I Chronicles 19

Aconteceu, depois disto, que Naás, rei dos amonitas, morreu; e seu filho reinou em seu lugar.

Now it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.

Então disse Davi: usarei de benevolência para com Hanum, filho de Naás, porque seu pai usou de benevolência para comigo. Pelo que Davi enviou mensageiros para o consolarem acerca de seu pai. Mas quando os servos de Davi chegaram à terra dos amonitas, a Hanum, para o consolarem,

And David said, I will shew kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father shewed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.

disseram os príncipes dos amonitas a Hanum: Pensas que Davi quer honrar a teu pai, porque te mandou consoladores? Não vieram ter contigo os seus servos a esquadrinhar, a transtornar e a espiar a terra?

But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? are not his servants come unto thee for to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?

Pelo que Hanum tomou os servos de Davi, raspou-lhes a barba, e lhes cortou as vestes pelo meio até o alto das coxas, e os despediu.

Wherefore Hanun took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the midst hard by their buttocks, and sent them away.

Então foram alguns e avisaram a Davi acerca desses homens; pelo que ele mandou mensageiros ao seu encontro, pois estavam sobremaneira envergonhados. Disse o rei: Ficai em Jericó até que vos torne a crescer a barba, e então voltai.

Then there went certain, and told David how the men were served. And he sent to meet them: for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.

Vendo os amonitas que se tinham feito odiosos para com Davi, Hanum e os amonitas enviaram mil talentos de prata, para alugarem para si carros e cavaleiros de Mesopotâmia, de Arã-Maacá e de Zobá.

And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria–maachah, and out of Zobah.

E alugaram para si trinta e dois mil carros e o rei de Maacá com a sua gente, os quais vieram e se acamparam diante de Medeba; também os amonitas se ajuntaram das suas cidades e vieram para a guerra.

So they hired thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah and his people; who came and pitched before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.

Davi, quando soube disto, enviou Joabe e todo o exército de homens valentes.

And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.

Os amonitas saíram e ordenaram a batalha à porta da cidade; porém os reis que tinham vindo se puseram à parte no campo.

And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array before the gate of the city: and the kings that were come were by themselves in the field.

Ora, quando Joabe viu que a batalha estava ordenada contra ele pela frente e pela retaguarda, escolheu os melhores dentre os homens de Israel, e os pôs em ordem contra os sirios;

Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose out of all the choice of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians.

e o resto do povo entregou na mão de Abisai, seu irmão; e eles se puseram em ordem de batalha contra os amonitas.

And the rest of the people he delivered unto the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon.

E disse Joabe: Se os sírios forem mais fortes do que eu, tu virás socorrer-me; e, se os amonitas forem mais fortes do que tu, então eu te socorrerei a ti.

And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me: but if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.

Esforça-te, e pelejemos varonilmente pelo nosso povo e pelas cidades do nosso Deus; e faça o Senhor o que bem lhe parecer.

Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people, and for the cities of our God: and let the LORD do that which is good in his sight.

Então se chegou Joabe, e o povo que estava com ele, diante dos sírios, para a batalha; e estes fugiram de diante dele.

So Joab and the people that were with him drew nigh before the Syrians unto the battle; and they fled before him.

Vendo, pois, os amonitas que os sírios tinham fugido, fugiram eles também de diante de Abisai, irmão de Joabe, e entraram na cidade. Então Joabe voltou para Jerusalém.

And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.

Ora, vendo-se os sírios derrotados diante de Israel, enviaram mensageiros, e fizeram sair os sírios que habitavam além do rio; e tinham por comandante Sofaque, chefe do exército de Hadadezer.

And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them.

Avisado disto, Davi ajuntou todo o Israel, passou o Jordão e, indo ao encontro deles, ordenou contra eles a batalha. Tendo Davi ordenado a batalha contra os sírios, pelejaram estes contra ele.

And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.

Mas os sírios fugiram de diante de Israel; e Davi matou deles os homens de sete mil carros, e quarenta mil homens da infantaria; matou também Sofaque, chefe do exército.

But the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand men which fought in chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.

Vendo, pois, os servos de Hadadezer que tinham sido derrotados diante de Israel, fizeram paz cem Davi, e e serviram; e os sírios nunca mais quiseram socorrer os amonitas.

And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and became his servants: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.
