Juízes 9
CPDV: Catholic Public Domain Version (SM_CPDV) vs ARA
1 Now Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal, went to Shechem, to his maternal brothers, and he spoke to them, and to all the relatives of the house of his maternal grandfather, saying:
1 Abimeleque, filho de Jerubaal, foi-se a Siquém, aos irmãos de sua mãe, e falou-lhes e a toda a geração da casa do pai de sua mãe, dizendo:
2 “Speak to all the men of Shechem: Which is better for you: that seventy men, all the sons of Jerubbaal, should rule over you, or that one man should rule over you? And consider also that I am your bone and your flesh.”
2 Falai, peço-vos, aos ouvidos de todos os cidadãos de Siquém: Que vos parece melhor: que setenta homens, todos os filhos de Jerubaal, dominem sobre vós ou que apenas um domine sobre vós? Lembrai-vos também de que sou osso vosso e carne vossa.
3 And his maternal brothers spoke about him to all the men of Shechem, all these words, and they inclined their hearts after Abimelech, saying, “He is our brother.”
3 Então, os irmãos de sua mãe falaram a todos os cidadãos de Siquém todas aquelas palavras; e o coração deles se inclinou a seguir Abimeleque, porque disseram: É nosso irmão.
4 And they gave to him the weight of seventy silver coins from the shrine of Baal-berith. With this, he hired for himself indigent and wandering men, and they followed him.
4 E deram-lhe setenta peças de prata, da casa de Baal-Berite, com as quais alugou Abimeleque uns homens levianos e atrevidos, que o seguiram.
5 And he went to his father’s house in Ophrah, and he killed his brothers, the sons of Jerubbaal, seventy men, upon one stone. And there remained only Joatham, the youngest son of Jerubbaal, and he was in hiding.
5 Foi à casa de seu pai, a Ofra, e matou seus irmãos, os filhos de Jerubaal, setenta homens, sobre uma pedra. Porém Jotão, filho menor de Jerubaal, ficou, porque se escondera.
6 Then all the men of Shechem gathered together, and all the families of the city of Millo, and they went and appointed Abimelech as king, beside the oak that stood at Shechem.
6 Então, se ajuntaram todos os cidadãos de Siquém e toda Bete-Milo; e foram e proclamaram Abimeleque rei, junto ao carvalho memorial que está perto de Siquém.
7 When this had been reported to Jotham, he went and stood at the top of Mount Gerizim. And lifting up his voice, he cried out and said: “Listen to me, men of Shechem, so that God may listen to you.
7 Avisado disto, Jotão foi, e se pôs no cimo do monte Gerizim, e em alta voz clamou, e disse-lhes: Ouvi-me, cidadãos de Siquém, e Deus vos ouvirá a vós outros.
8 The trees went to anoint a king over themselves. And they said to the olive tree, ‘Reign over us.’
8 Foram, certa vez, as árvores ungir para si um rei e disseram à oliveira: Reina sobre nós.
9 And it responded, ‘How could I abandon my fatness, which both gods and men make use of, and depart to be promoted among the trees?’
9 Porém a oliveira lhes respondeu: Deixaria eu o meu óleo, que Deus e os homens em mim prezam, e iria pairar sobre as árvores?
10 And the trees said to the fig tree, ‘Come and accept royal power over us.’
10 Então, disseram as árvores à figueira: Vem tu e reina sobre nós.
11 And it responded to them, ‘How could I abandon my sweetness, and my very sweet fruits, and depart to be promoted among the other trees?’
11 Porém a figueira lhes respondeu: Deixaria eu a minha doçura, o meu bom fruto e iria pairar sobre as árvores?
12 And the trees said to the vine, ‘Come and reign over us.’
12 Então, disseram as árvores à videira: Vem tu e reina sobre nós.
13 And it responded to them, ‘How could I abandon my wine, which gives joy to God and men, and be promoted among the other trees?’
13 Porém a videira lhes respondeu: Deixaria eu o meu vinho, que agrada a Deus e aos homens, e iria pairar sobre as árvores?
14 And all the trees said to the bramble, ‘Come and reign over us.’
14 Então, todas as árvores disseram ao espinheiro: Vem tu e reina sobre nós.
15 And it responded to them: ‘If truly you would appoint me as king, come and rest under my shadow. But if you are not willing, let fire go forth from the bramble, and let it devour the cedars of Lebanon.’ ”
15 Respondeu o espinheiro às árvores: Se, deveras, me ungis rei sobre vós, vinde e refugiai-vos debaixo de minha sombra; mas, se não, saia do espinheiro fogo que consuma os cedros do Líbano.
16 So now, if you are upright and without sin in appointing Abimelech as a king over you, and if you have acted well with Jerubbaal, and with his house, and if you have repaid, in turn, the benefits of him who fought on your behalf,
16 Agora, pois, se, deveras e sinceramente, procedestes, proclamando rei Abimeleque, e se bem vos portastes para com Jerubaal e para com a sua casa, e se com ele agistes segundo o merecimento dos seus feitos
17 and who gave his life to dangers, so that he might rescue you from the hand of Midian,
17 (porque meu pai pelejou por vós e, arriscando a vida, vos livrou das mãos dos midianitas;
18 though you now have risen up against my father’s house, and have killed his sons, seventy men, upon one stone, and have appointed Abimelech, the son of his handmaid, as a king over the inhabitants of Shechem, since he is your brother,
18 porém vós, hoje, vos levantastes contra a casa de meu pai e matastes seus filhos, setenta homens, sobre uma pedra; e a Abimeleque, filho de sua serva, fizestes reinar sobre os cidadãos de Siquém, porque é vosso irmão),
19 if therefore you are upright and have acted without fault with Jerubbaal and his house, then you should rejoice on this day in Abimelech, and he should rejoice in you.
19 se, deveras e sinceramente, procedestes, hoje, com Jerubaal e com a sua casa, alegrai-vos com Abimeleque, e também ele se alegre convosco.
20 But if you have acted perversely, may fire go forth from him and consume the inhabitants of Shechem and the town of Millo. And may fire go forth from the men of Shechem and from the town of Millo, and devour Abimelech.”
20 Mas, se não, saia fogo de Abimeleque e consuma os cidadãos de Siquém e Bete-Milo; e saia fogo dos cidadãos de Siquém e de Bete-Milo, que consuma a Abimeleque.
21 And when he had said these things, he fled and went away to Beer. And he lived in that place, out of fear of Abimelech, his brother.
21 Fugiu logo Jotão, e foi-se para Beer, e ali habitou por temer seu irmão Abimeleque.
22 And so Abimelech reigned over Israel for three years.
22 Havendo, pois, Abimeleque dominado três anos sobre Israel,
23 And the Lord put a very grievous spirit between Abimelech and the inhabitants of Shechem, who began to detest him,
23 suscitou Deus um espírito de aversão entre Abimeleque e os cidadãos de Siquém; e estes se houveram aleivosamente contra Abimeleque,
24 and to place blame for the crime of the killing of the seventy sons of Jerubbaal, and for the shedding of their blood, upon Abimelech, their brother, and upon the rest of the leaders of the Shechemites, who assisted him.
24 para que a vingança da violência praticada contra os setenta filhos de Jerubaal viesse, e o seu sangue caísse sobre Abimeleque, seu irmão, que os matara, e sobre os cidadãos de Siquém, que contribuíram para que ele matasse seus próprios irmãos.
25 And they stationed an ambush against him at the summit of the mountains. And while they were waiting for his arrival, they committed robberies, taking spoils from those passing by. And this was reported to Abimelech.
25 Os cidadãos de Siquém puseram contra ele homens de emboscada sobre os cimos dos montes; e todo aquele que passava pelo caminho junto a eles, eles o assaltavam; e isto se contou a Abimeleque.
26 Now Gaal, the son of Ebed, went with his brothers, and crossed over to Shechem. And the inhabitants of Shechem, uplifted by his arrival,
26 Veio também Gaal, filho de Ebede, com seus irmãos, e se estabeleceram em Siquém; e os cidadãos de Siquém confiaram nele,
27 departed into the fields, laying waste to the vineyards, and trampling the grapes. And while singing and dancing, they entered into the shrine of their god. And while feasting and drinking, they cursed Abimelech.
27 e saíram ao campo, e vindimaram as suas vinhas, e pisaram as uvas, e fizeram festas, e foram à casa de seu deus, e comeram, e beberam, e amaldiçoaram Abimeleque.
28 And Gaal, the son of Ebed, cried out: “Who is Abimelech, and what is Shechem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerubbaal, who has appointed Zebul, his servant, as ruler over the men of Hamor, the father of Shechem? Why then should we serve him?
28 Disse Gaal, filho de Ebede: Quem é Abimeleque, e quem somos nós de Siquém, para que o sirvamos? Não é, porventura, filho de Jerubaal? E não é Zebul o seu oficial? Servi, antes, aos homens de Hamor, pai de Siquém. Mas nós, por que serviremos a ele?
29 I wish that someone would set this people under my hand, so that I might take away Abimelech from their midst.” And it was told to Abimelech, “Gather the multitude of an army, and approach.”
29 Quem dera estivesse este povo sob a minha mão, e eu expulsaria Abimeleque e lhe diria: Multiplica o teu exército e sai.
30 For Zebul, the ruler of the city, upon hearing the words of Gaal, the son of Ebed, became very angry.
30 Ouvindo Zebul, governador da cidade, as palavras de Gaal, filho de Ebede, se acendeu em ira;
31 And he sent messengers secretly to Abimelech, saying: “Behold, Gaal, the son of Ebed, has arrived at Shechem with his brothers, and he has set the city against you.
31 e enviou, astutamente, mensageiros a Abimeleque, dizendo: Eis que Gaal, filho de Ebede, e seus irmãos vieram a Siquém e alvoroçaram a cidade contra ti.
32 And so, rise up in the night, with the people who are with you, and lie hidden in the field.
32 Levanta-te, pois, de noite, tu e o povo que tiveres contigo, e ponde-vos de emboscada no campo.
33 And at first light in the morning, as the sun is rising, rush upon the city. And when he goes out against you, with his people, do to him what you are able to do.”
33 Levanta-te pela manhã, ao sair o sol, e dá de golpe sobre a cidade; saindo contra ti Gaal com a sua gente, procede com ele como puderes.
34 And so Abimelech rose up, with all his army, by night, and he set ambushes near Shechem in four places.
34 Levantou-se, pois, de noite, Abimeleque e todo o povo que com ele estava, e se puseram de emboscada contra Siquém, em quatro grupos.
35 And Gaal, the son of Ebed, went out, and he stood at the entrance to the gate of the city. Then Abimelech rose up, and all the army with him, from the places of the ambushes.
35 Gaal, filho de Ebede, saiu e pôs-se à entrada da porta da cidade; com isto Abimeleque e todo o povo que com ele estava se levantaram das emboscadas.
36 And when Gaal had seen the people, he said to Zebul, “Behold, a multitude is descending from the mountains.” And he responded to him, “You are seeing the shadows of the mountains, as if they were the heads of men, and so you are being deceived by this error.”
36 Vendo Gaal aquele povo, disse a Zebul: Eis que desce gente dos cimos dos montes. Zebul, ao contrário, lhe disse: As sombras dos montes vês por homens.
37 Again, Gaal said, “Behold, a people is descending from the middle of the land, and one company is arriving by the way that looks towards the oak.”
37 Porém Gaal tornou ainda a falar e disse: Eis ali desce gente defronte de nós, e uma tropa vem do caminho do carvalho dos Adivinhadores.
38 And Zebul said to him: “Where is your mouth now, with which you said, ‘Who is Abimelech that we should serve him?’ Is this not the people that you were despising? Go out and fight against him.”
38 Então, lhe disse Zebul: Onde está, agora, a tua boca, com a qual dizias: Quem é Abimeleque, para que o sirvamos? Não é este, porventura, o povo que desprezaste? Sai, pois, e peleja contra ele.
39 Therefore, Gaal went out, with the people of Shechem watching, and he fought against Abimelech,
39 Saiu Gaal adiante dos cidadãos de Siquém e pelejou contra Abimeleque.
40 who pursued him, fleeing, and drove him into the city. And many were cut down on his side, even to the gate of the city.
40 Abimeleque o perseguiu; Gaal fugiu de diante dele, e muitos feridos caíram até a entrada da porta da cidade.
41 And Abimelech made camp at Arumah. But Zebul expelled Gaal and his companions from the city, and he would not permit them to remain in it.
41 Abimeleque ficou em Arumá. E Zebul expulsou a Gaal e seus irmãos, para que não habitassem em Siquém.
42 Therefore, on the following day, the people departed into the field. And when this had been reported to Abimelech,
42 No dia seguinte, saiu o povo ao campo; disto foi avisado Abimeleque,
43 he took his army, and divided it into three companies, and he placed ambushes in the fields. And seeing that the people had departed from the city, he rose up and rushed upon them,
43 que tomou os seus homens, e os repartiu em três grupos, e os pôs de emboscada no campo. Olhando, viu que o povo saía da cidade; então, se levantou contra eles e os feriu.
44 along with his own company, assaulting and besieging the city. But the two other companies pursued the enemies scattered in the field.
44 Abimeleque e o grupo que com ele estava romperam de improviso e tomaram posição à porta da cidade, enquanto os dois outros grupos deram de golpe sobre todos quantos estavam no campo e os destroçaram.
45 Now Abimelech assaulted the city all that day. And he seized it, and he killed its inhabitants, and he destroyed it, so much so that he scattered salt in it.
45 Todo aquele dia pelejou Abimeleque contra a cidade e a tomou. Matou o povo que nela havia, assolou-a e a semeou de sal.
46 And when those living in the tower of Shechem had heard about this, they entered the temple of their god, Berith, where they had formed a covenant with him. And it was because of this, that the place had taken its name. And it was greatly fortified.
46 Tendo ouvido isto todos os cidadãos da Torre de Siquém, entraram na fortaleza subterrânea, no templo de El-Berite.
47 Abimelech, also hearing that the men of the tower of Shechem had joined together,
47 Contou-se a Abimeleque que todos os cidadãos da Torre de Siquém se haviam congregado.
48 ascended to mount Zalmon, with all his people. And taking an axe, he cut down the branch of a tree. And laying it on his shoulder, and carrying it, he said to his companions, “What you see me do, you must do quickly.”
48 Então, subiu ele ao monte Salmom, ele e todo o seu povo; Abimeleque tomou de um machado, e cortou uma ramada de árvore, e a levantou, e pô-la ao ombro, e disse ao povo que com ele estava: O que me vistes fazer, fazei-o também vós, depressa.
49 And so, eagerly cutting down branches from the trees, they followed their leader. And surrounding the fortified place, they set it on fire. And so it happened that, by smoke and fire, one thousand persons died, men and women together, the occupants of the tower of Shechem.
49 Assim, cada um de todo o povo cortou a sua ramada, e seguiram Abimeleque, e as puseram em cima da fortaleza subterrânea, e queimaram sobre todos os da Torre de Siquém, de maneira que morreram todos, uns mil homens e mulheres.
50 Then Abimelech, setting out from there, arrived at the town of Thebez, which he surrounded and besieged with his army.
50 Então, se foi Abimeleque a Tebes, e a sitiou, e a tomou.
51 Now there was, in the midst of the city, a high tower, to which men and women were fleeing together, with all the leaders of the city. And, having very strongly sealed the gate, they were standing on the roof of the tower to defend themselves.
51 Havia, porém, no meio da cidade, uma torre forte; e todos os homens e mulheres, todos os moradores da cidade, se acolheram a ela, e fecharam após si as portas da torre, e subiram ao seu eirado.
52 And Abimelech, drawing near the tower, fought valiantly. And approaching the gate, he strove to set it on fire.
52 Abimeleque veio até à torre, pelejou contra ela e se chegou até à sua porta para a incendiar.
53 And behold, one woman, throwing a fragment of a millstone from above, struck the head of Abimelech, and broke his skull.
53 Porém certa mulher lançou uma pedra superior de moinho sobre a cabeça de Abimeleque e lhe quebrou o crânio.
54 And he quickly called to his armor bearer, and said to him, “Draw your sword and strike me, otherwise it may be said that I was slain by a woman.” And, doing as he was ordered, he killed him.
54 Então, chamou logo ao moço, seu escudeiro, e lhe disse: Desembainha a tua espada e mata-me, para que não se diga de mim: Mulher o matou. O moço o atravessou, e ele morreu.
55 And when he was dead, all those of Israel who were with him returned to their homes.
55 Vendo, pois, os homens de Israel que Abimeleque já estava morto, foram-se, cada um para sua casa.
56 And so did God repay the evil that Abimelech had done against his father by killing his seventy brothers.
56 Assim, Deus fez tornar sobre Abimeleque o mal que fizera a seu pai, por ter aquele matado os seus setenta irmãos.
57 The Shechemites also were given retribution for what they had done, and the curse of Jotham, the son of Jerubbaal, fell upon them.
57 De igual modo, todo o mal dos homens de Siquém Deus fez cair sobre a cabeça deles. Assim, veio sobre eles a maldição de Jotão, filho de Jerubaal.
