1 Chronicles 10
1 The army of Philistia [again] fought against the Israelis. The Israeli soldiers ran away from them, and many Israelis were killed {the soldiers of Philistia killed many Israelis} on Gilboa Mountain.
E os philisteus pelejaram com Israel: e os homens de Israel fugiram de diante dos philisteus, e cairam feridos nas montanhas de Gilboa.
2 The soldiers of Philistia caught up with Saul and his sons, and they killed his sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua.
E os philisteus apertaram com Saul e com seus filhos, e feriram os philisteus a Jonathan, e a Abinadab, e a Malchisua, filhos de Saul.
3 The fighting was very fierce around Saul, and the (archers/men who shot arrows) shot Saul and wounded him severely.
E a peleja se agravou contra Saul, e os flecheiros o acharam: e temeu muito aos flecheiros.
4 Saul said to the man who was carrying his weapons, “Take out your sword and kill me with it, in order that these heathen Philistines will not be able to injure me [further] and make fun of me [while I am dying].” But the man who was carrying Saul’s weapons was terrified and refused to do that. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it [and died].
Então disse Saul ao seu escudeiro: Arranca a tua espada, e atravessa-me com ela; para que porventura não venham estes incircuncisos e escarneçam de mim. Porém o seu escudeiro não quis, porque temia muito; então tomou Saul a espada, e se lançou sobre ela.
5 When the man carrying his weapons saw that Saul was dead, he also threw himself on his own sword and died.
Vendo pois o seu escudeiro que Saul estava morto, também ele se lançou sobre a espada, e morreu.
6 So Saul and three of his sons all died, and none of his descendants ever became king.
Assim morreram Saul e seus três filhos; e toda a sua casa morreu juntamente.
7 When the Israelis who were living in the valley saw that their army had run away and that Saul and his three sons were dead, they left their towns and ran away. Then the soldiers from Philistia came and (occupied/lived in) those towns.
E, vendo todos os homens de Israel, que estavam no vale, que haviam fugido, e que Saul e seus filhos eram mortos, deixaram as suas cidades, e fugiram: então vieram os philisteus, e habitaram nelas.
8 The next day, when the Philistines came to take away the weapons of the dead [Israeli soldiers], they found the corpses of Saul and his three sons on Gilboa Mountain.
E sucedeu que, no dia seguinte, vindo os philisteus a despojar os mortos, acharam a Saul e a seus filhos estirados nas montanhas de Gilboa.
9 They took the clothes off Saul’s corpse and [cut off] his head and took it and Saul’s armor.
E o despojaram, e tomaram a sua cabeça e as suas armas, e as enviaram pela terra dos philisteus em redor, para o anunciarem a seus ídolos e ao povo.
10 Then they sent messengers throughout their land, to proclaim the news throughout their own area, to their idols and to the other people. They put Saul’s armor in the temple where their idols were, and they hung Saul’s head in the temple of [their god] Dagon.
E puseram as suas armas na casa do seu deus, e a sua cabeça afixaram na casa de Dagon.
11 All the people who lived in Jabesh in [the] Gilead [region] heard what the Philistines had done to Saul’s [corpse].
Ouvindo pois toda a Jabes de Gilead tudo quanto os philisteus fizeram a Saul,
12 So the bravest men/soldiers of Jabesh went and got the corpses of Saul and his sons and brought them back to Jabesh. They buried their bones under a large tree in Jabesh. Then the people of Jabesh (fasted/abstained from eating food) for seven days.
Então todos os homens belicosos se levantaram, e tomaram o corpo de Saul, e os corpos de seus filhos, e os trouxeram a Jabes; e sepultaram os seus ossos debaixo dum carvalho em Jabes, e jejuaram sete dias.
13 Saul died because he did not faithfully obey what Yahweh told him to do. He even went to a woman who talks to the spirits of dead people and asked her what he should do,
Assim morreu Saul por causa da sua transgressão com que transgrediu contra o Senhor, por causa da palavra do Senhor, a qual não havia guardado; e também porque buscou a adivinhadora para a consultar.
14 instead of asking Yahweh what he should do. So Yahweh caused him to die, and he appointed David, the son of Jesse, to be the king [of Israel].
E não buscou ao Senhor, pelo que o matou, e transferiu o reino a David, filho de Jessé.
