2 Samuel 2
1 E succedeu depois d'isto que David consultou ao Senhor, dizendo: Subirei a alguma das cidades de Judah? E disse-lhe o Senhor: Sobe. E disse David: Para onde subirei? E disse: Para Hebron.
And it came to pass after this that David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up into one of the cities of Juda? and the Lord said to him, Go up. And David said, Whither shall I go up? and he said, To Chebron.
2 E subiu David para lá, e tambem as suas duas mulheres, Achinoam. a jizreelita, e Abigail, a mulher de Nabal, o carmelita.
And David went up there to Chebron, [he] and both his wives, Achinaam the Jezraelitess, and Abigaia the wife of Nabal the Carmelite,
3 Fez tambem David subir os homens que estavam com elle, cada um com a sua familia: e habitaram nas cidades de Hebron.
and the men that were with him, every one and his family; and they lived in the cities of Chebron.
4 Então vieram os homens de Judah, e ungiram ali a David rei sobre a casa de Judah. E deram avisos a David, dizendo: Os homens de Jabez-gilead são os que sepultaram a Saul.
And the men of Judea come, and anoint David there to reign over the house of Juda; and they reported to David, saying, The men of Jabis of the country of Galaad have buried Saul.
5 Então enviou David mensageiros aos homens de Jabez-gilead, e disse-lhes: Bemditos sejaes vós do Senhor, que fizestes tal beneficencia a vosso senhor, a Saul, e o sepultastes!
And David sent messengers to the rulers of Jabis of the country of Galaad, and David said to them, Blessed be you of the Lord, because you have wrought this mercy toward your lord, even toward Saul the anointed of the Lord, and you have buried him and Jonathan his son.
6 Agora, pois, o Senhor use comvosco de beneficencia e fidelidade: e tambem eu vos farei este bem, porquanto fizestes isto.
And now may the Lord deal in mercy and truth towards you: and I also will requite towards you this good deed, because you have done this.
7 Esforcem-se pois agora as vossas mãos, e sêde homens valentes, pois Saul, vosso senhor, é morto, mas tambem os da casa de Judah já me ungiram a mim rei sobre si.
And now let your hands be made strong, and be valiant; for your master Saul is dead, and moreover the house of Juda have anointed me to be king over them.
8 Porém Abner, filho de Ner, capitão do exercito de Saul, tomou a Isboseth, filho de Saul, e o fez passar a Mahanaim,
But Abenner, the son of Ner, the commander-in-chief of Saul's army, took Jebosthe son of Saul, and brought him up from the camp to Manaem
9 E o constituiu rei sobre Gilead, e sobre os assuritas, e sobre Jizreel, e sobre Ephraim, e sobre Benjamin, e sobre todo o Israel.
and made him king over the land of Galaad, and over Thasiri, and over Jezrael, and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over all Israel.
10 Da edade de quarenta annos era Isboseth, filho de Saul, quando começou a reinar sobre Israel, e reinou dois annos: mas os da casa de Judah seguiam a David.
Jebosthe, Saul's son [was] forty years old, when he reigned over Israel; and he reigned two years, but not over the house of Juda, who followed David.
11 E foi o numero dos dias que David reinou em Hebron, sobre a casa de Judah, sete annos e seis mezes.
And the days which David reigned in Chebron over the house of Juda were seven years and six months.
12 Então saiu Abner, filho de Ner, com os servos de Isboseth, filho de Saul, de Mahanaim a Gibeon.
And Abenner the son of Ner went forth, and the servants of Jebosthe the son of Saul, from Manaem to Gabaon.
13 Sairam tambem Joab, filho de Zeruia, e os servos de David, e se encontraram uns com os outros perto do tanque de Gibeon: e pararam estes d'esta banda do tanque, e os outros d'aquella banda do tanque.
And Joab the son of Saruia, and the servants of David, went forth from Chebron, and met them at the fountain of Gabaon, at the same place: and these sat down by the fountain on this side, and those by the fountain on that side.
14 E disse Abner a Joab: Deixa levantar os mancebos, e joguem diante de nós. E disse Joab: Levantem-se.
And Abenner said to Joab, Let now the young men arise, and play before us. And Joab said, Let them arise.
15 Então se levantaram, e passaram, por conta, doze de Benjamin, da parte d'Isboseth, filho de Saul, e doze dos servos de David.
And there arose and passed over by number twelve of the children of Benjamin, belonging to Jebosthe the son of Saul, and twelve of the servants of David.
16 E cada um lançou mão da cabeça do outro, metteu-lhe a espada pela ilharga, e cairam juntamente: d'onde se chamou áquelle logar Helkath-hazzurim, que está junto a Gibeon.
And they seized every one the head of his neighbor with his hand, and his sword [was thrust] into the side of his neighbor, and they fall down together: and the name of that place was called The portion of the treacherous ones, which is in Gabaon.
17 E seguiu-se n'aquelle dia uma crua peleja: porém Abner e os homens de Israel foram feridos diante dos servos de David.
And the battle was very severe on that day; and Abenner and the men of Israel were worsted before the servants of David.
18 E estavam ali os tres filhos de Zeruia, Joab, Abisai, e Asael: e Asael era ligeiro de pés, como uma das cabras montezes que ha no campo.
And there were there the three sons of Saruia, Joab, and Abessa, and Asael: and Asael was swift in his feet as a roe in the field.
19 E Asael perseguiu a Abner: e não declinou de detraz de Abner, nem para a direita nem para a esquerda.
And Asael followed after Abenner, and turned not to go to the right hand or to the left from following Abenner.
20 E Abner, olhando para traz, disse: És tu este Asael? E disse elle: Eu sou.
And Abenner looked behind him, and said, Are you Asael himself? and he said, I am.
21 Então lhe disse Abner: Desvia-te para a direita, ou para a esquerda, e lança mão d'um dos mancebos, e toma os seus despojos. Porém Asael não quiz desviar-se de detraz d'elle.
And Abenner said to him, Turn you to the right hand or to the left, and lay hold for yourself on one of the young men, and take to yourself his armor: but Asel would not turn back from following him.
22 Então Abner tornou a dizer a Asael: Desvia-te de detraz de mim: porque hei de eu ferir-te e dar comtigo em terra? e como levantaria eu o meu rosto diante de Joab teu irmão?
And Abenner said yet again to Asael, Stand aloof from me, lest I strike you to the ground? and how should I lift up my face to Joab?
23 Porém, não se querendo elle desviar, Abner o feriu com o couto da lança pela quinta costella, e a lança lhe saiu por detraz, e caiu ali, e morreu n'aquelle mesmo logar; e succedeu que todos os que chegavam ao logar onde Asael caiu e morreu paravam.
And what does this mean? return to Joab your brother? But he would not stand aloof; and Abenner smites him with the hinder end of the spear on the loins, and the spear went out behind him, and he falls there and dies on the spot: and it came to pass that every one that came to the place where Asael fell and died, stood still.
24 Porém Joab e Abisai perseguiram a Abner: e poz-se o sol, chegando elles ao outeiro de Amma, que está diante de Giah, junto ao caminho do deserto de Gibeon.
And Joab and Abessa pursued after Abenner, and the sun went down: and they went as far as the hill of Amman, which is in the front of Gai, by the desert way of Gabaon.
25 E os filhos de Benjamin se ajuntaram detraz d'Abner, e fizeram um batalhão, e pozeram-se no cume d'um outeiro.
And the children of Benjamin who followed Abenner gather themselves together, and they formed themselves into one body, and stood on the top of a hill.
26 Então Abner gritou a Joab, e disse: Consumirá a espada para sempre? não sabes tu que por fim haverá amargura? e até quando não has de dizer ao povo que se torne de detraz de seus irmãos?
And Abenner called Joab, and said, Shall the sword devour perpetually? know you not that it will be bitter at last? How long then will you refuse to tell the people to turn from following our brethren?
27 E disse Joab: Vive Deus, que, se não tivesses fallado, já desde pela manhã o povo teria cessado cada um de perseguir a seu irmão.
And Joab said, As the Lord lives, if you had not spoken, even from the morning the people had gone up every one from following his brother.
28 Então Joab tocou a bozina, e todo o povo parou, e não perseguiram mais a Israel: e tão pouco pelejaram mais.
And Joab sounded the trumpet, and all the people departed, and did not pursue after Israel, and did not fight any longer.
29 E caminharam Abner e os seus homens toda aquella noite pela planicie: e, passando o Jordão, caminharam por todo o Bithron, e vieram a Mahanaim.
And Abenner and his men departed at evening, [and went] all that night, and crossed over Jordan, and went along the whole adjacent [country], and they come to the camp.
30 Tambem Joab se tornou de detraz d'Abner, e ajuntou todo o povo: e dos servos de David faltaram dezenove homens, e Asael.
And Joab returned from following Abenner, and he assembled all the people, and there were missing of the people of David, nineteen men, and Asael.
31 Porém os servos de David feriram d'entre os de Benjamin, e d'entre os homens d'Abner, a trezentos e sessenta homens, que ali ficaram mortos.
And the servants of David struck of the children of Benjamin, of the men of Abenner, three hundred and sixty men belonging to him.
32 E levantaram a Asael, e sepultaram-n'o na sepultura de seu pae, que estava em Beth-lehem: e Joab e seus homens caminharam toda aquella noite, e amanheceu-lhes em Hebron.
And they take up Asael, and bury him in the tomb of his father in Bethleem. And Joab and the men with him went all the night, and the morning rose upon them in Chebron.
