Josué 6
1 Ora Jericó cerrou-se, e estava cerrada por causa dos filhos d'Israel: nenhum sahia nem entrava.
Now Jericho was close shut up and fenced, for fear of the children of Israel, and no man durst go out or come in.
2 Então disse o Senhor a Josué: Olha, tenho dado na tua mão a Jericó e ao seu rei, os seus valentes e valorosos.
And the Lord said to Josue: Behold I have given into thy hands Jericho, and the king thereof, and all the valiant men.
3 Vós pois, todos os homens de guerra, rodeareis a cidade, cercando a cidade uma vez: assim fareis por seis dias.
Go round about the city, all ye fighting men, once a day: so shall ye do for six days.
4 E sete sacerdotes levarão sete buzinas de carneiros diante da arca, e no setimo dia rodeareis a cidade sete vezes: e os sacerdotes tocarão as buzinas.
And on the seventh day the priests shall take the seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee, and shall go before the ark of the covenant: and you shall go about the city seven times, and the priests shall sound the trumpets.
5 E será que, tocando-se longamente a buzina de carneiro, ouvindo vós o sonido da buzina, todo o povo gritará com grande grita: e o muro da cidade cairá abaixo de si, e o povo subirá n'elle, cada qual em frente de si.
And when the voice of the trumpet shall give a longer and broken tune, and shall sound in your ears, all the people shall shout together with a very great shout, and the walls of the city shall fall to the ground, and they shall enter in every one at the place against which they shall stand.
6 Então chamou Josué, filho de Nun, aos sacerdotes, e disse-lhes: Levae a arca do concerto; e sete sacerdotes levem sete buzinas de carneiros, diante da arca do Senhor.
Then Josue the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them: Take the ark of the covenant: and let seven other priests take the seven trumpets of the jubilee, and march before the ark of the Lord.
7 E disse ao povo: Passae e rodeae a cidade; e quem estiver armado, passe diante da arca do Senhor.
And he said to the people: Go, and compass the city, armed, marching before the ark of the Lord.
8 E assim foi, como Josué dissera ao povo, que os sete sacerdotes, levando as sete buzinas de carneiros diante do Senhor, passaram, e tocaram as buzinas: e a arca do concerto do Senhor os seguia.
And when Josue had ended his words, and the seven priests blew the seven trumpets before the ark of the covenant of the Lord,
9 E os armados iam adiante dos sacerdotes, que tocavam as buzinas: e a rectaguarda seguia após da arca, andando e tocando as buzinas.
And all the armed men went before, the rest of the common people followed the ark, and the sound of the trumpets was heard on all sides.
10 Porém ao povo Josué tinha dado ordem, dizendo: Não gritareis, nem fareis ouvir a vossa voz, nem sairá palavra alguma da vossa bocca, até ao dia que eu vos diga: Gritae. Então gritareis.
But Josue had commanded the people, saying: You shall not shout, nor shall your voice be heard, nor any word go out of your mouth: until the day come wherein I shall say to you: Cry, and shout.
11 E fez a arca do Senhor rodeiar a cidade, rodeiando-a uma vez: e vieram ao arraial, e passaram a noite no arraial.
So the ark of the Lord went about the city once a day, and returning into the camp, abode there.
12 Depois Josué se levantou de madrugada, e os sacerdotes levaram a arca do Senhor.
And Josue rising before day, the priests took the ark of the Lord,
13 E os sete sacerdotes, que levavam as sete buzinas de carneiros diante da arca do Senhor, iam andando, e tocavam as buzinas, e os armados iam adiante d'elles, e a rectaguarda seguia atraz da arca do Senhor; os sacerdotes iam andando e tocando as buzinas.
And seven of them seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee: and they went before the ark of the Lord walking and sounding the trumpets: and the armed men went before them, and the rest of the common people followed the ark, and they blew the trumpets.
14 Assim rodeiaram outra vez a cidade no segundo dia e tornaram para o arraial: e assim fizeram seis dias.
And they went round about the city the second day once, and returned into the camp. So they did six days.
15 E succedeu que ao setimo dia madrugaram ao subir da alva, e da mesma maneira rodeiaram a cidade sete vezes: n'aquelle dia sómente rodeiaram a cidade sete vezes.
But the seventh day, rising up early, they went about the city, as it was ordered, seven times.
16 E succedeu que, tocando os sacerdotes a setima vez as buzinas, disse Josué ao povo: Gritae; porque o Senhor vos tem dado a cidade.
And when in the seventh going about the priests sounded with the trumpets, Josue said to all Israel: Shout: for the Lord hath delivered the city to you:
17 Porém a cidade será anathema ao Senhor, ella e tudo quanto houver n'ella: sómente a prostituta Rahab viverá, ella e todos os que com ella estiverem em casa; porquanto escondeu os mensageiros que enviámos.
And let this city be an anathema, and all things that are in it, to the Lord. Let only Rahab the harlot live, with all that are with her in the house: for she hid the messengers whom we sent.
18 Tão sómente guardae-vos do anathema, para que não vos mettaes em anathema tomando d'ella, e assim façaes maldito o arraial de Israel, e o turbeis.
But beware ye lest you touch ought of those things that are forbidden, and you be guilty of transgression, and all the camp of Israel be under sin, and be troubled.
19 Porém toda a prata, e o oiro, e os vasos de metal, e de ferro, são consagrados ao Senhor: irão ao thesouro do Senhor.
But whatsoever gold or silver there shall be, or vessels of brass and iron, let it be consecrated to the Lord, laid up in his treasures.
20 Gritou pois o povo, tocando os sacerdotes as buzinas: e succedeu que, ouvindo o povo o sonido da buzina, gritou o povo com grande grita; e o muro caiu abaixo, e o povo subiu á cidade, cada qual em frente de si, e tomaram a cidade.
So all the people making a shout, and the trumpets sounding, when the voice and the sound thundered in the ears of the multitude, the walls forthwith fell down: and every man went up by the place that was over against him: and they took the city,
21 E, tudo quanto na cidade havia, destruiram totalmente ao fio da espada, desde o homem até á mulher, desde o menino até ao velho, e até ao boi e gado miudo, e ao jumento.
And killed all that were in it, man and woman, young and old. The oxen also and the sheep, and the asses, they slew with the edge of the sword.
22 Josué, porém, disse aos dois homens que tinham espiado a terra: Entrae na casa da mulher prostituta, e tirae de lá a mulher com tudo quanto tiver, como lhe tendes jurado.
But Josue said to the two men that had been sent for spies: Go into the harlot’s house, and bring her out, and all things that are hers, as you assured her by oath.
23 Então entraram os mancebos espias, e tiraram a Rahab, e a seu pae, e a sua mãe, e a seus irmãos, e a tudo quanto tinha; tiraram tambem a todas as suas familias, e pozeram-n'os fóra do arraial d'Israel.
And the young men went in and brought out Rahab, and her parents, her brethren also and all her goods and her kindred, and made them to stay without the camp.
24 Porém a cidade e tudo quanto havia n'ella queimaram-n'o a fogo: tão sómente a prata, e o oiro, e os vasos de metal e de ferro, deram para o thesouro da casa do Senhor.
But they burned the city, and all things that were therein; except the gold and silver, and vessels of brass and iron, which they consecrated into the treasury of the Lord.
25 Assim deu Josué vida á prostituta Rahab, e á familia de seu pae, e a tudo quanto tinha; e habitou no meio de Israel até ao dia de hoje: porquanto escondera os mensageiros que Josué tinha enviado a espiar a Jericó.
But Josue saved Rahab the harlot and her father’s house, and all she had, and they dwelt in the midst of Israel until this present day: because she hid the messengers whom he had sent to spy out Jericho. At that time, Josue made an imprecation, saying:
26 E n'aquelle tempo Josué os esconjurou, dizendo: Maldito diante do Senhor seja o homem que se levantar e reedificar esta cidade de Jericó: no seu primogenito a fundará, e no seu filho mais novo lhe porá as portas.
Cursed be the man before the Lord, that shall raise up and build the city of Jericho. In his firstborn may he lay the foundation thereof, and in the last of his children set up its gates.
27 Assim era o Senhor com Josué: e corria a sua fama por toda a terra.
And the Lord was with Josue, and his name was noised throughout all the land.
