2 Samuel 5

1 Então todas as tribos de Israel vieram a David, a Hebron, e falaram, dizendo: Eis-nos aqui, teus ossos e tua carne somos.

Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron, and spake, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.

2 E também de antes, sendo Saul ainda rei sobre nós, eras tu o que saías e entravas com Israel; e também o Senhor te disse: Tu apascentarás o meu povo de Israel, e tu serás chefe sobre Israel.

In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was thou that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and Jehovah said to thee, Thou shalt be shepherd of my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel.

3 Assim pois todos os anciãos de Israel vieram ao rei, a Hebron; e o rei David fez com eles aliança em Hebron, perante o Senhor: e ungiram a David rei sobre Israel.

So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Jehovah: and they anointed David king over Israel.

4 Da idade de trinta anos era David quando começou a reinar: quarenta anos reinou.

David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.

5 Em Hebron reinou sobre Judá sete anos e seis meses, e em Jerusalém reinou trinta e três anos sobre todo o Israel e Judá.

In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months; and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.

6 E partiu o rei com os seus homens a Jerusalém, contra os jebuseus que habitavam naquela terra; e falaram a David, dizendo: Não entrarás aqui, que os cegos e os coxos te rechaçaram daqui (querendo dizer: Não entrará David aqui)

And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spake unto David, saying, Except thou take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in hither; thinking, David cannot come in hither.

7 Porém David tomou a fortaleza de Sião: esta é a cidade de David.

Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.

8 Porque David disse naquele dia: Qualquer que ferir aos jebuseus, e chegar ao canal, e aos coxos e aos cegos, que a alma de David aborrece, será cabeça e capitão. Por isso se diz: Nem cego nem coxo entrará nesta casa.

And David said on that day, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites, let him get up to the watercourse, and [smite] the lame and the blind, that are hated of David’s soul. Wherefore they say, There are the blind and the lame; he cannot come into the house.

9 Assim habitou David na fortaleza, e a chamou a cidade de David: e David foi edificando em redor, desde milo até dentro.

And David dwelt in the stronghold, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward.

10 E David se ia cada vez mais aumentando e crescendo, porque o Senhor Deus dos exércitos era com ele.

And David waxed greater and greater; for Jehovah, the God of hosts, was with him.

11 E Hirão, rei de Tiro, enviou mensageiros a David, e madeira de cedro, e carpinteiros, e pedreiros: edificaram a David uma casa.

And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and carpenters, and masons; and they built David a house.

12 E entendeu David que o Senhor o confirmara rei sobre Israel, e que exaltara o seu reino por amor do seu povo.

And David perceived that Jehovah had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel’s sake.

13 E tomou David mais concubinas e mulheres de Jerusalém, depois que viera de Hebron: e nasceram a David mais filhos e filhas.

And David took him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron; and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.

14 E estes são os nomes dos que lhe nasceram em Jerusalém: Sammua, e Sobab, e Nathan, e Salomão,

And these are the names of those that were born unto him in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,

15 E Ibhar, e Elisua, e Nepheg, e Japhia,

and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

16 E Elisama, e Eliada, e Eliphelet.

and Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphelet.

17 Ouvindo pois os philisteus que haviam ungido a David rei sobre Israel, todos os philisteus subiram em busca de David: o que ouvindo David, desceu à fortaleza.

And when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the stronghold.

18 E os philisteus vieram, e se estenderam pelo vale de Rephaim.

Now the Philistines had come and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

19 E David consultou ao Senhor, dizendo: Subirei contra os philisteus? entregar-mos-ás nas minhas mãos? E disse o Senhor a David: Sobe, porque certamente entregarei os philisteus nas tuas mãos.

And David inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And Jehovah said unto David, Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into thy hand.

20 Então veio David a Baal-perasim; e feriu-os ali David, e disse: Rompeu o Senhor a meus inimigos diante de mim, como quem rompe águas. Por isso chamou o nome daquele lugar Baal-perasim.

And David came to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and he said, Jehovah hath broken mine enemies before me, like the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baal-perazim.

21 E deixaram ali os seus ídolos; e David e os seus homens os tomaram.

And they left their images there; and David and his men took them away.

22 E os philisteus tornaram a subir, e se estenderam pelo vale de Rephaim.

And the Philistines came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

23 E David consultou ao Senhor, o qual disse: Não subirás: mas rodeia por detraz deles, e virás a eles por defronte das amoreiras.

And when David inquired of Jehovah, he said, Thou shalt not go up: make a circuit behind them, and come upon them over against the mulberry-trees.

24 E há de ser que, ouvindo tu um estrondo de marcha pelas copas das amoreiras, então te apressarás: porque o Senhor saiu então diante de ti, a ferir o arraial dos philisteus.

And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself; for then is Jehovah gone out before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.

25 E fez David assim como o Senhor lhe tinha ordenado: e feriu os philisteus desde Gibeah, até chegar a Gezer.

And David did so, as Jehovah commanded him, and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou come to Gezer.
