2 Samuel 23
1 E estas são as últimas palavras de David: Diz David, filho de Jessé, e diz o homem que foi levantado em altura, o ungido do Deus de Jacob, e o suave em salmos de Israel:
These are the last words of David. Now David, the son of Jesse, the man to whom it was appointed concerning the Christ of the God of Jacob, the preeminent psalmist of Israel said:
2 O espírito do Senhor falou por mim, e a sua palavra esteve em minha boca.
“The Spirit of the Lord has spoken through me, and his word was spoken through my tongue.
3 Disse o Deus de Israel, a Rocha de Israel a mim me falou: Haverá um justo que domine sobre os homens, que domine no temor de Deus.
The God of Israel spoke to me, the Strong One of Israel spoke, the Ruler of men, the Just Ruler, in the fear of God,
4 E será como a luz da manhã, quando sai o sol, da manhã sem nuvens, quando pelo seu resplandor e pela chuva a erva brota da terra.
like the first light of the morning as the sun is rising, when a morning without clouds glows red, and like plants springing forth from the earth after a rainfall.
5 Ainda que a minha casa não seja tal para com Deus, contudo estabeleceu comigo um concerto eterno, que em tudo será bem ordenado e guardado, pois toda a minha salvação e todo o meu prazer está nele, apesar de que ainda não o faz brotar.
But my house is not so great with God that he should undertake an eternal covenant with me, firm and fortified in all things. For he is the entirety of my salvation and the entirety of my will. And there is nothing of this which will not spring forth.
6 Porém os filhos de Belial todos serão como os espinhos que se lançam fora, porque se lhes não pode pegar com a mão.
But all prevaricators shall be plucked out like thorns, yet they are not taken away by hands.
7 Mas qualquer que os tocar se armará de ferro e da haste de uma lança; e a fogo serão totalmente queimados no mesmo lugar.
And if anyone wishes to touch them, he must be armed with iron and a wooden lance. And they shall be set ablaze and burned to nothing.”
8 Estes são os nomes dos valentes que David teve: Joseb-bashebeth, filho de Tachemoni, o principal dos capitães: este era Adino, o esnita, que se oppozera a oitocentos, e os feriu de uma vez.
These are the names of the valiant of David. Sitting in the chair was the wisest leader among the three; he was like a very tender little worm in a tree, who killed eight hundred men in one attack.
9 E depois dele Eleazar, filho de Dodó, filho de Ahohi, entre os três valentes que estavam com David quando provocaram os philisteus que ali se ajuntaram à peleja, e quando de Israel os homens subiram.
After him, there was Eleazar, the son of his paternal uncle, an Ahohite, who was among the three valiant men who were with David when they chastised the Philistines, and they were gathered together in battle there.
10 Este se levantou, e feriu os philisteus, até lhe cançar a mão e ficar a mão pegada à espada: e naquele dia o Senhor obrou um grande livramento; e o povo voltou atráz dele, somente a tomar o despojo.
And when the men of Israel had gone up, he himself stood fast and struck down the Philistines, until his hand grew weak and stiff with the sword. And the Lord wrought a great salvation on that day. And the people who had fled returned to take up the spoils of the slain.
11 E depois dele Samma, filho de Agé, o hararita, quando os philisteus se ajuntaram numa multidão, onde havia um pedaço de terra cheio de lentilhas, e o povo fugira de diante dos philisteus.
And after him, there was Shammah, the son of Agee, from Hara. And the Philistines gathered together at an outpost. For a field full of lentils was in that place. And when the people had fled from the face of the Philistines,
12 Este pois se pôs no meio daquele pedaço de terra, e o defendeu, e feriu os philisteus: e o Senhor obrou um grande livramento.
he stood fast in the middle of the field, and it was protected by him. And he struck down the Philistines. And the Lord wrought a great salvation.
13 Também três dos trinta cabeças desceram, e vieram no tempo da sega a David, à caverna de Adullam: e a multidão dos philisteus acampara no vale de Rephaim.
And moreover, before this, the three who were leaders among the thirty descended and went to David at harvest time, in the cave of Adullam. But the camp of the Philistines was positioned in the Valley of the giants.
14 David estava então num lugar forte, e a guarnição dos philisteus estava então em Beth-lehem.
And David was in a stronghold. Moreover, there was a garrison of the Philistines at that time in Bethlehem.
15 E teve David desejo, e disse: Quem me dera beber da água da cisterna de Beth-lehem, que está junto à porta!
Then David desired, and he said, “If only someone would give me a drink of the water from the cistern, which is in Bethlehem beside the gate!”
16 Então aqueles três valentes romperam pelo arraial dos philisteus, e tiraram água da cisterna de Beth-lehem, que está junto à porta, e a tomaram, e a trouxeram a David; porém ele não a quis beber, mas derramou-a perante o Senhor,
Therefore, the three valiant men burst into the encampment of the Philistines, and they drew water from the cistern of Bethlehem, which was beside the gate. And they brought it to David. Yet he was not willing to drink; instead, he poured it out to the Lord,
17 E disse: Guarda-me, ó Senhor, de que tal faça; beberia eu o sangue dos homens que foram a risco da sua vida? De maneira que não a quis beber: isto fizeram aqueles três valentes.
saying: “May the Lord be gracious to me, so that I may not do this. Should I drink the blood of these men who have set out to the peril of their own lives?” Therefore, he was not willing to drink. These things were accomplished by these three robust men.
18 Também Abisai, irmão de Joab, filho de Zeruia, era cabeça de três; e este alçou a sua lança contra trezentos feridos: e tinha nome entre os três.
Also Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was first among the three. It was he who lifted up his spear against three hundred men, whom he killed. And he was renowned among the three,
19 Porventura este não era o mais nobre dentre estes três? pois era o primeiro deles; porém aos primeiros três não chegou.
and he was the noblest of the three, and he was their leader. But at first he did not attain to the three.
20 Também Benaia, filho de Joiada, filho dum homem valoroso de Cabseel, grande em obras, este feriu dois fortes leões de Moab; e desceu ele, e feriu um leão no meio de uma cova, no tempo da neve.
And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, a very strong man of great deeds, was from Kabzeel. He slew the two lions of Moab, and he descended and slew a lion in the middle of a den, in the days of snow.
21 Também este feriu um homem egípcio, homem de respeito: e na mão do egípcio havia uma lança, porém ele desceu a ele com um cajado, e arrancou a lança da mão do egípcio, e o matou com a sua própria lança.
He also killed an Egyptian who had a spear in his hand, a man worthy to behold. And yet he had gone down to him with only a staff. And he forced the spear from the hand of the Egyptian, and he killed him with his own spear.
22 Estas coisas fez Benaia, filho de Joiada, pelo que teve nome entre três valentes.
Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, accomplished these things.
23 Dentre os trinta ele era o mais nobre, porém aos três primeiros não chegou: e David o pôs sobre os seus guardas.
And he was renowned among the three robust men, who were the most noble among the thirty. Yet truly, he did not attain to the three, until David made him his secret advisor.
