Juízes 20
1 Então saíram todos os filhos de Israel, e reuniu-se a congregação como um só homem, desde Dã até Berseba e a terra de Gileade, ao SENHOR em Mispá.
Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was assembled as one man, from Dan even to Beersheba, with the land of Gilead, to YHWH at Mizpah.
2 E os principais de todo aquele povo, de todas as tribos de Israel, se acharam presentes na reunião do povo de Deus, quatrocentos mil homens a pé que tiravam espada.
The leaders of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, presented themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen who drew sword.
3 E os filhos de Benjamim ouviram que os filhos de Israel haviam subido a Mispá. E disseram os filhos de Israel: Dizei como foi esta maldade.
(Now the people of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel had gone up to Mizpah.) The children of Israel said, "Tell us, how did this wickedness happen?"
4 Então o homem levita, marido da mulher morta, respondeu e disse: Eu cheguei a Gibeá de Benjamim com minha concubina, para ter ali a noite.
The Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered, answered and said, "I came into Gibeah that belongs to Benjamin, I and my secondary wife, to spend the night.
5 E levantando-se contra mim os de Gibeá, cercaram sobre mim a casa de noite, com ideia de matar-me, e oprimiram minha concubina de tal maneira, que ela foi morta.
And the leaders of Gibeah rose against me, and surrounded the house at night. They intended to kill me, and they raped my secondary wife, and she is dead.
6 Então tomando eu minha concubina, cortei-a em peças, e enviei-as por todo aquele termo da possessão de Israel: porquanto fizeram maldade e crime em Israel.
I took my secondary wife, and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the territory of the inheritance of Israel; for they have committed wickedness and disgrace in Israel.
7 Eis que todos vós os filhos de Israel estais presentes; dai-vos aqui parecer e conselho.
Look, you children of Israel, all of you, give your advice and counsel here."
8 Então todo aquele povo, como um só homem, se levantou, e disseram: Nenhum de nós irá à sua tenda, nem nos apartaremos cada um à sua casa,
All the people arose as one man, saying, "None of us will go to his tent, neither will any of us return to his house.
9 Até que façamos isto sobre Gibeá: que lancemos sortes contra ela;
But now this is the thing which we will do to Gibeah: we will go up against it by lot;
10 E tomaremos dez homens de cada cem por todas as tribos de Israel, e de cada mil cem, e mil de cada dez mil, que levem mantimento para o povo que deve agir, indo contra Gibeá de Benjamim, conforme toda a abominação que havia cometido em Israel.
and we will take ten men of one hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and one hundred of one thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to get food for the people, those setting forth, that when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin they may repay all the disgrace that they have committed in Israel."
11 E juntaram-se todos os homens de Israel contra a cidade, ligados como um só homem.
So all the men of Israel gathered against the city, united as one man.
12 E as tribos de Israel enviaram homens por toda a tribo de Benjamim, dizendo: Que maldade é esta que foi feita entre vós?
The tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, "What wickedness is this that has happened among you?
13 Entregai, pois, agora aqueles homens, malignos, que estão em Gibeá, para que os matemos, e varramos o mal de Israel. Mas os de Benjamim não quiseram ouvir a voz de seus irmãos os filhos de Israel;
Now therefore deliver up the men, the wicked men who are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death, and put away evil from Israel." But the sons of Benjamin would not listen to the voice of their brothers, the children of Israel.
14 Antes os de Benjamim se juntaram das cidades de Gibeá, para sair a lutar contra os filhos de Israel.
The people of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities to Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel.
15 E foram contados naquele tempo os filhos de Benjamim das cidades, vinte e seis mil homens que tiravam espada, sem os que moravam em Gibeá, que foram por conta setecentos homens escolhidos.
The people of Benjamin were numbered on that day out of the cities twenty-six thousand men who drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gibeah, who were numbered seven hundred chosen men.
16 De toda aquela gente havia setecentos homens escolhidos, que eram canhotos, todos os quais atiravam uma pedra com a funda a um fio de cabelo, e não erravam.
Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men left-handed; everyone could sling stones at a hair and not miss.
17 E foram contados os homens de Israel, fora de Benjamim, quatrocentos mil homens que tiravam espada, todos estes homens de guerra.
The men of Israel, besides Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men who drew sword: all these were men of war.
18 Levantaram-se logo os filhos de Israel, e subiram à casa de Deus, e consultaram a Deus, dizendo: Quem subirá de nós o primeiro na guerra contra os filhos de Benjamim? E o SENHOR respondeu: Judá o primeiro.
The children of Israel arose, and went up to Bethel, and asked counsel of God; and they said, "Who shall go up for us first to battle against the people of Benjamin?" YHWH said, "Judah will go up first."
19 Levantando-se, pois, de manhã os filhos de Israel, puseram acampamento contra Gibeá.
The children of Israel rose up in the morning, and camped against Gibeah.
20 E saíram os filhos de Israel a combater contra Benjamim; e os homens de Israel ordenaram a batalha contra eles junto a Gibeá.
The men of Israel went out to battle against Benjamin; and the men of Israel set the battle in array against them at Gibeah.
21 Saindo então de Gibeá os filhos de Benjamim, derrubaram em terra aquele dia vinte e dois mil homens dos filhos de Israel.
The people of Benjamin came forth out of Gibeah, and destroyed down to the ground of the Israelites on that day twenty-two thousand men.
22 Mas reanimando-se o povo, os homens de Israel voltaram a ordenar a batalha no mesmo lugar onde a haviam ordenado o primeiro dia.
The people, the men of Israel, encouraged themselves, and set the battle again in array in the place where they set themselves in array the first day.
23 Porque os filhos de Israel subiram, e choraram diante do SENHOR até à tarde, e consultaram com o SENHOR, dizendo: Voltarei a lutar com os filhos de Benjamim meu irmão? E o SENHOR lhes respondeu: Subi contra ele.
The children of Israel went up and wept before YHWH until evening; and they asked of YHWH, saying, "Shall I again draw near to battle against the people of Benjamin my brother?" YHWH said, "Go up against him."
24 Então os filhos de Israel se aproximaram no dia seguinte contra os filhos de Benjamim.
The children of Israel came near against the people of Benjamin the second day.
25 E aquele segundo dia, saindo Benjamim de Gibeá contra eles, derrubaram por terra outros dezoito mil homens dos filhos de Israel, todos os quais tiravam espada.
Benjamin went forth against them out of Gibeah the second day, and destroyed down to the ground of the children of Israel again eighteen thousand men; all these drew the sword.
26 Então subiram todos os filhos de Israel, e todo aquele povo, e vieram à casa de Deus; e choraram, e sentaram-se ali diante do SENHOR, e jejuaram naquele dia até à tarde; e sacrificaram holocaustos e pacíficos diante do SENHOR.
Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came to Bethel, and wept, and sat there before YHWH, and fasted that day until evening; and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before YHWH.
27 E os filhos de Israel perguntaram ao SENHOR, (porque a arca do pacto de Deus estava ali naqueles dias,
The children of Israel asked of YHWH (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,
28 E Fineias, filho de Eleazar, filho de Arão, se apresentava diante dela naqueles dias, ) e disseram: Voltarei a sair em batalha contra os filhos de Benjamim meu irmão, ou ficarei quieto? E o SENHOR disse: Subi, que amanhã eu o entregarei em tua mão.
and Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days), "Shall I yet again go out to battle against the people of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease?" YHWH said, "Go up; for tomorrow I will deliver him into your hand."
29 E pôs Israel emboscadas ao redor de Gibeá.
Israel set ambushes all around Gibeah.
30 Subindo então os filhos de Israel contra os filhos de Benjamim o terceiro dia, ordenaram a batalha diante de Gibeá, como as outras vezes.
The children of Israel went up against the people of Benjamin on the third day, and set themselves in array against Gibeah, as at other times.
31 E saindo os filhos de Benjamim contra o povo, afastados que foram da cidade, começaram a ferir alguns do povo, matando como das outras vezes pelos caminhos, um dos quais sobe a Betel, e o outro a Gibeá no acampamento: e mataram uns trinta homens de Israel.
The people of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to strike and kill some of the people, as at other times, on the highways, of which one goes up to Bethel, and the other to Gibeah, in the field, about thirty men of Israel.
32 E os filhos de Benjamim diziam: Derrotados são diante de nós, como antes. Mas os filhos de Israel diziam: Fugiremos, e os afastaremos da cidade até os caminhos.
The people of Benjamin said, "They are defeated before us, as previously." But the children of Israel said, "Let us flee, and draw them away from the city to the highways."
33 Então, levantando-se todos os de Israel de seu lugar, puseram-se em ordem em Baal-Tamar: e também as emboscadas de Israel saíram de seu lugar, do prado de Gibeá.
All the men of Israel rose up out of their place, and set themselves in array at Baal Tamar. And the men of Israel in ambush rushed out of their place west of Geba.
34 E vieram contra Gibeá dez mil homens escolhidos de todo Israel, e a batalha começou a agravar-se: mas eles não sabiam que o mal se aproximava sobre eles.
There came over against Gibeah ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and the battle was severe; but they didn't know that disaster was close upon them.
35 E feriu o SENHOR a Benjamim diante de Israel; e mataram os filhos de Israel aquele dia vinte e cinco mil e cem homens de Benjamim, todos os quais tiravam espada.
YHWH struck Benjamin before Israel; and the children of Israel destroyed of Benjamin that day twenty-five thousand one hundred men: all armed with swords.
36 E viram os filhos de Benjamim que eram mortos; pois os filhos de Israel haviam dado lugar a Benjamim, porque estavam confiantes nas emboscadas que haviam posto detrás de Gibeá.
So the people of Benjamin saw that they were defeated; for the men of Israel gave ground to Benjamin, because they trusted the ambushers whom they had set against Gibeah.
37 Então as emboscadas atacaram prontamente Gibeá, e se estenderam, e passaram à espada toda a cidade.
The ambushers hurried, and rushed on Gibeah; and the ambushers drew themselves along, and struck all the city with the edge of the sword.
38 Já os israelitas estavam combinados com as emboscadas, que fizessem muito fogo, para que subisse grande fumaça da cidade.
Now the appointed sign between the men of Israel and the ambushers was that they should make a great cloud of smoke rise up out of the city.
39 Logo, pois, que os de Israel se viraram na batalha, os de Benjamim começaram a derrubar feridos de Israel uns trinta homens, e já diziam: Certamente eles caíram diante de nós, como na primeira batalha.
The men of Israel turned in the battle, and Benjamin began to strike and kill of the men of Israel about thirty persons; for they said, "Surely they are defeated before us, as in the first battle."
40 Mas quando a chama começou a subir da cidade, uma coluna de fumaça, Benjamim virou a olhar atrás; e eis que o fogo da cidade subia ao céu.
But when the cloud began to arise up out of the city in a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them; and look, the whole city went up in smoke into the sky.
41 Então deram meia-volta os homens de Israel, e os de Benjamim se encheram de temor: porque viram que o mal havia vindo sobre eles.
The men of Israel turned, and the men of Benjamin were terrified; for they saw that disaster had come on them.
42 Voltaram-se, pois, de costas diante de Israel até o caminho do deserto; mas o esquadrão os alcançou, e os saídos da cidade os matavam, depois de virem ao meio deles.
Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel to the way of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them; and those who came out of the cities destroyed them in its midst.
43 Assim cercaram aos de Benjamim, e os perseguiram e pisaram, desde Menuá até em frente de Gibeá até o oriente.
They surrounded Benjamin, and they pursued them from Nohah and overtook them near Gibeah toward the east.
44 E caíram de Benjamim dezoito mil homens, todos eles homens de guerra.
There fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men; all these were men of valor.
45 Voltando-se logo, fugiram até o deserto, à penha de Rimom, e deles exterminaram cinco mil homens nos caminhos: foram ainda perseguindo-os até Gidom, e mataram deles dois mil homens.
They turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon: and they killed on the highways five thousand men, and followed hard after them to Gidom, and struck down two thousand men.
46 Assim todos os que de Benjamim morreram aquele dia, foram vinte e cinco mil homens que tiravam espada, todos eles homens de guerra.
So that all who fell that day of Benjamin were twenty-five thousand swordsmen; all these were valiant fighters.
47 Porém se voltaram e fugiram ao deserto à penha de Rimom seiscentos homens, os quais estiveram na penha de Rimom quatro meses:
But six hundred men turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon, and stayed in the rock of Rimmon four months.
48 E os homens de Israel voltaram aos filhos de Benjamim, e passaram-nos à espada, a homens e animais na cidade, e tudo o que foi achado: também puseram fogo a todas as cidades que achavam.
The men of Israel turned again on the people of Benjamin, and struck them with the edge of the sword, both the entire city, and the livestock, and all that they found: moreover all the cities which they found they set on fire.
