1 Samuel 10

1 Tomando então Samuel um frasco de azeite, derramou-o sobre sua cabeça, e beijou-o, e disse-lhe: Não foi o SENHOR que te ungiu para que sejas líder sobre sua propriedade?

And Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured [it] on his head, and kissed him, and said to him, Has not the Lord anointed you for a ruler over his people, over Israel? and you shall rule among the people of the Lord, and you shall save them out of the hand of their enemies; and this [shall be] the sign to you that the Lord has anointed you for a ruler over his inheritance.

2 Hoje, depois que te tenhas apartado de mim, acharás dois homens junto ao sepulcro de Raquel, no termo de Benjamim, em Zelza, os quais te dirão: As asnas que havias ido a buscar, se acharam; teu pai pois há deixado já o negócio das asnas, porém está preocupado convosco, dizendo: Que farei acerca de meu filho?

[As soon] as you shall have departed this day from me, you shall find two men by the burial-place of Rachel on the mount of Benjamin, exulting greatly; and they shall say to you, The asses are found which you went to seek; and, behold, your father has given up the matter of the asses, and he is anxious for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?

3 E quando dali te fores mais adiante, e chegares à campina de Tabor, te sairão ao encontro três homens que sobem a Deus em Betel, levando o um três cabritos, e o outro três tortas de pão, e o terceiro uma vasilha de vinho:

And you shall depart thence, and shall go beyond that as far as the oak of Thabor, and you shall find there three men going up to God to Baethel, one bearing three kids, and another bearing three vessels of bread, and another bearing a bottle of wine.

4 Os quais, logo que te tenham saudado, te darão dois pães, os quais tomarás das mãos deles.

And they shall ask you how you do, and shall give you two presents of bread, and you shall receive them of their hand.

5 De ali virás ao morro de Deus de onde está a guarnição dos filisteus; e quando entrares ali na cidade encontrarás uma companhia de profetas que descem do alto, e diante deles saltério, e adufe, e flauta, e harpa, e eles profetizando:

And afterward you shall go to the hill of God, where is the encampment of the Philistines; there [is] Nasib the Philistine: an it shall come to pass when you shall have entered into the city, that you shall meet a band of prophets coming down from the Bama; and before them will be lutes, and a drum, and a pipe, and a harp, and they shall prophesy.

6 E o espírito do SENHOR te arrebatará, e profetizarás com eles, e serás transformado em outro homem.

And the Spirit of the Lord shall come upon you, and you shall prophesy with them, and shall be turned into another man.

7 E quando te houverem sobrevindo estas sinais, faze o que te vier à mão, porque Deus é contigo.

And it shall come to pass when these signs shall come upon you, —[then] do you whatever your hand shall find, because God [is] with you.

8 E descerás antes de mim a Gilgal; e logo descerei eu a ti para sacrificar holocaustos, e imolar sacrifícios pacíficos. Espera sete dias, até que eu venha a ti, e te ensine o que hás de fazer.

And you shall go down in front of Galgal, and behold, I come down to you to offer a whole burnt offering and peace-offerings: seven days shall you wait until I shall come to you, and I will make known to you what you shall do.

9 E foi que assim quando virou ele seu ombro para partir-se de Samuel, mudou-lhe Deus seu coração; e todas estes sinais aconteceram naquele dia.

And it came to pass when he turned his back to depart from Samuel, God gave him another heart; and all these signs came to pass in that day.

10 E quando chegaram ali ao morro, eis que a companhia dos profetas que vinha a encontrar-se com ele, e o Espírito de Deus o arrebatou, e profetizou entre eles.

And he comes thence to the hill, and behold a band of prophets opposite to him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied in the midst of them.

11 E aconteceu que, quando todos os que o conheciam de antes viram como profetizava com os profetas, o povo dizia o um ao outro: Que sucedeu ao filho de Quis? Saul também entre os profetas?

And all that had known him before came, and saw, and behold, he [was] in the midst of the prophets: and the people said every one to his neighbor, What [is] this that has happened to the son of Kis? [is] Saul also among the prophets?

12 E algum dali respondeu, e disse: E quem é o pai deles? Por esta causa se tornou em provérbio: Também Saul entre os profetas?

And one of them answered and said, And who [is] his father? and therefore it became a proverb, [Is] Saul also among the prophets?

13 E cessou de profetizar, e chegou ao alto.

And he ceased prophesying, and comes to the hill.

14 E um tio de Saul disse a ele e a seu criado: Aonde fostes? E ele respondeu: A buscar as asnas; e quando vimos que não apareciam, fomos a Samuel.

And his kinsman said to him and to his servant, Whither went you? and they said, To seek the asses; and we saw that they were lost, and we went in to Samuel.

15 E disse o tio de Saul: Eu te rogo me declares que vos disse Samuel.

And his kinsman said to Saul, Tell me, I pray you, What did Samuel say to you?

16 E Saul respondeu a seu tio: Declarou-nos expressamente que as asnas haviam aparecido. Mas do negócio do reino, de que Samuel lhe havia falado, não lhe revelou nada.

And Saul said to his kinsman, he verily told me that the asses were found. But the matter of the kingdom he told him not.

17 E Samuel convocou o povo ao SENHOR em Mispá;

And Samuel summoned all the people before the Lord to Massephath.

18 E disse aos filhos de Israel: Assim disse o SENHOR o Deus de Israel: Eu tirei a Israel do Egito, e vos livre da mão dos egípcios, e da mão de todos os reinos que vos afligiram:

And he said to the children of Israel, Thus has the Lord God of Israel spoken, saying, I brought up the children of Israel out of Egypt, and I rescued you out of the hand of Pharao king of Egypt, and out of all the kingdoms that afflicted you.

19 Mas vós rejeitastes hoje a vosso Deus, que vos guarda de todas as vossas aflições e angústias, e dissestes: Não, mas sim põe rei sobre nós. Agora pois, ponde-vos diante do SENHOR por vossas tribos e por vossos milhares.

And you have this day rejected God, who is himself your Deliverer out of all your evils and afflictions; and you said, Nay, but you shall set a king over us: and now stand before the Lord according to your tribes, and according to your families.

20 E fazendo achegar Samuel todas as tribos de Israel, foi tomada a tribo de Benjamim.

And Samuel brought near all the tribes of Israel, and the tribe of Benjamin is taken by lot.

21 E fez chegar a tribo de Benjamim por suas linhagens, e foi tomada a família de Matri; e dela foi tomado Saul filho de Quis. E lhe buscaram, mas não foi achado.

And he brings near the tribe of Benjamin by families, and the family of Mattari is taken by lot: and they bring near the family of Mattari, man by man, and Saul the son of Kis is taken; and he sought him, but he was not found.

22 Perguntaram pois outra vez ao SENHOR, se havia ainda de vir ali aquele homem. E respondeu o SENHOR: Eis que ele está escondido entre a bagagem.

And Samuel asked yet again of the Lord, Will the man come here? and the Lord said, Behold, he is hid among the stuff.

23 Então correram, e tomaram-no dali, e posto em meio do povo, desde o ombro acima era mais alto que todo o povo.

And he ran and took him thence, and he set him in the midst of the people; and he was higher than all the people by his shoulders and upwards.

24 E Samuel disse a todo o povo: Vistes ao que o SENHOR escolheu, que não há semelhante a ele em todo o povo? Então o povo clamou com alegria, dizendo: Viva o rei!

And Samuel said to all the people, Have you seen whom the Lord has chosen to himself, that there is none like to him among you all? And all the people took notice, and said, Let the king live!

25 Então Samuel recitou ao povo o direito do reino, e escreveu-o em um livro, o qual guardou diante do SENHOR.

And Samuel told the people the manner of the king, and wrote it in a book, and set it before the Lord: and Samuel sent away all the people, and each went to his place.

26 E enviou Samuel a todo o povo cada um a sua casa. E Saul também se foi a sua casa em Gibeá, e foram com ele o exército, o coração dos quais Deus havia tocado.

And Saul departed to his house to Gabaa; and there went with Saul mighty men whose hearts God had touched.

27 Porém os ímpios disseram: Como nos há de salvar este? E tiveram-lhe em pouco, e não lhe trouxeram presente: mas ele dissimulou.

But evil men said, Who [is] this man [that] shall save us? and they despised him, and brought him no gifts.
