2 Samuel 23
1 David, the son of Jesse, was a man whom [God caused to] become great. He was appointed to become king by the God whom Jacob [worshiped]. He wrote beautiful songs for the Israeli people. This is the last song that he wrote:
Estas são as últimas palavras de Davi. Disse Davi filho de Jessé, Disse aquele homem que foi levantado alto, O ungido do Deus de Jacó, O suave em cânticos de Israel:
2 “The Spirit of Yahweh tells me what to say; the message that I speak [MTY] comes from him.
O espírito do SENHOR falou por mim, E sua palavra foi em minha língua.
3 God, the one whom we Israeli [people worship], has spoken; the one who protects us Israeli people said to me, ‘Kings who rule people justly have an awesome respect for me, God.
O Deus de Israel disse, Falou-me o Forte de Israel: O dominador dos homens será justo. Dominador em temor de Deus.
4 They are like the sun that shines at dawn and causes the grass to [sprout/sparkle] after the rain ends.’
Será como a luz da manhã quando sai o sol, Da manhã sem nuvens; Quando a erva da terra brota Por meio do resplendor depois da chuva.
5 And truly, that is how God will surely bless my family [RHQ] because he made an agreement with me that will endure forever, an agreement in which he promises that no part of it will ever be changed. He will surely cause me to prosper [RHQ], and he will always help me, and that is all that I desire.
Não está minha casa com Deus? Pois ele fez comigo um pacto perpétuo, Ordenado em todas as coisas, e será guardado; pois não é dele que brotará toda a minha salvação e todo o meu desejo?
6 But [he will get rid of] godless/evil people like [SIM] people throw away thorns that [injure people if they try to] pick them up with their hands.
Mas os malignos serão todos eles como espinhos arrancados, os quais ninguém toma com a mão;
7 Someone [who wants to get rid of thornbushes] does not grab them; he uses an iron [shovel] or a spear [to dig them out] and then he burns them completely.
Em vez disso o que quer tocar neles, Arma-se de ferro e de haste de lança, e são queimados em seu lugar.
8 These are the names of David’s three greatest warriors. The first was Esh-Baal, [whose other name was Jashobeam], from the Hachmon clan (OR, the son of Hachmon). He was the leader of the three men. One time he fought against 800 enemies and killed them all with his spear.
Estes são os nomes dos valentes que teve Davi: Josebe-Bassebete, o taquemonita, principal dos capitães: era este Adino o eznita, que matou em uma ocasião sobre oitocentos homens.
9 The second/next one of the three greatest warriors was Eleazar, who was the son of Dodo from the clan of Ahoh. One day he was with David when they defied/challenged the soldiers of Philistia who had gathered for the battle. The [other] Israeli soldiers retreated,
Depois deste, Eleazar, filho de Dodô de Aoí, foi dos três valentes que estavam com Davi, quando desafiaram aos filisteus que se haviam juntado ali à batalha, e subiram os de Israel.
10 but Eleazar stood there and fought the soldiers of Philistia until his arm became very tired, with the result that [his hand cramped and] he could not stop gripping his sword. Yahweh won a great victory on that day. And afterwards the [other] Israeli soldiers returned [to where Eleazar was], and stripped off the [armor from the men whom he had] killed.
Este, levantando-se, feriu aos filisteus, até que sua mão se cansou, e ficou grudada em sua espada. Aquele dia o SENHOR fez grande salvação; e voltou-se o povo depois dele somente para tomar o despojo.
11 The third one of the greatest warriors was Shammah, the son of Agee from [the clan/town of] Harar. One time the Philistia soldiers gathered at Lehi [town], where there was a field full of lentils/peas [that they wanted to steal]. The other Israeli soldiers ran away from the Philistia troops,
Depois deste foi Samá, filho de Agé araíta: que havendo os filisteus se juntado em uma aldeia, havia ali um terreno cheio de lentilhas, e o povo havia fugido diante dos filisteus:
12 but Shammah stood there in the field and did not let the Philistia soldiers [steal the crops], and killed them. Yahweh won a great victory on that day.
Ele então se parou em meio do terreno e defendeu-o, e feriu aos filisteus; e o SENHOR fez uma grande salvação.
13 Altogether there were 30 special warriors among David’s soldiers. Once, when it was almost time to harvest [the crops], three of those 30 men went down to Adullam Cave, where David was [staying]. A group of men from the Philistia army had set up their tents in Rephaim Valley [near Jerusalem].
E três dos trinta principais desceram e vieram em tempo da colheita a Davi à cova de Adulão: e o acampamento dos filisteus estava no vale de Refaim.
14 David [and his soldiers] were in the cave [because it was safe there], and [another] group of Philistia soldiers was occupying Bethlehem.
Davi então estava na fortaleza, e a guarnição dos filisteus estava em Belém.
15 [One day] David very much wanted [some water] to drink, and said “I wish that someone would bring me some water from the well near the gate at Bethlehem!”
E Davi teve desejo, e disse: Quem me dera a beber da água da cisterna de Belém, que está à porta!
16 So his three greatest warriors forced their way through the camp of Philistia soldiers and drew some water from the well, and brought it to David. But he would not drink it. Instead, he poured it out [on the ground] as an offering to Yahweh.
Então os três valentes irromperam pelo acampamento dos filisteus, e tiraram água da cisterna de Belém, que estava à porta; e tomaram, e trouxeram-na a Davi: mas ele não a quis beber, mas derramou-a ao SENHOR, dizendo:
17 He said, “Yahweh, it would certainly not be right for me to drink this water! That would be like [RHQ] drinking the blood of these men who were willing/ready to die for me!” So he refused to drink it. That was one of the things that those three great warriors did.
Longe seja de mim, ó SENHOR, que eu faça isto. Eis de beber eu o sangue dos homens que foram com perigo de sua vida? E não quis bebê-la. Os três valentes fizeram isto.
18 Abishai, Joab’s [younger] brother, was the leader of the 30 [greatest warriors]. [One day] he fought against 300 men and killed them all with his spear. As a result, he also became famous.
E Abisai irmão de Joabe, filho de Zeruia, foi o principal dos três; o qual levantou sua lança contra trezentos, que matou; e teve nome entre os três.
19 He was the most famous of the thirty greatest warriors, and he became their leader/commander, but he was not one of the three greatest warriors.
Ele era o mais preeminente dos três, e o primeiro deles; mas não chegou aos três primeiros.
20 Jehoiada’s son Benaiah, from Kabzeel [town], also did great deeds. He killed two of the best warriors from the Moab people-group. Also, he went down into a pit on a day when snow was falling, and killed a lion there.
Depois, Benaia filho de Joiada, filho de um homem esforçado, grande em feitos, de Cabzeel. Este feriu dois leões de Moabe: e ele mesmo desceu, e feriu um leão em meio de um fosso no tempo da neve:
21 He also killed a huge soldier from Egypt who carried a spear. Benaiah [had only] his club, but he attacked the giant with it. Then he snatched the spear from the man’s hand and killed him with his own spear.
Também feriu ele a um egípcio, homem de grande estatura; e tinha o egípcio uma lança em sua mão; mas desceu a ele com um cajado, e arrebatou ao egípcio a lança da mão, e o matou com sua própria lança.
22 Those are [some of] the things that Benaiah did. As a result, he became famous, like the three greatest warriors were.
Isto fez Benaia filho de Joiada, e teve nome entre os três valentes.
23 He was more honored than the other members of the group of thirty great warriors, but not as famous as the three greatest warriors. David appointed him to be the commander of his bodyguards.
Dos trinta foi o mais preeminente; mas não chegou aos três primeiros. E Davi o pôs em seu conselho.
