Lucas 16
1 E dizia tambem aos seus discipulos: Havia um certo homem rico, o qual tinha um mordomo; e este foi accusado perante elle de dissipar os seus bens.
Then He said further to His disciples: “There was a certain rich man who had a manager, who was accused to him of wasting his goods.
2 E elle, chamando-o, disse-lhe: Que é isto que ouço de ti? Dá contas da tua mordomia, porque já não poderás mais ser mordomo.
So he called him in and said to him: ‘What is this I hear about you? Render an account of your stewardship, because you can no longer be manager.’
3 E o mordomo disse comsigo: Que farei, pois que o meu senhor me tira a mordomia? Cavar, não posso; de mendigar, tenho vergonha.
Then the manager said within himself: ‘What shall I do? My master is taking the management away from me. I do not have strength to dig; I am ashamed to beg
4 Eu sei o que hei-de fazer, para que, quando fôr desapossado da mordomia, me recebam em suas casas.
—I know what I will do, so that whenever I am removed from the management they may receive me into their houses.’
5 E, chamando a si cada um dos devedores do seu senhor, disse ao primeiro: Quanto deves ao meu senhor?
Summoning each one of his master's debtors, he said to the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?’
6 E elle disse: Cem medidas de azeite. E disse-lhe: Toma a tua obrigação, e, assentando-te já, escreve cincoenta.
And he said, ‘A hundred baths of olive oil.’ So he said to him, ‘Take your bill and sit down quickly and write fifty.’
7 Disse depois a outro: E tu quanto deves? E elle disse: Cem alqueires de trigo. E disse-lhe: Toma a tua obrigação, e escreve oitenta.
Then he said to another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ And he said, ‘A hundred measures of wheat.’ So he said to him, ‘Take your bill and write eighty.’
8 E louvou aquelle senhor o injusto mordomo por haver procedido prudentemente, porque os filhos d'este mundo são mais prudentes na sua geração do que os filhos da luz. (aiōn g165)
The master even ‘commended’ the dishonest manager, because he had acted shrewdly. The sons of this age are shrewder in their own generation than the sons of the Light. (aiōn g165)
9 E eu vos digo: Grangeae amigos com as riquezas da injustiça; para que, quando necessitardes, vos recebam nos tabernaculos eternos. (aiōnios g166)
“I even say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous mammon, so that whenever you fail, they may receive you into the eternal dwellings! (aiōnios g166)
10 Quem é fiel no minimo, tambem é fiel no muito; quem é injusto no minimo, tambem é injusto no muito.
He who is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much, and he who is dishonest in a very little is dishonest also in much.
11 Pois, se na riqueza injusta não fostes fieis, quem vos confiará a verdadeira?
If therefore you have not been faithful with the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the genuine?
12 E, se no alheio não fostes fieis, quem vos dará o que é vosso?
And if you have not been faithful in what belongs to another, who will give you what is your own?
13 Nenhum servo pode servir dois senhores; porque, ou ha de aborrecer um e amar o outro, ou se ha de chegar a um e desprezar o outro. Não podeis servir a Deus e a Mammon.
No servant can serve two masters; either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon!”
14 E os phariseos, que eram avarentos, ouviam todas estas coisas, e zombavam d'elle.
Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, were also listening to all these things, and they were ridiculing Him.
15 E disse-lhes: Vós sois os que vos justificaes a vós mesmos diante dos homens, mas Deus conhece os vossos corações, porque, o que entre os homens é elevado, perante Deus é abominação.
So He said to them: “You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. That which is exalted among men is an abomination before God.
16 A lei e os prophetas duraram até João: desde então é annunciado o reino de Deus, e todo o homem forceja por entrar n'elle.
The Law and the Prophets were until John; since then the Kingdom of God is being proclaimed, and every one is trying to force his way into it.
17 E é mais facil passar o céu e a terra do que cair um til da lei.
But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the Law to fail.
18 Qualquer que deixa sua mulher, e casa com outra, adultéra; e aquelle que casa com a repudiada pelo marido tambem adultéra.
“Whoever divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and whoever marries her who is divorced from her husband commits adultery.
19 Ora, havia um homem rico, e vestia-se de purpura e de linho finissimo, e vivia todos os dias regalada e esplendidamente.
“Now there was a certain rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen, living in luxury every day.
20 Havia tambem um certo mendigo, chamado Lazaro, que jazia cheio de chagas á porta d'aquelle;
And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores, who had been placed at his gate,
21 E desejava saciar-se com as migalhas que cahiam da mesa do rico; e até vinham os cães, e lambiam-lhe as chagas.
just wanting to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table—why even the dogs would come and lick his sores!
22 E aconteceu que o mendigo morreu, e foi levado pelos anjos para o seio d'Abrahão; e morreu tambem o rico, e foi sepultado.
In due time the beggar died and was carried away to Abraham's bosom by the angels. “The rich man also died and was buried.
23 E no inferno, erguendo os olhos, estando em tormentos, viu ao longe Abrahão, e Lazaro no seu seio. (Hadēs g86)
And in Hades he looked up and saw Abraham at a distance, and Lazarus very close to him. And being in torment, (Hadēs g86)
24 E elle, clamando, disse: Pae Abrahão, tem misericordia de mim, e manda a Lazaro que molhe na agua a ponta do seu dedo e me refresque a lingua, porque estou atormentado n'esta chamma.
he called out, saying, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; because I am tormented by this flame!’
25 Disse, porém, Abrahão: Filho, lembra-te de que recebeste os teus bens em tua vida, e Lazaro sómente males; e agora este é consolado e tu atormentado;
But Abraham said: ‘Child, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus had bad things; but now he is being comforted, and you tormented.
26 E, além d'isso, está posto um grande abysmo entre nós e vós, de sorte que os que quizessem passar d'aqui para vós não poderiam, nem tão pouco os de lá passar para cá
And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can anyone from there cross over to us.’
27 E disse elle: Rogo-te pois, ó pae, que o mandes a casa de meu pae,
Then he said, ‘I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house,
28 Porque tenho cinco irmãos; para que lhes dê testemunho, afim de que não venham tambem para este logar de tormento.
because I have five brothers, so that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment.’
29 Disse-lhe Abrahão: Teem Moysés e os prophetas; ouçam-n'os.
Abraham said to him, ‘They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.’
30 E disse elle: Não, pae Abrahão; mas, se alguem dos mortos fosse ter com elles, arrepender-se-hiam.
So he said to him, ‘Oh no, father Abraham—if someone from the dead should go to them, they will repent!’
31 Porém Abrahão lhe disse: Se não ouvem a Moysés e aos prophetas, tão pouco acreditarão, ainda que algum dos mortos resuscite.
He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone should rise from the dead.’”
