1 Samuel 14

DOUAI-RHEIMS	Biblia Matos Soares
1 Now it came to pass one day that Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man that bore his armour: Come, and let us go over to the garrison of the Philistines, which is on the other side of yonder place. But he told not this to his father.	1 Um dia, Jónatas, filho de Saul, disse ao moço seu escudeiro: Vem, e passemos até ao campo dos Filisteus, que está além daquele lugar. Contudo não deu parte disto a seu pai.
2 And Saul abode in the uttermost part of Gabaa under the pomegranate tree, which was in Magron: and the people with him were about six hundred men.	2 Saul estava (acampado) na extremidade de Gabaa, debaixo duma romãzeira que havia em Magrou; a gente que tinha consigo era de cerca de seicentos homens.
3 And Achias the son of Achitob brother to Ichabod the son of Phinees, the son of Heli the priest of the Lord in Silo, wore the ephod. And the people knew not whither Jonathan was gone.	3 Aquias, filho de Aquitob, irmão de Icabod, filho de Finéias, que era filho de Heli, sacerdote do Senhor em Silo, levava um éfode. O povo também não sabia aonde tinha ido Jónatas.
4 Now there were between the ascents, by which Jonathan sought to go over to the garrison of the Philistines, rocks standing up on both sides, and steep cliffs like teeth on the one side, and on the other, the name of the one was Boses, and the name of the other was Sene:	4 Ora entre as passagens, por onde Jónatas intentava chegar à guarnição dos Filisteus, havia rochedos altos de ambas as partes, e por um e outro lado talhados em forma de dentes, um dos quais se chamava Boses, e o outro Sene.
5 One rock stood out towards the north over against Machmas, and the other to the south over against Gabaa.	5 Um destes elevava-se pela banda do norte em frente a Macmas, e o outro ao meio dia fronteiro a Gabaa.
6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour: Come, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised, it may be the Lord will do for us, because it is easy for the Lord to save either by many, or by few.	6 Disse Jónatas ao jovem seu escudeiro: Vem, passemos até ao acampamento destes incircuncidados; talvez o Senhor combaterá por nós, porque não é difícil ao Senhor vencer, quer com muitos, quer com poucos.
7 And his armourbearer said to him: Do all that pleaseth thy mind: go whither thou wilt, and I will be with thee wheresoever thou hast a mind.	7 O seu escudeiro disse-lhe: Faze tudo o que te aprouver; vai aonde desejas, que eu te seguirei a toda a parte.
8 And Jonathan said: Behold we will go over to these men. And when we shall be seen by them,	8 Jónatas disse: Vamos até junto desses homens. Quando nos mostrarmos a eles,
9 If they shall speak thus to us: Stay till we come to you: let us stand still in our place, and not go up to them.	9 se nos disserem: Esperai até que vamos ter convosco, — deixemo-nos estar no nosso posto, não avancemos para eles.
10 But if they shall say: Come up to us: let us go up, because the Lord hath delivered them into our hands, this shall be a sign unto us.	10 Porém, se disserem: Subi para nós, — subamos, porque o Senhor os entregou nas nossas mãos. Isto nos servirá de sinal.
11 So both of them discovered themselves to the garrison of the Philistines: and the Philistines said: Behold the Hebrews come forth out of the holes wherein they were hid.	11 Logo que ambos foram descobertos pela guarda dos Filisteus, os Filisteus disseram: Eis que os Hebreus saem das cavernas, onde estavam escondidos.
12 And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan, and to his armourbearer, and said: Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said to his armourbearer: Let us go up, follow me: for the Lord hath delivered them into the hands of I srael.	12 E os homens da guarda (avançada), falando a Jónatas e ao seu escudeiro, disseram: Subi cá, que vos faremos saber uma coisa. Jónatas disse ao seu escudeiro: Subamos, segue-me, porque o Senhor os entregou nas mãos de Israel.
13 And Jonathan went up creeping on his hands and feet, and his armourbearer after him. And some fell before Jonathan, others his armourbearer slew as he followed him.	13 Subiu, pois, Jónatas, trepando com as mãos e com os pés, e o seu escudeiro atrás dele. (E investindo contra os Filisteus), uns caíam diante de Jónatas, e a outros matava o seu escudeiro, que o seguia.
14 And the first slaughter which Jonathan and his armourbearer made, was of about twenty men, within half an acre of land, which a yoke of oxen is wont to plough in a day.	14 Este foi o primeiro massacre, em que Jónatas e o seu escudeiro mataram perto de vinte homens, na metade duma jeira, espaço que uma junta de bois costumava lavar num dia.
15 And there was a miracle in the camp, through the fields: yea and all the people of their garrison, who had gone out to plunder, were amazed, and the earth trembled: and it happened as a miracle from God.	15 Houve grande terror no acampamento (dos Filisteus) e pelos campos; também toda a gente da guarnição deles, que tinha saído à pilhagem , ficou tomada de espanto, e o país que ficou perturbado: este sucesso foi como um milagre de Deus.
16 And the watchmen of Saul, who were in Gabaa of Benjamin looked, and behold a multitude overthrown, and fleeing this way and that.	16 As sentinelas de Saul, que estavam em Gabaa de Benjamim, viram dispersa a multidão (dos Filisteus), fugindo para aqui e para ali.
17 And Saul said to the people that were with him: Look, and see who is gone from us. And when they had sought, it was found that Jonathan and his armourbearer were not there.	17 Saul disse ao povo que estava com ele: Perguntai, e vede quem é que saiu dentre nós. E, tendo-se inquirido, achou-se que faltavam Jónatas e o seu escudeiro.
18 And Saul said to Achias: Bring the ark of the Lord. (For the ark of God was there that day with the children of Israel.)	18 Saul disse a Aquias: Aproxima de nós a Arca de Deus (porque a Arca de Deus estava naquele dia com os filhos de Israel).
19 And while Saul spoke to the priest, there arose a great uproar in the camp of the Philistines: and it increased by degrees, and was heard more clearly. And Saul said to the priest: Draw in thy hand.	19 Enquanto Saul estava falando ao sacerdote, levantou-se um grande tumulto no acampamento dos Filisteus, que crescia, pouco a pouco, e se percebia cada vez mais. Saul disse ao sacerdote: Retira a tua mão (deixa de consultar).
20 Then Saul and all the people that were with him, shouted together, and they came to the place of the fight: and behold every man's sword was turned upon his neighbour, and there was a very great slaughter.	20 Depois Saul e todo o povo que estava com ele foram até ao lugar do combate e viram que a espada dum se tinha voltado contra a de outro e que a confusão era extrema.
21 Moreover the Hebrews that had been with the Philistines yesterday and the day before, and went up with them into the camp, returned to be with the Israelites, who were with Saul and Jonathan.	21 Os Hebreus, que tinham estado com os Filisteus nos dias antecedentes e que tinham ido com eles ao acampamento, voltaram a pôr-se ao lado dos Israelitas, que estavam com Saul e Jónatas.
22 And all the Israelites that had hid themselves in mount Ephraim, hearing that the Philistines fled, joined themselves with their countrymen in the fight. And there were with Saul about ten thousand men.	22 Igualmente todos os Israelitas que se tinham escondido no monte de Efraim, sabendo que os Filisteus tinham fugido, uniram-se aos seus na batalha. Estavam com Saul cerca de dez mil homens.
23 And the Lord saved Israel that day. And the fight went on as far as Bethaven.	23 Naquele dia o Senhor salvou Israel. A batalha chegou até Betaven.
24 And the men of Israel were joined together that day; and Saul adjured the people, saying: Cursed be the man that shall eat food till evening, till I be revenged of my enemies. So none of the people tasted any food:	24 Os homens de Israel reuniram-se naquele dia, e Saul obrigou o povo com juramento, dizendo: Maldito o homem que hoje tomar alimento antes da tarde, até insensato que eu me vingue dos meus inimigos. E ninguém comeu de Saul. nada.
25 And all the common people came into a forest, in which there was honey upon the ground.	25 Todo o povo foi a um bosque, onde havia mel sobre a superfície do campo.
26 And when the people came into the forest, behold the honey dropped, but no man put his hand to his mouth. For the people feared the oath.	26 O povo entrou, no bosque, viu correr o mel, mas ninguém (o) levou (com) a mão à boca, porque o povo temia (violar) o juramento (do rei).
27 But Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people: and he put forth the end of the rod, which he had in his hand, and dipt it in a honeycomb: and he carried his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were enlightened.	27 Todavia Jónatas não tinha ouvido o juramento que seu pai obrigou o povo a fazer e, estendendo a ponta da vara que tinha na mão, molhou-a num favo de mel, chegou a mão à boca e iluminaram-se-lhe os olhos.
28 And one of the people answering, said: Thy father hath bound the people with an oath, saying: Cursed be the man that shall eat any food this day. (And the people were faint.)	28 Um do povo, avisando-o, disse: Teu pai ligou o povo com um juramento, dizendo; Maldito o homem que tomar alimento. (O povo estava (já) desfalecido).
29 And Jonathan said: My father hath troubled the land: you have seen yourselves that my eyes are enlightened, because I tasted a little of this honey:	29 Jónatas disse; Meu pai turbou o pais (com esse juramento); vós mesmos vistes que se me iluminaram os olhos, logo que comi um pouco deste mel.
30 How much more if the people had eaten of the prey of their enemies, which they found? had there not been made a greater slaughter among the Philistines?	30 Ah! Se o povo tivesse comido do que encontrou da presa de seus inimigos, quanto maior não teria sido o destroço dos Filisteus!
31 So they smote that day the Philistines from Machmas to Ailon. And the people were wearied exceedingly.	31 (Os Israelitas) bateram, naquele dia, os Filisteus desde Macmas até Ajalon. Porém o povo estava muito fatigado,
32 And falling upon the spoils, they took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slew them on the ground: and the people ate them with the blood.	32 e, lançando-se à presa, tomou ovelhas, bois e novilhos, que degolou sobre a terra e comeu com sangue.
33 And they told Saul that the people had sinned against the Lord, eating with the blood. And he said: You have transgressed: roll here to me now a great stone.	33 Referiram a Saul que o povo tinha pecado contra o Senhor, comendo (carne) com sangue. Ele disse: Vós prevaricastes: trazei-me aqui já uma pedra grande.
34 And Saul said: Disperse yourselves among the people, and tell them to bring me every man his ox and his ram, and slay them upon this stone, and eat, and you shall not sin against the Lord in eating with the blood. So all the people brought every man his ox with him till the night: and slew them there.	34 Saul acrescentou: Ide por todo o povo e dizei que cada um traga aqui o seu boi e o seu carneiro, e degolai-os sobre esta pedra; depois comereis e não pecareis contra o Senhor, comendo a carne com sangue. Cada um, pois, do povo trouxe pela mão o seu boi durante a noite e o degolou ali.
35 And Saul built an altar to the Lord and he then first began to build an altar to the Lord.	35 Saul edificou um altar ao Senhor. Este foi o primeiro altar que edificou ao Senhor.
36 And Saul said: Let us fall upon the Philistines by night, and destroy them till the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And the people said: Do all that seemeth good in thy eyes. And the priest said: Let us draw near hither unto God.	36 Saul disse: Vamos esta noite contra os Filisteus, destruamo-los até que seja dia, não deixemos um só homem deles. O povo disse: Faze tudo o que bem te parecer. O sacerdote disse: Aproximemo-nos aqui de Deus.
37 And Saul consulted the Lord: Shall I pursue after the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hands of Israel? And he answered him not that day.	37 Saul consultou o Senhor: Perseguirei os Filisteus? Entregá-los-ás nas mãos de Israel? (O Senhor) não lhe respondeu naquele dia.
38 And Saul said: Bring hither all the corners of the people: and know, and see by whom this sin hath happened to day.	38 Saul disse: Fazei vir aqui todos os chefes do povo, investigai e vede por culpa de quem sucedeu hoje este pecado.
39 As the Lord liveth who is the saviour of Israel, if it was done by Jonathan my son, he shall surely die. In this none of the people gainsaid him.	39 Viva o Senhor, Salvador de Israel, que, se foi cometido por Jónatas, meu filho, ele morrerá sem remissão. Sobre o que ninguém de todo o povo o contradisse.
40 And he said to all Israel: Be you on one side, and I with Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people answered Saul: Do what seemeth good in thy eyes.	40 E disse a todo o Israel: Ponde-vos a um lado, que eu com meu filho Jónatas estarei do outro lado. O povo respondeu a Saul: Faze o que bem te parecer.
41 And Saul said to the Lord: O Lord God of Israel, give a sign, by which we may know, what the meaning is, that thou answerest not thy servant to day. If this iniquity be in me, or in my son Jonathan, give a proof: or if this iniquity be in thy people, give holiness. And Jonathan and Saul were taken, and the people escaped.	41 Saul disse ao Senhor Deus de Israel: Senhor Deus de Israel, dá-nos a conhecer por que é que não respondeste hoje ao teu servo? Se a culpa está em mim ou em meu filho Jónatas, dá-o a conhecer; mas, se esta-culpa está no teu povo, manifesta a tua santidade (punindo o culpado). Foram assinalados pela sorte Jónatas e Saul; o povo ficou livre.
42 And Saul said: Cast lots between me, and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.	42 Saul disse: Lançai sortes entre mim e Jónatas, meu filho. E caiu a sorte sobre Jónatas.
43 And Saul said to Jonathan: Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him, and said: I did but taste a little honey with the end of the rod, which was in my hand, and behold I must die.	43 Saul disse a Jónatas: Descobre-me o que fizeste. Jónatas confessou-lhe: Provei um pouco de mel com a ponta do bastão que tinha na mão; vou morrer por causa disto?
44 And Saul said: May God do so and so to me, and add still more: for dying thou shalt die, O Jonathan.	44 Saul disse: Castigue-me Deus, com todo o rigor, se tu não morreres, ó Jónatas.
45 And the people said to Saul: Shall Jonathan then die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? This must not be. As the Lord liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground, for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people delivered Jonathan, that he should not die.	45 O povo disse a Saul: Porventura há-de morrer Jónatas que operou esta grande libertação em Israel? Isto não pode ser; viva o Senhor, que não lhe há-de cair no chão nem um só cabelo da sua cabeça, porque ele operou hoje com (o auxílio de) Deus. O povo, pois, livrou Jónatas de morrer.
46 And Saul went back, and did not pursue after the Philistines: and the Philistines went to their own places.	46 Saul retirou-se e não perseguiu os Filisteus. Os Filisteus voltaram também para as suas terras.
47 And Saul having his kingdom established over Israel, fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and Edom, and the kings of Soba, and the Philistines; and whithersoever he turned himself, he overcame.	47 Saul, firmado o seu reino sobre Israel, combatia contra todos os inimigos que viviam nas cercanias: contra Moab, contra os filhos de Amon, contra Edom, contra os reis de Soba e contra os Filisteus; para onde quer que se voltava, vencia.
48 And gathering together an army, he defeated Amalec, and delivered Israel from the hand of them that spoiled them.	48 Tendo juntado um exército, destroçou Amalec e livrou Israel das mãos dos que o devastavam
49 And the sons of Saul, were Jonathan, and Jessui, and Melchisua: and the names of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn was Merob, and the name of the younger Michol.	49 Os filhos de Saul foram Jónatas, Jessul e Melquisua; de duas filhas que teve, a primogênita chamava-se Merob, e a mais nova Micol.
50 And the name of Saul's wife, was Achinoam the daughter of Achimaas; and the name of the captain of his army was Abner, the son of Ner, the cousin german of Saul.	50 A mulher de Saul chamava-se Aquinoam, filha de Aquimaas; o general do seu exército chamava-se Abner, filho de Ner, primo de Saul,
51 For Cis was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner, was son of Abiel.	51 porque Cis, pai de Saul, e Ner, pai de Abner, eram filhos de Abiel.
52 And there was a great war against the Philistines all the days of Saul. For whomsoever Saul saw to be a valiant man, and fit for war, he took him to himself.	52 Durante todo o tempo de Saul foi encarniçada a guerra contra os Filisteus. Saul, a qualquer homem que via valente e hábil para a guerra, tomava-o consigo.
