2 Samuel 12

Então o Senhor enviou o profeta Natã para contar esta história a Davi: “Dois homens moravam em certa cidade. Um deles era um homem rico e o outro, pobre.

Y ENVIÓ Jehová á Nathán á David, el cual viniendo á él, díjole: Había dos hombres en una ciudad, el uno rico, y el otro pobre.

And the LORD sent Nathan unto David. And he came unto him, and said unto him, There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor.

The LORD sent Nathan to David. He came to him, and said to him, “There were two men in one city: the one rich, and the other poor.

O rico era dono de rebanhos de ovelhas e gado;

El rico tenía numerosas ovejas y vacas:

The rich man had exceeding many flocks and herds:

The rich man had very many flocks and herds,

o pobre, porém, possuía somente uma ovelha que ele comprou quando era bem pequena e a criou com muito amor. Essa ovelha era o animalzinho de estimação de seus filhos. Comia com ele no mesmo prato; bebia com ele do mesmo copo. Era tratada com tanto carinho pelo seu dono que até dormia em seus braços, como se fosse uma de suas filhinhas.

Mas el pobre no tenía más que una sola cordera, que él había comprado y criado, y que había crecido con él y con sus hijos juntamente, comiendo de su bocado, y bebiendo de su vaso, y durmiendo en su seno: y teníala como á una hija.

But the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it did eat of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was unto him as a daughter.

but the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and raised. It grew up together with him and with his children. It ate of his own food, drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was like a daughter to him.

“Certo dia chegou um viajante à casa do homem rico. Este, querendo preparar uma boa refeição para o seu visitante, resolveu matar uma ovelha. Mas não quis matar nenhum animal dos seus rebanhos; ao contrário, tomou a ovelha do homem pobre, matou-a e preparou com ela o banquete para o seu visitante”.

Y vino uno de camino al hombre rico; y él no quiso tomar de sus ovejas y de sus vacas, para guisar al caminante que le había venido, sino que tomó la oveja de aquel hombre pobre, y aderezóla para aquél que le había venido.

And there came a traveller unto the rich man, and he spared to take of his own flock and of his own herd, to dress for the wayfaring man that was come unto him; but took the poor man’s lamb, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.

A traveler came to the rich man, and he didn’t want to take of his own flock and of his own herd to prepare for the wayfaring man who had come to him, but took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him.”

Davi ficou furioso ao ouvir essa história, e disse: “Juro pelo nome do Senhor que o homem que fez isso deve ser morto.

Entonces se encendió el furor de David en gran manera contra aquel hombre, y dijo á Nathán: Vive Jehová, que el que tal hizo es digno de muerte.

And David’s anger was greatly kindled against the man; and he said to Nathan, As the LORD liveth, the man that hath done this thing shall surely die:

David’s anger burned hot against the man, and he said to Nathan, “As the LORD lives, the man who has done this deserves to die!

E por haver roubado a ovelha, e por ter mostrado um coração duro e insensível, deve restituir quatro ovelhas ao homem pobre”.

Y que él debe pagar la cordera con cuatro tantos, porque hizo esta tal cosa, y no tuvo misericordia.

And he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity.

He must restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing and because he had no pity!”

Então Natã disse a Davi: “Você é o homem rico da história! Assim diz o Senhor, o Deus de Israel: ‘Eu o ungi rei de Israel e o livrei das mãos de Saul.

Entonces dijo Nathán á David: Tú eres aquel hombre. Así ha dicho Jehová, Dios de Israel: Yo te ungí por rey sobre Israel, y te libré de la mano de Saúl;

And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;

Nathan said to David, “You are the man! This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.

O palácio dele agora é seu; as mulheres dele agora são suas; também dei a você os reinos de Judá e de Israel. E se isso não bastasse, eu lhe daria muito mais.

Yo te dí la casa de tu señor, y las mujeres de tu señor en tu seno: demás de esto te dí la casa de Israel y de Judá; y si esto es poco, yo te añadiré tales y tales cosas.

And I gave thee thy master’s house, and thy master’s wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things.

I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your bosom, and gave you the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that would have been too little, I would have added to you many more such things.

Por que, então, você não respeitou a palavra do Senhor e praticou uma coisa tão horrível? Você matou Urias, o heteu, com a espada dos amonitas e ainda roubou a mulher dele!

¿Por qué pues tuviste en poco la palabra de Jehová, haciendo lo malo delante de sus ojos? A Uría Hetheo heriste á cuchillo, y tomaste por tu mujer á su mujer, y á él mataste con el cuchillo de los hijos de Ammón.

Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.

Why have you despised the LORD’s word, to do that which is evil in his sight? You have struck Uriah the Hittite with the sword, have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.

Por isso, daqui em diante, a espada estará sempre sobre a sua família, pois você me desprezou ao tomar a esposa do heteu Urias’.

Por lo cual ahora no se apartará jamás de tu casa la espada; por cuanto me menospreciaste, y tomaste la mujer de Uría Hetheo para que fuese tu mujer.

Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.

Now therefore the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised me and have taken Uriah the Hittite’s wife to be your wife.’

“Assim diz o Senhor: ‘Por causa do seu mau procedimento, farei com que a sua própria família se revolte contra você. Darei as suas esposas a outro homem que terá relações com elas em plena luz do dia.

Así ha dicho Jehová: He aquí yo levantaré sobre ti el mal de tu misma casa, y tomaré tus mujeres delante de tus ojos, y las daré á tu prójimo, el cual yacerá con tus mujeres á la vista de este sol.

Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.

“This is what the LORD says: ‘Behold, I will raise up evil against you out of your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he will lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.

Você fez isso em segredo, mas com você será feito abertamente, à vista de todo o Israel’ ”.

Porque tú lo hiciste en secreto; mas yo haré esto delante de todo Israel, y delante del sol.

For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.

For you did this secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.’”

“Pequei contra o Senhor”, confessou Davi a Natã. Então Natã lhe respondeu: “Sim, realmente você pecou; mas Deus lhe concedeu perdão pelo seu pecado. Você não morrerá.

Entonces dijo David á Nathán: Pequé contra Jehová. Y Nathán dijo á David: También Jehová ha remitido tu pecado: no morirás.

And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.

David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the LORD.” Nathan said to David, “The LORD also has put away your sin. You will not die.

Porém, com o seu procedimento, deu oportunidade aos inimigos de desprezarem o Senhor. Por isso o filho que você teve com Bate-Seba vai morrer”.

Mas por cuanto con este negocio hiciste blasfemar á los enemigos de Jehová, el hijo que te ha nacido morirá ciertamente.

Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die.

However, because by this deed you have given great occasion to the LORD’s enemies to blaspheme, the child also who is born to you will surely die.”

Depois dessa conversa com Davi, Natã voltou para sua casa. E o Senhor permitiu que o filho de Davi com a mulher de Urias ficasse mortalmente doente.

Y Nathán se volvió á su casa. Y Jehová hirió al niño que la mujer de Uría había parido á David, y enfermó gravemente.

And Nathan departed unto his house. And the LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife bare unto David, and it was very sick.

Then Nathan departed to his house. The LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife bore to David, and he was very sick.

Davi sofria com a doença da criança; em desespero ele implorou a Deus que salvasse o seu filho. Ele ficou sem comer e passou a noite prostrado diante do Senhor, em oração.

Entonces rogó David á Dios por el niño; y ayunó David, recogióse, y pasó la noche acostado en tierra.

David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth.

David therefore begged God for the child; and David fasted, and went in and lay all night on the ground.

Os oficiais do palácio procuraram levantá-lo do chão e fazê-lo comer alguma coisa, mas Davi se recusou.

Y levantándose los ancianos de su casa fueron á él para hacerlo levantar de tierra; mas él no quiso, ni comió con ellos pan.

And the elders of his house arose, and went to him, to raise him up from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them.

The elders of his house arose beside him, to raise him up from the earth; but he would not, and he didn’t eat bread with them.

No sétimo dia, a criança morreu. Os conselheiros de Davi estavam com medo de dar a notícia ao rei, e comentavam: “Que vamos fazer? Nosso rei já estava tão abatido enquanto a criança ainda estava viva; como ficará ele diante da notícia da sua morte? Ele poderá cometer alguma loucura”.

Y al séptimo día murió el niño; pero sus siervos no osaban hacerle saber que el niño era muerto, diciendo entre sí: Cuando el niño aun vivía, le hablábamos, y no quería oir nuestra voz: ¿pues cuánto más mal le hará, si le dijéremos que el niño es muerto?

And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spake unto him, and he would not hearken unto our voice: how will he then vex himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?

On the seventh day, the child died. David’s servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him and he didn’t listen to our voice. How will he then harm himself if we tell him that the child is dead?”

Davi, percebendo os cochichos entre os seus conselheiros, compreendeu o que havia acontecido e perguntou: “A criança morreu?” “Sim”, responderam eles. “A criança está morta”.

Mas David viendo á sus siervos hablar entre sí, entendió que el niño era muerto; por lo que dijo David á sus siervos: ¿Es muerto el niño? Y ellos respondieron: Muerto es.

But when David saw that his servants whispered, David perceived that the child was dead: therefore David said unto his servants, Is the child dead? And they said, He is dead.

But when David saw that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead; and David said to his servants, “Is the child dead?” They said, “He is dead.”

Então Davi se ergueu, lavou-se, penteouse, trocou de roupa e foi à casa do Senhor e o adorou. Depois voltou ao palácio, pediu que lhe preparassem pão e ele comeu.

Entonces David se levantó de tierra, y lavóse y ungióse, y mudó sus ropas, y entró á la casa de Jehová, y adoró. Y después vino á su casa, y demandó, y pusiéronle pan, y comió.

Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the LORD, and worshipped: then he came to his own house; and when he required, they set bread before him, and he did eat.

Then David arose from the earth, and washed and anointed himself, and changed his clothing; and he came into the LORD’s house, and worshiped. Then he came to his own house; and when he requested, they set bread before him and he ate.

Seus conselheiros estavam perplexos; não podiam compreender o que estava acontecendo, e falaram: “Não entendemos a sua maneira de proceder, ó rei! Enquanto a criança ainda vivia, o senhor jejuava e chorava; agora que a criança está morta, o senhor se levanta e come pão!”

Y dijéronle sus siervos: ¿Qué es esto que has hecho? Por el niño, viviendo aún, ayunabas y llorabas; y él muerto, levantástete y comiste pan.

Then said his servants unto him, What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive; but when the child was dead, thou didst rise and eat bread.

Then his servants said to him, “What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept for the child while he was alive, but when the child was dead, you rose up and ate bread.”

Davi respondeu: “Eu jejuei e chorei enquanto a criança ainda vivia porque tinha esperança de que o Senhor tivesse misericórdia de mim e deixasse a criança viver.

Y él respondió: Viviendo aún el niño, yo ayunaba y lloraba, diciendo: ¿Quién sabe si Dios tendrá compasión de mí, por manera que viva el niño?

And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept: for I said, Who can tell whether GOD will be gracious to me, that the child may live?

He said, “While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, ‘Who knows whether the LORD will not be gracious to me, that the child may live?’

Mas agora que ela morreu, de que me adianta jejuar? Poderei eu trazê-la de volta à vida? Eu, sim, irei para onde ela está; ela, porém, nunca voltará a mim”.

Mas ahora que ya es muerto, ¿para qué tengo de ayunar? ¿podré yo hacerle volver? Yo voy á él, mas él no volverá á mí.

But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.

But now he is dead. Why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”

E Davi procurou consolar a sua mulher Bate-Seba. Ele teve relações com ela e ela ficou grávida outra vez e deu à luz outro filho, a quem Davi chamou de Salomão. E o Senhor o amou

Y consoló David á Bath-sheba su mujer, y entrando á ella, durmió con ella; y parió un hijo, y llamó su nombre Salomón, al cual amó Jehová:

And David comforted Bath-sheba his wife, and went in unto her, and lay with her: and she bare a son, and he called his name Solomon: and the LORD loved him.

David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her. She bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. The LORD loved him;

e mandou o profeta Natã dar uma mensagem a Davi. Natã chamou o menino de Jedidias.

Que envió por mano de Nathán profeta, y llamó su nombre Jedidiah, á causa de Jehová.

And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he called his name Jedidiah, because of the LORD.

and he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and he named him Jedidiah, for the LORD’s sake.

Nessa mesma época, Joabe se colocou à frente do exército israelita e cercou a cidade de Rabá, capital de Amom e conquistou a fortaleza real.

Y Joab peleaba contra Rabba de los hijos de Ammón, y tomó la ciudad real.

And Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.

Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.

E ele mandou mensageiros a Davi, dizendo: “Batalhei contra a cidade de Rabá e conquistei seus reservatórios de água.

Entonces envió Joab mensajeros á David, diciendo: Yo he peleado contra Rabba, y he tomado la ciudad de las aguas.

And Joab sent messengers to David, and said, I have fought against Rabbah, and have taken the city of waters.

Joab sent messengers to David, and said, “I have fought against Rabbah. Yes, I have taken the city of waters.

Agora reúna o restante dos soldados, cerque a cidade e tome-a, para que no final a vitória seja sua e não minha”.

Junta pues ahora el pueblo que queda, y asienta campo contra la ciudad, y tómala; porque tomando yo la ciudad, no se llame de mi nombre.

Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and encamp against the city, and take it: lest I take the city, and it be called after my name.

Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and encamp against the city and take it; lest I take the city, and it be called by my name.”

Então Davi convocou todos os seus soldados, foi até Rabá e tomou-a.

Y juntando David todo el pueblo, fué contra Rabba, y combatióla, y tomóla.

And David gathered all the people together, and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and took it.

David gathered all the people together and went to Rabbah, and fought against it and took it.

Tirou a coroa da cabeça do seu rei e colocou-a sobre a sua própria cabeça. A coroa do rei pesava cerca de trinta e cinco quilos. Ela era feita de ouro puro e enfeitada de pedras preciosas. Ele trouxe uma grande quantidade de bens da cidade.

Y tomó la corona de su rey de su cabeza, la cual pesaba un talento de oro, y tenía piedras preciosas; y fué puesta sobre la cabeza de David. Y trajo muy grande despojo de la ciudad.

And he took their king’s crown from off his head, the weight whereof was a talent of gold with the precious stones: and it was set on David’s head. And he brought forth the spoil of the city in great abundance.

He took the crown of their king from off his head; and its weight was a talent of gold, and in it were precious stones; and it was set on David’s head. He brought a great quantity of plunder out of the city.

Os habitantes da cidade foram feitos escravos de Davi. Ele os obrigou a trabalhar com serras, picaretas, machados e nos fornos de tijolos. Esse foi o tratamento que Davi impôs a todas as cidades dos amonitas. Depois ele e seu exército voltaram para Jerusalém.

Sacó además el pueblo que estaba en ella, y púsolo debajo de sierras, y de trillos de hierro, y de hachas de hierro; é hízolos pasar por hornos de ladrillos: y lo mismo hizo á todas las ciudades de los hijos de Ammón. Volvióse luego David con todo el pueblo á Jerusalem.

And he brought forth the people that were therein, and put them under saws, and under harrows of iron, and under axes of iron, and made them pass through the brickkiln: and thus did he unto all the cities of the children of Ammon. So David and all the people returned unto Jerusalem.

He brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work under saws, under iron picks, under axes of iron, and made them go to the brick kiln; and he did so to all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
