1 Samuel 29
The Book of Mormon (BOM) vs VC
1 O THAT I were an angel, and could have the wish of mine heart, that I might go forth and speak with the trump of God, with a voice to shake the earth, and cry repentance unto every people!
1 Reuniram os filisteus todas as suas forças em Afec, estando os israelitas acampados junto à fonte de Jezrael.
2 Yea, I would declare unto every soul, as with the voice of thunder, repentance and the plan of redemption, that they should repent and come unto our God, that there might not be more sorrow upon all the face of the earth.
2 Os príncipes dos filisteus iam à frente com suas tropas, divididas em companhias de cem e de mil homens. Davi e sua gente caminhavam na retaguarda com Aquis.
3 But behold, I am a man, and do sin in my wish; for I ought to be content with the things which the Lord hath allotted unto me.
3 Os chefes dos filisteus disseram: Quem são esses hebreus? É Davi, respondeu Aquis, servo de Saul, rei de Israel, que está em minha companhia há muitos dias, e mesmo há muitos anos. Nada tenho a censurar-lhe desde o dia em que se refugiou junto de mim até hoje.
4 I ought not to harrow up in my desires, the firm decree of a just God, for I know that he granteth unto men according to their desire, whether it be unto death or unto life; yea, I know that he allotteth unto men, yea, decreeth unto them decrees which are unalterable, according to their wills, whether they be unto salvation or unto destruction.
4 Furiosos, os chefes dos filisteus disseram-lhe: Vá-se embora esse homem; manda que ele volte ao lugar que lhe marcaste, mas que não desça conosco à batalha; não suceda que se volte contra nós no meio do combate. Pois como poderia ele ganhar melhor as graças de seu amo, do que ao preço das cabeças de nossos homens?
5 Yea, and I know that good and evil have come before all men; he that knoweth not good from evil is blameless; but he that knoweth good and evil, to him it is given according to his desires, whether he desireth good or evil, life or death, joy or remorse of conscience.
5 Não é ele porventura aquele Davi, do qual se cantava dançando: Saul matou seus milhares, e Davi seus dez milhares?
6 Now, seeing that I know these things, why should I desire more than to perform the work to which I have been called?
6 Aquis chamou Davi e disse-lhe: Viva Deus! Tu és um homem reto e teu proceder comigo no acampamento me parece justo. Até hoje nada tive a censurar-te desde que chegaste à minha casa. Mas não és bem visto pelos príncipes.
7 Why should I desire that I were an angel, that I could speak unto all the ends of the earth?
7 Retira-te, pois, e vai em paz, para não descontentar os príncipes dos filisteus.
8 For behold, the Lord doth grant unto all nations, of their own nation and tongue, to teach his word, yea, in wisdom, all that he seeth fit that they should have; therefore we see that the Lord doth counsel in wisdom, according to that which is just and true.
8 Davi disse a Aquis: Mas, que fiz eu? Que achaste de censurável no teu servo, desde o dia em que cheguei à tua casa até hoje, para que eu não vá combater contra os inimigos do rei, meu senhor?
9 I know that which the Lord hath commanded me, and I glory in it. I do not glory of myself, but I glory in that which the Lord hath commanded me; yea, and this is my glory, that perhaps I may be an instrument in the hands of God to bring some soul to repentance; and this is my joy.
9 Eu o sei, respondeu Aquis; tens sido bom para comigo, como um anjo do Senhor. Mas os chefes dos filisteus é que não querem que vás com eles ao combate.
10 And behold, when I see many of my brethren truly penitent, and coming to the Lord their God, then is my soul filled with joy; then do I remember what the Lord has done for me, yea, even that he hath heard my prayer; yea, then do I remember his merciful arm which he extended towards me.
10 Amanhã cedo, portanto, parti, tu e os servos de teu senhor que te seguiram. Ide, parti bem cedo, ao clarear do dia.
11 Yea, and I also remember the captivity of my fathers; for I surely do know that the Lord did deliver them out of bondage, and by this did establish his church; yea, the Lord God, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, did deliver them out of bondage.
11 Davi e os seus homens levantaram-se de madrugada e voltaram à terra dos filisteus. Estes, porém, subiram a Jezrael.
12 Yea, I have always remembered the captivity of my fathers; and that same God who delivered them out of the hands of the Egyptians did deliver them out of bondage.
12 — ausente —
13 Yea, and that same God did establish his church among them; yea, and that same God hath called me by a holy calling, to preach the word unto this people, and hath given me much success, in the which my joy is full.
13 — ausente —
14 But I do not joy in my own success alone, but my joy is more full because of the success of my brethren, who have been up to the land of Nephi.
14 — ausente —
15 Behold, they have labored exceedingly, and have brought forth much fruit; and how great shall be their reward!
15 — ausente —
16 Now, when I think of the success of these my brethren my soul is carried away, even to the separation of it from the body, as it were, so great is my joy.
16 — ausente —
17 And now may God grant unto these, my brethren, that they may sit down in the kingdom of God; yea, and also all those who are the fruit of their labors that they may go no more out, but that they may praise him forever. And may God grant that it may be done according to my words, even as I have spoken. Amen.
