Josué 6
1 Ora Jericó cerrou-se, e estava cerrada por causa dos filhos de Israel: nenhum saía nem entrava.
Now Jericho was securely shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
2 Então disse o Senhor a Josué: Olha, tenho dado na tua mão a Jericó e ao seu rei, os seus valentes e valorosos.
And the LORD said to Joshua, See, I have given into thy hand Jericho, and its king, and the mighty men of valour.
3 Vós pois, todos os homens de guerra, rodeareis a cidade, cercando a cidade uma vez: assim fareis por seis dias.
And ye shall march around the city, all ye men of war, and go round the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.
4 E sete sacerdotes levarão sete buzinas de carneiros diante da arca, e no sétimo dia rodeareis a cidade sete vezes: e os sacerdotes tocarão as buzinas.
And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams’ horns: and the seventh day ye shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.
5 E será que, tocando-se longamente a buzina de carneiro, ouvindo vós o sonido da buzina, todo o povo gritará com grande grita: e o muro da cidade cairá abaixo de si, e o povo subirá nele, cada qual em frente de si.
And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall go up every man straight before him.
6 Então chamou Josué, filho de Nun, aos sacerdotes, e disse-lhes: levai a arca do concerto; e sete sacerdotes levem sete buzinas de carneiros, diante da arca do Senhor.
And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the LORD.
7 E disse ao povo: passai e rodeai a cidade; e quem estiver armado, passe diante da arca do Senhor.
And he said to the people, Pass on, and march around the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of the LORD.
8 E assim foi, como Josué dissera ao povo, que os sete sacerdotes, levando as sete buzinas de carneiros diante do Senhor, passaram, e tocaram as buzinas: e a arca do concerto do Senhor os seguia.
And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken to the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams’ horns passed on before the LORD, and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.
9 E os armados iam adiante dos sacerdotes, que tocavam as buzinas: e a retaguarda seguia após da arca, andando e tocando as buzinas.
And the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets, and the rear guard came after the ark, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.
10 Porém ao povo Josué tinha dado ordem, dizendo: Não gritareis, nem fareis ouvir a vossa voz, nem sairá palavra alguma da vossa boca, até ao dia que eu vos diga: gritai. Então gritareis.
And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed from your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout.
11 E fez a arca do Senhor rodeiar a cidade, rodeiando-a uma vez: e vieram ao arraial, e passaram a noite no arraial.
So the ark of the LORD went around the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
12 Depois Josué se levantou de madrugada, e os sacerdotes levaram a arca do Senhor.
And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the LORD.
13 E os sete sacerdotes, que levavam as sete buzinas de carneiros diante da arca do Senhor, iam andando, e tocavam as buzinas, e os armados iam adiante deles, e a retaguarda seguia atráz da arca do Senhor; os sacerdotes iam andando e tocando as buzinas.
And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually, and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; but the rear guard came after the ark of the LORD, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.
14 Assim rodearam outra vez a cidade no segundo dia e tornaram para o arraial: e assim fizeram seis dias.
And the second day they marched around the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.
15 E sucedeu que ao sétimo dia madrugaram ao subir da alva, e da mesma maneira rodearam a cidade sete vezes: naquele dia somente rodearam a cidade sete vezes.
And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and marched around the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they marched around the city seven times.
16 E sucedeu que, tocando os sacerdotes a sétima vez as buzinas, disse Josué ao povo: gritai; porque o Senhor vos tem dado a cidade.
And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city.
17 Porém a cidade será anátema ao Senhor, ela e tudo quanto houver nela: somente a prostituta Rahab viverá, ela e todos os que com ela estiverem em casa; porquanto escondeu os mensageiros que enviamos.
And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are in it, to the LORD: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
18 Tão somente guardai-vos do anátema, para que não vos metais em anátema tomando dela, e assim façais maldito o arraial de Israel, e o turbeis.
And ye, in every way keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest ye make yourselves accursed, when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.
19 Porém toda a prata, e o ouro, e os vasos de metal, e de ferro, são consagrados ao Senhor: irão ao tesouro do Senhor.
But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated to the LORD: they shall come into the treasury of the LORD.
20 Gritou pois o povo, tocando os sacerdotes as buzinas: e sucedeu que, ouvindo o povo o sonido da buzina, gritou o povo com grande grita; e o muro caiu abaixo, e o povo subiu à cidade, cada qual em frente de si, e tomaram a cidade.
So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
21 E, tudo quanto na cidade havia, destruiram totalmente ao fio da espada, desde o homem até à mulher, desde o menino até ao velho, e até ao boi e gado miúdo, e ao jumento.
And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and donkey, with the edge of the sword.
22 Josué, porém, disse aos dois homens que tinham espiado a terra: entrai na casa da mulher prostituta, e tirai de lá a mulher com tudo quanto tiver, como lhe tendes jurado.
But Joshua had said to the two men that spied out the country, Go into the harlot’s house, and bring out from there the woman, and all that she hath, as ye swore to her.
23 Então entraram os mancebos espias, e tiraram a Rahab, e a seu pai, e a sua mãe, e a seus irmãos, e a tudo quanto tinha; tiraram também a todas as suas famílias, e puseram-nos fora do arraial de Israel.
And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them outside the camp of Israel.
24 Porém a cidade e tudo quanto havia nela queimaram-no a fogo: tão somente a prata, e o ouro, e os vasos de metal e de ferro, deram para o tesouro da casa do Senhor.
And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was in it: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD.
25 Assim deu Josué vida à prostituta Rahab, e à família de seu pai, e a tudo quanto tinha; e habitou no meio de Israel até ao dia de hoje: porquanto escondera os mensageiros que Josué tinha enviado a espiar a Jericó.
And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father’s household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel even to this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
26 E naquele tempo Josué os esconjurou, dizendo: Maldito diante do Senhor seja o homem que se levantar e reedificar esta cidade de Jericó: no seu primogênito a fundará, e no seu filho mais novo lhe porá as portas.
And Joshua charged them at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before the LORD, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay its foundation in his firstborn, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.
27 Assim era o Senhor com Josué: e corria a sua fama por toda a terra.
So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was noised throughout all the country.
