JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Bíblia Portuguesa Mundial (Brazilian Portuguese)
1And the men of Kiriath-jearim came, and fetched up the ark of the LORD, and brought it into the house of Abinadab in the hill, and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the LORD.
1Os homens de Quiriate-Jearim vieram, levaram a arca do SENHOR e a colocaram na casa de Abinadabe, na colina; e consagraram a Eleazar, seu filho, para guardar a arca do SENHOR.
2And it came to pass, from the day that the ark abode in Kiriath-jearim, that the time was long; for it was twenty years; and all the house of Israel yearned after the LORD.
2Desde o dia em que a arca ficou em Quiriate-Jearim, passou-se muito tempo — vinte anos se passaram; e toda a casa de Israel lamentava, buscando o SENHOR.
3And Samuel spoke unto all the house of Israel, saying: 'If ye do return unto the LORD with all your heart, then put away the foreign gods and the Ashtaroth from among you, and direct your hearts unto the LORD, and serve Him only; and He will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.'
3Samuel falou a toda a casa de Israel, dizendo: “Se vocês estão se voltando para o SENHOR de todo o coração, então tirem do meio de vocês os deuses estrangeiros e as imagens de Astarote, e voltem o coração para o SENHOR, e sirvam somente a ele; e ele os livrará das mãos dos filisteus.”
4Then the children of Israel did put away the Baalim and the Ashtaroth, and served the LORD only.
4Então os filhos de Israel removeram os baalins e as imagens de Astarote, e serviram somente ao SENHOR.
5And Samuel said: 'Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray for you unto the LORD.'
5Samuel disse: “Reúnam todo o Israel em Mispá, e eu orarei ao SENHOR por vocês.”
6And they gathered together to Mizpah, and drew water, and poured it out before the LORD, and fasted on that day, and said there: 'We have sinned against the LORD.' And Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpah.
6Eles se reuniram em Mispá, tiraram água e a derramaram perante o SENHOR; jejuaram naquele dia e disseram ali: “Nós pecamos contra o SENHOR.” E Samuel julgou os filhos de Israel em Mispá.
7And when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gathered together to Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.
7Quando os filisteus ouviram que os filhos de Israel estavam reunidos em Mispá, os governantes dos filisteus subiram contra Israel. Ao ouvirem isso, os filhos de Israel ficaram com medo dos filisteus.
8And the children of Israel said to Samuel: 'Cease not to cry unto the LORD our God for us, that He save us out of the hand of the Philistines.'
8Os filhos de Israel disseram a Samuel: “Não pare de clamar ao SENHOR, o nosso Deus, por nós, para que ele nos salve das mãos dos filisteus.”
9And Samuel took a sucking lamb, and offered it for a whole burnt-offering unto the LORD; and Samuel cried unto the LORD for Israel; and the LORD answered him.
9Samuel pegou um cordeiro que ainda mamava e o ofereceu como holocausto inteiro ao SENHOR. Samuel clamou ao SENHOR por Israel, e o SENHOR lhe respondeu.
10And as Samuel was offering up the burnt-offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel; but the LORD thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and discomfited them; and they were smitten down before Israel.
10Enquanto Samuel oferecia o holocausto, os filisteus se aproximaram para lutar contra Israel; mas o SENHOR trovejou com grande estrondo naquele dia contra os filisteus e os colocou em pânico; e eles foram derrotados diante de Israel.
11And the men of Israel went out of Mizpah, and pursued the Philistines, and smote them, until they came under Beth-car.
11Os homens de Israel saíram de Mispá e perseguiram os filisteus, e os feriram até chegarem abaixo de Bete-Car.
12Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and called the name of it Eben-ezer, saying: 'Hitherto hath the LORD helped us.'
12Então Samuel pegou uma pedra, colocou-a entre Mispá e Sem, e lhe deu o nome de Ebenézer, dizendo: “Até aqui o SENHOR nos ajudou.”
13So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more within the border of Israel; and the hand of the LORD was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
13Assim os filisteus foram subjugados e não voltaram a invadir o território de Israel. A mão do SENHOR esteve contra os filisteus durante todos os dias de Samuel.
14And the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even unto Gath; and the border thereof did Israel deliver out of the hand of the Philistines. And there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.
14As cidades que os filisteus haviam tomado de Israel foram devolvidas a Israel, desde Ecrom até Gate; e Israel recuperou o seu território das mãos dos filisteus. Houve paz entre Israel e os amorreus.
15And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.
15Samuel julgou a Israel todos os dias da sua vida.
16And he went from year to year in circuit to Beth-el, and Gilgal, and Mizpah; and he judged Israel in all those places.
16De ano em ano ele fazia um circuito por Betel, Gilgal e Mispá; e julgava a Israel em todos esses lugares.
17And his return was to Ramah, for there was his house; and there he judged Israel; and he built there an altar unto the LORD.
17Depois voltava para Ramá, pois a sua casa ficava lá, e ali julgava a Israel; e construiu ali um altar ao SENHOR.
