< João 19 >

1 Pilatos pois tomou então a Jesus, e o açoitou:
Then Pilate took Jesus [inside and had soldiers] (scourge Jesus/strike Jesus with a whip that had pieces of metal or bone fastened to it).
2 E os soldados, tecendo uma corôa de espinhos, lh'a pozeram sobre a cabeça, e lhe vestiram uma veste de purpura.
The soldiers also took [some branches with] thorns and wove them to make [something like] a crown. Then they put it on his head. They also put a purple robe on him. [They did these things to ridicule him by pretending that he was a king].
3 E diziam: Salve, Rei dos Judeos. E davam-lhe bofetadas.
Then they kept coming to him and saying, “Hooray for the King of the Jews [IRO]!” and slapping him [on his face].
4 Então Pilatos saiu outra vez fóra, e disse-lhes: Eis aqui vol-o trago fóra, para que saibaes que não acho n'elle crime algum.
Once more Pilate came outside and said to the crowd, “Look! I am bringing him out to you so that you may know that I do not find that he has done anything for which we should punish him [any more].”
5 Saiu pois Jesus fóra, levando a corôa de espinhos e o vestido de purpura. E disse-lhes Pilatos: Eis-aqui o homem.
When Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Look at this [wretched] man!”
6 Vendo-o pois os principaes dos sacerdotes e os servos, clamaram, dizendo: Crucifica-o, crucifica-o. Disse-lhes Pilatos: Tomae-o vós, e crucificae-o; porque eu nenhum crime acho n'elle.
When the chief priests and Temple guards saw him, they shouted, “Command your soldiers to kill him by nailing him to a cross! Crucify him!” Pilate, [knowing that they could not legally do it themselves], said to them, “You yourselves take him and nail him to a cross! As for me, I do not find that he has done anything for which we should punish him.”
7 Responderam-lhe os judeos: Nós temos uma lei, e, segundo a nossa lei, deve morrer, porque se fez Filho de Deus.
The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] replied, “[Our ancestor Moses gave us] the law that says we must kill anyone [who claims to be God]. This man claims that he is (the Son of/the man who is also) God, [so you must have him killed] {[command your soldiers to kill him]}.”
8 E Pilatos, quando ouviu esta palavra, mais atemorisado ficou.
When Pilate heard that, he was more afraid [of what would happen to himself if he commanded the soldiers to kill Jesus].
9 E entrou outra vez na audiencia, e disse a Jesus: D'onde és tu? Mas Jesus não lhe deu resposta.
So he [took Jesus] back inside the headquarters. He said to Jesus, “Where do you [really] come from?” But Jesus did not answer him.
10 Disse-lhe pois Pilatos: Não me fallas a mim? não sabes tu que tenho poder para te crucificar e tenho poder para te soltar?
So Pilate said to him, “Are you refusing to answer me? Do you not know that I have authority to release you, and I [also] have authority to [have] you crucified {command my soldiers to crucify you}?”
11 Respondeu Jesus: Nenhum poder terias contra mim, se de cima te não fosse dado; porém aquelle que me entregou a ti maior peccado tem.
Jesus replied, “The only authority you have is what has been given to you by God [MTY] {what God [MTY] has given you}. The [high priest] put me into your hands. [He has done to me what he wanted to do, and you do not really want to do it]. So he is guilty of committing a greater sin than you are.”
12 Desde então Pilatos procurava soltal-o; mas os judeos clamavam, dizendo: Se soltas este, não és amigo do Cesar: qualquer que se faz rei contradiz ao Cesar.
Because of that, Pilate kept trying to release Jesus. But the Jewish [leaders][SYN], [threatening to report to the Emperor that Pilate was not going to punish a man who claimed he was a king], continued to shout, “Anyone who claims that he is a king is opposing the Emperor! So if you release this man, [we will make sure that] the Emperor [learns about it, and then he will not consider you as] his friend!”
13 Ouvindo pois Pilatos este dito, levou a Jesus para fóra, e assentou-se no tribunal, no logar chamado Lithostrótos, e em hebraico Gabbatha.
When Pilate heard that, he brought Jesus out again. He sat down at the place where he made decisions [about punishing people]. The place was called {People called it} The Stone Pavement. In the Aramaic language its name was Gabbatha.
14 E era a preparação da paschoa, e quasi á hora sexta; e disse aos judeos: Eis aqui o vosso Rei.
It was almost noontime, on the day that they prepared [things for] the Passover [celebration] (OR, the day before the [Sabbath during] the Passover [celebration]). Pilate said to the Jewish [leaders] [SYN], [ridiculing them], “Look at your king!”
15 Mas elles bradaram: Tira, tira, crucifica-o. Disse-lhes Pilatos: Hei de crucificar o vosso Rei? Responderam os principaes dos sacerdotes: Não temos rei, senão o Cesar.
They shouted, “Take him away! Take him away! [Have] him crucified {Command your soldiers to nail him to a cross}!” Pilate said to them, “[He is] your king! Do you really want me to [tell my soldiers to] nail him to a cross?” The chief priests replied, “The Emperor is our king! We do not have any other king!”
16 Então entregou-lh'o, para que fosse crucificado. E tomaram a Jesus, e o levaram.
Then [at last] Pilate agreed to do [what they wanted, and he told the soldiers] to crucify Jesus. John 19:16b-24 Then the soldiers took Jesus away.
17 E, levando elle ás costas a sua cruz, saiu para o logar chamado Caveira, que em hebraico se chama Golgotha,
[As they left], he himself was carrying the cross [on which they were going to nail him]. They went to a place called The Place of a Skull. In the Aramaic language it is called {they call it} Golgotha.
18 Onde o crucificaram, e com elle outros dois, um de cada lado, e Jesus no meio.
There, [after removing most of his clothes], the soldiers nailed him to the cross. They also [nailed] two other [criminals to crosses]. There was one on each side, and Jesus was in the middle.
19 E Pilatos escreveu tambem um titulo, e pôl-o em cima da cruz; e n'elle estava escripto: JESUS NAZARENO, REI DOS JUDEOS.
Pilate also [had them] write [on a board] a notice [that stated why they were executing him], and fasten it to the cross. But all they wrote was ‘Jesus from Nazareth, the King of the Jews’.
20 E muitos dos judeos leram este titulo; porque o logar onde Jesus estava crucificado era proximo da cidade; e estava escripto em hebraico, grego e latim.
Many Jews were [able to] read this sign, because the place where Jesus was nailed {where they nailed Jesus} to the cross was very close to [Jerusalem, where many people had come for the celebration], and because it was written {they wrote it} in three languages: Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
21 Diziam pois os principaes sacerdotes dos judeos a Pilatos: Não escrevas, Rei dos Judeos; mas que elle disse: Sou Rei dos Judeos.
So the Jewish priests went back to Pilate and protested, saying to him, “Change what they have written from ‘The King of the Jews’ to ‘This man said that he is the King of the Jews’!”
22 Respondeu Pilatos: O que escrevi, escrevi.
Pilate replied, “What I [told them to] write is what they have written, [and I] will not [change it].”
23 Tendo pois os soldados crucificado a Jesus, tomaram os seus vestidos, e fizeram quatro partes, para cada soldado uma parte, e a tunica. Porém a tunica, tecida toda d'alto a baixo, não tinha costura.
After the soldiers nailed Jesus to the cross, they took his clothes and divided them into four parts, one part for each soldier. But they kept his cloak [separate]. This cloak was without seam, woven [from top to bottom], one piece of cloth.
24 Disseram pois uns aos outros: Não a rasguemos, mas lancemos sortes sobre ella, para vêr de quem será. Para que se cumprisse a Escriptura que diz: Dividiram entre si os meus vestidos, e sobre a minha vestidura lançaram sortes. E os soldados, pois, fizeram estas coisas.
So they said to each other, “Let’s not tear it. Instead, let’s [decide] ([by] throwing lots/[by] gambling) who will get it.” So that is what the soldiers did. As a result, these words were fulfilled {they fulfilled these words} that [the Psalmist had written] in Scripture, They divided [most of] my clothes among themselves. They cast lots for [one piece of] my clothing.
25 E junto á cruz de Jesus estava sua mãe, e a irmã de sua mãe, Maria, mulher de Cleophas, e Maria Magdalena.
Near the cross where [they had nailed] Jesus stood his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the [wife] of Clopas, and [another] Mary, the woman from Magdala [village].
26 Ora Jesus, vendo ali a sua mãe, e o discipulo a quem elle amava estando presente, disse a sua mãe: Mulher, eis ahi o teu filho.
Jesus saw his mother standing there. He also saw me standing nearby. Then he said to his mother, “This man [will now be like] your son.”
27 Depois disse ao discipulo: Eis ahi tua mãe. E desde aquella hora o discipulo a recebeu em sua casa.
And he said to me, “[Treat this] woman as [MET] your mother.” So from that time I took her to my home [and took care of her].
28 Depois, sabendo Jesus que já todas as coisas estavam acabadas, para que a Escriptura se cumprisse, disse: Tenho sêde.
Later, Jesus knew that everything [that God sent him to do] had now been completed {that he had now completed everything [that God sent him to do]}, [but he knew that something else that was written in] the Scriptures [had] to be fulfilled {[that he had] to fulfill [something else that they had written in] the Scriptures}. So he said, “I am thirsty!”
29 Estava pois ali um vaso cheio de vinagre. E encheram de vinagre uma esponja, e, pondo-a n'um hyssope, lh'a chegaram á bocca.
There was a jar of sour wine there. So [someone took] a stalk of [a plant called] hyssop and [fastened] a sponge [to it. Then] he dipped [the sponge into the wine and] lifted it up to Jesus’ lips.
30 E, quando Jesus tomou o vinagre, disse: Está consummado. E, inclinando a cabeça, entregou o espirito.
When Jesus tasted the sour wine, he shouted, “[I] have finished [all that I came to do]!” Then he bowed his head and (died/handed over his spirit [to God]).
31 Os judeos, pois, para que no sabbado não ficassem os corpos na cruz, porque era a preparação (pois era grande o dia de sabbado), rogaram a Pilatos que se lhes quebrassem as pernas, e fossem tirados.
That was the day that they prepared [everything for their] ([Sabbath/day of rest]). The next day was a special day of rest, [because it was the day of rest during the Passover celebration]. The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] did not want the bodies [of the three men] to remain on the cross during their (Sabbath/day of rest) [because leaving bodies hanging overnight would be contrary to their Jewish laws]. So they went to Pilate and asked him [to command that] the legs [of the three men on the crosses] be broken {the [soldiers] to break the legs [of the three men on the crosses]}, [so that they would die quickly]. Then their [bodies] could be taken down [and buried] {someone could take down their bodies [and bury them]}.
32 Foram pois os soldados, e, na verdade, quebraram as pernas ao primeiro, e ao outro que com elle fôra crucificado;
So, [after Pilate agreed], the soldiers went and broke the legs of the first man whom they had nailed on a cross near Jesus. Then they broke the legs of the second man.
33 Mas, vindo a Jesus, e vendo-o já morto, não lhe quebraram as pernas.
But when they came to Jesus, they saw that he was dead already. So they did not break his legs.
34 Porém um dos soldados lhe furou o lado com uma lança, e logo saiu sangue e agua.
Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear [to make sure that Jesus was dead]. Immediately blood [clots] and [other] liquid flowed out, [which showed that Jesus was really dead].
35 E aquelle que isto viu o testificou, e o seu testemunho é verdadeiro; e sabe que é verdade o que diz, para que tambem vós o creiaes.
I, [John], saw this myself, and what I am writing is true. I [know that] I am telling the truth, and I am saying this in order that you may believe [in] (OR, [my testimony about]) [Jesus].
36 Porque estas coisas aconteceram para que se cumprisse a Escriptura, que diz: Nenhum dos seus ossos será quebrado.
These things happened in order that these words would be fulfilled {to fulfill these words} [that are written in] Scripture: “Not one of his bones will be broken {No one will break any of his bones}.”
37 E outra vez diz a Escriptura: Verão o que traspassaram.
And [they fulfilled] another Scripture passage [that has these words]: ‘They will look on the one whom they have pierced’.
38 Depois d'isto, José de Arimathea (o que era discipulo de Jesus, mas occulto, por medo dos judeos) rogou a Pilatos que lhe permittisse tirar o corpo de Jesus. E Pilatos lh'o permittiu. Então foi e tirou o corpo de Jesus.
Later, Joseph, from Arimathea [town, went to Pilate and] asked Pilate [to allow him] to take Jesus’ body [down from the cross]. Joseph was a disciple of Jesus, but he did not tell anyone that, because he was afraid of the [other] Jewish [leaders] [SYN]. Pilate permitted him to take Jesus’ body, so he went, along [with others], and they took Jesus’ body [down from the cross].
39 E foi tambem Nicodemos (aquelle que anteriormente se dirigira de noite a Jesus), levando quasi cem arrateis d'um composto de myrrha e aloes.
Nicodemus was one of them. He was the man who previously went to visit Jesus at night. Nicodemus bought an [expensive] mixture of myrrh and aloe [spices to put on the body]. It weighed about (75 pounds/35 kilograms).
40 Tomaram pois o corpo de Jesus e o envolveram em lençoes com as especiarias, como os judeos teem por costume preparar para o sepulchro.
They took the body of Jesus and wrapped strips of linen cloth around it, putting the spices in with the strips of cloth. They did this according to the Jewish customs [about burying bodies in tombs].
41 E havia um horto n'aquelle logar onde fôra crucificado, e no horto um sepulchro novo, em que ainda ninguem havia sido posto.
Close to the place where Jesus was crucified {where they nailed Jesus to the cross} there was a grove [of trees], and [at the edge of] that grove was a new burial cave. Nobody had ever been put in that cave [previously].
42 Ali pois (por causa da preparação dos judeos, e por estar perto aquelle sepulchro), pozeram a Jesus.
The Jewish day of rest would start [at sunset, and they had to finish burying his body before then]. So, since that cave was nearby, they laid Jesus’ body there [and rolled a huge stone in front of the entrance].
