< 1 Kings 13 >

1 And behold, by the word of the Lord, a man of God went from Judah to Bethel, when Jeroboam was standing over the altar, and burning incense.
Eis que um homem de Deus saiu de Judá pela palavra de Javé a Betel; e Jeroboão estava junto ao altar para queimar incenso.
2 And by the word of the Lord, he cried out against the altar. And he said: “O altar, O altar! Thus says the Lord: ‘Behold, a son will be born to the house of David, Josiah by name. And upon you, he will immolate the priests of the high places, who now burn incense upon you. And upon you, he will burn up the bones of men.’”
Ele gritou contra o altar pela palavra de Iavé, e disse: “Altar! Altar! Javé diz: “Eis que um filho nascerá na casa de Davi, Josias pelo nome”. Em ti ele sacrificará os sacerdotes dos altos que queimam incenso em ti, e eles queimarão os ossos dos homens em ti””.
3 And he gave a sign on the same day, saying: “This will be the sign that the Lord has spoken. Behold, the altar shall be torn apart, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.”
Ele deu um sinal no mesmo dia, dizendo: “Este é o sinal que Javé falou”: Eis que o altar será dividido, e as cinzas que estão sobre ele serão derramadas”.
4 And when the king had heard the word of the man of God, which he had cried out against the altar at Bethel, he extended his hand from the altar, saying, “Apprehend him!” But his hand, which he had extended against him, withered. And he was unable to draw it back to himself.
Quando o rei ouviu o ditado do homem de Deus, que gritou contra o altar em Betel, Jeroboão estendeu a mão do altar, dizendo: “Prendam-no! Sua mão, que ele estendeu contra ele, secou, para que ele não pudesse atraí-la de volta para si mesmo.
5 Also, the altar was torn apart, and the ashes were poured out from the altar, in accord with the sign that the man of God had predicted by the word of the Lord.
O altar também foi dividido, e as cinzas derramadas do altar, de acordo com o sinal que o homem de Deus havia dado pela palavra de Javé.
6 And the king said to the man of God, “Entreat the face of the Lord your God, and pray for me, so that my hand may be restored to me.” And the man of God prayed before the face of the Lord, and the hand of the king was restored to him, and it became as it had been before.
O rei respondeu ao homem de Deus: “Agora intercede pelo favor de Javé, teu Deus, e reza por mim, para que minha mão me seja restaurada novamente”. O homem de Deus intercedeu junto a Iavé, e a mão do rei foi restaurada a ele, e tornou-se como antes.
7 Then the king said to the man of God: “Come home with me, so that you may dine. And I will give you gifts.”
O rei disse ao homem de Deus: “Vem para casa comigo e refresca-te, e eu te darei uma recompensa”.
8 And the man of God responded to the king: “Even if you will give me one half part of your house, I will not go with you, nor eat bread, nor drink water in this place.
O homem de Deus disse ao rei: “Mesmo que você me desse metade de sua casa, eu não entraria com você, nem comeria pão nem beberia água neste lugar;
9 For so it was commanded to me by the word of the Lord, ordering: ‘You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water, nor shall you return by the way that you came.’”
pois assim me foi ordenado pela palavra de Javé, dizendo: 'Você não comerá pão, não beberá água, e não voltará pelo caminho por onde veio'”.
10 Then he departed by another way, and he did not return along the way that he had traveled to Bethel.
Então ele foi por outro caminho, e não voltou pelo caminho que veio para Betel.
11 Now a certain elderly prophet was living in Bethel. His sons went to him, and they described to him all the works which the man of God had accomplished on that day in Bethel. And they described to their father the words that he had spoken to the king.
Agora um velho profeta vivia em Betel, e um de seus filhos veio e lhe contou todas as obras que o homem de Deus havia feito naquele dia em Betel. Eles também contaram a seu pai as palavras que ele havia falado ao rei.
12 And their father said to them, “By which way did he depart?” His sons showed him the way by which the man of God, who had come from Judah, had departed.
O pai deles lhes disse: “Para que lado ele foi?” Agora seus filhos tinham visto para que lado foi o homem de Deus, que veio de Judá.
13 And he said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” And when they had saddled it, he climbed on,
Ele disse a seus filhos: “Sela o burro para mim”. Então eles selaram o jumento para ele; e ele montou sobre ele.
14 and he went away after the man of God. And he found him sitting under a terebinth tree. And he said to him, “Are you the man of God who came from Judah?” And he responded, “I am.”
Ele foi atrás do homem de Deus, e o encontrou sentado debaixo de um carvalho. Ele lhe disse: “Você é o homem de Deus que veio de Judá?”. Ele disse: “Eu sou”.
15 And he said to him, “Come home with me, so that you may eat bread.”
Então ele lhe disse: “Venha para casa comigo e coma pão”.
16 But he said: “I am not able to turn back, nor to go with you. Neither will I eat bread, or drink water in this place.
Ele disse: “Eu não posso voltar com você, nem entrar com você”. Não comerei pão nem beberei água com você neste lugar”.
17 For the Lord has spoken to me, by the word of the Lord, saying, “You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water in that place, nor shall you return by the way that you arrived.”
Pois foi-me dito pela palavra de Javé: “Lá não comerás pão nem beberás água, e não voltes a ir pelo caminho por onde vieste””.
18 And he said to him: “I, too, am a prophet like you. And an Angel spoke to me, by the word of the Lord, saying, ‘Lead him back with you to your house, so that he may eat bread, and drink water.’” And so he deceived him.
Ele lhe disse: “Eu também sou um profeta como você é; e um anjo me falou pela palavra de Javé, dizendo: 'Traga-o de volta com você para sua casa, para que ele possa comer pão e beber água'”. Ele mentiu para ele.
19 And he led him back with him. Then he ate bread and drank water in his house.
Então ele voltou com ele, comeu pão em sua casa, e bebeu água.
20 And while they were sitting at table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet who had led him back.
Enquanto estavam sentados à mesa, a palavra de Javé chegou ao profeta que o trouxe de volta;
21 And he cried out to the man of God who had arrived from Judah, saying: “Thus says the Lord: Because you were not obedient to the mouth of the Lord, and you did not keep the commandment that the Lord your God instructed to you,
e ele gritou ao homem de Deus que veio de Judá, dizendo: “Javé diz: 'Porque foste desobediente à palavra de Javé, e não guardaste o mandamento que Javé teu Deus te ordenou,
22 and you turned back, and ate bread, and drank water in the place where he commanded you that you should not eat bread, nor drink water: your dead body shall not be carried back to the sepulcher of your fathers.”
mas voltaste, e comeste pão e bebeste água no lugar de que ele te disse: “Não comas pão e não bebas água”, teu corpo não virá ao túmulo de teus pais.’”
23 And when he had eaten and had drunk, he saddled his donkey for the prophet whom he had led back.
Depois de ter comido pão e bebido, ele selou o burro para o profeta que ele havia trazido de volta.
24 And when he had departed, a lion found him along the way, and it killed him, and his dead body was left upon the road. Now the donkey was standing beside him. And the lion was standing beside the dead body.
Quando ele se foi, um leão o encontrou por acaso e o matou. Seu corpo foi jogado no caminho e o burro ficou ao lado dele. O leão também permaneceu ao lado do corpo.
25 And behold, men who were passing by saw the dead body lying in the road, with the lion standing beside the body. And they went and made it widely known in the city where that elderly prophet was living.
Eis que os homens passaram e viram o corpo jogado no caminho, e o leão parado ao lado do corpo; e vieram e o contaram na cidade onde o velho profeta vivia.
26 And when that prophet, who had led him back from the way, had heard it, he said: “It is the man of God, who was disobedient to the mouth of the Lord. And the Lord has delivered him to the lion. And it has torn him apart and killed him, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke to him.”
Quando o profeta que o trouxe de volta do caminho ouviu falar disso, ele disse: “É o homem de Deus que foi desobediente à palavra de Javé. Portanto, Javé o entregou ao leão, que o maltratou e o matou, segundo a palavra de Javé que ele lhe falou”.
27 And he said to his sons, “Saddle a donkey for me.” And when they had saddled it,
Ele disse a seus filhos, dizendo: “Sela o burro para mim”, e eles o selaram.
28 and he had departed, he found the dead body lying on the road, with the donkey and the lion standing beside the dead body. The lion did not eat from the dead body, nor did it harm the donkey.
Ele foi e encontrou seu corpo jogado no caminho, e o burro e o leão de pé junto ao corpo. O leão não tinha comido o corpo nem maltratado o burro.
29 Then the prophet took the dead body of the man of God, and he placed it upon the donkey, and returning, he brought it into the city of the elderly prophet, so that he might mourn for him.
O profeta pegou o corpo do homem de Deus, colocou-o sobre o burro e o trouxe de volta. Ele veio à cidade do velho profeta para chorar, e para enterrá-lo.
30 And he placed his dead body in his own sepulcher. And they mourned for him, saying: “Alas! Alas! My brother!”
Ele deitou seu corpo em sua própria sepultura; e eles o lamentaram, dizendo: “Ai de mim, meu irmão”!
31 And when they had mourned over him, he said to his sons: “When I will have died, bury me in the sepulcher in which the man of God was buried. Place my bones beside his bones.
Depois de tê-lo enterrado, ele falou com seus filhos, dizendo: “Quando eu estiver morto, enterrem-me no túmulo onde está enterrado o homem de Deus”. Colocar meus ossos ao lado de seus ossos”.
32 For certainly, the word will arrive, which he predicted by the word of the Lord, against the altar, which is in Bethel, and against all the shrines of the high places, which are in the cities of Samaria.”
Pois o ditado que ele gritou pela palavra de Javé contra o altar em Betel, e contra todas as casas dos altos que estão nas cidades de Samaria, certamente acontecerá”.
33 After these words, Jeroboam did not turn back from his very evil way. Instead, to the contrary, he made priests for the high places out of the least of the people. Whosoever was willing, he filled his hand, and he became a priest of the high places.
Depois disso, Jeroboam não se desviou de seu caminho maléfico, mas novamente fez sacerdotes dos lugares altos entre todo o povo. Quem quisesse, ele o consagrou, para que houvesse sacerdotes dos altos escalões.
34 And for this reason, the house of Jeroboam sinned, and was uprooted, and was wiped from the face of the earth.
Esta coisa se tornou pecado para a casa de Jeroboão, mesmo para cortá-lo e destruí-lo da superfície da terra.
