< Êxodo 16 >
1 E partidos de Elim, toda a congregação dos filhos d'Israel veiu ao deserto de Sin, que está entre Elim e Sinai, aos quinze dias do mez segundo, depois que sairam da terra do Egypto.
And they set out from Elim. And the entire multitude of the sons of Israel arrived at the desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month, after they departed from the land of Egypt.
2 E toda a congregação dos filhos d'Israel murmurou contra Moysés e contra Aarão no deserto.
And the entire congregation of the sons of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness.
3 E os filhos d'Israel disseram-lhes: Quem déra que nós morressemos por mão do Senhor na terra do Egypto, quando estavamos sentados ás panellas da carne, quando comiamos pão até fartar! porque nos tendes tirado a este deserto, para matardes de fome a toda esta multidão.
And the sons of Israel said to them: “If only we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat around bowls of meat and ate bread until filled. Why have you led us away, into this desert, so that you might kill the entire multitude with famine?”
4 Então disse o Senhor a Moysés: Eis que vos choverei pão dos céus, e o povo sairá, e colherá cada dia a porção para cada dia, para que eu o prove se anda em minha lei ou não.
Then the Lord said to Moses: “Behold, I will rain down bread from heaven for you. Let the people go out and collect what is sufficient for each day, so that I may test them, as to whether or not they will walk in my law.
5 E acontecerá, ao sexto dia, que apparelhem o que colheram: e será dobrado do que colhem cada dia.
But on the sixth day, let them prepare what they use for carrying, and let there be double what they were accustomed to collect on a single day.”
6 Então disse Moysés, e Aarão a todos os filhos d'Israel: A tarde sabereis que o Senhor vos tirou da terra do Egypto,
And Moses and Aaron said to the sons of Israel: “In the evening, you will know that the Lord has led you away from the land of Egypt.
7 E ámandã vereis a gloria do Senhor, porquanto ouviu as vossas murmurações contra o Senhor: porque quem somos nós, que murmureis contra nós?
And in the morning, you will see the glory of the Lord. For he has heard your murmuring against the Lord. But as for us, truly what are we, that you would whisper against us?”
8 Disse mais Moysés: Isso será quando o Senhor á tarde vos der carne para comer, e pela manhã pão a fartar, porquanto o Senhor ouviu as vossas murmurações, com que murmuraes contra elle: porque, quem somos nós? As vossas murmurações não são contra nós, mas sim contra o Senhor.
And Moses said: “In the evening, the Lord will give you flesh to eat, and in the morning, bread in fullness. For he has heard your murmurings that you have murmured against him. For what are we? Your murmuring is not against us, but against the Lord.”
9 Depois disse Moysés a Aarão: Dize a toda a congregação dos filhos d'Israel: Chegae-vos para diante do Senhor, porque ouviu as vossas murmurações.
Moses also said to Aaron: “Say to the whole congregation of the sons of Israel, ‘Approach before the Lord. For he has heard your murmuring.’”
10 E aconteceu que, quando fallou Aarão a toda a congregação dos filhos d'Israel, e elles se viraram para o deserto, eis que a gloria do Senhor appareceu na nuvem.
And when Aaron spoke to the entire assembly of the sons of Israel, they looked out toward the wilderness. And behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloud.
11 E o Senhor fallou a Moysés, dizendo:
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12 Tenho ouvido as murmurações dos filhos de Israel; falla-lhes, dizendo: Entre as duas tardes comereis carne, e pela manhã vos fartareis de pão: e sabereis que eu sou o Senhor vosso Deus.
“I have heard the murmuring of the sons of Israel. Say to them: ‘In the evening, you will eat flesh, and in the morning, you will be filled with bread. And you shall know that I am the Lord your God.’”
13 E aconteceu que á tarde subiram codornizes, e cobriram o arraial: e pela manhã jazia o orvalho ao redor do arraial,
Therefore, it happened in the evening: quails, rising up, covered the camp. Likewise, in the morning, a dew lay all around the camp.
14 E, alçando-se o orvalho caido, eis que sobre a face do deserto estava uma coisa miuda, redonda, miuda como a geada sobre a terra.
And when it had covered the face of the earth, it appeared, in the wilderness, small and as if crushed with a pestle, similar to hoar-frost on the ground.
15 E, vendo-a os filhos d'Israel, disseram uns aos outros: Que é isto; porque não sabiam o que era. Disse-lhes pois Moysés: Este é o pão que o Senhor vos deu para comer.
When the sons of Israel had seen it, they said one to another: “Manhu?” which means “What is this?” For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them: “This is the bread that the Lord has given you to eat.
16 Esta é a palavra que o Senhor tem mandado: Colhei d'elle cada um conforme ao que pode comer, um gomer por cada cabeça, segundo o numero das vossas almas; cada um tomará para os que se acharem na sua tenda.
This is the word that the Lord has instructed. Let each one collect as much of it as is sufficient to eat. One omer for each head. According to the number of your souls which live in a tent, so will you take of it.”
17 E os filhos d'Israel fizeram assim; e colheram, uns mais e outros menos.
And the sons of Israel did so. And they collected: some more, others less.
18 Porém, medindo-o com o gomer, não sobejava ao que colhera muito, nem faltava ao que colhera pouco: cada um colheu tanto quanto podia comer.
And they measured by the measure of an omer. He who collected more, did not have too much; nor did he who prepared less, find too little. But each one gathered according to what they were able to eat.
19 E disse-lhes Moysés: Ninguem d'elle deixe para ámanhã.
And Moses said to them, “Let no one leave any of it behind until morning.”
20 Elles, porém, não deram ouvidos a Moysés, antes alguns d'elles deixaram d'elle para a amanhã; e aquelle criou bichos, e fedeu; por isso indignou-se Moysés contra elles.
And they did not listen to him, but they left some of it behind until morning, and it began to swarm with worms, and it putrefied. And Moses became angry against them.
21 Elles pois o colhiam cada manhã, cada um conforme ao que podia comer; porque, aquentando o sol, derretia-se.
Then each one collected, in the morning, as much as would be sufficient to eat. And after the sun became hot, it melted.
22 E aconteceu que ao sexto dia colheram pão em dobro, dois gomeres para cada um: e todos os principes da congregação vieram, e contaram-n'o a Moysés.
But on the sixth day, they collected a double portion, that is, two omers for each man. Then all the leaders among the multitude came, and they discoursed with Moses.
23 E elle disse-lhes: Isto é o que o Senhor tem dito: Amanhã é repouso, do sancto sabbado do Senhor: o que quizerdes cozer no forno, cozei-o, e o que quizerdes cozer em agua, cozei-o em agua; e tudo o que sobejar, para vós ponde em guarda até ámanhã.
And he said to them: “This is what the Lord has spoken: Tomorrow, the rest day of the Sabbath, has been sanctified to the Lord. Whatever would be done, do it now. And whatever would be cooked, cook it now. Then anything that will have been left over, store it until morning.”
24 E guardaram-n'o até ámanhã, como Moysés tinha ordenado: e não fedeu, nem n'elle houve algum bicho.
And they did just as Moses had instructed, and it did not putrefy, nor were there any worms found in it.
25 Então disse Moysés: Comei-o hoje, porquanto hoje é o sabbado do Senhor: hoje não o achareis no campo.
And Moses said: “Eat it today, because it is the Sabbath of the Lord. Today it will not be found in the field.
26 Seis dias o colhereis, mas o setimo dia é o sabbado; n'aquelle não haverá.
Gather for six days. But on the seventh day, it is the Sabbath of the Lord, for which reason it will not be found.”
27 E aconteceu ao setimo dia, que alguns do povo sairam para colher, mas não o acharam.
And the seventh day arrived. And some of the people, going out to collect it, did not find it.
28 Então disse o Senhor a Moysés: Até quando recusareis de guardar os meus mandamentos e as minhas leis?
Then the Lord said to Moses: “How long will you be unwilling to keep my commandments and my law?
29 Vêde, porquanto o Senhor vos deu o sabbado, portanto elle no sexto dia vos dá pão para dois dias; cada um fique no seu logar, que ninguem saia do seu logar no setimo dia.
See how the Lord has given you the Sabbath, and, because of this, on the sixth day he distributes to you a double portion. Let each one remain with his own, and let no one go forth from his place on the seventh day.”
30 Assim repousou o povo no setimo dia.
And the people kept the Sabbath on the seventh day.
31 E chamou a casa de Israel o seu nome manná; e era como semente de coentro branco, e o seu sabor como bolos de mel.
And the house of Israel called its name ‘Manna.’ It was like white coriander seed, and its taste was like wheat flour with honey.
32 E disse Moysés: Esta é a palavra que o Senhor tem mandado: Encherás um gomer d'elle em guarda para as vossas gerações, para que vejam o pão que vos tenho dado a comer n'este deserto, quando eu vos tirei da terra do Egypto.
Then Moses said: “This is the word that the Lord has instructed: Fill an omer of it, and let it be kept for future generations hereafter, so that they may know the bread, with which I nourished you in the wilderness, when you had been led away from the land of Egypt.”
33 Disse tambem Moysés a Aarão: Toma um vaso, e mette n'elle um gomer cheio de manná, e pôe-o diante do Senhor, em guarda para as vossas gerações.
And Moses said to Aaron, “Take one vessel, and put manna into it, as much as an omer is able to hold. And store it in the sight of the Lord, to keep for your generations,
34 Como o Senhor tinha ordenado a Moysés, assim Aarão o poz diante do testemunho em guarda.
just as the Lord instructed Moses.” And so, Aaron placed it in the tabernacle, in reserve.
35 E comeram os filhos d'Israel manná quarenta annos, até que entraram em terra habitada: comeram manná até que chegaram aos termos da terra de Canaan.
Now the sons of Israel ate manna for forty years, until they arrived in a habitable land. With this food they were nourished, even until they touched the borders of the land of Canaan.
36 E um gomer é a decima parte do epha.
Now an omer is a tenth part of an ephah.
