1 Samuel 13

1Saul reinou um ano; e no segundo ano do seu reinado sobre Israel,

1Saul reigned one year; and when he had reigned two years over Israel, {reigned one...: Heb. the son of one year in his reigning}

2Saul escolheu para si três mil homens de Israel; e estavam com Saul dois mil em Micmás e na montanha de Betel, e mil estavam com Jônatas em Gibeá de Benjamim; e o resto do povo despediu, cada um para sua casa.

2Saul chose him three thousand {men} of Israel; {whereof} two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in mount Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent every man to his tent.

3E Jônatas feriu a guarnição dos filisteus, que estava em Gibeá, o que os filisteus ouviram; pelo que Saul tocou a trombeta por toda a terra, dizendo: Ouçam os hebreus.

3And Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines that {was} in Geba, and the Philistines heard {of it}. And Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear. {Geba: or, the hill}

4Então todo o Israel ouviu dizer: Saul feriu a guarnição dos filisteus, e também Israel se fez abominável aos filisteus. Então o povo foi convocado para junto de Saul em Gilgal.

4And all Israel heard say {that} Saul had smitten a garrison of the Philistines, and {that} Israel also was had in abomination with the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal. {was...: Heb. did stink}

5E os filisteus se ajuntaram para pelejar contra Israel, trinta mil carros, e seis mil cavaleiros, e povo em multidão como a areia que está à beira do mar; e subiram, e se acamparam em Micmás, ao oriente de Bete-Áven.

5And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which {is} on the sea shore in multitude: and they came up, and pitched in Michmash, eastward from Bethaven.

6Vendo, pois, os homens de Israel que estavam em apuros (porque o povo estava angustiado), o povo se escondeu pelas cavernas, e pelos espinhais, e pelos penhascos, e pelas fortificações, e pelas covas.

6When the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, (for the people were distressed,) then the people did hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.

7E alguns dos hebreus passaram o Jordão para a terra de Gade e Gileade; e, estando Saul ainda em Gilgal, todo o povo ia atrás dele tremendo.

7And {some of} the Hebrews went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. As for Saul, he {was} yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling. {followed...: Heb. trembled after him}

8E esperou Saul sete dias, até ao tempo que Samuel determinara; não vindo, porém, Samuel a Gilgal, o povo se dispersava dele.

8And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel {had appointed}: but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.

9Então disse Saul: Trazei-me aqui um holocausto, e ofertas pacíficas. E ofereceu o holocausto.

9And Saul said, Bring hither a burnt offering to me, and peace offerings. And he offered the burnt offering.

10E sucedeu que, acabando ele de oferecer o holocausto, eis que Samuel chegou; e Saul lhe saiu ao encontro, para o saudar.

10And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might salute him. {salute: Heb. bless}

11Então disse Samuel: Que fizeste? Disse Saul: Porquanto via que o povo se espalhava de mim, e tu não vinhas nos dias aprazados, e os filisteus já se tinham ajuntado em Micmás,

11And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and {that} thou camest not within the days appointed, and {that} the Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash;

12Eu disse: Agora descerão os filisteus sobre mim a Gilgal, e ainda à face do Senhor não orei; e constrangi-me, e ofereci holocausto.

12Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto the LORD: I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering. {made...: Heb. intreated the face}

13Então disse Samuel a Saul: Procedeste nesciamente, e não guardaste o mandamento que o Senhor teu Deus te ordenou; porque agora o Senhor teria confirmado o teu reino sobre Israel para sempre;

13And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the LORD thy God, which he commanded thee: for now would the LORD have established thy kingdom upon Israel for ever.

14Porém agora não subsistirá o teu reino; já tem buscado o Senhor para si um homem segundo o seu coração, e já lhe tem ordenado o Senhor, que seja capitão sobre o seu povo, porquanto não guardaste o que o Senhor te ordenou.

14But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the LORD hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the LORD hath commanded him {to be} captain over his people, because thou hast not kept {that} which the LORD commanded thee.

15Então se levantou Samuel, e subiu de Gilgal a Gibeá de Benjamim; e Saul contou o povo que se achava com ele, uns seiscentos homens.

15And Samuel arose, and gat him up from Gilgal unto Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people {that were} present with him, about six hundred men. {present: Heb. found}

16E Saul e Jônatas, seu filho, e o povo que se achou com eles, ficaram em Gibeá de Benjamim; porém os filisteus se acamparam em Micmás.

16And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people {that were} present with them, abode in Gibeah of Benjamin: but the Philistines encamped in Michmash. {present: Heb. found} {Gibeah: Heb. Geba}

17E os saqueadores saíram do campo dos filisteus em três companhias; uma das companhias foi pelo caminho de Ofra à terra de Sual.

17And the spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned unto the way {that leadeth to} Ophrah, unto the land of Shual:

18Outra companhia seguiu pelo caminho de Bete-Horom, e a outra companhia foi pelo caminho do termo que dá para o vale Zeboim na direção do deserto.

18And another company turned the way {to} Bethhoron: and another company turned {to} the way of the border that looketh to the valley of Zeboim toward the wilderness.

19E em toda a terra de Israel nem um ferreiro se achava, porque os filisteus tinham dito: Para que os hebreus não façam espada nem lança.

19Now there was no smith found throughout all the land of Israel: for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make {them} swords or spears:

20Por isso todo o Israel tinha que descer aos filisteus para amolar cada um a sua relha, e a sua enxada, e o seu machado, e o seu sacho.

20But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his share, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock.

21Tinham porém limas para os seus sachos, e para as suas enxadas, e para as forquilhas de três dentes, e para os machados, e para consertar as aguilhadas.

21Yet they had a file for the mattocks, and for the coulters, and for the forks, and for the axes, and to sharpen the goads. {a file: Heb. a file with mouths, or Heb. a pim, a third of a shekel} {sharpen: Heb. set}

22E sucedeu que, no dia da peleja, não se achou nem espada nem lança na mão de todo o povo que estava com Saul e com Jônatas; porém acharam-se com Saul e com Jônatas seu filho.

22So it came to pass in the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that {were} with Saul and Jonathan: but with Saul and with Jonathan his son was there found.

23E saiu a guarnição dos filisteus ao desfiladeiro de Micmás.

23And the garrison of the Philistines went out to the passage of Michmash. {garrison: or, standing camp}
