Juízes 12
1 Então se convocaram os homens de Ephraim, e passaram para o norte, e disseram a Jefthe: Porque passaste a combater contra os filhos de Ammon, e não nos chamaste para ir contigo? queimaremos a fogo a tua casa contigo.
The men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward; and they said to Jephthah, “Why did you pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didn’t call us to go with you? We will burn your house around you with fire!”
2 E Jefthe lhes disse: Eu e o meu povo tivemos grande contenda com os filhos de Ammon: e chamei-vos, e não me livrastes da sua mão;
Jephthah said to them, “I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, you didn’t save me out of their hand.
3 E, vendo eu que me não livraveis, pus a minha alma na minha mão, e passei aos filhos de Ammon, e o Senhor mos entregou nas mãos: porque pois subistes vós hoje contra mim, para combater contra mim
When I saw that you didn’t save me, I put my life in my hand, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and Yahweh delivered them into my hand. Why then have you come up to me today, to fight against me?”
4 E ajuntou Jefthe a todos os homens de Gilead, e combateu com Ephraim: e os homens de Gilead feriram a Ephraim; porque, estando os gileaditas entre Ephraim e Manasseh, disseram: Fugitivos sois de Ephraim.
Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim. The men of Gilead struck Ephraim, because they said, “You are fugitives of Ephraim, you Gileadites, in the middle of Ephraim, and in the middle of Manasseh.”
5 Porque tomaram os gileaditas aos ephraimitas os vaus do Jordão: e sucedeu que, quando os fugitivos de Ephraim diziam: Passarei; então os homens de Gilead lhes diziam: és tu ephratita? E dizendo ele: Não;
The Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. Whenever a fugitive of Ephraim said, “Let me go over,” the men of Gilead said to him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” If he said, “No;”
6 Então lhe diziam: Dize pois, Shibboleth; porém ele dizia: Sibboleth, porque o não podia pronunciar assim bem: então pegavam dele, e o degolavam aos vaus do Jordão: e cairam de Ephraim naquele tempo quarenta e dois mil.
then they said to him, “Now say ‘Shibboleth;’” and he said “Sibboleth”; for he couldn’t manage to pronounce it correctly, then they seized him and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. At that time, forty-two thousand of Ephraim fell.
7 E Jefthe julgou a Israel seis anos: e Jefthe, o gileadita, faleceu, e foi sepultado nas cidades de Gilead.
Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in the cities of Gilead.
8 E depois dele julgou a Israel Ebsan de Beth-lehem.
After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.
9 E tinha este trinta filhos; e enviou fora a trinta filhas; e trinta filhas trouxe de fora para seus filhos: e julgou a Israel sete anos.
He had thirty sons. He sent his thirty daughters outside his clan, and he brought in thirty daughters from outside his clan for his sons. He judged Israel seven years.
10 Então faleceu Ebsan, e foi sepultado em Beth-lehem.
Ibzan died, and was buried at Bethlehem.
11 E depois dele julgou a Israel Elon, o zebulonita: e julgou a Israel dez anos.
After him, Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.
12 E faleceu Elon, o zebulonita, e foi sepultado em Ayalon, na terra de Zebulon.
Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.
13 E depois dele julgou a Israel Abdon, filho de Hillel, o pirathonita.
After him, Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.
14 E tinha este quarenta filhos, e trinta filhos de filhos, que cavalgavam sobre setenta jumentos: e julgou a Israel oito anos.
He had forty sons and thirty sons’ sons who rode on seventy donkey colts. He judged Israel eight years.
15 Então faleceu Abdon, filho de Hillel, o pirathonita: e foi sepultado em Pirathon, na terra de Ephraim, no monte do amalekita.
Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.
