< 1 Reis 21 >

1 E succedeu depois d'estas coisas, tendo Naboth, o jezreelita uma vinha, que em Jezreel estava junto ao palacio de Achab, rei de Samaria,
And after these things, Naboth the Jezrahelite, who was in Jezrahel, had at that time a vineyard near the palace of Achab king of Samaria.
2 Que Achab fallou a Naboth, dizen- do: Dá-me a tua vinha, para que me sirva de horta pois está visinha ao pé da minha casa; e te darei por ella outra vinha melhor do que ella: ou, se parece bem aos teus olhos, dar-te-hei a sua valia em dinheiro.
And Achab spoke to Naboth, saying: Give me thy vineyard, that I may make me a garden of herbs, because it is nigh, and adjoining to my house, and I will give thee for it a better vineyard: or if thou think it more convenient for thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money.
3 Porém Naboth disse a Achab: Guarde-me o Senhor de que eu te dê a herança de meus paes.
Naboth answered him: The Lord be merciful to me, and not let me give thee the inheritance of my fathers.
4 Então Achab veiu desgostoso e indignado á sua casa, por causa da palavra que Naboth, o jezreelita, lhe fallara, dizendo: Não te darei a herança de meus paes. E deitou-se na sua cama, e voltou o rosto, e não comeu pão.
And Achab came into his house angry and fretting, because of the word that Naboth the Jezrahelite had spoken to him, saying: I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And casting himself upon his bed, he turned away his face to the wall, and would eat no bread.
5 Porém, vindo a elle Jezabel, sua mulher, lhe disse: Que ha, que está tão desgostoso o teu espirito, e não comes pão
And Jezabel his wife went in to him, and said to him: What is the matter that thy soul is so grieved? and why eatest thou no bread?
6 E elle lhe disse: Porque fallei a Naboth, o jezreelita, e lhe disse: Dá-me a tua vinha por dinheiro; ou, se te apraz, te darei outra vinha em seu logar. Porém elle disse: Não te darei a minha vinha.
And he answered her: I spoke to Naboth the Jezrahelite, and said to him: Give me thy vineyard, and take money for it: or if it please thee, I will give thee a better vineyard for it. And he said: I will not give thee my vineyard.
7 Então Jezabel, sua mulher lhe disse: Governas tu agora no reino de Israel? levanta-te, come pão, e alegre-se o teu coração: eu te darei a vinha de Naboth, o jezreelita.
Then Jezabel his wife said to him: Thou art of great authority indeed, and governest well the kingdom of Israel. Arise, and eat bread, and be of good cheer, I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite.
8 Então escreveu cartas em nome de Achab, e as sellou com o seu sinete; e mandou as cartas aos anciãos e aos nobres que havia na sua cidade e habitavam com Naboth.
So she wrote letter’s in Achab’s name, and sealed them with his ring, and sent them to the ancients, and the chief men that were in his city, and that dwelt with Naboth.
9 E escreveu nas cartas, dizendo: Apregoae um jejum, e ponde a Naboth acima do povo.
And this was the tenor of the letters: Proclaim a fast, and make Naboth sit among the chief of the people,
10 E ponde defronte d'elle dois homens, filhos de Belial, que testemunhem contra elle, dizendo: Blasphemaste contra Deus e contra o rei: e trazei-o fóra, e apedrejae-o para que morra.
And suborn two men, sons of Belial against him, and let them bear false witness: that he hath blasphemed God and the king: and then carry him out, and stone him, and so let him die.
11 E os homens da sua cidade, os anciãos e os nobres que habitavam na sua cidade, fizeram como Jezabel lhes ordenara, conforme estava escripto nas cartas que lhes mandara.
And the men of his city, the ancients and nobles, that dwelt with him in the city, did as Jezabel had commanded them, and as it was written in the letters which she had sent to them:
12 Apregoaram um jejum, e pozeram a Naboth acima do povo.
They proclaimed a fast, and made Naboth sit among the chief of the people.
13 Então vieram dois homens, filhos de Belial, e pozeram-se defronte d'elle; e os homens, filhos de Belial, testemunharam contra elle, contra Naboth, perante o povo, dizendo: Naboth blasphemou contra Deus e contra o rei. E o levaram para fóra da cidade, e o apedrejaram com pedras, e morreu.
And bringing two men, sons of the devil, they made them sit against him: and they, like men of the devil, bore witness against him before the people, saying: Naboth hath blasphemed God and the king: wherefore they brought him forth without the city, and stoned him to death.
14 Então enviaram a Jezabel, dizendo: Naboth foi apedrejado, e morreu.
And they sent to Jezabel, saying: Naboth is stoned, and is dead.
15 E succedeu que, ouvindo Jezabel que já fôra apedrejado Naboth, e morrera, disse Jezabel a Achab: Levanta-te, e possue a vinha de Naboth, o jezreelita, a qual te recusou dar por dinheiro; porque Naboth não vive, mas é morto.
And it came to pass when Jezabel heard that Naboth was stoned, and dead, that she said to Achab: Arise and take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite, who would not agree with thee, and give it thee for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead.
16 E succedeu que, ouvindo Achab, que já Naboth era morto, Achab se levantou, para descer para a vinha de Naboth, o jezreelita, para a possuir.
And when Achab heard this, to wit, that Naboth was dead, he arose, and went down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite, to take possession of it.
17 Então veiu a palavra do Senhor a Elias, o tesbita, dizendo:
And the word of the Lord came to Elias the Thesbite, saying:
18 Levanta-te, desce para encontrar-te com Achab, rei de Israel, que está em Samaria: eis que está na vinha de Naboth, aonde tem descido para a possuir.
Arise, and go down to meet Achab king of Israel, who is in Samaria: behold he is going down to the vineyard of Naboth, to take possession of it:
19 E fallar-lhe-has, dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor: Porventura não mataste e tomaste a herança? Fallar-lhe-has mais, dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor: No logar em que os cães lamberam o sangue de Naboth os cães lamberão o teu sangue, o teu mesmo.
And thou shalt speak to him, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Thou hast slain, moreover also thou hast taken possession. And after these words thou shalt add: Thus saith the Lord: In this place, wherein the dogs have licked the blood of Naboth, they shall lick thy blood also.
20 E disse Achab a Elias: Já me achaste, inimigo meu? E elle disse: Achei-te; porquanto já te vendeste para fazeres o que é mau aos olhos do Senhor.
And Achab said to Elias: Hast thou found me thy enemy? He said: I have found thee, because thou art sold, to do evil in the sight of the Lord.
21 Eis que trarei mal sobre ti, e arrancarei a tua posteridade, e arrancarei de Achab a todo o homem, como tambem o encerrado e o desamparado em Israel;
Behold I will bring evil upon thee, and I will cut down thy posterity, and I will kill of Achab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up, and the last in Israel.
22 E farei a tua casa como a casa de Jeroboão, filho de Nebat, e como a casa de Baása, filho de Ahias: por causa da provocação, com que me provocaste e fizeste peccar a Israel.
And I will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and like the house of Baasa the son of Ahias: for what thou hast done, to provoke me to anger, and for making Israel to sin.
23 E tambem ácerca de Jezabel fallou o Senhor, dizendo: Os cães comerão a Jezabel junto ao antemuro de Jezreel.
And of Jezabel also the Lord spoke, saying: The dogs shall eat Jezabel in the field of Jezrahel.
24 Aquelle que de Achab morrer na cidade os cães o comerão: e o que morrer no campo as aves do céu o comerão.
If Achab die in the city, the dogs shall eat him: but if he die in the field, the birds of the air shall eat him.
25 Porém ninguem fôra como Achab, que se vendera para fazer o que era máu aos olhos do Senhor: porque Jezabel, sua mulher, o incitava.
Now there was not such another as Achab, who was sold to do evil in the sight of the Lord: for his wife Jezabel set him on,
26 E fez grandes abominações, seguindo os idolos, conforme a tudo o que fizeram os amorrheos, os quaes o Senhor lançou fóra da sua possessão, de diante dos filhos de Israel.
And he became abominable, insomuch that he followed the idols which the Amorrhites had made, whom the Lord destroyed before the face of the children of Israel.
27 Succedeu pois que Achab, ouvindo estas palavras, rasgou os seus vestidos, e cobriu a sua carne de sacco, e jejuou: e jazia em sacco, e andava mansamente.
And when Achab had heard these words, he rent his garments, and put haircloth upon his flesh, and fasted and slept in sackcloth, and walked with his head cast down.
28 Então veiu a palavra do Senhor a Elias tesbita, dizendo:
And the word of the Lord came to Elias the Thesbite, saying:
29 Não viste que Achab se humilha perante mim? porquanto pois se humilha perante mim, não trarei este mal nos seus dias, mas nos dias de seu filho trarei este mal sobre a sua casa.
Hast thou not seen Achab humbled before me? therefore, because he hath humbled himself for my sake, I will not bring the evil in his days, but in his son’s days will I bring the evil upon his house.
