< Joshua 10 >

1 And it came to pass, when Adonizedec, king of Jerusalem, heard that Joshua had captured Ai, and devoted it to destruction, as he had done unto Jericho and her king, so, had he done unto Ai and her king, —and that the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and had come into their midst,
E quando Adoni-Zedeque rei de Jerusalém ouviu que Josué havia tomado a Ai, e que a haviam assolado, (como havia feito a Jericó e a seu rei, assim fez a Ai e a seu rei; ) e que os moradores de Gibeão fizeram paz com os israelitas, e que estavam entre eles;
2 then feared they greatly, because Gibeon was, a great city, as one of the royal cities, —and because, it, was greater than Ai, and, all the men thereof, were mighty:
Tiveram muito grande temor; porque Gibeão era uma grande cidade, como uma das cidades reais, e maior que Ai, e todos os seus homens fortes.
3 therefore sent Adonizedec, king of Jerusalem, unto Hoham, king of Hebron, and unto Piram, king of Jarmuth, and unto Japhia, king of Lachish, and unto Debir, king of Eglon, saying:
Enviou, pois, a dizer Adoni-Zedeque rei de Jerusalém, a Hoão rei de Hebrom, e a Pirã rei de Jeremote, e a Jafia rei de Laquis, e a Debir rei de Eglom:
4 Come up unto me and help me, that we may smite Gibeon, —for it hath made peace with Joshua, and with the sons of Israel.
Subi a mim, e ajudai-me, e combatamos a Gibeão: porque fez paz com Josué e com os filhos de Israel.
5 So they gathered themselves together and came up, even the five kings of the Amorites—the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, —they, and all their hosts, —and encamped near Gibeon, and made war against it.
E cinco reis dos amorreus, o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebrom, o rei de Jeremote, o rei de Laquis, o rei de Eglom, se juntaram e subiram, eles com todos os seus exércitos, e assentaram acampamento sobre Gibeão, e lutaram contra ela.
6 So the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua, unto the camp at Gilgal, saying, Do not withhold thy hand from thy servants, —Come up unto us quickly, and save us, and help us, for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill-country, are gathered together against us.
E os moradores de Gibeão enviaram a dizer a Josué ao acampamento em Gilgal: Não encolhas tuas mãos de teus servos; sobe prontamente a nós para guardar-nos e ajudar-nos: porque todos os reis dos amorreus que habitam nas montanhas, se juntaram contra nós.
7 So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him, even all the mighty men of valour.
E subiu Josué de Gilgal, ele e todo aquele povo de guerra com ele, e todos os homens valentes.
8 And Yahweh said unto Joshua: Do not fear because of them, for, into thy hand, have I delivered them, —not a man of them shall stand before thee.
E o SENHOR disse a Josué: Não tenhas medo deles: porque eu os entreguei em tua mão, e nenhum deles resistirá diante de ti.
9 So then Joshua came in unto them, suddenly, —all the night, came he up, from Gilgal.
E Josué veio a eles de repente, toda a noite subiu desde Gilgal.
10 And Yahweh confused them before Israel, and smote them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, —and chased them along the way that goeth up Beth-horon, and smote them as far as Azekah and as far as Makkedah.
E o SENHOR os perturbou diante de Israel, e feriu-os com grande mortandade em Gibeão: e seguiu-os pelo caminho que sobe a Bete-Horom, e feriu-os até Azeca e Maceda.
11 And it came to pass, when they fled from before Israel, they, being on the slope of Beth-horon, that, Yahweh, cast down upon them great stones out of the heavens, as far as Azekah, and they died, —more, were they who died by the hailstones, than they whom the sons of Israel slew with the sword.
E quando iam fugindo dos israelitas, à descida de Bete-Horom, o SENHOR lançou sobre eles do céu grandes pedras até Azeca, e morreram: muitos mais morreram das pedras do granizo, que os que os filhos de Israel haviam matado à espada.
12 Then, spake Joshua unto Yahweh, on the day when Yahweh delivered up the Amorites before the sons of Israel, —yea he said, in the presence of Israel—Thou Sun! in Gibeon, be still, and thou Moon! in the vale of Aijalon.
Então Josué falou ao SENHOR o dia que o SENHOR entregou aos amorreus diante dos filhos de Israel, e disse em presença dos israelitas: Sol, detém-te em Gibeão; E tu, Lua, no vale de Aijalom.
13 So the sun, was still, and, the moon, stayed, until a nation should be avenged on its foes. Is not, that, written in the Book of the Upright? So then the sun stayed in the middle of the heavens, and hastened not to go in, about a whole day.
E o sol se deteve e a lua se parou, Até tanto que a gente se havia vingado de seus inimigos. Não está este escrito no livro de Jasar? E o sol se parou em meio do céu, e não se apressou a se pôr quase um dia inteiro.
14 And there was no day like that—before it or after it, when Yahweh hearkened unto the voice of a man, —in that, Yahweh, himself fought for Israel.
E nunca foi tal dia antes nem depois daquele, havendo atendido o SENHOR à voz de um homem: porque o SENHOR lutava por Israel.
15 So Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp at Gilgal.
E Josué, e todo Israel com ele, voltava-se ao acampamento em Gilgal.
16 So these five kings fled, —and hid themselves in a cave, at Makkedah.
Porém os cinco reis fugiram, e se esconderam em uma cova em Maquedá.
17 And it was told Joshua, saying, —The five kings are found, hid in a cave at Makkedah.
E foi dito a Josué que os cinco reis haviam sido achados em uma cova em Maquedá.
18 And Joshua said, Roll ye great stones against the mouth of the cave, —and set over it men, to watch them;
Então Josué disse: Rolai grandes pedras à boca da cova, e ponde homens junto a ela que os guardem;
19 but do not, ye, stay, chase after your enemies, so shall ye attack them in the rear, —do not suffer them to enter into their cities, for Yahweh your God hath delivered them into your hand.
E vós não vos pareis, mas sim segui a vossos inimigos, e feri-lhes a retaguarda, sem deixar-lhes entrar em suas cidades; porque o SENHOR vosso Deus os entregou em vossa mão.
20 And it came to pass, when Joshua and the sons of Israel had made an end of smiting them with a very great slaughter, until they were spent, then did, the remainder that were left of them, enter into the fortified cities.
E aconteceu que quando Josué e os filhos de Israel acabaram de feri-los com mortandade muito grande, até destruí-los, os que restaram deles se meteram nas cidades fortes.
21 And all the people returned unto the camp, unto Joshua at Makkedah, in peace, —none sharpened his tongue at any man of the sons of Israel.
E todo aquele povo se voltou salvo ao acampamento a Josué em Maquedá; que não houve quem movesse sua língua contra os filhos de Israel.
22 Then said Joshua, Open ye the mouth of the cave, —and bring out unto me, these five kings, out of the cave.
Então disse Josué: Abri a boca da cova, e tirai-me dela a estes cinco reis.
23 And they did so, and brought out unto him, these five kings, out of the cave, —namely, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.
E fizeram-no assim, e tiraram-lhe da cova aqueles cinco reis: ao rei de Jerusalém, ao rei de Hebrom, ao rei de Jeremote, ao rei de Laquis, ao rei de Eglom.
24 And it came to pass, when they brought out these kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the captains of the men of war who had been with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. So they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them.
E quando tiraram estes reis a Josué, chamou Josué a todos os homens de Israel, e disse aos principais da gente de guerra que haviam vindo com ele: Chegai e ponde vossos pés sobre os pescoços destes reis. E eles se aproximaram, e puseram seus pés sobre os pescoços deles.
25 Then said Joshua unto them: Do not fear, nor be alarmed, —be firm and bold, for, thus and thus, will Yahweh do unto all your enemies, against whom ye do fight.
E Josué lhes disse: Não temais, nem vos atemorizeis; sede fortes e valentes: porque assim fará o SENHOR a todos vossos inimigos contra os quais lutai.
26 And Joshua smote them after this, and put them to death, and hanged them upon five trees, —and they remained hung on the trees, until the evening,
E depois disto Josué os feriu e os matou, e os fez enforcar em cinco madeiros: e restaram enforcados nos madeiros até à tarde.
27 And it came to pass, at the time of the going in of the sun, that Joshua gave command, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave, where they had hid themselves, —and put great stones upon the mouth of the cave, [which remain], until this very day.
E quando o sol se ia a pôr, mandou Josué que os tirassem dos madeiros, e os lançassem na cova de onde se haviam escondido: e puseram grandes pedras à boca da cova, até hoje.
28 And Joshua captured, Makkedah, on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and, the king thereof, devoted he to destruction, them and all the souls that were therein, he left no survivor, —but did unto the king of Makkedah, as he had done unto the king of Jericho.
Naquele mesmo dia tomou Josué a Maquedá, e a pôs à espada, e matou a seu rei; a eles e a tudo o que nela tinha vida, sem restar nada: mas ao rei de Maquedá fez como havia feito ao rei de Jericó.
29 And Joshua passed over, and all Israel with him, from Makkedah unto Libnah, —and fought against Libnah;
E de Maquedá passou Josué, e todo Israel com ele, a Libna; e lutou contra Libna:
30 and Yahweh delivered, it also, into the hand of Israel, with the king thereof, and he smote it with the edge of the sword, with all the souls that were therein, he left therein no survivor, —but did unto the king thereof, as he had done unto the king of Jericho.
E o SENHOR a entregou também a ela, e a seu rei, em mãos de Israel; e feriu-a a fio de espada, com tudo o que nela havia vivo, sem restar nada: mas a seu rei fez da maneira que havia feito ao rei de Jericó.
31 And Joshua passed over, and all Israel with him, from Libnah unto Lachish, —and encamped against it, and fought against it;
E Josué, e todo Israel com ele, passou de Libna a Laquis, e pôs acampamento contra ela, e combateu-a:
32 and Yahweh delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, and he captured it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, with all the souls that were therein, —according to all that he had done unto Libnah.
E o SENHOR entregou a Laquis em mão de Israel, e tomou-a ao dia seguinte, e feriu-a à espada, com tudo o que nela havia vivo, como havia feito em Libna.
33 Then, came up Horam, king of Gezer, to help Lachish, —and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had not left him a survivor.
Então Horão, rei de Gezer, subiu em ajuda de Laquis; mas a ele e a seu povo feriu Josué, até não restar nenhum deles.
34 And Joshua passed over, and all Israel with him, from Lachish unto Eglon, —and they encamped against it, and fought against it;
De Laquis passou Josué, e todo Israel com ele, a Eglom: e puseram acampamento contra ela, e combateram-na:
35 and captured it on the same day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and, all the souls that were therein, on that day, devoted he to destruction, —according to all that he had done to Lachish.
E a tomaram no mesmo dia, e meteram-na à espada; e aquele dia matou a todo o que nela havia vivo, como havia feito em Laquis.
36 And Joshua went up, and all Israel with him, from Eglon unto Hebron, —and they fought against it;
Subiu logo Josué, e todo Israel com ele, de Eglom a Hebrom, e combateram-na;
37 and captured it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, with all the souls that were therein—he left not a survivor, according to all that he had done to Eglon, —he devoted it to destruction, and all the souls that were therein.
E tomando-a, feriram-na à espada, a seu rei e a todas as suas cidades, com tudo o que nela havia vivo, sem restar nada: como fizeram a Eglom, assim a destruíram com tudo o que nela havia vivo.
38 Then Joshua turned back, and all Israel with him, unto Debir, —and fought against it;
E voltando-se Josué, e todo Israel com ele, sobre Debir, combateu-a;
39 and captured it, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and devoted to destruction every soul that was therein, he left not a survivor, —as he had done unto Hebron, so, did he unto Debir, and unto the king thereof, as also he had done unto Libnah, and unto her king.
E tomou-a, e a seu rei, e a todas as suas vilas; e feriram-nos à espada, e destruíram tudo o que ali dentro havia vivo, sem restar nada; como havia feito a Hebrom, assim fez a Debir e a seu rei; e como havia feito a Libna e a seu rei.
40 So Joshua smote all the land—the hill country, and the south, and the lowland, and the slopes, and all their kings, he left not a survivor, —but, every breathing thing, devoted he to destruction, as Yahweh, God of Israel, had commanded.
Feriu pois Josué toda a região das montanhas, e do sul, e das planícies, e das costas, e a todos os seus reis, sem restar nada; tudo o que tinha vida matou, ao modo que o SENHOR Deus de Israel o havia mandado.
41 Yea Joshua smote them, from Kadesh-barnea, even as far as Gaza, —and all the land of Goshen, even as far as Gibeon.
E feriu-os Josué desde Cades-Barneia até Gaza, e toda a terra de Gósen até Gibeão.
42 Yea, all these kings and their land, did Joshua capture at one time, —because, Yahweh, God of Israel, fought for Israel.
Todos estes reis e suas terras tomou Josué de uma vez; porque o SENHOR o Deus de Israel lutava por Israel.
43 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp at Gilgal.
E voltou Josué, e todo Israel com ele, ao acampamento em Gilgal.
