2 Samuel 5

1 Então todas as tribos de Israel vieram a David em Hebron e falaram, dizendo: “Eis que somos teus ossos e tua carne”.

Then all the tribes of Israel came to David in Hebron, saying: Behold we are thy bone and thy flesh.

2 Em tempos passados, quando Saul era rei sobre nós, foi você quem conduziu Israel para fora e para dentro. Javé lhe disse: “Você será pastor do meu povo Israel, e você será príncipe sobre Israel”.

Moreover yesterday also and the day before, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that did lead out and bring in Israel: and the Lord said to thee: Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel.

3 Então todos os anciãos de Israel vieram ao rei em Hebron, e o rei Davi fez um pacto com eles em Hebron antes de Yavé; e ungiram Davi rei sobre Israel.

The ancients also of Israel came to the king to Hebron, and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David to be king over Israel.

4 David tinha trinta anos de idade quando começou a reinar, e reinou quarenta anos.

David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.

5 Em Hebron reinou sobre Judá sete anos e seis meses, e em Jerusalém reinou trinta e três anos sobre todo Israel e Judá.

In Hebron he reigned over Juda seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned three and thirty years over all Israel and Juda.

6 O rei e seus homens foram a Jerusalém contra os jebuseus, os habitantes da terra, que falaram com Davi, dizendo: “Os cegos e os coxos te manterão fora daqui”, pensando: “Davi não pode entrar aqui”.

And the king and all the men that were with him went to Jerusalem to the Jebusites the inhabitants of the land: and they said to David: Thou shalt not come in hither unless thou take away the blind and the lame that say: David shall not come in hither.

7 Nevertheless David tomou o bastião de Sião. Esta é a cidade de Davi.

But David took the castle of Sion, the same is the city of David.

8 David disse naquele dia: “Quem quer que atinja os jebusitas, deixe-o subir ao curso de água e atinja aqueles cegos e coxos, que são odiados pela alma de David”. Portanto, eles dizem: “Os cegos e os coxos não podem entrar na casa”.

For David had offered that day a reward to whosoever should strike the Jebusites and get up to the gutters of the tops of the houses, and take away the blind and the lame that hated the soul of David: therefore it is said in the proverb: The blind and the lame shall not come into the temple.

9 David viveu na fortaleza, e a chamou de cidade de David. David construiu em torno de Millo e para dentro.

And David dwelt in the castle, and called it, The city of David: and built round about from Mello and inwards.

10 David cresceu cada vez mais, pois Yahweh, o Deus dos Exércitos, estava com ele.

And he went on prospering and growing up, and the Lord God of hosts was with him.

11 Hiram, rei de Tiro, enviou mensageiros a Davi, com cedros, carpinteiros e pedreiros; e eles construíram uma casa para Davi.

And Hiram the king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons for walls: and they built a house for David.

12 David percebeu que Javé o havia estabelecido rei sobre Israel, e que ele havia exaltado seu reino por causa de seu povo Israel.

And David knew that the Lord bad confirmed him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom over his people Israel.

13 David levou mais concubinas e esposas para fora de Jerusalém, depois de ter vindo de Hebron; e mais filhos e filhas nasceram para David.

And David took more concubines and wives of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron: and there were born to David other sons also and daughters:

14 Estes são os nomes daqueles que nasceram para ele em Jerusalém: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Salomão,

And these are the names of them, that were born to him in Jerusalem, Samua, and Sobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,

15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,

And Jebahar, and Elisua, and Nepheg,

16 Elishama, Eliada, e Eliphelet.

And Japhia, and Elisama, and Elioda, and Eliphaleth.

17 Quando os filisteus ouviram que tinham ungido Davi rei sobre Israel, todos os filisteus subiram em busca de Davi, mas Davi ouviu falar disso e desceu para a fortaleza.

And the Philistines heard that they had anointed David to be king over Israel: and they all came to seek David: and when David heard of it, he went down to a strong hold.

18 Agora os filisteus tinham vindo e se espalhado pelo vale de Rephaim.

And the Philistines coming spread themselves in the valley of Raphaim.

19 Davi perguntou a Javé, dizendo: “Devo eu ir contra os filisteus? Você vai entregá-los em minhas mãos?” Yahweh disse a David: “Suba; pois certamente entregarei os filisteus em suas mãos”.

And David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I go up to the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said to David: Go up, for I will surely deliver the Philistines into thy hand.

20 David veio a Baal Perazim, e David os atingiu lá. Então ele disse: “Yahweh quebrou meus inimigos diante de mim, como a brecha das águas”. Portanto, ele chamou o nome daquele lugar de Baal Perazim.

And David came to Baal Pharisim: and defeated them there, and he said: The Lord hath divided my enemies before me, as waters are divided. Therefore the name of the place was called Baal Pharisim.

21 Eles deixaram suas imagens lá, e David e seus homens os levaram embora.

And they left there their idols: which David and his men took away.

22 Os filisteus surgiram mais uma vez e se espalharam pelo vale do Rephaim.

And the Philistines came up again and spread themselves in the valley of Raphaim.

23 Quando David perguntou sobre Yahweh, ele disse: “Você não deve subir. Dêem a volta por trás deles e os ataquem na frente das amoras.

And David consulted the Lord: Shall I go up against the Philistines, and wilt thou deliver them into my hands? He answered: Go not up against them, but fetch a compass behind them, and thou shalt come upon them over against the pear trees.

24 Quando ouvir o som de marcha nas copas das amoras, então se agita; pois então Javé saiu diante de você para atacar o exército dos filisteus”.

And when thou shalt hear the sound of one going in the tops of the pear trees, then shalt thou join battle: for then will the Lord go out before thy face to strike the army of the Philistines.

25 David o fez, como lhe ordenou Yahweh, e atingiu os filisteus durante todo o caminho de Geba a Gezer.

And David did as the Lord had commanded him, and he smote the Philistines from Gabaa until thou come to Gezer.
