1 Samuel 17
The Book of Mormon (BOM) vs NVT
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 reuniram seu exército para a batalha e acamparam em Efes-Damim, entre Socó, em Judá, 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 Em resposta, Saul reuniu as tropas israelitas perto do vale de Elá.
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 Assim, os filisteus e os israelitas ficaram frente a frente, em colinas opostas, com 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 Então Golias, um guerreiro filisteu de Gate, saiu das fileiras do exército filisteu. Ele tinha 2,90 metros 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 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 Também usava caneleiras de bronze e carregava no ombro um dardo de bronze.
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 pesada e grossa, como o eixo de um tear, e a ponta de ferro da lança pesava cerca de sete quilos. Seu escudeiro caminhava 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 para as tropas israelitas: “Por que saíram todos para lutar? Eu sou filisteu, e vocês são servos de Saul. Escolham um homem para vir aqui e 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 me matar, seremos seus escravos. Mas, se eu o matar, vocês serão nossos escravos!
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 Desafio hoje os exércitos de Israel. Mandem um homem para lutar 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 Quando Saul e os israelitas ouviram isso, ficaram aterrorizados e muito abalados.
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 Jessé, efrateu de Belém, na terra de Judá. Na época do rei Saul, Jessé já era idoso e tinha oito filhos.
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 — Eliabe, Abinadabe e Simeia — haviam se alistado no exército de Saul para lutar contra os filisteus.
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 mais novo. Seus três irmãos mais velhos seguiam o exército de 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 enquanto Davi ia e voltava para ajudar seu pai a cuidar das ovelhas 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, pela manhã e à tarde, o guerreiro filisteu se apresentava diante do exército israelita e o desafiava.
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 Um dia, Jessé disse a Davi: “Leve depressa para seus irmãos que estão no acampamento este cesto com grãos tostados e estes dez pães.
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 para o capitão deles. Veja como estão seus irmãos e traga notícias deles”.
19 And Ammon went to the land of Ishmael, the land being called after the sons of Ishmael, who also became Lamanites.
19 Os irmãos de Davi estavam com Saul e o exército israelita 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 Davi deixou as ovelhas com outro pastor e, na manhã seguinte, partiu bem cedo com os presentes, como Jessé havia ordenado. Chegou ao acampamento quando o exército israelita saía para o campo de batalha com gritos de guerra.
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 Logo, filisteus e israelitas estavam frente a frente, exército contra exército.
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 suas coisas com o responsável pelos suprimentos e correu até a frente de batalha para saudar 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 falava com eles, Golias, o guerreiro filisteu de Gate, saiu das fileiras do exército filisteu. Davi o ouviu gritar seu desafio habitual.
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 Golias, começaram a fugir, apavorados.
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 “Vocês viram aquele homem?”, perguntavam uns aos outros. “Ele sai todos os dias para desafiar Israel. O rei ofereceu uma grande recompensa para quem o matar. Dará uma de suas filhas como esposa e isentará toda a família dele de pagar impostos!”
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 Então Davi perguntou aos soldados que estavam por perto: “O que receberá o homem que matar esse filisteu e acabar com suas provocações contra Israel? Afinal de contas, 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 Os soldados repetiram o que tinham dito e confirmaram: “Sim, essa será a recompensa para quem o matar”.
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, irmão mais velho de Davi, o ouviu falando com os soldados, ficou furioso e perguntou: “O que você está fazendo aqui? Não devia estar tomando conta daquelas poucas ovelhas? Conheço sua arrogância e suas más intenções. Você quer apenas 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 “O que eu fiz agora?”, disse Davi. “Só fiz uma pergunta!”
30 And now, these were the thoughts of Ammon, when he saw the afflictions of those whom he termed to be his brethren.
30 Então foi até outros soldados, fez a mesma pergunta e recebeu a mesma resposta.
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 Alguém contou ao rei Saul o que Davi tinha dito, e o rei mandou chamá-lo.
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 se preocupe por causa desse filisteu. Seu servo vai lutar contra 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 Saul respondeu: “Você não conseguirá lutar contra esse filisteu e vencer! É apenas um rapaz, e ele é guerreiro desde a juventude”.
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, porém insistiu: “Tomo conta das ovelhas de meu pai e, quando um leão ou um urso aparece para levar um cordeiro 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 vou atrás dele com meu cajado e tiro o cordeiro de sua boca. Se o animal me ataca, eu o seguro pela mandíbula e dou golpes nele com o cajado até ele morrer.
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 Fiz isso com o leão e o urso, e farei o mesmo com esse filisteu incircunciso, pois ele 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 E disse ainda: “O S enhor que me livrou das garras do leão e do urso também me livrará desse filisteu!”. Por fim, Saul consentiu. “Está bem, então vá”, disse. “E que o S
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 deu a Davi sua própria armadura, incluindo uma couraça e um capacete de bronze.
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 a espada sobre a armadura e tentou dar alguns passos, pois nunca tinha usado essas coisas. “Não consigo andar com tudo isso, pois não estou acostumado”, disse a Saul, e tirou a armadura.
