2 Samuel 15
1 E aconteceu depois d'isto que Absalão fez apparelhar carros e cavallos, e cincoenta homens que corressem adiante d'elle.
And it comes to pass afterward that Absalom prepares a chariot and horses for himself, and fifty men are running before him;
2 Tambem Absalão se levantou pela manhã, e parava a uma banda do caminho da porta. E succedia que a todo o homem que tinha alguma demanda para vir ao rei a juizo, o chamava Absalão a si, e lhe dizia: De que cidade és tu? E, dizendo elle: D'uma das tribus d'Israel é teu servo;
and Absalom has risen early, and stood by the side of the way of the gate, and it comes to pass, every man who has a pleading to come to the king for judgment, that Absalom calls to him and says, “Of what city [are] you?” And he says, “Your servant [is] of one of the tribes of Israel.”
3 Então Absalão lhe dizia: Olha, os teus negocios são bons e rectos, porém não tens quem te ouça da parte do rei.
And Absalom says to him, “See, your matters [are] good and straightforward—and there is none listening to you from the king.”
4 Dizia mais Absalão: Ah, quem me dera ser juiz na terra! para que viesse a mim todo o homem que tivesse demanda ou questão, para que lhe fizesse justiça.
And Absalom says, “Who makes me judge in the land, that every man who has a plea and judgment comes to me? Then I have declared him righteous.”
5 Succedia tambem que, quando alguem se chegava a elle para se inclinar diante d'elle, elle estendia a sua mão, e pegava d'elle, e o beijava.
And it has come to pass, in the drawing near of anyone to bow himself to him, that he has put forth his hand, and laid hold on him, and given a kiss to him;
6 E d'esta maneira fazia Absalão a todo o Israel que vinha ao rei para juizo: assim furtava Absalão o coração dos homens de Israel.
and Absalom does according to this thing to all Israel who come in for judgment to the king, and Absalom steals the heart of the men of Israel.
7 Aconteceu, pois, ao cabo de quarenta annos, que Absalão disse ao rei: Deixa-me ir pagar em Hebron o meu voto que votei ao Senhor.
And it comes to pass, at the end of forty years, that Absalom says to the king, “Please let me go, and I complete my vow that I vowed to YHWH in Hebron,
8 Porque, morando eu em Gesur, em Syria, votou o teu servo um voto, dizendo: Se o Senhor outra vez me fizer tornar a Jerusalem, servirei ao Senhor.
for your servant has vowed a vow in my dwelling in Geshur, in Aram, saying, If YHWH certainly brings me back to Jerusalem, then I have served YHWH.”
9 Então lhe disse o rei: Vae em paz. Levantou-se, pois, e foi para Hebron.
And the king says to him, “Go in peace”; and he rises and goes to Hebron,
10 E enviou Absalão espias por todas as tribus d'Israel, dizendo: Quando ouvirdes o som das trombetas, direis: Absalão reina em Hebron.
and Absalom sends spies through all the tribes of Israel, saying, “At your hearing the voice of the horn, then you have said, Absalom has reigned in Hebron.”
11 E de Jerusalem foram com Absalão duzentos homens convidados, porém iam na sua simplicidade, porque nada sabiam d'aquelle negocio.
And two hundred men have gone with Absalom out of Jerusalem, invited ones, and they are going in their simplicity, and have not known anything;
12 Tambem Absalão enviou por Achitophel, o gilonita, do conselho de David, á sua cidade de Gilo, estando elle sacrificando os seus sacrificios: e a conjuração se fortificava, e vinha o povo, e se augmentava com Absalão.
and Absalom sends Ahithophel the Gilonite, a counselor of David, out of his city, out of Gilo, in his sacrificing sacrifices; and the conspiracy is strong, and the people are going and increasing with Absalom.
13 Então veiu um mensageiro a David, dizendo: O coração de cada um em Israel segue a Absalão.
And he who is declaring tidings comes to David, saying, “The heart of the men of Israel has been after Absalom.”
14 Disse pois David a todos os seus servos que estavam com elle em Jerusalem: Levantae-vos, e fujamos, porque não poderiamos escapar diante de Absalão. Dae-vos pressa a caminhar, para que porventura não se apresse elle, e nos alcance, e lance sobre nós algum mal, e fira a cidade a fio de espada.
And David says to all his servants who [are] with him in Jerusalem, “Rise, and we flee, for we have no escape from the face of Absalom; hurry to go, lest he hurries, and has overtaken us, and forced evil on us, and struck the city by the mouth of the sword.”
15 Então os servos do rei disseram ao rei: Eis aqui os teus servos, para tudo quanto determinar o rei, nosso senhor.
And the servants of the king say to the king, “According to all that my lord the king chooses—behold, your servants do.”
16 E saiu o rei, com toda a sua casa, a pé: deixou porém o rei dez mulheres concubinas, para guardarem a casa.
And the king goes out, and all his household at his feet, and the king leaves ten women—concubines—to keep the house.
17 Tendo pois saido o rei com todo o povo a pé, pararam n'um logar distante.
And the king goes out, and all the people at his feet, and they stand still at the farthest off house.
18 E todos os seus servos iam a seu lado, como tambem todos os cheretheos e todos os peletheos: e todos os getheos, seiscentos homens que vieram de Gath a pé, caminhavam diante do rei.
And all his servants are passing on at his side, and all the Cherethite, and all the Pelethite, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who came at his feet from Gath, are passing on at the front of the king.
19 Disse pois o rei a Ittai, o getheo: Porque irias tu tambem comnosco? Volta, e fica-te com o rei, porque estranho és, e tambem te tornarás a teu logar.
And the king says to Ittai the Gittite, “Why do you go—you also—with us? Return and abide with the king, for you [are] a stranger, and also an exile, you—to your place.
20 Hontem vieste, e te levaria eu hoje comnosco a caminhar? Pois força me é ir aonde quer que podér ir: volta, pois, e torna a levar teus irmãos comtigo, com beneficencia e fidelidade.
Your coming in [was only] yesterday, and should I move you to go with us today, since I am going over [to] where [I do not know where] I am going? Return, and take your brothers back. Kindness and truth [be] with you.”
21 Respondeu porém Ittai ao rei, e disse: Vive o Senhor, e vive o rei meu senhor, que no logar em que estiver o rei meu senhor, seja para morte seja para vida, ahi certamente estará tambem o teu servidor.
And Ittai answers the king and says, “YHWH lives, and my lord the king lives, surely in the place where my lord the king is—if for death, if for life, surely your servant is there.”
22 Então David disse a Ittai: Vem pois, e passa adiante. Assim passou Ittai, o getheo, e todos os seus homens, e todas as creanças que havia com elle.
And David says to Ittai, “Go and pass over”; and Ittai the Gittite passes over, and all his men, and all the infants who [are] with him.
23 E toda a terra chorava a grandes vozes, passando todo o povo: tambem o rei passou o ribeiro de Cedron, e passou todo o povo na direcção do caminho do deserto.
And all the land is weeping [with] a great voice, and all the people are passing over; and the king is passing over through the Brook of Kidron, and all the people are passing over on the front of the way of the wilderness;
24 Eis que tambem Zadok ali estava, e com elle todos os levitas que levavam a arca do concerto de Deus; e pozeram ali a arca de Deus, e subiu Abiathar, até que todo o povo acabou de passar da cidade.
and behold, also Zadok, and all the Levites with him, are carrying the Ark of the Covenant of God, and they make the Ark of God firm, and Abiathar goes up, until the completion of all the people to pass over out of the city.
25 Então disse o rei a Zadok: Torna a levar a arca de Deus á cidade; que, se achar graça nos olhos do Senhor, elle me tornará a trazer para lá, e me deixará vêr a ella e a sua habitação.
And the king says to Zadok, “Take back the Ark of God to the city; if I find grace in the eyes of YHWH, then He has brought me back, and shown me it and His habitation;
26 Se porém disser assim: Não tenho prazer em ti; eis-me aqui, faça de mim como parecer bem aos seus olhos.
and if thus He says, I have not delighted in you; here I [am], He does to me as [is] good in His eyes.”
27 Disse mais o rei a Zadok, o sacerdote: Não és tu porventura o vidente? torna pois em paz para a cidade, e comvosco tambem vossos dois filhos, Ahimaas, teu filho, e Jonathan, filho d'Abiathar.
And the king says to Zadok the priest, “Are you a seer? Return to the city in peace, and your son Ahimaaz, and Jonathan son of Abiathar, your two sons with you;
28 Olhae que me demorarei nas campinas do deserto até que tenha novas vossas.
see, I am lingering in the plains of the wilderness until the coming in of a word from you to declare to me.”
29 Zadok pois e Abiathar tornaram a levar para Jerusalem a arca de Deus: e ficaram ali.
And Zadok takes back—and Abiathar—the Ark of God to Jerusalem, and they abide there.
30 E subiu David pela subida das oliveiras, subindo e chorando, e com a cabeça coberta; e caminhava com os pés descalços: e todo o povo que ia com elle cobria cada um a sua cabeça, e subiam chorando sem cessar.
And David is going up in the ascent of the [Mount of] Olives, going up and weeping, and he has the head covered, and he is going barefooted, and all the people who [are] with him have each covered his head, and have gone up, going up and weeping;
31 Então fizeram saber a David, dizendo: Tambem Achitophel está entre os que se conjuraram com Absalão. Pelo que disse David: Ó Senhor, enlouquece o conselho de Achitophel.
and David declared, saying, “Ahithophel [is] among the conspirators with Absalom”; and David says, “Please make the counsel of Ahithophel foolish, O YHWH.”
32 E aconteceu, que chegando David ao cume, para adorar ali a Deus, eis que Husai, o archita, veiu encontrar-se com elle com o vestido rasgado e terra sobre a cabeça.
And it comes to pass, David has come to the top, where he bows himself to God, and behold, Hushai the Archite [is there] to meet him, [with] his coat torn, and earth on his head;
33 E disse-lhe David: Se passares comigo, ser-me-has pesado.
and David says to him, “If you have passed on with me then you have been for a burden on me,
34 Porém se voltares para a cidade, e disseres a Absalão: Eu serei, ó rei, teu servo; bem fui d'antes servo de teu pae, mas agora serei teu servo: dissipar-me-has então o conselho de Achitophel.
and if you return to the city and have said to Absalom, I am your servant, O king; I [am] also servant of your father until now, and presently, I [am] also your servant; then you have made void the counsel of Ahithophel for me;
35 E não estão ali comtigo Zadok e Abiathar, sacerdotes? E será que todas as coisas que ouvires da casa do rei, farás saber a Zadok e a Abiathar, sacerdotes.
and are Zadok and Abiathar the priests not with you there? And it has been, the whole of the matter that you hear from the house of the king you declare to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests.
36 Eis que estão tambem ali com elles seus dois filhos, Ahimaas filho de Zadok, e Jonathan filho de Abiathar: pela mão d'elles aviso me mandareis pois de todas as coisas que ouvirdes.
Behold, their two sons [are] there with them: Ahimaaz to Zadok, and Jonathan to Abiathar, and you have sent to me by their hand anything that you hear.”
37 Husai pois, amigo de David, veiu para a cidade: e Absalão entrou em Jerusalem.
And Hushai, David’s friend, comes to the city, and Absalom comes to Jerusalem.
