Revelation 18
1 After this, [in the vision] I saw another angel, who had great authority, coming down from heaven. The earth became bright [because] he was shining so intensely/brightly.
E depois d'estas coisas vi descer do céu outro anjo, que tinha grande poder, e a terra foi illuminada da sua gloria.
2 He shouted with a very loud voice, “[God is about to] completely destroy [DOU] all the very [evil] cities (OR, the very evil [city]) [that] Babylon [represents]. As a result, all [kinds of] evil spirits [DOU] will live there, and all [kinds of] foul and detestable [DOU] birds will live there.
E clamou fortemente com grande voz, dizendo: É caida, é caida a grande Babylonia, e é feita morada de demonios, e coito de todo o espirito immundo, e coito de toda a ave immunda e aborrecivel.
3 [God will destroy those cities] because [their rulers have persuaded] the people of [MTY] all nations to act very immorally [and idolatrously with the people of] [MET] [those cities, just like] a prostitute persuades men to drink [strong] wine and then commit fornication with her. The rulers of the earth have also acted immorally [and idolatrously] with the people of [MTY] those cities. The merchants of the earth have become rich [because the people of those cities] strongly desired [and bought from the merchants] many (luxuries/expensive things).”
Porque todas as nações beberam do vinho da ira da sua fornicação, e os reis da terra fornicaram com ella; e os mercadores da terra se enriqueceram da abundancia de suas delicias.
4 I heard [Jesus] speak from heaven. He said, “My people, flee from [those cities], in order that you do not sin as the people [of those cities do. If you sin as they do], I will punish you as I will punish them.
E ouvi outra voz do céu, que dizia: Sae d'ella, povo meu, para que não sejas participante dos seus peccados, e para que não recebas das suas pragas.
5 [It is as though] their sins have been piled {have piled} up to heaven, and God remembers them [DOU], [so now he will punish them] [MTY].”
Porque já os seus peccados se accumularam até ao céu, e Deus se lembrou das iniquidades d'ella.
6 [To the angels whom God assigned to punish those cities, Jesus said], “Pay back/Punish the people of those cities to the same extent that they harmed [other people]. Cause them to suffer twice as much [as they caused other people to suffer] [DOU, MET].
Tornae-lhe como ella vos tem dado, e duplicae-lhe em dobro conforme as suas obras: no calix em que vos deu de beber dae-lhe a ella em dobro.
7 To the same extent that they have boasted about themselves and done the things that they wanted to do, to that extent torment them and cause them to grieve. [Do that because] in their minds they think, ‘We rule as queens! We are not widows, and we will never mourn [as widows do]’!
Quanto ella se glorificou, e em delicias esteve, tanto lhe dae de tormento e pranto; porque diz em seu coração: Estou assentada como rainha, e não sou viuva, e não verei o pranto.
8 So in one day terrible calamities/troubles will come upon them. [The people in those cities] will die, others will mourn for them, people will be hungry [because there will be no food], and [their cities] will be burned up. The Lord God is able to punish those cities [like that], because he is very powerful.”
Portanto n'um dia virão as suas pragas; a morte, e o pranto, e a fome; e será queimada com fogo; porque é forte o Senhor Deus que a julga.
9 “The kings of the earth who have acted immorally [with people of those cities] and have lived with the people of those cities, doing just what they wanted to do, will weep and mourn [DOU] for them when they see the smoke of the fire that is burning those cities.
E os reis da terra, que fornicaram com ella, e viveram em delicias, a chorarão, e sobre ella prantearão, quando virem o fumo do seu incendio;
10 They will stand far away [from those cities], because they will be afraid [that they will suffer just like the people of those cities] are suffering. They will say, ‘Terrible things will happen to the awesome and mighty cities [represented by] Babylon! [God] will punish them suddenly and swiftly [MTY]!’
Estando de longe pelo temor do seu tormento, dizendo: Ai! ai d'aquella grande Babylonia, aquella forte cidade! pois n'uma hora veiu o teu juizo.
11 The merchants of the earth will weep and will mourn [DOU] [for those cities], because no one will ever again buy the things that they have [to sell to the people in those cities].
E sobre ella choram e lamentam os mercadores da terra; porque ninguem mais compra as suas mercadorias:
12 [They sell ornaments made] of gold, silver, precious stones, and pearls. They sell [expensive cloth made of] fine linen and silk, [expensive cloth that is dyed] purple and crimson. They sell all kinds of [rare] wood, all kinds of items [made of] ivory, costly wood, bronze, iron, and marble. They sell cinnamon, spice, perfume, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour, and grain. They sell cattle, sheep, horses, and chariots. They even sell human beings [SYN, DOU] to become slaves.
Mercadorias de oiro, e de prata, e de pedras preciosas, e de perolas, e de linho fino, e de purpura, e de seda, e de escarlata; e toda a madeira odorifera, e todo o vaso de marfim, e todo o vaso de madeira preciosissima, de bronze e de ferro, e de marmore;
E canella, e especiaria, e perfume, e unguento odorifero, e incenso, e vinho, e azeite, e flor de farinha, e trigo, e cavalgaduras, e ovelhas; e mercadorias de cavallos, e de carros, e de corpos e de almas de homens.
14 [The merchants will say], ‘The good things you people longed to have are gone! All your luxurious and splendid [DOU] [possessions have vanished!]! They will be gone forever/You will never have them again [LIT]!’
E o fructo do desejo da tua alma foi-se de ti; e todas as coisas gostosas e excellentes se foram de ti, e não mais as acharás.
15 The merchants [who sold] these things and who had become rich by [supplying them] for those [cities] will stand far away, because they will be afraid [that they will suffer just like] the people [of those cities] are suffering. They will weep and mourn [DOU],
Os mercadores d'estas coisas, que por ellas se enriqueceram, estarão de longe, pelo temor do seu tormento, chorando, e lamentando,
16 and they will say, ‘Terrible things [DOU] have happened to the awesome/great [MET] cities! [They were like queens] who dressed themselves in [clothes made of] [MTY] fine linen [cloth] and expensive cloth dyed purple and crimson, and who were adorned with gold, precious stones, and pearls.
E dizendo: Ai, ai d'aquella grande cidade! que estava vestida de linho fino, e purpura, e escarlata; e adornada com oiro e pedras preciosas e perolas! Porque n'uma hora foram assoladas tantas riquezas.
17 But suddenly and swiftly [MTY] [God] has destroyed these expensive things.’ Every ship captain, all people who travel by ship, all (sailors/those who work on ships), and all others who earn their living [by traveling on] the ocean will stand far away [from those cities].
E todo o piloto, e todo o que navega em náos, e todo o marinheiro, e todos os que traficam por mar se pozeram de longe:
18 When they see the smoke of the fire that is burning those cities, they will shout, ‘No [other] cities have ever been so awesome!’ [RHQ]
E, vendo o fumo do seu incendio, clamaram, dizendo: Que cidade é similhante a esta grande cidade?
19 They will throw dust on their heads [to show that they are sad], and they will shout, weep, and mourn [DOU]. They will say, ‘Terrible things have happened to the awesome/great cities, the cities that made all people who own ships [that sail] on the ocean become rich by [carrying] their costly (things for them to sell/merchandise)! [God] has suddenly and swiftly destroyed [MTY] those cities!’”
E lançaram pó sobre as suas cabeças, e clamaram, chorando, e lamentando, e dizendo: Ai, ai d'aquella grande cidade! na qual todos os que tinham náos no mar se enriqueceram da sua opulencia; porque n'uma hora foi assolada.
20 Then someone spoke from heaven saying, “All you who live in heaven, rejoice over what has happened to [the cities represented by] Babylon! You who are God’s people, including you apostles, you (prophets/who speak messages that come directly from God), rejoice, because God has justly punished the people of those cities because they acted in an evil way toward you!”
Alegra-te sobre ella, ó céu, e vós, sanctos apostolos e prophetas; porque já Deus julgou a vossa causa quanto a ella.
21 Then a mighty angel picked up a boulder the size of a large stone for grinding grain, and threw it into the ocean. Then he said, “O you people in [APO] the awesome/great cities [represented by] Babylon, your cities will be destroyed so that they will disappear just like that stone disappeared in the ocean! Your cities will be gone forever [LIT]!
E um forte anjo levantou uma pedra como uma grande mó, e lançou-a no mar, dizendo: Com egual impeto será lançada Babylonia, aquella grande cidade, e não será jámais achada
22 In your cities there will never again be [anyone] playing harps, singing, playing flutes, and blowing trumpets. There will no longer be any (skilled workers/craftsmen) making things. There will never again be people grinding [grain at] [MTY] the mills.
E em ti não se ouvirá mais a voz de harpistas, e de musicos, e de frauteiros, e de trombeteiros, e nenhum artifice de arte alguma se achará mais em ti; e ruido de mó em ti mais se não ouvirá:
23 No lamplight will ever again shine. There will never again be the [happy] voices of a bridegroom and his bride. [God will destroy your cities] because your merchants were the most [deceitful] men in the world. You persuaded them to deceive [people of] [MTY] all nations.
E luz de candeia não mais alumiará em ti, e voz de esposo e de esposa mais em ti se não ouvirá; porque os teus mercadores eram os grandes da terra; porque todas as nações foram enganadas pelas tuas feiticerias.
24 You are also [responsible for killing] [MTY] [the] prophets and [others] of God’s people. Indeed, you are the ones who are guilty for the deaths of all those who have been {whom [others] have} killed on the earth!”
E n'ella se achou o sangue dos prophetas, e dos sanctos, e de todos os que foram mortos na terra.
