Jó 1
1 Havia um homem na terra d'Uz, cujo nome era Job: e era este homem sincero, recto e temente a Deus e desviando-se do mal.
There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job, and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God, and turning away from evil.
2 E nasceram-lhe sete filhos e tres filhas.
There were born to him seven sons and three daughters.
3 E era o seu gado sete mil ovelhas, e tres mil camelos, e quinhentas juntas de bois, e quinhentas jumentas; era tambem muitissima a gente ao seu serviço, de maneira que era este homem maior do que todos os do oriente.
His possessions also were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the east.
4 E iam seus filhos, e faziam banquetes em casa de cada um no seu dia; e enviavam, e convidavam as suas tres irmãs a comerem e beberem com elles.
His sons went and held a feast in the house of each one on his day; and they sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
5 Succedeu pois que, tendo decorrido o turno de dias de seus banquetes, enviava Job, e os sanctificava, e se levantava de madrugada, e offerecia holocaustos segundo o numero de todos elles; porque dizia Job: Porventura peccaram meus filhos, e amaldiçoaram a Deus no seu coração. Assim o fazia Job continuamente.
It was so, when the days of their feasting had run their course, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts." Job did so continually.
6 E vindo um dia em que os filhos de Deus vieram apresentar-se perante o Senhor, veiu tambem Satanaz entre elles.
Now it happened on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah, that Satan also came among them.
7 Então o Senhor disse a Satanaz: D'onde vens? E Satanaz respondeu ao Senhor, e disse: De rodeiar a terra, e passeiar por ella.
Jehovah said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" Then Satan answered Jehovah, and said, "From going back and forth on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."
8 E disse o Senhor a Satanaz: Consideraste tu a meu servo Job? porque ninguem ha na terra similhante a elle, homem sincero e recto, temente a Deus, e desviando-se do mal.
Jehovah said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant, Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil."
9 Então respondeu Satanaz ao Senhor, e disse: Porventura teme Job a Deus debalde?
Then Satan answered Jehovah, and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing?
10 Porventura não o circumvallaste tu a elle, e a sua casa, e a tudo quanto tem? A obra de suas mãos abençoaste e o seu gado está augmentado na terra.
Haven't you made a hedge around him, and around his household, and around all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his livestock have increased in the land.
11 Mas estende a tua mão, e toca-lhe em tudo quanto tem, e verás se te não amaldiçoa na tua face!
But put forth your hand now, and strike all that he has, and he will curse you to your face."
12 E disse o Senhor a Satanaz: Eis-que tudo quanto tem está na tua mão; sómente contra elle não estendas a tua mão. E Satanaz saiu da presença do Senhor.
Jehovah said to Satan, "Look, all that he has is in your power. Only do not put forth your hand on him." So Satan went forth from the presence of Jehovah.
13 E succedeu um dia, em que seus filhos e suas filhas comiam, e bebiam vinho, na casa de seu irmão primogenito,
Now the day came when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house,
14 Que veiu um mensageiro a Job, e lhe disse: Os bois lavravam, e as jumentas pasciam junto a elles;
that there came a messenger to Job, and said, "The oxen were plowing, and the donkeys grazing beside them,
15 E deram sobre elles os sabeos, e os tomaram, e aos moços feriram ao fio da espada: e só eu escapei tão sómente, para te trazer a nova.
and Sheba attacked, and took them away. Yes, they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you."
16 Estando este ainda fallando, veiu outro e disse: Fogo de Deus caiu do céu, e queimou as ovelhas e os moços, e os consumiu, e só eu escapei tão sómente para te trazer a nova
While he was still speaking, there also came another, and said, "The fire of God has fallen from the sky, and has burned up the sheep and the young men, and consumed them, and I alone have escaped to tell you."
17 Estando ainda este fallando, veiu outro, e disse: Ordenando os chaldeos tres tropas, deram sobre os camelos, e os tomaram, e aos moços feriram ao fio da espada: e só eu escapei tão sómente para te trazer a nova.
While he was still speaking, there came also another, and said, "The Kasdim made three bands, and swept down on the camels, and have taken them away, and killed the young men with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you."
18 Estando ainda este fallando, veiu outro, e disse: Estando teus filhos tuas filhas comendo e bebendo vinho, em casa de seu irmão primogenito,
While he was still speaking, there came also another, and said, "Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house,
19 Eis que um grande vento sobreveiu d'além do deserto, e deu nos quatro cantos da casa, e caiu sobre os mancebos, e morreram: e só eu escapei tão sómente, para te trazer a nova.
and look, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young men, and they are dead. I alone have escaped to tell you."
20 Então Job se levantou, e rasgou o seu manto, e tosquiou a sua cabeça, e se lançou em terra, e adorou,
Then Job arose, and tore his robe, and shaved his head, and fell down with his face to the ground.
21 E disse: Nu sahi do ventre de minha mãe, e nu tornarei para lá; o Senhor o deu, e o Senhor o tomou: bemdito seja o nome do Senhor.
He said, "Naked I came out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there. Jehovah gave, and Jehovah has taken away. Blessed be the name of Jehovah."
22 Em tudo isto Job não peccou, nem attribuiu a Deus falta alguma.
In all this, Job did not sin, nor charge God with wrongdoing.
