< Josué 10 >

1 E sucedeu que, ouvindo Adonizedek, rei de Jerusalém, que Josué tomara a Hai, e a tinha destruído totalmente, e fizera a Hai e ao seu rei como tinha feito a Jericó e ao seu rei, e que os moradores de Gibeon fizeram paz com os israelitas, e estavam no meio deles,
And when Adoni-bezec king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had taken Gai, and had destroyed it, as he did to Jericho and its king, even so they did to Gai and its king, and that the inhabitants of Gabaon had gone over to Joshua and Israel;
2 Temeram muito: porque Gibeon era uma cidade grande como uma das cidades reais, e ainda maior do que Hai, e todos os seus homens valentes.
then they were greatly terrified by them, for [the king] knew that Gabaon [was] a great city, as one of the chief cities, and all its men [were] mighty.
3 Pelo que Adonizedek, rei de Jerusalém, enviou a Hoham, rei de Hebron, e a Piram, rei de Jarmuth, e a Jafia, rei de Lachis, e a Debir, rei de Eglon, dizendo:
So Adoni-bezec king of Jerusalem sent to Elam king of Hebron, and to Phidon king of Jerimuth, and to Jephtha king of Lachis, and to Dabin king of Odollam, saying,
4 Subi a mim, e ajudai-me, e firamos a Gibeon: porquanto fez paz com Josué e com os filhos de Israel.
Come up hither to me, and help me, and let us take Gabaon; for the Gabaonites have gone over to Joshua and to the children of Israel.
5 Então se ajuntaram, e subiram cinco reis dos amorreus, o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebron, o rei de Jarmuth, o rei de Lachis, o rei de Eglon, eles e todos os seus exércitos: e sitiaram a Gibeon e pelejaram contra ela.
And the five kings of the Jebusites went up, the king of Jerusalem, and the king of Chebron, and the king of Jerimuth, and the king of Lachis, and the king of Odollam, they and all their people; and encamped around Gabaon, and besieged it.
6 Enviaram pois os homens de Gibeon a Josué ao arraial de Gilgal, dizendo: Não retires as tuas mãos de teus servos; sobe apressadamente a nós, e livra-nos, e ajuda-nos, porquanto todos os reis dos amorreus, que habitam na montanha, se ajuntaram contra nós
And the inhabitants of Gabaon sent to Joshua into the camp to Galgala, saying, Slack not your hands from your servants: come up quickly to us, and help us, and rescue us; for all the kings of the Amorites who dwell in the hill country are gathered together against us.
7 Então subiu Josué de Gilgal, ele e toda a gente de guerra com ele, e todos os valentes e valorosos.
And Joshua went up from Galgala, he and all the people of war with him, every one mighty in strength.
8 E o Senhor disse a Josué: Não os temas, porque os tenho dado na tua mão: nenhum deles parará diante de ti.
And the Lord said to Joshua, Fear them not, for I have delivered them into your hands; there shall not one of them be left before you.
9 E Josué lhes sobreveio de repente, porque toda a noite veio subindo desde Gilgal.
And when Joshua came suddenly upon them, he [had] advanced all the night out of Galgala.
10 E o Senhor os conturbou diante de Israel, e os feriu de grande ferida em Gibeon: e seguiu-os pelo caminho que sobe a Bethoron, e os feriu até Azeka e a Makeda.
And the Lord struck them with terror before the children of Israel; and the Lord destroyed them with a great slaughter at Gabaon; and they pursued them by the way of the going up of Oronin, and they struck them to Azeca and to Makeda.
11 E sucedeu que, fugindo eles diante de Israel, à descida de Bethoron, o Senhor lançou sobre eles, do céu, grandes pedras até Azeka, e morreram: e foram muitos mais os que morreram das pedras da saraiva do que os que os filhos de Israel mataram à espada.
And when they fled from the face of the children of Israel at the descent of Oronin, then the Lord cast upon them hailstones from heaven to Azeca; and they were more that died by the hailstones, than those whom the children of Israel killed with the sword in the battle.
12 Então Josué falou ao Senhor, no dia em que o Senhor deu os amorreus na mão dos filhos de Israel, e disse aos olhos dos israelitas: Sol, detem-te em Gibeon, e tu, lua, no vale de Ajalon.
Then Joshua spoke to the Lord, in the day in which the Lord delivered the Amorite into the power of Israel, when he destroyed them in Gabaon, and they were destroyed from before the children of Israel: and Joshua said, Let the sun stand over against Gabaon, and the moon over against the valley of Aelon.
13 E o sol se deteve, e a lua parou, até que o povo se vingou de seus inimigos. Isto não está escrito no livro do reto? O sol pois se deteve no meio do céu, e não se apressou a pôr-se, quase um dia inteiro.
And the sun and the moon stood still, until God executed vengeance on their enemies; and the sun stood still in the midst of heaven; it did not proceed to set till the end of one day.
14 E não houve dia semelhante a este, nem antes nem depois dele, ouvindo o Senhor assim a voz dum homem: porque o Senhor pelejava por Israel.
And there was not such a day either before or after, so that God should listen to a man, because the Lord fought on the side of Israel.
15 E tornou-se Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, ao arraial a Gilgal.
16 Aqueles cinco reis, porém, fugiram, e se esconderam numa cova em Makeda.
And these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave that is in Makeda.
17 E foi anunciado a Josué, dizendo: Acharam-se os cinco reis escondidos numa cova em Makeda.
And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings have been found hid in the cave that is in Makeda.
18 Disse pois Josué: arrojai grandes pedras à boca da cova, e ponde sobre ela homens que os guardem:
And Joshua said, Roll stones to the mouth of the cave, and set men to watch over them.
19 Porém vos não vos detenhais; segui os vossos inimigos, e feri os que ficaram atráz: não os deixeis entrar nas suas cidades, porque o Senhor vosso Deus já vo-los deu na vossa mão
But do not you stand, but pursue after your enemies, and attack the rear of them, and do not suffer them to enter into their cities; for the Lord our God has delivered them into our hands.
20 E sucedeu que, acabando Josué e os filhos de Israel de os ferir a grande ferida, até consumi-los, e que os que ficaram deles se retiraram às cidades fortes,
And it came to pass when Joshua and all Israel ceased destroying them utterly with a very great slaughter, that they that escaped took refuge in the strong cities.
21 Todo o povo se tornou em paz a Josué, ao arraial em Makeda: não havendo ninguém que movesse a sua língua contra os filhos de Israel.
And all the people returned safe to Joshua to Makeda; and no one of the children of Israel murmured with his tongue.
22 Depois disse Josué: Abri a boca da cova, e trazei-me aqueles cinco reis para fora da cova.
And Joshua said, Open the cave, and bring out these five kings out of the cave.
23 Fizeram pois assim, e trouxeram-lhe aqueles cinco reis para fora da cova: o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebron, o rei de Jarmuth, o rei de Lachis, e o rei de Eglon.
And they brought out the five kings out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, and the king of Chebron, and the king of Jerimuth, and the king of Lachis, and the king of Odollam.
24 E sucedeu que, trazendo aqueles reis a Josué, Josué chamou todos os homens de Israel, e disse aos capitães da gente de guerra, que com ele foram: chegai, ponde os vossos pés sobre os pescoços destes reis. E chegaram, e puseram os seus pés sobre os seus pescoços.
And when they brought them out to Joshua, then Joshua called together all Israel, and the chiefs of the army that went with him, saying to them, Come forward and set your feet on their necks; and they came and set their feet on their necks.
25 Então Josué lhes disse: Não temais, nem vos espanteis: esforçai-vos e animae-vos; porque assim o fará o Senhor a todos os vossos inimigos, contra os quais pelejardes.
And Joshua said to them, Do not fear them, neither be cowardly; be courageous and strong, for thus the Lord will do to all your enemies, against whom you fight.
26 E, depois disto, Josué os feriu e os matou, e os enforcou em cinco madeiros: e ficaram enforcados nos madeiros até à tarde.
And Joshua killed them, and hanged them on five trees; and they hung upon the trees until the evening.
27 E sucedeu que, ao tempo do pôr do sol, deu Josué ordem que os tirassem dos madeiros: e lançaram-nos na cova onde se esconderam: e puseram grandes pedras à boca da cova, que ainda ali estão até ao mesmo dia de hoje.
And it came to pass toward the setting of the sun, Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, and cast them into the cave into which they [had] fled for refuge, and rolled stones to the cave, [which remain] till this day.
28 E naquele mesmo dia tomou Josué a Makeda, e feriu-a a fio de espada, e destruiu o seu rei, a eles, e a toda a alma que nela havia; nada deixou de resto: e fez ao rei de Makeda como fizera ao rei de Jericó.
And they took Makeda on that day, and killed the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and they utterly destroyed every living thing that was in it; and there was none left in it that was preserved and had escaped; and they did to the king of Makeda, as they did to the king of Jericho.
29 Então Josué e todo o Israel com ele passou de Makeda a Libna, e pelejou contra Libna;
And Joshua and all Israel with him departed out of Makeda to Lebna, and besieged Lebna.
30 E também o Senhor a deu na mão de Israel, a ela e a seu rei, e a feriu a fio de espada, a ela e a toda a alma que nela havia; nada deixou de resto: e fez ao seu rei como fizera ao rei de Jericó.
And the Lord delivered it into the hands of Israel: and they took it, and its king, and killed the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and every thing breathing in it; and there was not left in it any that survived and escaped; and they did to its king, as they did to the king of Jericho.
31 Então Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, passou de Libna a Lachis: e a sitiou, e pelejou contra ela;
And Joshua and all Israel with him departed from Lebna to Lachis, and he encamped about it, and besieged it.
32 E o Senhor deu a Lachis na mão de Israel, e tomou-a no dia seguinte, e a feriu a fio de espada, a ela, e a toda a alma que nela havia, conforme a tudo o que fizera a Libna.
And the Lord delivered Lachis into the hands of Israel; and they took it on the second day, and they put the inhabitants to death with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed it, as they had done to Lebna.
33 Então Horan, rei de Gezer, subiu a ajudar a Lachis: porém Josué o feriu, a ele e ao seu povo, até que nenhum lhe deixou de resto.
Then Elam the king of Gazer went up to help Lachis; and Joshua struck him and his people with the edge of the sword, until there was not left to him one that was preserved and escaped.
34 E Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, passou de Lachis a Eglon: e a sitiaram, e pelejaram contra ela:
And Joshua and all Israel with him departed from Lachis to Odollam, and he besieged it and took it.
35 E no mesmo dia a tomaram, e a feriram a fio de espada; e a toda a alma, que nela havia, destruiu totalmente no mesmo dia: conforme a tudo o que fizera a Lachis.
And the Lord delivered it into the hand of Israel; and he took it on that day, and killed the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and killed every thing breathing in it, as they did to Lachis.
36 Depois Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, subiu de Eglon a Hebron, e pelejaram contra ela;
And Joshua and all Israel with him departed to Chebron, and encamped about it.
37 E a tomaram, e a feriram ao fio de espada, assim ao seu rei como a todas as suas cidades; e a toda a alma, que nelas havia, a ninguém deixou com vida, conforme a tudo o que fizera a Eglon: e a destruiu totalmente, a ela e a toda a alma que nela havia.
And he struck it with the edge of the sword, and all the living creatures that were in it; there was no one preserved: they destroyed it and all things in it, as they did to Odollam.
38 Então Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, tornou a Debir, e pelejou contra ela;
And Joshua and all Israel returned to Dabir; and they encamped about it;
39 E tomou-a com o seu rei, e a todas as suas cidades, e as feriram a fio de espada, e a toda a alma que nelas havia destruiram totalmente, nada deixou de resto: como fizera a Hebron, assim fez a Debir e ao seu rei, e como fizera a Libna e ao seu rei.
and they took it, and its king, and its villages: and he struck it with the edge of the sword, and they destroyed it, and every thing breathing in it; and they did not leave in it any one that was preserved: as they did to Chebron and her king, so they did to Dabir and her king.
40 Assim feriu Josué toda aquela terra, as montanhas, o sul, e as campinas, e as descidas das águas, e a todos os seus reis; nada deixou de resto: mas tudo o que tinha fôlego destruiu, como ordenara o Senhor Deus de Israel.
And Joshua struck all the land of the hill country, and Nageb and the plain country, and Asedoth, and her kings, they did not leave of them one that was saved: and they utterly destroyed every thing that had the breath of life, as the Lord God of Israel commanded,
41 E Josué os feriu desde Cades-barnea, e até Gaza: como também toda a terra de Gosen, e até Gibeon.
from Cades Barne to Gaza, all Gosom, as far as Gabaon.
42 E de uma vez tomou Josué todos estes reis, e as suas terras: porquanto o Senhor Deus de Israel pelejava por Israel.
And Joshua struck, once for all, all their kings, and their land, because the Lord God of Israel fought on the side of Israel.
43 Então Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, se tornou ao arraial em Gilgal.
