Isaías 54
1 Canta alegremente, ó esteril, que não parias: exclama de prazer com alegre canto, e exulta, tu que não tiveste dôres de parto; porque mais são os filhos da solitaria, do que os filhos da casada, diz o Senhor.
Yahweh says, “You [people of Jerusalem] [MET], start to sing! You [who are like] [MET] women who have never given birth to children, sing loudly and shout joyfully, because you, [who are like] [MET] childless women who have been abandoned [by their husbands], will [soon] have more children than women who have never had any children.
2 Alarga o logar da tua tenda, e as cortinas das tuas habitações se estendam; não o impeças: alonga as tuas cordas, e affixa bem as tuas estacas.
Make your tents larger; make them wider, and fasten them firmly with tent pegs.
3 Porque trasbordarás á mão direita e á esquerda; e a tua semente possuirá as nações e farão habitar as cidades assoladas.
[You will need to make your city much larger] because [soon] you and your descendants will spread all over the land. They will force the people of [other] nations [who now live in your cities] to leave, and you will live [again] in those cities [that were previously abandoned].
4 Não temas, porque não serás envergonhada; e não te envergonhes, porque não serás confundida: antes te esquecerás da vergonha da tua mocidade, e não te lembrarás mais do opprobrio da tua viuvez.
Do not be afraid; you will no [longer] be ashamed. Previously you were ashamed [because your enemies conquered you] and caused many of your women to become widows, but [soon] you will not even remember that.
5 Porque o teu Creador é o teu marido, o Senhor dos Exercitos é o seu nome; e o Sancto de Israel é o teu Redemptor; será chamado o Deus de toda a terra.
[I], the Commander of the armies of angels, the Holy one of Israel, who rules over the whole earth, the one who created you, will be [like] [MET] a husband to you.
6 Porque o Senhor te chamou como a mulher desamparada, e triste de espirito: comtudo tu és a mulher da mocidade, ainda que foste desprezada, diz o teu Deus.
You were like a woman whose husband left her, and caused you to be very sad; you were like a young woman who got married when she was [very] young, and then her husband abandoned her.
7 Por um pequeno momento te deixei, porém com grandes misericordias te recolherei;
I abandoned you [people of Jerusalem] for a while, but [now] I am saying, ‘I will take you back.’
8 Com uma pouca de ira escondi a minha face de ti por um momento; porém com benignidade eterna me compadecerei de ti, diz o Senhor, o teu Redemptor.
I was very angry with you for a while, and I turned away from you. But I will act mercifully toward you and I will faithfully love you forever. That is what [I], Yahweh, your protector, say to you.
9 Porque isto será para mim como as aguas de Noé, quando jurei que as aguas de Noé não passariam mais sobre a terra: assim jurei que não me irarei mais contra ti, nem te reprehenderei.
During the time that Noah lived, I solemnly promised that I would never again allow a flood to cover the earth. So [now] I solemnly promise that I will not be angry with you again and (rebuke you/threaten to punish you).
10 Porque os montes se desviarão, e os outeiros tremerão; porém a minha benignidade se não desviará de ti, e o concerto da minha paz se não mudará, diz o Senhor, que se compadece de ti.
Even if the mountains and hills shake and collapse, I will not stop faithfully loving you, and I will not cancel my agreement to cause things to go well for you. That is what [I], Yahweh, who act mercifully, say.
11 Tu, opprimida, arrojada com a tormenta e desconsolada, eis que eu porei as tuas pedras com todo o ornamento, e te fundarei sobre as safiras.
You [people of Jerusalem] [APO], [your enemies acted very violently toward you]; [it was as though] your city was battered by a severe storm, and no one helped you. But [now] I will cause your city to be rebuilt with stones made of (turquoise/valuable stones), and I will cause the foundations of the city to be made of (sapphires/valuable blue stones).
12 E as tuas janellas farei crystallinas, e as tuas portas de rubins, e todos os teus termos de pedras apraziveis.
I will cause the towers on the city wall to be made of (rubies/valuable red stones), and all the gates of the city will be made of [other] very valuable stones.
13 E todos os teus filhos serão doutrinados do Senhor; e a paz de teus filhos será abundante.
I will be the one who will teach you people and cause things to go well with you.
14 Com justiça serás confirmada: alonga-te da oppressão, porque já não temerás; como tambem do espanto, porque não chegará a ti.
Your [government] will be strong because of acting justly/fairly; no one will (oppress you/cause you to suffer); you will not be afraid, because there will be nothing [PRS] that will (terrorize you/cause you to become extremely afraid).
15 Eis que certamente se ajuntarão contra ti, porém não comigo: quem se ajuntar contra ti cairá por amor de ti.
If any army attacks you, it will not be because I have incited them to do that, and you will defeat any group that attacks you.
16 Eis que eu creei o ferreiro, que assopra as brazas no fogo, e que produz a ferramenta para a sua obra: tambem eu creei o destruidor, para desfazer.
Think about this: (Blacksmiths/Men who make things from metal) fan the coals to make a very hot flame in order to produce weapons that can be used [in battles], but I am the one who has produced blacksmiths! And I am also the one who created people who destroy [other people and cities].
17 Toda a ferramenta preparada contra ti não prosperará, e toda a lingua que se levantar contra ti em juizo tu a condemnarás: esta é a herança dos servos do Senhor, e a sua justiça vem de mim, diz o Senhor.
[But I am promising you that I will] not allow you to be defeated/injured by soldiers using weapons that have been made to attack you, and when others try to accuse you, you will (refute them/show that they are wrong). That is the reward that I will give to the people who serve me; I will defend them; that is what [I], Yahweh, promise.”
