Jeremias 26
1 No principio do reinado de Joaquim, filho de Josias, rei de Judah, veiu esta palavra do Senhor, dizendo:
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, this word came from the Lord, saying:
2 Assim diz o Senhor: Põe-te no atrio da casa do Senhor e falla a todas as cidades de Judah, que veem a adorar na casa do Senhor, todas as palavras que te mandei que lhes fallasses; palavra nenhuma deixes:
“Thus says the Lord: Stand in the atrium of the house of the Lord, and speak to all the cities of Judah, from which they come to adore in the house of the Lord, all the words that I have commanded you to speak to them. Do not choose to subtract any word.
3 Bem pode ser que ouçam, e se convertam cada um do seu mau caminho, e eu me arrependa do mal que intento fazer-lhes por causa da maldade das suas acções.
So may they hear and be converted, each one from his evil way. And then I may repent of the evil that I plan to do to them because of the wickedness of their pursuits.
4 Dize-lhes pois: Assim diz o Senhor: Se-não me derdes ouvidos para andardes na minha lei, a qual tenho posto diante de vós,
And you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord: If you will not listen to me, so that you walk in my law, which I have given to you,
5 Para que ouvisseis as palavras dos meus servos, os prophetas, que eu vos envio, madrugando e enviando, mas não ouvistes;
so that you listen to the words of my servants, the prophets, whom I have sent to you, who arise while it is still night, and though they give guidance, you do not listen,
6 Então farei que esta casa seja como Silo, e farei d'esta cidade uma maldição para todas as nações da terra.
then I will make this house like Shiloh, and I will make this city into a curse for all the nations of the earth.”
7 E ouviram os sacerdotes, e os prophetas, e todo o povo, a Jeremias, fallando estas palavras na casa do Senhor.
And the priests, and the prophets, and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the Lord.
8 E succedeu que, acabando Jeremias de dizer tudo quanto o Senhor lhe havia ordenado que dissesse a todo o povo, pegaram n'elle os sacerdotes, e os prophetas, e todo o povo, dizendo: Certamente morrerás,
And when Jeremiah had completed speaking all that the Lord had instructed him to speak to all the people, then the priests, and the prophets, and all the people apprehended him, saying: “You shall be put to death.”
9 Porque prophetizaste no nome do Senhor, dizendo: Como Silo será esta casa, e esta cidade será assolada, de sorte que não haja morador n'ella. E ajuntou-se todo o povo contra Jeremias, na casa do Senhor.
“Why has he prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying: ‘Like Shiloh, so shall this house be,’ and, ‘This city shall be made desolate, even without an inhabitant?’” And all the people were gathered together against Jeremiah in the house of the Lord.
10 E, ouvindo os principes de Judah estas palavras, subiram da casa do rei á casa do Senhor, e se assentaram á entrada da porta nova do Senhor.
And the leaders of Judah heard these words. And they ascended from the house of the king to the house of the Lord, and they sat at the entrance by the new gate of the house of the Lord.
11 Então fallaram os sacerdotes e os prophetas aos principes e a todo o povo, dizendo: Este homem é réu de morte, porque prophetizou contra esta cidade, como o ouvistes com os vossos ouvidos.
And the priests and the prophets spoke to the leaders and to all the people, saying: “A judgment of death is for this man. For he has prophesied against this city, just as you have heard with your own ears.”
12 E fallou Jeremias a todos os principes a todo o povo, dizendo: O Senhor me enviou a prophetizar contra esta casa, e contra esta cidade, todas as palavras que ouvistes.
And Jeremiah spoke to all the leaders and to the entire people, saying: “The Lord has sent me to prophesy, about this house and about this city, all the words that you have heard.
13 Agora, pois, melhorae os vossos caminhos e as vossas acções, e ouvi a voz do Senhor vosso Deus, e arrepender-se-ha o Senhor do mal que fallou contra vós.
Now, therefore, make your ways and your intentions good, and heed the voice of the Lord your God. And then the Lord will repent of the evil that he has spoken against you.
14 Eu, porém, eis que estou nas vossas mãos, fazei de mim conforme o que fôr bom e recto aos vossos olhos.
But as for me, behold, I am in your hands. Do to me what is good and right in your eyes.
15 Porém sabei por certo que, se me matardes a mim, trareis sangue innocente sobre vós, e sobre esta cidade, e sobre os seus habitantes: porque, na verdade, o Senhor me enviou a vós, a fallar aos vossos ouvidos todas estas palavras.
Yet truly, know and understand this: if you kill me, you will be bringing innocent blood against yourselves, and against this city and its inhabitants. For in truth, the Lord sent me to you, so as to speak all these words in your hearing.”
16 Então disseram os principes, e todo o povo, aos sacerdotes e aos prophetas: Não é este homem réu de morte, porque em nome do Senhor, nosso Deus, nos fallou.
And then the leaders and all the people said to the priests and to the prophets: “There is no judgment of death against this man. For he has spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.”
17 Tambem se levantaram alguns homens d'entre os anciãos da terra, e fallaram a toda a congregação do povo, dizendo:
Then some of the elders of the land rose up. And they spoke to the entire assembly of the people, saying:
18 Micaias, o morashita, prophetizou nos dias de Ezequias, rei de Judah, e fallou a todo o povo de Judah, dizendo: Assim disse o Senhor dos exercitos: Sião será lavrada como um campo, e Jerusalem será montões de pedras, e o monte d'esta casa altos de matto.
“Micah from Moresheth was a prophet in the days of Hezekiah, the king of Judah, and he spoke to all the people of Judah, saying: ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: Zion will be ploughed like a field. And Jerusalem will be a pile of stones. And the mountain of the house will be like the forests of high places.’
19 Porventura logo o mataram, Ezequias, rei de Judah, e todo o Judah? Porventura não temeu ao Senhor, e o não supplicou á face do Senhor? e o Senhor se arrepende do mal que fallara contra elles: e nós fazemos um grande mal contra as nossas almas.
Did the king of Judah, Hezekiah, with all of Judah, condemn him to death? Did they not fear the Lord, and petition the face of the Lord? And so the Lord repented of the evil that he had spoken against them. Therefore, we are committing a great evil against our own souls.
20 Tambem houve um homem que prophetizava em nome do Senhor, a saber: Urias, filho de Semaia, de Kiriath-jearim, o qual prophetizou contra esta cidade, e contra esta terra, conforme todas as palavras de Jeremias.
Likewise, there was a man prophesying in the name of the Lord: Uriah, the son of Shemaiah, of Kiriath-jearim. And he prophesied against this city and against this land, in accord with all the words of Jeremiah.
21 E, ouvindo o rei Joaquim, e todos os seus valentes, e todos os principes, as suas palavras, procurou o rei matal-o; o que ouvindo Urias, temeu, e fugiu, e foi para o Egypto;
And king Jehoiakim, with all his warriors and leaders, heard these words. And so the king sought to put him to death. And Uriah heard, and was afraid, and fled, and he entered into Egypt.
22 Porém o rei Joaquim enviou uns homens ao Egypto, a saber, Elnathan, filho de Achbor, e outros homens com elle ao Egypto,
And king Jehoiakim sent men into Egypt: Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and the men who went with him into Egypt.
23 Os quaes tiraram a Urias do Egypto, e o trouxeram ao rei Joaquim, que o feriu á espada, e lançou o seu cadaver nas sepulturas dos filhos do povo.
And they led Uriah out of Egypt. And they brought him to king Jehoiakim, and he struck him down with the sword. And he cast his dead body among the graves of the common people.”
24 A mão pois de Ahicam, filho de Saphan, foi com Jeremias, para que o não entregassem na mão do povo, para o matar.
But the hand of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, was with Jeremiah, so that he would not be delivered into the hands of the people, and so that they would not put him to death.
