Lucas 15
1 E chegavam-se a elle todos os publicanos e peccadores para o ouvir.
But all the tax-collectors and the sinners were, unto him, drawing near, to be hearkening unto him;
2 E os phariseos e os escribas murmuravam, dizendo: Este recebe peccadores, e come com elles.
and both the Pharisees and the Scribes were murmuring, saying, This man, unto sinners, giveth welcome, and eateth with them.
3 E elle lhes propoz esta parabola, dizendo:
And he spake unto them this parable, saying—
4 Que homem d'entre vós, tendo cem ovelhas, e perdendo uma d'ellas, não deixa no deserto as noventa e nove, e não vae após a perdida até que venha a achal-a?
What man from among you, having a hundred sheep, and losing, from among them, one, doth not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go his way after the lost one, until he find it?
5 E, achando-a, a põe sobre seus hombros, gostoso;
And, finding it, he layeth it upon his shoulders, rejoicing;
6 E, chegando a casa, convoca os amigos e visinhos, dizendo-lhes: Alegrae-vos comigo, porque já achei a minha ovelha perdida.
and, coming unto his house, calleth together the friends and the neighbours, saying unto them—Rejoice with me! because I have found my sheep that was lost!
7 Digo-vos que assim haverá mais alegria no céu sobre um peccador que se arrependa do que sobre noventa e nove justos que não necessitam de arrependimento.
I say unto you—Thus, joy in heaven, will there be, over one sinner repenting, rather than over ninety-nine righteous persons, who indeed have, no need, of repentance.
8 Ou qual a mulher que, tendo dez drachmas, se perder uma drachma, não accende a candeia, e não varre a casa, e não busca com diligencia até a achar?
Or, what woman, having, ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek carefully, until she find it?
9 E, achando-a, convoca as amigas e visinhas, dizendo: Alegrae-vos comigo, porque já achei a drachma perdida.
And, having found it, she calleth together her female friends and neighbours, saying—Rejoice with me! because I have found the piece of silver which I had lost.
10 Assim vos digo que ha alegria diante dos anjos de Deus sobre um peccador que se arrepende.
Thus, I say unto you, there ariseth joy in presence of the messengers of God, over one sinner repenting.
11 E disse: Um certo homem tinha dois filhos;
And he said—A certain man, had two sons.
12 E o mais moço d'elles disse ao pae: Pae, dá-me a parte da fazenda que me pertence. E elle lhes repartiu a fazenda.
And the younger of them said unto the father—Father! give me the share that falleth to me, of what there is. And, he, divided unto them the living.
13 E, poucos dias depois, o filho mais novo, ajuntando tudo, partiu para uma terra mui longe, e ali desperdiçou a sua fazenda, vivendo dissolutamente.
And, after not many days, the younger son, gathering all together, left home for a country far away, and, there, squandered his substance with riotous living.
14 E, havendo elle já gastado tudo, houve n'aquella terra uma grande fome, e começou a padecer necessidade.
And, when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine throughout that country, —and, he, began to be in want.
15 E foi, e chegou-se a um dos cidadãos d'aquella terra, o qual o mandou para os seus campos a apascentar os porcos.
And he went his way, and joined himself unto one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to be feeding swine.
16 E desejava saciar o seu estomago com as bolotas que os porcos comiam, e ninguem lhe dava nada.
And he used to long to be filled with the pods which the swine were eating; and, no man, was giving unto him.
17 E, tornando em si, disse: Quantos jornaleiros de meu pae teem abundancia de pão, e eu pereço de fome!
But coming, to himself, he said—How many hired servants of my father, have bread enough and to spare, whereas, I, with famine, here, am perishing!
18 Levantar-me-hei, e irei ter com meu pae, e dir-lhe-hei: Pae, pequei contra o céu e perante ti;
I will arise, and go unto my father, and will say unto him—Father! I have sinned against heaven, and before thee:
19 Já não sou digno de ser chamado teu filho; faze-me como um dos teus jornaleiros.
No longer, am I worthy to be called a son of thine, —Make me as one of thy hired servants. And he arose, and came unto his own father.
20 E, levantando-se, foi para seu pae; e, quando ainda estava longe, viu-o seu pae, e se moveu de intima compaixão, e, correndo, lançou-se-lhe ao pescoço e o beijou.
Now, while yet he was holding afar off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and, running, fell upon his neck, and tenderly kissed him.
21 E o filho lhe disse: Pae, pequei contra o céu e perante ti, e já não sou digno de ser chamado teu filho.
And the son said unto him—Father! I have sinned against heaven, and before thee: No longer, am I worthy to be called a son of thine, —[make me as one of thy hired servants.]
22 Mas o pae disse aos seus servos: Trazei depressa o vestido melhor, e vesti-lh'o, e ponde-lhe um annel na mão, e alparcas nos pés;
But the father said unto his servants—Quick! bring forth a robe—the best! and put on him, and get out a ring for his hand, and sandals for his feet.
23 E trazei o bezerro cevado, e matae-o; e comamos, e alegremo-nos;
And be bringing the fatted calf, sacrifice! and let us eat and make merry:
24 Porque este meu filho era morto, e reviveu, tinha-se perdido, e é achado. E começaram a alegrar-se.
Because, this my son, was, dead, and hath come to life again, was lost, and is found. And they began to be making merry.
25 E o seu filho mais velho estava no campo; e quando veiu, e chegou perto de casa, ouviu a musica e as danças.
But his elder son was in a field; and, as, in coming, he drew near unto the house, he heard music and dancing, —
26 E, chamando um dos servos, perguntou-lhe que era aquillo.
and, calling near one of the youths, he inquired what these things, could be.
27 E elle lhe disse: Veiu teu irmão; e teu pae matou o bezerro cevado, porquanto o recuperou são e salvo.
And, he, said unto him, —Thy brother, hath come, and thy father hath sacrificed the fatted calf, because, safe and sound, hath he received him back.
28 Indignou-se, porém, elle, e não queria entrar. E, saindo o pae, o rogava.
But he was provoked to anger, and would not go in. And, his father, coming out, began to entreat him.
29 Mas, respondendo elle, disse ao pae: Eis que te sirvo ha tantos annos, e nunca transgredi o teu mandamento, e nunca me déste um cabrito para alegrar-me com os meus amigos;
But, he, answering said unto his father—Lo! so many years as these, do I serve thee, and, at no time, a commandment of thine, have I transgressed, —And, unto me, at no time, hast thou given a kid, that, with my friends, I might make merry;
30 Vindo, porém, este teu filho, que desperdiçou a tua fazenda com as meretrizes, mataste-lhe o bezerro cevado.
But, when, this thy son, who had devoured thy living with harlots, came, thou didst sacrifice, for him, the fatted calf;
31 E elle lhe disse: Filho, tu sempre estás comigo, e todas as minhas coisas são tuas;
But, he, said unto him—Child! thou, always, art, with me, and, all that is mine, is, thine;
32 Portanto era justo alegrarmo-nos e folgarmos, porque este teu irmão era morto, e reviveu; e tinha-se perdido, e achou-se.
But, to make merry and rejoice, there was need, because, this thy brother—was, dead, and hath come to life again, and was lost, and is found.
