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.

Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: And Yhwh said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a captain 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 league with them in Hebron before Yhwh: 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 unto the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land: which 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 strong hold 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 getteth up to the gutter, and smiteth the Jebusites, and the lame and the blind, that are hated of David’s soul, he shall be chief and captain. Wherefore they said, The blind and the lame shall not 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.

So David dwelt in the fort, 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 went on, and grew great, And Yhwh God of Armies 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 an 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 Yhwh 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 be 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,

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

16 E Elisama, e Eliada, e Eliphelet.

And Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphalet.

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.

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

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

The Philistines also came 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 enquired of Yhwh, saying, Shall I go up to the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And Yhwh said unto David, Go up: for I will doubtless deliver the Philistines into thine 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 said, Yhwh hath broken forth upon mine enemies before me, as 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 there they left their images, and David and his men burned them.

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 enquired of Yhwh, he said, Thou shalt not go up; but fetch a compass 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 let it be, when thou hearest the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself: for then shall Yhwh go out before thee, to smite the army 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 Yhwh had commanded him; and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou come to Gazer.
