1 Samuel 18
1 E assim que ele acabou de falar com Saul, a alma de Jônatas se apegou à de Davi, e Jônatas o amou como à sua alma.
And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
2 E Saul o tomou naquele dia, e não o deixou voltar à casa de seu pai.
And Saul took him that day, and would no more let him go home to his father's house.
3 E fizeram aliança Jônatas e Davi, porque ele lhe amava como a sua alma.
Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
4 E Jônatas despiu a roupa que tinha sobre si, e deu-a a Davi, e outras roupas suas, até sua espada, e seu arco, e seu cinto.
And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his apparel, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his belt.
5 E Davi saía para onde quer que Saul o enviasse, e portava-se prudentemente. Fê-lo, portanto, Saul capitão da gente de guerra, e era aceito aos olhos de todo o povo, e nos olhos dos criados de Saul.
And David went out wherever Saul sent him, and behaved himself wisely. And Saul set him over the men of war, and it was good in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
6 E aconteceu que quando voltavam eles, quando Davi voltou de matar ao filisteu, saíram as mulheres de todas as cidades de Israel cantando, e com danças, com tamboris, e com alegrias e adufes, a receber ao rei Saul.
And it came to pass as they came, when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with timbrels, with joy, and with instruments of music.
7 E cantavam as mulheres que dançavam, e diziam: Saul feriu seus milhares, E Davi seus dez milhares.
And the women sang one to another as they played, and said, Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.
8 E irou-se Saul em grande maneira, e desagradou esta palavra em seus olhos, e disse: A Davi deram dez milhares, e a mim milhares; não lhe falta mais que o reino.
And Saul was very angry, and this saying displeased him, and he said, They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands, and what can he have more but the kingdom?
9 E desde aquele dia Saul olhou com desconfiança a Davi.
And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.
10 Outro dia aconteceu que o espírito mau da parte de Deus tomou a Saul, e mostrava-se em sua casa com trejeitos de profeta: e Davi tocava com sua mão como os outros dias; e estava uma lança à mão de Saul.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that an evil spirit from God came mightily upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house. And David played with his hand, as he did day by day, and Saul had his spear in his hand.
11 E lançou Saul a lança, dizendo: Encravarei a Davi na parede. E duas vezes se afastou dele Davi.
And Saul cast the spear, for he said, I will smite David even to the wall. And David turned away from his presence twice.
12 Mas Saul se temia de Davi porquanto o SENHOR era com ele, e havia se afastado de Saul.
And Saul was afraid of David because Jehovah was with him, and was departed from Saul.
13 Afastou-o, pois, Saul de si, e fez-lhe capitão de mil; e saía e entrava diante do povo.
Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand, and he went out and came in before the people.
14 E Davi se conduzia prudentemente em todos seus negócios, e o SENHOR era com ele.
And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways, and Jehovah was with him.
15 E vendo Saul que se portava tão prudentemente, temia-se dele.
And when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he was afraid of him.
16 Mas todos os de Israel e Judá amavam a Davi, porque ele saía e entrava diante deles.
But all Israel and Judah loved David, for he went out and came in before them.
17 E disse Saul a Davi: Eis que eu te darei a Merabe minha filha maior por mulher: somente que me sejas homem valente, e faças as guerras do SENHOR. Mas Saul dizia: Não será minha mão contra ele, mas a mão dos filisteus será contra ele.
And Saul said to David, Behold, my elder daughter Merab, I will give her to thee for a wife. Only be thou valiant for me, and fight Jehovah's battles. For Saul said, Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.
18 E Davi respondeu a Saul: Quem sou eu, ou que é minha vida, ou a família de meu pai em Israel, para ser genro do rei?
And David said to Saul, Who am I, and what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?
19 E vindo o tempo em que Merabe, filha de Saul, se havia de dar a Davi, foi dada por mulher a Adriel meolatita.
But it came to pass at the time when Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite to wife.
20 Mas Mical a outra filha de Saul amava a Davi; e foi dito a Saul, o qual foi conveniente em seus olhos.
And Michal, Saul's daughter, loved David, and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.
21 E Saul disse: Eu a darei a ele, para que lhe seja por armadilha, e para que a mão dos filisteus seja contra ele. Disse, pois, Saul a Davi: Com a outra serás meu genro hoje.
And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him. Therefore Saul said to David, Thou shall this day be my son-in-law a second time.
22 E mandou Saul a seus criados: Falai em secreto a Davi, dizendo-lhe: Eis que, o rei te ama, e todos seus criados te querem bem; sê, pois, genro do rei.
And Saul commanded his servants, saying, Converse with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king has delight in thee, and all his servants love thee. Now therefore be the king's son-in-law.
23 E os criados de Saul falaram estas palavras aos ouvidos de Davi. E Davi disse: Parece-vos que é pouco ser genro do rei, sendo eu um homem pobre e de nenhuma estima?
And Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. And David said, Does it seem to you a light thing to be the king's son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?
24 E os criados de Saul lhe deram a resposta dizendo: Tais palavras disse Davi.
And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner David spoke.
25 E Saul disse: Dizei assim a Davi: Não está o contentamento do rei no dote, mas sim em cem prepúcios de filisteus, para que seja tomada vingança dos inimigos do rei. Mas Saul pensava lançar a Davi em mãos dos filisteus.
And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David, The king does not desire any dowry, but a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
26 E quando seus criados declararam a Davi estas palavras, foi conveniente a coisa nos olhos de Davi, para ser genro do rei. E quando o prazo não era ainda cumprido,
And when his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son-in-law. And the days were not expired.
27 Levantou-se Davi, e partiu-se com sua gente, e feriu duzentos homens dos filisteus; e trouxe Davi os prepúcios deles, e entregaram-nos todos ao rei, para que ele fosse feito genro do rei. E Saul lhe deu a sua filha Mical por mulher.
And David arose and went, he and his men, and killed of the Philistines two hundred men. And David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter to wife.
28 Porém Saul, vendo e considerando que o SENHOR era com Davi, e que sua filha Mical o amava,
And Saul saw and knew that Jehovah was with David, and Michal, Saul's daughter, loved him.
29 Temeu-se mais de Davi; e foi Saul inimigo de Davi todos os dias.
And Saul was yet the more afraid of David, and Saul was David's enemy continually.
30 E saíam os príncipes dos filisteus; e quando eles saíam, portava-se Davi mais prudentemente que todos os servos de Saul: e era seu nome muito ilustre.
Then the rulers of the Philistines went forth, and it came to pass, as often as they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul, so that his name was very precious.
