1 Crônicas 21
1 Então Satanaz se levantou contra Israel, e incitou David a numerar a Israel.
Now Satan rose up against Israel, and he incited David so that he would number Israel.
2 E disse David a Joab e aos maioraes do povo: Ide, numerae a Israel, desde Berseba até Dan; e trazei-me a conta, para que saiba o numero d'elles.
And David said to Joab and to the leaders of the people: “Go, and number Israel, from Beersheba even to Dan. And bring me the number, so that I may know it.”
3 Então disse Joab: O Senhor accrescente ao seu povo cem vezes tanto como é; porventura, ó rei meu senhor, não são todos servos de meu senhor? Porque procura isto o meu senhor? Porque seria causa de delicto para com Israel.
And Joab responded: “May the Lord increase his people a hundred times more than they are. But, my lord the king, are they not all your servants? Why would my lord seek this thing, which may be imputed as a sin to Israel?”
4 Porém a palavra do rei prevaleceu contra Joab; pelo que saiu Joab, e passou por todo o Israel; então voltou para Jerusalem.
But the word of the king prevailed instead. And Joab went away, and he traveled around, through all of Israel. And he returned to Jerusalem.
5 E Joab deu a David a somma do numero do povo: e era todo o Israel um milhão e cem mil homens, dos que arrancavam espada; e de Judah quatrocentos e setenta mil homens, dos que arrancavam espada.
And he gave to David the number of those whom he had surveyed. And the entire number of Israel was found to be one million and one hundred thousand men who could draw the sword; but from Judah, there were four hundred and seventy thousand men of war.
6 Porém os de Levi e Benjamin não contou entre elles, porque a palavra do rei foi abominavel a Joab.
But Levi and Benjamin he did not number. For Joab executed the orders of the king unwillingly.
7 E este negocio tambem pareceu mal aos olhos de Deus: pelo que feriu a Israel.
Then God was displeased with what had been ordered, and so he struck Israel.
8 Então disse David a Deus: Gravemente pequei em fazer este negocio; porém agora sê servido tirar a iniquidade de teu servo, porque obrei mui loucamente.
And David said to God: “I have sinned exceedingly in doing this. I beg you take away the iniquity of your servant. For I have acted unwisely.”
9 Fallou pois o Senhor a Gad, o vidente de David, dizendo:
And the Lord spoke to Gad, the seer of David, saying:
10 Vae, e falla a David, dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor: Tres coisas te proponho: escolhe uma d'ellas, para que eu t'a faça.
“Go, and speak to David, and tell him: Thus says the Lord: I give to you the option of three things. Choose the one that you will want, and I will do it to you.”
11 E Gad veiu a David, e lhe disse: Assim diz o Senhor: Escolhe para ti,
And when Gad had gone to David, he said to him: “Thus says the Lord: Choose what you will want:
12 Ou tres annos de fome, ou que tres mezes te consumas diante de teus adversarios, e a espada de teus inimigos te alcance, ou que tres dias a espada do Senhor, isto é, a peste na terra, e o anjo do Senhor destruam todos os termos de Israel: vê pois agora que resposta hei de levar a quem me enviou.
Either three years of famine, or three months for you to flee from your enemies, unable to escape from their sword, or three days for the sword of the Lord and a pestilence to turn within the land, with the Angel of the Lord killing in every part of Israel. Now therefore, see what I should respond to him who sent me.”
13 Então disse David a Gad: Estou em grande angustia; caia eu pois nas mãos do Senhor, porque são muitissimas as suas misericordias; mas que eu não caia nas mãos dos homens.
And David said to Gad: “There are difficulties pressing upon me from every side. But it is better for me to fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercies are many, than into the hands of men.”
14 Mandou pois o Senhor a peste a Israel: e cairam d'Israel setenta mil homens.
Therefore, the Lord sent a pestilence upon Israel. And there fell from Israel seventy thousand men.
15 E o Senhor mandou um anjo a Jerusalem para a destruir; e, destruindo-a elle, o Senhor o viu, e se arrependeu d'aquelle mal, e disse ao anjo destruidor: Basta, agora retira a tua mão. E o anjo do Senhor estava junto á eira de Ornan, jebuseo.
Also, he sent an Angel to Jerusalem, so that he might strike it. And while he was striking, the Lord saw and took pity over the magnitude of the harm. And he commanded the Angel who was striking: “It is enough. Now let your hand cease.” And the Angel of the Lord was standing beside the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
16 E, levantando David os seus olhos, viu o anjo do Senhor, que estava entre a terra e o céu, com a sua espada desembainhada na sua mão estendida contra Jerusalem: então David e os anciãos, cobertos de saccos, se prostraram sobre os seus rostos.
And David, lifting up his eyes, saw the Angel of the Lord, standing between heaven and earth with a drawn sword in his hand, turned toward Jerusalem. And both he and those greater by birth, being clothed in haircloth, fell prone upon the ground.
17 E disse David a Deus: Não sou eu o que disse que se contasse o povo? E eu mesmo sou o que pequei, e fiz muito mal; mas estas ovelhas que fizeram? Ah! Senhor, meu Deus, seja a tua mão contra mim, e contra a casa de meu pae, e não para castigo de teu povo.
And David said to God: “Am I not the one who ordered that the people be numbered? It is I who sinned; it is I who did evil. This flock, what does it deserve? O Lord my God, I beg you to let your hand be turned against me and against the house of my father. But let not your people be struck down.”
18 Então o anjo do Senhor disse a Gad que dissesse a David que subisse David para levantar um altar ao Senhor na eira d'Ornan, jebuseo.
Then the Angel of the Lord instructed Gad to tell David that he should ascend and build an altar to the Lord God on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19 Subiu pois David, conforme a palavra de Gad, que fallara em nome do Senhor.
Therefore, David ascended, in accord with the word of Gad, which he had spoken to him in the name of the Lord.
20 E, virando-se Ornan, viu o anjo, e se esconderam com elle seus quatro filhos: e Ornan estava trilhando o trigo.
Now when Ornan had looked up and seen the Angel, he and his four sons hid themselves. For at that time, he was threshing wheat upon the floor.
21 E David veiu a Ornan: e olhou Ornan, e viu a David, e saiu da eira, e se prostrou perante David com o rosto em terra.
Then, as David was approaching Ornan, Ornan saw him, and he went out from the threshing floor to meet him. And he reverenced him prone on the ground.
22 E disse David a Ornan: Dá-me este logar da eira, para edificar n'elle um altar ao Senhor; dá-m'o pelo seu valor, para que cesse este castigo sobre o povo.
And David said to him: “Give this place of your threshing floor to me, so that I may build an altar to the Lord upon it. And you shall accept from me as much money as it is worth, so that the plague may cease from the people.”
23 Então disse Ornan a David: Toma-a para ti, e faça o rei meu Senhor d'ella o que parecer bem aos seus olhos: eis que dou os bois para holocaustos, e os trilhos para lenha, e o trigo para offerta de manjares: tudo dou.
But Ornan said to David: “Take it, and may my lord the king do whatever pleases him. Moreover, I give the oxen also as a holocaust, and the plow for wood, and the wheat for a sacrifice. I will offer all freely.”
24 E disse o rei David a Ornan: Não, antes pelo seu valor a quero comprar: porque não tomarei o que é teu, para o Senhor; para que não offereça holocausto sem custo.
And king David said to him: “By no means shall it be so. Instead, I will give money to you, as much as it is worth. For I must not take it from you, and thereby offer to the Lord holocausts that cost nothing.”
25 E David deu a Ornan por aquelle logar o peso de seiscentos siclos de oiro.
Therefore, David gave Ornan, for the place, the very just weight of six hundred shekels of gold.
26 Então David edificou ali um altar ao Senhor, e offereceu n'elle holocaustos e sacrificios pacificos: e invocou o Senhor, o qual lhe respondeu com fogo do céu sobre o altar do holocausto.
And he built an altar to the Lord there. And he offered holocausts and peace offerings, and he called upon the Lord. And he heeded him by sending fire from heaven upon the altar of the holocaust.
27 E o Senhor deu ordem ao anjo, e elle tornou a sua espada á bainha.
And the Lord instructed the Angel, and he turned his sword back into its sheath.
28 Vendo David, no mesmo tempo, que o Senhor lhe respondera na eira de Ornan, jebuseo, sacrificou ali.
Then, seeing that the Lord had heeded him at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, David immediately immolated victims there.
29 Porque o tabernaculo do Senhor, que Moysés fizera no deserto, e o altar do holocausto, estavam n'aquelle tempo no alto de Gibeon.
But the tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses had made in the desert, and the altar of holocausts, were at that time on the high place of Gibeon.
30 E não podia David ir perante elle buscar ao Senhor; porque estava aterrorisado por causa da espada do anjo do Senhor.
And David was unable to go to the altar, so that he might pray to God there. For he had been struck with an exceedingly great fear, seeing the sword of the Angel of the Lord.
