< Josué 10 >

1 Agora quando Adoni-Zedeque, rei de Jerusalém, ouviu como Josué havia tomado Ai, e o havia destruído completamente; como havia feito com Jericó e seu rei, assim fez com Ai e seu rei; e como os habitantes de Gibeon haviam feito as pazes com Israel, e estavam entre eles,
And it came to pass when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had taken Ai and had utterly destroyed it, that he had done to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king, and that the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them,
2 eles tinham muito medo, porque Gibeon era uma grande cidade, como uma das cidades reais, e porque era maior que Ai, e todos os seus homens eram poderosos.
that they feared greatly; for Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
3 Portanto Adoni-Zedek, rei de Jerusalém, enviou a Hoham rei de Hebron, Piram rei de Jarmuth, Japhia rei de Laquis, e Debir rei de Eglon, dizendo:
And Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, and to Piream king of Jarmuth, and to Japhia king of Lachish, and to Debir king of Eglon, saying,
4 “Venha até mim e me ajude”. Vamos atacar Gibeon; pois eles fizeram as pazes com Josué e com os filhos de Israel”.
Come up to me, and help me, that we may smite Gibeon; for it has made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.
5 Therefore os cinco reis dos amorreus, o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebron, o rei de Jarmute, o rei de Laquis e o rei de Eglon, se reuniram e subiram, eles e todos os seus exércitos, e acamparam contra Gibeon, e fizeram guerra contra ele.
And the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, [and] the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their armies, and they encamped before Gibeon, and made war against it.
6 Os homens de Gibeon enviaram a Josué no acampamento em Gilgal, dizendo: “Não abandone seus servos! Venha até nós rapidamente e nos salve! Ajude-nos; pois todos os reis dos amorreus que habitam na região montanhosa se reuniram contra nós”.
And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua, to the camp at Gilgal, saying, Withdraw not thy hand from thy servants: come up to us quickly, and save us and help us; for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill-country are gathered against us.
7 Então Josué subiu de Gilgal, ele e todo o exército com ele, incluindo todos os poderosos homens de valor.
So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him, even all the valiant men.
8 Yahweh disse a Joshua: “Não tenha medo deles, pois eu os entreguei em suas mãos”. Nem um homem deles estará diante de você”.
And Jehovah said to Joshua, Fear them not; for into thy hand have I given them: not a man of them shall stand before thee.
9 Joshua, portanto, chegou a eles de repente. Ele marchou de Gilgal a noite toda.
And Joshua came upon them suddenly; he went up from Gilgal all night.
10 Yahweh confundiu-os diante de Israel. Ele os matou com uma grande matança em Gibeon, e os perseguiu pelo caminho da ascensão de Beth Horon, e os atingiu até Azekah e até Makkedah.
And Jehovah discomfited them before Israel, and smote them [with] a great slaughter at Gibeon; and he chased them on the way of the ascent of Beth-horon, and smote them up to Azekah and Makkedah.
11 Quando fugiram de antes de Israel, enquanto estavam na descida de Beth Horon, Yahweh atirou grandes pedras do céu sobre eles para Azekah, e eles morreram. Havia mais pessoas que morreram das pedras de granizo do que aquelas que os filhos de Israel mataram com a espada.
And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, — they were at the descent of Beth-horon, — that Jehovah cast down great stones from heaven upon them up to Azekah, and they died. They were more who died with the hailstones than they whom the children of Israel had slain with the sword.
12 Então Josué falou a Javé no dia em que Javé entregou os amorreus diante dos filhos de Israel. Ele disse aos olhos de Israel: “Sol, fique parado em Gibeon! Tu, lua, pára no vale de Aijalon”!
Then spoke Joshua to Jehovah in the day when Jehovah gave up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand still upon Gibeon; And thou, moon, in the valley of Ajalon!
13 O sol ficou parado, e a lua permaneceu, até que a nação se vingasse de seus inimigos. Isto não está escrito no livro de Jashar? O sol permaneceu no meio do céu, e não se apressou a se pôr por um dia inteiro.
And the sun stood still, and the moon remained where it was, until the nation had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? And the sun remained standing in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a full day.
14 Não havia um dia assim antes ou depois, que Iavé ouvisse a voz de um homem; pois Iavé lutou por Israel.
And there was no day like that before it or after it, that Jehovah hearkened to the voice of a man; for Jehovah fought for Israel.
15 Josué voltou, e todo Israel com ele, ao acampamento em Gilgal.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp, to Gilgal.
16 Estes cinco reis fugiram, e se esconderam na caverna em Makkedah.
And these five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
17 Foi dito a Josué, dizendo: “Os cinco reis foram encontrados, escondidos na caverna em Makkedah”.
And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings have been found, hid in the cave at Makkedah.
18 Joshua disse: “Enrole grandes pedras para cobrir a entrada da caverna, e coloque homens ao seu lado para protegê-los;
And Joshua said, Roll great stones before the mouth of the cave, and set men before it to keep them.
19 mas não fique lá. Persiga seus inimigos e ataque-os pela retaguarda”. Não permita que entrem em suas cidades; pois Yahweh seu Deus os entregou em suas mãos”.
And ye, stay not, pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of them; suffer them not to enter into their cities; for Jehovah your God has given them into your hand.
20 Quando Josué e as crianças de Israel terminaram de matá-los com um grande massacre até serem consumidos, e o resto que restava deles tinha entrado nas cidades fortificadas,
And it came to pass when Joshua and the children of Israel had ended smiting them with a very great slaughter, until they were consumed, that the remnant which remained of them entered into fortified cities;
21 todo o povo voltou ao acampamento para Josué em Makkedah em paz. Nenhum mexeu sua língua contra nenhuma das crianças de Israel.
and all the people returned to the camp to Joshua, at Makkedah, in peace; none moved his tongue against the children of Israel.
22 Então Josué disse: “Abra a entrada da caverna e traga aqueles cinco reis para fora da caverna até mim”.
And Joshua said, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth to me those five kings out of the cave.
23 Eles o fizeram e lhe trouxeram aqueles cinco reis da caverna: o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebron, o rei de Jarmuth, o rei de Laquis e o rei de Eglon.
And they did so, and brought forth to him those five kings out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.
24 Quando eles trouxeram aqueles reis para Josué, Josué chamou todos os homens de Israel e disse aos chefes dos homens de guerra que foram com ele: “Cheguem perto. Ponham seus pés no pescoço desses reis”. Eles se aproximaram e colocaram seus pés no pescoço.
And it came to pass when they had brought forth those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called to all the men of Israel, and said to the captains of the men of war who went with him, Come forward, put your feet on the necks of these kings. And they came forward and put their feet on their necks.
25 Joshua disse-lhes: “Não tenham medo, nem se desesperem. Sejam fortes e corajosos, pois Yahweh fará isso com todos os seus inimigos contra os quais vocês lutam”.
And Joshua said to them, Fear not, neither be dismayed; be strong and courageous, for thus will Jehovah do to all your enemies against whom ye fight.
26 Depois disso, Joshua os atingiu, os matou e os enforcou em cinco árvores. Eles foram pendurados nas árvores até a noite.
And afterwards Joshua smote them, and put them to death, and hanged them on five trees; and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.
27 No momento do pôr do sol, Josué ordenou, e eles os tiraram das árvores, e os jogaram na caverna em que se haviam escondido, e colocaram grandes pedras na boca da caverna, que permanecem até hoje.
And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave where they had been hid, and laid great stones before the cave's mouth, [which remain] to this very day.
28 Josué tomou Makkedah naquele dia, e o golpeou com o fio da espada, com seu rei. Ele a destruiu completamente e a todas as almas que estavam nela. Ele não deixou ninguém restante. Ele fez com o rei de Makkedah como havia feito com o rei de Jericó.
And Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof, him and all the souls that were therein he utterly destroyed; he let none remain; and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
29 Josué passou de Makkedah, e todo Israel com ele, para Libnah, e lutou contra Libnah.
And Joshua passed, and all Israel with him, from Makkedah to Libnah, and fought against Libnah.
30 Yahweh também o entregou, com seu rei, nas mãos de Israel. Ele a golpeou com o fio da espada, e todas as almas que estavam nela. Ele não deixou ninguém que nela permanecesse. Ele fez com seu rei, como havia feito com o rei de Jericó.
And Jehovah gave it also and the king thereof into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein; he let none remain in it: and he did to the king thereof as he had done to the king of Jericho.
31 Josué passou de Libnah, e todo Israel com ele, para Laquis, e se acampou contra ele, e lutou contra ele.
And Joshua passed, and all Israel with him, from Libnah to Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it.
32 Yahweh entregou Laquis nas mãos de Israel. Ele o tomou no segundo dia, e o atingiu com o fio da espada, com todas as almas que estavam nele, de acordo com tudo o que ele havia feito a Libnah.
And Jehovah gave Lachish into the hand of Israel; and they took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
33 Então Horam, rei de Gezer, subiu para ajudar Laquis; e Josué bateu nele e em seu povo, até que ele não lhe deixou mais ninguém.
Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining.
34 Josué passou de Laquis, e todo Israel com ele, para Eglon; e eles acamparam contra ele e lutaram contra ele.
And Joshua, and all Israel with him, passed from Lachish to Eglon; and they encamped against it, and fought against it.
35 Eles a pegaram naquele dia, e a golpearam com o fio da espada. Ele destruiu completamente todas as almas que estavam nele naquele dia, de acordo com tudo o que ele havia feito a Laquis.
And they took it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword; and all the souls that were therein he utterly destroyed on that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.
36 Josué subiu de Eglon, e todo Israel com ele, para Hebron; e eles lutaram contra isso.
And Joshua went up, and all Israel with him, from Eglon to Hebron; and they fought against it.
37 Eles a pegaram, e a golpearam com o fio da espada, com seu rei e todas as suas cidades, e todas as almas que estavam dentro dela. Ele não deixou ninguém restante, de acordo com tudo o que havia feito a Eglon; mas ele a destruiu totalmente, e todas as almas que estavam nela.
And they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the souls that were therein: he let none remain, according to all that he had done to Eglon; and he utterly destroyed it, and all the souls that were therein.
38 Josué voltou, e todo Israel com ele, a Debir, e lutou contra isso.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it.
39 Ele o levou, com seu rei e todas as suas cidades. Eles os atingiram com o fio da espada, e destruíram completamente todas as almas que estavam nela. Ele não deixou ninguém restante. Como havia feito com Hebron, assim fez com Debir, e com seu rei; como havia feito também com Libnah, e com seu rei.
And he took it, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that were therein; he let none remain: as he had done to Hebron, and as he had done to Libnah, and to the king thereof, so he did to Debir and to the king thereof.
40 Então Josué atingiu toda a terra, a região montanhosa, o Sul, as terras baixas, as encostas e todos os seus reis. Ele não deixou ninguém restante, mas destruiu completamente tudo o que respirava, como ordenou Yahweh, o Deus de Israel.
And Joshua smote the whole country, the mountain, and the south, and the lowland, and the hill-slopes, and all their kings: he let none remain, but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as Jehovah the God of Israel had commanded.
41 Josué os atingiu desde Kadesh Barnea até Gaza, e todo o país de Goshen, até Gibeon.
And Joshua smote them from Kadesh-barnea even to Gazah, and all the country of Goshen, even to Gibeon;
42 Josué tomou todos esses reis e suas terras de uma só vez porque Javé, o Deus de Israel, lutou por Israel.
and all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time; for Jehovah the God of Israel fought for Israel.
43 Josué voltou, e todo Israel com ele, ao acampamento em Gilgal.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp, to Gilgal.
