Êxodo 3
1 E apascentava Moysés o rebanho de Jethro, seu sogro, sacerdote em Midian: e levou o rebanho atrás do deserto, e veiu ao monte de Deus, a Horeb.
And Moses was feeding the flock of Jothor his father-in-law, the priest of Madiam; and he brought the sheep near to the wilderness, and came to the mount of Choreb.
2 E appareceu-lhe o anjo do Senhor em uma chamma de fogo do meio d'uma sarça: e olhou, e eis que a sarça ardia no fogo, e a sarça não se consumia.
And an angel of the Lord appeared to him in flaming fire out of the bush, and he sees that the bush burns with fire, —but the bush was not consumed.
3 E Moysés disse: Agora me virarei para lá, e verei esta grande visão, porque a sarça se não queima.
And Moses said, I will go near and see this great sight, why the bush is not consumed.
4 E vendo o Senhor que se virava para lá a vêr, bradou Deus a elle do meio da sarça, e disse: Moysés, Moysés. E elle disse: Eis-me aqui
And when the Lord saw that he drew near to see, the Lord called him out of the bush, saying, Moses, Moses; and he said, What is it?
5 E disse: Não te chegues para cá: tira os teus sapatos de teus pés; porque o logar em que tu estás é terra sancta.
And he said, Draw not near hither: loose your sandals from off your feet, for the place whereon you stand is holy ground.
6 Disse mais: Eu sou o Deus de teu pae, o Deus de Abrahão, o Deus de Isaac, e o Deus de Jacob. E Moysés encobriu o seu rosto, porque temeu olhar para Deus.
And he said, I am the God of your father, the God of Abraam, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob; and Moses turned away his face, for he was afraid to gaze at God.
7 E disse o Senhor: Tenho visto attentamente a afflicção do meu povo, que está no Egypto, e tenho ouvido o seu clamor por causa dos seus exactores, porque conheci as suas dôres.
And the Lord said to Moses, I have surely seen the affliction of my people that is in Egypt, and I have heard their cry [caused] by their taskmasters; for I know their affliction.
8 Portanto desci para livral-o da mão dos egypcios, e para fazel-o subir d'aquella terra, a uma terra boa e larga, a uma terra que mana leite e mel: ao logar do Cananeo, e do Hetheo, e do Amorrheo, e do Pherezeo, e do Heveo, e do Jebuseo.
And I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them out of that land, and to bring them into a good and wide land, into a land flowing with milk and honey, into the place of the Chananites, and the Chettites, and Amorites, and Pherezites, and Gergesites, and Evites, and Jebusites.
9 E agora, eis que o clamor dos filhos d'Israel é vindo a mim, e tambem tenho visto a oppressão com que os egypcios os opprimem.
And now, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come to me, and I have seen the affliction with which the Egyptians afflict them.
10 Vem agora, pois, e eu te enviarei a Pharaó, para que tires o meu povo (os filhos d'Israel), do Egypto.
And now come, I will send you to Pharao king of Egypt, and you shall bring out my people the children of Israel from the land of Egypt.
11 Então Moysés disse a Deus: Quem sou eu, que vá a Pharaó e tire do Egypto os filhos d'Israel?
And Moses said to God, Who am I, that I should go to Pharao king of Egypt, and that I should bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt?
12 E Deus disse: Certamente eu serei comtigo; e isto te será por signal de que eu te enviei: Quando houveres tirado este povo do Egypto, servireis a Deus n'este monte.
And God spoke to Moses, saying, I will be with you, and this shall be the sign to you that I shall send you forth, —when you bring out my people out of Egypt, then you shall serve God in this mountain.
13 Então disse Moysés a Deus: Eis que quando vier aos filhos d'Israel, e lhes disser: O Deus de vossos paes me enviou a vós; e elles me disserem: Qual é o seu nome? que lhes direi?
And Moses said to God, Behold, I shall go forth to the children of Israel, and shall say to them, The God of our fathers has sent me to you; and they will ask me, What is his name? What shall I say to them?
14 E disse Deus a Moysés: SEREI O QUE SEREI. Disse mais: Assim dirás aos filhos d'Israel: Serei me enviou a vós.
And God spoke to Moses, saying, I am THE BEING; and he said, Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, THE BEING has sent me to you.
15 E Deus disse mais a Moysés: Assim dirás aos filhos d'Israel: O Senhor Deus de vossos paes, o Deus de Abrahão, o Deus de Isaac, e o Deus de Jacob, me enviou a vós: este é meu nome eternamente, e este é meu memorial de geração em geração
And God said again to Moses, Thus shall you say to the sons of Israel, The Lord God of our fathers, the God of Abraam, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob, has sent me to you: this is my name for ever, and my memorial to generations of generations.
16 Vae, e ajunta os anciãos d'Israel, e dize-lhes: O Senhor, o Deus de vossos paes, o Deus de Abrahão, de Isaac e de Jacob, me appareceu, dizendo: Certamente vos tenho visitado, e visto o que vos é feito no Egypto.
Go then and gather the elders of the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, The Lord God of our fathers has appeared to me, the God of Abraam, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob, saying, I have surely looked upon you, and upon all the things which have happened to you in Egypt.
17 Portanto eu disse: Far-vos-hei subir da afflicção do Egypto á terra do cananeo, do hetheo, e do amorrheo, e do pherezeo, e do heveo, e do jebuseo, a uma terra que mana leite e mel.
And he said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of the Egyptians to the land of the Chananites and the Chettites, and Amorites and Pherezites, and Gergesites, and Evites, and Jebusites, to a land flowing with milk and honey.
18 E ouvirão a tua voz; e virás, tu e os anciãos d'Israel, ao rei do Egypto, e dir-lhe-heis: O Senhor, o Deus dos hebreos, nos encontrou: agora pois deixa-nos ir caminho de tres dias para o deserto, para que sacrifiquemos ao Senhor nosso Deus.
And they shall listen to your voice, and you and the elders of Israel shall go in to Pharao king of Egypt, and you shall say to him, The God of the Hebrews has called us; we will go then a journey of three days into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to our God.
19 Eu sei, porém, que o rei do Egypto não vos deixará ir, nem ainda por uma mão forte.
But I know that Pharao king of Egypt will not let you go, save with a mighty hand;
20 Porque eu estenderei a minha mão, e ferirei ao Egypto com todas as minhas maravilhas que farei no meio d'elle: depois vos deixará ir.
and I will stretch out my hand, and strike the Egyptians with all my wonders, which I shall work among them, and after that he will send you forth.
21 E eu darei graça a este povo aos olhos dos egypcios; e acontecerá que, quando sairdes, não saireis vazios,
And I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, and whenever you shall escape, you shall not depart empty.
22 Porque cada mulher pedirá á sua visinha e á sua hospeda vasos de prata, e vasos de oiro, e vestidos, os quaes poreis sobre vossos filhos e sobre vossas filhas; e despojareis ao Egypto.
But [every] woman shall ask of her neighbor and fellow lodger, articles of gold and silver, and apparel; and you shall put them upon your sons and upon your daughters, —and spoil you the Egyptians.
