< 2 Samuel 5 >

1 Then came all the tribes of Israel to David to Hebron, and spoke, saying, Behold, we [are] thy bone and thy flesh.
Então todas as tribus d'Israel vieram a David, a Hebron, e fallaram, dizendo: Eis-nos aqui, teus ossos e tua carne somos.
2 Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a captain over Israel.
E tambem d'antes, sendo Saul ainda rei sobre nós, eras tu o que sahias e entravas com Israel; e tambem o Senhor te disse: Tu apascentarás o meu povo d'Israel, e tu serás chefe sobre Israel.
3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the LORD: and they anointed David king over Israel.
Assim pois todos os anciãos d'Israel vieram ao rei, a Hebron; e o rei David fez com elles alliança em Hebron, perante o Senhor: e ungiram a David rei sobre Israel.
4 David [was] thirty years old when he began to reign, [and] he reigned forty years.
Da edade de trinta annos era David quando começou a reinar: quarenta annos reinou.
5 In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.
Em Hebron reinou sobre Judah sete annos e seis mezes, e em Jerusalem reinou trinta e tres annos sobre todo o Israel e Judah.
6 And the king and his men went to Jerusalem to the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land: who spoke to David, saying, Except thou shalt take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in hither: thinking, David cannot come in hither.
E partiu o rei com os seus homens a Jerusalem, contra os jebuseos que habitavam n'aquella terra; e fallaram a David, dizendo: Não entrarás aqui, que os cegos e os côxos te rechaçaram d'aqui (querendo dizer: Não entrará David aqui)
7 Nevertheless, David took the strong hold of Zion: the same [is] the city of David.
Porém David tomou a fortaleza de Sião: esta é a cidade de David.
8 And David said on that day, Whoever getteth up to the gutter, and smiteth the Jebusites, and the lame and the blind, [that are] hated by David's soul, [he shall be chief and captain]: Wherefore they said, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house.
Porque David disse n'aquelle dia: Qualquer que ferir aos jebuseos, e chegar ao canal, e aos côxos e aos cegos, que a alma de David aborrece, será cabeça e capitão. Por isso se diz: Nem cego nem côxo entrará n'esta casa.
9 So David dwelt in the fort, and called it the city of David. And David built around from Millo and inward.
Assim habitou David na fortaleza, e a chamou a cidade de David: e David foi edificando em redor, desde Millo até dentro.
10 And David went on, and grew great, and the LORD God of hosts [was] with him.
E David se ia cada vez mais augmentando e crescendo, porque o Senhor Deus dos exercitos era com elle.
11 And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and carpenters, and masons: and they built David a house.
E Hirão, rei de Tyro, enviou mensageiros a David, e madeira de cedro, e carpinteiros, e pedreiros: edificaram a David uma casa.
12 And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel's sake.
E entendeu David que o Senhor o confirmara rei sobre Israel, e que exaltara o seu reino por amor do seu povo.
13 And David took [him] more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron: and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.
E tomou David mais concubinas e mulheres de Jerusalem, depois que viera de Hebron: e nasceram a David mais filhos e filhas.
14 And these [are] the names of those that were born to him in Jerusalem; Shammuah, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,
E estes são os nomes dos que lhe nasceram em Jerusalem: Sammua, e Sobab, e Nathan, e Salomão,
15 Ibhar also, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
E Ibhar, e Elisua, e Nepheg, e Japhia,
16 And Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphalet.
E Elisama, e Eliada, e Eliphelet.
17 But when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David; and David heard [of it], and went down to the hold.
Ouvindo pois os philisteos que haviam ungido a David rei sobre Israel, todos os philisteos subiram em busca de David: o que ouvindo David, desceu á fortaleza.
18 The Philistines also came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
E os philisteos vieram, e se estenderam pelo valle de Rephaim.
19 And David inquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up to the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the LORD said to David, Go up: for I will doubtless deliver the Philistines into thy hand.
E David consultou ao Senhor, dizendo: Subirei contra os philisteos? entregar-m'os-has nas minhas mãos? E disse o Senhor a David: Sobe, porque certamente entregarei os philisteos nas tuas mãos.
20 And David came to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there, and said, The LORD hath broken forth upon my enemies before me, as the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baal-perazim.
Então veiu David a Baal-perasim; e feriu-os ali David, e disse: Rompeu o Senhor a meus inimigos diante de mim, como quem rompe aguas. Por isso chamou o nome d'aquelle logar Baal-perasim.
21 And there they left their images, and David and his men burned them.
E deixaram ali os seus idolos; e David e os seus homens os tomaram.
22 And the Philistines came yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
E os philisteos tornaram a subir, e se estenderam pelo valle de Rephaim.
23 And when David inquired of the LORD, he said, Thou shalt not go up: [but] fetch a compass behind them, and come upon them over against the mulberry-trees.
E David consultou ao Senhor, o qual disse: Não subirás: mas rodeia por detraz d'elles, e virás a elles por defronte das amoreiras.
24 And let it be, when thou hearest the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself: for then shall the LORD go out before thee, to smite the host of the Philistines.
E ha de ser que, ouvindo tu um estrondo de marcha pelas copas das amoreiras, então te apressarás: porque o Senhor saiu então diante de ti, a ferir o arraial dos philisteos.
25 And David did so as the LORD had commanded him; and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou comest to Gazer.
E fez David assim como o Senhor lhe tinha ordenado: e feriu os philisteos desde Gibeah, até chegar a Gezer.
