Lucas 3
1 E no anno quinze do imperio de Tiberio Cesar, sendo Poncio Pilatos presidente da Judea, Herodes tetrarcha da Galilea, e seu irmão Philippe tetrarcha da Iturea e da provincia de Traconites, e Lysaneas tetrarcha da Abylinia,
Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being Governor of Judaea, Herod Tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip Tetrarch of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias Tetrarch of Abilene,
2 Sendo Annás e Caiphás summos sacerdotes, veiu no deserto a palavra de Deus a João, filho de Zacharias.
during the High-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, a message from God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the Desert.
3 E percorreu toda a terra ao redor do Jordão, prégando o baptismo de arrependimento, para o perdão dos peccados;
John went into all the district about the Jordan proclaiming a baptism of the penitent for the forgiveness of sins;
4 Segundo o que está escripto no livro das palavras do propheta Isaias, que diz: Voz do que clama no deserto: Preparae o caminho do Senhor; endireitae as suas veredas.
as it is written in the book of the prophet Isaiah, "The voice of one crying aloud! 'In the Desert prepare ye a road for the Lord: make His highway straight.
5 Todo o valle se encherá, e todo o monte e outeiro se abaixará; e os caminhos tortos se endireitarão, e os caminhos escabrosos se aplanarão;
Every ravine shall be filled up, and every mountain and hill levelled down, the crooked places shall be turned into straight roads, and the rugged ways into smooth;
6 E toda a carne verá a salvação de Deus.
and then shall all mankind see God's salvation.'"
7 Dizia pois João á multidão que sahia a ser baptizada por elle: Raça de viboras, quem vos ensinou a fugir da ira que está para vir?
Accordingly John used to say to the crowds who came out to be baptized by him, "O vipers' brood, who has warned you to flee from the coming wrath?
8 Dae pois fructos dignos de arrependimento, e não comeceis a dizer em vós mesmos: Temos Abrahão por pae; porque eu vos digo que até d'estas pedras pode Deus suscitar filhos a Abrahão.
Live lives which shall prove your change of heart; and do not begin to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our forefather,' for I tell you that God can raise up descendants for Abraham from these stones.
9 E tambem já está posto o machado á raiz das arvores; toda a arvore, pois, que não dá bom fructo, corta-se e lança-se no fogo.
And even now the axe is lying at the root of the trees, so that every tree which fails to yield good fruit will quickly be hewn down and thrown into the fire."
10 E a multidão o interrogava, dizendo: Que faremos pois?
The crowds repeatedly asked him, "What then are we to do?"
11 E, respondendo elle, disse-lhes: Quem tiver duas tunicas, reparta com o que não tem, e quem tiver alimentos faça da mesma maneira.
"Let the man who has two coats," he answered, "give one to the man who has none; and let the man who has food share it with others."
12 E chegaram tambem uns publicanos, para serem baptizados, e disseram-lhe: Mestre, que devemos fazer?
There came also a party of tax-gatherers to be baptized, and they asked him, "Rabbi, what are we to do?"
13 E elle lhes disse: Não peçaes mais do que o que vos está ordenado.
"Do not exact more than the legal amount," he replied.
14 E uns soldados o interrogaram tambem, dizendo: E nós que faremos? E elle lhes disse: Não trateis mal, nem defraudeis alguem, e contentae-vos com o vosso soldo.
The soldiers also once and again inquired of him, "And we, what are we to do?" His answer was, "Neither intimidate any one nor lay false charges; and be content with your pay."
15 E, estando o povo em expectação, e pensando todos de João, em seus corações, se porventura seria o Christo,
And while the people were in suspense and all were debating in their minds whether John might possibly be the Anointed One,
16 Respondeu João a todos, dizendo: Eu, na verdade, baptizo-vos com agua, mas vem um mais poderoso do que eu, a quem eu não sou digno de desatar a correia das alparcas; esse vos baptizará com o Espirito Sancto e com fogo.
he answered the question by saying to them all, "As for me, I am baptizing you with water, but One mightier than I is coming, whose very sandal-strap I am not worthy to unfasten: He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and with fire.
17 E a sua pá está em sua mão; e limpará a sua eira, e ajuntará o trigo no seu celleiro, porém queimará a palha com fogo que nunca se apaga.
His winnowing-shovel is in His hand to clear out His threshing-floor, and to gather the wheat into His storehouse; but the chaff He will burn up in fire unquenchable."
18 E assim, admoestando, muitas outras coisas tambem annunciava ao povo.
With many exhortations besides these he declared the Good News to the people.
19 Sendo, porém, o tetrarcha Herodes reprehendido por elle por causa de Herodias, mulher de seu irmão Philippe, e por todas as maldades que Herodes tinha feito,
But Herod the Tetrarch, being repeatedly rebuked by him about Herodias his brother's wife, and about all the wicked deeds that he had done,
20 Accrescentou a todas as outras ainda esta, de encerrar João n'um carcere.
now added this to crown all the rest, that he threw John into prison.
21 E aconteceu que, como todo o povo fosse baptizado, e sendo baptizado tambem Jesus, e orando, abriu-se o céu,
Now when all the people had been baptized, and Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the sky opened,
22 E o Espirito Sancto desceu sobre elle em forma corporea, como uma pomba; e ouviu-se uma voz do céu, que dizia: Tu és o meu filho amado, em ti me tenho comprazido.
and the Holy Spirit came down in bodily shape, like a dove, upon Him, and a voice came from Heaven, which said, "Thou art My Son, dearly loved: in Thee is My delight."
