Ezequiel 35
1 E veio a mim a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:
Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
2 Filho do homem, dirige o teu rosto contra o monte de Seir, e profetiza contra ele.
“You human, turn toward Edom and prophesy what will happen to its people. Say that this is what Yahweh says to them:
3 E dize-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Eis que eu estou contra ti, ó monte de Seir, e estenderei a minha mão contra ti, e te porei em assolação e espanto.
‘You who live near Seir Mountain [in Edom], I am opposed to you, and I will use my power [MTY] to strike you and cause your country to become a wasteland.
4 As tuas cidades porei em solidão, e tu te tornarás em assolação; e saberás que eu sou o Senhor.
I will cause your country to be ruined and desolate. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
5 Porquanto guardas inimizade perpétua, e fizeste derramar os filhos de Israel pela violência da espada no tepmo da extrema iniquidade,
You have always been enemies of the Israeli people. You [rejoiced] when they experienced a great disaster: [their enemies attacked them with] swords, when I punished them [for the sins that they had committed].
6 Por isso vivo eu, diz o Senhor Jehovah, que te preparei para sangue, e o sangue te perseguirá; pois que não aborreceste o sangue, o sangue te perseguirá.
Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, I will allow [your enemies] to slaughter [MTY] you and continue to slaughter you. You were happy when [LIT] others were slaughtered;
7 E farei do monte de Seir uma extrema assolação, e exterminarei dele o que por ele passar, e o que por ele tornar.
so I will cause Seir Mountain to be abandoned/deserted, and I will get rid of anyone who enters it or leaves it.
8 E encherei os seus montes dos seus traspassados; nos teus outeiros, e nos teus vales, e em todas as tuas correntes cairão os traspassados à espada.
I will cause your mountains to be filled with [the corpses of] those who have been killed. The corpses of those who have been killed by [your enemies’] swords will lie on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines.
9 Em assolações perpétuas te porei, e as tuas cidades nunca mais serão habitadas: assim sabereis que eu sou o Senhor.
I will cause your land to be deserted forever. No one will live in your towns again. When that happens, you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
10 Porquanto dizes: Os dois povos e as duas terras serão minhas, e as possuiremos, sendo que o Senhor se achava ali,
You people said, “Israel and Judah will become ours. We will take over their territory!” You said that even though I, Yahweh, was still there [and protecting them].
11 Portanto, vivo eu, diz o Senhor Jehovah, que usarei conforme a tua ira, e conforme a tua inveja, de que usaste, com o teu ódio, contra eles; e serei conhecido deles, quando te julgar.
Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, I will punish [MTY] you for being angry with my people, envying them, and hating them.
12 E saberás que eu, o Senhor, ouvi todas as tuas blasfêmias, que disseste contra os montes de Israel, dizendo: Já estão assolados, a nós nos são entregues por pasto.
Then you will know that I, Yahweh, have heard all the disgusting things that you have said about the mountains in Israel. You said that they have been ruined/devastated, and that they have been given to you to occupy [MET].
13 Assim vos engrandecestes contra mim com a vossa boca, e multiplicastes as vossas palavras contra mim: eu o ouvi.
When you insulted me, I heard all that you said about me.
14 Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Quando se alegra toda a terra te porei em assolação.
So this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: You people who live on Seir Mountain and in all the other places in Edom, when I cause your land to become desolate, everyone in the entire world will rejoice.
15 Como te alegraste da herança da casa de Israel, porque está assolada, assim te farei a ti: em assolação serás tomado, ó monte de Seir, e todo o Edom, todo, digo; e saberão que eu sou o Senhor
You were happy when the land [MTY] of the Israeli people became desolate, so I will cause your land to become desolate. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
