Ezekiel 37
1 The hand of the Lord had been on me, and he took me out in the spirit of the Lord and put me down in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones;
A mão do SENHOR veio sobre mim, e me tirou por meio do Espírito do SENHOR, e me pôs no meio de um vale que estava cheio de ossos.
2 And he made me go past them round about: and I saw that there was a very great number of them on the face of the wide valley, and they were very dry.
E me fez passar perto deles ao redor; e eis que havia muitos sobre a face do vale, e eis que estavam sequíssimos.
3 And he said to me, Son of man, is it possible for these bones to come to life? And I made answer, and said, It is for you to say, O Lord.
E perguntou-me: Filho do homem, por acaso viverão estes ossos? E eu respondi: Senhor DEUS, tu [o] sabes.
4 And again he said to me, Be a prophet to these bones, and say to them, O you dry bones, give ear to the word of the Lord.
Então disse-me: Profetiza sobre estes ossos, e dize-lhes: Ossos secos, ouvi a palavra do SENHOR.
5 This is what the Lord has said to these bones: See, I will make breath come into you so that you may come to life;
Assim diz o Senhor DEUS a estes ossos: Eis que eu farei entrar espírito em vós, e vivereis.
6 And I will put muscles on you and make flesh come on you, and put skin over you, and breath into you, so that you may have life; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
E porei nervos sobre vós, farei subir carne sobre vós, cobrirei de pele sobre vós, porei espírito em vós, e vivereis; e sabereis que eu sou o SENHOR.
7 So I gave the word as I was ordered: and at my words there was a shaking of the earth, and the bones came together, bone to bone.
Então profetizei como havia me sido mandado; e houve um ruído enquanto eu profetizava, e eis [que se fez] um tremor, e os ossos se aproximaram, cada osso a seu osso.
8 And looking I saw that there were muscles on them and flesh came up, and they were covered with skin: but there was no breath in them.
E olhei, e eis que [havia] nervos sobre eles, e a carne subiu, e a pele cobriu por cima deles; porém não havia espírito neles.
9 And he said to me, Be a prophet to the wind, be a prophet, son of man, and say to the wind, The Lord has said: Come from the four winds, O wind, breathing on these dead so that they may come to life.
Então me disse: Profetiza ao espírito, profetiza, ó filho do homem, e dize ao espírito: Assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Vem dos quatro ventos, ó espírito, e sopra sobre estes mortos, para que vivam.
10 And I gave the word at his orders, and breath came into them, and they came to life and got up on their feet, a very great army.
E profetizei como havia me sido mandado; então o espírito entrou neles, e viveram, e se puseram de pé, um exército extremamente grande.
11 Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones are all the children of Israel: and see, they are saying, Our bones have become dry our hope is gone, we are cut off completely.
Então me disse: Filho do homem, estes ossos são toda a casa de Israel. Eis que eles dizem: Nossos ossos se secaram, e nossa esperança pereceu; fomos exterminados.
12 For this cause be a prophet to them, and say, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am opening the resting-places of your dead, and I will make you come up out of your resting-places, O my people; and I will take you into the land of Israel.
Portanto profetiza, e dize-lhes: Assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Eis que eu abrirei vossos sepulturas, ó povo meu, e vos farei subir de vossas sepulturas, e vos trarei à terra de Israel.
13 And you will be certain that I am the Lord by my opening the resting-places of your dead and making you come up out of your resting-places, O my people.
E sabereis que eu sou o SENHOR, quando eu abrir vossas sepulturas, e vos fizer subir de vossas sepulturas, ó povo meu.
14 And I will put my spirit in you, so that you may come to life, and I will give you a rest in your land: and you will be certain that I the Lord have said it and have done it, says the Lord.
E porei meu espírito em vós, e vivereis, e vos porei em vossa terra; e sabereis que eu, o SENHOR, falei e fiz, diz o SENHOR.
15 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
E veio a mim a palavra do SENHOR, dizendo:
16 And you, son of man, take one stick, writing on it, For Judah and for the children of Israel who are in his company: then take another stick, writing on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and all the children of Israel who are in his company:
Tu, pois, ó filho do homem, toma para ti agora uma vara de madeira, e escreve nela: A Judá, e aos filhos de Israel, seus companheiros. Toma para ti depois outra vara de madeira, e escreve nela: A José, vara de Efraim, e a toda a casa de Israel, seus companheiros.
17 Then, joining them one to another, make them one stick, so that they may be one in your hand.
E junta-as um à outra, para que sejam um para ti como uma só vara de madeira; e serão uma em tua mão.
18 And when the children of your people say to you, Will you not make clear to us what these things have to do with us?
E quando te falarem os filhos de teu povo, dizendo: Por acaso não nos explicarás que tu [queres dizer] com isso?
19 Then say to them, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am taking the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel who are in his company; and I will put it on the stick of Judah and make them one stick, and they will be one in my hand.
[Então] tu lhes dirás: Assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Eis que eu tomo a vara de José que esteve na mão de Efraim, e das tribos de Israel seus companheiros, e os juntarei com ele à vara de Judá, e as farei uma só vara, e serão uma minha mão.
20 And the sticks with your writing on them will be in your hand before their eyes.
E as varas sobre as quais houverdes escrito estarão em tua mão diante dos olhos deles;
21 And say to them, These are the words of the Lord: See, I am taking the children of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and will get them together on every side, and take them into their land:
Dize-lhes, pois: Assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Eis que eu tomarei os filhos de Israel dentre as nações para onde foram, e os ajuntarei desde os arredores e os trarei à sua [própria] terra;
22 And I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king will be king over them all: and they will no longer be two nations, and will no longer be parted into two kingdoms:
E deles farei uma nação na terra, nos montes de Israel; e um único rei será rei deles todos; e nunca mais serão duas nações, nem nunca mais serão divididos em dois reinos;
23 And they will no longer make themselves unclean with their images or with their hated things or with any of their sins: but I will give them salvation from all their turning away in which they have done evil, and will make them clean; and they will be to me a people, and I will be to them a God.
E nunca mais se contaminarão com seus ídolos, nem com suas abominações, nem com qualquer de suas transgressões; e os livrarei de todas as suas habitações em que pecaram, e os purificarei; assim eles serão meu povo, e eu serei o Deus deles.
24 And my servant David will be king over them; and they will all have one keeper: and they will be guided by my orders and will keep my rules and do them.
E meu servo Davi será rei sobre eles, e todos eles terão um [só] pastor; e andarão em meus juízos, guardarão meus estatutos, e os praticarão.
25 And they will be living in the land which I gave to Jacob, my servant, in which your fathers were living; and they will go on living there, they and their children and their children's children, for ever: and David, my servant, will be their ruler for ever.
E habitarão na terra que dei a meu servo Jacó, na qual vossos pais habitaram; e nela habitarão eles, seus filhos, e os filhos de seus filhos para sempre; e meu servo Davi será o príncipe deles eternamente.
26 And I will make an agreement of peace with them: it will be an eternal agreement with them: and I will have mercy on them and make their numbers great, and will put my holy place among them for ever.
E farei com eles um pacto de paz; será um pacto perpétuo com eles; e os porei, e os multiplicarei, e porei meu santuário no meio deles para sempre.
27 And my House will be over them; and I will be to them a God, and they will be to me a people.
E com eles estará meu tabernáculo; serei o Deus deles, e ele serão meu povo.
28 And the nations will be certain that I who make Israel holy am the Lord, when my holy place is among them for ever.
E as nações saberão que eu, o SENHOR, santifico a Israel, quando meu santuário estiver no meio deles para sempre.
