1 Crônicas 19
1 E aconteceu, depois disto, que Nahas, rei dos filhos de Ammon, morreu: e seu filho reinou em seu lugar.
Now it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.
2 Então disse David: Usarei de beneficência com Hanun, filho de Nahas, porque seu pai usou de beneficência comigo. Pelo que David enviou mensageiros para o consolarem acerca de seu pai. E, vindo os servos de David à terra dos filhos de Ammon, a Hanun, para o consolarem,
And David said, I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
3 Disseram os príncipes dos filhos de Ammon a Hanun: Porventura honra David a teu pai aos teus olhos, porque te mandou consoladores? não vieram seus servos a ti, a esquadrinhar, e a transtornar, e a espiar a terra?
But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Think you that David does honor your father, that he has sent comforters to you? are not his servants come to you for to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?
4 Pelo que Hanun tomou os servos de David, e os rapou, e lhes cortou os vestidos no meio até à coxa da perna, e os despediu.
Why Hanun took David’s servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the middle hard by their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 E foram-se, e avisaram a David acerca destes homens, e mandou ao encontro deles; porque aqueles homens estavam sobremaneira envergonhados. Disse pois o rei: deixai-vos ficar em Jericó, até que vos torne a crescer a barba, e então tornai.
Then there went certain, and told David how the men were served. And he sent to meet them: for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
6 Vendo pois os filhos de Ammon que se tinham feito odiosos para com David, então enviou Hanun, e os filhos de Ammon, mil talentos de prata, para alugarem para si carros e cavaleiros de Mesopotâmia, e da Síria de Maaca, e de Zoba.
And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syriamaachah, and out of Zobah.
7 E alugaram para si trinta e dois mil carros, e o rei de Maaca e a sua gente, e eles vieram, e se acamparam diante de Medeba: também os filhos de Ammon se ajuntaram das suas cidades, e vieram para a guerra.
So they hired thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah and his people; who came and pitched before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.
8 O que ouvindo David, enviou Joab e todo o exército dos homens valorosos.
And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
9 E, saindo os filhos de Ammon, ordenaram a batalha à porta da cidade: porém os reis que vieram se puseram à parte no campo.
And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array before the gate of the city: and the kings that were come were by themselves in the field.
10 E, vendo Joab que a frente da batalha estava contra ele por diante e por detraz, fez escolha dentre os mais escolhidos de Israel, e os ordenou contra os siros:
Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose out of all the choice of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians.
11 E o resto do povo entregou na mão de Abisai, seu irmão; e puseram-se em ordem de batalha contra os filhos de Ammon.
And the rest of the people he delivered to the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
12 E disse: Se os siros forem mais fortes do que eu, tu virás socorrer-me; e, se os filhos de Ammon forem mais fortes do que tu, então eu te socorrerei a ti.
And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then you shall help me: but if the children of Ammon be too strong for you, then I will help you.
13 Esforça-te, e esforcemo-nos pelo nosso povo, e pelas cidades do nosso Deus, e faça o Senhor o que parecer bem aos seus olhos.
Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people, and for the cities of our God: and let the LORD do that which is good in his sight.
14 Então se chegou Joab, e o povo que tinha consigo, diante dos siros, para a batalha; e fugiram de diante dele.
So Joab and the people that were with him drew near before the Syrians to the battle; and they fled before him.
15 Vendo pois os filhos de Ammon que os siros fugiram, também eles fugiram de diante de Abisai, seu irmão, e entraram na cidade: e veio Joab para Jerusalém.
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
16 E, vendo os siros que foram derrotados diante de Israel, enviaram mensageiros, e fizeram sair os siros que habitavam da banda de além do rio: e Sophac, capitão do exército de Hadar-ezer, marchava diante deles.
And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them.
17 Do que avisado David, ajuntou a todo o Israel, e passou o Jordão, e veio ter com eles, e ordenou contra eles a batalha: e, tendo David ordenado a batalha contra os siros, pelejaram contra ele.
And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over Jordan, and came on them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.
18 Porém os siros fugiram de diante de Israel, e feriu David, dos siros, sete mil cavalos de carros, e quarenta mil homens de pé: e a Sophac, capitão do exército, matou.
But the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand men which fought in chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.
19 Vendo pois os servos d'Hadar-ezer que tinham sido feridos diante de Israel, fizeram paz com David, e o serviram: e os siros nunca mais quizeram socorrer os filhos de Ammon.
And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and became his servants: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.
