< Isaías 11 >
1 E uma vara brotará do tronco cortado de Jessé; e um ramo crescerá de suas raízes.
[Like] [MET] a [new] shoot [often] grows from the stump [of a tree], there will be a descendant of King David who will be a new king.
2 E repousará sobre ele o Espírito do SENHOR: o Espírito de sabedoria e de entendimento, o Espírito de conselho e força, o Espírito de conhecimento e temor ao SENHOR.
The Spirit of Yahweh will always be with him. The Spirit will enable him to be wise and to understand [much about many things]. The Spirit will enable him to decide what is good to do, and will enable him to be very powerful. The Spirit will enable him to know Yahweh and to revere him.
3 E seu prazer será no temor ao SENHOR; e não julgará segundo a vista de seus olhos, nem repreenderá segundo o ouvir de seus ouvidos.
He will be glad to obey Yahweh. He will not decide [whether someone is righteous or not only] by seeing what that person looks like, or by listening to [what others say about that person].
4 Mas julgará com justiça aos pobres, e repreenderá com equidade aos humildes da terra; porém ferirá a terra com a vara de sua boca, e com o espírito de seus lábios matará ao perverso.
He will judge [the cases of] needy people fairly; and he will act justly toward poor people. He will punish evil people as a result of what he decides [MTY]; he will get rid of wicked people because of [MTY] [their behavior].
5 E a justiça será o cinto de sua cintura; a fidelidade o cinto de seus lombos.
He will always act righteously; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a belt [around his waist]. He will always speak what is true; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a sash [around his waist].
6 E o lobo morará com o cordeiro, e o leopardo se deitará com o cabrito; e o bezerro, o filhote de leão, e o animal cevado [andarão] juntos, e um menino pequeno os guiará.
[When he becomes king], wolves and lambs will live together [peacefully]; leopards, [instead of killing] baby goats, will lie down with them. [Similarly], calves and lions will eat food together; and a young child will take care of them.
7 A vaca e a ursa se alimentarão juntas, seus filhos [juntos] se deitarão; e o leão comerá palha como o boi.
Cows and bears will eat [together]; bear cubs and calves will lie down together. Lions will [not eat other animals]; [instead], they will eat hay like cows do.
8 A criança que ainda mama brincará sobre a toca da serpente, e a que for desmamada porá sua mão na cova da víbora.
Babies will play [safely] near the holes where cobra snakes [live]; small children will [even] put their hands into nests of poisonous snakes, [and the snakes will not harm them].
9 Não se fará mal nem dano algum em todo o meu santo monte, porque a terra se encherá do conhecimento do SENHOR, como as águas cobrem o mar.
No creatures will harm or kill other creatures on [Zion Hill], my holy hill; and the earth will [be filled with people who] know Yahweh like [SIM] the seas are full of water.
10 E acontecerá naquele dia, que as nações buscarão a raiz de Jessé, posta como bandeira dos povos; e seu repouso será glorioso.
At that time, a descendant of King David will [hold up] a flag to signal to the people of all people-groups [that they should gather around him]; they will come to him to get his advice, and the place where he lives will be glorious.
11 E acontecerá naquele dia, que o Senhor voltará a pôr sua mão para adquirir de novo aos restantes de seus povo, que restarem da Assíria, do Egito, Patros, Cuxe, Elão, Sinear, Hamate, e das ilhas do mar.
At that time, Yahweh will (reach out his hand/use his power) as he did long ago; he will enable those who had been (exiled from/forced to leave) Israel to return home, from Assyria, from northern Egypt, from southern Egypt, from Ethiopia, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath, and from all the distant countries near the sea.
12 E levantará uma bandeira entre as nações, e juntará aos desterrados de Israel, e reunirá aos dispersos de Judá desde os quatro confins da terra.
Yahweh will raise his flag among [all] the people-groups, and he will gather together the people of Israel who had been exiled [long ago]. He will gather from very distant places [IDM] on the earth the people of Judah who [(had been scattered to/are living in) those places].
13 E a inveja de Efraim terminará, e os adversários de Judá serão cortados; Efraim não invejará a Judá, e Judá não oprimirá a Efraim.
[Then], the people of Israel and the people of Judah will not be jealous of each other [any longer], and they will no [longer] be enemies of each other.
14 Em vez disso, voarão sobre os ombros dos filisteus ao ocidente, e juntos despojarão aos do oriente; porão suas mãos [sobre] Edom e Moabe, e os filhos de Amom lhes obedecerão.
Their [armies] will [join together to] attack the people of Philistia to the west. And together they will attack nations to the east; they will [defeat those nations and] take away all their valuable possessions. They will capture [the areas of] Edom and Moab, and the people of the Ammon people-group will be controlled/ruled by the people of Israel and Judah.
15 E o SENHOR dividirá a porção de mar do Egito, e moverá sua mão contra o rio com a força de seu vento; e o ferirá em sete correntes, e fará com que se possa atravessá-lo com sandálias.
Yahweh will make a dry road through the sea near Egypt. And [it will be as though] he will wave his hand over the [Euphrates] River and send a strong wind to cause it to divide into seven streams, with the result that people will be able to walk across [those streams].
16 E haverá um caminho para os restantes de seu povo, que restarem da Assíria, assim como aconteceu a Israel, no dia em que subiu da terra do Egito.
And because he will make a highway for his people who are living in Assyria, they will be able to return [to their own land], just like [long ago] he made a path for [the people of] Israel [so that they could go through the water] when they left Egypt.
