1And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight: and Israel went out to war against the Philistines, and camped by the Stone of help. And the Philistines came to Aphec,
1E a palavra de Samuel vinha a todo o Israel. Ora, Israel saiu para guerrear contra os filisteus e acampou perto de Ebenézer; e os filisteus acamparam em Afeque.
2And put their army in array against Israel. And when they had joined battle, Israel turned their backs to the Philistines, and there was slain in that fight here and there in the fields about four thousand men.
2Os filisteus formaram a linha de batalha contra Israel. Quando travaram a batalha, Israel foi derrotado pelos filisteus, que mataram cerca de quatro mil homens do exército no campo de batalha.
3And the people returned to the camp: and the ancients of Israel said: Why hath the Lord defeated us today before the Philistines? Let us fetch unto us the ark of the covenant of the Lord from Silo, and let it come in the midst of us, that it may save us from the hand of our enemies.
3Quando o povo voltou ao acampamento, os líderes de Israel perguntaram: “Por que o SENHOR nos derrotou hoje diante dos filisteus? Vamos trazer de Siló a arca da aliança do SENHOR, para que ela vá conosco e nos salve das mãos de nossos inimigos.”
4So the people sent to Silo, and they brought from thence the ark of the covenant of the Lord of hosts sitting upon the cherubims: and the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were with the ark of the covenant of God.
4Então o povo enviou homens a Siló, e trouxeram de lá a arca da aliança do SENHOR dos Exércitos, que se assenta acima dos querubins; e os dois filhos de Eli, Hofni e Fineias, estavam lá com a arca da aliança de Deus.
5And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, and the earth rang again.
5Quando a arca da aliança do SENHOR entrou no acampamento, todo o Israel deu um grito tão forte que a terra tremeu.
6And the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, and they said: What is this noise of a great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the Lord was come into the camp.
6Quando os filisteus ouviram o barulho do grito, perguntaram: “O que significa este grande grito no acampamento dos hebreus?” E souberam que a arca do SENHOR havia chegado ao acampamento.
7And the Philistines were afraid, saying: God is come into the camp. And sighing, they said:
7Os filisteus ficaram com medo e disseram: “Deus entrou no acampamento.” E acrescentaram: “Ai de nós! Pois nunca aconteceu tal coisa antes.
8Woe to us: for there was no such great joy yesterday and the day before: Woe to us. Who shall deliver us from the hand of these high gods? these are the gods that struck Egypt with all the plagues in the desert.
8Ai de nós! Quem nos livrará das mãos destes deuses poderosos? Estes são os deuses que feriram os egípcios com toda sorte de pragas no deserto.
9Take courage and behave like men, ye Philistines: lest you come to be servants to the Hebrews, as they have served you: take courage and fight.
9Sejam fortes e portem-se como homens, ó filisteus, para que não se tornem escravos dos hebreus, assim como eles têm sido escravos de vocês. Fortaleçam-se como homens e lutem!”
10So the Philistines fought, and Israel was overthrown, and every man fled to his own dwelling: and there was an exceeding great slaughter; for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.
10Os filisteus lutaram, e Israel foi derrotado, e cada homem fugiu para a sua tenda. Foi uma matança muito grande; pois caíram trinta mil homens de infantaria de Israel.
11And the ark of God was taken: and the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were slain.
11A arca de Deus foi tomada, e os dois filhos de Eli, Hofni e Fineias, foram mortos.
12And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the army, and came to Silo the same day, with his clothes rent, and his head strewed with dust.
12Um homem de Benjamim correu da linha de batalha e chegou a Siló no mesmo dia, com as roupas rasgadas e terra sobre a cabeça.
13And when he was come, Heli sat upon a stool over against the way watching. For his heart was fearful for the ark of God. And when the man was come into the city, he told it: and all the city cried out.
13Quando ele chegou, eis que Eli estava sentado na sua cadeira, à beira do caminho, vigiando, pois o seu coração tremia pela arca de Deus. Quando o homem entrou na cidade e deu a notícia, a cidade inteira começou a gritar.
14And Heli heard the noise of the cry, and he said: What meaneth the noise of this uproar? But he made haste, and came, and told Heli.
14Ao ouvir o clamor, Eli perguntou: “O que significa esse barulho de tumulto?” O homem se apressou e foi contar a Eli.
15Now Heli was ninety and eight years old, and his eyes were dim, and he could not see.
15Ora, Eli estava com noventa e oito anos de idade. Seus olhos estavam fixos, de modo que ele não podia ver.
16And he said to Heli: I am he that came from the battle, and have fled out of the field this day. And he said to him: What is there done, my son?
16O homem disse a Eli: “Eu sou o que vim da linha de batalha; fugi hoje mesmo do campo de batalha.” Eli perguntou: “Como foram as coisas, meu filho?”
17And he that brought the news answered, and said: Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has been a great slaughter of the people: moreover thy two sons, Ophni and Phinees, are dead: and the ark of God is taken.
17O mensageiro respondeu: “Israel fugiu dos filisteus, e houve também grande matança entre o povo. Além disso, os seus dois filhos, Hofni e Fineias, estão mortos, e a arca de Deus foi tomada.”
18And when he had named the ark of God, he fell from his stool backwards by the door, and broke his neck, and died. For he was an old man, and far advanced in years: and he judged Israel forty years.
18Quando ele mencionou a arca de Deus, Eli caiu da cadeira para trás, ao lado do portão; quebrou o pescoço e morreu, pois era um homem idoso e pesado. Ele havia julgado Israel durante quarenta anos.
19And his daughter in law the wife of Phinees, was big with child, and near her time: and hearing the news that the ark of God was taken, and her father in law, and her husband, were dead, she bowed herself and fell in labour: for her pains came upon her on a sudden.
19A sua nora, a mulher de Fineias, estava grávida e perto de dar à luz. Quando ela ouviu a notícia de que a arca de Deus havia sido tomada e que o seu sogro e o seu marido estavam mortos, curvou-se e deu à luz, pois as dores do parto lhe sobrevieram.
20And when she was upon the point of death, they that stood about her said to her: Fear not, for thou hast borne a son. She answered them not, nor gave heed to them.
20Por volta da hora da sua morte, as mulheres que estavam com ela lhe disseram: “Não tenha medo, pois você deu à luz um menino.” Mas ela não respondeu, nem prestou atenção.
21And she called the child Ichabod, saying: The glory is gone from Israel, because the ark of God was taken, and for her father in law, and her husband:
21Ela chamou o menino de Icabô, dizendo: “A glória se foi de Israel!”, porque a arca de Deus havia sido tomada, e por causa do seu sogro e do seu marido.
22And she said: The glory is departed from Israel, because the ark of God was taken.
22Ela disse: “A glória se foi de Israel, pois a arca de Deus foi tomada.”
