Deuteronomy 33
1 Before God’s prophet Moses died, he [asked God to] bless the Israeli people.
Esta, porém, é a benção com que Moisés, homem de Deus, abençoou os filhos de Israel antes da sua morte
2 This is what he said: “Yahweh came [and spoke] to us at Sinai [Mountain]; he [came like] [MET] the sun rises in the Edom [region] and like his light shone on us when we were [in the desert] near Paran Mountain [after we left Sinai Mountain]. He came with 10,000 angels, and there was a flaming fire at his right side.
Disse pois: O Senhor veio de Sinai, e lhes subiu de Seir; resplandeceu desde o monte Paran, e veio com dez milhares de santos: à sua direita havia para eles o fogo da lei.
3 Yahweh truly loves his people, and protects [MTY] all those who belong to him. So they prostrate themselves in front of him, and they listen to his instructions.
Na verdade ama os povos; todos os seus santos estão na tua mão; postos serão no meio, entre os teus pés, cada um receberá das tuas palavras.
4 I gave them laws to obey, laws that would be the most precious thing that [the descendants of] Jacob owned.
Moisés nos deu a lei por herança da congregação de Jacob.
5 So Yahweh became the king of his Israeli people when all the tribes and their leaders were gathered together.
E foi rei em Jeshurun, quando se congregaram em um os Cabeças do povo com as tribos de Israel.
6 [I say this about the tribe of] Reuben: I desire/hope that their tribe will never disappear, but they will never become numerous.
Viva Ruben, e não morra, e que os seus homens sejam numerosos.
7 “say this about [the tribe of] Judah: Yahweh, listen to them when they call out [for help]; and unite them with the other tribes again. Fight for them, and help them to fight against their enemies.
E isto é o que disse de Judá; e disse: Ouve, ó Senhor, a voz de Judá, e introduze-o no seu povo: as suas mãos lhe bastem, e tu lhe sejas em ajuda contra os seus inimigos.
8 I say this about [the tribe of] Levi: Yahweh, give to those who are dedicated to you the sacred stones [that they will use to find out what you want to be done]; You tested them at a spring in the desert, a spring that they named Massah and also named Meribah [to find out if they would (remain loyal to/continue to obey) you].
E de Levi disse: Teu tumim e teu Urim são para o teu amado, que tu provaste em Massah, com quem contendeste às águas de Meribah.
9 The tribe of Levi did what you told them to do and obeyed the agreement that you [made with the Israeli people]; those laws were more important to them [HYP] than their siblings and parents and children.
Aquele que disse a seu pai e a sua mãe: Nunca o vi; e não conheceu a seus irmãos, e não estimou a seus filhos: pois guardaram a tua palavra e observaram o teu concerto.
10 The tribe of Levi will teach the Israeli people [DOU] your rules and regulations, and they are the ones who will burn incense and who will completely burn on the altar the offerings [that the people bring].
Ensinaram os teus juízos a Jacob, e a tua lei a Israel; meteram incenso no teu nariz, e o holocausto sobre o teu altar.
11 Yahweh, bless their work and (accept/be pleased with) all that they do. Crush/Destroy all their enemies; do not enable their enemies to be able to fight against them again.
Abençoa o seu poder, ó Senhor, e a obra das suas mãos te aguarde: fere os lombos dos que se levantam contra ele e o aborrecem, que nunca mais se levantem.
12 I say this about [the tribe of] Benjamin: They are the tribe that Yahweh loves; he keeps them safe. He protects them continually, and he lives among their hills [MET].
E de Benjamin disse: O amado do Senhor habitará seguro com ele: todo o dia o cobrirá, e morará entre os seus ombros.
13 “say this about [the tribes of] Joseph: I desire/hope that Yahweh will bless their land by giving them rain/dew from the sky and water from deep [in the ground],
E de José disse: bendita do Senhor seja a sua terra, com o mais excelente dos céus, como orvalho, e com o abismo que jaz abaixo.
14 by giving them good fruit [ripened] by the sun and good crops at harvest time.
E com as mais excelentes novidades do sol, e com as mais excelentes produções da lua,
15 I desire/hope that very nice fruit will grow on trees in their ancient mountains/hills [DOU],
E com o mais excelente dos montes antigos, e com o mais excelente dos outeiros eternos,
16 and that their land will be have many good crops, blessed by [Yahweh], the one who appeared to me in a burning bush. I desire/hope that Yahweh will bless the tribes of Joseph in all those ways, because he was the leaders of his [older] brothers [when they were in Egypt].
E com o mais excelente da terra, e com a sua plenidão, e com a benevolência daquele que habitava na sarça, a benção venha sobre a cabeça de José, e sobre o alto da cabeça do que foi separado de seus irmãos
17 The descendants of Joseph will be as strong as [SIM] a bull; [with their weapons they will wound their enemies, like] [MET] a wild ox [gores other animals] with its horns. They will force other people-groups, all of them, to be exiled to the most distant places on the earth. That is what [the descendants of the two sons of Joseph] will do, the ten thousands [of the tribe] of Ephraim and the thousands [of the tribe] of Manasseh.
Ele tem a glória do primogênito do seu boi, e as suas pontas são pontas de unicórnio: com eles escorneará os povos juntamente até às extremidades da terra: estes pois são os dez milhares de Ephraim, e estes são os milhares de Manasseh.
18 “say this about [the tribes of] Zebulun [and Issachar]: I desire/hope that the people of Zebulun will prosper in their travels [across the seas], and that the people of Issachar will prosper while they stay at home [and take care of their cattle and crops].
E de Zebulon disse: Zebulon, alegra-te nas tuas saídas; e tu, Issacar, nas tuas tendas.
19 They will invite people [from the other Israeli tribes] to the mountain [where they worship Yahweh], and they will offer the correct/proper sacrifices to him. They will become rich from [the work that they do on] the seas and from [the things that they make from] (OR, [find in]) the sand [on the beaches].
Eles chamarão os povos ao monte: ali oferecerão ofertas de justiça, porque chuparão a abundância dos mares e os tesouros escondidos da areia.
20 “say this about [the tribe of] Gad: Praise [Yahweh], the one who made their [territory] large. The people of their tribe [will attack their enemies fiercely] [SIM] like a lion that crouches, waiting to tear off the arm or the scalp [of some animal].
E de Gad disse: bendito aquele que faz dilatar a Gad, habita como a leoa, e despedaça o braço e alto da cabeça.
21 They chose the best part of the land for themselves; [a large share of the land], a share that should be given to a leader was allotted to them. When the leaders of the tribes of Israel [gathered together], they decided that the tribe of Gad should have a large share of the land. The tribe of Gad obeyed the commands of Yahweh and the things that he decided that they should do.
E se proveu do primeiro, porquanto ali estava escondida a porção do legislador: pelo que veio com os chefes do povo, executou a justiça do Senhor e os seus juízos para com Israel.
22 “say this about [the tribe] of Dan: The people of the tribe of Dan are like [SIM] a young lion; they leap from [their caves in the] Bashan [region to attack their enemies].
E de Dan disse: Dan é leãozinho; saltará de Basan.
23 “say this about [the tribe of] Naphtali: [The people of the tribe of] Naphtali have been blessed by Yahweh, who has been very kind to them; their land extends far south from Lake [Galilee].
E de Naphtali disse: Farta-te, ó Naphtali, da benevolência, e enchete da benção do Senhor; possui o ocidente e o meio dia.
24 “say this about [the tribe of] Asher: May Yahweh bless the descendants of Asher more than he will bless the other tribes. May he favor Asher’s descendants most of all. I desire/hope that their land will [be filled with olive trees that will] produce a lot of [IDM] [olives to make olive] oil.
E de Aser disse: bendito seja Aser com seus filhos, agrade a seus irmãos, e banhe em azeite o seu pé.
25 Their [towns will be protected by high walls with gates that have] bronze and iron bars; I desire/hope that they will be strong and secure/protected all the time that they are alive.
O ferro e o metal será o teu calçado; e a tua força será como os teus dias.
26 “You people of Israel, there is no god like your God, who rides majestically across the sky to help you.
Não há outro, ó Jeshurun, semelhante a Deus! que cavalga sobre os céus para a tua ajuda, e com a sua alteza sobre as mais altas nuvens.
27 God, who lives forever, is the one who (gives you refuge/protects you); [it is as though] he puts his everlasting arms under you [to support you]. He will expel your enemies while you advance; he has told you to destroy all of them.
O Deus eterno te seja por habitação, e por baixo sejam os braços eternos: e ele lance o inimigo de diante de ti, e diga: Destroe-o.
28 So, you Israeli people will live safely; you descendants of Jacob will not be disturbed by others; in the land where [you will live], there will be plenty of grain and wine, and there will be plenty of rain.
Israel pois habitará só seguro, na terra da fonte de Jacob, na terra de grão e de mosto: e os seus céus gotejarão orvalho.
29 You people of Israel, Yahweh (has blessed/is pleased with) you. There is certainly [RHQ] no nation like your nation, whom Yahweh has rescued [from being slaves in Egypt]. [He will be like] [MET] a shield to protect you and like [MET] a sword to enable you to defeat [your enemies]. Your enemies will come to you begging for you [to act mercifully toward them], but you will trample on their backs/necks.”
Bem-aventurado tu, ó Israel! quem é como tu? um povo salvo pelo Senhor, o escudo do teu socorro, e a espada da tua alteza: pelo que os teus inimigos te serão sujeitos, e tu pisarás sobre as suas alturas.
