< Joshua 6 >

1 And Jericho shuts itself up, and is shut up, because of the presence of the sons of Israel—none going out, and none coming in.
Ora Jericó cerrou-se, e estava cerrada por causa dos filhos d'Israel: nenhum sahia nem entrava.
2 And YHWH says to Joshua, “See, I have given Jericho and its king into your hand—mighty men of valor,
Então disse o Senhor a Josué: Olha, tenho dado na tua mão a Jericó e ao seu rei, os seus valentes e valorosos.
3 and you have surrounded the city—all the men of battle—going around the city once; thus you do [for] six days;
Vós pois, todos os homens de guerra, rodeareis a cidade, cercando a cidade uma vez: assim fareis por seis dias.
4 and seven priests carry seven horns of the rams before the Ark, and on the seventh day you go around the city seven times, and the priests blow with the horns,
E sete sacerdotes levarão sete buzinas de carneiros diante da arca, e no setimo dia rodeareis a cidade sete vezes: e os sacerdotes tocarão as buzinas.
5 and it has been, in the prolonging of the horn of the ram, in your hearing the voice of the horn, all the people shout [with] a great shout, and the wall of the city has fallen under it, and the people have gone up, each straight before him.”
E será que, tocando-se longamente a buzina de carneiro, ouvindo vós o sonido da buzina, todo o povo gritará com grande grita: e o muro da cidade cairá abaixo de si, e o povo subirá n'elle, cada qual em frente de si.
6 And Joshua son of Nun calls to the priests and says to them, “Carry the Ark of the Covenant, and seven priests carry seven horns of the rams before the Ark of YHWH”;
Então chamou Josué, filho de Nun, aos sacerdotes, e disse-lhes: Levae a arca do concerto; e sete sacerdotes levem sete buzinas de carneiros, diante da arca do Senhor.
7 and He said to the people, “Pass over, and go around the city, and he who is armed passes over before the Ark of YHWH.”
E disse ao povo: Passae e rodeae a cidade; e quem estiver armado, passe diante da arca do Senhor.
8 And it comes to pass, when Joshua speaks to the people, that the seven priests carrying seven horns of the rams before YHWH have passed over and blown with the horns, and the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH is going after them;
E assim foi, como Josué dissera ao povo, que os sete sacerdotes, levando as sete buzinas de carneiros diante do Senhor, passaram, e tocaram as buzinas: e a arca do concerto do Senhor os seguia.
9 and he who is armed is going before the priests blowing the horns, and he who is gathering up is going after the Ark, going on and blowing with the horns;
E os armados iam adiante dos sacerdotes, que tocavam as buzinas: e a rectaguarda seguia após da arca, andando e tocando as buzinas.
10 and Joshua has commanded the people, saying, “Do not shout, nor cause your voice to be heard, nor does a word go out from your mouth, until the day of my saying to you, Shout! Then you have shouted.”
Porém ao povo Josué tinha dado ordem, dizendo: Não gritareis, nem fareis ouvir a vossa voz, nem sairá palavra alguma da vossa bocca, até ao dia que eu vos diga: Gritae. Então gritareis.
11 And the Ark of YHWH goes around the city, going around once, and they come into the camp, and lodge in the camp.
E fez a arca do Senhor rodeiar a cidade, rodeiando-a uma vez: e vieram ao arraial, e passaram a noite no arraial.
12 And Joshua rises early in the morning, and the priests carry the Ark of YHWH,
Depois Josué se levantou de madrugada, e os sacerdotes levaram a arca do Senhor.
13 and seven priests carrying seven horns of the rams before the Ark of YHWH are walking, going on, and they have blown with the horns—and he who is armed is going before them, and he who is gathering up is going behind the Ark of YHWH—going on and blowing with the horns.
E os sete sacerdotes, que levavam as sete buzinas de carneiros diante da arca do Senhor, iam andando, e tocavam as buzinas, e os armados iam adiante d'elles, e a rectaguarda seguia atraz da arca do Senhor; os sacerdotes iam andando e tocando as buzinas.
14 And they go around the city once on the second day, and return to the camp; thus they have done [for] six days.
Assim rodeiaram outra vez a cidade no segundo dia e tornaram para o arraial: e assim fizeram seis dias.
15 And it comes to pass, on the seventh day, that they rise early, at the ascending of the dawn, and go around the city, according to this manner, seven times; (only on that day have they gone around the city seven times);
E succedeu que ao setimo dia madrugaram ao subir da alva, e da mesma maneira rodeiaram a cidade sete vezes: n'aquelle dia sómente rodeiaram a cidade sete vezes.
16 and it comes to pass, at the seventh time, the priests have blown with the horns, and Joshua says to the people, “Shout! For YHWH has given the city to you;
E succedeu que, tocando os sacerdotes a setima vez as buzinas, disse Josué ao povo: Gritae; porque o Senhor vos tem dado a cidade.
17 and the city has been devoted, it and all that [is] in it, to YHWH; only Rahab the harlot lives, she and all who [are] with her in the house, for she hid the messengers whom we sent;
Porém a cidade será anathema ao Senhor, ella e tudo quanto houver n'ella: sómente a prostituta Rahab viverá, ella e todos os que com ella estiverem em casa; porquanto escondeu os mensageiros que enviámos.
18 and surely you have kept from the devoted thing, lest you devote [yourselves], and have taken from the devoted thing, and have made the camp of Israel become a devoted thing, and have troubled it;
Tão sómente guardae-vos do anathema, para que não vos mettaes em anathema tomando d'ella, e assim façaes maldito o arraial de Israel, e o turbeis.
19 and all the silver and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron—it [is] holy to YHWH; it comes into the treasury of YHWH.”
Porém toda a prata, e o oiro, e os vasos de metal, e de ferro, são consagrados ao Senhor: irão ao thesouro do Senhor.
20 And the people shout, and blow with the horns, and it comes to pass, when the people hear the voice of the horn, that the people shout [with] a great shout, and the wall falls under it, and the people goes up into the city, each straight before him, and they capture the city;
Gritou pois o povo, tocando os sacerdotes as buzinas: e succedeu que, ouvindo o povo o sonido da buzina, gritou o povo com grande grita; e o muro caiu abaixo, e o povo subiu á cidade, cada qual em frente de si, e tomaram a cidade.
21 and they devote all that [is] in the city, from man even to woman, from young even to aged, even to ox, and sheep, and donkey, by the mouth of the sword.
E, tudo quanto na cidade havia, destruiram totalmente ao fio da espada, desde o homem até á mulher, desde o menino até ao velho, e até ao boi e gado miudo, e ao jumento.
22 And Joshua said to the two men who are spying out the land, “Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring out the woman from there, and all whom she has, as you have sworn to her.”
Josué, porém, disse aos dois homens que tinham espiado a terra: Entrae na casa da mulher prostituta, e tirae de lá a mulher com tudo quanto tiver, como lhe tendes jurado.
23 And the young men, those spying, go in and bring out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brothers, and all whom she has; indeed, they have brought out all her relatives, and place them at the outside of the camp of Israel.
Então entraram os mancebos espias, e tiraram a Rahab, e a seu pae, e a sua mãe, e a seus irmãos, e a tudo quanto tinha; tiraram tambem a todas as suas familias, e pozeram-n'os fóra do arraial d'Israel.
24 And they have burned the city with fire, and all that [is] in it; only, the silver and the gold, and the vessels of bronze, and of iron, they have given [to] the treasury of the house of YHWH;
Porém a cidade e tudo quanto havia n'ella queimaram-n'o a fogo: tão sómente a prata, e o oiro, e os vasos de metal e de ferro, deram para o thesouro da casa do Senhor.
25 and Rahab the harlot, and the house of her father, and all whom she has, Joshua has kept alive; and she dwells in the midst of Israel to this day, for she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Assim deu Josué vida á prostituta Rahab, e á familia de seu pae, e a tudo quanto tinha; e habitou no meio de Israel até ao dia de hoje: porquanto escondera os mensageiros que Josué tinha enviado a espiar a Jericó.
26 And Joshua adjures [them] at that time, saying, “Cursed [is] the man before YHWH who raises up and has built this city, [even] Jericho; he lays its foundation in his firstborn, and he sets up its doors in his youngest.”
E n'aquelle tempo Josué os esconjurou, dizendo: Maldito diante do Senhor seja o homem que se levantar e reedificar esta cidade de Jericó: no seu primogenito a fundará, e no seu filho mais novo lhe porá as portas.
27 And YHWH is with Joshua, and his fame is in all the land.
Assim era o Senhor com Josué: e corria a sua fama por toda a terra.
