1 S ucedeu depois destas coisas que, tendo Nabote, o jizreelita, uma vinha em Jizrreel, junto ao palácio de Acabe, rei de Samária,

¶ And it came to pass after these things that Naboth of Jezreel had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, next to the palace of Ahab, king of Samaria.

2 f alou este a Nabote, dizendo: Dá-me a tua vinha, para que me sirva de horta, porque está vizinha, ao pé da minha casa; e te darei por ela outra vinha melhor; ou, se desejares, dar-te-ei o seu valor em dinheiro.

And Ahab spoke unto Naboth, saying, Give me thy vineyard that I may have it for a garden of herbs because it is next to my house, and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it; or if it seems good unto thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money.

3 R espondeu, porém, Nabote a Acabe: Guarde-me o Senhor de que eu te dê a herança de meus pais.

And Naboth replied unto Ahab, The LORD keep me from giving thee the inheritance of my fathers.

4 E ntão Acabe veio para sua casa, desgostoso e indignado, por causa da palavra que Nabote, o jizreelita, lhe falara; pois este lhe dissera: Não te darei a herança de meus pais. Tendo-se deitado na sua cama, virou a rosto, e não quis comer.

And Ahab came into his house, sad and angry, because of the word which Naboth of Jezreel had spoken to him, for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And he lay down upon his bed and turned away his face and would eat no bread.

5 M as, vindo a ele Jezabel, sua mulher, lhe disse: Por que está o teu espírito tão desgostoso que não queres comer?

¶ And Jezebel, his wife, came to him and said unto him, Why is thy spirit so sad that thou dost eat no bread?

6 E le lhe respondeu: Porque falei a Nabote, o jizreelita, e lhe disse: Dá-me a tua vinha por dinheiro; ou, se te apraz, te darei outra vinha em seu lugar. Ele, porém, disse: Não te darei a minha vinha.

And he said unto her, Because I spoke with Naboth of Jezreel and said unto him, Give me thy vineyard for money; or else, if it please thee, I will give thee another vineyard for it; and he answered, I will not give thee my vineyard.

7 A o que Jezabel, sua mulher, lhe disse: Governas tu agora no reino de Israel? Levanta-te, come, e alegre-se o teu coração; eu te darei a vinha de Nabote, o jizreelita.

And Jezebel, his wife, said unto him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? Arise and eat bread and let thy heart be merry; I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth of Jezreel.

8 E ntão escreveu cartas em nome de Acabe e, selando-as com o sinete dele, mandou-as aos anciãos e aos nobres que habitavam com Nabote na sua cidade.

So she wrote letters in Ahab’s name and sealed them with his seal and sent the letters unto the elders and to the nobles that were in his city dwelling with Naboth.

9 A ssim escreveu nas cartas: Apregoai um jejum, e ponde Nabote diante do povo.

And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast and set Naboth at the head of the people

10 E ponde defronte dele dois homens, filhos de Belial, que testemunhem contra ele, dizendo: Blasfemaste contra Deus e contra o rei. Depois conduzi-o para fora, e apedrejai-o até que morra.

and set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out and stone him that he may die.

11 P elo que os homens da cidade dele, isto é, os anciãos e os nobres que habitavam na sua cidade, fizeram como Jezabel lhes ordenara, conforme estava escrito nas cartas que ela lhes mandara.

And the men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who were the inhabitants in his city, did as Jezebel had sent unto them and as it was written in the letters which she had sent unto them.

12 A pregoaram um jejum, e puseram Nabote diante do povo.

They proclaimed a fast and set Naboth at the head of the people.

13 T ambém vieram dois homens, filhos de Belial, e sentaram-se defronte dele; e estes filhos de Belial testemunharam contra Nabote perante o povo, dizendo: Nabote blasfemou contra Deus e contra o rei. Então o conduziram para fora da cidade e o apedrejaram, de sorte que morreu.

Then the two men, sons of Belial, came in and sat before him; and those men of Belial witnessed against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth blasphemed God and the king. Then they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones that he died.

14 D epois mandaram dizer a Jezabel: Nabote foi apedrejado e morreu.

Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, Naboth has been stoned and is dead.

15 O ra, ouvindo Jezabel que Nabote fora apedrejado e morrera, disse a Acabe: Levanta-te e toma posse da vinha de Nabote, e jizreelita, a qual ele recusou dar-te por dinheiro; porque Nabote já não vive, mas é morto.

And it came to pass when Jezebel heard that Naboth had been stoned and was dead that she said to Ahab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth of Jezreel which he refused to give thee for money, for Naboth is not alive, but dead.

16 Q uando Acabe ouviu que Nabote já era morto, levantou-se para descer ã vinha de Nabote, o jizreelita, a fim de tomar posse dela.

And it came to pass when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth of Jezreel, to take possession of it.

17 E ntão veio a palavra do Senhor a Elias, o tisbita, dizendo:

¶ Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah, the Tishbite, saying,

18 L evanta-te, desce para encontrar-te com Acabe, rei de Israel, que está em Samária. Eis que está na vinha de Nabote, aonde desceu a fim de tomar posse dela.

Arise, go down to meet Ahab, king of Israel, who is in Samaria; behold, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, where he is gone down to possess it.

19 E falar-lhe-ás, dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor: Porventura não mataste e tomaste a herança? Falar-lhe-ás mais, dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor: No lugar em que os cães lamberam o sangue de Nabote, lamberão também o teu próprio sangue.

And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus hath the LORD said, Hast thou murdered and also taken possession? And thou shalt speak unto him again, saying, Thus hath the LORD said, In the same place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall the dogs also lick thy blood, even thine.

20 A o que disse Acabe a Elias: Já me achaste, ó inimigo meu? Respondeu ele: Achei-te; porque te vendeste para fazeres o que é mau aos olhos do Senhor.

And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast thou found me, O my enemy? And he answered, I have found thee because thou hast sold thyself to work evil in the sight of the LORD.

21 E is que trarei o mal sobre ti; lançarei fora a tua posteridade, e arrancarei de Acabe todo homem, escravo ou livre, em Israel;

Behold, I will bring evil upon thee and will burn away thy posterity and will cut off from Ahab him that pisses against the wall and he that is kept and he that is left in Israel.

22 e farei a tua casa como a casa de Jeroboão, filho de Nebate, e como a casa de Baasa, filho de Aías, por causa da provocação com que me provocaste ã ira, fazendo Israel pecar.

And I will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat and like the house of Baasha, the son of Ahijah, for the provocation with which thou hast provoked me to anger and made Israel to sin.

23 T ambém acerca de Jezabel falou o Senhor, dizendo: Os cães comerão Jezabel junto ao antemuro de Jizreel.

And of Jezebel, the LORD has also spoken, saying, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the rampart of Jezreel.

24 Q uem morrer a Acabe na cidade, os cães o comerão; e o que lhe morrer no campo, as aves do céu o comerão.

Him that dies of Ahab in the city, the dogs shall eat, and him that dies in the field, shall the fowls of the air eat.

25 ( Não houve, porém, ninguém como Acabe, que se vendeu para fazer o que era mau aos olhos do Senhor, sendo instigado por Jezabel, sua mulher.

(Truly there was none like unto Ahab, who sold himself to work wickedness in the sight of the LORD, because Jezebel his wife incited him.

26 E fez grandes abominações, seguindo os ídolos, conforme tudo o que fizeram os amorreus, os quais o Senhor lançou fora da sua possessão, de diante dos filhos de Israel.)

He was very abominable, following idols, according to all the things that the Amorites did, whom the LORD cast out before the sons of Israel.)

27 S ucedeu, pois, que Acabe, ouvindo estas palavras, rasgou as suas vestes, cobriu de saco a sua carne, e jejuou; e jazia em saco, e andava humildemente.

And it came to pass, when Ahab heard those words, that he rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his flesh and fasted and slept in sackcloth and went softly.

28 E ntão veio a palavra do Senhor a Elias, o tisbita, dizendo:

Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah, the Tishbite, saying,

29 N ão viste que Acabe se humilha perante mim? Por isso, porquanto se humilha perante mim, não trarei o mal enquanto ele viver, mas nos dias de seu filho trarei o mal sobre a sua casa.

Seest thou how Ahab has humbled himself before me? Because he has humbled himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days, but in his son’s days I will bring the evil upon his house.
