< Ezequiel 13 >

1 E veiu a mim a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:
Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
2 Filho do homem, prophetiza contra os prophetas de Israel que prophetizam, e dize aos que prophetizam de seu coração: Ouvi a palavra do Senhor:
“You human, [a warning] against the prophets in Israel who are prophesying. Some of them are prophesying things that they themselves have imagined/thought. Say to them: 'Listen to what Yahweh says!
3 Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Ai dos prophetas loucos, que seguem o seu proprio espirito e o que não viram!
He says, “Terrible things will happen to those wicked prophets who proclaim their own ideas and have not seen [visions from me].
4 Os teus prophetas, ó Israel, são como raposas nos desertos.
You Israeli people, your prophets [as useless] as [SIM] jackals/wolves [that only dig] through the [of a city].
5 Não subistes ás brechas, nem tapastes o muro quebrado para a casa d'Israel, para estardes na peleja no dia do Senhor.
Those prophets have not helped you Israeli people [MTY] to repair the places where [city] walls have (been broken/crumbled). That needs to be done in order that the walls will be strong at the time when I, Yahweh, [allow your enemies] to attack you.
6 Vêem vaidade e adivinhação mentirosa os que dizem: O Senhor disse; e o Senhor os não enviou: e fazem que se espere o cumprimento da palavra.
The visions and prophecies of those prophets are false. They say, 'Yahweh told me this,' but I have not sent [to you to be my prophets]. But they expect that what they prophesy will truly happen!
7 Porventura não vêdes visão de vaidade, e não fallaes adivinhação mentirosa, quando dizeis: O Senhor diz, sendo que eu tal não fallei
They say that they have seen visions, but those visions are false, and the things that they prophesy are lies [RHQ]. They say, 'Yahweh told me this,' but I have told them nothing!”
8 Portanto assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Porquanto fallaes vaidade, e vêdes a mentira, portanto eis que eu sou contra vós, diz o Senhor Jehovah.
Therefore, this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: “Because you prophets have said what is false, and because your visions are lies, I am opposed to you.
9 E a minha mão será contra os prophetas que vêem vaidade e que adivinham mentira: na congregação do meu povo não estarão, nem nos registros da casa d'Israel se escreverão, nem entrarão na terra de Israel: e sabereis que eu sou o Senhor Jehovah.
I will strike/punish all you prophets who falsely say that you have seen visions and prophesy things that are lies. You will not have any place among my people, your names will not be listed in the records of the Israeli people, and you will never return to Israel. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
10 Porquanto, sim, porquanto andam enganando o meu povo, dizendo: Paz, não havendo paz; e um edifica a parede de lodo, e eis que outros a rebocam de cal não adubada;
They deceive my people, saying “Things will go well for us,” when things will not go well. [It as though] [MET] the people have built a shaky/weak wall, and the prophets cover it with (whitewash/white paint) [to make people think that it is a very strong wall].
11 Dize aos que a rebocam de cal não adubada que cairá: haverá uma grande pancada de chuva, e vós, ó pedras grandes de saraiva, caireis, e um vento tempestuoso a fenderá.
So, tell those prophets who cover the wall with whitewash that the wall will surely fall down. It will rain very hard. I will send big hailstones to fall. Very strong winds will blow against it.
12 Ora, eis que, caindo a parede, não vos dirão: Então onde está o reboco de que a rebocastes?
When the wall falls down, the people will certainly say to those prophets, “The white paint certainly did not [RHQ] make the wall strong!”
13 Portanto assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Um vento tempestuoso farei, sim, romper no meu furor, e uma grande pancada de chuva haverá na minha ira, e grandes pedras de saraiva na minha indignação, para consumir.
So this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: “Because I am very angry with you, [I will send enemy armies to destroy Jerusalem. It will be as though] [MET] I will send a very strong wind and hailstones and very heavy rains to destroy you.”
14 E derribarei a parede que rebocastes de cal não adubada, e darei com ella por terra, e o seu fundamento se descobrirá; assim cairá, e perecereis no meio d'ella, e sabereis que eu sou o Senhor.
[The false prophecies of your prophets are like] [MET] a wall that they have covered with whitewash, but I will break it down, and shatter it down to the ground, with the result that people can see its foundations. When the wall collapses, you also will be killed, and everyone will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
15 Assim cumprirei o meu furor contra a parede, e contra os que a rebocam de cal não adubada; e vos direi: Já não ha parede, nem existem os que a rebocam;
In that way I will show that I am very angry [the people who built] the wall and those who covered it with (whitewash/white paint). Then I will say to you, “The wall is destroyed/gone, and those prophets who put (whitewash/white paint) on it have been killed.”
16 A saber, os prophetas de Israel, que prophetizam de Jerusalem, e vêem para ella visão de paz, não havendo paz, diz o Senhor Jehovah.
Those are the prophets who prophesied that things would go well for the people in Jerusalem, when things would not go well for them.
17 E tu, ó filho do homem, dirige o teu rosto contra as filhas do teu povo, que prophetizam de seu coração, e prophetiza contra ellas.
So, you human, show that you are angry with [IDM] the women of Jerusalem who prophesy things that they themselves have imagined.
18 E dize: Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Ai das que cozem almofadas para todos os sovacos, e que fazem travesseiros para cabeças de toda a estatua, para caçarem as almas! porventura caçareis as almas do meu povo? e as almas guardareis em vida para vós?
Tell them, “This is what Yahweh the Lord says: Terrible things will happen to you women who fasten magic charms on your wrists and make veils of various sizes to put on your heads in order to deceive the people. [You think that] [RHQ] you will deceive [by telling them that you know what will happen in the future], and that you will save your own lives.
19 E me profanareis para com o meu povo, por punhados de cevada, e por pedaços de pão, para matardes as almas que não haviam de morrer, e para guardardes em vida as almas que não haviam de viver, mentindo assim ao meu povo que escuta a mentira?
You dishonored [by telling lies] in order to get from my people a few handfuls of barley and a few pieces of bread. My people listen to lies; and you women who are lying to them have caused to be killed people who did not deserve to die and have (spared/allowed to remain alive) those who should not continue to live.”
20 Portanto assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Eis ahi vou eu contra as vossas almofadas, com que vós ali caçaes as almas nos jardins, e as arrancarei de vossos braços, e soltarei as almas que vós caçaes, as almas nos jardins.
Therefore, this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, [to those women]: “I detest your magic charms by which you deceive people like [SIM] [people trap] birds. I will tear those charms off your wrists, and I will cause the people whom you have deceived to no longer be deceived by you.
21 E rasgarei os vossos toucadores, e livrarei o meu povo das vossas mãos, e nunca mais estarão em vossas mãos para vossa caça; e sabereis que eu sou o Senhor.
I will also tear off your veils and rescue my people from continuing to be deceived by you, and they will no longer be under your control. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
22 Porquanto entristecestes o coração do justo com falsidade, não o havendo eu entristecido; e porquanto esforçastes as mãos do impio, para que não se desviasse do seu mau caminho, para guardal-o em vida;
You have discouraged righteous people by telling them lies when I did not [do things to] cause them to be sad. And you have encouraged wicked people to not turn away from their wicked behavior; if they had done that, they would have continued to remain alive.
23 Portanto não vereis mais a vaidade, nem adivinhareis adivinhação; mas livrarei o meu povo das vossas mãos, e sabereis que eu sou o Senhor.
Therefore, you will no longer falsely say that you have seen visions or tell people what will happen in the future [in order to please them]. I will rescue my people from being deceived by you. And then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].” '”
