< Isaías 6 >
1 No ano em que o rei Uzziah morreu, eu vi o Senhor sentado em um trono, alto e erguido; e seu trem encheu o templo.
During the year that King Uzziah died, [Yahweh showed me a vision. In the vision], I saw Yahweh sitting on a throne, high above everyone. He [was wearing a very long] robe that covered [the floor of] the temple.
2 Acima dele estava o serafim. Cada um tinha seis asas. Com duas ele cobriu seu rosto. Com duas cobriu seus pés. Com dois ele voou.
Above him were standing [several] winged creatures. Each of them had six wings. They covered their faces with two of their wings, they covered their feet with two of their wings, and they flew using two of their wings.
3 Um chamou o outro, e disse, “Santo, santo, santo, é o Yahweh dos Exércitos! A terra inteira está cheia de sua glória”!
They were calling to each other, saying, “The Commander of the armies of angels is holy; he is completely holy! The entire earth is filled with his glory.”
4 Os alicerces das soleiras tremeram com a voz daquele que ligou, e a casa ficou cheia de fumaça.
When they spoke, it caused the doorposts of the temple to shake, and the temple was filled with smoke.
5 Então eu disse: “Ai de mim! Pois estou desfeito, porque sou um homem de lábios impuros e vivo entre um povo de lábios impuros, pois meus olhos viram o Rei, Yahweh dos Exércitos”!
Then I said, “Terrible things will happen to me, because everything that I say [MTY] is sinful, and I live among people who constantly say [MTY] sinful things. I will be destroyed because I have seen the Commander of the armies of angels!”
6 Então um dos serafins voou até mim, tendo na mão um carvão vivo, que ele havia tirado com a pinça do altar.
Then one of the winged creatures took a hot coal from the altar, using a pair of tongs. He flew to me
7 Ele tocou minha boca com ela, e disse: “Eis que isto tocou seus lábios; e sua iniqüidade foi tirada, e seu pecado perdoado”.
and touched my lips with the coal. Then he said, “Look [at what I have done]. I have touched your lips [with this coal]. [Now] your guilt is ended, and your sins are forgiven [DOU].”
8 Ouvi a voz do Senhor, dizendo: “A quem enviarei e quem irá por nós”? Então eu disse: “Aqui estou eu”. Mande-me”!
Then I heard Yahweh asking, “Whom shall I send [to be a messenger to my people]? Who will go [and speak] for us?” I replied, “I will. Send me!”
9 Ele disse: “Vá, e diga a esta gente”, Você ouve, de fato, mas não entendem. De fato, você vê, mas não percebe”.
Then he said, “[Okay], go, and say to the [Israeli] people, ‘You will listen carefully [to what I say], but you will not understand it. You will look very carefully [at the things that I am doing], but you will not understand them.’
10 Engordar o coração deste povo. Deixar seus ouvidos pesados e fechar os olhos; para que eles não vejam com os olhos, ouvem com seus ouvidos, compreender com o coração, e voltar atrás, e ser curado”.
[What you(sg) say will] cause these people to become stubborn [IDM]; [it will cause them] to not be able to hear [what I say] and see [what I do]. [As a result, they will not] see [what I want them to see] or hear [what I want them to hear], and they will not understand it, and they will not turn to me and be saved [from being punished].”
11 Então eu disse: “Senhor, quanto tempo?” Ele respondeu, “Até que as cidades sejam resíduos sem habitantes”, casas sem homem, a terra se torna um desperdício total,
Then I said, “How long [do you want me to continue to do that]?” He replied, “[Do it] until their cities are ruined [by their enemies], [until] no one is living in their houses, [do it until] all the crops are stolen from their fields and the fields are ruined.
12 e Yahweh afastou os homens para longe, e os lugares abandonados são muitos dentro da terra.
[Do it] until I have (exiled everyone/forced everyone to go to their enemies’ lands) far away, and the whole land [of Israel] is deserted.
13 Se ainda restar um décimo nele, que, por sua vez, também será consumida, como um terebinto, e como um carvalho cujo toco permanece quando são cortados, assim a semente santa é seu toco”.
If [even] one tenth [of the people survive and] stay there, [their enemies] will [invade the land again and] burn everything. [But, just] like [MET] when an oak [tree] is cut down, a stump is left [from which new shoots will grow], the people who remain [in this land will be a group that will become large again] and be (set apart for/dedicated to) me.”
