2 Samuel 5

1 Então todas as tribus d'Israel vieram a David, a Hebron, e fallaram, dizendo: Eis-nos aqui, teus ossos e tua carne somos.

Then all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said, “Here we are, your own flesh and blood.

2 E tambem d'antes, sendo Saul ainda rei sobre nós, eras tu o que sahias e entravas com Israel; e tambem o Senhor te disse: Tu apascentarás o meu povo d'Israel, e tu serás chefe sobre Israel.

Even in times past, while Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them back. And to you the LORD said, ‘You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be ruler over them.’”

3 Assim pois todos os anciãos d'Israel vieram ao rei, a Hebron; e o rei David fez com elles alliança em Hebron, perante o Senhor: e ungiram a David rei sobre Israel.

So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, where King David made with them a covenant before the LORD. And they anointed him king over Israel.

4 Da edade de trinta annos era David quando começou a reinar: quarenta annos reinou.

David was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned forty years.

5 Em Hebron reinou sobre Judah sete annos e seis mezes, e em Jerusalem reinou trinta e tres annos sobre todo o Israel e Judah.

In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.

6 E partiu o rei com os seus homens a Jerusalem, contra os jebuseos que habitavam n'aquella terra; e fallaram a David, dizendo: Não entrarás aqui, que os cegos e os côxos te rechaçaram d'aqui (querendo dizer: Não entrará David aqui)

Now the king and his men marched to Jerusalem against the Jebusites who inhabited the land. The Jebusites said to David: “You will never get in here. Even the blind and lame can repel you.” For they thought, “David cannot get in here.”

7 Porém David tomou a fortaleza de Sião: esta é a cidade de David.

Nevertheless, David captured the fortress of Zion (that is, the City of David).

8 Porque David disse n'aquelle dia: Qualquer que ferir aos jebuseos, e chegar ao canal, e aos côxos e aos cegos, que a alma de David aborrece, será cabeça e capitão. Por isso se diz: Nem cego nem côxo entrará n'esta casa.

On that day he said, “Whoever attacks the Jebusites must use the water shaft to reach the lame and blind who are despised by David.” That is why it is said, “The blind and the lame will never enter the palace.”

9 Assim habitou David na fortaleza, e a chamou a cidade de David: e David foi edificando em redor, desde Millo até dentro.

So David took up residence in the fortress and called it the City of David. He built it up all the way around, from the supporting terraces inward.

10 E David se ia cada vez mais augmentando e crescendo, porque o Senhor Deus dos exercitos era com elle.

And David became greater and greater, for the LORD God of Hosts was with him.

11 E Hirão, rei de Tyro, enviou mensageiros a David, e madeira de cedro, e carpinteiros, e pedreiros: edificaram a David uma casa.

Now Hiram king of Tyre sent envoys to David, along with cedar logs, carpenters, and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David.

12 E entendeu David que o Senhor o confirmara rei sobre Israel, e que exaltara o seu reino por amor do seu povo.

And David realized that the LORD had established him as king over Israel and had exalted his kingdom for the sake of His people Israel.

13 E tomou David mais concubinas e mulheres de Jerusalem, depois que viera de Hebron: e nasceram a David mais filhos e filhas.

After he had arrived from Hebron, David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, and more sons and daughters were born to him.

14 E estes são os nomes dos que lhe nasceram em Jerusalem: Sammua, e Sobab, e Nathan, e Salomão,

These are the names of the children born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,

15 E Ibhar, e Elisua, e Nepheg, e Japhia,

Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,

16 E Elisama, e Eliada, e Eliphelet.

Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.

17 Ouvindo pois os philisteos que haviam ungido a David rei sobre Israel, todos os philisteos subiram em busca de David: o que ouvindo David, desceu á fortaleza.

When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, they all went in search of him; but David learned of this and went down to the stronghold.

18 E os philisteos vieram, e se estenderam pelo valle de Rephaim.

Now the Philistines had come and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim.

19 E David consultou ao Senhor, dizendo: Subirei contra os philisteos? entregar-m'os-has nas minhas mãos? E disse o Senhor a David: Sobe, porque certamente entregarei os philisteos nas tuas mãos.

So David inquired of the LORD, “Should I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand?” “Go,” replied the LORD, “for I will surely deliver the Philistines into your hand.”

20 Então veiu David a Baal-perasim; e feriu-os ali David, e disse: Rompeu o Senhor a meus inimigos diante de mim, como quem rompe aguas. Por isso chamou o nome d'aquelle logar Baal-perasim.

So David went to Baal-perazim, where he defeated the Philistines and said, “Like a bursting flood, the LORD has burst out against my enemies before me.” So he called that place Baal-perazim.

21 E deixaram ali os seus idolos; e David e os seus homens os tomaram.

There the Philistines abandoned their idols, and David and his men carried them away.

22 E os philisteos tornaram a subir, e se estenderam pelo valle de Rephaim.

Once again the Philistines came up and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim.

23 E David consultou ao Senhor, o qual disse: Não subirás: mas rodeia por detraz d'elles, e virás a elles por defronte das amoreiras.

So David inquired of the LORD, who answered, “Do not march straight up, but circle around behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.

24 E ha de ser que, ouvindo tu um estrondo de marcha pelas copas das amoreiras, então te apressarás: porque o Senhor saiu então diante de ti, a ferir o arraial dos philisteos.

As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move quickly, because this will mean that the LORD has marched out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.”

25 E fez David assim como o Senhor lhe tinha ordenado: e feriu os philisteos desde Gibeah, até chegar a Gezer.

So David did as the LORD had commanded him, and he struck down the Philistines all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.
