoje meu genro.
22 And Saul commands his servants, “Speak to David gently, saying, Behold, the king has delighted in you, and all his servants have loved you, and now, be son-in-law of the king.”
E Saul deu ordem aos seus servos: Fallae em segredo a David, dizendo: Eis que o rei te está mui affeiçoado, e todos os seus servos te amam; agora, pois, consente em ser genro do rei.
23 And the servants of Saul speak these words in the ears of David, and David says, “Is it a light thing in your eyes to be son-in-law of the king—and I a poor man, and lightly esteemed?”
E os servos de Saul fallaram todas estas palavras aos ouvidos de David. Então disse David: Parece-vos pouco aos vossos olhos ser genro do rei, sendo eu homem pobre e desprezivel?
24 And the servants of Saul declare [it] to him, saying, “David has spoken according to these words.”
E os servos de Saul lhe annunciaram isto, dizendo: Foram taes as palavras que fallou David.
25 And Saul says, “Thus you say to David, There is no delight for the king in dowry, but in one hundred foreskins of the Philistines—to be avenged on the enemies of the king”; and Saul thought to cause David to fall by the hand of the Philistines.
Então disse Saul: Assim direis a David: O rei não tem necessidade de dote, senão de cem prepucios de philisteos, para se tomar vingança dos inimigos do rei. Porquanto Saul tentava fazer cair a David pela mão dos philisteos.
26 And his servants declare these words to David, and the thing is right in the eyes of David, to be son-in-law of the king; and the days have not been full,
E annunciaram os seus servos estas palavras a David, e este negocio pareceu bem aos olhos de David, de que fosse genro do rei: porém ainda os dias se não haviam cumprido.
27 and David rises and goes, he and his men, and strikes two hundred men among the Philistines, and David brings in their foreskins, and they set them before the king, to be son-in-law of the king; and Saul gives his daughter Michal to him for a wife.
Então David se levantou, e partiu elle com os seus homens, e feriram d'entre os philisteos duzentos homens, e David trouxe os seus prepucios, e os entregaram todos ao rei, para que fosse genro do rei: então Saul lhe deu por mulher a sua filha.
28 And Saul sees and knows that YHWH [is] with David, and Michal daughter of Saul has loved him,
E viu Saul, e notou que o Senhor era com David: e Michal, filha de Saul, o amava.
29 and Saul adds to be afraid of the presence of David still; and Saul is an enemy of David [for] all the days.
Então Saul temeu muito mais a David: e Saul foi todos os seus dias inimigo de David.
30 And the princes of the Philistines come out, and it comes to pass from the time of their coming out, David has acted more wisely than any of the servants of Saul, and his name is very precious.
E, saindo os principes dos philisteos, succedeu que, saindo elles, David se conduziu mais prudentemente do que todos os servos de Saul: portanto o seu nome era mui estimado.
