1 Samuel 30
1 When David and his men had come to Ziklag on the third day, the Amalekites had made a raid on the South and on Ziklag, and had struck Ziklag and burned it with fire,
Succedeu pois que, chegando David e os seus homens ao terceiro dia a Siclag, já os amalekitas com impeto tinham dado sobre o sul, e sobre Siclag, e tinham ferido a Siclag e a tinham queimado a fogo.
2 and had taken captive the women and all who were in it, both small and great. They did not kill any, but carried them off and went their way.
E as mulheres que estavam n'ella levaram captivas, porém a ninguem mataram, nem pequenos nem grandes; tão sómente os levaram comsigo, e foram pelo seu caminho.
3 When David and his men came to the city, behold, it was burned with fire; and their wives, their sons, and their daughters were taken captive.
E David e os seus homens vieram á cidade, e eis que estava queimada a fogo, e suas mulheres, seus filhos e suas filhas eram levados captivos.
4 Then David and the people who were with him lifted up their voice and wept until they had no more power to weep.
Então David e o povo que se achava com elle alçaram a sua voz, e choraram, até que n'elles não houve mais força para chorar.
5 David’s two wives were taken captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
Tambem as duas mulheres de David foram levadas captivas; Achinoam, a jizreelita, e Abigail, a mulher de Nabal, o carmelita.
6 David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the souls of all the people were grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters; but David strengthened himself in the LORD his God.
E David muito se angustiou, porque o povo fallava de apedrejal-o, porque o animo de todo o povo estava em amargura, cada um por causa dos seus filhos e das suas filhas: todavia David se esforçou no Senhor seu Deus.
7 David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, “Please bring the ephod here to me.” Abiathar brought the ephod to David.
E disse David a Abiathar, o sacerdote, filho de Achimelech: Traze-me, peço-te, aqui o ephod. E Abiathar trouxe o ephod a David.
8 David inquired of the LORD, saying, “If I pursue after this troop, will I overtake them?” He answered him, “Pursue, for you will surely overtake them, and will without fail recover all.”
Então consultou David ao Senhor, dizendo: Perseguirei eu a esta tropa? alcançal-a-hei? E o Senhor lhe disse: Persegue-a, porque decerto a alcançarás, e tudo libertarás.
9 So David went, he and the six hundred men who were with him, and came to the brook Besor, where those who were left behind stayed.
Partiu pois David, elle e os seiscentos homens que com elle se achavam, e chegaram ao ribeiro de Besor, onde os que ficaram atraz pararam.
10 But David pursued, he and four hundred men; for two hundred stayed behind, who were so faint that they could not go over the brook Besor.
E seguiu-os David, elle e os quatrocentos homens, pois que duzentos homens ficaram, por não poderem, de cançados que estavam, passar o ribeiro de Besor.
11 They found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David, and gave him bread, and he ate; and they gave him water to drink.
E acharam no campo um homem egypcio, e o trouxeram a David: deram-lhe pão, e comeu, e deram-lhe a beber agua.
12 They gave him a piece of a cake of figs and two clusters of raisins. When he had eaten, his spirit came again to him; for he had eaten no bread, and drank no water for three days and three nights.
Deram-lhe tambem um pedaço de massa de figos seccos e dois cachos de passas, e comeu, e voltou-lhe o seu espirito, porque havia tres dias e tres noites que não tinha comido pão nem bebido agua.
13 David asked him, “To whom do you belong? Where are you from?” He said, “I am a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days ago I got sick.
Então David lhe disse: De quem és tu, e d'onde és? E disse o moço egypcio: Sou servo d'um homem amalekita, e meu senhor me deixou, porque adoeci ha tres dias.
14 We made a raid on the South of the Cherethites, and on that which belongs to Judah, and on the South of Caleb; and we burned Ziklag with fire.”
Nós démos com impeto para a banda do sul dos cherethitas, e para a banda de Judah, e para a banda do sul de Caleb, e pozemos fogo a Siclag.
15 David said to him, “Will you bring me down to this troop?” He said, “Swear to me by God that you will not kill me and not deliver me up into the hands of my master, and I will bring you down to this troop.”
E disse-lhe David: Poderias, descendo, guiar-me a essa tropa? E disse-lhe: Por Deus me jura que me não matarás, nem me entregarás na mão de meu senhor, e, descendo, te guiare a essa tropa.
16 When he had brought him down, behold, they were spread around over all the ground, eating, drinking, and dancing, because of all the great plunder that they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
E, descendo, o guiou e eis que estavam espalhados sobre a face de toda a terra, comendo, e bebendo, e dançando, por todo aquelle grande despojo que tomaram da terra dos philisteos e da terra de Judah.
17 David struck them from the twilight even to the evening of the next day. Not a man of them escaped from there, except four hundred young men who rode on camels and fled.
E feriu-os David, desde o crepusculo até á tarde do dia seguinte, e nenhum d'elles escapou, senão só quatrocentos mancebos que, montados sobre camelos, fugiram.
18 David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken, and David rescued his two wives.
Assim livrou David tudo quanto tomaram aos amalekitas: tambem as suas duas mulheres livrou David.
19 There was nothing lacking to them, neither small nor great, neither sons nor daughters, neither plunder, nor anything that they had taken. David brought them all back.
E ninguem lhes faltou, desde o menor até ao maior, e até os filhos e as filhas; e tambem desde o despojo até tudo quanto lhes tinham tomado, tudo David tornou a trazer.
20 David took all the flocks and the herds, which they drove before those other livestock, and said, “This is David’s plunder.”
Tambem tomou David todas as ovelhas e vaccas, e levavam-n'as diante do outro gado, e diziam: Este é o despojo de David.
21 David came to the two hundred men, who were so faint that they could not follow David, whom also they had made to stay at the brook Besor; and they went out to meet David, and to meet the people who were with him. When David came near to the people, he greeted them.
E, chegando David aos duzentos homens que, de cançados que estavam, não poderam seguir a David, e que deixaram ficar no ribeiro de Besor, estes sairam ao encontro de David e do povo que com elle vinha: e, chegando-se David ao povo, os saudou em paz.
22 Then all the wicked men and worthless fellows of those who went with David answered and said, “Because they did not go with us, we will not give them anything of the plunder that we have recovered, except to every man his wife and his children, that he may lead them away and depart.”
Então todos os maus, e filhos de Belial, d'entre os homens que tinham ido com David, responderam, e disseram: Visto que não foram comnosco, não lhes daremos do despojo que libertámos; mas que leve cada um sua mulher e seus filhos, e se vá.
23 Then David said, “Do not do so, my brothers, with that which the LORD has given to us, who has preserved us, and delivered the troop that came against us into our hand.
Porém David disse: Não fareis assim, irmãos meus, com o que nos deu o Senhor, que nos guardou, e entregou a tropa que contra nós vinha nas nossas mãos.
24 Who will listen to you in this matter? For as his share is who goes down to the battle, so shall his share be who stays with the baggage. They shall share alike.”
E quem a tal vos daria ouvidos? porque qual é a parte dos que desceram á peleja, tal tambem será a parte dos que ficaram com a bagagem; egualmente repartirão.
25 It was so from that day forward that he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel to this day.
O que assim foi desde aquelle dia em diante, porquanto o poz por estatuto e direito em Israel até ao dia de hoje.
26 When David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the plunder to the elders of Judah, even to his friends, saying, “Behold, a present for you from the plunder of the LORD’s enemies.”
E, chegando David a Siclag, enviou do despojo aos anciãos de Judah, seus amigos, dizendo: Eis ahi para vós uma benção do despojo dos inimigos do Senhor;
27 He sent it to those who were in Bethel, to those who were in Ramoth of the South, to those who were in Jattir,
Aos de Beth-el, e aos de Ramoth do sul, e aos de Jatter,
28 to those who were in Aroer, to those who were in Siphmoth, to those who were in Eshtemoa,
E aos d'Aroer, e aos de Siphmoth, e aos d'Esthemoa,
29 to those who were in Racal, to those who were in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, to those who were in the cities of the Kenites,
E aos de Rachal, e aos que estavam nas cidades jerahmeelitas e nas cidades dos keneos,
30 to those who were in Hormah, to those who were in Borashan, to those who were in Athach,
E aos d'Horma, e aos de Corasan, e aos d'Athak,
31 to those who were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men used to stay.
E aos d'Hebron, e a todos os logares em que andara David, elle e os seus homens.
