< Jeremias 30 >
1 A palavra que do Senhor veiu a Jeremias, dizendo:
Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
2 Assim diz o Senhor, Deus de Israel, dizendo: Escreve n'um livro todas as palavras que te tenho fallado.
“[I], Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli people [say they belong to], am telling you that you should write down everything that I have said to you.
3 Porque eis que dias veem, diz o Senhor, em que farei tornar o captiveiro do meu povo Israel e Judah, diz o Senhor; e tornal-os-hei a trazer á terra que dei a seus paes, e a possuirão.
[I want you to know that] some day I will free my people, [the people of] Israel and Judah, from being slaves [in Babylon]. I will bring them back to this land that I gave to their ancestors, and this land will belong to them again. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.”
4 E estas são as palavras que fallou o Senhor, ácerca de Israel e de Judah.
Yahweh gave [to me] another message concerning [the people of] Israel and Judah.
5 Porque assim diz o Senhor: Ouvimos uma voz de temor: temor ha, porém não paz.
This is what he said: “I hear people screaming because they are terrified [DOU]; there is no peace [in the land].
6 Perguntae, pois, e olhae, se o varão pare. Porque pois vejo a cada homem com as mãos sobre os lombos como a que está parindo? e porque se teem tornado todos os rostos em amarellidão?
But think about this: Men certainly do not [RHQ] give birth to babies. Therefore, why do strong men stand there, with their faces very white/pale, with their hands pressed against their stomachs, like women who are about to give birth to babies?
7 Ah! porque aquelle dia é tão grande, que não houve outro similhante! e é tempo de angustia para Jacob: porém será livrado d'ella.
[Terrible things will soon happen]; that will be a terrible day! There has never been such a time. It will be a time when [my] Israeli people will experience great trouble, but [finally] they will be saved [from their sufferings].”
8 Porque será n'aquelle dia, diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, que eu quebrarei o seu jugo de sobre o teu pescoço, e quebrarei as tuas ataduras; e nunca mais se servirão d'elle os estranhos.
The Commander of the armies of angels says this: “At that time [it will be as though] I will sever/cut the ropes [that are around my people], and I will free them from being (slaves/forced to do what the King of Babylon wants them to do) [MET]. People in other countries will no longer be their bosses.
9 Mas servirão ao Senhor, seu Deus, como tambem a David, seu rei, que lhes levantarei.
My people will [again] serve me, Yahweh, their God, and [they will serve a king who is a descendant of] King David; [they will serve the king] whom I will appoint for them.
10 Não temas pois tu, servo meu Jacob, diz o Senhor, nem te espantes, ó Israel; porque eis que te livrarei de terras de longe, como tambem á tua semente da terra do seu captiveiro; e Jacob tornará, e descançará, e ficará em socego, e não haverá quem o atemorize.
So, [you people of] Israel who serve me, do not be dismayed/worried [now], because [some day] I will bring you back from distant places; I will bring your descendants [back home] from the land to which they were exiled. [Then you] Israeli people will [again] live peacefully and safely, and there will not be any [nation] that will cause you to be terrified.
11 Porque eu sou comtigo, diz o Senhor, para te livrar; porquanto farei consummação de todas as nações entre as quaes te espalhei; porém de ti não farei consummação, mas castigar-te-hei com medida, e de todo não te terei por innocente.
I, Yahweh, say that I will be with you and will rescue you; I will completely destroy the nations to which I have scattered you. But I will not completely destroy you. I will punish you [for your many sins], but I will punish you [only] as severely as you deserve: I would be doing wrong if I did not punish you at all.”
12 Porque assim diz o Senhor: Teu quebrantamento é mortal; a tua chaga é dolorosa.
Yahweh [also] says this: “[You have (suffered very much/endured many disasters)]; [it is as though] you have a terrible wound that cannot be cured.
13 Não ha quem julgue a tua causa para ligal-a; não tens remedios que possam curar.
There is no one to help you, no one to put a bandage on your wound. There is no [medicine that will] heal you.
14 Todos os teus amantes já se esqueceram de ti, e não perguntam por ti; porque te feri de ferida de inimigo, e de castigo do cruel, pela grandeza da tua maldade e multidão de teus peccados.
All your allies [MET] have deserted you and they do not want to help you [any more]. [It is true that] I have punished you severely, [like your] enemies would wound you, because you have committed many sins and you are very guilty.
15 Porque gritas por causa de teu quebrantamento? tua dôr é mortal. Pela grandeza de tua maldade, e multidão de teus peccados, eu fiz estas coisas.
[Because that is true], why do you protest about my punishing you, [as though I had caused] a wound that could not be cured [RHQ]? It was necessary for me to punish you, because you had committed many sins and you were very guilty.
16 Pelo que todos os que te devoram serão devorados; e todos os teus adversarios, todos irão em captiveiro; e os que te roubam serão roubados, e a todos os que te despojam entregarei ao saque.
But [some day] all those who [are trying to] destroy you will be destroyed; all your enemies will be exiled [to other nations]. All those who have stolen things from you will have their [valuable] possessions stolen, and all those who attack you will be attacked.
17 Porque te restaurarei a saude, e te sararei das tuas chagas, diz o Senhor; porquanto te chamam a engeitada. Sião é, dizem, já não ha quem pergunte por ella.
[Everyone] says that you are (outcasts/people that they no longer associate with), and that [you live in] Jerusalem, a city that no one cares about.” But Yahweh says, “I will heal your injuries/wounds and cause you to be healthy again.”
18 Assim diz o Senhor: Eis que tornarei a trazer o captiveiro das tendas de Jacob, e apiedar-me-hei das suas moradas; e a cidade será reedificada sobre o seu montão, e o palacio estará posto como costuma.
This is what Yahweh says: “I will bring the people of Israel back from the lands to which they were taken and enable them to possess their land and their houses again. [When that happens], Jerusalem will be rebuilt on top of its ruins, and the [king’s] palace will be rebuilt to be like it was before.
19 E sairá d'elles o louvor e a voz de jubilo; e multiplical-os-hei, e não serão diminuidos, e glorifical-os-hei, e não serão acanhados.
People will [again] sing joyfully to thank [me], and I will cause there to be more people [in Jerusalem], not fewer; I will cause them to be honored, not despised.
20 E seus filhos serão como da antiguidade, e a sua congregação será confirmada perante o meu rosto; e farei visitação sobre todos os seus oppressores.
Their children will [prosper] like they did before. I will cause them to be a group of people [who worship] me, and I will punish any [nation] that oppresses them.
21 E o seu principe será d'elles; e o seu governador sairá do meio d'elle, e o farei approximar, e elle se chegará a mim; porque quem será aquelle que empenhe o seu coração para se chegar a mim? diz o Senhor.
One of their own people will be their king, and I will invite him to come close to me [to worship me], because no one [RHQ] would (dare/have courage) to come close to me [if I did not invite him].
22 E ser-me-heis por povo, e eu vos serei por Deus.
You [Israeli people] will be my people, and I will be your God.”
23 Eis que a tormenta do Senhor, a sua indignação, saiu, uma tormenta varredeira: cairá cruelmente sobre a cabeça dos impios.
Yahweh will punish [MTY] [your enemies]; [it will be like a great] storm; it will come down [like] a whirlwind, swirling around the heads of wicked people.
24 Não voltará atraz o furor da ira do Senhor, até que tenha executado, e ate que tenha cumprido os designios do seu coração: no fim dos dias entendereis isto
He will not stop being angry until he completely accomplishes [all] that he has planned. In the future, you will understand [all] of this [clearly].
