1 Samuel 19
1 And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that he would kill David. But Jonathan the son of Saul delighted greatly in David.
E falou Saul a Jonathan, seu filho, e a todos os seus servos, para que matassem a David. Porém Jonathan, filho de Saul, estava mui afeiçoado a David.
2 And Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee; now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself in the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself:
E Jonathan o anunciou a David, dizendo: Meu pai, Saul, procura matar-te, pelo que agora guarda-te pela manhã, e fica-te em oculto, e esconde-te.
3 And I will go out and stand by the side of my father in the field where thou art, and I myself will speak of thee to my father; and I will see what it is, and I will tell thee.
E sairei eu, e estarei à mão de meu pai no campo em que estiveres, e eu falarei de ti a meu pai, e verei o que houver, e to anunciarei.
4 And Jonathan spoke favorably of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; since he hath not sinned against thee, and because his deeds are very good for thee;
Então Jonathan falou bem de David a Saul, seu pai, e disse-lhe: Não peque o rei contra seu servo David, porque ele não pecou contra ti, e porque os seus feitos te são mui bons.
5 And he did put his life in his hand, and he slew the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great salvation for all Israel; thou sawest it, and wast rejoiced: wherefore then wilt thou commit sin on innocent blood, by slaying David without a cause?
Porque pôs a sua alma na mão, e feriu aos philisteus, e fez o Senhor um grande livramento a todo o Israel; tu mesmo o viste, e te alegraste: porque, pois, pecarias contra o sangue inocente, matando a David sem causa?
6 And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan: and Saul swore, As the Lord liveth, he shall not be put to death.
E Saul deu ouvidos à voz de Jonathan, e jurou Saul: Vive o Senhor, que não morrerá.
7 And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all these words. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.
E Jonathan chamou a David, e contou-lhe todas estas palavras: e Jonathan levou David a Saul, e esteve perante ele como de antes.
8 And the war occurred again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and smote them with a great defeat, and they fled from before him.
E tornou a haver guerra: e saiu David, e pelejou contra os philisteus, e feriu-os de grande ferida, e fugiram diante dele.
9 And the evil spirit from the Lord came upon Saul, and he was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing with his hand.
Porém o espírito mau da parte do Senhor se tornou sobre Saul, estando ele assentado em sua casa, e tendo na mão a sua lança, e tangendo David com a mão o instrumento de música.
10 And Saul sought to strike David through with the spear even to the wall; but he slipped away from before Saul, who struck the spear into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.
E procurava Saul encravar a David com a parede, porém ele se desviou de diante de Saul, o qual feriu com a lança na parede: então fugiu David, e escapou naquela mesma noite.
11 But Saul sent messengers unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning; and Michal his wife told it to David, saying, If thou save not thy life this night, tomorrow thou wilt be put to death.
Porém Saul mandou mensageiros à casa de David, que o guardassem, e o matassem pela manhã: do que Michal, sua mulher, avisou a David, dizendo: Se não salvares a tua vida esta noite, amanhã te matarão.
12 And Michal let David down through the window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
Então Michal desceu a David por uma janela: e ele se foi, e fugiu, e escapou.
13 And Michal took an image, and put it in the bed, and a pillow of goats' hair she put for its head to rest on, and covered it with a cloth.
E Michal tomou uma estátua e a deitou na cama, e pôs-lhe à cabeceira uma pele de cabra, e a cobriu com uma coberta.
14 And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick.
E, mandando Saul mensageiros que trouxessem a David, ela disse: Está doente.
15 And Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may put him to death.
Então Saul mandou mensageiros que viessem a David, dizendo: trazei-mo na cama, para que o mate.
16 And when the messengers were come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats' hair for its head to rest on.
Vindo pois os mensageiros, eis aqui a estátua na cama, e a pele de cabra à sua cabeceira.
17 And Saul said unto Michal, Why hast thou thus deceived me, and sent away my enemy, that he is escaped? And Michal said to Saul, He said unto me, Let me go away: why should I kill thee?
Então disse Saul a Michal: Porque assim me enganaste, e deixaste ir e escapar o meu inimigo? E disse Michal a Saul: Porque ele me disse: Deixa-me ir, porque hei de eu matar-te?
18 So David fled, and escaped, and came unto Samuel to Ramah, and he told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and remained in Nayoth.
Assim David fugiu e escapou, e veio a Samuel, a Rama, e lhe participou tudo quanto Saul lhe fizera: e foram, ele e Samuel, e ficaram em Naioth.
19 And it was told unto Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Nayoth near Ramah.
E o anunciaram a Saul, dizendo: Eis que David está em Naioth, em Rama.
20 And Saul sent messengers to take David; and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as superintendent over them: then came upon the messengers of Saul the spirit of God, and they also prophesied.
Então enviou Saul mensageiros para trazerem a David, os quais viram uma congregação de profetas profetizando, onde estava Samuel que presidia sobre eles: e o espírito de Deus veio sobre os mensageiros de Saul, e também eles profetizaram.
21 And when it was told to Saul, he sent other messengers, and these prophesied likewise. And Saul sent again messengers the third time, and these also prophesied.
E, avisado disto Saul, enviou outros mensageiros, e também estes profetizaram: então enviou Saul ainda uns terceiros mensageiros, os quais também profetizaram.
22 Then went he himself also to Ramah, and came as far as the great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And some one said, Behold, they are at Nayoth near Ramah.
Então foi também ele mesmo a Rama, e chegou ao poço grande que estava em Secu; e, perguntando, disse: Onde estão Samuel e David? E disseram-lhe: Eis que estão em Naioth, em Rama.
23 And he went thither to Nayoth near Ramah: and there came upon him also the Spirit of God, and he went on, and prophesied as he went, until he came to Nayoth near Ramah.
Então foi-se lá para Naioth, em Rama: e o mesmo espírito de Deus veio sobre ele, e ia profetizando, até chegar a Naioth, em Rama.
24 And he also stripped off his clothes, and he also prophesied himself before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore people are in the habit of saying, Is Saul too among the prophets?
E ele também despiu os seus vestidos, e ele também profetizou diante de Samuel, e esteve nu por terra todo aquele dia e toda aquela noite; pelo que se diz: Está também Saul entre os profetas?
