DOUAI-RHEIMSSAGRADA BIBLIA
1 And Isboseth the son of Saul heard that Abner was slain in Hebron: and his hands were weakened, and all Israel was troubled.1 Quando o filho de Saul soube da morte de Abner, em Hebron, perdeu o ânimo e todo o Israel ficou consternado.
2 Now the son of Saul had two men captains of his bands, the name of the one was Baana, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Remmon a Berothite of the children of Benjamin: for Beroth also was reckoned in Benjamin.2 Ora, tinha ele a seu serviço dois chefes de bando, um chamado Baana e o outro Recab, ambos filhos de Remon de Berot, benjaminitas. {Porque Berot também fora contada entre os benjaminitas,
3 And the Berothites fled into Gethaim, and were sojourners there until that time.3 embora seus habitantes se tenham refugiado em Getaim, onde residem até hoje.}
4 And Jonathan the son of Saul bad a son that was lame of his feet: for he was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan from Jezrahel. And his nurse took him up and fled: and as she made haste to flee, he fell and became lame: and his name was Miphiboseth.4 Jônatas, filho de Saul, tinha também um filho paralítico dos dois pés, o qual tinha cinco anos quando chegou de Jezrael a notícia da morte de Saul e de Jônatas. Sua ama fugiu levando-o consigo, mas, na precipitação da fuga, o menino caiu e ficou manco. Chamava-se Mifiboset.
5 And the sons of Remmon the Berothite, Rechab and Baana coming, went into the house of Isboseth in the heat of the day: and he was sleeping upon his bed at noon. And the doorkeeper of the house, who was cleansing wheat, was fallen asleep.5 Os filhos de Remon de Berot partiram no maior calor do dia e foram à casa de Isboset, que estava dormindo a sesta.
6 And they entered into the house secretly taking ears of corn, and Rechab and Baana his brother stabbed him in the groin, and fled away.6 Penetraram na casa sob o pretexto de buscar trigo e feriram-no no ventre. Recab e seu irmão Baana conseguiram entrar furtivamente
7 For when they came into the house, be was sleeping upon his bed in a parlour, and they struck him and killed him: and taking away his head they went off by the way of the wilderness, walking all night.7 e, tendo penetrado na casa, onde Isboset repousava no seu leito, no quarto de dormir, feriram-no de morte e cortaram-lhe a cabeça. Tomaram-na depois consigo e andaram toda a noite pelo caminho da planície.
8 And they brought the head of Isboseth to David to Hebron: and they said to the king: Behold the head of Isboseth the son of Saul thy enemy who sought thy life: and the Lord hath revenged my lord the king this day of Saul, and of his seed.8 E levaram a cabeça de Isboset a Davi, em Hebron. Eis aqui, disseram-lhe, a cabeça de Isboset, filho de Saul, teu inimigo que queria matar-te. O Senhor vingou hoje o rei, meu senhor, de Saul e de sua raça.
9 But David answered Rechab, and Baana his brother, the sons of Remmon the Berothite, and said to them: As the Lord liveth, who hath delivered my soul out of all distress,9 Mas Davi respondeu a Recab e ao seu irmão Baana, filhos de Remon de Berot: Pela vida de Deus, que me salvou de todos os perigos!
10 The man that told me, and said: Saul is dead, who thought he brought good tidings, I apprehended, and slew him in Siceleg, who should have been rewarded for his news.10 O homem que me veio anunciar a morte de Saul, cuidando trazer-me uma boa notícia, tomei-o e matei-o em Siceleg, em recompensa de sua boa mensagem.
11 How much more now when wicked men have slain an innocent man in his own house, upon his bed, shall I not require his blood at your hand, and take you away from the earth?11 Quanto mais agora a homens celerados que mataram um inocente dentro de sua casa, em seu leito, não vos pedirei eu conta de seu sangue, e não vos farei desaparecer da terra?
12 And David commanded his servants and they slew them: and cutting off their hands and feet, hanged them up over the pool in Hebron: but the head of Isboseth they took and buried in the sepulchre of Abner in Hebron.12 Davi ordenou aos seus homens que os matassem. Cortaram-lhes as mãos e os pés e penduraram-nos junto da piscina de Hebron. A cabeça de Isboset foi recolhida e depositada no túmulo de Abner, em Hebron.
