1 Samuel 17
1 E os philisteos ajuntaram os seus arraiaes para a guerra e congregaram-se em Socoh, que está em Judah, e acamparam-se entre Socoh e Azeka, no termo de Dammim.
Now the Philistines got their armies together for war, and came together at Socoh in the land of Judah, and took up their position between Socoh and Azekah in Ephes-dammim.
2 Porém Saul e os homens de Israel se ajuntaram e acamparam no valle do carvalho, e ordenaram a batalha contra os philisteos.
And Saul and the men of Israel came together and took up their position in the valley of Elah, and put their forces in order against the Philistines.
3 E os philisteos estavam n'um monte da banda d'além, e os israelitas estavam no outro monte da banda d'áquem; e o valle estava entre elles.
The Philistines were stationed on the mountain on one side and Israel on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.
4 Então saiu do arraial dos philisteos um homem guerreiro, cujo nome era Goliath, de Gath, que tinha de altura seis covados e um palmo.
And a fighter came out from the tents of the Philistines, named Goliath of Gath; he was more than six cubits tall.
5 Trazia na cabeça um capacete de bronze, e vestia uma couraça de escamas; e era o peso da couraça de cinco mil siclos de bronze.
And he had a head-dress of brass on his head, and he was dressed in a coat of metal, the weight of which was five thousand shekels of brass.
6 E trazia grevas de bronze por cima de seus pés, e um escudo de bronze entre os seus hombros.
His legs were covered with plates of brass and hanging on his back was a javelin of brass.
7 E a haste da sua lança era como o orgão do tecelão, e o ferro da sua lança de seiscentos siclos de ferro, e diante d'elle ia o escudeiro.
The stem of his spear was as long as a cloth-worker's rod, and its head was made of six hundred shekels' weight of iron: and one went before him with his body-cover.
8 E parou, e clamou ás companhias d'Israel, e disse-lhes: Para que saireis a ordenar a batalha? não sou eu philisteo e vós servos de Saul? escolhei d'entre vós um homem que desça a mim.
He took up his position and in a loud voice said to the armies of Israel, Why have you come out to make war? Am I not a Philistine and you servants of Saul? Send out a man for yourselves and let him come down to me.
9 Se elle puder pelejar comigo, e me ferir, a vós seremos por servos; porém, se eu o vencer, e o ferir, então a nós sereis por servos, e nos servireis.
If he is able to have a fight with me and overcome me, then we will be your servants: but if I am able to overcome him, then you will be our servants and do work for us.
10 Disse mais o philisteo: Hoje desafio as companhias de Israel, dizendo: Dae-me um homem, para que ambos pelejemos.
And the Philistine said, I have put to shame the armies of Israel this day; give me a man so that we may have a fight together.
11 Ouvindo então Saul e todo o Israel estas palavras do philisteo, espantaram-se, e temeram muito.
And Saul and all Israel, hearing those words of the Philistine, were troubled and full of fear.
12 E David era filho de um homem, ephrateo, de Beth-lehem de Judah, cujo nome era Jessé, que tinha oito filhos: e nos dias de Saul era este homem já velho e adiantado na edade entre os homens.
Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Beth-lehem-judah named Jesse, who had eight sons; and he was an old man in Saul's day, and far on in years.
13 Foram-se os tres filhos mais velhos de Jessé, e seguiram a Saul á guerra: e eram os nomes de seus tres filhos, que se foram á guerra, Eliab, o primogenito, e o segundo Abinadab, e o terceiro Samma.
And the three oldest sons of Jesse had gone with Saul to the fight: the names of the three who went to the fight were Eliab, the oldest, and Abinadab the second, and Shammah the third.
14 E David era o menor; e os tres maiores seguiram a Saul.
And David was the youngest: and the three oldest were with Saul's army.
15 David porém foi-se e voltou de Saul, para apascentar as ovelhas de seu pae em Beth-lehem.
Now David went to and from Saul, looking after his father's sheep at Beth-lehem.
16 Chegava-se pois o philisteo pela manhã e á tarde; e apresentou-se por quarenta dias.
And the Philistine came near every morning and evening for forty days.
17 E disse Jessé a David, seu filho: Toma, peço-te, para teus irmãos um epha d'este grão tostado e estes dez pães, e corre a leval-os ao arraial, a teus irmãos.
And Jesse said to his son David, Take now for your brothers an ephah of this dry grain and these ten cakes of bread, and go quickly with them to the tents to your brothers;
18 Porém estes dez queijos de leite leva ao chefe de mil; e visitarás a teus irmãos, a ver se lhes vae bem; e tomarás o seu penhor.
And take these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand, and see how your brothers are and come back with a sign to say how they are.
19 E estavam Saul, e elles, e todos os homens d'Israel no valle do carvalho, pelejando com os philisteos.
Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.
20 David então de madrugada se levantou pela manhã, e deixou as ovelhas a um guarda, e carregou-se, e partiu, como Jessé lhe ordenara: e chegou ao logar dos carros, quando já o arraial sahia em ordem de batalha, e a gritos chamavam á peleja.
And David got up early in the morning, and, giving the sheep into the care of a keeper, took the things and went as Jesse had said; and he came to the lines where the carts were, when the army was going out to the fight giving their war-cry.
21 E os israelitas e philisteos se pozeram em ordem, fileira contra fileira.
And Israel and the Philistines had put their forces in position, army against army.
22 E David deixou a carga que trouxera na mão do guarda da bagagem, e correu á batalha; e, chegando, perguntou a seus irmãos se estavam bem.
And David gave his parcels into the hands of the keeper of the army stores, and went running to the army and came to his brothers to get knowledge about them.
23 E, estando elle ainda fallando com elles, eis que vinha subindo do exercito dos philisteos o homem guerreiro, cujo nome era Goliath, o philisteo de Gath e fallou conforme áquellas palavras, e David as ouviu.
And while he was talking to them, the fighter, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, came out from the Philistines' lines and said the same words, in David's hearing.
24 Porém todos os homens em Israel, vendo aquelle homem, fugiam de diante d'elle e temiam grandemente.
And all the men of Israel, when they saw him, went in flight, overcome with fear.
25 E diziam os homens de Israel: Vistes aquelle homem que subiu? pois subiu para affrontar a Israel: ha de ser pois que o homem que o ferir o rei o enriquecerá de grandes riquezas, e lhe dará a sua filha, e fará franca a casa de seu pae em Israel.
And the men of Israel said, Have you seen this man? Clearly he has come out to put shame on Israel: and it is certain that if any man overcomes him, the king will give that man great wealth, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's family free in Israel.
26 Então fallou David aos homens que estavam com elle, dizendo: Que farão áquelle homem que ferir a este philisteo, e tirar a affronta de sobre Israel? quem é pois este incircumciso philisteo, para affrontar os exercitos do Deus vivo?
And David said to the men near him, What will be done to the man who overcomes this Philistine and takes away the shame from Israel? for who is this Philistine, a man without circumcision, that he has put shame on the armies of the living God?
27 E o povo lhe tornou a fallar conforme áquella palavra dizendo: Assim farão ao homem que o ferir.
And the people gave him this answer, So it will be done to the man who overcomes him.
28 E, ouvindo Eliab, seu irmão mais velho, fallar áquelles homens, accendeu-se a ira d'Eliab contra David, e disse: Porque desceste aqui? e a quem deixaste aquellas poucas ovelhas no deserto? bem conheço a tua presumpção, e a maldade do teu coração, que desceste para ver a peleja
And Eliab, his oldest brother, hearing what David said to the men, was moved to wrath against David, and said, Why have you come here? Into whose care have you given that little flock of sheep in the waste land? I have knowledge of your pride and the evil of your heart, you have come down to see the fight.
29 Então disse David: Que fiz eu agora? porventura não ha razão para isso?
And David said, What have I done now? was it not only a word?
30 E desviou-se d'elle para outro, e fallou conforme áquella palavra: e o povo lhe tornou a responder conforme ás primeiras palavras.
And turning away from him to one of the other men, he said the same words: and the people gave him the same answer.
31 E, ouvidas as palavras que David havia fallado, as annunciaram a Saul, e mandou em busca d'elle.
And, hearing what David said, they gave Saul word of it: and he sent for him.
32 E David disse a Saul: Não desfalleça o coração de ninguem por causa d'elle: teu servo irá, e pelejará contra este philisteo.
And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart become feeble because of him; I, your servant, will go out and have a fight with this Philistine.
33 Porém Saul disse a David: Contra este philisteo não poderás ir para pelejar com elle: pois tu ainda és moço, e elle homem de guerra desde a sua mocidade.
And Saul said to David, You are not able to go out against this Philistine and have a fight with him: for you are only a boy, and he has been a man of war from his earliest days.
34 Então disse David a Saul: Teu servo apascentava as ovelhas de seu pae; e vinha um leão e um urso, e tomava uma ovelha do rebanho;
And David said to Saul, Your servant has been keeper of his father's sheep; and if a lion or a bear came and took a lamb from the flock,
35 E eu sahi após elle, e o feri, e livrei-a da sua bocca: e, levantando-se elle contra mim, lancei-lhe mão da barba, e o feri, e o matei.
I went out after him, and overcame him, and took it out of his mouth: and if, turning on me, he came at me, I took him by the hair and overcame him and put him to death.
36 Assim feriu o teu servo o leão, como o urso: assim será este incircumciso philisteo como um d'elles; porquanto affrontou os exercitos do Deus vivo.
Your servant has overcome lion and bear: and the fate of this Philistine, who is without circumcision, will be like theirs, seeing that he has put shame on the armies of the living God.
37 Disse mais David: O Senhor me livrou da mão do leão, e da do urso; elle me livrará da mão d'este philisteo. Então disse Saul a David: Vae-te embora, e o Senhor seja comtigo.
And David said, The Lord, who kept me safe from the grip of the lion and the bear, will be my saviour from the hands of this Philistine. And Saul said to David, Go! and may the Lord be with you.
38 E Saul vestiu a David dos seus vestidos, e poz-lhe sobre a cabeça um capacete de bronze: e o vestiu de uma couraça.
Then Saul gave David his clothing of war, and put a head-dress of brass on his head and had him clothed with a coat of metal.
39 E David cingiu a espada sobre os seus vestidos, e começou a andar; porém nunca o havia experimentado: então disse David a Saul: Não posso andar com isto, pois nunca o experimentei. E David tirou aquillo de sobre si.
And David took Saul's sword and put the band round him over the metal coat, and was unable to go forward; for he was not used to them. Then David said to Saul, It is not possible for me to go out with these, for I am not used to them. So David took them off.
40 E tomou o seu cajado na mão, e escolheu para si cinco seixos do ribeiro, e pôl-os no alforge de pastor, que trazia, a saber, no surrão, e lançou mão da sua funda: e foi-se chegando ao philisteo.
Then he took his stick in his hand, and got five smooth stones from the bed of the stream and put them in a bag such as is used by sheep-keepers; and in his hand was a leather band used for sending stones: and so he went in the direction of the Philistine.
41 O philisteo tambem veiu e se vinha chegando a David: e o que lhe levava o escudo ia diante d'elle.
And the Philistine came nearer to David; and the man who had his body-cover went before him.
42 E, olhando o philisteo, e vendo a David, o desprezou, porquanto era mancebo, ruivo, e de gentil aspecto.
And when the Philistine, taking note, saw David, he had a poor opinion of him: for he was only a boy, red-haired and good-looking.
43 Disse pois o philisteo a David: Sou eu algum cão, para tu vires a mim com paus? E o philisteo amaldiçoou a David pelos seus deuses.
And the Philistine said to David, Am I a dog, that you come out to me with sticks? And the Philistine put curses on David by all his gods.
44 Disse mais o philisteo a David: Vem a mim, e darei a tua carne ás aves do céu e ás bestas do campo.
And the Philistine said to David, Come here to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field.
45 David porém disse ao philisteo: Tu vens a mim com espada, e com lança, e com escudo; porém eu venho a ti em nome do Senhor dos exercitos, o Deus dos exercitos de Israel, a quem tens affrontado.
Then David said to the Philistine, You come to me with a sword and a spear and a javelin: but I come to you in the name of the Lord of armies, the God of the armies of Israel on which you have put shame.
46 Hoje mesmo o Senhor te entregará na minha mão, e ferir-te-hei, e te tirarei a cabeça, e os corpos do arraial dos philisteos darei hoje mesmo ás aves do céu e ás bestas da terra: e toda a terra saberá que ha Deus em Israel
This day the Lord will give you up into my hands, and I will overcome you, and take your head off you; and I will give the bodies of the Philistine army to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth today, so that all the earth may see that Israel has a God;
47 E saberá toda esta congregação que o Senhor salva, não com espada, nem com lança; porque do Senhor é a guerra, e elle vos entregará na nossa mão.
And all these people who are here today may see that the Lord does not give salvation by sword and spear: for the fight is the Lord's, and he will give you up into our hands.
48 E succedeu que, levantando-se o philisteo, e indo encontrar-se com David, apressou-se David, e correu ao combate, a encontrar-se com o philisteo.
Now when the Philistine made a move and came near to David, David quickly went at a run in the direction of the army, meeting the Philistine face to face.
49 E David metteu a mão no alforge, e tomou d'ali uma pedra e com a funda lh'a atirou, e feriu o philisteo na testa, e a pedra se lhe encravou na testa, e caiu sobre o seu rosto em terra.
And David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone and sent it from his leather band straight at the Philistine, and the stone went deep into his brow, and he went down to the earth, falling on his face.
50 Assim David prevaleceu contra o philisteo, com uma funda e com uma pedra, e feriu o philisteo, e o matou sem que David tivesse uma espada na mão.
So David overcame the Philistine with his leather band and a stone, wounding the Philistine and causing his death: but David had no sword in his hand.
51 Pelo que correu David, e poz-se em pé sobre o philisteo, e tomou a sua espada, e tirou-a da bainha, e o matou, e lhe cortou com ella a cabeça: vendo então os philisteos, que o seu campeão era morto, fugiram.
So running up to the Philistine and putting his foot on him, David took his sword out of its cover, and put him to death, cutting off his head with it. And when the Philistines saw that their fighter was dead, they went in flight.
52 Então os homens de Israel e Judah se levantaram, e jubilaram, e seguiram os philisteos, até chegar ao valle, e até ás portas d'Ekron: e cairam os feridos dos philisteos pelo caminho de Saaraim até Gath e até Ekron
And the men of Israel and of Judah got up, and gave a cry, and went after the Philistines as far as Gath and the town doors of Ekron. And the wounded of the Philistines were falling down by the road from Shaaraim all the way to Gath and Ekron.
53 Então voltaram os filhos de Israel de perseguirem os philisteos, e despojaram os seus arraiaes.
Then the children of Israel came back from going after the Philistines, and took their goods from the tents.
54 E David tomou a cabeça do philisteo, e a trouxe a Jerusalem: porém poz as armas d'elle na sua tenda.
And David took the head of the Philistine to Jerusalem, but the metal war-dress and the arms he put in his tent.
55 Vendo porém Saul sair David a encontrar-se com o philisteo, disse a Abner, o chefe do exercito: De quem é filho este mancebo, Abner? E disse Abner: Vive a tua alma, ó rei, que o não sei
And when Saul saw David going out against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the captain of the army, Abner, whose son is this young man? And Abner said, On your life, O king, I have no idea.
56 Disse então o rei: Pergunta, pois, de quem é filho este mancebo.
And the king said, Make search and see whose son this young man is.
57 Voltando pois David de ferir o philisteo, Abner o tomou comsigo, e o trouxe á presença de Saul, trazendo elle na mão a cabeça do philisteo.
And when David was coming back after the destruction of the Philistine, Abner took him to Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
58 E disse-lhe Saul: De quem és filho, mancebo? E disse David: Filho de teu servo Jessé, beth-lehemita.
And Saul said to him, Young man, whose son are you? And David in answer said, I am the son of your servant Jesse of Beth-lehem.
