Atos 28
1 E tendo sobrevivido, então souberam que a ilha se chamava Malta.
And being got safe to land, they then knew that the island was called Melita.
2 E os nativos demonstraram para conosco uma benevolência incomum; porque, tendo acendido uma fogueira, recolheram a nós todos, por causa da chuva que estava caindo, e por causa do frio.
And the barbarians treated us with uncommon humanity; for having kindled a fire, they brought us all to it, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.
3 E tendo Paulo recolhido uma quantidade de gravetos, e pondo-os no fogo, saiu uma víbora do calor, e fixou [os dentes] na mão dele.
Now, as Paul was gathering up a bundle of sticks, and laying them on the fire, a viper coming out of the heat, fastened upon his hand.
4 E quando os nativos vieram o animal pendurado na mão dele, disseram uns aos outros: Certamente este homem é assassino, ao qual, tendo sobrevivido do mar, a justiça não o deixa viver.
And as soon as the barbarians saw the fierce animal hanging on his hand, they said one to another, This man is certainly a murderer, whom justice has not permitted to live, though he be saved from the sea.
5 Porém, ele, tendo sacudido o animal ao fogo, sofreu nenhum mal.
But he, shaking off the fierce animal into the fire, suffered no evil.
6 E eles esperavam que ele fosse inchar, ou cair morto de repente. Mas tendo esperado muito, e vendo que nenhum incômodo tinha lhe sobrevindo, mudaram [de opinião], e diziam que ele era um deus.
However, they expected that he should have swollen, or suddenly have fallen down dead: and having waited a considerable time, and seeing no mischief befall him, changing their minds, they said he was a god.
7 E perto daquele mesmo lugar o homem mais importante da ilha, por nome Públio, tinha algumas propriedades; o qual nos recebeu e nos hospedou por três dias gentilmente.
And in the neighborhood of that place, there was the estate of the chief of the island, whose name was Publius; who, having received us into his house, entertained us in a courteous manner for three days.
8 E aconteceu que o pai de Públio estava de cama, doente de febres e disenteria; ao qual Paulo entrou, e tendo orado, pôs as mãos sobre ele, e o curou.
And so it was, that the father of Publius, being seized with a fever and bloody flux, was confined to his bed: to whom Paul going in, and having prayed, laid his hands on him, and healed him.
9 Tendo então isto acontecido, também vieram a ele outros que tinham enfermidades, e foram curados;
Now, therefore, when this miracle was wrought, the rest also, who had disorders, in the island, came, and were healed.
10 Os quais nos honraram com muitas honras; e estando [nós] para navegar, [nos] entregaram as coisas necessárias.
Who also honored us with great honors; and when we departed, put on board such things as were necessary.
11 E três meses depois, nós partimos em um navio de Alexandria, que tinha passado o inverno na ilha; o qual tinha como símbolo os gêmeos Castor e Pólux.
And after three months, we departed in a ship of Alexandria, that had wintered in the island, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.
12 E chegando a Siracusa, ficamos [ali] três dias.
And being arrived at Syracuse, we continued there three days.
13 De onde, tendo indo ao redor da costa, chegamos a Régio; e um dia depois, ventando ao sul, viemos o segundo dia a Putéoli.
From thence we coasted round, and came over against Rhegium. And after one day the south wind arising, we came, in two days, to Puteoli:
14 Onde, tendo achado [alguns] irmãos, eles nos rogaram que ficássemos com eles por sete dias; e assim viemos a Roma.
where we found brethren, and were entreated to stay with them seven days: and so we went for Rome.
15 E os irmãos, ao ouvirem [notícias] sobre nós, desde lá nos saíram ao encontro até a praça de Ápio, e as três tavernas; e Paulo, tendo os visto, agradeceu a Deus, e tomou coragem.
And from thence, the brethren, having heard of our affairs, came out to meet us, as far as Apii Forum, and the Three Taverns: whom, when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage.
16 E quando chegamos a Roma, a Paulo foi permitido morar por si mesmo à parte, junto com o soldado que o guardava.
And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the band: but Paul was permitted to dwell apart, in a house of his own, with a soldier that guarded him.
17 E aconteceu que, três dias depois, Paulo chamou juntos os chefes dos judeus; e ao se reunirem, disse-lhes: Homens irmãos, tendo eu nada feito contra o povo, ou contra os costumes dos pais, [mesmo assim] eu vim preso desde Jerusalém, entregue em mãos dos romanos.
And it came to pass, that, after three days, Paul called together those that were the chief of the Jews. And when they were come together, he said to them, Brethren, though I have done nothing contrary to the people, nor to our paternal customs, yet I was delivered a prisoner, from Jerusalem, into the hands of the Romans;
18 Os quais, tendo me investigado, queriam [me] soltar, por não haver em mim nenhum crime de morte.
who, having examined me, were willing to have set me at liberty, as there was no cause of death in me.
19 Mas os judeus, dizendo em contrário, eu fui forçado a apelar a César; [mas] não como que eu tenha que acusar a minha nação.
But when the Jews opposed, I was obliged to appeal to Cesar; not as having anything of which to accuse my own nation.
20 Então por esta causa eu vos chamei até mim, para [vos] ver e falar; porque pela esperança de Israel eu estou agora preso nesta corrente.
For this reason, therefore, I entreated, that I might see and speak with you; for on account of the hope of Israel, I am bound with this chain.
21 Mas eles lhe disseram: Nós nem recebemos cartas da Judeia relacionadas a ti, nem algum dos irmãos, tendo vindo aqui, tem nos informado ou falado de ti algum mal.
And they said to him, We have neither received letters from Judea concerning you; nor have any of the brethren, that have come hither, related, or said, any evil concerning you.
22 Mas nós queríamos ouvir de ti o que tu pensas; porque, quanto a esta seita, conhecemos que em todo lugar [há quem] fale contra ela.
But we desire to hear from you, what you think; for as concerning this sect, we know that it everywhere spoken against.
23 E tendo eles lhe determinado um dia, muitos vieram até onde ele estava morando; aos quais ele declarava e dava testemunho do Reino de Deus; e procurava persuadi-los quanto a Jesus, tanto pela Lei de Moisés, como [pelos] profetas, desde a manhã até a tarde.
And having appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging; to whom he expounded, testifying the kingdom of God, and persuading them of the things that relate to Jesus; both from the law of Moses and the prophets, from morning till evening.
24 E alguns criam nas coisas que ele dizia; mas outros não criam.
And some were persuaded by the things which were spoken; and some believed not.
25 E estando discordantes entre si, despediram-se, tendo Paulo disto [esta] palavra: O Espírito Santo corretamente falou a nossos pais por meio de Isaías o profeta,
And disagreeing with each other, they broke up the assembly: Paul saying this one word, Surely, well did the Holy Spirit speak, by Isaiah the prophet, to our fathers,
26 Dizendo: Vai a este povo, e dize: De fato ouvireis, mas de maneira nenhuma entendereis; e de fato vereis, mas de maneira nenhuma enxergareis.
when he said, "Go to this people and say, Hearing you will hear, and will not understand; and seeing you will see, and will not perceive:
27 Porque o coração deste povo está insensível, seus ouvidos ouvem com dificuldade, e seus olhos estão fechados; para que em maneira nenhuma vejam com os olhos, nem ouçam com os ouvidos, nem entendam com o coração, e se convertam, e eu os cure.
for the heart of this people is become gross, and with their ears they hear heavily; and they have drawn their eyes together, lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them."
28 Portanto seja conhecido por vós que a salvação de Deus foi enviada aos gentios; e eles [a] ouvirão.
Therefore be it known to you, that the salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it.
And when he had said these things, the Jews departed, having great debates among themselves.
30 E Paulo ficou dois anos inteiros em sua própria casa alugada; e recebia a todos quantos vinham a ele;
But Paul continued two whole years in his own hired house, and received all who came to him;
31 Pregando o Reino de Deus, e ensinando com ousadia a doutrina do Senhor Jesus Cristo, sem impedimento algum.
announcing the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which relate to the Lord Jesus Christ, with all freedom of speech, and without any restraint.
