< Isaías 37 >
1 E aconteceu que, tendo-o ouvido o rei Ezequias, rasgou os seus vestidos, e se cobriu de sacco, e entrou na casa do Senhor.
When king Hezekiah sh'ma ·heard obeyed· it, he tore his clothes, covered himself with sackcloth, and went into Adonai’s house.
2 Então enviou a Eliakim, o mordomo, e a Sebna, o escrivão, e aos anciãos dos sacerdotes, cobertos de saccos, a Isaias, filho d'Amós, o propheta.
He sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah [Salvation of Yah] the prophet, the son of Amoz.
3 E disseram-lhe: Assim diz Ezequias: Este dia é dia d'angustia e de vituperação, e de blasphemias; porque chegados são os filhos ao parto, e força não ha para parir
They said to him, “Thus says Hezekiah, ‘Today is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of rejection; for the children have come to the birth, and there is no strength to give birth.
4 Porventura o Senhor teu Deus ouvirá as palavras de Rabsaké, a quem enviou o seu senhor, o rei da Assyria, para affrontar o Deus vivo, e para vituperal-o com as palavras que o Senhor teu Deus tem ouvido: faze oração pelo resto que ainda se acha.
It may be Adonai your God will sh'ma ·hear obey· the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria [Level plain] his master has sent to defy the Elohim Chayim [Living God], and will rebuke the words which Adonai your God has sh'ma ·heard obeyed·. Therefore lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left.’”
5 E os servos do rei Ezequias vieram a Isaias.
So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah [Salvation of Yah].
6 E Isaias lhes disse: Assim direis a vosso senhor: Assim diz o Senhor: Não temas á vista das palavras que ouviste, com as quaes os servos do rei da Assyria me blasphemaram.
Isaiah [Salvation of Yah] said to them, “Tell your master, ‘Adonai says, “Don’t be afraid of the words that you have sh'ma ·heard obeyed·, with which the servants of the king of Assyria [Level plain] have blasphemed me.
7 Eis que metterei n'elle um espirito, e elle ouvirá um arroido, e voltará para a sua terra; e fal-o-hei cair morto á espada na sua terra.
Behold, I will put a spirit in him and he will sh'ma ·hear obey· news, and will teshuvah ·completely return· to his own land. I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.”’”
8 Voltou pois Rabsaké, e achou ao rei da Assyria pelejando contra Libna; porque ouvira que já se havia retirado de Lachis.
So Rabshakeh make teshuvah ·complete return·, and found the king of Assyria [Level plain] warring against Libnah, for he had sh'ma ·heard obeyed· that he was departed from Lachish.
9 E, ouvindo elle dizer que Tirhaká, rei da Ethiopia, tinha saido para lhe fazer guerra, assim como o ouviu, tornou a enviar mensageiros a Ezequias, dizendo:
He sh'ma ·heard obeyed· news concerning Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, “He has come out to fight against you.” When he sh'ma ·heard obeyed· it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,
10 Assim fallareis a Ezequias, rei de Judah, dizendo: Não te engane o teu Deus, em quem confias, dizendo: Jerusalem não será entregue na mão do rei da Assyria.
“Thus you shall speak to Hezekiah king of Judah [Praised], saying, ‘Don’t let your God in whom you trust deceive you, saying, “Jerusalem [City of peace] won’t be given into the hand of the king of Assyria [Level plain].”
11 Eis que já tens ouvido o que fizeram os reis da Assyria a todas as terras, destruindo-as totalmente: e escaparias tu?
Behold, you have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· what the kings of Assyria [Level plain] have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly. Shall you be delivered?
12 Porventura as livraram os deuses das nações ás quaes meus paes destruiram, como a Gozan, e a Haran, e a Reseph, e aos filhos d'Eden, que estavam em Telassar?
Have the deities of the nations delivered them, which my fathers have destroyed, Gozan, Haran [Mountaineer], Rezeph, and the children of Eden who were in Telassar?
13 Onde está o rei d'Hamath, e o rei d'Arpad, e o rei da cidade de Sepharvaim, Hena e Iva?
Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah?’”
14 Recebendo pois Ezequias as cartas das mãos dos mensageiros, e lendo-as, subiu á casa do Senhor e Ezequias as estendeu perante o Senhor.
Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers and read it. Then Hezekiah went up to Adonai’s house, and spread it before Adonai.
15 E orou Ezequias ao Senhor, dizendo:
Hezekiah prayed to Adonai, saying,
16 Ó Senhor dos Exercitos, Deus d'Israel, que habitas entre os cherubins; tu mesmo, só tu és Deus de todos os reinos da terra; tu fizeste os céus e a terra.
“Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], the God of Israel [God prevails], who is enthroned among the cherubim, you are the God, even you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.
17 Inclina, ó Senhor, o teu ouvido, e ouve: abre, Senhor, os teus olhos, e olha; e ouve todas as palavras de Senacherib, o qual enviou para affrontar o Deus vivo.
Turn your ear, Adonai, and sh'ma ·hear obey·. Open your eyes, Adonai, and behold. Sh'ma ·Hear obey· all of the words of Sennacherib, who has sent to defy the Elohim Chayim [Living God].
18 Verdade é, Senhor, que os reis da Assyria assolaram todas as terras, com as suas comarcas,
Truly, Adonai, the kings of Assyria [Level plain] have destroyed all the countries and their land,
19 E lançaram no fogo os seus deuses; porque deuses não eram, senão obra de mãos d'homens, madeira e pedra; por isso os destruiram.
and have cast their deities into the fire; for they were no elohim ·deities, judges·, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone; therefore they have destroyed them.
20 Agora pois, ó Senhor nosso Deus, livra-nos da sua mão; e assim saberão todos os reinos da terra, que só tu és o Senhor.
Now therefore, Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God], save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you are Adonai, even you only.”
21 Então Isaias, filho d'Amós, mandou dizer a Ezequias: Assim diz o Senhor, o Deus d'Israel: Quanto ao que me pediste ácerca de Senacherib, rei da Assyria,
Then Isaiah [Salvation of Yah] the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, “Yahweh, Elohim Isra'el [He sustains breathing, God of God prevails] says, ‘Because you have prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria [Level plain],
22 Esta é a palavra que o Senhor fallou d'elle: A virgem, a filha de Sião, te despreza, de ti zomba; a filha de Jerusalem menea a cabeça por detraz de ti
this is the word which Adonai has spoken concerning him. The virgin daughter of Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking] has despised you and ridiculed you. The daughter of Jerusalem [City of peace] has shaken her head at you.
23 A quem affrontaste e blasphemaste? e contra quem alçaste a voz, e ergueste os teus olhos ao alto? Contra o Sancto d'Israel.
Whom have you defied and blasphemed? Against whom have you exalted your voice and lifted up your eyes on high? Against haKadosh Isra'el [the Holy One of God prevails].
24 Por meio de teus servos affrontaste o Senhor, e disseste: Com a multidão dos meus carros subi eu aos cumes dos montes, aos lados do Libano; e cortarei os seus altos cedros e as suas faias escolhidas, e entrarei na altura do seu cume, ao bosque do seu campo fertil.
By your servants, have you defied 'Adonay [Lord], and have said, “With the multitude of my chariots I have come up to the height of the mountains, to the innermost parts of Lebanon. I will cut down its tall cedars and its choice cypress trees. I will enter into its farthest height, the forest of its fruitful field.
25 Eu cavei, e bebi as aguas; e com as plantas de meus pés sequei todos os rios do Egypto.
I have dug and drunk water, and with the sole of my feet I will dry up all the rivers of Egypt [Abode of slavery].”
26 Porventura não ouviste que já muito d'antes eu fiz isto, e já desde os dias antigos o formei? agora porém o fiz vir, para que tu fosses o que destruisses as cidades fortes, e as reduzisses a montões assolados.
Have you not sh'ma ·heard obeyed· how I have done it long ago, and formed it in ancient times? Now I have brought it to pass, that it should be yours to destroy fortified cities, turning them into ruinous heaps.
27 Por isso os seus moradores, com as mãos caidas, andaram atemorisados e envergonhados: eram como a herva do campo, e a hortaliça verde, e o feno dos telhados, e o trigo queimado antes da seara.
Therefore their inhabitants had little power. They were dismayed and confounded. They were like the grass of the field, and like the green herb, like the grass on the housetops, and like a field before its crop has grown.
28 Porém eu sei o teu assentar, e o teu sair, e o teu entrar, e o teu furor contra mim.
But I know your sitting down, your going out, your coming in, and your raging against me.
29 Por causa do teu furor contra mim, e porque o teu tumulto subiu até aos meus ouvidos, portanto porei o meu anzol no seu nariz e o meu freio nos teus beiços, e te farei voltar pelo caminho por onde vieste.
Because of your raging against me, and because your arrogance has come up into my ears, therefore will I put my hook in your nose and my bridle in your lips, and I will turn you back by the way by which you came.
30 E isto te seja por signal, que este anno se comerá o que de si mesmo nascer, e no segundo anno o que d'ahi proceder: porém no terceiro anno semeae e segae, e plantae vinhas, e comei os fructos d'ellas.
This shall be the sign to you. You will eat this year that which grows of itself, and in the second year that which springs from the same; and in the third year sow and reap and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
31 Porque o que escapou da casa de Judah, e ficou de resto, tornará a lançar raizes para baixo, e dará fructo para cima.
The remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah [Praised] will again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.
32 Porque de Jerusalem sairá o restante, e do monte de Sião o que escapou: o zelo do Senhor dos Exercitos fará isto.
For out of Jerusalem [City of peace] a remnant will go out, and survivors will escape from Mount Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking]. The zeal of Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] will perform this.’
33 Pelo que assim diz o Senhor ácerca do rei da Assyria: Não entrará n'esta cidade, nem lançará n'ella frecha alguma: tão pouco virá perante ella com escudo, nem levantará contra ella tranqueira alguma.
Therefore Adonai says concerning the king of Assyria [Level plain], ‘He will not come to this city, nor shoot an arrow there, neither will he come before it with shield, nor cast up a mound against it.
34 Pelo caminho por onde vier, por esse voltará; porém n'esta cidade não entrará, diz o Senhor.
By the way that he came, by the same he shall teshuvah ·completely return·, and he shall not come to this city,’ says Adonai.
35 Porque eu ampararei a esta cidade, para a livrar, por amor de mim e por amor do meu servo David.
‘For I will defend this city to save it, for my own sake, and for my servant David [Beloved]’s sake.’”
36 Então saiu o anjo do Senhor, e feriu no arraial dos assyrios a cento e oitenta e cinco mil d'elles; e, levantando-se pela manhã cedo, eis que tudo eram corpos mortos.
Ha mal'ak Yahweh [The Angel of He sustains breathing] went out and struck one hundred and eighty-five thousand men in the camp of the Assyrians. When men arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies.
37 Assim Senacherib, rei da Assyria, se retirou, e se foi, e voltou, e se ficou em Ninive.
So Sennacherib king of Assyria [Level plain] departed, went away, teshuvah ·completely returned· to Nineveh [Offspring’s Habitation], and stayed there.
38 E succedeu que, estando elle prostrado na casa de Nisroch, seu deus, Adramelech e Sarezer, seus filhos, o feriram á espada; porém elles se escaparam para a terra d'Ararat, e Esarhaddon, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
As he was worshiping in the house of Nisroch his deity, Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons struck him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. Esar Haddon his son reigned in his place.
