1 Samuel 17
The Book of Mormon (BOM) vs NVI
1 AND now it came to pass that as Alma was journeying from the land of Gideon southward, away to the land of Manti, behold, to his astonishment, he met with the sons of Mosiah journeying towards the land of Zarahemla.
1 Os filisteus juntaram suas forças para a guerra e reuniram-se em Socó de Judá. E acamparam em Efes-Damim, entre Socó e Azeca.
2 Now these sons of Mosiah were with Alma at the time the angel first appeared unto him; therefore Alma did rejoice exceedingly to see his brethren; and what added more to his joy, they were still his brethren in the Lord; yea, and they had waxed strong in the knowledge of the truth; for they were men of a sound understanding and they had searched the scriptures diligently, that they might know the word of God.
2 Saul e os israelitas reuniram-se e acamparam no vale de Elá, posicionando-se em linha de batalha para enfrentar os filisteus.
3 But this is not all; they had given themselves to much prayer, and fasting; therefore they had the spirit of prophecy, and the spirit of revelation, and when they taught, they taught with power and authority of God.
3 Os filisteus ocuparam uma colina e os israelitas outra, estando o vale entre eles.
4 And they had been teaching the word of God *for the space of fourteen years among the Lamanites, having had much success in bringing many to the knowledge of the truth; yea, by the power of their words many were brought before the altar of God, to call on his name and confess their sins before him.
4 Um guerreiro chamado Golias, que era de Gate, veio do acampamento filisteu. Tinha dois metros e noventa centímetros de altura.
5 Now these are the circumstances which attended them in their journeyings, for they had many afflictions; they did suffer much, both in body and in mind, such as hunger, thirst and fatigue, and also much labor in the spirit.
5 Ele usava um capacete de bronze e vestia uma couraça de escamas de bronze que pesava sessenta quilos;
6 Now these were their journeyings: Having taken leave of their father, Mosiah, in the first year of the judges; having refused the kingdom which their father was desirous to confer upon them, and also this was the minds of the people;
6 nas pernas usava caneleiras de bronze e tinha um dardo de bronze pendurado nas costas.
7 Nevertheless they departed out of the land of Zarahemla, and took their swords, and their spears, and their bows, and their arrows, and their slings; and this they did that they might provide food for themselves while in the wilderness.
7 A haste de sua lança era parecida com uma lançadeira de tecelão, e sua ponta de ferro pesava sete quilos e duzentos gramas. Seu escudeiro ia à frente dele.
8 And thus they departed into the wilderness with their numbers which they had selected, to go up to the land of Nephi, to preach the word of God unto the Lamanites.
8 Golias parou e gritou às tropas de Israel: "Por que vocês estão se posicionando para a batalha? Não sou eu um filisteu, e vocês os servos de Saul? Escolham um homem para lutar comigo.
9 And it came to pass that they journeyed many days in the wilderness, and they fasted much and prayed much that the Lord would grant unto them a portion of his Spirit to go with them, and abide with them, that they might be an instrument in the hands of God to bring, if it were possible, their brethren, the Lamanites, to the knowledge of the truth, to the knowledge of the baseness of the traditions of their fathers, which were not correct.
9 Se ele puder lutar e matar-me, nós seremos seus escravos; todavia, se eu o vencer e o matar, vocês serão nossos escravos e nos servirão".
10 And it came to pass that the Lord did visit them with his Spirit, and said unto them: Be comforted. And they were comforted.
10 E acrescentou: "Eu desafio hoje as tropas de Israel! Mandem-me um homem para lutar sozinho comigo".
11 And the Lord said unto them also: Go forth among the Lamanites, thy brethren, and establish my word; yet ye shall be patient in long-suffering and afflictions, that ye may show forth good examples unto them in me, and I will make an instrument of thee in my hands unto the salvation of many souls.
11 Ao ouvirem as palavras do filisteu, Saul e todos os israelitas ficaram atônitos e apavorados.
12 And it came to pass that the hearts of the sons of Mosiah, and also those who were with them, took courage to go forth unto the Lamanites to declare unto them the word of God.
12 Davi era filho de um efrateu, de Belém de Judá, chamado Jessé. Este tinha oito filhos e já era idoso na época de Saul.
13 And it came to pass when they had arrived in the borders of the land of the Lamanites, that they separated themselves and departed one from another, trusting in the Lord that they should meet again at the close of their harvest; for they supposed that great was the work which they had undertaken.
13 Os três filhos mais velhos de Jessé tinham ido para a guerra com Saul: Eliabe, o mais velho, Abinadabe, o segundo e Samá, o terceiro.
14 And assuredly it was great, for they had undertaken to preach the word of God to a wild and a hardened and a ferocious people; a people who delighted in murdering the Nephites, and robbing and plundering them; and their hearts were set upon riches, or upon gold and silver, and precious stones; yet they sought to obtain these things by murdering and plundering, that they might not labor for them with their own hands.
14 Davi era o caçula. Os três mais velhos seguiram Saul,
15 Thus they were a very indolent people, many of whom did worship idols, and the curse of God had fallen upon them because of the traditions of their fathers; notwithstanding the promises of the Lord were extended unto them on the conditions of repentance.
15 mas Davi ia ao acampamento de Saul e voltava para apascentar as ovelhas de seu pai, em Belém.
16 Therefore, this was the cause for which the sons of Mosiah had undertaken the work, that perhaps they might bring them unto repentance; that perhaps they might bring them to know of the plan of redemption.
16 Durante quarenta dias o filisteu aproximava-se, de manhã e de tarde, e tomava posição.
17 Therefore they separated themselves one from another, and went forth among them, every man alone, according to the word and power of God which was given unto him.
17 Nessa ocasião Jessé disse a seu filho Davi: "Pegue uma arroba de grãos tostados e dez pães e leve-os rapidamente para seus irmãos no acampamento.
18 Now Ammon being the chief among them, or rather he did administer unto them, and he departed from them, after having blessed them according to their several stations, having imparted the word of God unto them, or administered unto them before his departure; and thus they took their several journeys throughout the land.
18 Leve também estes dez queijos ao comandante da unidade deles. Veja como estão seus irmãos e traga-me alguma garantia de que estão bem.
19 And Ammon went to the land of Ishmael, the land being called after the sons of Ishmael, who also became Lamanites.
19 Eles estão com Saul e com todos os homens de Israel no vale de Elá, lutando contra os filisteus".
20 And as Ammon entered the land of Ishmael, the Lamanites took him and bound him, as was their custom to bind all the Nephites who fell into their hands, and carry them before the king; and thus it was left to the pleasure of the king to slay them, or to retain them in captivity, or to cast them into prison, or to cast them out of his land, according to his will and pleasure.
20 Levantando-se de madrugada, Davi deixou o rebanho com outro pastor, pegou a carga e partiu, conforme Jessé lhe havia ordenado. Chegou ao acampamento na hora em que, com grito de batalha, o exército estava saindo para suas posições de combate.
21 And thus Ammon was carried before the king who was over the land of Ishmael; and his name was Lamoni; and he was a descendant of Ishmael.
21 Israel e os filisteus estavam se posicionando em linha de batalha, frente a frente.
22 And the king inquired of Ammon if it were his desire to dwell in the land among the Lamanites, or among his people.
22 Davi deixou o que havia trazido com o responsável pelos suprimentos, correu para a linha de batalha para saber como estavam seus irmãos.
23 And Ammon said unto him: Yea, I desire to dwell among this people for a time; yea, and perhaps until the day I die.
23 Enquanto conversava com eles, Golias, o guerreiro filisteu de Gate, avançou e lançou seu desafio habitual; e Davi o ouviu.
24 And it came to pass that king Lamoni was much pleased with Ammon, and caused that his bands should be loosed; and he would that Ammon should take one of his daughters to wife.
24 Quando os israelitas viram o homem, todos fugiram com muito medo.
25 But Ammon said unto him: Nay, but I will be thy servant. Therefore Ammon became a servant to king Lamoni. And it came to pass that he was set among other servants to watch the flocks of Lamoni, according to the custom of the Lamanites.
25 Os israelitas diziam entre si: "Vocês viram aquele homem? Ele veio desafiar Israel. O rei dará grandes riquezas a quem o matar. Também lhe dará sua filha em casamento e isentará de impostos em Israel a família de seu pai".
26 And after he had been in the service of the king three days, as he was with the Lamanitish servants going forth with their flocks to the place of water, which was called the water of Sebus, and all the Lamanites drive their flocks hither, that they may have water-
26 Davi perguntou aos soldados que estavam ali ao seu lado: "O que receberá o homem que matar esse filisteu e salvar a honra de Israel? Quem é esse filisteu incircunciso para desafiar os exércitos do Deus vivo? "
27 Therefore, as Ammon and the servants of the king were driving forth their flocks to this place of water, behold, a certain number of the Lamanites, who had been with their flocks to water, stood and scattered the flocks of Ammon and the servants of the king, and they scattered them insomuch that they fled many ways.
27 Repetiram a Davi o que haviam comentado e lhe disseram: "Isto é o que receberá o homem que matá-lo".
28 Now the servants of the king began to murmur, saying: Now the king will slay us, as he has our brethren because their flocks were scattered by the wickedness of these men. And they began to weep exceedingly, saying: Behold, our flocks are scattered already.
28 Quando Eliabe, o irmão mais velho, ouviu Davi falando com os soldados, ficou muito irritado com ele e perguntou: "Por que você veio até aqui? Com quem deixou aquelas poucas ovelhas no deserto? Sei que você é presunçoso e como seu coração é mau; você veio só para ver a batalha".
29 Now they wept because of the fear of being slain. Now when Ammon saw this his heart was swollen within him with joy; for, said he, I will show forth my power unto these my fellow-servants, or the power which is in me, in restoring these flocks unto the king, that I may win the hearts of these my fellow-servants, that I may lead them to believe in my words.
29 E disse Davi: "O que fiz agora? Será que não posso nem mesmo conversar? "
30 And now, these were the thoughts of Ammon, when he saw the afflictions of those whom he termed to be his brethren.
30 Ele então se virou para outro e perguntou a mesma coisa, e os homens responderam-lhe como antes.
31 And it came to pass that he flattered them by his words, saying: My brethren, be of good cheer and let us go in search of the flocks, and we will gather them together and bring them back unto the place of water; and thus we will preserve the flocks unto the king and he will not slay us.
31 As palavras de Davi chegaram aos ouvidos de Saul, que o mandou chamar.
32 And it came to pass that they went in search of the flocks, and they did follow Ammon, and they rushed forth with much swiftness and did head the flocks of the king, and did gather them together again to the place of water.
32 Davi disse a Saul: "Ninguém deve ficar com o coração abatido por causa desse filisteu; teu servo irá e lutará com ele".
33 And those men again stood to scatter their flocks; but Ammon said unto his brethren: Encircle the flocks round about that they flee not; and I go and contend with these men who do scatter our flocks.
33 Respondeu Saul: "Você não tem condições de lutar contra este filisteu; você é apenas um rapaz, e ele é um guerreiro desde a mocidade".
34 Therefore, they did as Ammon commanded them, and he went forth and stood to contend with those who stood by the waters of Sebus; and they were in number not a few.
34 Davi, entretanto, disse a Saul: "Teu servo toma conta das ovelhas de seu pai. Quando aparece um leão ou um urso e leva uma ovelha do rebanho,
35 Therefore they did not fear Ammon, for they supposed that one of their men could slay him according to their pleasure, for they knew not that the Lord had promised Mosiah that he would deliver his sons out of their hands; neither did they know anything concerning the Lord; therefore they delighted in the destruction of their brethren; and for this cause they stood to scatter the flocks of the king.
35 eu vou atrás dele, atinjo-o com golpes e livro a ovelha de sua boca. Quando se vira contra mim, eu o pego pela juba, atinjo-o com golpes até matá-lo.
36 But Ammon stood forth and began to cast stones at them with his sling; yea, with mighty power he did sling stones amongst them; and thus he slew a certain number of them insomuch that they began to be astonished at his power; nevertheless they were angry because of the slain of their brethren, and they were determined that he should fall; therefore, seeing that they could not hit him with their stones, they came forth with clubs to slay him.
36 Teu servo é capaz de matar tanto um leão quanto um urso; esse filisteu incircunciso será como um deles, pois desafiou os exércitos do Deus vivo.
37 But behold, every man that lifted his club to smite Ammon, he smote off their arms with his sword; for he did withstand their blows by smiting their arms with the edge of his sword, insomuch that they began to be astonished, and began to flee before him; yea, and they were not few in number; and he caused them to flee by the strength of his arm.
37 O Senhor que me livrou das garras do leão e das garras do urso me livrará das mãos desse filisteu". Diante disso Saul disse a Davi: "Vá, e que o Senhor esteja com você".
38 Now six of them had fallen by the sling, but he slew none save it were their leader with his sword; and he smote off as many of their arms as were lifted against him, and they were not a few.
38 Então Saul vestiu Davi com sua própria túnica. Colocou-lhe uma armadura e um capacete de bronze na cabeça.
39 And when he had driven them afar off, he returned and they watered their flocks and returned them to the pasture of the king, and then went in unto the king, bearing the arms which had been smitten off by the sword of Ammon, of those who sought to slay him; and they were carried in unto the king for a testimony of the things which they had done.
39 Davi prendeu sua espada sobre a túnica e tentou andar, pois não estava acostumado àquilo. E disse a Saul: "Não consigo andar com isto, pois não estou acostumado". Assim tirou tudo aquilo,
40 — ausente —
40 e em seguida pegou seu cajado, escolheu no riacho cinco pedras lisas, colocou-as na bolsa, isto é, no seu alforje de pastor e, com sua atiradeira na mão, aproximou-se do filisteu.
41 — ausente —
41 Enquanto isso, o filisteu, com seu escudeiro à frente, vinha se aproximando de Davi.
42 — ausente —
42 Olhou para Davi com desprezo, viu que era só um rapaz, ruivo e de boa aparência, e fez pouco caso dele.
43 — ausente —
43 E disse a Davi: "Por acaso sou um cão para que você venha contra mim com pedaços de pau? " E o filisteu amaldiçoou Davi invocando seus deuses,
44 — ausente —
44 e disse: "Venha aqui, e darei sua carne às aves do céu e aos animais do campo! "
45 — ausente —
45 E Davi disse ao filisteu: "Você vem contra mim com espada, com lança e com dardo, mas eu vou contra você em nome do Senhor dos Exércitos, o Deus dos exércitos de Israel, a quem você desafiou.
46 — ausente —
46 Hoje mesmo o Senhor o entregará nas minhas mãos, e eu o matarei e cortarei a sua cabeça. Hoje mesmo darei os cadáveres do exército filisteu às aves do céu e aos animais selvagens, e toda a terra saberá que há Deus em Israel.
47 — ausente —
47 Todos que estão aqui saberão que não é por espada ou por lança que o Senhor concede vitória; pois a batalha é do Senhor, e ele entregará todos vocês em nossas mãos".
48 — ausente —
48 Quando o filisteu começou a vir na direção de Davi, este correu depressa na direção da linha de batalha para enfrentá-lo.
49 — ausente —
49 Retirando uma pedra de seu alforje ele a arremessou com a atiradeira e atingiu o filisteu na testa, de tal modo que ela ficou encravada, e ele caiu com o rosto no chão.
50 — ausente —
50 Assim Davi venceu o filisteu com uma atiradeira e uma pedra; sem espada na mão ele derrubou o filisteu e o matou.
51 — ausente —
51 Davi correu e se pôs de pé sobre ele; e desembainhando a espada do filisteu acabou de matá-lo, cortando-lhe a cabeça com ela. Quando os filisteus viram que seu guerreiro estava morto, recuaram e fugiram.
52 — ausente —
52 Então os homens de Israel e de Judá deram o grito de guerra e perseguiram os filisteus até a entrada de Gate, e até as portas de Ecrom. Cadáveres de filisteus ficaram espalhados ao longo da estrada de Saaraim até Gate e Ecrom.
53 — ausente —
53 Quando os israelitas voltaram da perseguição aos filisteus, levaram tudo o que havia no acampamento deles.
54 — ausente —
54 Davi pegou a cabeça do filisteu, levou-a para Jerusalém e guardou as armas do filisteu em sua própria tenda.
55 — ausente —
55 Quando Saul viu Davi avançando para enfrentar o filisteu, perguntou a Abner, o comandante do exército: "Abner, quem é o pai daquele rapaz? " Abner respondeu: "Juro por tua vida, ó rei, que eu não sei".
56 — ausente —
56 E o rei ordenou-lhe: "Descubra quem é o pai dele".
57 — ausente —
57 Logo que Davi voltou, depois de ter matado o filisteu, Abner levou-o perante Saul. Davi ainda segurava a cabeça de Golias.
58 — ausente —
58 E Saul lhe perguntou: "De quem você é filho, meu jovem? " Respondeu Davi: "Sou filho de teu servo Jessé, de Belém".
