2 Samuel 21
1 E houve em dias de David uma fome de tres annos, de anno em anno; e David consultou ao Senhor, e o Senhor lhe disse: É por causa de Saul e da sua casa sanguinaria, porque matou os gibeonitas.
And there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David sought the face of the LORD. And the LORD said: 'It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put to death the Gibeonites.'
2 Então chamou o rei aos gibeonitas, e lhes fallou (ora os gibeonitas não eram dos filhos de Israel, mas do resto dos amorrheos, e os filhos de Israel lhes tinham jurado, porém Saul procurou feril-os no seu zelo á causa dos filhos de Israel e de Judah).
And the king called the Gibeonites, and said unto them — now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn unto them; and Saul sought to slay them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah —
3 Disse pois David aos gibeonitas: Que quereis que eu vos faça? e que satisfação vos darei, para que abençoeis a herança do Senhor?
and David said unto the Gibeonites: 'What shall I do for you? and wherewith shall I make atonement, that ye may bless the inheritance of the LORD?'
4 Então os gibeonitas lhe disseram: Não é por prata nem oiro que temos questão com Saul e com sua casa; nem tão pouco pretendemos matar pessoa alguma em Israel. E disse elle: Que é pois que quereis que vos faça?
And the Gibeonites said unto him: 'It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul, or his house; neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel.' And he said: 'What say ye that I should do for you?'
5 E disseram ao rei: O homem que nos destruiu, e intentou contra nós que fossemos assollados, sem que podessemos subsistir em termo algum de Israel,
And they said unto the king: 'The man that consumed us, and that devised against us, so that we have been destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
6 De seus filhos se nos dêem sete homens, para que os enforquemos ao Senhor em Gibeah de Saul, o eleito do Senhor. E disse o rei: Eu os darei.
let seven men of his sons be delivered unto us, and we will hang them up unto the LORD in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of the LORD.' And the king said: 'I will deliver them.'
7 Porém o rei poupou a Mephiboseth, filho de Jonathan, filho de Saul, por causa do juramento do Senhor, que entre elles houvera, entre David e Jonathan, filho de Saul.
But the king spared Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the LORD'S oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 Porém tomou o rei os dois filhos de Rispa, filha d'Aia, que tinha parido a Saul, a saber a Armoni e a Mephiboseth; como tambem os cinco filhos da irmã de Michal, filha de Saul, que parira a Adriel, filho de Barzillai, meholathita.
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore unto Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Michal the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite;
9 E os entregou na mão dos gibeonitas, os quaes os enforcaram no monte, perante o Senhor; e cairam estes sete juntamente: e foram mortos nos dias da sega, nos dias primeiros, no principio da sega das cevadas.
and he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them in the mountain before the LORD, and they fell all seven together; and they were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
10 Então Rispa, filha d'Aia, tomou um panno de cilicio, e estendeu-lh'o sobre uma penha, desde o principio da sega, até que distillou a agua sobre elles do céu: e não deixou as aves do céu pousar sobre elles de dia, nem os animaes do campo de noite.
And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth, and spread it for her upon the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water was poured upon them from heaven; and she suffered neither the birds of the air to rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
11 E foi dito a David o que fizera Rispa, filha d'Aia, concubina de Saul.
And it was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
12 Então foi David, e tomou os ossos de Saul, e os ossos de Jonathan seu filho, dos moradores de Jabéz-gilead, os quaes os furtaram da rua de Beth-san, onde os philisteos os tinham pendurado, quando os philisteos feriram a Saul em Gilboa.
And David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh-gilead, who had stolen them from the broad place of Beth-shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, in the day that the Philistines slew Saul in Gilboa;
13 E fez subir d'ali os ossos de Saul, e os ossos de Jonathan seu filho: e ajuntaram tambem os ossos dos enforcados.
and he brought up from thence the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son; and they gathered the bones of them that were hanged.
14 Enterraram os ossos de Saul, e de Jonathan seu filho na terra de Benjamin, em Zela, na sepultura de seu pae Kis, e fizeram tudo o que o rei ordenara; e depois d'isto Deus se aplacou com a terra.
And they buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the sepulchre of Kish his father; and they performed all that the king commanded. And after that God was entreated for the land.
15 Tiveram mais os philisteos uma peleja contra Israel: e desceu David, e com elle os seus servos: e tanto pelejaram contra os philisteos, que David se cançou.
And the Philistines had war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines; and David waxed faint.
16 E Isbi-benob, que era dos filhos do gigante, e o peso de cuja lança tinha trezentos siclos de peso de cobre, e que cingia uma espada nova, este intentou ferir a David.
And Ishbibenob, who was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of brass in weight, he being girded with new armour, thought to have slain David.
17 Porém Abisai, filho de Zeruia, o soccorreu, e feriu o philisteo, e o matou: então os homens de David lhe juraram, dizendo: Nunca mais sairás comnosco á peleja, para que não apagues a lampada de Israel.
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah succoured him, and smote the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore unto him, saying: 'Thou shalt go no more out with us to battle, that thou quench not the lamp of Israel.'
18 E aconteceu depois d'isto que houve em Gob ainda outra peleja contra os philisteos: então Sibbechai, o husatita, feriu a Saph, que era dos filhos do gigante.
And it came to pass after this, that there was again war with the Philistines at Gob; then Sibbecai the Hushathite slew Saph, who was of the sons of the giant.
19 Houve mais outra peleja contra os philisteos em Gob: e El-hanan, filho de Jaaré-oregim, o beth-lehemita feriu Goliath, o getheo, de cuja lança era a haste como orgão de tecelão.
And there was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Beth-lehemite slew Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
20 Houve ainda tambem outra peleja em Gath, onde estava um homem d'alta estatura, que tinha em cada mão seis dedos, e em cada pé outros seis, vinte e quatro por todos, e tambem este nascera do gigante.
And there was again war at Gath, where was a champion, that had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the giant.
21 E injuriava a Israel: porém Jonathan, filho de Simea, irmão de David, o feriu.
And when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother slew him.
22 Estes quatro nasceram ao gigante em Gath: e cairam pela mão de David e pela mão de seus servos.
These four were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
