Lucas 5
1 E aconteceu que, apertando-o a multidão, para ouvir a palavra de Deus, estava elle junto ao lago de Genezareth;
On one occasion the crowd was pressing on Him and listening to God's Message, while He was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret.
2 E viu estar dois barcos junto á praia do lago; e os pescadores, havendo descido d'elles, estavam lavando as redes.
He, however, saw two fishing-boats drawn up on the beach (for the men had gone away from them and were washing the nets),
3 E, entrando n'um dos barcos, que era o de Simão, pediu-lhe que o affastasse um pouco da terra; e, assentando-se, ensinava do barco a multidão.
and going on board one of them, which was Simon's He asked him to push out a little from land. Then He sat down and taught the crowd of people from the boat.
4 E, quando acabou de fallar, disse a Simão: Faze-te ao mar alto, e lançae as vossas redes para pescar.
When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon, "Push out into deep water, and let down your nets for a haul."
5 E, respondendo Simão, disse-lhe: Mestre, havendo trabalhado toda a noite, nada apanhámos; mas, sobre tua palavra, lançarei a rede.
"Rabbi," replied Peter, "all night long we have worked hard and caught nothing; but at your command I will let down the nets."
6 E, fazendo assim, colheram uma grande quantidade de peixes, e rompia-se-lhes a rede.
This they did, and enclosed a vast number of fish; and their nets began to break.
7 E fizeram signal aos companheiros que estavam no outro barco, para que os fossem ajudar. E foram, e encheram ambos os barcos, de maneira tal que quasi iam a pique.
So they signalled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them; they came, and they filled both the boats so that they almost sank.
8 E Simão Pedro, vendo isto, prostrou-se aos pés de Jesus, dizendo: Senhor, ausenta-te de mim, que sou um homem peccador.
When Simon Peter saw this, he fell down at the knees of Jesus, and exclaimed, "Master, leave my boat, for I am a sinful man."
9 Porque o espanto se apoderara d'elle, e de todos os que com elle estavam, por causa da pesca de peixe que haviam feito;
(For he was astonished and terrified--he and all his companions--at the haul of fish which they had taken;
10 E, de egual modo, tambem de Thiago e João, filhos de Zebedeo, que eram companheiros de Simão. E disse Jesus a Simão: Não temas: de agora em diante serás pescador de homens.
and so were Simon's partners James and John, the sons of Zabdi.) But Jesus replied to Simon, "Fear not: from this time you shall be a catcher of men."
11 E, levando os barcos para terra, deixando tudo, o seguiram.
Then, after bringing their boats to land, they left everything and followed Him.
12 E aconteceu que, estando n'uma das cidades, eis que um homem cheio de lepra, vendo a Jesus, prostrou-se sobre o rosto, e rogou-lhe, dizendo: Senhor, se quizeres, bem podes limpar-me.
On another occasion, when He was in one of the towns, there was a man there covered with leprosy, who, seeing Jesus, threw himself at His feet and implored Him, saying, "Sir, if only you are willing, you are able to make me clean."
13 E elle, estendendo a mão, tocou-o, dizendo: Quero; sê limpo. E logo a lepra desappareceu d'elle.
Reaching out His hand and touching him, Jesus said, "I am willing; be cleansed!" And instantly the leprosy left him.
14 E ordenou-lhe que a ninguem o dissesse. Porém vae, disse, mostra-te ao sacerdote, e offerece, pela tua purificação, o que Moysés determinou, para que lhes sirva de testemunho.
He ordered him to tell no one. "But go," He said, "show yourself to the Priest, and make the offering for your purification which Moses appointed, as evidence for them."
15 Porém a sua fama se dilatava ainda mais, e ajuntavam-se muitas gentes para o ouvirem e para serem por elle curados das suas enfermidades.
But all the more the report about Him spread abroad, and great multitudes crowded to hear Him and to be cured of their diseases;
16 Porém elle retirava-se para os desertos, e ali orava.
but Jesus Himself constantly withdrew into the Desert and there prayed.
17 E aconteceu que, n'um d'aquelles dias, estava ensinando, e estavam ali assentados phariseos e doutores da lei, que tinham vindo de todas as aldeias da Galilea, e da Judea, e de Jerusalem, e a virtude do Senhor estava com elle para os curar.
One day He was teaching, and there were Pharisees and teachers of the Law sitting there who had come from every village in Galilee and Judaea and from Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present for Him to cure people.
18 E eis que uns homens transportaram n'uma cama um homem que estava paralytico, e procuravam introduzil-o, e pôl-o diante d'elle;
And a party of men came carrying a palsied man on a bed, and they endeavoured to bring him in and lay him before Jesus.
19 E, não achando por onde podessem introduzil-o, por causa da multidão, subiram ao telhado, e pelas telhas o baixaram com a cama, até ao meio, diante de Jesus.
But when they could find no way of doing so because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down through the tiling--bed and all--into the midst, in front of Jesus.
20 E, vendo elle a fé d'elles, disse-lhe: Homem, os teus peccados te são perdoados.
He saw their faith and said to him, "Friend, your sins are forgiven."
21 E os escribas e os phariseos começaram a arrazoar, dizendo: Quem é este que diz blasphemias? Quem pode perdoar peccados, senão só Deus?
Then the Scribes and Pharisees began to cavil, asking, "Who is this, uttering blasphemies? Who but God alone can forgive sins?"
22 Jesus, porém, conhecendo os seus pensamentos, respondeu, e disse-lhes: Que arrazoaes em vossos corações?
Well aware of their reasonings, Jesus answered their questions by asking in turn, "What is this that you are debating in your hearts?
23 Qual é mais facil? dizer: Os teus peccados te são perdoados; ou dizer: Levanta-te, e anda?
Which is easier? --to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Rise and walk'?
24 Ora, para que saibaes que o Filho do homem tem sobre a terra poder de perdoar os peccados (disse ao paralytico), A ti te digo: Levanta-te, toma a tua cama, e vae para tua casa.
But to prove to you that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins" --Turning to the paralytic He said, "I bid you, Rise, take up your bed, and go home."
25 E, levantando-se logo diante d'elles, e tomando a cama em que estava deitado, foi para sua casa, glorificando a Deus.
Instantly he stood up in their presence, took up the mattress on which he had been lying, and went away to his home, giving glory to God.
26 E todos ficaram maravilhados, e glorificaram a Deus; e ficaram cheios de temor, dizendo: Hoje vimos prodigios.
Amazement seized them all. "Glory to God!" was the abiding feeling. Yet fear flashed through their minds and they said, "We have seen strange things to-day."
27 E, depois d'estas coisas, saiu, e viu um publicano, chamado Levi, assentado na recebedoria, e disse-lhe: Segue-me.
After this He went out and noticed a tax-gatherer, Levi by name, sitting at the Toll office; and He said to him, "Follow me."
28 E elle, deixando tudo, levantou-se e o seguiu.
He rose, left everything, and followed Him.
29 E fez-lhe Levi um grande banquete em sua casa; e havia ali uma multidão de publicanos e outros que estavam com elles á mesa.
Levi also gave a great entertainment at his house in honour of Jesus, and there was a large party of tax-gatherers and others at table with them.
30 E os escribas d'elles, e os phariseos, murmuravam contra os seus discipulos, dizendo: Porque comeis e bebeis com publicanos e peccadores?
This led the Pharisees and Scribes of their party to expostulate with His disciples and ask, "Why are you eating and drinking with these tax-gatherers and notorious sinners?"
31 E Jesus, respondendo, disse-lhes: Não necessitam de medico os que estão sãos, mas, sim, os que estão enfermos;
But Jesus replied to them, "It is not men in good health who require a physician, but the sick.
32 Eu não vim para chamar os justos, mas, sim, os peccadores ao arrependimento.
I have not come to call the righteous to repentance, but sinners."
33 Disseram-lhe então elles: Porque jejuam os discipulos de João muitas vezes, e fazem orações, como tambem os dos phariseos, porém os teus comem e bebem?
Again they said to Him, "John's disciples fast often and pray, as do also those of the pharisees; but yours eat and drink."
34 Mas elle lhes disse: Podeis vós fazer jejuar os filhos das bodas, emquanto o esposo está com elles?
"Can you compel the bridal party to fast," replied Jesus, "so long as they have the bridegroom among them?
35 Dias virão, porém, em que o esposo lhes será tirado, e então, n'aquelles dias, jejuarão.
But a time for this will come, when the Bridegroom has been taken away from them: then, at that time, they will fast."
36 E disse-lhes tambem uma parabola: Ninguem deita remendo de panno novo em vestido velho; d'outra maneira o novo romperá o velho, e o remendo novo não condiz com o velho.
He also spoke in figurative language to them. "No one," He said, "tears a piece from a new garment to mend an old one. Otherwise he would not only spoil the new, but the patch from the new would not match the old.
37 E ninguem deita vinho novo em odres velhos; d'outra maneira o vinho novo romperá os odres, e entornar-se-ha o vinho, e os odres se estragarão;
Nor does any one pour new wine into old wine-skins. Otherwise the new wine would burst the skins, the wine itself would be spilt, and the skins be destroyed.
38 Mas o vinho novo deve deitar-se em odres novos, e ambos juntamente se conservarão.
But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.
39 E ninguem que beber o velho quer logo o novo, porque diz: Melhor é o velho.
Nor does any one after drinking old wine wish for new; for he says, 'The old is better.'"
