VC Versão Católica
1 AND now, these are the words of Ammon to his brethren, which say thus: My brothers and my brethren, behold I say unto you, how great reason have we to rejoice; for could we have supposed when we started from the land of Zarahemla that God would have granted unto us such great blessings?
1 Vieram os zifeus novamente ter com Saul, em Gabaa, e disseram-lhe: Davi está escondido na colina de Haquila, a oriente do deserto.
2 And now, I ask, what great blessings has he bestowed upon us? Can ye tell?
2 Saul desceu ao deserto de Zif com três mil homens de escol, de Israel, para ir em busca de Davi.
3 Behold, I answer for you; for our brethren, the Lamanites, were in darkness, yea, even in the darkest abyss, but behold, how many of them are brought to behold the marvelous light of God! And this is the blessing which hath been bestowed upon us, that we have been made instruments in the hands of God to bring about this great work.
3 Acampou na colina de Haquila, a oriente do deserto, à beira do caminho. Davi, porém, que habitava no deserto, vendo que Saul o tinha seguido até ali,
4 Behold, thousands of them do rejoice, and have been brought into the fold of God.
4 mandou espiões e soube com certeza que ele tinha chegado.
5 Behold, the field was ripe, and blessed are ye, for ye did thrust in the sickle, and did reap with your might, yea, all the day long did ye labor; and behold the number of your sheaves! And they shall be gathered into the garners, that they are not wasted.
5 Levantou-se então e foi ao lugar onde Saul estava acampado, chegando mesmo a descobrir o lugar onde o rei se deitava ao lado de Abner, filho de Ner, chefe do seu exército. Saul dormia no acampamento, rodeado de toda a sua gente.
6 Yea, they shall not be beaten down by the storm at the last day; yea, neither shall they be harrowed up by the whirlwinds; but when the storm cometh they shall be gathered together in their place, that the storm cannot penetrate to them; yea, neither shall they be driven with fierce winds whithersoever the enemy listeth to carry them.
6 Davi disse então a Aquimelec, o hiteu, e a Abisaí, filho de Sarvia e irmão de Joab: Quem quer descer comigo ao acampamento de Saul? Eu, respondeu Abisaí, irei contigo.
7 But behold, they are in the hands of the Lord of the harvest, and they are his; and he will raise them up at the last day.
7 Davi e Abisaí penetraram, pois, durante a noite no meio das tropas. Saul dormia no acampamento, tendo a sua lança cravada no chão ao lado de sua cabeceira. Abner e sua gente dormiam ao redor dele.
8 Blessed be the name of our God; let us sing to his praise, yea, let us give thanks to his holy name, for he doth work righteousness forever.
8 Abisaí disse a Davi: Deus entregou hoje em tuas mãos o teu inimigo; deixa-me cravá-lo por terra de um só golpe de lança, sem precisar de um segundo golpe.
9 For if we had not come up out of the land of Zarahemla, these our dearly beloved brethren, who have so dearly beloved us, would still have been racked with hatred against us, yea, and they would also have been strangers to God.
9 Não o mates, respondeu Davi. Quem poderia impunemente estender a mão contra o ungido do Senhor?
10 And it came to pass that when Ammon had said these words, his brother Aaron rebuked him, saying: Ammon, I fear that thy joy doth carry thee away unto boasting.
10 E ajuntou: Por Deus! É o Senhor quem o há de ferir, seja que, chegando o seu dia, morra, seja que pereça em batalha.
11 But Ammon said unto him: I do not boast in my own strength, nor in my own wisdom; but behold, my joy is full, yea, my heart is brim with joy, and I will rejoice in my God.
11 Deus me livre de levantar a minha mão contra o ungido do Senhor! Agora, toma a lança que está à sua cabeceira com a bilha de água e vamo-nos.
12 Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever.
12 Apanhou Davi a lança e a bilha de água que estavam à cabeceira de Saul e foram-se, sem que ninguém os tivesse visto, ou os advertisse mesmo de leve; mas todos dormiam, porque o Senhor os tinha sepultado em um profundo sono.
13 Behold, how many thousands of our brethren has he loosed from the pains of hell; and they are brought to sing redeeming love, and this because of the power of his word which is in us, therefore have we not great reason to rejoice?
13 Davi passou para o outro lado e parou ao longe, no cimo do monte, separando-os uma grande distância.
14 Yea, we have reason to praise him forever, for he is the Most High God, and has loosed our brethren from the chains of hell.
14 Então bradou aos soldados de Saul e a Abner, filho de Ner: Não respondes, Abner? Quem és tu, replicou Abner, que gritas assim para o rei?
15 Yea, they were encircled about with everlasting darkness and destruction; but behold, he has brought them into his everlasting light, yea, into everlasting salvation; and they are encircled about with the matchless bounty of his love; yea, and we have been instruments in his hands of doing this great and marvelous work.
15 Davi disse a Abner: Afinal, não és tu um homem? Quem é igual a ti em Israel? Por que não guardas o rei, teu senhor, tendo entrado alguém aí para matá-lo?
16 Therefore, let us glory, yea, we will glory in the Lord; yea, we will rejoice, for our joy is full; yea, we will praise our God forever. Behold, who can glory too much in the Lord? Yea, who can say too much of his great power, and of his mercy, and of his long-suffering towards the children of men? Behold, I say unto you, I cannot say the smallest part which I feel.
16 Não é bonito o que fizeste. Por Deus! Mereceis a morte, porque não velastes sobre o vosso senhor, o ungido do Senhor! Olha um pouco onde estão a lança do rei e a bilha de água que estavam junto à sua cabeceira!
17 Who could have supposed that our God would have been so merciful as to have snatched us from our awful, sinful, and polluted state?
17 Reconheceu Saul a voz de Davi e disse: É tua esta voz, ó meu filho Davi? Davi respondeu: Sim, ó rei, meu senhor.
18 Behold, we went forth even in wrath, with mighty threatenings to destroy his church.
18 E ajuntou: Por que o meu senhor persegue o seu servo? Que fiz eu? Que crime cometi?
19 Oh then, why did he not consign us to an awful destruction, yea, why did he not let the sword of his justice fall upon us, and doom us to eternal despair?
19 Que o rei, meu senhor, digne-se ouvir as palavras do seu servo: se é o Senhor quem te excita contra mim, receba ele o perfume de uma oferenda! Mas, se são homens, sejam eles malditos diante do Senhor; porque me expulsam para tirar minha parte da herança do Senhor! E dizem-me: vai servir a deuses estranhos!
20 Oh, my soul, almost as it were, fleeth at the thought. Behold, he did not exercise his justice upon us, but in his great mercy hath brought us over that everlasting gulf of death and misery, even to the salvation of our souls.
20 Oh! Não corra o meu sangue sobre a terra longe da face do Senhor! O rei de Israel pôs-se em campanha contra uma pulga, como se persegue nos montes uma perdiz!
21 And now behold, my brethren, what natural man is there that knoweth these things? I say unto you, there is none that knoweth these things, save it be the penitent.
21 Saul disse: Fiz mal! Volta, meu filho Davi; não te farei mais mal algum, pois que neste dia respeitaste a minha vida. Procedi nesciamente; cometi um grandíssimo pecado.
22 Yea, he that repenteth and exerciseth faith, and bringeth forth good works, and prayeth continually without ceasing-unto such it is given to know the mysteries of God; yea, unto such it shall be given to reveal things which never have been revealed; yea, and it shall be given unto such to bring thousands of souls to repentance, even as it has been given unto us to bring these our brethren to repentance.
22 Davi respondeu: Eis aqui a lança do rei: venha um de teus homens buscá-la!
23 Now do ye remember, my brethren, that we said unto our brethren in the land of Zarahemla, we go up to the land of Nephi, to preach unto our brethren, the Lamanites, and they laughed us to scorn?
23 O Senhor recompensará a cada um segundo a sua justiça e fidelidade. Ele te havia entregue hoje em meu poder, mas não quis estender a minha mão contra o seu ungido.
24 For they said unto us: Do ye suppose that ye can bring the Lamanites to the knowledge of the truth? Do ye suppose that ye can convince the Lamanites of the incorrectness of the traditions of their fathers, as stiffnecked a people as they are; whose hearts delight in the shedding of blood; whose days have been spent in the grossest iniquity; whose ways have been the ways of a transgressor from the beginning? Now my brethren, ye remember that this was their language.
24 E assim como a tua vida foi preciosa diante de mim, assim seja a minha aos olhos do Senhor, e ele me salvará de toda a tribulação.
25 And moreover they did say: Let us take up arms against them, that we destroy them and their iniquity out of the land, lest they overrun us and destroy us.
25 Saul disse a Davi: Bendito sejas, meu filho Davi! Tu triunfarás seguramente em todas as tuas empresas! Davi retomou o seu caminho e Saul voltou para a sua casa.
26 But behold, my beloved brethren, we came into the wilderness not with the intent to destroy our brethren, but with the intent that perhaps we might save some few of their souls.

27 Now when our hearts were depressed, and we were about to turn back, behold, the Lord comforted us, and said: Go amongst thy brethren, the Lamanites, and bear with patience thine afflictions, and I will give unto you success.
27 — ausente —
28 And now behold, we have come, and been forth amongst them; and we have been patient in our sufferings, and we have suffered every privation; yea, we have traveled from house to house, relying upon the mercies of the world-not upon the mercies of the world alone but upon the mercies of God.
28 — ausente —
29 And we have entered into their houses and taught them, and we have taught them in their streets; yea, and we have taught them upon their hills; and we have also entered into their temples and their synagogues and taught them; and we have been cast out, and mocked, and spit upon, and smote upon our cheeks; and we have been stoned, and taken and bound with strong cords, and cast into prison; and through the power and wisdom of God we have been delivered again.
29 — ausente —
30 And we have suffered all manner of afflictions, and all this, that perhaps we might be the means of saving some soul; and we supposed that our joy would be full if perhaps we could be the means of saving some.
30 — ausente —
31 Now behold, we can look forth and see the fruits of our labors; and are they few? I say unto you, Nay, they are many; yea, and we can witness of their sincerity, because of their love towards their brethren and also towards us.
31 — ausente —
32 For behold, they had rather sacrifice their lives than even to take the life of their enemy; and they have buried their weapons of war deep in the earth, because of their love towards their brethren.
32 — ausente —
33 And now behold I say unto you, has there been so great love in all the land? Behold, I say unto you, Nay, there has not, even among the Nephites.
33 — ausente —
34 For behold, they would take up arms against their brethren; they would not suffer themselves to be slain. But behold how many of these have laid down their lives; and we know that they have gone to their God, because of their love and of their hatred to sin.
34 — ausente —
35 Now have we not reason to rejoice? Yea, I say unto you, there never were men that had so great reason to rejoice as we, since the world began; yea, and my joy is carried away, even unto boasting in my God; for he has all power, all wisdom, and all understanding; he comprehendeth all things, and he is a merciful Being, even unto salvation, to those who will repent and believe on his name.
35 — ausente —
36 Now if this is boasting, even so will I boast; for this is my life and my light, my joy and my salvation, and my redemption from everlasting wo. Yea, blessed is the name of my God, who has been mindful of this people, who are a branch of the tree of Israel, and has been lost from its body in a strange land; yea, I say, blessed be the name of my God, who has been mindful of us, wanderers in a strange land.
36 — ausente —
37 Now my brethren, we see that God is mindful of every people, whatsoever land they may be in; yea, he numbereth his people, and his bowels of mercy are over all the earth. Now this is my joy, and my great thanksgiving; yea, and I will give thanks unto my God forever. Amen.
