2 Samuel 10
1 E aconteceu depois d'isto que morreu o rei dos filhos de Ammon, e seu filho Hanun reinou em seu logar.
And it came to pass after this that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his stead.
2 Então disse David: Usarei de beneficencia com Hanun, filho de Nahas, como seu pae usou de beneficencia comigo. E enviou David a consolal-o, pelo ministerio de seus servos, ácerca de seu pae: e vieram os servos de David á terra dos filhos de Ammon.
And David said, I will shew kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father shewed kindness to me. And David sent to comfort him by the hand of his servants for his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon.
3 Então disseram os principes dos filhos d'Ammon a seu senhor, Hanun: Porventura honra David a teu pae aos teus olhos, porque te enviou consoladores? porventura não te enviou David os seus servos para reconhecerem esta cidade, e para espial-a, e para transtornal-a?
And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, Is it, in thine eyes, to honour thy father that David has sent comforters to thee? Is it not to search the city and to spy it out, and to overthrow it, that David has sent his servants to thee?
4 Então tomou Hanun os servos de David, e lhes rapou metade da barba, e lhes cortou metade dos vestidos, até ás nadegas, e os despediu.
And Hanun took David's servants, and had the one half of their beards shaved off, and their raiment cut off in the midst, as far as their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 O que fazendo saber a David, enviou a encontral-os; porque estavam estes homens sobremaneira envergonhados; e disse o rei: Deixae-vos estar em Jericó, até que vos torne a crescer a barba; e então vinde.
And they told [it] to David; and he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Abide at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
6 Vendo pois os filhos de Ammon, que se tinham feito abominaveis para David, enviaram os filhos d'Ammon, e alugaram dos syros de Beth-rechob e dos syros de Zoba vinte mil homens de pé, e do rei de Maaca mil homens e dos homens de Tob doze mil homens.
And the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David; and the children of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Beth-Rehob, and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah [with] a thousand men, and the men of Tob twelve thousand men.
7 O que ouvindo David, enviou a Joab e a todo o exercito dos valentes.
And David heard [of it], and he sent Joab, and all the host, the mighty men.
8 E sairam os filhos d'Ammon, e ordenaram a batalha á entrada da porta: mas os syros de Zoba e Rechob, e os homens de Tob e Maaca estavam á parte no campo.
And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the gate; and the Syrians of Zoba and of Rehob, and the men of Tob and Maacah were by themselves in the field.
9 Vendo pois Joab que estava preparada contra elle a frente da batalha, por diante e por detraz, escolheu d'entre todos os escolhidos de Israel, e formou-os em linha contra os syros.
And Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind; and he chose out of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians;
10 E o resto do povo entregou na mão de Abisai seu irmão, o qual formou em linha contra os filhos de Ammon.
and the rest of the people he gave into the hand of Abishai his brother that he might array them against the children of Ammon.
11 E disse: Se os syros forem mais fortes do que eu, tu me virás em soccorro; e, se os filhos de Ammon forem mais fortes do que tu, irei a soccorrer-te a ti.
And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me; and if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will come and help thee.
12 Esforça-te, pois, e esforcemo-nos pelo nosso povo, e pelas cidades de nosso Deus: e faça o Senhor então o que bem parecer aos seus olhos.
Be strong, and let us shew ourselves valiant for our people and for the cities of our God; and Jehovah do what is good in his sight.
13 Então se achegou Joab, e o povo que estava com elle, á peleja contra os syros; e fugiram de diante d'elle.
And Joab drew near, and the people that were with him, unto the battle against the Syrians; and they fled before him.
14 E, vendo os filhos d'Ammon que os syros fugiam, tambem elles fugiram de diante de Abisai, e entraram na cidade: e voltou Joab dos filhos d'Ammon, e veiu para Jerusalem.
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians fled, they fled before Abishai, and entered into the city. And Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.
15 Vendo pois os syros que foram feridos diante d'Israel, tornaram a refazer-se.
And when the Syrians saw that they were routed before Israel, they gathered themselves together.
16 E enviou Hadadezer, e fez sair os syros que estavam da outra banda do rio, e vieram a Helam: e Sobach, chefe do exercito de Hadadezer, marchava diante d'elles.
And Hadarezer sent, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river; and they came to Helam; and Shobach the captain of the host of Hadarezer [went] before them.
17 Do que informado David, ajuntou a todo o Israel, e passou o Jordão, e veiu a Helam: e os syros se pozeram em ordem contra David, e pelejaram com elle.
And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over the Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Syrians set themselves in array against David, and fought with him.
18 Porém os syros fugiram de diante de Israel, e David feriu d'entre os syros aos homens de setecentos carros, e quarenta mil homens de cavallo: tambem ao mesmo Sobach, general do exercito, feriu, e morreu ali.
And the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven hundred [in] chariots, and forty thousand horsemen, and smote Shobach the captain of their host, who died there.
19 Vendo pois todos os reis, servos de Hadadezer, que foram feridos diante de Israel, fizeram paz com Israel, e o serviram: e temeram os syros de soccorrer mais aos filhos de Ammon.
And all the kings that were servants to Hadarezer saw that they were routed before Israel, and they made peace with Israel, and served them. And the Syrians feared to help the children of Ammon any more.
