< 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 all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and spoke, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your 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 you who led Israel out and in. The LORD said to you, ‘You will be shepherd of my people Israel, and you will 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 the LORD; 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-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)
The king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spoke to David, saying, “The blind and the lame will keep you out of here,” thinking, “David can’t come in here.”
7 Porém David tomou a fortaleza de Sião: esta é a cidade de David.
Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. This is David’s city.
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.
David said on that day, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites, let him go up to the watercourse and strike those lame and blind, who are hated by David’s soul.” Therefore they say, “The blind and the lame can’t 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.
David lived in the stronghold, and called it David’s city. David built around from Millo and inward.
10 E David se ia cada vez mais aumentando e crescendo, porque o Senhor Deus dos exércitos era com ele.
David grew greater and greater, for the LORD, 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.
Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, with cedar trees, 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.
David perceived that the LORD 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.
David took more concubines and wives for himself out of Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron; and more sons and daughters were born to David.
14 E estes são os nomes dos que lhe nasceram em Jerusalém: Sammua, e Sobab, e Nathan, e Salomão,
These are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
15 E Ibhar, e Elisua, e Nepheg, e Japhia,
Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
16 E Elisama, e Eliada, e Eliphelet.
Elishama, 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.
When the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David, but David heard about 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.
David enquired of the LORD, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand?” The LORD said to David, “Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into your 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.
David came to Baal Perazim, and David struck them there. Then he said, “The LORD has broken my 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.
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.
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.
When David enquired of the LORD, he said, “You shall not go up. Circle around behind them, and attack them in front of 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.
When you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, then stir yourself up; for then the LORD has gone out before you to strike 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.
David did so, as the LORD commanded him, and struck the Philistines all the way from Geba to Gezer.
