Ezekiel 14
1 Then came there unto me men, of the elders of Israel, —and sat before me—
E vieram a mim alguns homens dos anciãos de Israel, e se assentaram diante de mim.
2 And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
Então veiu a mim a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:
3 Son of man These men have brought up their manufactured gods upon their hear, And their stumbling-block of iniquity, have they set straight before their face, —Shall I be at all enquired of by them?
Filho do homem, estes homens levantaram os seus idolos sobre os seus corações, e o tropeço da sua maldade pozeram diante da sua face; porventura pois devéras me perguntam?
4 Therefore speak unto them and say unto them, Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, Any man whatsoever of the house of Israel Who shall bring up his manufactured gods upon his heart, And set, his stumbling-block of iniquity, straight before his face, And then come in unto the prophet, I Yahweh, have myself answered him thereby. By the multitude of his manufactured gods:
Portanto falla com elles, e dize-lhes: Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Qualquer homem da casa de Israel, que levantar os seus idolos sobre o seu coração, e o tropeço da sua maldade pozer diante da sua face, e vier ao propheta, eu, o Senhor, vindo elle, lhe responderei conforme a multidão dos seus idolos;
5 To the end the house of Israel may be taken by their own hearts, —in that they have estranged themselves from me, through their manufactured gods—all of them!
Para apanhar a casa de Israel no seu coração, porquanto todos se apartaram de mim para seguirem os seus idolos.
6 Therefore, say thou unto the house of Israel, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Turn ye—and make good your return—from your manufactured gods; And, from all your abominations, make good the turning away of your faces.
Portanto dize á casa de Israel: Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Convertei-vos, e deixae-vos converter dos vossos idolos; e desviae os vossos rostos de todas as vossas abominações.
7 For what man soever of the house of Israel Or of the sojourners who sojourn in Israel, Who shall estrange himself from following me And who shall bring up his manufactured gods, on his heart, And whose stumbling-block of iniquity, he shall set straight before his face, And then come in unto the prophet, to enquire by him of me, I Yahweh, will myself answer him, on my own account;
Porque qualquer homem da casa de Israel, e dos estrangeiros que peregrinam em Israel, que se alienar de mim, e levantar os seus idolos sobre o seu coração, e pozer o tropeço da sua maldade diante do seu rosto, e vier ao propheta, para me consultar por meio d'elle, eu, o Senhor, lhe responderei por mim mesmo.
8 And will set my face against that man And will make of him a sign and a proverb, And will cut him off out of the midst of my people: So shall ye know that, I, am Yahweh.
E porei o meu rosto contra o tal homem, e o assolarei para que sirva de signal e de dictado, e arrancal-o-hei do meio do meu povo: e sabereis que eu sou o Senhor.
9 Yea the prophet himself when he suffereth himself to be deceived, and speaketh a word, I Yahweh, have suffered that prophet to be deceived, Then will I stretch forth my hand against him, and destroy him out of the midst of my people. Israel:
E quando o propheta se deixar persuadir, e fallar alguma coisa, eu, o Senhor, persuadi esse propheta; e estenderei a minha mão contra elle, e destruil-o-hei do meio do meu povo Israel,
10 So shall they bear their punishment, As the punishment of him that enquireth, So shall the punishment of the prophet be:
E levarão a sua maldade: como fôr a maldade do que pergunta, assim será a maldade do propheta;
11 That the house of Israel may no more go astray from following me, And no more defile themselves by any of their transgressions, — But may become my people, and I, may become their God, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
Para que a casa de Israel não se desvie mais d'após mim, nem se contamine mais com todas as suas transgressões: então elles me serão por povo, e eu lhes serei por Deus, diz o Senhor Jehovah.
12 And the word of Yahweh came unto me saying:
Veiu ainda a mim a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:
13 Son of man, When a land, shall sin against me by committing treachery, and I shall stretch out my hand against it, And break for it the staff of bread, And send thereon famine, And cut off therefrom man and beast,
Filho do homem, quando uma terra peccar contra mim, gravemente rebellando, então estenderei a minha mão contra ella, e lhe quebrarei o sustento do pão, e enviarei contra ella fome, e arrancarei d'ella homens e animaes:
14 Then should these three men be in the midst thereof, Noah, Daniel, and Job, they by their righteousness should deliver their own lives— Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.
Ainda que estivessem no meio d'ella estes tres homens, Noé, Daniel e Job, elles pela sua justiça livrariam sómente a sua alma, diz o Senhor Jehovah.
15 If a mischievous wild beast, I suffer to pass through the land, and that beast bereave it, so that it become too desolate for any man to pass through, by reason of the wild beast,
Se eu fizer passar pela terra as más bestas, e ellas a despojarem de filhos, que ella seja assolada, e ninguem possa passar por ella por causa das bestas;
16 [Were] these three men in the midst thereof, As I live, Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Surely neither sons nor daughters, should they deliver, They alone should be delivered, But the land, should become a desolation.
E estes tres homens estivessem no meio d'ella, vivo eu, diz o Senhor Jehovah, que nem a filhos nem a filhas livrariam; elles só ficariam livres, e a terra seria assolada.
17 Or, a sword, I should bring upon that land, and should say. O sword! thou shalt go through the land, and so I should cut off therefrom, man and beast,
Ou, se eu trouxer a espada sobre a tal terra, e disser: Espada, passa pela terra: e eu arrancar d'ella homens e bestas:
18 Were these three men in the midst thereof, As I live! Saith My Lord Yahweh, They should deliver neither sons nor daughters, — For they alone, should be delivered.
Ainda que aquelles tres homens estivessem n'ella, vivo eu, diz o Senhor Jehovah, que nem filhos nem filhas livrariam, senão elles só ficariam livres.
19 Or pestilence, I, should send into that land, —and should pour out mine indignation thereon in blood, to cut off therefrom man and beast
Ou, se eu enviar a peste sobre a tal terra, e derramar o meu furor sobre ella com sangue, para arrancar d'ella homens e bestas:
20 Were Noah, Daniel and Job in the midst thereof, As I live, Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Surely neither son nor daughter, should they deliver, They, by their righteousness should deliver only their own lives.
Ainda que Noé, Daniel e Job estivessem no meio d'ella, vivo eu, diz o Senhor Jehovah, que nem um filho nem uma filha livrariam a sua alma, mas só elles livrarão as suas proprias almas pela sua justiça.
21 For thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, How much less [should they avail] when my four calamitous judgments, sword and famine and mischievous wild beast and pestilence I have sent against Jerusalem, —to cut off therefrom man and beast?
Porque assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Quanto mais, se eu enviar os meus quatro maus juizos, a espada, e a fome, e as más bestas, e a peste, contra Jerusalem, para arrancar d'ella homens e bestas?
22 Yet lo! there hath been left therein a remnant of fugitives to be brought forth —sons and daughters— There they are! coming forth unto you, And so ye shall see their way, and their doings, and be consoled over the calamity which I have brought in upon Jerusalem even all that I have brought in upon her.
Porém eis que alguns dos que escaparem ficarão de resto n'ella, que serão tirados para fóra, assim filhos como filhas; eis que elles sairão a vós, e vereis o seu caminho e os seus feitos; e ficareis consolados do mal que eu trouxe sobre Jerusalem, e de tudo o que trouxe sobre ella.
23 Yea they shall console you, when ye see their way and their doings, — So shall ye know that not without cause, have I done, anything that I have done with her, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
E vos consolarão, quando virdes o seu caminho e os seus feitos; e sabereis que não fiz sem razão tudo quanto fiz n'ella, diz o Senhor Jehovah.
