Juízes 20
1 Então todos os filhos d'Israel sairam, e a congregação se ajuntou, como se fôra um só homem, desde Dan até Berseba como tambem a terra de Gilead, ao Senhor em Mispah.
And all the children of Israel went out, and all the congregation was gathered as one man, from Dan even to Bersabee, and in the land of Galaad, to the Lord at Massepha.
2 E dos cantos de todo o povo se apresentaram de todas as tribus d'Israel na congregação do povo de Deus quatrocentos mil homens de pé que arrancavam a espada.
And all the tribes of Israel stood before the Lord in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen that drew sword.
3 (Ouviram pois os filhos de Benjamin que os filhos d'Israel haviam subido a Mispah) E disseram os filhos de Israel: Fallae, como succedeu esta maldade?
And the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel were gone up to Massepha: and the children of Israel came and said, Tell us, where did this wickedness take place?
4 Então respondeu o homem levita, marido da mulher que fôra morta, e disse: Cheguei com a minha concubina a Gibeah cidade de Benjamin, para passar a noite;
And the Levite, the husband of the woman that was slain, answered and said, I and my concubine went to Gabaa of Benjamin to lodge.
5 E os cidadãos de Gibeah se levantaram contra mim, e cercaram a casa de noite: intentaram matar-me, e violaram a minha concubina, de maneira que morreu.
And the men of Gabaa rose up against me, and compassed the house by night against me; they wished to kill me, and they have humbled my concubine, and she is dead.
6 Então peguei na minha concubina, e fil-a em pedaços, e a enviei por toda a terra da herança d'Israel: porquanto fizeram tal maleficio e loucura em Israel.
And I laid hold of my concubine, and divided her in pieces, and sent [the parts] into every coast of the inheritance of the children of Israel; for they have wrought lewdness and abomination in Israel.
7 Eis que todos sois filhos d'Israel: dae aqui a vossa palavra e conselho.
Behold, all you [are] children of Israel; and consider and take counsel here among yourselves.
8 Então todo o povo se levantou como um só homem, dizendo: Nenhum de nós irá á sua tenda nem nenhum de nós se retirará á sua casa.
And all the people rose up as one man, saying, No one of us shall return to his tent, and no one of us shall return to his house.
9 Porém isto é o que faremos a Gibeah: procederemos contra ella por sorte.
And now this [is] the thing which shall be done in Gabaa; we will go up against it by lot.
10 E tomaremos dez homens de cem de todas as tribus d'Israel, e cem de mil, e mil de dez mil, para tomarem mantimento para o povo: para que, vindo elles a Gibeah de Benjamin, lhe façam conforme a toda a loucura que tem feito em Israel.
Moreover we will take ten men for a hundred for all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred for a thousand, and a thousand for ten thousand, to take provision, to cause them to come to Gabaa of Benjamin, to do to it according to all the abomination, which they wrought in Israel.
11 Assim ajuntaram-se contra esta cidade todos os homens d'Israel, alliados como um só homem.
And all the men of Israel were gathered to the city as one man.
12 E as tribus d'Israel enviaram homens por toda a tribu de Benjamin, dizendo: Que maldade é esta que se fez entre vós?
And the tribes of Israel sent men through the whole tribe of Benjamin, saying, What [is] this wickedness that has been wrought among you?
13 Dae-nos pois agora aquelles homens, filhos de Belial, que estão em Gibeah, para que os matemos, e tiremos d'Israel o mal: porém os filhos de Benjamin não quizeram ouvir a voz de seus irmãos, os filhos d'Israel.
Now then give up the men the sons of transgressors that are in Gabaa, and we will put them to death, and purge out wickedness from Israel: but the children of Benjamin consented not to listen to the voice of their brethren the children of Israel.
14 Antes os filhos de Benjamin se ajuntaram das cidades em Gibeah, para sairem a pelejar contra os filhos d'Israel.
And the children of Benjamin were gathered from their cities to Gabaa, to go forth to fight with the children of Israel.
15 E contaram-se n'aquelle dia os filhos de Benjamin, das cidades, vinte e seis mil homens que arrancavam a espada, afóra os moradores de Gibeah, de que se contaram setecentos homens escolhidos.
And the children of Benjamin from their cities were numbered in that day, twenty-three thousand, [every] man drawing a sword, besides the inhabitants of Gabaa, who were numbered seven hundred chosen men of all the people, able to use both hands alike;
16 Entre todo este povo havia setecentos homens escolhidos, canhotos, os quaes todos atiravam com a funda uma pedra a um cabello, e não erravam.
All these could sling with stones at a hair, and not miss.
17 E contaram-se dos homens d'Israel, afóra os de Benjamin, quatrocentos mil homens que arrancavam da espada, e todos elles homens de guerra.
And the men of Israel, exclusive of Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men that drew sword; all these [were] men of war.
18 E levantaram-se os filhos d'Israel, e subiram a Beth-el, e perguntaram a Deus, e disseram: Quem d'entre nós subirá o primeiro a pelejar contra Benjamin? E disse o Senhor: Judah subirá primeiro.
And they arose and went up to Baethel, and enquired of God: and the children of Israel said, Who shall go up for us first to fight with the children of Benjamin? And the Lord said, Juda shall go up first as leader.
19 Levantaram-se pois os filhos d'Israel pela manhã, e acamparam-se contra Gibeah.
And the children of Israel rose up in the morning, and encamped against Gabaa.
20 E os homens d'Israel sairam á peleja contra Benjamin: e ordenaram os homens d'Israel contra elles a peleja ao pé de Gibeah.
And they went out, all the men of Israel, to fight with Benjamin, and engaged with them at Gabaa.
21 Então os filhos de Benjamin sairam de Gibeah, e derribaram por terra n'aquelle dia vinte e dois mil homens d'Israel.
And the sons of Benjamin went forth from Gabaa, and they destroyed in Israel on that day two and twenty thousand men down to the ground.
22 Porém esforçou-se o povo dos homens d'Israel, e tornaram a ordenar a peleja no logar onde no primeiro dia a tinham ordenado.
And the men of Israel strengthened themselves, and again engaged in battle in the place where they had engaged on the first day.
23 E subiram os filhos d'Israel, e choraram perante o Senhor até á tarde, e perguntaram ao Senhor, dizendo: Tornar-me-hei a chegar á peleja contra os filhos de Benjamin, meu irmão? E disse o Senhor: Subi contra elle.
And the children of Israel went up, and wept before the Lord till evening, and enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall we again draw near to battle with our brethren the children of Benjamin? and the Lord said, Go up against them.
24 Chegaram-se pois os filhos d'Israel aos filhos de Benjamin, no dia seguinte.
And the children of Israel advanced against the children of Benjamin on the second day.
25 Tambem os de Benjamin no dia seguinte lhes sairam ao encontro fóra de Gibeah, e derribaram ainda por terra mais dezoito mil homens, todos dos que arrancavam a espada.
And the children of Benjamin went forth to meet them from Gabaa on the second day, and destroyed of the children of Israel yet further eighteen thousand men down to the ground: all these drew sword.
26 Então todos os filhos de Israel, e todo o povo, subiram, e vieram a Beth-el, e choraram, e estiveram ali perante o Senhor, e jejuaram aquelle dia até á tarde: e offereceram holocaustos e offertas pacificas perante o Senhor.
And the children of Israel and all the people went up, and came to Baethel; and they wept, and sat there before the Lord; and they fasted on that day until evening, and offered whole burnt offerings and perfect sacrifices, before the Lord,
27 E os filhos d'Israel perguntaram ao Senhor (porquanto a arca do concerto de Deus estava ali n'aquelles dias;
for the ark of the Lord God [was] there in those days,
28 E Phineas, filho d'Eleazar, filho d'Aarão, estava perante elle n'aquelles dias), dizendo: Sairei ainda mais a pelejar contra os filhos de Benjamin, meu irmão, ou pararei? E disse o Senhor; Subi, que ámanhã eu t'o entregarei na mão
and Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron stood before it in those days; and the children of Israel enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall we yet again go forth to fight with our brethren the sons of Benjamin? and the Lord said, Go up, to-morrow I will give them into your hands.
29 Então Israel poz emboscadas em redor de Gibeah.
And the children of Israel set an ambush against Gabaa round about [it].
30 E subiram os filhos d'Israel ao terceiro dia contra os filhos de Benjamin, e ordenaram a peleja junto a Gibeah, como das outras vezes.
And the children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin on the third day, and arrayed themselves against Gabaa as before.
31 Então os filhos de Benjamin sairam ao encontro do povo, e desviaram-se da cidade: e começaram a ferir alguns do povo, atravessando-os, como das outras vezes, pelos caminhos (um dos quaes sobe para Beth-el, e o outro para Gibeah pelo campo), alguns trinta dos homens d'Israel.
And the children of Benjamin went out to meet the people, and were all drawn out of the city, and began to strike and kill the people as before in the roads, whereof one goes up to Baethel, and one to Gabaa in the field, about thirty men of Israel.
32 Então os filhos de Benjamin disseram: Vão derrotados diante de nós como d'antes. Porém os filhos d'Israel disseram: Fujamos, e desviemol-os da cidade para os caminhos.
And the children of Benjamin said, They fall before us as at the first: but the children of Israel said, Let us flee, and draw them out from the city into the roads; and they did so.
33 Então todos os homens de Israel se levantaram do seu logar, e ordenaram, a peleja em Baal-tamar: e a emboscada d'Israel saiu do seu logar, da caverna de Gibeah.
And all the men rose up out of their places, and engaged in Baal Thamar; and the liers in wait of Israel advanced from their place from Maraagabe.
34 E dez mil homens escolhidos de todo o Israel vieram contra Gibeah, e a peleja se engraveceu: porém elles não sabiam que o mal lhes tocaria.
And there came over against Gabaa ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel; and the fight [was] severe; and they knew not that evil was coming upon them.
35 Então feriu o Senhor a Benjamin diante d'Israel; e desfizeram os filhos d'Israel n'aquelle dia vinte e cinco mil e cem homens de Benjamin, todos dos que arrancavam espada.
And the Lord struck Benjamin before the children of Israel; and the children of Israel destroyed of Benjamin in that day a hundred and twenty-five thousand men: all these drew sword.
36 E viram os filhos de Benjamin que estavam feridos: porque os homens d'Israel deram logar aos benjamitas, porquanto estavam confiados na emboscada que haviam posto contra Gibeah.
And the children of Benjamin saw that they were struck; and the men of Israel gave place to Benjamin, because they trusted in the ambuscade which they had prepared against Gabaa.
37 E a emboscada se apressou, e accommetteu a Gibeah: e a emboscada arremetteu contra ella, e feriu ao fio da espada toda a cidade.
And when they retreated, then the liers in wait rose up, and they moved toward Gabaa, and the whole ambush came forth, and they struck the city with the edge of the sword.
38 E os homens d'Israel tinham um signal determinado com a emboscada, que era quando fizessem levantar da cidade uma grande nuvem de fumo.
And the children of Israel had a signal of battle with the liers in wait, that they should send up a signal of smoke from the city.
39 Viraram-se pois os homens d'Israel na peleja; e já Benjamin começava a ferir, dos homens de Israel, quasi trinta homens, atravessando-os, porque diziam: Já infallivelmente estão derrotados diante de nós, como na peleja passada.
And the children of Israel saw that the liers in wait had seized Gabaa, and they stood in line of battle; and Benjamin began to strike down wounded ones among the men of Israel about thirty men; for they said, Surely they fall again before us, as in the first battle.
40 Então a nuvem de fumo se começou a levantar da cidade, como uma columna de fumo: e, virando-se Benjamin a olhar para traz de si, eis que o fumo da cidade subia ao céu.
And the signal went up increasingly over the city as a pillar of smoke; and Benjamin looked behind him, and behold the destruction of the city went up to heaven.
41 E os homens d'Israel viraram os rostos, e os homens de Benjamin pasmaram; porque viram que o mal lhes tocaria.
And the men of Israel turned back, and the men of Benjamin hasted, because they saw that evil had come upon them.
42 E viraram as costas diante dos homens d'Israel, para o caminho do deserto; porém a peleja os apertou; e os das cidades os desfizeram no meio d'elles.
And they turned to the way of the wilderness from before the children of Israel, and fled: but the battle overtook them, and they from the cities destroyed them in the midst of them.
43 E cercaram a Benjamin, e o seguiram, e descancadamente o pisaram, até diante de Gibeah, para o nascente do sol.
And they cut down Benjamin, and pursued him from Nua closely till they came opposite Gabaa on the east.
44 E cairam de Benjamin dezoito mil homens, todos estes sendo homens valentes.
And there fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men: all these [were] men of might.
45 Então viraram as costas, e fugiram para o deserto, á penha de Rimmon; rabiscaram ainda d'elles pelos caminhos uns cinco mil homens: e de perto os seguiram até Gideon, e feriram d'elles dois mil homens.
And the rest turned, and fled to the wilderness to the rock of Remmon; and the children of Israel picked off of them five thousand men; and the children of Israel went down after them as far as Gedan, and they struck of them two thousand men.
46 E foram todos os que de Benjamin n'aquelle dia cairam vinte e cinco mil homens que arrancavam a espada, todos elles homens valentes.
And all that fell of Benjamin were twenty-five thousand men that drew sword in that day: all these were men of might.
47 Porém seiscentos homens viraram as costas e fugiram para o deserto, á penha de Rimmon: e ficaram na penha de Rimmon quatro mezes.
And the rest turned, and fled to the wilderness to the rock of Remmon, even [six] hundred men; and they sojourned four months in the rock of Remmon.
48 E os homens d'Israel voltaram para os filhos de Benjamin, e os feriram ao fio da espada, desde os homens da cidade até aos animaes, até a tudo quanto se achava, como tambem a todas as cidades quantas se acharam pozeram a fogo.
And the children of Israel returned to the children of Benjamin, and struck them with the edge of the sword from the city of Methla, even to the cattle, and every thing that was found in all the cities: and they burnt with fire the cities they found.
