< Jeremiah 25 >

1 After Jehoiakim had been ruling Judah for almost four years, Yahweh gave me this message for all the people of Judah. It was during the year that King Nebuchadnezzar started to rule in Babylon.
A palavra que veiu a Jeremias ácerca de todo o povo de Judah no anno quarto de Joaquim, filho de Josias, rei de Judah (que é o primeiro anno de Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia),
2 I spoke this message to all the people in Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah:
A qual fallou o propheta Jeremias a todo o povo de Judah, e a todos os habitantes de Jerusalem, dizendo:
3 “Yahweh has been giving me messages for 23 years. He started giving me messages when Josiah, the son of Amon, had been ruling Judah for almost 13 years. And I have faithfully told you those messages, but you have not paid any attention to them.
Desde o anno treze de Josias, filho de Ammon, rei de Judah, até este dia (que é o anno vinte e tres), veiu a mim a palavra do Senhor, e vol-a fallei a vós, madrugando e fallando; porém não escutastes.
4 Many times Yahweh has sent to you the prophets who served him, but you have not listened to them or paid any attention to what they said.
Tambem vos enviou o Senhor todos os seus servos, os prophetas, madrugando e enviando-os (porém não escutastes, nem inclinastes os vossos ouvidos para ouvir),
5 Each time their message was this: ‘Turn from all your evil behavior [MET], from all the evil things that you have continually been doing. If you do that, you will be able to stay in this land that Yahweh gave to you and to your ancestors, [to belong to you] forever.
Dizendo: Convertei-vos agora cada um do seu mau caminho, e da maldade das suas acções, e habitae na terra que vos deu o Senhor, e a vossos paes, de seculo em seculo;
6 Do not cause Yahweh to become angry by serving and worshiping idols that you have made with your hands. If you do not cause him to be angry, he will not punish/harm you.’
E não andeis após deuses alheios para os servirdes, e para vos inclinardes diante d'elles, nem me provoqueis á ira com a obra de vossas mãos, para que vos não faça mal.
7 And Yahweh says, ‘But you would not pay attention to the messages that I [gave to those prophets]. You caused me to become extremely angry by [your worshiping idols] that you had made with your own hands. That resulted in my punishing you.
Porém não me déstes ouvidos, diz o Senhor, para me provocardes á ira com a obra de vossas mãos, para vosso mal.
8 So [now, I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say that because you have not paid attention to what I said,
Portanto assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos: Porquanto não escutastes as minhas palavras,
9 I will gather all [the armies of] the nations that will come from the northeast. I have appointed King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon to lead them. I have appointed him to do my work for me. I will bring those [armies] to attack this land and nearby countries. I will completely destroy them, and cause them to be places that people are horrified about, and that people will (ridicule/act contemptuously toward), places that will be ruined forever.
Eis que eu enviarei, e tomarei a todas as gerações do norte, diz o Senhor, como tambem a Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia, meu servo, e os trarei sobre esta terra, e sobre os seus moradores, e sobre todas estas nações em redor, e os destruirei totalmente, e pôl-os-hei em espanto, e em assobio, e em perpetuos desertos.
10 I will cause happy singing and laughing to cease in your land. There will no longer be brides and bridegrooms talking [joyfully]. There will not be the sound of people grinding [grain] with millstones. There will be no lamps lit [in your houses].
E farei perecer d'entre elles a voz de folguedo, e a voz de alegria, a voz do esposo, e a voz da esposa, como tambem o som das mós, e a luz do candieiro.
11 All of this land will become a desert where no one will live. And [the people of] Israel and of the nearby countries will [will be exiled to Babylonia and] (work for/be slaves of) the kings of Babylon for seventy years.
E toda esta terra virá a ser um deserto e um espanto: e estas nações servirão ao rei de Babylonia setenta annos.
12 Then, after [they have been in Babylonia for] seventy years, I will punish the King of Babylonia and his people for the sins that they have committed. I will cause Babylonia to become a wasteland/desert forever.
Será, porém, que, quando se cumprirem os setenta annos, então visitarei sobre o rei de Babylonia, e sobre esta nação, diz o Senhor, a sua iniquidade, e sobre a terra dos chaldeos; farei d'elles uns desertos perpetuos.
13 I will cause them to experience all the terrible things that Jeremiah has written about—all the punishments that he predicted will happen to all those nations.
E trarei sobre esta terra todas as minhas palavras, que fallei contra ella, a saber, tudo quanto está escripto n'este livro, que prophetizou Jeremias contra todas estas nações.
14 The leaders of many nations will cause the people of Babylonia to become their slaves, like the people of Babylonia caused my people to become slaves. I will punish them like they deserve for [having caused my people to suffer].’”
Porque tambem d'elles se servirão muitas nações e grandes reis: assim lhes pagarei segundo os seus feitos, e segundo as obras das suas mãos.
15 Then Yahweh, the God [we] Israelis [worship], gave me [a vision. In the vision he was holding a cup of wine]. He said, “Take from me this cup that is full of [wine that represents] punishment [MTY]. I will cause all [the leaders of] the nations to which I will send you to drink [some of] the wine in this cup.
Porque assim me disse o Senhor, o Deus d'Israel: Toma da minha mão este copo do vinho do furor, e darás a beber d'elle a todas as nações, ás quaes eu te enviarei.
16 When they drink [the wine], they will stagger and act like crazy people, because [they will realize that] I will (massacre many of their people/cause many of their people to be killed) [MTY] with swords.”
Para que bebam e tremam, e enlouqueçam, por causa da espada, que eu enviarei entre elles.
17 So, [in the vision, ] I took that cup [full of wine] from Yahweh, and I took it to all the nations to which he sent me, and caused [the leaders of those] nations to drink [some of that wine].
E tomei o copo da mão do Senhor, e dei a beber a todas as nações, ás quaes o Senhor me tinha enviado:
18 [I went to] Jerusalem and the [other] towns in Judah, and the king and [the other] officials drank [some of the wine] from that cup. And, starting from that day, they all [eventually] were removed from having authority, and became [people whom others] (ridiculed/acted contemptuously towards), who were despised, and cursed.
A Jerusalem, e ás cidades de Judah, e aos seus reis, e aos seus principes, para fazer d'elles um deserto, um espanto, um assobio, e uma maldição, como hoje se vê
19 [In the vision I went to] Egypt [and gave some of the wine] to the king and his officials and many of his people,
Como tambem a Pharaó, rei do Egypto, e a seus servos, e a seus principes, e a todo o seu povo;
20 and to foreigners who were living there. [In the vision I also went to] Uz land and to Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and Ashdod [cities and gave some of the wine] to the kings [of those places].
E a toda a mistura de gente, e a todos os reis da terra de Uz, e a todos os reis da terra dos philisteos, e a Asquelon, e a Gaza, e a Ecron, e ao resto de Asdod,
21 [Then in the vision I went to the] Edom, Moab, and Ammon [people-groups],
E a Edom, e a Moab, e aos filhos d'Ammon;
22 and to Tyre and Sidon [cities] and to areas across the [Mediterranean] Sea, and [gave some of the wine] to the kings [of those places].
E a todos os reis de Tyro, e a todos os reis de Sidon; e aos reis das ilhas que estão d'alem do mar;
23 [In the vision I then went] to Dedan, Tema, and Buz [cities in Arabia] and to other distant places (OR, places where people cut their hair short), [and gave some of the wine to leaders in those areas].
A Dedan, e a Tema, e a Buz e a todos os que habitam nos ultimos cantos da terra;
24 [In the vision I also went to other places in] Arabia and to the [kings of tribes] in the desert
E a todos os reis da Arabia, e todos os reis da mistura de gentea que habita no deserto;
25 and to the kings of the Zimri, Elam, and Media [people-groups],
E a todos os reis de Zimri, e a todos os reis d'Elam, e a todos os reis da Media:
26 and to kings in countries to the north that are near [to Israel] and to countries that are far [from Israel], one after the other— [I went to] all the kingdoms in the world [HYP]. And finally, [in my vision I went to] Babylon, and gave [some of] the wine to the king of Babylon—the wine [that symbolized that Yahweh would punish the people of Babylon because he was angry with them] [MTY].
E a todos os reis do norte, os de perto, e os de longe, um com outro, e a todos os reinos da terra, que estão sobre a face da terra, e o rei de Sheshach beberá depois d'elles.
27 Then [in the vision Yahweh said to me], “Tell them that this is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom we Israelis [worship], says: ‘Drink [from this cup some of the wine that represents the punishment that I will give you]. Drink [a lot of it] and become drunk and vomit. You will fall down and not get up again, because I will cause you to be killed in wars [MTY] that I will send to you.
Pois lhes dirás: Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, o Deus d'Israel: Bebei, e embebedae-vos, e vomitae, e cahi, e não torneis a levantar-vos, por causa da espada que eu enviarei entre vós.
28 If any of those to whom you give this wine [MTY] refuse to drink it, tell them that the Commander of the armies of angels says that they must drink it.
E será que, se não quizerem tomar o copo da tua mão para beber, então lhes dirás: Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos: Certamente bebereis.
29 I am starting to cause the people of my own city to experience disaster. [Do you think that] you should not be punished [RHQ]? No, you will surely be punished [LIT] because I am causing there to be wars in all the nations on the earth. [That will surely happen because] I, the Commander of the armies of angels, have said it.’
Porque, eis que na cidade que se chama pelo meu nome começo a castigar; e serieis vós totalmente innocentes? não sereis innocentes; porque eu chamo a espada sobre todos os moradores da terra, diz o Senhor dos Exercitos.
30 Now tell them all those things that I have said, and also say this to them: ‘Yahweh will [shout to them] from his holy dwelling [in heaven] [MTY] and [it will sound like] the roar of a lion. He will shout like [SIM] people shout when they are treading on grapes [to make juice for wine]; he will shout to everyone on the earth.
Tu pois lhes prophetizarás todas estas palavras, e lhes dirás: O Senhor desde o alto bramará, e dará a sua voz desde a morada da sua sanctidade: terrivelmente bramará contra a sua habitação, e com grito de alegria, como dos que pizam as uvas, contra todos os moradores da terra.
31 Even people in very remote places around the earth will hear him shouting, because he will say why he will judge and punish all the nations. He will cause the wicked people to be slaughtered with swords. [That will surely happen because] Yahweh has said it.’
Chegará o estrondo até á extremidade da terra, porque o Senhor tem contenda com as nações, entrará em juizo com toda a carne: os impios entregará á espada, diz o Senhor.
32 Then tell them that this is what the Commander of the armies of angels says: ‘Listen to this! There will be disasters in one nation after another. [I am preparing to punish them like] [MET] a great storm that starts in the most distant places on the earth.
Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos: Eis que o mal sae de nação a nação, e grande tormenta se levantará das ilhargas da terra.
33 When that happens, [the corpses of] those whom I have [caused to be] slaughtered will fill the earth from the east to the west. And no one will mourn for them, and no one will gather their corpses to bury them. They will be [scattered] on the ground like manure.
E serão os mortos do Senhor, n'aquelle dia, desde uma extremidade da terra até á outra extremidade da terra: não serão pranteados, nem recolhidos, nem sepultados; mas estarão por esterco sobre a face da terra
34 You [evil] leaders, weep and moan! You who should take care of my people, [fall down and] roll in the dust/dirt. It is time for you to be slaughtered; you will fall down and be shattered like a fragile vase [shatters when it falls to the ground].
Uivae, pastores, e clamae, e rebolae-vos na cinza, honrados do rebanho, porque já se cumpriram os vossos dias para vos matar, e eu vos quebrantarei, e vós então caireis como um vaso precioso.
35 You will not find any place to hide, there will be no place to which you can escape.
E não haverá fugida para os pastores, nem salvamento para os honrados do rebanho.
36 [People will] listen to your leaders crying when [I], Yahweh, am ruining your nation.
Voz de grito dos pastores, e uivo dos honrados do rebanho; porque o Senhor destruiu o pasto d'elles.
37 Your peaceful meadows will become a wasteland/desert because I will be extremely angry.
Porque as suas malhadas pacificas serão desarraigadas, por causa do furor da ira do Senhor.
38 I will leave [my dwelling like] [SIM] a lion leaves its den [to attack other animals], and I will cause your land to become desolate when I, because I am very angry [with you], cause [your enemies to slaughter you with their] swords.’”
Desamparou a sua cabana, como o filho de leão; porque a sua terra foi posta em assolação, por causa do furor do oppressor, e por causa do furor da sua ira.
