< 2 Samuel 21 >

1 E houve em dias de David uma fome de três anos, de ano em ano; e David consultou ao Senhor, e o Senhor lhe disse: É por causa de Saul e da sua casa sanguinária, porque matou os gibeonitas.
And there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David sought the face of Jehovah. And Jehovah said, It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put to death the Gibeonites.
2 Então chamou o rei aos gibeonitas, e lhes falou (ora os gibeonitas não eram dos filhos de Israel, mas do resto dos amorreus, e os filhos de Israel lhes tinham jurado, porém Saul procurou feri-los no seu zelo à causa dos filhos de Israel e de Judah).
And the king called the Gibeonites, and spoke to them (now the Gibeonites were not of the sons of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites, and the sons of Israel had sworn to them, and yet Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for the sons of Israel and Judah),
3 Disse pois David aos gibeonitas: Que quereis que eu vos faça? e que satisfação vos darei, para que abençoeis a herança do Senhor?
and David said to the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? And with what shall I make atonement that ye may bless the inheritance of Jehovah?
4 Então os gibeonitas lhe disseram: Não é por prata nem ouro que temos questão com Saul e com sua casa; nem tão pouco pretendemos matar pessoa alguma em Israel. E disse ele: Que é pois que quereis que vos faça?
And the Gibeonites said to him, It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul or his house, neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel. And he said, What ye shall say, that I will do for you.
5 E disseram ao rei: O homem que nos destruiu, e intentou contra nós que fossemos assolados, sem que podessemos subsistir em termo algum de Israel,
And they said to the king, The man who consumed us, and who devised against us, that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
6 De seus filhos se nos dêem sete homens, para que os enforquemos ao Senhor em Gibeah de Saul, o eleito do Senhor. E disse o rei: Eu os darei.
let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to Jehovah in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of Jehovah. And the king said, I will give them.
7 Porém o rei poupou a Mephiboseth, filho de Jonathan, filho de Saul, por causa do juramento do Senhor, que entre eles houvera, entre David e Jonathan, filho de Saul.
But the king spared Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of Jehovah's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 Porém tomou o rei os dois filhos de Rispa, filha de Aia, que tinha parido a Saul, a saber a Armoni e a Mephiboseth; como também os cinco filhos da irmã de Michal, filha de Saul, que parira a Adriel, filho de Barzillai, meholathita.
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth, and the five sons of Merab the daughter of Saul whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9 E os entregou na mão dos gibeonitas, os quais os enforcaram no monte, perante o Senhor; e cairam estes sete juntamente: e foram mortos nos dias da sega, nos dias primeiros, no princípio da sega das cevadas.
And he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites. And they hanged them in the mountain before Jehovah, and they fell all seven together. And they were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
10 Então Rispa, filha de Aia, tomou um pano de cilício, e estendeu-lho sobre uma penha, desde o princípio da sega, até que destilou a água sobre eles do céu: e não deixou as aves do céu pousar sobre eles de dia, nem os animais do campo de noite.
And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth, and spread it for her upon the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water was poured upon them from heaven. And she neither allowed the birds of the heaven to rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
11 E foi dito a David o que fizera Rispa, filha de Aia, concubina de Saul.
And it was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
12 Então foi David, e tomou os ossos de Saul, e os ossos de Jonathan seu filho, dos moradores de Jabéz-gilead, os quais os furtaram da rua de Beth-san, onde os philisteus os tinham pendurado, quando os philisteus feriram a Saul em Gilboa.
And David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh-gilead, who had stolen them from the street of Beth-shan where the Philistines had hanged them in the day that the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa,
13 E fez subir dali os ossos de Saul, e os ossos de Jonathan seu filho: e ajuntaram também os ossos dos enforcados.
and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son, and they gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
14 Enterraram os ossos de Saul, e de Jonathan seu filho na terra de Benjamin, em Zela, na sepultura de seu pai Kis, e fizeram tudo o que o rei ordenara; e depois disto Deus se aplacou com a terra.
And they buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the sepulcher of Kish his father. And they performed all that the king commanded. And after that God was entreated for the land.
15 Tiveram mais os philisteus uma peleja contra Israel: e desceu David, e com ele os seus servos: e tanto pelejaram contra os philisteus, que David se cançou.
And the Philistines had war again with Israel. And David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. And David grew faint,
16 E Isbi-benob, que era dos filhos do gigante, e o peso de cuja lança tinha trezentos siclos de peso de cobre, e que cingia uma espada nova, este intentou ferir a David.
and Ishbibenob, who was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of brass in weight, he being girded with a new sword, thought to have slain David.
17 Porém Abisai, filho de Zeruia, o socorreu, e feriu o philisteu, e o matou: então os homens de David lhe juraram, dizendo: Nunca mais sairás conosco à peleja, para que não apagues a lâmpada de Israel.
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and smote the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, Thou shall no more go out with us to battle, that thou not quench the lamp of Israel.
18 E aconteceu depois disto que houve em Gob ainda outra peleja contra os philisteus: então Sibbechai, o husatita, feriu a Saph, que era dos filhos do gigante.
And it came to pass after this, that there was again war with the Philistines at Gob. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was of the sons of the giant.
19 Houve mais outra peleja contra os philisteus em Gob: e El-hanan, filho de Jaaré-oregim, o beth-lehemita feriu Goliath, o getheu, de cuja lança era a haste como órgão de tecelão.
And there was again war with the Philistines at Gob. And Elhanan the son of Jaareoregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
20 Houve ainda também outra peleja em Gath, onde estava um homem de Alta estatura, que tinha em cada mão seis dedos, e em cada pé outros seis, vinte e quatro por todos, e também este nascera do gigante.
And there was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature who had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, twenty-four in number, and he also was born to the giant.
21 E injuriava a Israel: porém Jonathan, filho de Simea, irmão de David, o feriu.
And when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David's brother, killed him.
22 Estes quatro nasceram ao gigante em Gath: e cairam pela mão de David e pela mão de seus servos.
These four were born to the giant in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
