1 Samuel 14
1 Sucedeu pois que um dia disse Jonathan, filho de Saul, ao moço que lhe levava as armas: Vem, passemos à guarnição dos philisteus, que está lá daquela banda. Porém não o fez saber a seu pai
One day, Jonathan son of Saul said to his young armor bearer, “Come, let us go over to the Philistines' garrison on the other side.” But he did not tell his father.
2 E estava Saul à extremidade de Gibeah, debaixo da romeira que estava em Migron; e o povo que havia com ele eram uns seiscentos homens.
Saul was staying on the outskirts of Gibeah under the pomegranate tree that is in Migron. About six hundred men were with him,
3 E Ahija, filho de Ahitub, irmão de Icabod, o filho de Phineas, filho de Eli, sacerdote do Senhor em Silo, trazia o éfode: porém o povo não sabia que Jonathan tinha ido.
including Ahijah son of Ahitub (Ichabod's brother) son of Phinehas son of Eli, the priest of Yahweh at Shiloh, who wore an ephod. The people did not know that Jonathan was gone.
4 E entre os passos pelos quais Jonathan procurava passar à guarnição dos philisteus, desta banda havia uma penha aguda, e da outra banda uma penha aguda: e era o nome de uma Bozez, e o nome da outra Senné.
On each side of the pass through which Jonathan wanted to go in order to get to the Philistines' garrison, there was a rocky cliff on one side and another rocky cliff on the other side. One rocky cliff was called Bozez and the other rocky cliff was called Seneh.
5 Uma penha para o norte estava defronte de Michmas, e a outra para o sul defronte de Gibeah.
One rocky cliff stood on the north in front of Michmash, and the other on the south in front of Geba.
6 Disse pois Jonathan ao moço que lhe levava as armas: Vem, passemos à guarnição destes incircuncisos; porventura obrará o Senhor por nós, porque para com o Senhor nenhum impedimento há de livrar com muitos ou com poucos.
Jonathan said to his young armor bearer, “Come, let us cross over to the garrison of these uncircumcised fellows. It may be that Yahweh will work on our behalf, for nothing can stop Yahweh from saving by many or by few people.”
7 Então o seu pagem de armas lhe disse: Faze tudo o que tens no coração; volta, eis-me aqui contigo, conforme ao teu coração.
His armor bearer replied, “Do everything that is in your heart. Go ahead, see, I am with you, to obey all your commands.”
8 Disse pois Jonathan: Eis que passaremos àqueles homens, e nos descobriremos a eles.
Then Jonathan said, “We will cross over to the men, and we will show ourselves to them.
9 Se nos disserem assim: parai até que cheguemos a vós; então ficaremos no nosso lugar, e não subiremos a eles.
If they say to us, 'Wait there until we come over to you'—then we will stay in our place and will not cross over to them.
10 Porém, dizendo assim: Subi a nós; então subiremos, pois o Senhor os tem entregado na nossa mão, e isto nos será por sinal.
But if they reply, 'Come over to us,' then we will cross over; because Yahweh has given them into our hand. This will be the sign to us.”
11 Descobrindo-se ambos eles pois à guarnição dos philisteus, disseram os philisteus: Eis que já os hebreus sairam das cavernas em que se tinham escondido.
So both of them revealed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines. The Philistines said, “Look, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hidden themselves.”
12 E os homens da guarnição responderam a Jonathan e ao seu pagem de armas, e disseram: Subi a nós, e nós vo-lo ensinaremos. E disse Jonathan ao seu pagem de armas: Sobe atráz de mim, porque o Senhor os tem entregado na mão de Israel.
Then the men of the garrison called to Jonathan and his armor bearer, and said, “Come up to us, and we will show you something.” Jonathan said to his armor bearer, “Follow after me, because Yahweh has given them into the hand of Israel.”
13 Então trepou Jonathan com os pés e com as mãos, e o seu pagem de armas atráz dele: e cairam diante de Jonathan, e o seu pagem de armas os matava atráz dele.
Jonathan climbed up on his hands and feet, and his armor bearer followed behind him. The Philistines were put to death before Jonathan, and his armor bearer put some to death behind him.
14 E sucedeu esta primeira desfeita, em que Jonathan e o seu pagem de armas feriram até uns vinte homens, quase no meio de uma geira de terra que uma junta de bois podia lavrar.
That first attack that Jonathan and his armor bearer made, killed about twenty men within an area of half an acre.
15 E houve tremor no arraial, no campo e em todo o povo; também a mesma guarnição e os destruidores tremeram, e até a terra se alvoroçou, porquanto era tremor de Deus.
There was a panic in the camp, in the field, and among the people. Even the garrison and the raiders panicked. The earth quaked, and there was a great panic.
16 Olharam pois as sentinelas de Saul em Gibeah de Benjamin, e eis que a multidão se derramava, e fugia batendo-se.
Then Saul's watchmen in Gibeah of Benjamin looked; the crowd of Philistine soldiers was dispersing, and they were going here and there.
17 Disse então Saul ao povo que estava com ele: Ora numerai, e vede quem é que saiu dentre nós. E numeraram, e eis que nem Jonathan nem o seu pagem de armas estavam ali
Then Saul said to the people that were with him, “Count and see who is missing from us.” When they had counted, Jonathan and his armor bearer were missing.
18 Então Saul disse a Ahija: Traze aqui a arca de Deus (porque naquele dia estava a arca de Deus com os filhos de Israel).
Saul said to Ahijah, “Bring the ark of God here,” for at that time it was with the people of Israel.
19 E sucedeu que, estando Saul ainda falando com o sacerdote, o alvoroço que havia no arraial dos philisteus ia crescendo muito, e se multiplicava, pelo que disse Saul ao sacerdote: Retira a tua mão.
While Saul was talking to the priest, the commotion in the camp of the Philistines was continuing and increasing. Then Saul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.”
20 Então Saul e todo o povo que havia com ele se convocaram, e vieram à peleja; e eis que a espada dum era contra o outro, e houve mui grande tumulto.
Saul and all the people who were with him rallied and went into battle. Every Philistine's sword was against his fellow countrymen, and there was very great confusion.
21 Também com os philisteus havia hebreus, como de antes, que subiram com eles ao arraial em redor; e também estes se ajuntaram com os israelitas que estavam com Saul e Jonathan.
Now those Hebrews who previously had been with the Philistines, and who had gone with them into the camp, even they joined with the Israelites that were with Saul and Jonathan.
22 Ouvindo pois todos os homens de Israel que se esconderam pela montanha de Ephraim que os philisteus fugiam, eles também os perseguiram de perto na peleja.
When all the men of Israel who had hidden themselves in the hills near Ephraim heard that the Philistines were fleeing, even they chased after them in battle.
23 Assim livrou o Senhor a Israel naquele dia: e o arraial passou a Beth-aven.
So Yahweh saved Israel that day, and the battle passed beyond Beth Aven.
24 E estavam os homens de Israel já exaustos naquele dia, porquanto Saul conjurou o povo, dizendo: Maldito o homem que comer pão até à tarde, para que me vingue de meus inimigos. Pelo que todo o povo se absteve de provar pão
That day the men of Israel were distressed because Saul had put the people under an oath and said, “Cursed be the man that eats any food until evening and I am avenged on my enemies.” So none of the troops tasted food.
25 E toda a terra chegou a um bosque: e havia mel na superfície do campo.
Then all the people entered the forest and there was honey upon the ground.
26 E, chegando o povo ao bosque, eis que havia um manancial de mel: porém ninguém chegou a mão à boca porque o povo temia a conjuração
When the people entered into the forest, the honey flowed, but no one put his hand to his mouth for the people feared the oath.
27 Porém Jonathan não tinha ouvido quando seu pai conjurava o povo, e estendeu a ponta da vara que tinha na mão, e a molhou no favo de mel; e, tornando a mão à boca, aclararam-se os seus olhos.
But Jonathan had not heard that his father had bound the people with an oath. He reached out the tip of the staff that was in his hand and dipped it in the honeycomb. He raised his hand to his mouth, and his eyes brightened.
28 Então respondeu um do povo, e disse: solenemente conjurou teu pai o povo, dizendo: Maldito o homem que comer hoje pão. Pelo que o povo desfalecia.
Then one of the people, answered, “Your father strictly charged the people with an oath, by saying, 'Cursed be the man that eats food on this day,' even though the people are weak from hunger.”
29 Então disse Jonathan: Meu pai tem turbado a terra; ora vede como se me aclararam os olhos por ter gostado um pouco deste mel,
Then Jonathan said, “My father has made trouble for the land. See how my eyes have become brightened because I tasted a little of this honey.
30 Quanto mais se o povo hoje livremente tivesse comido do despojo que achou de seus inimigos. Porém agora não foi tão grande o estrago dos philisteus.
How much better if the people had eaten freely today of the plunder from their enemies that they found? Because now the slaughter has not been great among the Philistines.”
31 Feriram porém aquele dia aos philisteus, desde Michmas até Ajalon, e o povo desfaleceu em extremo.
They attacked the Philistines that day from Michmash to Aijalon. The people were very weary.
32 Então o povo se lançou ao despojo, e tomaram ovelhas, e vacas, e bezerros, e os degolaram no chão; e o povo os comeu com sangue.
The people rushed greedily on the plunder and took sheep, oxen and calves, and killed them on the ground. The people ate them with the blood.
33 E o anunciaram a Saul, dizendo: Eis que o povo peca contra o Senhor, comendo com sangue. E disse ele: Aleivosamente obrastes; revolvei-me hoje uma grande pedra.
Then they told Saul, “Look, the people are sinning against Yahweh by eating with the blood.” Saul said, “You have acted unfaithfully. Now, roll a big stone here to me.”
34 Disse mais Saul: derramai-vos entre o povo, e dizei-lhes: Trazei-me cada um o seu boi, e cada um a sua ovelha, e degolai-os aqui, e comei, e não pequeis contra o Senhor, comendo com sangue. Então todo o povo trouxe de noite, cada um com a sua mão, o seu boi, e os degolaram ali.
Saul said, “Go out among the people, and tell them, 'Let every man bring his ox and his sheep, kill them here, and eat. Do not sin against Yahweh by eating with the blood.'” So each of the people brought his own ox with him that night and killed it there.
35 Então edificou Saul um altar ao Senhor: este foi o primeiro altar que edificou ao Senhor.
Saul built an altar to Yahweh, which was the first altar that he built to Yahweh.
36 Depois disse Saul: Desçamos de noite atráz dos philisteus, e despojemo-los, até que amanheça a luz, e não deixemos de resto um homem deles. E disseram: Tudo o que parecer bem aos teus olhos faze. Disse porém o sacerdote: Cheguemo-nos aqui a Deus
Then Saul said, “Let us pursue the Philistines by night and plunder them until morning; let us not leave one of them alive.” They replied, “Do whatever seems good to you.” But the priest said, “Let us approach God here.”
37 Então consultou Saul a Deus, dizendo: Descerei atráz dos philisteus? entrega-los-ás na mão de Israel? Porém aquele dia lhe não respondeu.
Saul asked God, “Should I pursue the Philistines? Will you give them into the hand of Israel?” But God did not answer him that day.
38 Então disse Saul: chegai-vos para cá de todos os chefes do povo, e informai-vos, e vede em que se cometeu hoje este pecado;
Then Saul said, “Come here, all you leaders of the people; learn and see how this sin has happened today.
39 Porque vive o Senhor que salva a Israel, que, ainda que fosse em meu filho Jonathan, certamente morrerá. E nenhum de todo o povo lhe respondeu.
For, as Yahweh lives, who saves Israel, even if it is in Jonathan my son, he will surely die.” But none of the men among all the people answered him.
40 Disse mais a todo o Israel: Vós estareis de uma banda, e eu e meu filho Jonathan estaremos da outra banda. Então disse o povo a Saul: Faze o que parecer bem aos teus olhos.
Then he said to all Israel, “You must stand on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other.” The people said to Saul, “Do what seems good to you.”
41 Falou pois Saul ao Senhor Deus de Israel: Mostra o inocente. Então Jonathan e Saul foram tomados por sorte, e o povo saiu livre.
Saul said, “Yahweh, God of Israel! If this sin has been committed by me or by my son Jonathan, then, Yahweh, God of Israel, give the Urim. But if this sin has been committed by your people Israel, give the Thummim.” Then Jonathan and Saul were taken by lot, but the army was exonerated.
42 Então disse Saul: lançai a sorte entre mim e Jonathan, meu filho. E foi tomado Jonathan.
Then Saul said, “Cast lots between me and Jonathan my son.” Then Jonathan was taken by lot.
43 Disse então Saul a Jonathan: Declara-me o que tens feito. E Jonathan lho declarou, e disse: Tão somente gostei um pouco de mel com a ponta da vara que tinha na mão; eis que devo morrer.
Then Saul said to Jonathan, “Tell me what you have done.” Jonathan told him, “I tasted a little honey with the end of the rod that was in my hand. Here I am; I will die.”
44 Então disse Saul: Assim me faça Deus, e outro tanto, que com certeza morrerás, Jonathan.
Saul said, “God do so and more also to me, if you do not die, Jonathan.”
45 Porém o povo disse a Saul: Morrerá Jonathan, que obrou tão grande salvação em Israel? nunca tal suceda; vive o Senhor, que não lhe há de cair no chão um só cabelo da sua cabeça! pois com Deus fez isso hoje. Assim o povo livrou a Jonathan, para que não morresse.
Then the people said to Saul, “Should Jonathan die, who has accomplished this great victory for Israel? Far from it! As Yahweh lives, not one hair of his head will fall to the ground, for he has worked with God today.” So the people rescued Jonathan so that he did not die.
46 E Saul deixou de seguir os philisteus: e os philisteus se foram ao seu lugar.
Then Saul stopped pursuing the Philistines, and the Philistines went to their own place.
47 Então tomou Saul o reino sobre Israel; e pelejou contra todos os seus inimigos em redor: contra Moab, e contra os filhos de Ammon, e contra Edom, e contra os reis de Zoba, e contra os philisteus, e para onde quer que se tornava executava castigos.
When Saul began to rule over Israel, he fought against all his enemies on every side. He fought against Moab, the Ammonites, Edom, the kings of Zobah, and the Philistines. Wherever he turned, he inflicted punishment on them.
48 E houve-se valorosamente, e feriu aos amalequitas: e libertou a Israel da mão dos que o saqueavam.
He acted with great courage and defeated the Amalekites. He rescued Israel out of the hands of those who plundered them.
49 E os filhos de Saul eram Jonathan, e Isvi, e Malchisua: e os nomes de suas duas filhas eram estes: o nome da mais velha Merab, e o nome da mais nova, Michal.
The sons of Saul were Jonathan, Ishvi, and Malki-Shua. The names of his two daughters were Merab, the firstborn, and Michal, the younger.
50 E o nome da mulher de Saul, Ahinoam, filha de Ahimaas: e o nome do general do exército, Abner, filho de Ner, tio de Saul.
The name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam; she was the daughter of Ahimaaz. The name of the captain of his army was Abner son of Ner, Saul's uncle.
51 E Kis, pai de Saul, e Ner, pai de Abner, eram filhos de Abiel.
Kish was Saul's father; and Ner, the father of Abner, was the son of Abiel.
52 E houve uma forte guerra contra os philisteus, todos os dias de Saul: pelo que Saul a todos os homens valentes e valorosos que via os agregava a si.
There was hard fighting against the Philistines all the days of Saul. When Saul saw any mighty man, or any valiant man, he attached him to himself.
