2 Samuel 1

1 E succedeu, depois da morte de Saul, voltando David da derrota dos amalekitas, e ficando David dois dias em Siclag,

It happened after the death of Saul, that David returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and he stayed two days in Ziklag.

2 Succedeu ao terceiro dia que eis que um homem veiu do arraial de Saul com os vestidos rotos e com terra sobre a cabeça; e, succedeu que chegando elle a David, se lançou no chão, e se inclinou.

It happened on the third day, that, look, a man came out of the camp from Saul, with his clothes torn and dirt on his head. And it came about when he came to David that he fell to the ground and paid homage.

3 E David lhe disse: D'onde vens? E elle lhe disse: Escapei do exercito d'Israel.

David said to him, "Where do you come from?" He said to him, "I have escaped out of the camp of Israel."

4 E disse-lhe David: Como foi lá isso? peço-te, dize-m'o. E elle lhe respondeu: O povo fugiu da batalha, e muitos do povo cairam, e morreram, assim como tambem Saul e Jonathan, seu filho, foram mortos.

David said to him, "How did it go? Please tell me." He answered, "The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people also have fallen and are dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also."

5 E disse David ao mancebo que lhe trazia as novas: Como sabes tu que Saul e Jonathan, seu filho, são mortos?

David said to the young man who had told him this, "How do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?"

6 Então disse o mancebo que lhe dava a noticia: Cheguei por acaso á montanha de Gilboa, e eis que Saul estava encostado sobre a sua lança, e eis que carros e capitães de cavallaria apertavam com elle.

Then the young man replied, "I happened to be on Mount Gilboa and saw Saul leaning on his spear. And look, the chariots and the horsemen were closing in on him.

7 E, olhando elle para traz de si, viu-me a mim, e chamou-me; e eu disse: Eis-me aqui.

When he turned around he saw me, and called to me. I answered, 'Here I am.'

8 E elle me disse: Quem és tu? E eu lhe disse: Sou amalekita.

He said to me, 'Who are you?' I answered him, 'I am an Amalekite.'

9 Então elle me disse: Peço-te, arremessa-te sobre mim, e mata-me, porque angustias me teem cercado, pois toda a minha vida está ainda em mim.

He said to me, 'Please stand beside me, and kill me; for anguish has taken hold of me, yet there is life in me still.'

10 Arremessei-me pois sobre elle, e o matei, porque bem sabia eu que não viveria depois da sua queda, e tomei a corôa que tinha na cabeça, e a manilha que trazia no braço, e as trouxe aqui a meu senhor.

So I stood beside him, and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he had fallen. I took the crown that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord."

11 Então apanhou David os seus vestidos, e os rasgou, como tambem todos os homens que estavam com elle.

Then David took hold on his clothes, and tore them; and likewise all the men who were with him.

12 E prantearam, e choraram, e jejuaram até á tarde por Saul, e por Jonathan, seu filho, e pelo povo do Senhor, e pela casa de Israel, porque tinham caido á espada.

They mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they had fallen by the sword.

13 Disse então David ao mancebo que lhe trouxera a nova: D'onde és tu? E disse elle: Sou filho de um homem estrangeiro, amalekita.

David said to the young man who had told him, "Where are you from?" He answered, "I am the son of a foreigner, an Amalekite."

14 E David lhe disse: Como não temeste tu estender a mão para matares ao ungido do Senhor?

David said to him, "How is it that you were not afraid to put forth your hand to destroy the LORD's anointed?"

15 Então chamou David a um dos mancebos, e disse: Chega, e lança-te sobre elle. E elle o feriu, e morreu.

David called one of the young men, and said, "Go near, and fall on him." He struck him, so that he died.

16 E disse-lhe David: O teu sangue seja sobre a tua cabeça, porque a tua propria bocca testificou contra ti, dizendo: Eu matei o ungido do Senhor.

David said to him, "Your blood be on your head; for your mouth has testified against you, saying, 'I have slain the LORD's anointed.'"

17 E lamentou David a Saul e a Jonathan, seu filho, com esta lamentação,

And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son,

18 Dizendo elle que ensinassem aos filhos de Judah o uso do arco: Eis que está escripto no livro do Recto:

and said it should be taught to the people of Judah. Look, it is written in the book of Jashar.

19 Ah, ornamento d'Israel! nos teus altos fui ferido: como cairam os valentes!

"Your glory, Israel, is slain on your high places. How the mighty have fallen.

20 Não o noticieis em Gath, não o publiqueis nas ruas d'Ascalon, para que não se alegrem as filhas dos philisteos, para que não saltem de contentamento as filhas dos incircumcisos.

Do not tell it in Gath. Do not publish it in the streets of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.

21 Vós, montes de Gilboa, nem orvalho, nem chuva caia sobre vós, nem sobre vós, campos de offertas alçadas, pois ahi desprezivelmente foi arrojado o escudo dos valentes, o escudo de Saul, como se não fôra ungido com oleo.

You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew nor rain on you, nor fields of offerings. For there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away. The shield of Saul was not anointed with oil.

22 Do sangue dos feridos, da gordura dos valentes, nunca se retirou para traz o arco de Jonathan, nem voltou vazia a espada de Saul.

From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, Jonathan's bow did not turn back. Saul's sword did not return empty.

23 Saul e Jonathan, tão amados e queridos na sua vida, tambem na sua morte se não separaram: eram mais ligeiros do que as aguias, mais fortes do que os leões.

Saul and Jonathan, beloved and lovely, not separated. Lovely in their life, and in their death they were not separated. They were swifter than eagles. They were stronger than lions.

24 Vós, filhas d'Israel, chorae por Saul, que vos vestia de escarlata em delicias, que vos fazia trazer ornamentos de oiro sobre os vossos vestidos.

You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you luxuriously in scarlet, who put ornaments of gold on your clothing.

25 Como cairam os valentes no meio da peleja! Jonathan nos teus altos foi ferido,

How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle. Jonathan is slain on your high places.

26 Angustiado estou por ti, meu irmão Jonathan; quão amabilissimo me eras! mais maravilhoso me era o teu amor do que o amor das mulheres.

I grieve for you, my brother. You have been very pleasant to me. Your love for me was a wonder, more than the love of women.

27 Como cairam os valentes, e pereceram as armas de guerra!

How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished."
