1 Samuel 13
1 Havia já Saul reinado um ano; e reinado que houve dois anos sobre Israel,
Saul was...years old when he became king; and he reigned two years over Israel.
2 Escolheu-se logo três mil de Israel: os dois mil estiveram com Saul em Micmás e no monte de Betel, e os mil estiveram com Jônatas em Gibeá de Benjamim; e enviou a todo o outro povo cada um a suas tendas.
And Saul chose him three thousand men out of Israel: there were with Saul two thousand in Michmash and in mount Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin; and the rest of the people he sent every man to his tent.
3 E Jônatas feriu a guarnição dos filisteus que havia no morro, e ouviram-no os filisteus. E fez Saul tocar trombetas por toda a terra, dizendo: Ouçam os hebreus.
And Jonathan smote the outpost of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard [of it]. And Saul blew the trumpet throughout the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear.
4 E todo Israel ouviu o que se dizia: Saul feriu a guarnição dos filisteus; e também que Israel se tornou detestável aos filisteus. E juntou-se o povo sob o comando de Saul em Gilgal.
And all Israel heard say, Saul has smitten the garrison of the Philistines, and Israel also has become odious to the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal.
5 Então os filisteus se juntaram para lutar com Israel, trinta mil carros, e seis mil cavalos, e povo quando a areia que está à beira do mar em multidão; e subiram, e assentaram acampamento em Micmás, ao oriente de Bete-Áven.
And the Philistines were assembled together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea-shore in multitude; and they came up, and encamped in Michmash, eastward from Beth-Aven.
6 Mas os homens de Israel, vendo-se postos em apuros, (porque o povo estava em dificuldades), escondeu-se o povo em covas, em fossos, em penhascos, em rochas e em cisternas.
And the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait (for the people were distressed); and the people hid themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in cliffs, and in strongholds, and in pits.
7 E alguns dos hebreus passaram o Jordão à terra de Gade e de Gileade: e Saul se estava ainda em Gilgal, e todo o povo ia atrás dele tremendo.
And the Hebrews went over the Jordan into the land of Gad and Gilead. And Saul was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
8 E ele esperou sete dias, conforme ao prazo que Samuel havia dito; mas Samuel não vinha a Gilgal, e o povo se lhe desertava.
And he waited seven days, according to the set time that Samuel [had appointed]; but Samuel did not come to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.
9 Então disse Saul: Trazei-me holocausto e sacrifícios pacíficos. E ofereceu o holocausto.
And Saul said, Bring hither to me the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings. And he offered up the burnt-offering.
10 E quando ele acabava de fazer o holocausto, eis que Samuel que vinha; e Saul lhe saiu a receber para saudar-lhe.
And it came to pass, as soon as he had ended offering up the burnt-offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might salute him.
11 Então Samuel disse: Que fizeste? E Saul respondeu: Porque vi que o povo se me ia, e que tu não vinhas ao prazo dos dias, e que os filisteus estavam juntos em Micmás,
And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that thou didst not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines were assembled at Michmash,
12 Disse-me: Os filisteus descerão agora contra mim a Gilgal, e eu não implorei o favor do SENHOR. Esforcei-me pois, e ofereci holocausto.
I said, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication to Jehovah; and I forced myself, and offered up the burnt-offering.
13 Então Samuel disse a Saul: Loucamente fizeste; não guardaste o mandamento do SENHOR teu Deus, que ele te havia intimado; porque agora o SENHOR teria confirmado teu reino sobre Israel para sempre.
And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of Jehovah thy God which he commanded thee; for now would Jehovah have established thy kingdom over Israel for ever.
14 Mas agora teu reino não será durável: o SENHOR buscou para si homem segundo seu coração, ao qual o SENHOR mandou que seja líder sobre seu povo, porquanto tu não guardaste o que o SENHOR te mandou.
But now thy kingdom shall not continue: Jehovah has sought him a man after his own heart, and Jehovah has appointed him ruler over his people; for thou hast not kept what Jehovah commanded thee.
15 E levantando-se Samuel, subiu de Gilgal a Gibeá de Benjamim. E Saul contou a gente que se achava com ele, como seiscentos homens.
And Samuel arose and went up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were found with him, about six hundred men.
16 Então Saul e Jônatas seu filho, e o povo que com eles se achava, ficaram em Gibeá de Benjamim: mas os filisteus haviam posto seu acampamento em Micmás.
And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were found with them, abode in Geba of Benjamin; and the Philistines encamped in Michmash.
17 E saíram do acampamento dos filisteus em saque três esquadrões. O um esquadrão tirou pelo caminho de Ofra até a terra de Sual.
And the ravagers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned the way of Ophrah, into the land of Shual;
18 O outro esquadrão marchou até Bete-Horom, e o terceiro esquadrão marchou até a região que está voltada ao vale de Zeboim até o deserto.
and another company turned the way to Beth-horon; and the other company turned the way to the district that looks over the ravine of Zeboim toward the wilderness.
19 E em toda a terra de Israel não se achava ferreiro; porque os filisteus haviam dito: Para que os hebreus não façam espada ou lança.
Now there was no smith found throughout the land of Israel; for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make them swords or spears.
20 E todos os de Israel desciam aos filisteus cada qual a amolar sua relha, sua enxada, seu machado, ou seu sacho,
And all Israel went down to the Philistines, every man to get his ploughshare, and his hoe, and his axe, and his sickle sharpened,
21 E cobravam certo preço pelas relhas, pelas enxadas, e pelas forquilhas, e outro para afiar os machados, e as aguilhadas.
when the edges of the sickles, and the hoes, and the forks, and the axes were blunted; and to set the goads.
22 Assim aconteceu que o dia da batalha não se achou espada nem lança em mão de algum de todo o povo que estava com Saul e com Jônatas, exceto Saul e Jônatas seu filho, que as tinham.
And it came to pass in the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan; but with Saul and with Jonathan his son there was found.
23 E a guarnição dos filisteus saiu ao desfiladeiro de Micmás.
And a garrison of the Philistines went out to the passage of Michmash.
