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;
The Commander of the armies of angels is about to take away from Jerusalem and [other places in] Judea everything that you depend on— all your food and water.
2 Ao valente, e ao soldado, ao juiz, e ao propheta, e ao adivinho, e ao ancião,
He will take away your heroes and your [other] soldiers, your judges and your prophets, people who do rituals to find out what will happen in the future and the elders,
3 Ao capitão de cincoenta, e ao respeitavel, e ao conselheiro, e ao sabio entre os artifices, e ao eloquente.
army officers and [other] officials, advisors and skilled craftsmen and those who perform rituals to predict the future.
4 E dar-lhes-hei mancebos por principes, e creanças dominarão sobre elles.
He will appoint boys to be your leaders; your children will rule you.
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.
People will treat each other cruelly: people will fight against their neighbors. Young people will insult older people, and vulgar/dishonorable people will sneer at people who should be honored.
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;
At that time, someone will grab one of his brothers in his father’s house and say to him, “You have a coat, [which shows that you are respected]. [So] you be our leader! You rule this [city, which is now] a pile of ruins!”
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.
[But] his brother will reply, “[No], I cannot help you, [because] I do not have [any extra] food or clothes in this house. [So] do not appoint me to be your leader!”
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.
Jerusalem and [the other towns in] Judah will be destroyed, because [everything] that the people do and say there opposes Yahweh, who is powerful and glorious, and they refuse to obey him. They rebel against him.
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.
They even show on their faces that [they oppose Yahweh]. They are proud of their sins, like [the people of] Sodom were [long ago]; they do not try to hide their sins. [Because of their sins], terrible things will happen to them, [but] they will bring those disasters on themselves.
10 Dizem ao justo que bem lhe irá; que comerão do fructo das suas obras.
[Yahweh told me to] tell the righteous people that good things will happen to them; they will enjoy the blessings that they will receive for their good deeds.
11 Ai do impio! mal lhe irá: porque o galardão das suas mãos se lhe dará.
[But] terrible things will happen to wicked people; they will be (paid back/punished) for [the evil things that] [MTY] they have done.
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.
[Now], youths [who have become leaders] treat my people cruelly, and women rule over my people. My people, your leaders are misleading you; they are causing you to go down the wrong road [MET].
13 O Senhor se apresenta a pleitear, e se põe a julgar os povos.
[It is as though] Yahweh has sat in his place in a courtroom and is ready to judge his 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.
He will stand up to declare why the elders and rulers of his people should be punished: [he says], “The people of Israel are [like] [MET] a vineyard that I planted, but you have ruined it! Your houses are full of things that you have stolen from poor people.
15 Que tendes vós, que atropellaes o meu povo e moeis as faces dos afflictos? diz o Senhor, o Deus dos Exercitos.
You should stop [RHQ] crushing my people! [It is as though] you are pushing the faces of poor people into the dirt!” [That is what] the Commander of the armies of angels says.
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
Yahweh says this: “The women of Jerusalem are haughty/proud; they walk around sticking their chins out, and flirting [with men] with their eyes. They walk with tiny steps with bracelets on their ankles that jingle.
17 Portanto o Senhor fará calva a mioleira das filhas de Sião, e o Senhor descobrirá as suas vergonhas.
So I, Yahweh, will cause sores to be on their heads, and I will cause those beautiful women in Jerusalem to become bald.”
18 N'aquelle dia tirará o Senhor o enfeite das ligas, e as redezinhas, e as luetas,
At the time [that Yahweh does that], he will strip away everything that the women of Jerusalem wear to make themselves beautiful—the ornaments on their ankles and their headbands, their crescent necklaces,
19 Os pendentes, e as manilhas, e os vestidos resplandecentes,
their earrings and bracelets and veils,
20 Os diademas, e os enfeites dos braços, e os cendaes, e as bocetas cheirosas, e as arrecadas,
their scarves and ankle bracelets and sashes, their perfumes and (charms/little things that they wear thinking that those things will protect them from evil),
21 Os anneis, e as joias pendentes do nariz,
their signet rings and nose rings,
22 Os vestidos de festa, e os mantos, e as coifas, e os alfinetes,
their nice robes and capes and cloaks and purses,
23 Os espelhos, e as capinhas de linho finissimas, e as toucas, e os véus.
their mirrors and nice linen clothes and shawls.
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.
Instead of their having a nice smell from perfume, they will stink; instead of nice sashes, they will have ropes [around their waists because they will be captives]. Instead of having fancy hairdos, they will be bald. Instead of fancy/beautiful robes, they will wear rough sackcloth, and instead of being beautiful, they will be branded.
25 Teus varões cairão á espada, e teus valentes na peleja.
Their husbands will be killed by [their enemies’] swords, and their soldiers [will also die] in battles.
26 E as suas portas gemerão e prantearão; e ella, ficando desolada, se assentará no chão.
People [PRS] will mourn and cry at the gates [of the city]. The city will [be like] [MET] a woman who sits on the ground because everything that she owned is gone.
