1 Samuel 10
1 Então tomou Samuel um vaso de azeite, e lho derramou sobre a cabeça, e o beijou, e disse: Porventura te não tem ungido o Senhor por capitão sobre a sua herdade?
Then Samuel took the vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not because Jehovah has anointed thee prince over his inheritance?
2 Partindo-te hoje de mim, acharás dois homens junto ao sepulcro de Rachel, no termo de Benjamin, em Zelsah, os quais te dirão: Acharam-se as jumentas que foste buscar, e eis que já o teu pai deixou o negócio das jumentas, e anda aflito por causa de vós, dizendo: Que farei eu por meu filho?
When thou goest from me to-day, thou shalt meet two men by Rachel's sepulchre in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to thee, The asses are found which thou wentest to seek, and behold, thy father has dismissed the matter of the asses, and is anxious about you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
3 E quando dali passares mais adiante, e chegares ao carvalho de Tabor, ali te encontrarão três homens, que vão subindo a Deus a bethel: um levando três cabritos, o outro três bolos de pão, e o outro um odre de vinho.
And thou shalt go on forward from thence, and shalt come to the oak of Tabor, and there shall meet thee three men going up to God, to Bethel, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three cakes of bread, and another carrying a flask of wine.
4 E te perguntarão como estás, e te darão dois pães, que tomarás da sua mão.
And they will ask after thy welfare, and give thee two loaves, which thou shalt receive of their hands.
5 Então virás ao outeiro de Deus, onde está a guarnição dos philisteus; e há de ser que, entrando ali na cidade, encontrarás um rancho de profetas que descem do alto, e trazem diante de si saltérios, e tambores, e flautas, e harpas; e profetizarão.
After that thou shalt come to the hill of God, where are the outposts of the Philistines; and it shall come to pass, when thou comest thither, into the city, that thou shalt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with lute and tambour and pipe and harp before them; and they themselves prophesying.
6 E o espírito do Senhor se apoderará de ti, e profetizarás com eles, e te mudarás em outro homem.
And the Spirit of Jehovah will come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.
7 E há de ser que, quando estes sinais te vierem, faze o que achar a tua mão, porque Deus é contigo.
And it shall be, when these signs shall come to thee, thou shalt do as thy hand shall find; for God is with thee.
8 Tu porém descerás diante de mim a Gilgal, e eis que eu descerei a ti, para sacrificar holocaustos, e para oferecer ofertas pacíficas: ali sete dias esperarás, até que eu venha a ti, e te declare o que as de fazer.
And thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal; and behold, I will come down to thee, to offer up burnt-offerings, [and] to sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings: seven days shalt thou wait, until I come to thee and inform thee what thou shalt do.
9 Sucedeu pois que, virando ele as costas para partir de Samuel, Deus lhe mudou o coração em outro: e todos aqueles sinais aconteceram aquele mesmo dia.
And it was [so] that when he turned his back to go away from Samuel, God gave him another heart; and all those signs came to pass that day.
10 E, chegando eles ao outeiro, eis que um rancho de profetas lhes saiu ao encontro: e o espírito do Senhor se apoderou dele, e profetizou no meio deles.
And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a company of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.
11 E aconteceu que, como todos os que de antes o conheciam viram que eis que com os profetas profetizava, então disse o povo, cada qual ao seu companheiro: Que é o que sucedeu ao filho de Kis? Está também Saul entre os profetas?
And it came to pass, when all that knew him before saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?
12 Então um homem dali respondeu, e disse: Pois quem é o pai deles? Pelo que se tornou em provérbio: Está também Saul entre os profetas?
And a man of that place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?
13 E, acabando de profetizar, veio ao alto.
And when he had ended prophesying, he came to the high place.
14 E disse-lhe o tio de Saul, a ele e ao seu moço: Aonde fostes? E disse ele: A buscar as jumentas, e, vendo que não apareciam, viemos a Samuel.
And Saul's uncle said to him and to his servant, Whither went ye? And he said, To seek the asses; and when we saw that they were nowhere, we went to Samuel.
15 Então disse o tio de Saul: Declara-me, peço-te, que é o que vos disse Samuel?
And Saul's uncle said, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said to you.
16 E disse Saul a seu tio: Declarou-nos, na verdade, que as jumentas se acharam. Porém o negócio do reino, de que Samuel falara, lhe não declarou.
And Saul said to his uncle, He told us for certain that the asses were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, of which Samuel had spoken, he told him not.
17 Convocou pois Samuel o povo ao Senhor em Mispah.
And Samuel called the people together to Jehovah to Mizpah.
18 E disse aos filhos de Israel: Assim disse o Senhor Deus de Israel: Eu fiz subir a Israel do Egito, e livrei-vos da mão dos egípcios e da mão de todos os reinos que vos oprimiam.
And he said to the children of Israel, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms that oppressed you;
19 Mas vós tendes rejeitado hoje a vosso Deus, que vos livrou de todos os vossos males e trabalhos, e lhe tendes dito: Põe um rei sobre nós: agora, pois, ponde-vos perante o Senhor, pelas vossas tribos e pelos vossos milhares.
but ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your troubles, and have said unto him, [Nay, ] but a king shalt thou set over us. Now therefore present yourselves before Jehovah by your tribes, and by your thousands.
20 Fazendo pois chegar Samuel todas as tribos, tomou-se a tribo de Benjamin.
And Samuel caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
21 E, fazendo chegar a tribo de Ben-jamin pelas suas famílias, tomou-se a família de Matri: e dela se tomou Saul, filho de Kis; e o buscaram, porém não se achou.
And he caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, and the family of Matri was taken; and Saul the son of Kish was taken. And they sought him, but he was not to be found.
22 Então tornaram a perguntar ao Senhor se aquele homem ainda viria ali. E disse o Senhor: Eis que se escondeu entre a bagagem.
Therefore they inquired of Jehovah further, Will the man yet come hither? And Jehovah answered, Behold, he hath hid himself among the baggage.
23 E correram, e o tomaram dali, e pôs-se no meio do povo: e era mais alto do que todo o povo desde o ombro para cima.
And they ran and fetched him thence; and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.
24 Então disse Samuel a todo o povo: Vêdes já a quem o Senhor tem elegido? pois em todo o povo não há nenhum semelhante a ele. Então jubilou todo o povo, e disseram: Viva o rei!
And Samuel said to all the people, See ye him whom Jehovah has chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted and said, May the king live.
25 E declarou Samuel ao povo o direito do reino, e escreveu-o num livro, e pô-lo perante o Senhor: então enviou Samuel a todo o povo, cada um para sua casa.
And Samuel told the people the right of the kingdom, and wrote it in the book, and laid it before Jehovah. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.
26 E foi-se também Saul a sua casa, a Gibeah: e foram com ele do exército aqueles cujos corações Deus tocara.
And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and with him went the band, whose hearts God had touched.
27 Mas os filhos de Belial disseram: É este o que nos há de livrar? E o desprezaram, e não lhe trouxeram presentes: porém ele se fez como surdo.
But the children of Belial said, How should this man save us? And they despised him, and brought him no gifts. But he was as one deaf.
