1 Samuel 13
1 Saul tinha trinta anos quando se tornou rei, e reinou sobre Israel durante quarenta e dois anos.
Saul was ruling for less than a year, when he ruled during year two over Israel,
2 Saul escolheu para si três mil homens de Israel, dos quais dois mil estavam com Saul em Michmash e no Monte Betel, e mil estavam com Jonathan em Gibeah de Benjamin. Ele enviou o resto do povo para suas próprias tendas.
that Saul chose for himself three thousand men of Israel, of which two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in the hill country of Bethel, and one thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin. And the rest of the people he sent away, each to his own home.
3 Jonathan atacou a guarnição dos filisteus que estava em Geba, e os filisteus ouviram falar disso. Saul tocou a trombeta por toda a terra, dizendo: “Que os hebreus ouçam”!
Now Jonathan struck the garrison of the Philistines that was at Gibeah, and the Philistines heard of it. Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, "Let the Hebrews hear."
4 Todo Israel ouviu que Saul havia golpeado a guarnição dos filisteus, e também que Israel era considerado uma abominação para os filisteus. O povo estava reunido depois de Saul em Gilgal.
All Israel heard that Saul had struck the garrison of the Philistines, and also that Israel had become repulsive to the Philistines. So the people were called out to join Saul at Gilgal.
5 Os filisteus se reuniram para lutar com Israel: trinta mil carros, seis mil cavaleiros, e o povo como a areia que está à beira-mar em multidão. Eles subiram e acamparam em Michmash, a leste da avenida Beth.
The Philistines assembled themselves together to fight with Israel, and brought up against Israel three thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the seashore in multitude: and they came up, and camped in Michmash, eastward of Beth Aven.
6 Quando os homens de Israel viram que estavam em apuros (pois o povo estava angustiado), então o povo se escondeu em cavernas, em matas, em rochas, em túmulos e em cavernas.
When the men of Israel saw that they were in trouble (for the people were in a difficult situation), then the people hid themselves in caves and thickets, among the rocks, and in pits and cisterns.
7 Agora alguns dos hebreus haviam atravessado o Jordão para a terra de Gad e Gilead; mas quanto a Saul, ele ainda estava em Gilgal, e todo o povo o seguia tremendo.
Now some of the Hebrews had gone over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead; but as for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
8 Ele permaneceu sete dias, de acordo com o tempo estabelecido por Samuel; mas Samuel não veio a Gilgal, e o povo estava se espalhando dele.
And he stayed seven days, according to the time that Samuel had said. But Samuel did not come to Gilgal, and the people began to abandon him.
9 Saul disse: “Traga a oferta queimada para mim aqui, e as ofertas de paz”. Ele ofereceu o holocausto.
Saul said, "Bring here the burnt offering to me, and the peace offerings." He offered the burnt offering.
10 Aconteceu que, assim que terminou de oferecer o holocausto, eis que Samuel chegou; e Saul saiu ao seu encontro, para cumprimentá-lo.
It came to pass that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, look, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might greet him.
11 Samuel disse: “O que você fez?”. Saul disse: “Porque eu vi que o povo estava disperso de mim, e que você não veio nos dias designados, e que os filisteus se reuniram em Michmash,
Samuel said, "What have you done?" Saul said, "Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines assembled themselves together at Michmash;
12 portanto eu disse: 'Agora os filisteus descerão sobre mim para Gilgal, e eu não tenho tratado o favor de Yahweh'. Eu me forcei, portanto, e ofereci o holocausto”.
therefore I said, 'Now the Philistines will come down on me to Gilgal, and I haven't entreated the favor of the LORD.' I forced myself therefore, and offered the burnt offering."
13 Samuel disse a Saul: “Você fez loucuras”. Não guardaste o mandamento de Javé teu Deus, que ele te ordenou; por agora Javé teria estabelecido teu reino sobre Israel para sempre”.
Samuel said to Saul, "You have done foolishly. You have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which he commanded you; for now the LORD would have established your kingdom on Israel forever.
14 Mas agora seu reino não vai continuar. Javé buscou para si mesmo um homem, depois de seu próprio coração, e Javé o designou para ser príncipe sobre seu povo, porque não guardastes o que Javé vos ordenou”.
But now your kingdom shall not continue. The LORD has sought for himself a man after his own heart, and the LORD has appointed him to be prince over his people, because you have not kept that which the LORD commanded you."
15 Samuel surgiu, e foi de Gilgal para Gibeah de Benjamin. Saul contou as pessoas que estavam presentes com ele, cerca de seiscentos homens.
And Samuel arose and departed from Gilgal, and the rest of the people went up after Saul to meet him after the men of war, when they had come up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people who were present with him, about six hundred men.
16 Saul, e Jonathan seu filho, e as pessoas que estavam presentes com eles, ficaram em Geba de Benjamin; mas os filisteus acamparam em Michmash.
Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people who were present with them, stayed in Geba of Benjamin: but the Philistines camped in Michmash.
17 Os invasores saíram do acampamento dos filisteus em três empresas: uma empresa se voltou para o caminho que leva a Ophrah, para a terra de Shual;
The spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned to the way that leads to Ophrah, to the land of Shual;
18 outra empresa virou o caminho para Beth Horon; e outra empresa virou o caminho da fronteira que olha para baixo no vale de Zeboim em direção ao deserto.
and another company turned the way to Beth Horon; and another company turned toward the border that overlooks the valley of Zeboim.
19 Agora não havia ferreiro em toda a terra de Israel, pois os filisteus diziam: “Para que os hebreus não se façam espadas ou lanças”;
Now there was no blacksmith found throughout all the land of Israel; for the Philistines had said, "Otherwise the Hebrews will make swords or spears."
20 mas todos os israelitas desceram aos filisteus, cada um para afiar seu próprio arado, mattock, machado e foice.
But all Israel would go down to the Philistines, each to sharpen his plowshare, mattock, axe, and sickle;
21 O preço era um pagamento cada um para afiar mattocks, charruas, forquilhas, machados e goadas.
and the charge was one payim for the plowshares and for the mattocks, and three shekels for picks and axes and to set the goads.
22 Assim aconteceu no dia da batalha que nem espada nem lança foram encontradas na mão de nenhuma das pessoas que estavam com Saul e Jonathan; mas Saul e Jonathan seu filho as tinha.
So on the day of the battle of Michmash there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan; but Saul and his son Jonathan had them.
23 A guarnição dos filisteus saiu para o desfiladeiro de Michmash.
The garrison of the Philistines went out to the pass of Michmash.
