< Luke 5 >

1 Now it came about that while the people came pushing to be near him, and to have knowledge of the word of God, he was by a wide stretch of water named Gennesaret;
E aconteceu que, apertando-o a multidão, para ouvir a palavra de Deus, estava elle junto ao lago de Genezareth;
2 And he saw two boats by the edge of the water, but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets.
E viu estar dois barcos junto á praia do lago; e os pescadores, havendo descido d'elles, estavam lavando as redes.
3 And he got into one of the boats, the property of Simon, and made a request to him to go a little way out from the land. And being seated he gave the people teaching from the boat.
E, entrando n'um dos barcos, que era o de Simão, pediu-lhe que o affastasse um pouco da terra; e, assentando-se, ensinava do barco a multidão.
4 And when his talk was ended, he said to Simon, Go out into deep water, and let down your nets for fish.
E, quando acabou de fallar, disse a Simão: Faze-te ao mar alto, e lançae as vossas redes para pescar.
5 And Simon, answering, said, Master, we were working all night and we took nothing: but at your word I will let down the nets.
E, respondendo Simão, disse-lhe: Mestre, havendo trabalhado toda a noite, nada apanhámos; mas, sobre tua palavra, lançarei a rede.
6 And when they had done this, they got such a great number of fish that it seemed as if their nets would be broken;
E, fazendo assim, colheram uma grande quantidade de peixes, e rompia-se-lhes a rede.
7 And they made signs to their friends in the other boat to come to their help. And they came, and the two boats were so full that they were going down.
E fizeram signal aos companheiros que estavam no outro barco, para que os fossem ajudar. E foram, e encheram ambos os barcos, de maneira tal que quasi iam a pique.
8 But Simon, when he saw it, went down at the knees of Jesus and said, Go away from me, O Lord, for I am a sinner.
E Simão Pedro, vendo isto, prostrou-se aos pés de Jesus, dizendo: Senhor, ausenta-te de mim, que sou um homem peccador.
9 For he was full of wonder and so were all those who were with him, at the number of fish which they had taken;
Porque o espanto se apoderara d'elle, e de todos os que com elle estavam, por causa da pesca de peixe que haviam feito;
10 And so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were working with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Have no fear; from this time forward you will be a fisher of men.
E, de egual modo, tambem de Thiago e João, filhos de Zebedeo, que eram companheiros de Simão. E disse Jesus a Simão: Não temas: de agora em diante serás pescador de homens.
11 And when they had got their boats to the land, they gave up everything and went after him.
E, levando os barcos para terra, deixando tudo, o seguiram.
12 And it came about that while he was in one of the towns, there was a leper there: and when he saw Jesus he went down on his face in prayer to him, saying, Lord, if it is your pleasure, you have power to make me clean.
E aconteceu que, estando n'uma das cidades, eis que um homem cheio de lepra, vendo a Jesus, prostrou-se sobre o rosto, e rogou-lhe, dizendo: Senhor, se quizeres, bem podes limpar-me.
13 And he put out his hand to him and said, It is my pleasure; be clean. And straight away his disease went from him.
E elle, estendendo a mão, tocou-o, dizendo: Quero; sê limpo. E logo a lepra desappareceu d'elle.
14 And he gave him orders: Say nothing to any man, but let the priest see you and give an offering so that you may be made clean, as the law of Moses says, and for a witness to them.
E ordenou-lhe que a ninguem o dissesse. Porém vae, disse, mostra-te ao sacerdote, e offerece, pela tua purificação, o que Moysés determinou, para que lhes sirva de testemunho.
15 But news of him went out all the more, in every direction, and great numbers of people came together to give hearing to his words and to be made well from their diseases.
Porém a sua fama se dilatava ainda mais, e ajuntavam-se muitas gentes para o ouvirem e para serem por elle curados das suas enfermidades.
16 But he went away by himself to a waste place for prayer.
Porém elle retirava-se para os desertos, e ali orava.
17 And it came about that on one of these days he was teaching; and some Pharisees and teachers of the law were seated there, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judaea and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was with him, to make those who were ill free from their diseases.
E aconteceu que, n'um d'aquelles dias, estava ensinando, e estavam ali assentados phariseos e doutores da lei, que tinham vindo de todas as aldeias da Galilea, e da Judea, e de Jerusalem, e a virtude do Senhor estava com elle para os curar.
18 And some men had with them, on a bed, a man who was ill, without power of moving; and they made attempts to get him in and put him before Jesus.
E eis que uns homens transportaram n'uma cama um homem que estava paralytico, e procuravam introduzil-o, e pôl-o diante d'elle;
19 And because of the mass of people, there was no way to get him in; so they went up on the top of the house and let him down through the roof, on his bed, into the middle in front of Jesus.
E, não achando por onde podessem introduzil-o, por causa da multidão, subiram ao telhado, e pelas telhas o baixaram com a cama, até ao meio, diante de Jesus.
20 And seeing their faith he said, Man, you have forgiveness for your sins.
E, vendo elle a fé d'elles, disse-lhe: Homem, os teus peccados te são perdoados.
21 And the scribes and Pharisees were having an argument, saying, Who is this, who has no respect for God? who is able to give forgiveness for sins, but God only?
E os escribas e os phariseos começaram a arrazoar, dizendo: Quem é este que diz blasphemias? Quem pode perdoar peccados, senão só Deus?
22 But Jesus, who had knowledge of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning in your hearts?
Jesus, porém, conhecendo os seus pensamentos, respondeu, e disse-lhes: Que arrazoaes em vossos corações?
23 Which is the simpler: to say, You have forgiveness for your sins; or to say, Get up and go?
Qual é mais facil? dizer: Os teus peccados te são perdoados; ou dizer: Levanta-te, e anda?
24 But so that you may see that on earth the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins, (he said to the man who was ill, ) I say to you, Get up, and take up your bed, and go into your house.
Ora, para que saibaes que o Filho do homem tem sobre a terra poder de perdoar os peccados (disse ao paralytico), A ti te digo: Levanta-te, toma a tua cama, e vae para tua casa.
25 And straight away he got up before them, and took up his bed and went away to his house giving praise to God.
E, levantando-se logo diante d'elles, e tomando a cama em que estava deitado, foi para sua casa, glorificando a Deus.
26 And wonder overcame them all, and they gave glory to God; and they were full of fear, saying, We have seen strange things today.
E todos ficaram maravilhados, e glorificaram a Deus; e ficaram cheios de temor, dizendo: Hoje vimos prodigios.
27 And after these things he went out, and saw Levi, a tax-farmer, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and said to him, Come after me.
E, depois d'estas coisas, saiu, e viu um publicano, chamado Levi, assentado na recebedoria, e disse-lhe: Segue-me.
28 And giving up his business, he got up and went after him.
E elle, deixando tudo, levantou-se e o seguiu.
29 And Levi made a great feast for him in his house: and a great number of tax-farmers and others were seated at table with them.
E fez-lhe Levi um grande banquete em sua casa; e havia ali uma multidão de publicanos e outros que estavam com elles á mesa.
30 And the Pharisees and their scribes made protests against his disciples, saying, Why do you take food and drink with tax-farmers and sinners?
E os escribas d'elles, e os phariseos, murmuravam contra os seus discipulos, dizendo: Porque comeis e bebeis com publicanos e peccadores?
31 And Jesus, answering, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill.
E Jesus, respondendo, disse-lhes: Não necessitam de medico os que estão sãos, mas, sim, os que estão enfermos;
32 I have come, not to get the upright, but sinners, so that they may be turned from their sins.
Eu não vim para chamar os justos, mas, sim, os peccadores ao arrependimento.
33 And they said to him, The disciples of John frequently go without food, and make prayers, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees; but your disciples take food and drink.
Disseram-lhe então elles: Porque jejuam os discipulos de João muitas vezes, e fazem orações, como tambem os dos phariseos, porém os teus comem e bebem?
34 And Jesus said, Are you able to make the friends of the newly-married man go without food when he is with them?
Mas elle lhes disse: Podeis vós fazer jejuar os filhos das bodas, emquanto o esposo está com elles?
35 But the days will come when he will be taken away from them, and then they will go without food.
Dias virão, porém, em que o esposo lhes será tirado, e então, n'aquelles dias, jejuarão.
36 And he said to them, in a story, No man takes a bit of cloth from a new coat and puts it on to an old coat, for so the new coat would be damaged and the bit from the new would not go well with the old.
E disse-lhes tambem uma parabola: Ninguem deita remendo de panno novo em vestido velho; d'outra maneira o novo romperá o velho, e o remendo novo não condiz com o velho.
37 And no man puts new wine into old wine-skins, for fear that the skins will be burst by the new wine, and the wine be let out, and the skins come to destruction.
E ninguem deita vinho novo em odres velhos; d'outra maneira o vinho novo romperá os odres, e entornar-se-ha o vinho, e os odres se estragarão;
38 But new wine has to be put into new wine-skins.
Mas o vinho novo deve deitar-se em odres novos, e ambos juntamente se conservarão.
39 And no man, having had old wine, has any desire for new, for he says, The old is better.
E ninguem que beber o velho quer logo o novo, porque diz: Melhor é o velho.
