Jeremias 19
1 Assim diz o Senhor: Vae, e compra uma botija de oleiro, e toma comtigo dos anciãos do povo e dos anciãos dos sacerdotes;
Thus said YHWH: “Go, and you have acquired a potter’s earthen vessel, and from [the] elderly of the people, and from [the] elderly of the priests,
2 E sae ao valle do filho d'Hinnom, que está á entrada da porta do sol, e apregoa ali as palavras que eu te disser.
and you have gone forth to the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, that [is] at the opening of the gate of the pottery, and have proclaimed there the words that I speak to you,
3 E dize: Ouvi a palavra do Senhor, ó reis de Judah, e moradores de Jerusalem: assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, o Deus d'Israel: Eis que trarei um mal sobre este logar, que quem quer que ouvir retinir-lhe-hão as orelhas:
and have said, Hear a word of YHWH, you kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem!” Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: “Behold, I am bringing in evil on this place, at which the ears of everyone who is hearing it tingles,
4 Porquanto me deixaram e alienaram este lugar, e n'elle queimaram incenso a outros deuses, que nunca conheceram, nem elles nem seus paes, nem os reis de Judah; e encheram este logar de sangue de innocentes.
because that they have forsaken Me, and make known this place, and make incense in it to other gods, that they did not know, they and their fathers, and the kings of Judah, and they have filled this place [with] innocent blood,
5 Porque edificaram os altos de Baal, para queimarem seus filhos no fogo em holocaustos a Baal; o que nunca lhes ordenei, nem fallei, nem subiu ao meu coração.
and have built the high places of Ba‘al to burn their sons with fire, burnt-offerings to Ba‘al, that I did not command, nor spoke of, nor did it come up on My heart.
6 Por isso eis que dias veem, diz o Senhor, em que este logar não se chamará mais Topheth, nem o valle do filho de Hinnom, mas o valle da matança.
Therefore, behold, days are coming,” a declaration of YHWH, “and this place is no longer called The Tophet and Valley of the Son of Hinnom, but Valley of the Slaughter.
7 Porque dissiparei o conselho de Judah e de Jerusalem n'este logar, e os farei cair á espada diante de seus inimigos, e pela mão dos que buscam a sua vida d'elles; e darei os seus cadaveres para pasto ás aves dos céus e aos animaes da terra.
And I have made void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place, and have caused them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those seeking their life, and I have given their carcass for food to the bird of the heavens, and to the beast of the earth,
8 E porei esta cidade em espanto e por assobio: todo aquelle que passar por ella se espantará, e assobiará sobre todas as suas pragas.
and I have made this city for a desolation, and for a hissing, everyone passing by it is astonished, and hisses for all its plagues.
9 E os farei comer a carne de seus filhos, e a carne de suas filhas, e comerá cada um a carne do seu proximo, no cerco e no aperto em que os apertarão os seus inimigos, e os que buscam a vida d'elles.
And I have caused them to eat the flesh of their sons, and the flesh of their daughters, and they each eat the flesh of his friend, in the siege and in the constriction with which their enemies constrict them, and those seeking their life.”
10 Então quebrarás a botija aos olhos dos homens que forem comtigo.
“And you have broken the bottle before the eyes of the men who are going with you,
11 E dir-lhes-has: Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos: Assim quebrarei eu a este povo, e a esta cidade, como se quebra o vaso do oleiro, que não póde mais refazer-se, e os enterrarão em Topheth, porque não haverá mais logar para os enterrar.
and have said to them, Thus said YHWH of Hosts: Thus I break this people and this city, as one breaks the potter’s vessel, that is not able to be repaired again, and in Tophet they bury—without place to bury;
12 Assim farei a este logar, diz o Senhor, e aos seus moradores; e isso para pôr a esta cidade como a Topheth.
so I do to this place—a declaration of YHWH—and to its inhabitants, so as to make this city as Tophet;
13 E as casas de Jerusalem, e as casas dos reis de Judah, serão immundas como o logar de Topheth: como tambem todas as casas, sobre cujos terraços queimaram incenso a todo o exercito dos céus, e offereceram libações a deuses estranhos.
and the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, have been as the place of Tophet—defiled, even all the houses on whose roofs they have made incense to all the host of the heavens, so as to pour out oblations to other gods.”
14 Vindo pois Jeremias de Topheth, onde o tinha enviado o Senhor a prophetizar, se poz em pé no atrio da casa do Senhor, e disse a todo o povo:
And Jeremiah comes in from Tophet, to where YHWH had sent him to prophesy, and he stands in the court of the house of YHWH, and he says to all the people:
15 Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, o Deus de Israel: Eis que trarei sobre esta cidade, e sobre todas as suas cidades, todo o mal que fallei contra ella, porquanto endureceram a sua cerviz, para não ouvirem as minhas palavras.
“Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Behold, I am bringing to this city, and on all its cities, all the calamity that I have spoken against it, for they have hardened their neck to not hear My words!”
