< Josué 3 >
1 E levantou-se Josué de manhã, e partiram de Sitim, e vieram até o Jordão, ele e todos os filhos de Israel, e repousaram ali antes que passassem.
And he rose early Joshua in the morning and they set out from Shittim and they came to the Jordan he and all [the] people Israel and they stayed there before they passed over.
2 E passados três dias, os oficiais atravessaram por meio do acampamento,
And it was from [the] end of three days and they passed the officers in [the] midst of the camp.
3 E mandaram ao povo, dizendo: Quando virdes a arca do pacto do SENHOR vosso Deus, e os sacerdotes e levitas que a levam, vós partireis de vosso lugar, e marchareis atrás dela.
And they commanded the people saying when see you [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh God your and the priests the Levites carrying it and you you will set out from place your and you will go behind it.
4 Porém entre vós e ela haja distância como da medida de dois mil côvados: e não vos aproximareis dela, a fim de que saibais o caminho por onde haveis de ir: porquanto vós não passastes antes de agora por este caminho.
Nevertheless - a distance it will be between you (and between it *Q(k)*) about two thousand cubit[s] by measurement may not you draw near to it so that that you may know the way which you will go in it for not you have passed in the way from yesterday three days ago.
5 E Josué disse ao povo: Santificai-vos, porque o SENHOR fará amanhã entre vós maravilhas.
And he said Joshua to the people consecrate yourselves for tomorrow he will do Yahweh in midst your wonders.
6 E falou Josué aos sacerdotes, dizendo: Tomai a arca do pacto, e passai diante do povo. E eles tomaram a arca do pacto, e foram diante do povo.
And he said Joshua to the priests saying lift up [the] ark of the covenant and pass over before the people and they lifted up [the] ark of the covenant and they went before the people.
7 Então o SENHOR disse a Josué: Desde este dia começarei a fazer-te grande diante dos olhos de todo Israel, para que entendam que como fui com Moisés, assim serei contigo.
And he said Yahweh to Joshua the day this I will begin to make great you in [the] eyes of all Israel that they will know! that just as I was with Moses I will be with you.
8 Tu, pois, mandarás aos sacerdotes que levam a arca do pacto, dizendo: Quando houverdes entrado até a borda da água do Jordão, parareis no Jordão.
And you you will command the priests [the] bearers of [the] ark of the covenant saying when come you to [the] edge of [the] waters of the Jordan in the Jordan you will stand still.
9 E Josué disse aos filhos de Israel: Achegai-vos aqui, e escutai as palavras do SENHOR vosso Deus.
And he said Joshua to [the] people of Israel draw near hither and hear [the] words of Yahweh God your.
10 E acrescentou Josué: Em isto conhecereis que o Deus vivente está em meio de vós, e que ele lançará de diante de vós aos cananeus, e aos heteus, e aos heveus, e aos perizeus, e aos gergeseus, e aos amorreus, e aos jebuseus.
And he said Joshua by this you will know! that God living [is] in midst your and certainly he will dispossess from before you the Canaanite[s] and the Hittite[s] and the Hivite[s] and the Perizzite[s] and the Girgashite[s] and the Amorite[s] and the Jebusite[s].
11 Eis que, a arca do pacto do Dominador de toda a terra passa o Jordão diante de vós.
Here! [the] ark of the covenant [the] lord of all the earth [is] about to pass on before you in the Jordan.
12 Tomai, pois, agora doze homens das tribos de Israel, de cada tribo um.
And therefore take for yourselves two [plus] ten man from [the] tribes of Israel a man one a man one to the tribe.
13 E quando as plantas dos pés dos sacerdotes que levam a arca do SENHOR Dominador de toda a terra, forem assentadas sobre as águas do Jordão, as águas do Jordão se partirão: porque as águas que vem de acima se deterão em um amontoado.
And it will be when rest [the] soles of [the] feet of the priests [the] bearers of [the] ark of Yahweh [the] lord of all the earth in [the] waters of the Jordan [the] waters of the Jordan they will be cut off! the waters that are coming down from to above so they may stand a heap one.
14 E aconteceu que, partindo o povo de suas tendas para passar o Jordão, e os sacerdotes diante do povo levando a arca do pacto,
And it was when set out the people from tents their to pass over the Jordan and the priests [the] bearers of the ark the covenant before the people.
15 Quando os que levavam a arca chegaram no Jordão, assim como os pés dos sacerdotes que levavam a arca foram molhados à beira da água, (porque o Jordão costuma transbordar sobre todas as suas margens todo aquele tempo da colheita, )
And just as came [the] bearers of the ark to the Jordan and [the] feet of the priests [the] bearers of the ark they were dipped in [the] edge of the waters and the Jordan it is full over all banks its all [the] days of harvest.
16 As águas que vinham de cima pararam, e amontoaram-se bem longe, na cidade de Adã, que está ao lado de Zaretã; e as que desciam ao mar das planícies, ao mar Salgado, esgotaram-se e foram totalmente interrompidas; e o povo passou em frente de Jericó.
And they stood the waters which came down from to above they rose a heap one far away very (from Adam *Q(K)*) the city which [is] from [the] side of Zarethan and which went down to [the] sea of the Arabah [the] Sea of Salt they were complete they were cut off and the people they passed over before Jericho.
17 Mas os sacerdotes que levavam a arca do pacto do SENHOR, ficaram firmes em seco, no meio do Jordão, e todo Israel passou em seco, até que todo o povo acabou de passar o Jordão.
And they stood the priests [the] bearers of the ark [the] covenant of Yahweh on the dry ground in [the] middle of the Jordan firmly and all Israel [were] passing over on the dry ground until that they had finished all the nation to pass over the Jordan.
