2 Timothy 4
1 Christ Jesus [is going to come back and] judge those who are living [when he comes] and those who will have died. He will judge them [concerning what rewards they deserve, and] he will rule everyone. So, [knowing that] he and God are watching [everything that we do], I solemnly/earnestly command you
Conjuro-te pois diante de Deus, e do Senhor Jesus Christo, que ha de julgar os vivos e os mortos, na sua vinda e no seu reino,
2 that you proclaim the [true] message to people. Always be ready/prepared [to proclaim it], whether people want to hear it or not. [Some people are saying things that are not correct]; (refute their teaching/show why their teaching is wrong). Rebuke them when they are doing wrong. Tell them what they ought to do. Be very patient while you teach them.
Que pregues a palavra, instes a tempo e fóra de tempo, redarguas, reprehendas, exhortes, com toda a longanimidade e doutrina.
3 [Do these things] because there will be a time when people will not listen to good teaching. Instead, they will bring in many teachers for themselves who will tell them just what they want to hear [IDM]. [The reason that they will bring in such teachers is] that they want to do the evil things that they desire.
Porque virá tempo em que não soffrerão a sã doutrina; mas, tendo comichão nos ouvidos, amontoarão para si doutores conforme as suas proprias concupiscencias;
4 That is, they will not listen to [MTY] what is true, but will listen instead to [strange] stories from our ancestors.
E desviarão os ouvidos da verdade, e se tornarão ás fabulas.
5 [Furthermore, I command that] you always control what you think and do. [Be willing] to endure hardships/suffering. Your work should be telling people the message [about Christ Jesus]. As you serve [the Lord], do everything that [God has told] you to do.
Porém tu vigia em todas as coisas, soffre as afflicções, faze a obra d'um evangelista, cumpre o teu ministerio.
6 [Timothy, I say these things to] you because as for me, [it is as though] [MET] [they are now about to kill me. It is as though my blood will] be poured out {they will kill me} [as a sacrifice on the altar]; that is, [I know] that it is the time for me to die [EUP].
Porque a mim já agora me offereço por aspersão de sacrificio, e o tempo da minha partida está proximo.
7 [And as to telling people the] good [message and defending it], I have (exerted myself thoroughly/done it with all my energy) [MET], [like a boxer does. As to doing] the work that God gave me to do, I have completed it, [like a runner who finishes] [MET] the race. [As to] what we believe, I (have been loyal to it/continue to believe it).
Combati o bom combate, acabei a carreira, guardei a fé.
8 [So, like people award] a prize [MET] [to the winner of a race], the Lord, who judges rightly, will give me a reward [because I have lived] righteously. He will give me that reward when [MTY] [he judges people]. And not only [will he reward] me, but he will also reward all those who very much want him to come back.
Pelo demais, a corôa da justiça está-me guardada, a qual o Senhor, justo juiz, me dará n'aquelle dia; e não sómente a mim, mas tambem a todos os que amarem a sua vinda
9 (Do your best/Try hard) to come to me soon.
Procura vir ter comigo depressa.
10 [I say that] because Demas has left me. He wanted very much [the good things that he might enjoy] [MTY] in this world [right now], and so he went to Thessalonica [city]. Crescens [went to serve the Lord] in Galatia [province], and Titus went to Dalmatia [district]. (aiōn g165)
Porque Démas me desamparou, amando o presente seculo, e foi para Thessalonica, Crescente para Galacia, Tito para Dalmacia. (aiōn g165)
11 Luke is the only one who is still with me [of those who were helping me. And when you come], bring Mark with you, because he is useful to help me in my work.
Só Lucas está comigo. Toma Marcos, e tral-o comtigo, porque me é muito util para o ministerio.
12 Tychicus [cannot help me because] I sent him to Ephesus [city].
Tambem enviei Tychico a Epheso.
13 And when you come, bring the coat that I left with Carpus in Troas [city]. Also, bring the books, but (most of all/especially) [I want] (the parchments/the animal skins) [on which important things are written].
Quando vieres traze a capa que deixei em Troade, em casa de Carpo, e os livros, principalmente os pergaminhos.
14 Alexander, the man who makes things from metal, did many evil/harmful things to me. The Lord will punish him for what he did.
Alexandre, o latoeiro, occasionou-me muitos males; o Senhor lhe pague segundo as suas obras.
15 So you, too, must beware of him. [He will try to destroy your work if he can], because he very much opposes the message that we [proclaim].
Tu guarda-te tambem d'elle; porque resistiu muito ás nossas palavras.
16 When I first defended myself [in court here], no one came along [to help defend] me. Instead, they all left me. [I pray] that it will not be counted against {[God] will forgive} them [LIT] [for leaving me].
Ninguem me assistiu na minha primeira defeza, antes todos me desampararam. Oxalá isto lhes não seja imputado.
17 Nevertheless, the Lord was with me and strengthened me. He enabled me to fully preach the message, and all the non-Jewish people [in the court] (OR, people from many nations) heard it. And I was rescued [by the Lord] {[the Lord] rescued me} [from great danger, as if I were taken] [MET] out of a lion’s (OR, wild animal’s) mouth.
Mas o Senhor assistiu-me e fortaleceu-me, para que por mim fosse cumprida a prégação, e todos os gentios a ouvissem; e fiquei livre da bocca do leão.
18 [Therefore, I am sure that] the Lord will rescue me from everything that is truly evil and will bring me safely to heaven, where he rules. Praise him forever! (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn g165)
E o Senhor me livrará de toda a má obra, e guardar-me-ha para o seu reino celestial; a quem seja gloria para todo o sempre. Amen. (aiōn g165)
19 Greet [for me] Priscilla and [her husband] Aquila and the family of Onesiphorus.
Sauda a Prisca e Aquila, e á casa de Onesiphoro.
20 Erastus stayed in Corinth [city]. Trophimus, I left in Miletus [city] because he was sick.
Erasto ficou em Corintho, e deixei Trophimo doente em Mileto.
21 (Do your best/Try hard) to come to me before (the stormy season/winter). Eubulus, Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and many other fellow believers [in this city] (send their greetings to/say that they are thinking affectionately about) you.
Procura vir antes do inverno. Eubulo, e Pudens, e Lino, e Claudia, e todos os irmãos te saudam.
22 [I pray that] the Lord will [help you in] your spirit, [Timothy, and] that [he] will act kindly toward all of you [believers who are there].
O Senhor Jesus Christo seja com o teu espirito. A graça seja comvosco. Amen.
