< 2 Samuel 4 >

1 And the son of Saul hears that Abner [is] dead in Hebron, and his hands are feeble, and all of Israel has been troubled.
Logo que o filho de Saul ouviu que Abner havia sido morto em Hebrom, as mãos se lhe desconjuntaram, e todo Israel foi atemorizado.
2 And two men, heads of troops, have been [to] the son of Saul, the name of the first [is] Baanah, and the name of the second Rechab, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the sons of Benjamin, for Beeroth is also reckoned to Benjamin,
E o filho de Saul tinha dois homens, os quais eram capitães de tropa, o nome de um era Baaná, e o do outro Recabe, filhos de Rimom beerotita, dos filhos de Benjamim (porque Beerote era contada com Benjamim;
3 and the Beerothites flee to Gittaim, and are sojourners there to this day.
esses beerotitas haviam fugido a Gitaim, e eram peregrinos ali até então).
4 And to Jonathan son of Saul [is] a son—lame; he was a son of five years at the coming in of the rumor of [the death of] Saul and Jonathan, out of Jezreel, and his nurse lifts him up, and flees, and it comes to pass in her hastening to flee, that he falls, and becomes lame, and his name [is] Mephibosheth.
E Jônatas, filho de Saul, tinha um filho aleijado dos pés de idade de cinco anos, o qual, quando a notícia da morte de Saul e de Jônatas veio de Jezreel, a sua ama o tomou e fugiu; e quando ela ia fugindo depressa, o menino caiu e ficou aleijado. Seu nome era Mefibosete.
5 And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, go, and come in at the heat of the day to the house of Ish-Bosheth, and he is lying down—the lying down of noon;
Então os filhos de Rimom beerotita, Recabe e Baaná, foram e entraram no maior calor do dia na casa de Is-Bosete, o qual estava dormindo à sesta.
6 and they have come there, to the midst of the house, taking wheat, and they strike him to the fifth [rib], and Rechab and his brother Baanah have escaped;
Eles entraram no meio da casa como quem vinha buscar trigo, e lhe feriram na quinta costela. E Recabe e seu irmão Baaná escaparam.
7 indeed, they come into the house, and he is lying on his bed, in the inner part of his bed-chamber, and they strike him, and put him to death, and turn his head aside, and they take his head, and go the way of the plain all the night,
Pois, quando entraram na casa, estando ele em sua cama em seu quarto, feriram-no de morte, e cortaram-lhe a cabeça, e, havendo-a tomado, caminharam toda a noite pelo caminho da planície.
8 and bring in the head of Ish-Bosheth to David in Hebron, and say to the king, “Behold, the head of Ish-Bosheth, son of Saul, your enemy, who sought your life; and YHWH gives vengeance to my lord the king this day, of Saul and of his seed.”
E trouxeram a cabeça de Is-Bosete a Davi em Hebrom, e disseram ao rei: Eis aqui a cabeça de Is-Bosete, filho de Saul, teu inimigo, que procurava matar-te; e o SENHOR vingou hoje ao meu senhor, o rei, de Saul e de sua descendência.
9 And David answers Rechab and his brother Baanah, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and says to them, “YHWH lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
E Davi respondeu a Recabe e a seu irmão Baaná, filhos de Rimom beerotita, e disse-lhes: Vive o SENHOR que redimiu minha alma de toda angústia,
10 when one is declaring to me, saying, Behold, Saul is dead, and he was as a bearer of tidings in his own eyes, then I take hold on him, and slay him in Ziklag, instead of my giving to him [for] the tidings.
que, quando um me deu a notícia, dizendo: Eis que Saul é morto, imaginando que trazia uma boa notícia, eu o detive e o matei em Ziclague, por causa da notícia.
11 Also—when wicked men have slain the righteous man in his own house, on his bed; and now, do I not require his blood from your hand, and have taken you away from the earth?”
Quanto mais aos homens maus que mataram a um homem justo em sua casa, e sobre sua cama? Agora, pois, não tenho eu de exigir o seu sangue das vossas mãos, e exterminar-vos da terra?
12 And David commands the young men, and they slay them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hang [them] over the pool in Hebron, and they have taken the head of Ish-Bosheth, and bury [it] in the burying-place of Abner in Hebron.
Então Davi deu ordem aos rapazes, e eles os mataram, e cortaram-lhes as mãos e os pés, e penduraram-nos sobre o tanque, em Hebrom. Depois tomaram a cabeça de Is-Bosete, e enterraram-na no sepulcro de Abner em Hebrom.
