2 Samuel 4

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SAGRADA 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.
