Juízes 2
1 O anjo de Yahweh veio de Gilgal para Bochim. Ele disse: “Eu te tirei do Egito, e te trouxe para a terra que jurei dar a teus pais”. Eu disse: “Eu nunca quebrarei meu pacto com vocês”.
And the Angel of Jehovah came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you to the land which I swore unto your fathers; and I said, I will never break my covenant with you; and as for you,
2 Você não fará nenhum pacto com os habitantes desta terra”. Quebrareis os altares deles”. Mas vocês não escutaram minha voz. Por que você fez isso?
ye shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; ye shall throw down their altars: but ye have not hearkened unto my voice. Why have ye done this?
3 Por isso eu também disse: 'Não os expulsarei de diante de vós; mas eles estarão ao vosso lado, e os deuses deles serão um laço para vós'”.
Wherefore I also said, I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be [scourges] in your sides, and their gods shall be a snare unto you.
4 Quando o anjo de Javé dirigiu estas palavras a todas as crianças de Israel, o povo levantou sua voz e chorou.
And it came to pass, when the Angel of Jehovah spoke these words to all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice and wept.
5 Chamaram o nome daquele lugar de Bochim, e ali sacrificaram a Iavé.
And they called the name of that place Bochim; and they sacrificed there to Jehovah.
6 Now quando Josué havia mandado o povo embora, os filhos de Israel foram cada um para sua herança para possuir a terra.
And Joshua dismissed the people, and the children of Israel went every man to his inheritance to possess the land.
7 O povo serviu a Javé todos os dias de Josué, e todos os dias dos anciãos que sobreviveram a Josué, que tinha visto toda a grande obra de Javé que ele tinha trabalhado para Israel.
And the people served Jehovah all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders whose days were prolonged after Joshua, who had seen all the great works of Jehovah, which he had done for Israel.
8 Josué, filho de Nun, o servo de Iavé, morreu, tendo cem e dez anos de idade.
And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Jehovah, died, a hundred and ten years old.
9 They enterrou-o na fronteira de sua herança em Timnath Heres, na região montanhosa de Efraim, no norte da montanha de Gaash.
And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath-Heres, in mount Ephraim, on the north side of the mountain of Gaash.
10 Depois de toda aquela geração ter sido reunida a seus pais, outra geração surgiu depois deles que não conheciam Yahweh, nem o trabalho que ele havia feito por Israel.
And also all that generation were gathered to their fathers; and there arose another generation after them, which knew not Jehovah, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel.
11 Os filhos de Israel fizeram o que era mau aos olhos de Iavé, e serviram aos Baal.
And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of Jehovah, and served the Baals.
12 Eles abandonaram Iavé, o Deus de seus pais, que os tirou da terra do Egito, e seguiram outros deuses, dos deuses dos povos que os rodeavam, e se curvaram diante deles; e provocaram Iavé à raiva.
And they forsook Jehovah the God of their fathers, who had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods of the gods of the peoples that were round about them, and bowed themselves to them, and provoked Jehovah to anger.
13 Eles abandonaram Yahweh, e serviram Baal e os Ashtaroth.
And they forsook Jehovah, and served Baal and the Ashtoreths.
14 A raiva de Iavé queimou contra Israel, e ele os entregou nas mãos de saqueadores que os saquearam. Ele os vendeu nas mãos de seus inimigos ao redor, para que eles não pudessem mais ficar de pé diante de seus inimigos.
And the anger of Jehovah was hot against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and he sold them into the hands of their enemies round about; and they could not any longer stand before their enemies.
15 Onde quer que saíssem, a mão de Javé estava contra eles pelo mal, como Javé havia falado, e como Javé havia jurado a eles; e eles estavam muito angustiados.
Whithersoever they went out the hand of Jehovah was against them for evil, as Jehovah had said, and as Jehovah had sworn unto them; and they were greatly distressed.
16 Yahweh levantou juízes, que os salvaram da mão daqueles que os saquearam.
And Jehovah raised up judges, and they saved them out of the hand of those that spoiled them.
17 No entanto, eles não ouviram seus juízes; pois se prostituíram com outros deuses e se curvaram diante deles. Eles rapidamente se afastaram da maneira como seus pais caminhavam, obedecendo aos mandamentos de Javé. Eles não o fizeram.
But they did not even hearken to their judges, for they went a whoring after other gods, and bowed themselves to them; they turned quickly out of the way that their fathers had walked in, obeying the commandments of Jehovah; they did not so.
18 Quando Javé levantou juízes para eles, então Javé estava com o juiz, e os salvou da mão de seus inimigos todos os dias do juiz; pois isso afligia Javé por causa de seus gemidos por causa daqueles que os oprimiam e os perturbavam.
And when Jehovah raised them up judges, then Jehovah was with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for it repented Jehovah because of their groanings by reason of them that oppressed them and crushed them.
19 Mas quando o juiz estava morto, eles voltaram atrás, e trataram de forma mais corrupta que seus pais, seguindo outros deuses para servi-los e curvar-se diante deles. Eles não cessaram o que estavam fazendo, nem desistiram de seus modos teimosos.
And it came to pass when the judge died, that they turned back and corrupted themselves more than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down to them: they ceased not from their own doings, nor from their stubborn way.
20 A raiva de Javé ardia contra Israel; e ele disse: “Porque esta nação transgrediu meu pacto que eu ordenei a seus pais, e não ouviu minha voz,
And the anger of Jehovah was hot against Israel; and he said, Because this nation hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and hath not hearkened unto my voice,
21 eu também não expulsarei mais nenhuma das nações que Josué deixou quando morreu antes deles;
I also will not henceforth dispossess from before them any of the nations that Joshua left when he died;
22 que por eles eu possa testar Israel, para ver se eles manterão o caminho de Javé, como seus pais o mantiveram, ou não”.
that through them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of Jehovah to walk therein, as their fathers did keep [it], or not.
23 Portanto, Javé deixou essas nações, sem expulsá-las apressadamente. Ele não os entregou nas mãos de Josué.
Therefore Jehovah left those nations, without dispossessing them hastily, neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua.
