Juízes 20
1 Então todas as crianças de Israel saíram, e a congregação foi reunida como um só homem, desde Dan até Berseba, com a terra de Gilead, até Yahweh em Mizpah.
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 the LORD at Mizpah.
2 Os chefes de todo o povo, mesmo de todas as tribos de Israel, se apresentaram na assembléia do povo de Deus, quatrocentos mil homens de pé que desembainharam a 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 (Agora os filhos de Benjamim ouviram que os filhos de Israel tinham subido a Mizpá). Os filhos de Israel disseram: “Diga-nos, como aconteceu 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 O Levite, o marido da mulher que foi assassinada, respondeu: “Entrei em Gibeah que pertence a Benjamin, eu e minha concubina, para passar 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 Os homens de Gibeah se levantaram contra mim, e cercaram a casa à noite. Eles tinham a intenção de me matar e violaram minha concubina, e ela está 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 Peguei minha concubina e a cortei em pedaços, e a enviei por todo o país da herança de Israel; pois cometeram lascívia e loucura 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 vocês, filhos de Israel, todos vocês, dêem aqui seus conselhos e conselhos”.
Look, you children of Israel, all of you, give your advice and counsel here."
8 Todas as pessoas se levantaram como um só homem, dizendo: “Nenhum de nós irá à sua tenda, nem nenhum de nós irá 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 Mas agora isto é o que faremos com Gibeah: enfrentaremos por sorte;
But now this is the thing which we will do to Gibeah: we will go up against it by lot;
10 e levaremos dez homens de cem em todas as tribos de Israel, e cem de mil, e mil de dez mil para conseguir comida para o povo, para que possam fazer, quando vierem a Gibeah de Benjamim, de acordo com toda a loucura que os homens de Gibeah fizeram 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 Assim, todos os homens de Israel estavam reunidos contra a cidade, unidos como um só homem.
So all the men of Israel gathered against the city, united as one man.
12 As tribos de Israel enviaram homens por toda a tribo de Benjamin, dizendo: “Que maldade é essa que tem acontecido entre vocês?
The tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, "What wickedness is this that has happened among you?
13 Portanto, agora entreguem os homens, os malvados que estão em Gibeá, para que os matemos e afastemos de Israel o mal”. Mas Benjamin não quis 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 Os filhos de Benjamin se reuniram fora das cidades para Gibeah, para sair para 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 Os filhos de Benjamim foram contados naquele dia dentre as cidades vinte e seis mil homens que desembainharam a espada, além dos habitantes de Gibeá, que foram contados 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 Entre todos esses soldados, havia setecentos homens escolhidos que eram canhotos. Cada um deles podia atirar uma pedra a um cabelo e não falhar.
Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men left-handed; everyone could sling stones at a hair and not miss.
17 Os homens de Israel, além de Benjamim, foram contados quatrocentos mil homens que desembainharam a espada. Todos estes eram 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 Os filhos de Israel se levantaram, subiram a Betel e pediram conselho a Deus. Perguntaram: “Quem subirá por nós primeiro para lutar contra as crianças de Benjamin?”. Yahweh disse: “Judah 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?" The LORD said, "Judah will go up first."
19 As crianças de Israel se levantaram pela manhã e acamparam contra Gibeah.

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 As crianças de Israel subiram e choraram diante de Javé até a noite; e perguntaram a Javé, dizendo: “Devo eu me aproximar novamente para lutar contra as crianças de Benjamim, meu irmão? Yahweh disse: “Vá contra ele”.
The children of Israel went up and wept before the LORD until evening; and they asked of the LORD, saying, "Shall I again draw near to battle against the people of Benjamin my brother?" The LORD said, "Go up against him."
24 As crianças de Israel se aproximaram contra as crianças de Benjamin no segundo dia.
The children of Israel came near against the people of Benjamin the second day.
25 Benjamin saiu contra eles de Gibeah no segundo dia, e destruiu até o solo das crianças de Israel novamente dezoito mil homens. Todos eles desembainharam a 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 todas as crianças de Israel e todo o povo subiram, e vieram a Betel, e choraram, e se sentaram ali diante de Javé, e jejuaram naquele dia até a noite; depois ofereceram holocaustos e ofertas de paz diante de Javé.
Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came to Bethel, and wept, and sat there before the LORD, and fasted that day until evening; and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
27 Os filhos de Israel perguntaram a Javé (pois a arca da aliança de Deus estava lá naqueles dias,
The children of Israel asked of the LORD (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,
28 e Finéias, o filho de Eleazar, filho de Aarão, estava diante dela naqueles dias), dizendo: “Devo sair novamente para lutar contra os filhos de Benjamim, meu irmão, ou devo parar? Yahweh disse: “Suba; pois amanhã eu o entregarei em suas mãos”.
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?" The LORD said, "Go up; for tomorrow I will deliver him into your hand."
29 Israel armou emboscadas ao redor de Gibeah.
Israel set ambushes all around Gibeah.
30 As crianças de Israel enfrentaram as crianças de Benjamin no terceiro dia, e se colocaram em uma ordem contra Gibeah, como em outros momentos.
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 As crianças de Benjamim saíram contra o povo, e foram afastadas da cidade; e começaram a atacar e matar o povo como em outros momentos, nas estradas, das quais uma sobe para Betel e a outra para Gibeá, no campo, cerca de 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 As crianças de Benjamin disseram: “Eles são abatidos diante de nós, como no início”. Mas as crianças de Israel disseram: “Vamos fugir, e afastá-los da cidade para as estradas”.
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 Todos os homens de Israel se levantaram de seu lugar e se colocaram em ordem em Baal Tamar. Então os emboscadores de Israel fugiram de seu lugar, até mesmo de Maareh Geba.
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 Dez mil homens escolhidos de todo Israel vieram contra Gibeah, e a batalha foi severa; mas eles não sabiam que o desastre estava próximo a 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 Yahweh atingiu Benjamin antes de Israel; e as crianças de Israel destruíram de Benjamin naquele dia vinte e cinco mil e cem homens. Todos eles desembainharam a espada.
The LORD 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 Então os filhos de Benjamim viram que foram atingidos, pois os homens de Israel cederam a Benjamim porque confiaram nos emboscadores que haviam colocado contra Gibeah.
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 Os emboscadores apressaram-se e correram para Gibeá; depois os emboscadores se espalharam e atingiram toda a cidade com o fio da espada.
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 Agora, o sinal apontado entre os homens de Israel e os emboscadores era que eles deveriam fazer uma grande nuvem de fumaça se erguer 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 Os homens de Israel voltaram-se para a batalha, e Benjamin começou a atacar e matar os homens de Israel cerca de trinta pessoas; pois eles disseram: “Certamente eles foram atacados 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 nuvem começou a subir da cidade em um pilar de fumaça, os benjamitas olharam atrás deles; e eis que toda a cidade subiu em fumaça para o 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 Os homens de Israel voltaram-se, e os homens de Benjamim ficaram consternados; pois viram que o desastre tinha 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 Por isso viraram as costas diante dos homens de Israel para o caminho do deserto, mas a batalha os seguiu com força; e aqueles que saíram das cidades os destruíram no meio do deserto.
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 Eles cercaram os benjamitas, perseguiram-nos e os pisaram em seu lugar de descanso, até perto de Gibeá, em direção ao nascer do sol.
They surrounded Benjamin, and they pursued them from Nohah and overtook them near Gibeah toward the east.
44 Dezoito mil homens de Benjamin caíram; todos eles eram homens de valor.
There fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men; all these were men of valor.
45 Eles se voltaram e fugiram em direção ao deserto, para a rocha de Rimmon. Eles colheram cinco mil homens deles nas estradas, e os seguiram com força até Gidom, e atingiram dois mil homens deles.
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 Para que todos os que caíram naquele dia de Benjamin fossem vinte e cinco mil homens que desembainharam a espada. Todos estes homens eram homens de valor.
So that all who fell that day of Benjamin were twenty-five thousand swordsmen; all these were valiant fighters.
47 Mas seiscentos homens se voltaram e fugiram em direção ao deserto para a rocha de Rimmon, e permaneceram na rocha de Rimmon 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 Os homens de Israel voltaram-se novamente contra as crianças de Benjamin, e atingiram-nas com o fio da espada - incluindo a cidade inteira, o gado e tudo o que encontraram. Além disso, eles incendiaram todas as cidades que encontraram.
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.
