Mateus 8
1 E descendo elle do monte, seguiu-o uma grande multidão.
Upon descending from the hill country He was followed by immense crowds.
2 E, eis-que veiu um leproso, e o adorou, dizendo: Senhor, se tu queres, podes purificar-me.
And a leper came to Him, and throwing himself at His feet, said, "Sir, if only you are willing you are able to cleanse me."
3 E Jesus, estendendo a mão, tocou-o, dizendo: Quero: sê puro. E logo ficou purificado da lepra.
So Jesus put out His hand and touched him, and said, "I am willing: be cleansed." Instantly he was cleansed from his leprosy;
4 Disse-lhe então Jesus: Olha não o digas a alguem, mas vae, mostra-te ao sacerdote, e apresenta a offerta que Moysés determinou, para lhes servir de testemunho.
and Jesus said to him, "Be careful to tell no one, but go and show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses appointed as evidence for them."
5 E, entrando Jesus em Capernaum, chegou junto d'elle um centurião, rogando-lhe,
After His entry into Capernaum a Captain came to Him, and entreated Him.
6 E dizendo: Senhor, o meu creado jaz em casa paralytico, e violentamente atormentado.
"Sir," he said, "my servant at home is lying ill with paralysis, and is suffering great pain."
7 E Jesus lhe disse: Eu irei, e lhe darei saude.
"I will come and cure him," said Jesus.
8 E o centurião, respondendo, disse: Senhor, não sou digno de que entres debaixo do meu telhado, mas dize sómente uma palavra, e o meu creado sarará;
"Sir," replied the Captain, "I am not a fit person to receive you under my roof: merely say the word, and my servant will be cured.
9 Pois tambem eu sou homem sujeito ao poder, e tenho soldados ás minhas ordens; e digo a este: Vae, e elle vae; e a outro: Vem, e elle vem; e ao meu creado: Faze isto, e elle o faz.
For I myself am also under authority, and have soldiers under me. To one I say 'Go,' and he goes, to another 'Come,' and he comes, and to my slave 'Do this or that,' and he does it."
10 E maravilhou-se Jesus, ouvindo isto, e disse aos que o seguiam: Em verdade vos digo que nem em Israel encontrei tanta fé.
Jesus listened to this reply, and was astonished, and said to the people following Him, "I solemnly tell you that in no Israelite have I found faith as great as this.
11 Mas eu vos digo que muitos virão do oriente e do occidente, e assentar-se-hão á mesa com Abrahão, e Isaac, e Jacob, no reino dos céus;
And I tell you that many will come from the east and from the west and will recline at table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the Kingdom of the Heavens,
12 E os filhos do reino serão lançados nas trevas exteriores: ali haverá pranto e ranger de dentes.
while the natural heirs of the Kingdom will be driven out into the darkness outside: there will be the weeping aloud and the gnashing of teeth."
13 Então disse Jesus ao centurião: Vae, e como creste te seja feito. E n'aquella mesma hora o seu creado sarou.
And Jesus said to the Captain, "Go, and just as you have believed, so be it for you." And the servant recovered precisely at that time.
14 E Jesus, entrando em casa de Pedro, viu a sogra d'este jazendo com febre.
After this Jesus went to the house of Peter, whose mother-in-law he found ill in bed with fever.
15 E tocou-lhe na mão, e a febre a deixou; e levantou-se, e serviu-os.
He touched her hand and the fever left her: and then she rose and waited upon Him.
16 E, chegada a tarde, trouxeram-lhe muitos endemoninhados, e com a palavra expulsou d'elles os espiritos malignos, e curou todos os que estavam enfermos;
In the evening many demoniacs were brought to Him, and with a word He expelled the demons; and He cured all the sick,
17 Para que se cumprisse o que fôra dito pelo propheta Isaias, que diz: Elle tomou sobre si as nossas enfermidades, e levou as nossas doenças.
in order that this prediction of the Prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled, "He took on Him our weaknesses, and bore the burden of our diseases."
18 E Jesus, vendo em torno de si uma grande multidão, ordenou que passassem para a banda d'alem;
Seeing great crowds about Him Jesus had given directions to cross to the other side of the Lake,
19 E, approximando-se d'elle um escriba, disse-lhe: Mestre, aonde quer que fores, eu te seguirei.
when a Scribe came and said to Him, "Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go."
20 E disse Jesus: As raposas teem seus covis, e as aves do céu teem seus ninhos, mas o Filho do homem não tem onde reclinar a cabeça.
"Foxes have holes," replied Jesus, "and birds have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."
21 E outro de seus discipulos lhe disse: Senhor, permitte-me que primeiro vá sepultar meu pae.
Another of the disciples said to Him, "Sir, allow me first to go and bury my father."
22 Jesus, porém, disse-lhe: Segue-me, e deixa aos mortos sepultar os seus mortos.
"Follow me," said Jesus, "and leave the dead to bury their own dead."
23 E, entrando elle no barco, seus discipulos o seguiram;
Then He went on board a fishing-boat, and His disciples followed Him.
24 E eis que no mar se levantou uma tempestade tão grande que o barco era coberto pelas ondas; elle, porém, estava dormindo.
But suddenly there arose a great storm on the Lake, so that the waves threatened to engulf the boat; but He was asleep.
25 E os seus discipulos, approximando-se, o despertaram, dizendo: Senhor, salva-nos, que perecemos.
So they came and woke Him, crying, "Master, save us, we are drowning!"
26 E elle disse-lhes: Porque temeis, homens de pouca fé? Então, levantando-se, reprehendeu os ventos e o mar, e seguiu-se uma grande bonança.
"Why are you so easily frightened," He replied, "you men of little faith?" Then He rose and reproved the winds and the waves, and there was a perfect calm;
27 E aquelles homens se maravilharam, dizendo: Quem é este, que até os ventos e o mar lhe obedecem?
and the men, filled with amazement, exclaimed, "What kind of man is this? for the very winds and waves obey him!"
28 E, tendo chegado á outra banda, á provincia dos gergesenos, sairam-lhe ao encontro dois endemoninhados, vindos dos sepulchros, tão ferozes que ninguem podia passar por aquelle caminho.
On His arrival at the other side, in the country of the Gadarenes, there met Him two men possessed by demons, coming from among the tombs: they were so dangerously fierce that no one was able to pass that way.
29 E eis que clamaram, dizendo: Que temos nós comtigo, Jesus Filho de Deus? Vieste aqui a atormentar-nos antes de tempo?
They cried aloud, "What hast Thou to do with us, Thou Son of God? Hast Thou come here to torment us before the time?"
30 E andava pastando distante d'elles uma manada de muitos porcos.
Now at some distance from them a vast herd of swine were feeding.
31 E os demonios rogaram-lhe, dizendo: Se nos expulsas, permitte-nos que entremos n'aquella manada de porcos.
So the demons entreated Him. "If Thou drivest us out," they said, "send us into the herd of swine."
32 E elle lhes disse: Ide. E, saindo elles, se introduziram na manada dos porcos; e eis que toda aquella manada de porcos se precipitou no mar por um despenhadeiro, e morreram nas aguas.
"Go," He replied. Then they came out from the men and went into the swine, whereupon the entire herd instantly rushed down the cliff into the Lake and perished in the water.
33 E os porqueiros fugiram, e, chegando á cidade, divulgaram todas aquellas coisas, e o que acontecera aos endemoninhados.
The swineherds fled, and went and told the whole story in the town, including what had happened to the demoniacs.
34 E eis que toda aquella cidade saiu ao encontro de Jesus, e, vendo-o, rogaram-lhe que se retirasse dos seus termos.
So at once the whole population came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they besought Him to leave their country.
