Juízes 2
1 E subiu o anjo do Senhor de Gilgal a Bochim, e disse: Do Egito vos fiz subir, e vos trouxe à terra que a vossos pais tinha jurado e dito: Nunca invalidarei o meu concerto convosco.
The angel of YHWH came up from Gilgal to Bochim. He said, "I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you to the land which I swore to your fathers; and I said, 'I will never break my covenant with you:
2 E, quanto a vós, não fareis concerto com os moradores desta terra, antes derrubareis os seus altares: mas vós não obedecestes à minha voz. Porque fizestes isto
and you shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; you shall break down their altars.' But you have not listened to my voice: why have you done this?
3 Pelo que também eu disso: Não os expelirei de diante de vós: antes estarão às vossas ilhargas, e os seus deuses vos serão por laço
Therefore I also said, I will not drive them out from before you, but they will become your adversaries, and their gods shall be a snare to you."
4 E sucedeu que, falando o anjo do Senhor estas palavras a todos os filhos de Israel, o povo levantou a sua voz e chorou.
It happened, when the angel of YHWH spoke these words to all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
5 Pelo que chamaram àquele lugar, Bochim: e sacrificaram ali ao Senhor.
They called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there to YHWH.
6 E havendo Josué despedido o povo, foram-se os filhos de Israel, cada um à sua herdade, para possuirem a terra.
Now when Joshua had sent the people away, the children of Israel went every man to his inheritance to possess the land.
7 E serviu o povo ao Senhor todos os dias de Josué, e todos os dias dos anciãos que prolongaram os seus dias depois de Josué, e viram toda aquela grande obra do Senhor, que fizera a Israel.
The people served YHWH all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great work of YHWH that he had worked for Israel.
8 Faleceu porém Josué, filho de Nun, servo do Senhor, da idade de cento e dez anos;
Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of YHWH, died, being one hundred ten years old.
9 E sepultaram-no no termo da sua herdade, em Timnath-heres, no monte de Ephraim, para o norte do monte de Gaas.
They buried him in the territory of his inheritance in Timnath Serah, in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of the mountain of Gaash.
10 E foi também congregada toda aquela geração a seus pais, e outra geração após deles se levantou, que não conhecia ao Senhor, nem tão pouco a obra, que fizera a Israel
And all that generation were also gathered to their fathers. And there arose another generation after them who did not know YHWH, nor the works which he had done for Israel.
11 Então fizeram os filhos de Israel o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor: e serviram os baalins.
The children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, and served the Baals;
12 E deixaram ao Senhor Deus de seus pais, que os tirara da terra do Egito, e foram-se após de outros deuses, dentre os deuses das gentes, que havia ao redor deles, e encurvaram-se a eles: e provocaram ao Senhor a ira.
and they forsook YHWH, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the peoples who were around them, and bowed themselves down to them: and they provoked YHWH to anger.
13 Porquanto deixaram ao Senhor: e serviram a Baal e a Astaroth.
They forsook YHWH, and served Baal and the Ashtaroth.
14 Pelo que a ira do Senhor se acendeu contra Israel, e os deu na mão dos roubadores, e os roubaram: e os entregou na mão dos seus inimigos ao redor: e não puderam mais estar em pé diante dos seus inimigos.
The anger of YHWH was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of marauders who plundered them; and he sold them into the hands of their enemies all around, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies.
15 Por onde quer que saiam, a mão do Senhor era contra eles para mal, como o Senhor tinha dito, e como o Senhor lho tinha jurado: e estavam em grande aperto.
Wherever they went out, the hand of YHWH was against them for harm, as YHWH had spoken, and as YHWH had sworn to them: and they were in great distress.
16 E levantou o Senhor juízes, que os livraram da mão dos que os roubaram.
YHWH raised up judges, who saved them out of the hand of those who plundered them.
17 Porém tão pouco ouviram aos juízes, anteu fornicaram após outros deuses, e encurvaram-se a eles: depressa se desviaram do caminho, por onde andaram seus pais, ouvindo os mandamentos do Senhor; o que eles assim não fizeram.
Yet they did not listen to their judges; for they played the prostitute after other gods, and bowed themselves down to them: they turned aside quickly out of the way in which their fathers walked, obeying the commandments of YHWH; but they did not do so.
18 E, quando o Senhor lhes levantava juízes, o Senhor era com o juiz, e os livrava da mão dos seus inimigos, todos os dias daquele juiz; porquanto o Senhor se arrependia pelo seu gemido, por causa dos que os apertavam e oprimiam.
When YHWH raised up judges for them, then YHWH was with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it grieved YHWH because of their groaning by reason of those who oppressed them and troubled them.
19 Porém sucedia que, falecendo o juiz, tornavam e se corrompiam mais do que seus pais, andando após de outros deuses, servindo-os, e encurvando-se a eles: nada deixavam das suas obras, nem do seu duro caminho.
But it happened, when the judge was dead, that they turned back, and dealt more corruptly than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down to them; they did not cease from their practices, and they did not turn aside from their stubborn ways.
20 Pelo que a ira do Senhor se acendeu contra Israel; e disse: Porquanto este povo traspassou o meu concerto, que tinha ordenado a seus pais, e não deram ouvidos à minha voz.
The anger of YHWH was kindled against Israel; and he said, "Because this nation has transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not obeyed my voice;
21 Tão pouco desapossarei mais de diante deles a nenhuma das nações, que Josué deixou, morrendo;
I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations that Joshua left when he died;
22 Para por elas provar a Israel, se houvessem de guardar o caminho do Senhor, para por ele andarem, como seus pais o guardaram, ou não.
that by them I may test Israel, whether they will keep the way of YHWH to walk in it, as their fathers kept it, or not."
23 Assim o Senhor deixou ficar aquelas nações, e não as desterrou logo, nem as entregou na mão de Josué.
So YHWH left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua.
