Revelation 21
1 Then [in the vision] I saw a new heaven and a new earth. The first heaven and the first earth had disappeared, and the oceans no longer existed.
E vi um novo céu, e uma nova terra. Porque já o primeiro céu e a primeira terra passaram, e já não havia mar.
2 I saw [God’s] holy city, which is the new [city of] Jerusalem. It was coming down out of heaven from God. [The city] had been prepared [and decorated] {[God] had prepared [and decorated the city]} as [SIM] a bride is decorated {decorates herself} [beautifully in order to marry] her husband.
E eu, João, vi a santa cidade, a nova Jerusalém, que de Deus descia do céu, adereçada como a esposa ataviada para o seu marido.
3 I heard a loud voice that spoke from the throne [of God]. It said, “Listen to this! Now God will live with people. He will live [right in the midst of] them [DOU]! They will be his people. God himself will be with them, and he will be their God.
E ouvi uma grande voz do céu, que dizia: Eis aqui o tabernáculo de Deus com os homens, e com eles habitará, e eles serão o seu povo, e o mesmo Deus estará com eles, e será o seu Deus
4 [As a result], he will [cause them to no longer be sad. It will be as though he will] [MTY] wipe every tear from their eyes. [None of them] will ever again die or mourn or cry [DOU] or suffer pain, because the former things [that make us sad] will have disappeared.”
E Deus alimpará de seus olhos toda a lágrima; e não haverá mais morte, nem pranto, nem clamor, nem dor; porque já as primeiras coisas são passadas.
5 Then [God], who sits on the throne, said, “Listen to this! I am [now] making everything new!” He said [to me]: “Write these things [that I have told you], because you can trust [that I will certainly cause them to happen].”
E o que estava assentado sobre o trono disse: Eis que faço novas todas as coisas. E disse-me: Escreve: porque estas palavras são verdadeiras e fieis.
6 He said to me, “I have finished [doing all the things I needed to do]. I am the one who began all things [MET] and the one who will cause all things to end [MET]. To everyone who is [spiritually] thirsty [MET], I will (freely give/give as a free gift) water from the spring [that causes people] to live [forever].
E disse-me: Está cumprido: Eu sou o Alpha e o Omega, o princípio e o fim. A quem quer que tiver sede, de graça lhe darei da fonte da água da vida.
7 I will give this to every person who is victorious over [the evil powers] (OR, [over Satan]). I will be their God, and they will be my children.
Quem vencer, herdará todas as coisas; e eu serei seu Deus, e ele será meu filho,
8 But those who are cowardly, those who do not believe [in me], those [who do] detestable things, those who are murderers, those who sin sexually, those who commit sorcery, those who worship idols, and every liar, will [all suffer] in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. [Anyone who suffers in that lake] will be dying the second time.” (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
9 One of the seven angels who had one of the seven bowls that had been full of [the wine/liquid causing] [MTY] the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come [with me] and I will show you [the people who have permanently united with Christ, the one who is like a] lamb! They will be [like] [MET] a bride [for him].”
E veio a mim um dos sete anjos que tinham as sete taças cheias das últimas sete pragas, e falou comigo, dizendo: Vem, mostrar-te-ei a esposa, a mulher do Cordeiro.
10 Then, while [God’s] Spirit [controlled me], the angel took/carried me to the top of a very high mountain. He showed me [God’s] holy city, [the New] Jerusalem. It was coming down out of heaven from God.
E levou-me em espírito a um grande e alto monte, e mostrou-me a grande cidade, a santa Jerusalém, que de Deus descia do céu.
11 It was shining with his glory. The city was shining like a very precious jasper stone [shines, and] it was clear like crystal.
E tinha a glória de Deus; e a sua luz era semelhante a uma pedra preciosíssima, como a pedra de jaspe, como o cristal resplandecente.
12 [Around the city] was a very high wall. The wall had twelve gates. An angel was at each gate. The names of the twelve tribes of Israel were written {[God] had written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel} over the gates. [Each gate had the name of one tribe].
E tinha um grande e alto muro com doze portas, e nas portas doze anjos, e nomes escritos sobre elas, que são os nomes das doze tribos de Israel.
13 Three gates were on the east [side], three gates were on the north [side], three gates were on the south [side], and three gates were on the west [side].
Da banda do levante tinha três portas, da banda do norte três portas, da banda do sul três portas, da banda do poente três portas.
14 The wall of the city had twelve foundation [stones]. On each foundation [stone was] the name of one of the twelve apostles of [Jesus, the one who is like a] lamb.
E o muro da cidade tinha doze fundamentos, e neles os nomes dos doze apóstolos do Cordeiro.
15 The angel who was speaking to me carried a golden measuring rod, in order to measure the city, its gates, and its wall.
E aquele que falava comigo tinha uma cana de ouro, para medir a cidade, e as suas portas, e o seu muro.
16 The city was square [in shape]; it was as long as it was wide. After the angel measured the city with his rod, [he reported that it was] (1,500 miles/2,400 kilometers) long, and that its height was the same as [its length and width].
E a cidade estava situada em quadrado; e o seu comprimento era tanto quanto a sua largura. E mediu a cidade com a cana até doze mil estádios: e o seu comprimento, largura e altura eram iguaes.
17 He measured its wall [and reported that it was] ([216 ft./70 meters]) [thick] (OR, [high]). The angel used the measure that people [normally use].
E mediu o seu muro, de cento e quarenta e quatro côvados, medida de homem, que era a do anjo.
18 The [city] wall was made of [something like the green stone that we call] jasper. The city [itself] was [made of something like] pure gold [that looked] like clear glass.
E a fábrica do seu muro era de jaspe, e a cidade de ouro puro, semelhante a vidro puro.
19 The foundations of the wall of the city were beautifully made with [wonderful stones that are like] precious stones [on earth]. The first foundation [stone was a crystalline stone like] jasper, the second [foundation stone was a blue stone like] sapphire, the third [foundation stone was a green stone like] agate, the fourth [foundation stone was a green stone like] emerald,
E os fundamentos do muro da cidade estavam adornados de toda a pedra preciosa. O primeiro fundamento era jaspe; o segundo, safira; o terceiro, calcedônia; o quarto, esmeralda;
20 the fifth [foundation stone was a brown and white layered stone like] sardonyx, the sixth [foundation stone was a red stone like] carnelian, the seventh [foundation stone was a yellow stone like] chrysolite, the eighth [foundation stone was a green stone like] beryl, the ninth [foundation stone was a yellow stone like] topaz, the tenth [foundation stone was a green stone like] chrysoprase, the eleventh [foundation stone was a blue stone like] hyacinth, and the twelfth [foundation stone was a purple stone like] amethyst.
O quinto, sardônica; o sexto, sárdio; o sétimo, crisólito; o oitavo, berilo; o nono, topázio; o décimo, crisópraso; o undécimo, jacinto; o duodécimo, ametista.
21 The twelve gates [of the city] were [something like huge] pearls. Each gate was like [it was] a single pearl. The [ground of] the main plaza of the city (OR, The streets of the city) [appeared to be] pure gold [that looked] like clear glass.
E as doze portas eram doze pérolas: cada uma das portas era uma pérola, e a praça da cidade de ouro puro, como vidro transparente.
22 There was no temple in the city. The Lord God Almighty [himself], and the [one who is like a] lamb, are [there, so there was no need for] [MET] a temple.
E nela não vi templo, porque o seu templo é o Senhor Deus Todo-poderoso, e o Cordeiro.
23 The city will not need the sun or the moon to light the city, because the glory of God will illuminate the city, and [Jesus, the one who is like a] lamb, will also be its light.
E a cidade não necessita de sol nem de lua, para que nela resplandeçam, porque a glória de Deus a tem alumiado, e o Cordeiro é a sua lâmpada.
24 The people of [MTY] the nations will live with the light of the city [shining upon them]. And the kings of the earth will bring their wealth into the city [to honor God and the one who is like a lamb].
E as nações que se salvarem andarão à sua luz; e os reis da terra trarão para ela a sua glória e honra.
25 The gates of the city will not be shut {No one will shut the gates of the city} [at the end of each day as they usually are shut], because there will be no night there.
E as suas portas não se fecharão de dia, porque ali não haverá noite.
26 The [people of the] world will also bring their wealth into the city to honor [God and the one who is like a lamb].
E a ela trarão a glória e honra das nações.
27 No one who is morally impure, no one who does things [that God considers] detestable, and no one who tells lies, will ever enter that city. Only those people whose names are written in the book of the [one who is like a] lamb {whose [names] the [one who is like a] lamb has written in his book}, [the names] of people who have [eternal] life, will be there.
E não entrará nela coisa alguma que contamine, e cometa abominação e mentira, mas só os que estão inscritos no livro da vida do Cordeiro.
