Deuteronômio 29
1 Estas são as palavras do pacto que o SENHOR mandou que Moisés fizesse com os filhos de Israel na terra de Moabe, além do pacto que estabeleceu com eles em Horebe.
These are the things that the Israelis were required to do to keep the agreement that Yahweh was making with them. Moses/I commanded them to keep this agreement [when they/we were] in the Moab region [on the east side of the Jordan River]. This was in addition to the agreement that Yahweh had made with them/us at Sinai [Mountain].
2 Moisés, pois, chamou a todo Israel, e disse-lhes: Vós vistes tudo o que o SENHOR fez diante vossos olhos na terra do Egito a Faraó e a todos os seus servos, e a toda sua terra:
Moses/I summoned all the Israeli people and said to them, “You saw [SYN] for yourselves what Yahweh did to the king of Egypt and to his officials and to his entire country.
3 As provas grandes que viram teus olhos, o sinais, e as grandes maravilhas.
You [SYN] saw all the plagues [that Yahweh caused them to experience], and all the various miracles [DOU] [that Yahweh performed].
4 E o SENHOR não vos deu coração para entender, nem olhos para ver, nem ouvidos para ouvir, até o dia de hoje.
But until now, Yahweh has not enabled you to understand [the meaning of] all that you have seen and heard.
5 E eu vos trouxe quarenta anos pelo deserto: vossas roupas não se hão envelhecido sobre vós, nem teu sapato se envelheceu sobre teu pé.
For 40 years Yahweh has led you while you traveled/walked through the desert. During that time, your clothes and your sandals have not worn out.
6 Não comestes pão, nem bebestes vinho nem bebida forte: para que soubestes que eu sou o SENHOR vosso Deus.
You did not have bread to eat or wine or other fermented/strong drinks to drink, but Yahweh [took care of you], in order that you would know that he is your God.
7 E chegastes a este lugar, e saiu Seom rei de Hesbom, e Ogue rei de Basã, diante de nós para lutar, e os ferimos;
“And when we came to this place, Sihon, the king who ruled in Heshbon [city], and Og, the king who ruled the Bashan [region], came [with their armies] to attack us, but we defeated them.
8 E tomamos sua terra, e a demos por herança a Rúben e a Gade, e à meia tribo de Manassés.
We took/conquered their land and divided it among the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh.
9 Guardareis, pois, as palavras deste pacto, e as poreis por obra, para que prospereis em tudo o que fizerdes.
“So faithfully keep all of this agreement, in order that you will be successful in everything that you do.
10 Vós todos estais hoje diante do SENHOR vosso Deus; vossos príncipes de vossas tribos, vossos anciãos, e vossos oficiais, todos os homens de Israel,
Today all of us are standing in the presence of Yahweh our God. The leaders of all our tribes, our elders, our officials, all you Israeli men,
11 Vossas crianças, vossas mulheres, e teus estrangeiros que habitam em meio de teu campo, desde o que corta tua lenha até o que tira tuas águas:
your wives, your children, and the foreigners who live among you and cut wood for you and carry water for you, are here.
12 Para que entres no pacto do SENHOR teu Deus, e em seu juramento, que o SENHOR teu Deus estabelece hoje contigo:
[We are here] today to promise to keep this solemn agreement with Yahweh.
13 Para te confirmar hoje por seu povo, e que ele seja a ti por Deus, da maneira que ele te disse, e como ele jurou a teus pais Abraão, Isaque, e Jacó.
[He is making this agreement with you] in order to confirm that you are his people, and that he is your God. This agreement is what he promised you, and which is what he vowed to give to your ancestors Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
14 E não somente convosco estabeleço eu este pacto e este juramento,
This agreement is not only with you.
15 Mas, sim, com os que estão aqui presentes hoje conosco diante do SENHOR nosso Deus, e com os que não estão aqui hoje conosco.
He is making this agreement with us [who are here today] and also with our descendants who are not yet born.
16 Porque vós sabeis como habitamos na terra do Egito, e como passamos por meio das nações que passastes;
“You remember [the things that our ancestors suffered] in Egypt, and how they traveled through the land that belonged to other nations [after they came out of Egypt].
17 E vistes suas abominações e seus ídolos, madeira e pedra, prata e ouro, que têm consigo.
In those countries they saw those disgusting idols made of wood and stone and [decorated with] silver and gold.
18 Para que não haja entre vós homem, ou mulher, ou família, ou tribo, cujo coração se volte hoje de com o SENHOR nosso Deus, por andar a servir aos deuses daquelas nações; que não haja em vós raiz que lance veneno e amargura;
So be sure that no man or woman or family or tribe that is here [today] turns away from Yahweh our God, to worship/serve the gods of those nations. Doing that would be like a root [of a plant that would grow] among you and bear poisonous and bitter fruit [MET].
19 E seja que, quando o tal ouvir as palavras desta maldição, ele se abençoe em seu coração, dizendo: Terei paz, ainda que ande segundo o pensamento de meu coração, para acrescentar a embriaguez à sede:
“Be sure that no one here today who hears this agreement thinks, ‘Everything will go well with me, even if I stubbornly do what I want to.’ If you are stubborn like that, the result will be that Yahweh will eventually get rid of all of you, both good people and evil people [MET].
20 O SENHOR se recusará a lhe perdoar; antes fumegará logo o furor do SENHOR e seu zelo sobre o tal homem, e se assentará sobre ele toda maldição escrita neste livro, e o SENHOR apagará seu nome de debaixo do céu:
Yahweh will not forgive anyone who is [stubborn] like that. Instead, he will be extremely angry [DOU] with that person, and that person will experience all the curses that I have told you about, until Yahweh gets rid of that person and his family [IDM].
21 E o SENHOR o separará de todas as tribos de Israel para o mal, conforme todas as maldições do pacto escrito neste livro da lei.
From all the tribes of Israel, Yahweh will separate that individual. Yahweh will cause him to experience all the disasters that I have listed in the agreement that states the things that Yahweh will do to curse [those who disobey] the laws [that I have written] in this scroll/book.
22 E dirá a geração vindoura, vossos filhos que virão depois de vós, e o estrangeiro que virá de distantes terras, quando virem as pragas desta terra, e suas enfermidades de que o SENHOR a fez enfermar,
“In the future, your descendants and people from other countries will see the disasters and the illnesses that Yahweh has caused to happen to you.
23 (Enxofre e sal, abrasada toda sua terra: não será semeada, nem produzirá, nem crescerá nela erva nenhuma, como na destruição de Sodoma e de Gomorra, de Admá e de Zeboim, que o SENHOR destruiu em seu furor e em sua ira: )
They will see that all your land has been ruined by burning sulfur and salt. Nothing will have been planted. Not even weeds will grow there. Your land will resemble Sodom and Gomorrah [cities], and Admah and Zeboiim [cities], which Yahweh destroyed when he was very angry [DOU] [with the people who lived there].
24 Dirão, pois, todas as nações: Por que fez o SENHOR isto a esta terra? Que ira é esta de tão grande furor?
And the people from those other nations will ask, ‘Why did Yahweh do this to this land? Why was he very angry [with the people who lived here]?’
25 E responderão. Porquanto deixaram o pacto do SENHOR o Deus de seus pais, que ele estabeleceu com eles quando os tirou da terra do Egito,
“Then other people will reply, ‘It is because they refused to keep the agreement that Yahweh, the God whom their ancestors [worshiped], had made with them when he brought them out of Egypt.
26 E foram e serviram a deuses alheios, e inclinaram-se a eles, deuses que não conheciam, e que nenhuma coisa lhes haviam dado:
Instead, they served/worshiped other gods that they had never worshiped before, gods that Yahweh had told them not to worship.
27 Acendeu-se portanto, o furor do SENHOR contra esta terra, para trazer sobre ela todas as maldições escritas nesta livro;
So, Yahweh became very angry with the Israeli people in this land, and he caused them to experience all the disasters that their leader warned them about.
28 E o SENHOR os desarraigou de sua terra com ira, e com indignação, e com furor grande, e os expulsou a outra terra, como hoje.
Yahweh became extremely angry [DOU] with them and took/yanked them [MET] out of their land and banished them into another land, and they are still there.’
29 As coisas secretas pertencem ao SENHOR nosso Deus: mas as reveladas são para nós e para nossos filhos para sempre, para que cumpramos todas as palavras desta lei.
“[There are some] things that Yahweh our God has (kept secret/not revealed), but he has revealed his laws to us, and [he expects] us and our descendants to obey them forever.”
