< Josué 10 >

1 Agora quando Adoni-Zedeque, rei de Jerusalém, ouviu como Josué havia tomado Ai, e o havia destruído completamente; como havia feito com Jericó e seu rei, assim fez com Ai e seu rei; e como os habitantes de Gibeon haviam feito as pazes com Israel, e estavam entre eles,
Now it came to pass, when Adonizedek king of Jerusalem had heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and its king, so he had done to Ai and its king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them;
2 eles tinham muito medo, porque Gibeon era uma grande cidade, como uma das cidades reais, e porque era maior que Ai, e todos os seus homens eram poderosos.
That they feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
3 Portanto Adoni-Zedek, rei de Jerusalém, enviou a Hoham rei de Hebron, Piram rei de Jarmuth, Japhia rei de Laquis, e Debir rei de Eglon, dizendo:
Therefore Adonizedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, and to Piram king of Jarmuth, and to Japhia king of Lachish, and to Debir king of Eglon, saying,
4 “Venha até mim e me ajude”. Vamos atacar Gibeon; pois eles fizeram as pazes com Josué e com os filhos de Israel”.
Come up to me, and help me, that we may smite Gibeon: for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.
5 Therefore os cinco reis dos amorreus, o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebron, o rei de Jarmute, o rei de Laquis e o rei de Eglon, se reuniram e subiram, eles e todos os seus exércitos, e acamparam contra Gibeon, e fizeram guerra contra ele.
Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their hosts, and encamped before Gibeon, and made war against it.
6 Os homens de Gibeon enviaram a Josué no acampamento em Gilgal, dizendo: “Não abandone seus servos! Venha até nós rapidamente e nos salve! Ajude-nos; pois todos os reis dos amorreus que habitam na região montanhosa se reuniram contra nós”.
And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the camp at Gilgal, saying, Do not forsake thy servants; come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us: for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the mountains are gathered together against us.
7 Então Josué subiu de Gilgal, ele e todo o exército com ele, incluindo todos os poderosos homens de valor.
So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valour.
8 Yahweh disse a Joshua: “Não tenha medo deles, pois eu os entreguei em suas mãos”. Nem um homem deles estará diante de você”.
And the LORD said to Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hand; there shall not a man of them stand before thee.
9 Joshua, portanto, chegou a eles de repente. Ele marchou de Gilgal a noite toda.
Joshua therefore came to them suddenly, and went up from Gilgal all night.
10 Yahweh confundiu-os diante de Israel. Ele os matou com uma grande matança em Gibeon, e os perseguiu pelo caminho da ascensão de Beth Horon, e os atingiu até Azekah e até Makkedah.
And the LORD destroyed them before Israel, and slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way that goeth up to Bethhoron, and smote them to Azekah, and to Makkedah.
11 Quando fugiram de antes de Israel, enquanto estavam na descida de Beth Horon, Yahweh atirou grandes pedras do céu sobre eles para Azekah, e eles morreram. Havia mais pessoas que morreram das pedras de granizo do que aquelas que os filhos de Israel mataram com a espada.
And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the descent to Bethhoron, that the LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them to Azekah, and they died: they were more who died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword.
12 Então Josué falou a Javé no dia em que Javé entregou os amorreus diante dos filhos de Israel. Ele disse aos olhos de Israel: “Sol, fique parado em Gibeon! Tu, lua, pára no vale de Aijalon”!
Then spoke Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon.
13 O sol ficou parado, e a lua permaneceu, até que a nação se vingasse de seus inimigos. Isto não está escrito no livro de Jashar? O sol permaneceu no meio do céu, e não se apressou a se pôr por um dia inteiro.
And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.
14 Não havia um dia assim antes ou depois, que Iavé ouvisse a voz de um homem; pois Iavé lutou por Israel.
And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened to the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel.
15 Josué voltou, e todo Israel com ele, ao acampamento em Gilgal.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp at Gilgal.
16 Estes cinco reis fugiram, e se esconderam na caverna em Makkedah.
But these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave at Makkedah.
17 Foi dito a Josué, dizendo: “Os cinco reis foram encontrados, escondidos na caverna em Makkedah”.
And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found hid in a cave at Makkedah.
18 Joshua disse: “Enrole grandes pedras para cobrir a entrada da caverna, e coloque homens ao seu lado para protegê-los;
And Joshua said, Roll great stones upon the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to keep them:
19 mas não fique lá. Persiga seus inimigos e ataque-os pela retaguarda”. Não permita que entrem em suas cidades; pois Yahweh seu Deus os entregou em suas mãos”.
And stay you not, but pursue your enemies, and smite the rear of them; permit them not to enter into their cities: for the LORD your God hath delivered them into your hand.
20 Quando Josué e as crianças de Israel terminaram de matá-los com um grande massacre até serem consumidos, e o resto que restava deles tinha entrado nas cidades fortificadas,
And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had finished slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, that the rest who remained of them entered into fortified cities.
21 todo o povo voltou ao acampamento para Josué em Makkedah em paz. Nenhum mexeu sua língua contra nenhuma das crianças de Israel.
And all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.
22 Então Josué disse: “Abra a entrada da caverna e traga aqueles cinco reis para fora da caverna até mim”.
Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring those five kings to me out of the cave.
23 Eles o fizeram e lhe trouxeram aqueles cinco reis da caverna: o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebron, o rei de Jarmuth, o rei de Laquis e o rei de Eglon.
And they did so, and brought those five kings to him out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
24 Quando eles trouxeram aqueles reis para Josué, Josué chamou todos os homens de Israel e disse aos chefes dos homens de guerra que foram com ele: “Cheguem perto. Ponham seus pés no pescoço desses reis”. Eles se aproximaram e colocaram seus pés no pescoço.
And it came to pass, when they brought out those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the captains of the men of war who went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them.
25 Joshua disse-lhes: “Não tenham medo, nem se desesperem. Sejam fortes e corajosos, pois Yahweh fará isso com todos os seus inimigos contra os quais vocês lutam”.
And Joshua said to them, Fear not, nor be dismayed, be strong and of good courage: for thus shall the LORD do to all your enemies against whom ye fight.
26 Depois disso, Joshua os atingiu, os matou e os enforcou em cinco árvores. Eles foram pendurados nas árvores até a noite.
And afterward Joshua smote them, and slew them, and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.
27 No momento do pôr do sol, Josué ordenou, e eles os tiraram das árvores, e os jogaram na caverna em que se haviam escondido, e colocaram grandes pedras na boca da caverna, que permanecem até hoje.
And it came to pass at the time of the setting of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, and cast them into the cave in which they had been hid, and laid great stones upon the cave’s mouth, which remain until this very day.
28 Josué tomou Makkedah naquele dia, e o golpeou com o fio da espada, com seu rei. Ele a destruiu completamente e a todas as almas que estavam nela. Ele não deixou ninguém restante. Ele fez com o rei de Makkedah como havia feito com o rei de Jericó.
And that day Joshua took Makkedah, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and its king he utterly destroyed, them, and all the souls that were in it; he let none remain: and he did to the king of Makkedah as he did to the king of Jericho.
29 Josué passou de Makkedah, e todo Israel com ele, para Libnah, e lutou contra Libnah.
Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, to Libnah, and fought against Libnah:
30 Yahweh também o entregou, com seu rei, nas mãos de Israel. Ele a golpeou com o fio da espada, e todas as almas que estavam nela. Ele não deixou ninguém que nela permanecesse. Ele fez com seu rei, como havia feito com o rei de Jericó.
And the LORD delivered it also, and its king, into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were in it; he let none remain in it; but did to its king as he did to the king of Jericho.
31 Josué passou de Libnah, e todo Israel com ele, para Laquis, e se acampou contra ele, e lutou contra ele.
And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it:
32 Yahweh entregou Laquis nas mãos de Israel. Ele o tomou no segundo dia, e o atingiu com o fio da espada, com todas as almas que estavam nele, de acordo com tudo o que ele havia feito a Libnah.
And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, who took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were in it, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
33 Então Horam, rei de Gezer, subiu para ajudar Laquis; e Josué bateu nele e em seu povo, até que ele não lhe deixou mais ninguém.
Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining.
34 Josué passou de Laquis, e todo Israel com ele, para Eglon; e eles acamparam contra ele e lutaram contra ele.
And from Lachish Joshua passed to Eglon, and all Israel with him; and they encamped against it, and fought against it:
35 Eles a pegaram naquele dia, e a golpearam com o fio da espada. Ele destruiu completamente todas as almas que estavam nele naquele dia, de acordo com tudo o que ele havia feito a Laquis.
And they took it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were in it he utterly destroyed that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.
36 Josué subiu de Eglon, e todo Israel com ele, para Hebron; e eles lutaram contra isso.
And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, to Hebron; and they fought against it:
37 Eles a pegaram, e a golpearam com o fio da espada, com seu rei e todas as suas cidades, e todas as almas que estavam dentro dela. Ele não deixou ninguém restante, de acordo com tudo o que havia feito a Eglon; mas ele a destruiu totalmente, e todas as almas que estavam nela.
And they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and its king, and all its cities and all the souls that were in them; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but destroyed it utterly, and all the souls that were in it.
38 Josué voltou, e todo Israel com ele, a Debir, e lutou contra isso.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it:
39 Ele o levou, com seu rei e todas as suas cidades. Eles os atingiram com o fio da espada, e destruíram completamente todas as almas que estavam nela. Ele não deixou ninguém restante. Como havia feito com Hebron, assim fez com Debir, e com seu rei; como havia feito também com Libnah, e com seu rei.
And he took it, and its king, and all its cities; and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that were in them; he left none remaining: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to its king; as he had done also to Libnah, and to its king.
40 Então Josué atingiu toda a terra, a região montanhosa, o Sul, as terras baixas, as encostas e todos os seus reis. Ele não deixou ninguém restante, mas destruiu completamente tudo o que respirava, como ordenou Yahweh, o Deus de Israel.
So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded.
41 Josué os atingiu desde Kadesh Barnea até Gaza, e todo o país de Goshen, até Gibeon.
And Joshua smote them from Kadeshbarnea even to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even to Gibeon.
42 Josué tomou todos esses reis e suas terras de uma só vez porque Javé, o Deus de Israel, lutou por Israel.
And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the LORD God of Israel fought for Israel.
43 Josué voltou, e todo Israel com ele, ao acampamento em Gilgal.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp in Gilgal.
