1 Samuel 17
1 E os filisteus juntaram seus exércitos para a guerra, e congregaram-se em Socó, que é de Judá, e assentaram o campo entre Socó e Azeca, em Efes-Damim.
Now the Philistines, gathering their troops for battle, assembled at Socoh of Judah. And they made camp between Socoh and Azekah, within the borders of Dammim.
2 E também Saul e os homens de Israel se juntaram, e assentaram o acampamento no vale de Elá, e ordenaram a batalha contra os filisteus.
But Saul and the sons of Israel, having gathered together, went to the Valley of Terebinth. And they positioned the army so as to fight against the Philistines.
3 E os filisteus estavam sobre o um monte da uma parte, e Israel estava sobre o outro monte da outra parte, e o vale entre eles:
And the Philistines were standing on a mountain on the one side, and Israel was standing on a mountain on the other side. And there was a valley between them.
4 Saiu então um homem do acampamento dos filisteus que se pôs entre os dois campos, o qual se chamava Golias, de Gate, e tinha de altura seis côvados e um palmo.
And there went out from the camp of the Philistines, a man of illegitimate birth, named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a palm.
5 E trazia um capacete de bronze em sua cabeça, e ia vestido com couraças de placas: e era o peso da couraça cinco mil siclos de bronze:
And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clothed with a breastplate of scales. Moreover, the weight of his breastplate was five thousand shekels of brass.
6 E sobre suas pernas trazia caneleiras de ferro, e escudo de bronze a seus ombros.
And he had plates of brass on his lower legs, and a small shield of brass was covering his shoulders.
7 A haste de sua lança era como um lançador de tear, e tinha o ferro de sua lança seiscentos siclos de ferro: e ia seu escudeiro diante dele.
Now the shaft of his spear was like the beam used by a weaver. And the iron of his spear held six hundred shekels of iron. And his armor bearer went before him.
8 E parou-se, e deu vozes aos esquadrões de Israel, dizendo-lhes: Para que saís a dar batalha? não sou eu o filisteu, e vós os servos de Saul? Escolhei dentre vós um homem que venha contra mim:
And standing still, he cried out to the battle lines of Israel, and he said to them: “Why have you arrived, prepared for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and are you not the servants of Saul? Choose one man from among you, and let him descend to do battle alone.
9 Se ele puder lutar comigo, e me vencer, nós seremos vossos servos: e se eu puder mais que ele, e o vencer, vós sereis nossos servos e nos servireis.
If he is able to fight with me and to strike me down, we will be your servants. But if I will prevail over him, and strike him down, you will be the servants, and you will serve us.”
10 E acrescentou o filisteu: Hoje eu desafiei o acampamento de Israel; dá-me um homem que lute comigo.
And the Philistine was saying: “I have reproached the troops of Israel today. Present a man to me, and let him undertake a fight against me alone.”
11 E ouvindo Saul e todo Israel estas palavras do filisteu, perturbaram-se, e tiveram grande medo.
And Saul and all the Israelites, hearing these words of the Philistine in this manner, were stupefied and exceedingly afraid.
12 E Davi era filho daquele homem efrateu de Belém de Judá, cujo nome era Jessé, o qual tinha oito filhos; e era este homem no tempo de Saul, velho, e de grande idade entre os homens.
Now David was the son of an Ephrathite man, the one mentioned above, from Bethlehem of Judah, whose name was Jesse. He had eight sons, and during the days of Saul, he was an elderly man, and of great age among men.
13 E os três filhos mais velhos de Jessé haviam ido a perseguir a Saul na guerra. E os nomes de seus três filhos que haviam ido à guerra, eram, Eliabe o primogênito, o segundo Abinadabe, e o terceiro Samá.
Now his three eldest sons followed Saul into battle. And the names of his three sons, who went to the battle, were Eliab, the firstborn, and the second, Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
14 E Davi era o mais novo. Seguiram, pois, os três maiores a Saul.
But David was the youngest. Therefore, when the three eldest had followed Saul,
15 Porém Davi ia e voltava de perto de Saul, para apascentar as ovelhas de seu pai em Belém.
David went away from Saul, and he returned, so that he might pasture the flock of his father at Bethlehem.
16 Vinha, pois, aquele filisteu pela manhã e à tarde, e apresentou-se por quarenta dias.
Truly, the Philistine advanced morning and evening, and he stood forth, for forty days.
17 E disse Jessé a Davi seu filho: Toma agora para teus irmãos um efá deste grão tostado, e estes dez pães, e leva-o logo ao acampamento a teus irmãos.
Now Jesse said to his son David: “Take, for your brothers, an ephah of cooked grain, and these ten loaves, and hurry to the camp, to your brothers.
18 Levarás também estes dez queijos de leite ao capitão, e cuida de ver se teus irmãos estão bem, e toma garantias deles.
And you shall carry these ten little cheeses to the tribune. And visit your brothers, to see if they are doing well. And learn with whom they have been stationed.”
19 E Saul e eles e todos os de Israel, estavam no vale de Elá, lutando com os filisteus.
But they were in the valley of Terebinth, with Saul and all the sons of Israel, fighting against the Philistines.
20 Levantou-se, pois, Davi de manhã, e deixando as ovelhas ao cuidado de um guarda, foi-se com sua carga, como Jessé lhe havia mandado; e chegou ao entrincheiramento do exército, o qual havia saído em ordem de batalha, e tocava alarme para a luta.
And so, David rose up in the morning, and he commended the flock to the caretaker. And he went away burdened, just as Jesse had instructed him. And he went to the place of the battle line, and to the army, which, in going out to fight, was shouting in the conflict.
21 Porque tanto os israelitas como os filisteus estavam em ordem de batalha, esquadrão contra esquadrão.
For Israel had positioned their troops, but the Philistines also had prepared themselves against them.
22 E Davi deixou de sobre si a carga em mão do que guardava a bagagem, e correu ao esquadrão; e chegado que houve, perguntava por seus irmãos, se estavam bem.
Then, leaving the items that he had brought under the hand of the keeper of baggage, David ran to the place of the conflict. And he was asking if all was going well with his brothers.
23 E estando ele falando com eles, eis que aquele homem que se punha em meio dos dois acampamentos, que se chamava Golias, o filisteu de Gate, saiu dos esquadrões dos filisteus, e falou as mesmas palavras; as quais ouviu Davi.
And while he was still speaking with them, there appeared the man of spurious descent, whose name was Goliath, the Philistine of Gath, ascending from the camp of the Philistines. And he was speaking in these same words, which David heard.
24 E todos os homens de Israel que viam aquele homem, fugiam de sua presença, e tinham grande temor.
Then all the Israelites, when they had seen the man, fled from his face, fearing him greatly.
25 E cada um dos de Israel dizia: Não vistes aquele homem que saiu? Ele se adianta para provocar a Israel. Ao que lhe vencer, o rei lhe enriquecerá com grandes riquezas, e lhe dará sua filha, e fará livre de tributos a casa de seu pai em Israel.
And someone of Israel said: “Have you seen this man, who has risen up. For he ascended in order to reproach Israel. Therefore, the man who will strike him down, the king will enrich with great wealth, and will give to him his daughter, and will cause his father’s house to be free of tribute in Israel.”
26 Então falou Davi aos que junto a ele estavam, dizendo: Que farão ao homem que vencer a este filisteu, e tirar a humilhação de Israel? Porque quem é este filisteu incircunciso, para que provoque aos esquadrões do Deus vivente?
And David spoke to the men who were standing with him, saying: “What will be given to the man who will have struck down this Philistine, and who will have taken away the disgrace from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should reproach the soldiers of the living God?”
27 E o povo lhe respondeu as mesmas palavras, dizendo: Assim se fará ao homem que o vencer.
Then the people repeated to him the same words, saying, “These things shall be given to the man who will have struck him down.”
28 E ouvindo-lhe falar Eliabe seu irmão mais velho com aqueles homens, Eliabe se acendeu em ira contra Davi, e disse: Para que hás descido aqui? e a quem deixaste aquelas poucas ovelhas no deserto? Eu conheço tua soberba e a malícia de teu coração, que vieste para ver a batalha.
Now when Eliab, his eldest brother, had heard this, as he was speaking with the others, he became angry against David, and he said: “Why did you come here? And why did you leave behind those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the wickedness of your heart, that you have come down so that you might see the battle.”
29 E Davi respondeu: Que fiz eu agora? Não são estas apenas palavras?
And David said: “What have I done? Is there any word against me?”
30 E apartando-se dele até outros, falou o mesmo; e responderam-lhe os do povo como da primeira vez.
And he turned away from him a little, toward another. And he asked the same question. And the people responded to him as before.
31 E foram ouvidas as palavras que Davi havia dito, as quais quando referiram diante de Saul, ele o fez vir.
Now the words that David had spoken were heard and reported in the sight of Saul.
32 E disse Davi a Saul: Não desmaie ninguém por causa dele; teu servo irá e lutará com este filisteu.
When he had been led to Saul, he said to him: “Let no one lose heart over him. I, your servant, shall go and fight against the Philistine.”
33 E disse Saul a Davi: Não poderás tu ir contra aquele filisteu, para lutar com ele; porque tu és jovem, e ele um homem de guerra desde sua juventude.
And Saul said to David: “You are not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him. For you are a boy, but he has been a warrior from his boyhood.”
34 E Davi respondeu a Saul: Teu servo era pastor das ovelhas de seu pai, e vinha um leão, ou um urso, e tomava algum cordeiro do rebanho,
And David said to Saul: “Your servant was pasturing the flock of his father. And there approached a lion or a bear, and it took a ram from the midst of the flock.
35 E saía eu atrás dele, e feria-o, e livrava-lhe de sua boca: e se se levantava contra mim, eu o segurava pelo queixo, feria-o, e o matava.
And I pursued after them, and I struck them, and I rescued from their mouth. And they rose up against me. And I caught them by the throat, and I strangled and killed them.
36 Fosse leão, fosse urso, teu servo o matava; pois este filisteu incircunciso será como um deles, porque provocou ao exército do Deus vivente.
For I, your servant, have killed both lion and bear. And so this uncircumcised Philistine, too, will be like one of them. Now I will go and take away the reproach of the people. For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, who has dared to curse the army of the living God?”
37 E acrescentou Davi: o SENHOR que me livrou das garras do leão e das garras do urso, ele também me livrará da mão deste filisteu. E disse Saul a Davi: Vai, e o SENHOR seja contigo.
And David said, “The Lord who rescued me from the hand of the lion, and from the hand of the bear, he himself will free me from the hand of this Philistine.” Then Saul said to David, “Go, and may the Lord be with you.”
38 E Saul revestiu a Davi de suas roupas, e pôs sobre sua cabeça um capacete de bronze, e armou-lhe de couraça.
And Saul clothed David with his garments. And he placed a helmet of brass upon his head, and he clothed him with a breastplate.
39 E cingiu Davi sua espada sobre suas roupas, e provou a andar, porque nunca havia provado. E disse Davi a Saul: Eu não posso andar com isto, porque nunca o pratiquei. E lançando de si Davi aquelas coisas,
Then David, having girded his sword over his armor, began to see if he could walk in the armor. But he was not accustomed to it. And David said to Saul: “I cannot move about in this way. For I am not used to it.” And he put them aside.
40 Tomou seu cajado em sua mão, e escolheu para si cinco pedras lisas do ribeiro, e as pôs no saco pastoril e na sacola que trazia, e com sua funda em sua mão foi até o filisteu.
And he took up his staff, which he held always in his hands. And he chose for himself five very smooth stones from the torrent. And he put them into the shepherd’s bag that he had with him. And he took up a sling in his hand. And he went out against the Philistine.
41 E o filisteu vinha andando e aproximando-se a Davi, e seu escudeiro diante dele.
And the Philistine, advancing, went and drew near against David. And his armor bearer was before him.
42 E quando o filisteu olhou e viu a Davi, menosprezou-o; porque era rapaz, e ruivo, e de bela aparência.
And when the Philistine had seen and considered David, he despised him. For he was a youth, ruddy and of handsome appearance.
43 E disse o filisteu a Davi: Sou eu cão para que venhas a mim com paus? E amaldiçoou a Davi por seus deuses.
And the Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you approach against me with a staff?” And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
44 Disse logo o filisteu a Davi: Vem a mim, e darei tua carne às aves do céu, e aos animais do campo.
And he said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.”
45 Então disse Davi ao filisteu: Tu vens a mim com espada e lança e escudo; mas eu venho a ti no nome do SENHOR dos exércitos, o Deus dos esquadrões de Israel, que tu provocaste.
But David said to the Philistine: “You approach me with sword, and spear, and shield. But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which you have reproached.
46 o SENHOR te entregará hoje em minha mão, e eu te vencerei, e tirarei tua cabeça de ti: e darei hoje os corpos dos filisteus às aves do céu e aos animais da terra: e saberá a terra toda que há Deus em Israel.
Today, the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you down. And I will take your head from you. And today, I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth, so that all the earth may know that God is with Israel.
47 E saberá toda esta congregação que o SENHOR não salva com espada e lança; porque do SENHOR é la guerra, e ele vos entregará em nossas mãos.
And this entire assembly will know that the Lord does not save by sword, nor by spear. For this is his war, and he will deliver you into our hands.”
48 E aconteceu que, quando o filisteu se levantou para ir e chegar-se contra Davi, Davi se deu pressa, e correu ao combate contra o filisteu.
Then, when the Philistine had risen up, and was approaching, and was drawing near against David, David hurried and ran to the fight against the Philistine.
49 E metendo Davi sua mão no saco, tomou dali uma pedra, e atirou-a com a funda, e feriu ao filisteu na testa: e a pedra ficou fincada na testa, e caiu em terra sobre seu rosto.
And he put his hand into his bag, and took out one stone. And swinging it around, he cast it with the sling and struck the Philistine on the forehead. And the stone became imbedded in his forehead. And he fell on his face, upon the ground.
50 Assim venceu Davi ao filisteu com funda e pedra; e feriu ao filisteu e o matou, sem ter Davi espada em sua mão.
And David prevailed against the Philistine with a sling and a stone. And he struck and killed the Philistine. But since David held no sword in his hand,
51 Mas correu Davi e pôs-se sobre o filisteu, e tomando a espada dele, tirando-a de sua bainha, o matou, e cortou-lhe com ela a cabeça. E quando os filisteus viram seu gigante morto, fugiram.
he ran and stood over the Philistine, and he took his sword, and withdrew it from the sheath. And he killed him and cut off his head. Then the Philistines, seeing that their strongest man was dead, fled away.
52 E levantando-se os de Israel e de Judá, deram grito, e seguiram aos filisteus até chegar ao vale, e até as portas de Ecrom. E caíram feridos dos filisteus pelo caminho de Saaraim, até Gate e Ecrom.
And the men of Israel and Judah, rising up, shouted and pursued after the Philistines, even until they arrived at the valley and as far as the gates of Ekron. And many wounded among the Philistines fell on the way of Shaaraim, and as far as Gath, and as far as Ekron.
53 Tornando logo os filhos de Israel de perseguir os filisteus, despojaram seu acampamento.
And the sons of Israel, returning after they had pursued the Philistines, invaded their camp.
54 E Davi tomou a cabeça do filisteu, e trouxe-a a Jerusalém, mas pôs suas armas em sua tenda.
Then David, taking up the head of the Philistine, brought it to Jerusalem. Yet truly, he placed his armor in his own tent.
55 E quando Saul viu a Davi que saía a encontrar-se com o filisteu, disse a Abner general do exército: Abner, de quem é filho aquele rapaz? E Abner respondeu:
Now at the time that Saul had seen David going out against the Philistines, he said to Abner, the leader of the military, “From what stock is this youth descended, Abner?” And Abner said, “As your soul lives, O king, I do not know.”
56 Vive tua alma, ó rei, que não o sei. E o rei disse: Pergunta, pois, de quem é filho aquele rapaz.
And the king said, “You shall inquire as to whose son this boy may be.”
57 E quando Davi voltava de matar ao filisteu, Abner o tomou, e levou-o diante de Saul, tendo a cabeça do filisteu em sua mão.
And when David had returned, after the Philistine had been struck down, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul, having the head of the Philistine in his hand.
58 E disse-lhe Saul: Rapaz, de quem és filho? E Davi respondeu: Eu sou filho de teu servo Jessé de Belém.
And Saul said to him, “Young man, from what ancestry are you?” And David said, “I am the son of your servant Jesse of Bethlehem.”
