< Isaías 3 >

1 Porque, eis que o Senhor Deus dos Exercitos tirará de Jerusalem e de Judah o bordão e o cajado: a todo o sustento de pão, e a toda a borda d'agua;
For behold, the sovereign Lord of hosts will take away, from Jerusalem and from Judah, the powerful and the strong: all the strength from bread, and all the strength from water;
2 Ao valente, e ao soldado, ao juiz, e ao propheta, e ao adivinho, e ao ancião,
the strong man, and the man of war, the judge and the prophet, and the seer and the elder;
3 Ao capitão de cincoenta, e ao respeitavel, e ao conselheiro, e ao sabio entre os artifices, e ao eloquente.
the leader over fifty and the honorable in appearance; and the counselor, and the wise among builders, and the skillful in mystical speech.
4 E dar-lhes-hei mancebos por principes, e creanças dominarão sobre elles.
And I will provide children as their leaders, and the effeminate will rule over them.
5 E o povo será opprimido; um será contra o outro, e cada um contra o seu proximo: o menino se atreverá contra o ancião, e o vil contra o nobre.
And the people will rush, man against man, and each one against his neighbor. The child shall rebel against the elder, and the ignoble against the noble.
6 Quando algum travar de seu irmão da casa de seu pae, dizendo: Capa tens, sê nosso principe, e toma sob a tua mão esta ruina;
For a man will apprehend his brother, from the household of his own father, saying: “The vestment is yours. Be our leader, but let this ruin be under your hand.”
7 Então levantará a sua voz n'aquelle dia, dizendo: Não posso ser medico, nem tão pouco ha em minha casa pão, nem vestido algum: não me ponhaes por principe do povo.
In that day, he will respond by saying: “I am not a healer, and there is no bread or vestment in my house. Do not choose to appoint me as a leader of the people.”
8 Porque tropeçou Jerusalem, e Judah é caido; porquanto a sua lingua e as suas obras são contra o Senhor, para irritarem os olhos da sua gloria.
For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah has fallen, because their words and their plans are against the Lord, in order to provoke the eyes of his majesty.
9 A apparencia das suas faces testifica contra elles; e publicam os seus peccados como Sodoma; não os dissimulam: ai da sua alma! porque se fazem mal a si mesmos.
The acknowledgement of their countenance is their response. For they have proclaimed their own sin, like Sodom; and they have not concealed it. Woe to their souls! For evils are being repaid to them.
10 Dizem ao justo que bem lhe irá; que comerão do fructo das suas obras.
Tell the just man that it is well, for he shall eat from the fruit from his own plans.
11 Ai do impio! mal lhe irá: porque o galardão das suas mãos se lhe dará.
Woe to the impious man immersed in evil! For retribution will be given to him from his own hands.
12 Os exactores do meu povo são creanças, e mulheres dominam sobre elle: ah, povo meu! os que te guiam te enganam, e devoram o caminho das tuas veredas.
As for my people, their oppressors have despoiled them, and women have ruled over them. My people, who call you blessed, the same are deceiving you and disrupting the path of your steps.
13 O Senhor se apresenta a pleitear, e se põe a julgar os povos.
The Lord stands for judgment, and he stands to judge the people.
14 O Senhor vem em juizo contra os anciãos do seu povo, e contra os seus principes; porque vós consumistes esta vinha, o despojo do afflicto está em vossas casas.
The Lord will enter into judgment with the elders of his people, and with their leaders. For you have been devouring the vineyard, and the plunder from the poor is in your house.
15 Que tendes vós, que atropellaes o meu povo e moeis as faces dos afflictos? diz o Senhor, o Deus dos Exercitos.
Why do you wear down my people, and grind up the faces of the poor, says the Lord, the God of hosts?
16 Diz ainda mais o Senhor: Porquanto as filhas de Sião se exalçam, e andam com o pescoço emproado, fazendo acenos com os olhos, e, indo andando, andam como dançando, e cascavelando com os pés
And the Lord said: Because the daughters of Zion have been lifted up, and have walked with extended necks and winking eyes, because they have continued on, walking noisily and advancing with a pretentious stride,
17 Portanto o Senhor fará calva a mioleira das filhas de Sião, e o Senhor descobrirá as suas vergonhas.
the Lord will make the heads of the daughters of Zion bald, and the Lord will strip them of the locks of their hair.
18 N'aquelle dia tirará o Senhor o enfeite das ligas, e as redezinhas, e as luetas,
In that day, the Lord will take away their decorative shoes,
19 Os pendentes, e as manilhas, e os vestidos resplandecentes,
and the little moons and chains, and the necklaces and bracelets, and the hats,
20 Os diademas, e os enfeites dos braços, e os cendaes, e as bocetas cheirosas, e as arrecadas,
and the ornaments for their hair, and the anklets, and the touches of myrrh and little bottles of perfumes, and the earrings,
21 Os anneis, e as joias pendentes do nariz,
and the rings, and the jewels hanging on their foreheads,
22 Os vestidos de festa, e os mantos, e as coifas, e os alfinetes,
and the continual changes in appearance, and the short skirts, and the fine linens and embroidered cloths,
23 Os espelhos, e as capinhas de linho finissimas, e as toucas, e os véus.
and the mirrors, and scarves, and ribbons, and their sparse clothing.
24 E será que em logar de cheiro suave haverá fedor; e por cinto uma corda; e em logar d'encrespadura de cabellos, calva; e em logar de veste larga, cingimento de sacco; e queimadura em logar de formosura.
And in place of a sweet fragrance, there will be stench. And in place of a belt, there will be a rope. And in place of stylish hair, there will be baldness. And in place of a blouse, there will be haircloth.
25 Teus varões cairão á espada, e teus valentes na peleja.
Likewise, your most handsome men will fall by the sword, and your strong men will fall in battle.
26 E as suas portas gemerão e prantearão; e ella, ficando desolada, se assentará no chão.
And her gates will grieve and mourn. And she will sit on the ground, desolate.
