JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1Estas são as nações que o SENHOR deixou, para provar Israel por meio delas, a saber, todos os que não haviam conhecido todas as guerras de Canaã;
1Now these are the nations which the LORD left, to prove Israel by them, even as many as had not known all the wars of Canaan;
2somente para que as gerações dos filhos de Israel pudessem conhecê-la, para lhes ensinar a guerra, pelo menos àqueles que nada sabiam disso antes:
2only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as beforetime knew nothing thereof;
3os cinco governantes dos filisteus, todos os cananeus, os sidônios e os heveus que habitavam no monte Líbano, desde o monte Baal-Hermom até a entrada de Hamate.
3namely, the five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Zidonians, and the Hivites that dwelt in mount Lebanon, from mount Baal-hermon unto the entrance of Hamath.
4Eles foram deixados para provar Israel, para saber se dariam ouvidos aos mandamentos do SENHOR, que ele ordenou a seus pais por intermédio de Moisés.
4And they were there, to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would hearken unto the commandments of the LORD, which He commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
5Os filhos de Israel viveram entre os cananeus, os hititas, os amorreus, os ferezeus, os heveus e os jebuseus.
5And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites;
6Eles tomaram as filhas deles para serem suas mulheres, deram as suas próprias filhas aos filhos deles, e serviram aos seus deuses.
6and they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their own daughters to their sons, and served their gods.
7Os filhos de Israel fizeram o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR, esqueceram-se do SENHOR seu Deus, e serviram aos baalins e aos postes ídolos.
7And the children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgot the LORD their God, and served the Baalim and the Asheroth.
8Portanto, a ira do SENHOR se acendeu contra Israel, e ele os vendeu para a mão de Cusã-Risataim, rei da Mesopotâmia; e os filhos de Israel serviram a Cusã-Risataim por oito anos.
8Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He gave them over into the hand of Cushan-rishathaim king of Aram-naharaim; and the children of Israel served Cushan-rishathaim eight years.
9Quando os filhos de Israel clamaram ao SENHOR, o SENHOR levantou um libertador para os filhos de Israel, que os salvou: Otniel, filho de Quenaz, irmão mais novo de Calebe.
9And when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised up a saviour to the children of Israel, who saved them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother.
10O Espírito do SENHOR veio sobre ele, e ele julgou a Israel; saiu à guerra, e o SENHOR entregou Cusã-Risataim, rei da Mesopotâmia, em sua mão. A sua mão prevaleceu contra Cusã-Risataim.
10And the spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel; and he went out to war, and the LORD delivered Cushan-rishathaim king of Aram into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Cushan-rishathaim.
11A terra teve descanso por quarenta anos, e então Otniel, filho de Quenaz, morreu.
11And the land had rest forty years. And Othniel the son of Kenaz died.
12Os filhos de Israel voltaram a fazer o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR, e o SENHOR fortaleceu Eglom, rei de Moabe, contra Israel, porque haviam feito o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR.
12And the children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
13Ele reuniu os filhos de Amom e de Amaleque; marchou, feriu Israel e tomou posse da cidade das palmeiras.
13And he gathered unto him the children of Ammon and Amalek; and he went and smote Israel, and they possessed the city of palm-trees.
14Os filhos de Israel serviram a Eglom, rei de Moabe, por dezoito anos.
14And the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.
15Mas quando os filhos de Israel clamaram ao SENHOR, o SENHOR lhes levantou um libertador: Eúde, filho de Gera, o benjamita, homem canhoto. Os filhos de Israel enviaram por meio dele o tributo a Eglom, rei de Moabe.
15But when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised them up a saviour, Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a man left-handed; and the children of Israel sent a present by him unto Eglon the king of Moab.
16Eúde fez para si uma espada de dois gumes, de um côvado de comprimento; e a cingiu debaixo de sua roupa, sobre a coxa direita.
16And Ehud made him a sword which had two edges, of a cubit length; and he girded it under his raiment upon his right thigh.
17Ele ofereceu o tributo a Eglom, rei de Moabe. Ora, Eglom era um homem muito gordo.
17And he offered the present unto Eglon king of Moab — now Eglon was a very fat man.
18Quando Eúde terminou de entregar o tributo, despediu o povo que o havia carregado.
18And when he had made an end of offering the present, he sent away the people that bore the present.
19Mas ele mesmo voltou dos ídolos de pedra que estavam perto de Gilgal, e disse: “Tenho uma mensagem secreta para o senhor, ó rei.” O rei disse: “Silêncio!” Todos os que estavam ao redor dele saíram.
19But he himself turned back from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said: 'I have a secret errand unto thee, O king.' And he said: 'Keep silence.' And all that stood by him went out from him.
20Eúde se aproximou dele; e o rei estava sentado sozinho em seu aposento fresco na sala superior. Eúde disse: “Tenho uma mensagem de Deus para o senhor.” E o rei se levantou da cadeira.
20And Ehud came unto him; and he was sitting by himself alone in his cool upper chamber. And Ehud said: 'I have a message from God unto thee.' And he arose out of his seat.
21Eúde estendeu a mão esquerda, puxou a espada da coxa direita e a cravou no ventre dele.
21And Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly.
22O cabo também entrou após a lâmina; e a gordura se fechou sobre a lâmina, pois ele não tirou a espada do ventre dele; e as fezes saíram.
22And the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed upon the blade, for he drew not the sword out of his belly; and it came out behind.
23Então Eúde saiu para a varanda, fechou as portas da sala superior e as trancou.
23Then Ehud went forth into the porch, and shut the doors of the upper chamber upon him, and locked them.
24Depois que ele saiu, os servos do rei vieram e viram que as portas da sala superior estavam trancadas. Eles disseram: “Certamente ele está cobrindo os seus pés no aposento fresco.”
24Now when he was gone out, his servants came; and they saw, and, behold, the doors of the upper chamber were locked; and they said: 'Surely he is covering his feet in the cabinet of the cool chamber.'
25Esperaram até ficarem constrangidos; e eis que ele não abria as portas da sala superior. Portanto, pegaram a chave e as abriram, e eis que o seu senhor estava caído morto no chão.
25And they tarried till they were ashamed; and, behold, he opened not the doors of the upper chamber; therefore they took the key, and opened them; and, behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth.
26Eúde escapou enquanto eles esperavam, passou pelos ídolos de pedra e fugiu para Seirá.
26And Ehud escaped while they lingered, having passed beyond the quarries, and escaped unto Seirah.
27Quando chegou, tocou a trombeta na região montanhosa de Efraim; e os filhos de Israel desceram com ele das montanhas, e ele os liderou.
27And it came to pass, when he was come, that he blew a horn in the hill-country of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the hill-country, and he before them.
28Ele lhes disse: “Sigam-me; porque o SENHOR entregou os seus inimigos, os moabitas, em suas mãos.” Eles o seguiram, tomaram os vaus do Jordão que levavam a Moabe, e não deixaram nenhum homem passar.
28And he said unto them: 'Follow after me; for the LORD hath delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand.' And they went down after him, and took the fords of the Jordan against the Moabites, and suffered not a man to pass over.
29Feriram naquele tempo cerca de dez mil homens de Moabe, todos homens fortes e valentes. Nenhum homem escapou.
29And they smote of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, every lusty man, and every man of valour; and there escaped not a man.
30Assim, Moabe foi subjugado naquele dia sob a mão de Israel. E a terra teve descanso por oitenta anos.
30So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest fourscore years.
31Depois dele foi Sangar, filho de Anate, que feriu seiscentos homens dos filisteus com uma aguilhada de bois. Ele também salvou Israel.
31And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who smote of the Philistines six hundred men with an ox-goad; and he also saved Israel.
