Revelation 11
1 [An angel gave] to me a reed similar to a measuring stick. He said [to me], “[Christ says this: ‘Go] to the temple [where people worship] God, measure it and the altar [in it], and count the people who worship there.
E foi-me dada uma cana semelhante a uma vara: e chegou o anjo, e disse: Levanta-te, e mede o templo de Deus, e o altar, e os que nele adoram.
2 But do not measure the courtyard outside [of the temple] [DOU], because [it] has been given {[God] has given it} to [the] non-Jewish [people. As a result], they will trample [Jerusalem city] for 42 months.
Porém deixa de fora o átrio que está fora do templo, e não o meças; porque foi dado às nações, e pisarão a santa cidade por quarenta e dois meses.
3 I will appoint my two (witnesses/men who will tell others about me). They will proclaim what I reveal to them for 1,260 days. They will wear [rough] clothes made from goat’s hair [to show that they are sad about people’s sin].’”
E darei poder às minhas duas testemunhas, e profetizarão por mil duzentos e sessenta dias, vestidas de saco.
4 Those [witnesses are the ones] that are represented by the two olive trees and the two lampstands that are in the presence of the Lord [who rules] the earth [SYM].
Estas são as duas oliveiras e os dois castiçais que estão diante do Deus da terra.
5 If enemies try to harm those [witnesses], fire will come from the mouths of the witnesses and destroy them. If people want to harm them, [the two witnesses] will certainly kill them similarly.
E, se alguém os quizer empecer, fogo sairá da sua boca, e devorará os seus inimigos: e, se alguém quizer empece-los, importa que assim seja morto.
6 Those [witnesses] will have authority to keep rain from falling during the time that they are proclaiming what God reveals to them. They also will have authority to cause water [everywhere] to become [red like] [MET] blood, and [authority] to cause all kinds of plagues to occur. They will do this as often as they want to.
Estes tem poder para fechar o céu, para que não chova, nos dias da sua profecia; e tem poder sobre as águas para converte-las em sangue, e para ferir a terra com toda a sorte de praga, todas quantas vezes quizerem.
7 When they have finished proclaiming [to people the message from God], the beast that comes up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit) will attack them, overcome them, and kill them. (Abyssos g12)
E, quando acabarem o seu testemunho, a besta que sobe do abismo lhes fará guerra, e os vencerá, e os matará. (Abyssos g12)
8 The dead bodies of the [two] witnesses will lie in the street of the great city where their Lord was crucified, the city that is symbolically named Sodom or Egypt [because its people are very evil, like the people who lived in Sodom and Egypt].
E jazerão os seus corpos mortos na praça da grande cidade que espiritualmente se chama Sodoma e Egito, onde nosso Senhor também foi crucificado.
9 Individuals of many people-[groups], tribes, language [groups] [MTY], and nations will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days. But these individuals will not allow [anyone] to bury their bodies.
E homens de vários povos, e tribos, e línguas, e nações verão seus corpos mortos por três dias e meio, e não permitirão que os seus corpos mortos sejam postos em sepulcros.
10 When the [rebellious] people who live on the earth [see that the witnesses are dead], they will rejoice and celebrate. They will send gifts to each other, because these two prophets had [caused plagues to occur which] tormented the [rebellious] people on the earth.
E os que habitam na terra se regozijarão sobre eles, e se alegrarão, e mandarão presentes uns aos outros; porquanto estes dois profetas tinham atormentado os que habitam sobre a terra.
11 But after three and a half days, God will cause those two witnesses to breathe again and live. They will stand up, and those who see them will be terrified.
E depois daqueles três dias e meio o espírito da vida, vindo de Deus, entrou neles; e puseram-se sobre seus pés, e caiu grande temor sobre os que os viram.
12 The [two witnesses] will hear a loud voice which came from heaven saying to them: “Come up here!” Then they will go up to heaven in a cloud. Their enemies will see them [as they ascend].
E ouviram uma grande voz do céu, que lhes dizia: Subi cá. E subiram ao céu em uma nuvem: e os seus inimigos os viram.
13 At that same time there will be a terrible earthquake, which will cause a tenth of [the buildings in] [MTY] the city will collapse, and 7,000 people will die. The rest of the people will be afraid and [acknowledge] that the God [who rules in] heaven is awesome.
E naquela mesma hora houve um grande terremoto, e caiu a décima parte da cidade, e no terremoto foram mortos sete mil homens; e os demais ficaram muito atemorizados, e deram glória ao Deus do céu.
14 That will be the second terrible event. [Be aware that] the third tragic event will happen soon.
É passado o segundo ai; eis que o terceiro ai vem presto.
15 Then the seventh angel blew [his trumpet]. Angels in heaven shouted loudly, “Our Lord [God] and the Messiah [whom he has appointed] can now govern [everyone in] [MTY] the world, and they will continue to rule people forever!” (aiōn g165)
E tocou o sétimo anjo a sua trombeta, e houve no céu grandes vozes, que diziam: Os reinos do mundo tornaram-se no reino de nosso Senhor e do seu Cristo, e ele reinará para todo o sempre. (aiōn g165)
16 The 24 elders who sit on their thrones in God’s presence (prostrated themselves/bowed down low) and worshipped him.
E os vinte e quatro anciãos, que estão assentados em seus tronos diante de Deus, prostraram-se sobre seus rostos, e adoraram a Deus,
17 They said: Lord God, you are the Almighty One! You are the one who exists now! You are the one who has always existed! We thank you that you have defeated by your power everyone who has rebelled against you, and you now rule over everyone in the world.
Dizendo: Graças te damos, Senhor Deus Todo-poderoso, que és, e que eras, e que as de vir, que tomaste o teu grande poder, e reinaste.
18 The unbelieving people of [MTY] the nations were raging at you. As a result you have become very angry with them. You have decided that this is the appropriate time for you to judge all the dead people. You have also decided that it is the time for you to reward all your servants, both the prophets and the rest of your people who reverence you [MTY], whether they were considered socially significant/important or socially insignificant/unimportant. It is time for you to reward all of them! You have also decided it is the time for you to destroy the people who are destroying others on the earth.
E iraram-se as nações, e veio a tua ira, e o tempo dos mortos, para que sejam julgados, e para dares o galardão aos profetas, teus servos, e aos santos, e aos que temem o teu nome, a pequenos e a grandes, e para destruir os que destroem a terra.
19 Then God’s temple in heaven was opened {was open} and [I] saw in the temple the sacred box/chest that contains God’s commandments. Lightning was flashing, it was thundering and rumbling, the earth shook, and large hailstones [fell from the sky].
E abriu-se no céu o templo de Deus, e a arca do seu concerto foi vista no seu templo; e houve relâmpagos, e vozes, e trovões, e terremotos e grande saraiva.
