1 Samuel 13
1 Um anno tinha estado Saul em seu reinado: e o segundo anno reinou sobre Israel.
Saul was thirty years old when he began to reign; when he had reigned forty years over Israel,
2 Então Saul escolheu para si tres mil de Israel; e estavam com Saul dois mil em Michmas, e na montanha de Beth-el, e mil estavam com Jonathan em Gibeah de Benjamin: e o resto do povo despediu, cada um para sua casa.
he chose three thousand men of Israel. Two thousand were with him in Michmash and in the hill country of Bethel, while a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin. The rest of the soldiers he sent home, each man to his tent.
3 E Jonathan feriu a guarnição dos philisteos que estava em Gibeah, o que os philisteos ouviram: pelo que Saul tocou a trombeta por toda a terra, dizendo: Ouçam os hebreos.
Jonathan defeated the garrison of the Philistines that was at Geba and the Philistines heard of it. Then Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, “Let the Hebrews hear.”
4 Então todo o Israel ouviu dizer: Saul feriu a guarnição dos philisteos, e tambem Israel se fez abominavel aos philisteos. Então o povo foi convocado atraz de Saul em Gilgal.
All Israel heard that Saul had defeated the garrison of the Philistines, and also that Israel had become a rotten smell to the Philistines. Then the soldiers were summoned together to join Saul at Gilgal.
5 E os philisteos se ajuntaram para pelejar contra Israel, trinta mil carros, e seis mil cavalleiros, e povo em multidão como a areia que está á borda do mar; e subiram, e se acamparam em Michmas, ao oriente de Beth-aven.
The Philistines gathered together to fight against Israel, with three thousand chariots, six thousand men to drive the chariots, and troops as numerous as the sand on the seashore. They came up and encamped at Michmash, east of Beth Aven.
6 Vendo pois os homens de Israel que estava em angustia (porque o povo estava apertado) o povo se escondeu pelas cavernas, e pelos espinhaes, e pelos penhascos, e pelas fortificações, e pelas covas.
When the men of Israel saw that they were in trouble—for the people were distressed, the people hid in caves, in the underbrush, in rocks, in wells, and in pits.
7 E os hebreos passaram o Jordão para a terra de Gad e Gilead: e, estando Saul ainda em Gilgal, todo o povo veiu atraz d'elle tremendo.
Some of the Hebrews went over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. But Saul was still at Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
8 E esperou sete dias, até ao tempo que Samuel determinara; não vindo, porém, Samuel a Gilgal, o povo se espalhava d'elle.
He waited seven days, the time Samuel had set. But Samuel did not come to Gilgal, and the people were scattering from Saul.
9 Então disse Saul: Trazei-me aqui um holocausto, e offertas pacificas. E offereceu o holocausto.
Saul said, “Bring me the burnt offering and the peace offerings.” Then he offered the burnt offering.
10 E succedeu que, acabando elle de offerecer o holocausto, eis que Samuel chegou; e Saul lhe saiu ao encontro, para o saudar.
As soon as he finished offering the burnt offering Samuel arrived. Saul went out to meet him and to greet him.
11 Então disse Samuel: Que fizeste? Disse Saul: Porquanto via que o povo se espalhava de mim, e tu não vinhas nos dias aprazados, e os philisteos já se tinham ajuntado em Michmas,
Then Samuel said, “What have you done?” Saul replied, “When I saw that the people were leaving me, and that you did not come within the set time, and that the Philistines had assembled at Michmash,
12 Eu disse: Agora descerão os philisteos sobre mim a Gilgal, e ainda á face do Senhor não orei: e violentei-me, e offereci holocausto.
I said, 'Now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal, and I have not sought the favor of Yahweh.' So I forced myself to offer the burnt offering.”
13 Então disse Samuel a Saul: Obraste nesciamente, e não guardaste o mandamento que o Senhor teu Deus te ordenou; porque agora o Senhor teria confirmado o teu reino sobre Israel para sempre.
Then Samuel said to Saul, “You have acted foolishly. You have not kept the command of Yahweh your God that he gave you. For then Yahweh would have established your rule over Israel forever.
14 Porém agora não subsistirá o teu reino: já tem buscado o Senhor para si um homem segundo o seu coração, e já lhe tem ordenado o Senhor, que seja chefe sobre o seu povo, porquanto não guardaste o que o Senhor te ordenou
But now your rule will not continue. Yahweh has sought out a man after his own heart, and Yahweh has appointed him to be prince over his people, because you have not obeyed what he commanded you.”
15 Então se levantou Samuel, e subiu de Gilgal a Gibeah de Benjamin: e Saul numerou o povo que achou com elle, uns seiscentos varões.
Then Samuel arose and went up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. Then Saul numbered the people who were present with him, about six hundred men.
16 E Saul e Jonathan, seu filho, e o povo que se achou com elles, ficaram em Gibeah de Benjamin: porém os philisteos se acamparam em Michmas.
Saul, his son Jonathan, and the people who were present with them, stayed in Geba of Benjamin. But the Philistines camped at Michmash.
17 E os destruidores sairam do campo dos philisteos em tres companhias: uma das companhias voltou pelo caminho d'Ophra á terra de Sual:
Raiders came from the camp of the Philistines in three groups. One group turned toward Ophrah, to the land of Shual.
18 Outra companhia voltou pelo caminho de Beth-horon: e a outra companhia voltou pelo caminho do termo que olha para o valle Zeboim contra o deserto.
Another group turned toward Beth Horon, and another group turned toward the border that overlooks the Valley of Zeboyim toward the wilderness.
19 E em toda a terra de Israel nem um ferreiro se achava: porque os philisteos tinham dito: Para que os hebreos não façam espada nem lança.
No blacksmith could be found throughout all of Israel, because the Philistines said, “Otherwise the Hebrews would make swords or spears for themselves.”
20 Pelo que todo o Israel tinha que descer aos philisteos para amolar cada um a sua relha, e a sua enxada, e o seu machado, e o seu sacho.
But all the men of Israel used to go down to the Philistines, each to sharpen his plow points, his mattock, his ax, and his sickle.
21 Tinham porém limas adentadas para os seus sachos, e para as suas enxadas, e para as forquilhas de tres dentes, e para os machados, e para concertar as aguilhadas.
The charge was two-thirds of a shekel for the plow points, and the mattocks, and one-third of a shekel for sharpening axes and for straightening the goads.
22 E succedeu que, no dia da peleja, se não achou nem espada nem lança na mão de todo o povo que estava com Saul e com Jonathan: porém acharam-se com Saul e com Jonathan seu filho.
So on the day of battle, there were no swords or spears found in the hands of any of the soldiers who were with Saul and Jonathan; only Saul and his son Jonathan had them.
23 E saiu a guarnição dos philisteos ao passo de Michmas.
The garrison of the Philistines went out to the pass of Michmash.
