Luke 17
1 [One day Jesus] said to his disciples, “Things that will tempt [people] to sin are certain to happen, but it will be terrible for anyone who causes them to happen!
E disse aos discipulos: É impossivel que não venham escandalos, mas ai d'aquelle por quem vierem!
2 Suppose you caused one of these people who [do not believe in me very strongly] to sin. If a huge stone was fastened {someone fastened a huge stone} around your neck and you were thrown {and threw you} into the sea, [you would consider that a severe punishment, but God will punish] you even more severely [if you cause someone to sin!]
Melhor lhe fôra que lhe pozessem ao pescoço uma mó de atafona, e fosse lançado ao mar, do que escandalizar um d'estes pequenos.
3 Be careful [how you act]. If you [know about] a fellow believer who sins, you [(sg)] should rebuke him. If he [says that he] is sorry for having sinned [and asks you to forgive him], forgive him.
Olhae por vós mesmos. E, se teu irmão peccar contra ti, reprehende-o, e, se elle se arrepender, perdoa-lhe.
4 Even if he sins against you [(sg)] seven times in one day, if he comes to you each time and says, ‘I am sorry for what I did’, you must continue forgiving him.”
E, se peccar contra ti sete vezes no dia, e sete vezes no dia tornar a ti, dizendo: Arrependo-me; perdoa-lhe.
5 [One day] the apostles said to the Lord, “Help us to trust [in you] (OR, [in God]) more strongly!”
Disseram então os apostolos ao Senhor: Accrescenta-nos a fé.
6 The Lord replied, “Mustard [seeds are very small, but in this area they grow and produce large] [MET] [plants]. [Similarly], if your faith grows until you truly believe that God [will do what you ask him to, you will be able to do anything]. You could [even] say to this mulberry tree, ‘Pull yourself out [with your roots] and plant yourself in the sea!’ and it would obey you!”
E disse o Senhor: Se tivesseis fé como um grão de mostarda, dirieis a esta amoreira: Desarreiga-te d'aqui, e planta-te no mar; e vos obedeceria.
7 [Jesus also said], “Suppose that one of you had a servant who was plowing [your fields] or taking care of your sheep. After he comes into the house from the field, you [(sg)] would not say [RHQ], ‘Sit down and eat immediately!’
E qual de vós terá um servo lavrando ou apascentando, e, voltando elle do campo, lhe diga: Chega-te, e assenta-te á mesa?
8 Instead, you would say to him, ‘Put on your apron and prepare a meal for me! Then serve it to me so that I can eat and drink! Afterwards you [(sg)] can eat and drink.’
E não lhe diga antes: Prepara-me a ceia, e cinge-te, e serve-me, até que tenha comido e bebido, e depois comerás e beberás tu?
9 (You will not thank your servant for doing the work that he had been told {you had told him} to do!/Would you thank your servant because he did the work that he had been told {you had told him} to do?) [RHQ]
Porventura dá graças ao tal servo, porque fez o que lhe foi mandado? Creio que não.
10 Similarly, when you [(pl)] have done everything that [God] has told you to do, you should say, ‘We [(inc)] are not worthy [of God thanking us] {[being thanked]}. We are only God’s servants. We have only done the things that he told us to do.’”
Assim tambem vós, quando fizerdes tudo o que vos fôr mandado, dizei: Somos servos inuteis, porque fizemos sómente o que deviamos fazer.
11 As [Jesus and his disciples] were walking along the road to Jerusalem, they were going through [the region] between Samaria and Galilee [districts].
E aconteceu que, indo elle a Jerusalem, passou pelo meio da Samaria e da Galilea;
12 As they entered one village, ten lepers came near the road. [Because lepers were not permitted to come near other people], they stood at some distance
E, entrando n'uma certa aldeia, sairam-lhe ao encontro dez homens leprosos, os quaes pararam de longe;
13 and called out, “Jesus, Master, pity us [and heal us]!”
E levantaram a voz, dizendo: Jesus, Mestre, tem misericordia de nós.
14 When he saw them, he said [to them], “Each of you should go and show yourself to a priest [in Jerusalem so that he can see if you are healed].” As they were going [there], they were healed.
E elle, vendo-os, disse-lhes: Ide, e mostrae-vos aos sacerdotes. E aconteceu que, indo elles, ficaram limpos.
15 Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God loudly.
E um d'elles, vendo que estava são, voltou glorificando a Deus em alta voz;
16 He [came to Jesus], prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet, and thanked him. This man was a Samaritan, [not a Jew].
E caiu aos seus pés, com o rosto em terra, dando-lhe graças: e este era samaritano.
17 Then Jesus said, “[I] healed ten [lepers] (I am disappointed that the other nine did not come back!/Where are the other nine?) [RHQ]
E, respondendo Jesus, disse: Não foram dez os limpos? E onde estão os nove?
18 I am disappointed [RHQ] that this non-Jewish man was the only one who returned to thank God; none of the others came back to me!”
Não houve quem voltasse a dar gloria a Deus senão este estrangeiro?
19 Then he said to the man, “Get up and continue on your journey. [God] [PRS] [has saved you and] healed you [(sg)] because you trusted [in me].”
E disse-lhe: Levanta-te, e vae; a tua fé te salvou.
20 [One day] Jesus was asked by [some] Pharisees [SYN] {[some] Pharisees [SYN] asked [Jesus]}, “When is God [going] to rule as king?” He replied, “God’s ruling [MET] is not something people will be able to see with their eyes.
E, interrogado pelos phariseos sobre quando havia de vir o reino de Deus, respondeu-lhes, e disse: O reino de Deus não vem com apparencia exterior.
21 And people will not be able to say, ‘Look! He is [ruling] here!’ Or ‘He is [ruling] over there!’ because, [contrary to what you think], God’s ruling is people’s inner beings (OR, is already happening among you).”
Nem dirão: Eil-o aqui, ou, Eil-o ali; porque eis que o reino de Deus está entre vós.
22 [Jesus] said to his disciples, “There will be a time when you will want to see [me] [MTY], the one who came from heaven, [ruling powerfully]. But you will not see that.
E disse aos discipulos: Dias virão em que desejareis vêr um dos dias do Filho do homem, e não o vereis.
23 [Some] people will say to you, ‘Look, [the Messiah] is over there!’ or [they will say] ‘Look, he is here!’ When they say that, do not believe them. Do not follow them [to go see the Messiah].
E dir-vos-hão: Eil-o aqui, ou, Eil-o ali está; não vades, nem os sigaes:
24 Because when the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, [everyone can see it. Similarly] [SIM], at the time [MTY] when [I], the one who came from heaven, come back again, [everyone will see me].
Porque, como o relampago, fuzilando de uma parte debaixo do céu, resplandece até á outra debaixo do céu, assim será tambem o Filho do homem no seu dia.
25 But before that happens, I must suffer in many ways (OR, very much). And I will be rejected by people {people will reject me}, [even though] they [have observed me doing good for people].
Mas primeiro convem que elle padeça muito, e seja reprovado por esta geração.
26 But when [I], the one who came from heaven, [come again, people] will be doing things just like people were doing at the time when [MTY] Noah [lived].
E, como aconteceu nos dias de Noé, assim será tambem nos dias do Filho do homem:
27 [At that time] people ate and drank [as usual], and they got married [as usual], up until the day when Noah [and his family] entered the big boat. But then the flood came and destroyed all those [who were not in the boat].
Comiam, bebiam, casavam e davam-se em casamento, até ao dia em que Noé entrou na arca, e veiu o diluvio, e os consumiu a todos.
28 Similarly, when Lot lived [in Sodom city], people [there] ate and drank [as usual]. They bought things and they sold things. They planted [crops] and they built [houses as usual].
Como tambem da mesma maneira aconteceu nos dias de Lot: comiam, bebiam, compravam, vendiam, plantavam e edificavam.
29 But on the day that Lot [and his family] left Sodom, fire and [burning] sulfur came down from the sky and destroyed all those [who stayed in the city].
Mas no dia em que Lot saiu de Sodoma, choveu do céu fogo e enxofre, e os consumiu a todos.
30 Similarly, when [I], the one who came from heaven, return to earth, [people will be unprepared] (OR, [enjoying normal life]).
Assim será no dia em que o Filho do homem se ha de manifestar.
31 On that day, those who are outside their houses, with all the things that they own inside [the houses], must not go [in] to take them away, [because there will not be enough time to do that]. Similarly, those who are working in a field must not go back home [to get anything]; [they must flee immediately].
N'aquelle dia, quem estiver no telhado, e as suas alfaias em casa, não desça a tomal-as; e, da mesma sorte, o que estiver no campo não volte para traz.
32 Remember Lot’s wife! [Because she turned back and wanted to get some of her things from Sodom, she died immediately and became a pillar of salt].
Lembrae-vos da mulher de Lot.
33 Anyone who wants to hold onto his life [and his possessions] will not [receive eternal] life. But anyone who is [willing to] die [for my sake] will live [eternally].
Qualquer que procurar salvar a sua vida perdel-a-ha, e qualquer que a perder salval-a-ha.
34 I tell you this: On the night [when I return], there will be two people [sleeping] in one bed. The one [who believes in me] will be taken {[God] will take the one [who believes in me]} [to heaven], and the other one will be left [behind and punished] {and [he] will leave the other one [behind and punish him]}.
Digo-vos que n'aquella noite estarão dois n'uma cama; um será tomado, e outro será deixado.
35 Two women will be grinding grain together; one will be taken and the other left {[God] will take one and leave the other} [behind].”
Duas estarão juntas, moendo; uma será tomada, e outra será deixada.
Dois estarão no campo; um será tomado, o outro será deixado.
37 [His disciples] said to him, “Lord, where [will this happen]?” He replied to them, “Wherever there is an animal carcass, the vultures will gather [to eat it] [MET]. [Similarly, wherever there are people who are spiritually dead, God will punish them].”
E, respondendo, disseram-lhe: Onde, Senhor? E elle lhes disse: Onde estiver o corpo, ahi se ajuntarão as aguias.
