Ezekiel 37
1 One day Yahweh gave me another vision. In the vision I felt the power [MTY] of God on me, and by his Spirit he took me to the middle of a valley. It was full of bones [of people who had been killed].
Veiu sobre mim a mão do Senhor, e o Senhor, pelo espirito, me levou e me poz no meio de um valle que estava cheio de ossos.
2 He led me to walk back and forth among those bones. I saw that there were very many bones there, bones that were very dry.
E me fez passar por toda a roda d'elles; e eis que eram mui numerosos sobre a face do valle, e eis que estavam sequissimos.
3 He asked me, “You human, [do you think that] these bones can become living [people again]?” I replied, “Yahweh my Lord, only you know [if that can happen].”
E me disse: Filho do homem, porventura viverão estes ossos? E eu disse: Senhor Jehovah, tu o sabes.
4 Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones. Say to them, ‘You dry bones, listen to what Yahweh says.
Então me disse: Prophetiza sobre estes ossos, e dize-lhes: Ossos seccos, ouvi a palavra do Senhor.
5 This is what Yahweh the Lord says to you bones: I will put my breath into each of you, and you will become alive again.
Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah a estes ossos: Eis que farei entrar em vós o espirito, e vivereis.
6 I will fasten tendons to your bones, and cause your bones to be covered with flesh. I will cover the flesh with skin. Then I will breathe into you, and you will become alive. When that happens, you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
E porei nervos sobre vós, e farei crescer carne sobre vós, e sobre vós estenderei pelle, e porei em vós o espirito, e vivereis, e sabereis que eu sou o Senhor.
7 So I spoke to the bones what Yahweh commanded me to speak. As I was speaking, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bones joining to each other.
Então prophetizei como se me deu ordem; e houve um arroido, prophetizando eu; e eis que se fez um reboliço, e os ossos se achegaram, cada osso ao seu osso.
8 While I was looking, I saw tendons fastening to them and flesh covering them, and then skin covered the flesh, but they did not breathe.
E olhei, e eis que vinham nervos sobre elles, e cresceu a carne, e estendeu-se a pelle sobre elles por cima; porém não havia n'elles espirito.
9 Then he said to me, “You human, prophesy to the wind. Say to the wind, ‘Wind [APO], Yahweh says to you, blow from all four directions. Breathe into these people who have been killed, in order that they can become alive again!’”
E elle me disse: Prophetiza ao espirito, prophetiza, ó filho do homem, e dize ao espirito: Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Vem dos quatro ventos, ó espirito, e assopra sobre estes mortos, e viverão.
10 So I said what he commanded me to say, and then breath entered them. They became alive and stood up, like a huge army.
E prophetizei como elle me deu ordem: então o espirito entrou n'elles, e viveram, e se pozeram em seus pés, um exercito grande em extremo.
11 Then he said to me, “You human, these bones represent all the Israeli people [MTY]. The people say, ‘[It is as though] our bones are dried up; there are no more good things that we can (hope for/confidently expect to happen to us); our nation is destroyed/finished.’
Então me disse: Filho do homem, estes ossos são toda a casa de Israel: eis que dizem: Os nossos ossos se seccaram, e pereceu a nossa esperança: nós estamos cortados.
12 So prophesy and say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: My people, [it will be as though] I will open your graves and cause your corpses to become alive again. I will bring you back to Israel.
Portanto prophetiza, e dize-lhes: Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Eis que eu abrirei as vossas sepulturas, e vos farei subir das vossas sepulturas, ó povo meu, e vos trarei á terra de Israel.
13 Then, what that happens, you my people will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
E sabereis que eu sou o Senhor, quando eu abrir as vossas sepulturas, e vos fizer subir das vossas sepulturas, ó povo meu.
14 I will put my Spirit in you, and [it will be as though] you will become alive again, and I will enable you to live in your own land again. Then you will know that it is I, Yahweh, who said [that it would happen] and who has caused it to happen. That is what I, Yahweh, declare.’”
E porei em vós o meu espirito, e vivereis, e vos metterei na vossa terra, e sabereis que eu, o Senhor, fallei isto, e o fiz, diz o Senhor.
15 Yahweh gave me [another] message. He said,
E veiu a mim a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:
16 “You human, take a piece of wood and write on it, ‘This represents Judah and all the tribes of Judah.’ Then take another piece of wood and write on it, ‘This represents Israel and all the tribes of Israel.’
Tu, pois, ó filho do homem, toma um pau, e escreve n'elle: A Judah e aos filhos de Israel, seus companheiros. E toma outro pau, e escreve n'elle: A José, o pau de Ephraim, e de toda a casa de Israel, seus companheiros.
17 Then join them together to become [as though they were] one piece of wood in your hand.
E ajunta um ao outro, para que sejam um pau; e serão unidos na tua mão.
18 When your fellow Israelis ask you, ‘What does (this action/what you just did) mean?’,
E quando te fallarem os filhos do teu povo, dizendo: Porventura não nos declaras que significam estas coisas?
19 tell them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: One of the pieces of wood in my hand represents Israel and all the tribes of Israel. I am joining it to the piece of wood that represents Judah, to form one piece of wood in his hand.’
Então lhes dirás: Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Eis que eu tomarei o pau de José, que esteve na mão de Ephraim, e das tribus de Israel, seus companheiros, e os ajuntarei com elle ao pau de Judah, e farei d'elles um só pau, e elles se farão um só na minha mão.
20 Then, [you human], hold up the pieces of wood that you have written on, in order that the people can see them.
E os paus, sobre que houveres escripto, estarão na tua mão, perante os olhos d'elles.
21 Say to the people, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: I will take you Israeli people out of the countries to which you have been forced to go. I will gather you from all those nations and bring you back to your own land.
Dize-lhes pois: Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Eis que eu tomarei os filhos de Israel de entre as nações, para onde elles foram, e os congregarei de todas as partes, e os levarei á sua terra.
22 And I will cause you to again be one nation in that land, on the mountains in Israel. And there will be one king to rule over all of you. Never again will you be two nations or divided into two kingdoms.
E d'elles farei uma nação na terra, nos montes d'Israel, e todos elles terão por seu rei um só rei; e nunca mais serão duas nações; nunca mais para o futuro se dividirão em dois reinos.
23 No longer will you (defile yourselves/make yourselves unacceptable to me) by [worshiping] idols and disgusting statues [of your gods], because I will enable you to quit your sinful behavior and to stop rejecting me. You will be my people, and I will be your God.
E nunca mais se contaminarão com os seus idolos, nem com as suas abominações, nem com as suas prevaricações, e os livrarei de todas as suas habitações, em que peccaram, e os purificarei: assim me serão por povo, e eu lhes serei por Deus.
24 [Someone who will be like] [MET] [King] David who served [me well] will be the king [of your descendants], and [it will be as though] [MET] he will be their shepherd. They will carefully obey all my laws [DOU].
E meu Servo David será rei sobre elles, e todos elles terão um só pastor; e andarão nos meus juizos, e guardarão os meus estatutos, e os farão.
25 They will live in the land that I gave to Jacob, who also served [me well]; they will live in the land where your ancestors lived. They and their children and their grandchildren will live there forever, and [the one who will be like] [MET] [King] David will be their king forever.
E habitarão na terra que dei a meu servo Jacob, em que habitaram vossos paes; e habitarão n'ella, elles e seus filhos, e os filhos de seus filhos, para sempre, e David, meu servo, será seu principe eternamente.
26 I will make a peace agreement with them; it will be an agreement that will endure forever. I will again give them that land and cause their population to increase. And I will put my temple among them forever.
E farei com elles um concerto de paz; será com elles um concerto perpetuo; e os porei, e os multiplicarei, e porei o meu sanctuario no meio d'elles para sempre.
27 The place where I will live will be among them; I will be their God and they will be my people.
E o meu tabernaculo estará com elles, e lhes serei por Deus e elles me serão por povo.
28 Then, when my temple is forever there among them, the people of other nations will know that I, Yahweh, have caused the Israeli people to be set apart [to belong to me].’”
E as nações saberão que eu sou o Senhor que sanctifico a Israel, quando estiver o meu sanctuario no meio d'elles para sempre.
