1 Reis 3
The Book of Mormon (BOM) vs NVT
1 AND now it came to pass that in the *sixteenth year from the coming of Christ, Lachoneus, the governor of the land, received an epistle from the leader and the governor of this band of robbers; and these were the words which were written, saying:
1 Salomão fez um acordo com o faraó, rei do Egito, e se casou com uma das filhas dele. Trouxe-a para morar na Cidade de Davi até terminar a construção do palácio real, do templo do S enhor e do muro ao redor de Jerusalém.
2 Lachoneus, most noble and chief governor of the land, behold, I write this epistle unto you, and do give unto you exceedingly great praise because of your firmness, and also the firmness of your people, in maintaining that which ye suppose to be your right and liberty; yea, ye do stand well, as if ye were supported by the hand of a god, in the defence of your liberty, and your property, and your country, or that which ye do call so.
2 Nessa época, o povo de Israel oferecia sacrifícios nos altares das colinas de suas regiões, pois ainda não havia sido construído um templo em honra ao nome do S enhor .
3 And it seemeth a pity unto me, most noble Lachoneus, that ye should be so foolish and vain as to suppose that ye can stand against so many brave men who are at my command, who do now at this time stand in their arms, and do await with great anxiety for the word-Go down upon the Nephites and destroy them.
3 Salomão amava o S enhor , seguindo os decretos de seu pai, Davi, exceto pelo fato de oferecer sacrifícios e queimar incenso nos altares das colinas.
4 And I, knowing of their unconquerable spirit, having proved them in the field of battle, and knowing of their everlasting hatred towards you because of the many wrongs which ye have done unto them, therefore if they should come down against you they would visit you with utter destruction.
4 O lugar de adoração mais importante ficava em Gibeom, por isso o rei Salomão foi para lá e ofereceu mil holocaustos.
5 Therefore I have written this epistle, sealing it with mine own hand, feeling for your welfare, because of your firmness in that which ye believe to be right, and your noble spirit in the field of battle.
5 Naquela noite, o S enhor apareceu a Salomão num sonho e lhe disse: “Peça o que quiser, e eu lhe darei”.
6 Therefore I write unto you, desiring that ye would yield up unto this my people, your cities, your lands, and your possessions, rather than that they should visit you with the sword and that destruction should come upon you.
6 Salomão respondeu: “Tu mostraste grande amor leal ao teu servo, meu pai, Davi, pois ele foi fiel, justo e verdadeiro diante de ti. Agora, continuaste a mostrar teu grande amor leal dando-lhe um filho para sentar-se em seu trono.
7 Or in other words, yield yourselves up unto us, and unite with us and become acquainted with our secret works, and become our brethren that ye may be like unto us-not our slaves, but our brethren and partners of all our substance.
7 “Agora, ó S enhor , meu Deus, tu me fizeste reinar em lugar de meu pai, Davi, mas sou como uma criança pequena que não sabe o que fazer.
8 And behold, I swear unto you, if ye will do this, with an oath, ye shall not be destroyed; but if ye will not do this, I swear unto you with an oath, that on the morrow month I will command that my armies shall come down against you, and they shall not stay their hand and shall spare not, but shall slay you, and shall let fall the sword upon you even until ye shall become extinct.
8 Aqui estou, no meio do teu povo escolhido, uma nação tão grande e numerosa que nem se pode contar!
9 And behold, I am Giddianhi; and I am the governor of this the secret society of Gadianton; which society and the works thereof I know to be good; and they are of ancient date and they have been handed down unto us.
9 Dá a teu servo um coração compreensivo, para que eu possa governar bem o teu povo e saber a diferença entre o certo e o errado. Pois quem é capaz de governar sozinho este teu grande povo?”.
10 And I write this epistle unto you, Lachoneus, and I hope that ye will deliver up your lands and your possessions, without the shedding of blood, that this my people may recover their rights and government, who have dissented away from you because of your wickedness in retaining from them their rights of government, and except ye do this, I will avenge their wrongs. I am Giddianhi.
10 O Senhor se agradou do pedido de Salomão.
11 And now it came to pass when Lachoneus received this epistle he was exceedingly astonished, because of the boldness of Giddianhi demanding the possession of the land of the Nephites, and also of threatening the people and avenging the wrongs of those that had received no wrong, save it were they had wronged themselves by dissenting away unto those wicked and abominable robbers.
11 Por isso, Deus respondeu: “Uma vez que você pediu sabedoria para governar meu povo com justiça, e não vida longa, nem riqueza, nem a morte de seus inimigos,
12 Now behold, this Lachoneus, the governor, was a just man, and could not be frightened by the demands and the threatenings of a robber; therefore he did not hearken to the epistle of Giddianhi, the governor of the robbers, but he did cause that his people should cry unto the Lord for strength against the time that the robbers should come down against them.
12 atenderei a seu pedido. Eu lhe darei um coração sábio e compassivo, como ninguém teve nem jamais terá.
13 Yea, he sent a proclamation among all the people, that they should gather together their women, and their children, their flocks and their herds, and all their substance, save it were their land, unto one place.
13 Também lhe darei o que não pediu: riquezas e fama. Nenhum outro rei em todo o mundo se comparará a você pelo resto de sua vida.
14 And he caused that fortifications should be built round about them, and the strength thereof should be exceedingly great. And he caused that armies, both of the Nephites and of the Lamanites, or of all them who were numbered among the Nephites, should be placed as guards round about to watch them, and to guard them from the robbers day and night.
14 E, se você me seguir e obedecer a meus decretos e mandamentos, como fez seu pai, Davi, eu lhe darei vida longa”.
15 Yea, he said unto them: As the Lord liveth, except ye repent of all your iniquities, and cry unto the Lord, ye will in nowise be delivered out of the hands of those Gadianton robbers.
15 Então Salomão acordou e percebeu que tinha sido um sonho. Voltou a Jerusalém e se colocou diante da arca da aliança do S enhor , onde apresentou holocaustos e ofertas de paz. Depois, ofereceu um grande banquete a todos os seus oficiais.
16 And so great and marvelous were the words and prophecies of Lachoneus that they did cause fear to come upon all the people; and they did exert themselves in their might to do according to the words of Lachoneus.
16 Algum tempo depois, duas prostitutas compareceram diante do rei para resolver uma questão.
17 And it came to pass that Lachoneus did appoint chief captains over all the armies of the Nephites, to command them at the time that the robbers should come down out of the wilderness against them.
17 Disse uma delas: “Por favor, meu senhor, esta mulher e eu moramos na mesma casa. Eu dei à luz um filho quando ela estava comigo na casa.
18 Now the chiefest among all the chief captains and the great commander of all the armies of the Nephites was appointed, and his name was Gidgiddoni.
18 Três dias depois, esta mulher também deu à luz um filho. Estávamos só nós duas na casa; não havia mais ninguém ali.
19 Now it was the custom among all the Nephites to appoint for their chief captains, (save it were in their times of wickedness) some one that had the spirit of revelation and also prophecy; therefore, this Gidgiddoni was a great prophet among them, as also was the chief judge.
19 “O bebê dela morreu durante a noite, porque ela rolou sobre ele enquanto dormia.
20 Now the people said unto Gidgiddoni: Pray unto the Lord, and let us go up upon the mountains and into the wilderness, that we may fall upon the robbers and destroy them in their own lands.
20 Então ela se levantou de noite, tirou meu filho do meu lado enquanto eu dormia e o pôs para dormir ao lado dela. Depois, colocou o filho dela, que estava morto, em meus braços.
21 But Gidgiddoni saith unto them: The Lord forbid; for if we should go up against them the Lord would deliver us into their hands; therefore we will prepare ourselves in the center of our lands, and we will gather all our armies together, and we will not go against them, but we will wait till they shall come against us; therefore as the Lord liveth, if we do this he will deliver them into our hands.
21 De manhã, bem cedo, quando fui amamentar meu filho, ele estava morto! Quando o observei mais de perto, na claridade do dia, vi que não era meu”.
22 And it came to pass in the *seventeenth year, in the latter end of the year, the proclamation of Lachoneus had gone forth throughout all the face of the land, and they had taken their horses, and their chariots, and their cattle, and all their flocks, and their herds, and their grain, and all their substance, and did march forth by thousands and by tens of thousands, until they had all gone forth to the place which had been appointed that they should gather themselves together, to defend themselves against their enemies.
22 “Não!”, interrompeu a outra mulher. “O filho morto era seu, e o vivo é meu!” “Não!”, disse a primeira mulher. “O filho vivo é meu, e o morto era seu!” E assim elas discutiram diante do rei.
23 And the land which was appointed was the land of Zarahemla, and the land which was between the land Zarahemla and the land Bountiful, yea, to the line which was between the land Bountiful and the land Desolation.
23 Então o rei disse: “Vamos esclarecer as coisas. As duas afirmam que o filho vivo é seu, e cada uma diz que o morto é da outra.
24 And there were a great many thousand people who were called Nephites, who did gather themselves together in this land. Now Lachoneus did cause that they should gather themselves together in the land southward, because of the great curse which was upon the land northward.
24 Pois bem, tragam-me uma espada”. E trouxeram uma espada para o rei.
25 And they did fortify themselves against their enemies; and they did dwell in one land, and in one body, and they did fear the words which had been spoken by Lachoneus, insomuch that they did repent of all their sins; and they did put up their prayers unto the Lord their God, that he would deliver them in the time that their enemies should come down against them to battle.
25 Ele disse: “Cortem a criança viva ao meio e deem metade a uma mulher e metade à outra!”.
26 And they were exceedingly sorrowful because of their enemies. And Gidgiddoni did cause that they should make weapons of war of every kind, and they should be strong with armor, and with shields, and with bucklers, after the manner of his instruction.
26 Então, por causa de seu amor pelo menino, a verdadeira mãe gritou: “Não, meu senhor! Dê o menino a ela. Por favor, não o mate!”. A outra mulher, porém, disse: “Muito bem, ele não será nem meu nem seu. Dividam a criança ao meio!”.
27 — ausente —
27 Então o rei disse: “Não matem o bebê. Deem o menino à mulher que deseja que ele viva, pois ela é a mãe”.
28 — ausente —
28 Quando todo o Israel soube da decisão do rei, teve grande respeito por ele, pois viu a sabedoria que Deus lhe tinha dado para fazer justiça.
