Hebrews 11
1 Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.
Ora, a fé é o firme fundamento das coisas que se esperam, e a prova das coisas que se não vêem.
2 For by this, the elders obtained approval.
Porque por ella os antigos alcançaram testemunho.
3 By faith, we understand that the ages (aiōn g165) have been aligned by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible.
Pela fé entendemos que os seculos pela palavra de Deus foram creados; de maneira que as coisas que se vêem não foram feitas das que se viam. (aiōn g165)
4 By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he had testimony given to him that he was righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and through it he, being dead, still speaks.
Pela fé Abel offereceu a Deus maior sacrificio do que Caim, pela qual alcançou testemunho de que era justo, porquanto Deus deu testemunho dos seus dons, e, depois de morto, ainda falla por ella.
5 By faith Enoch was taken away, so that he would not see death, and he was not found, because God translated him. For he has had testimony given to him that before his translation he had been well pleasing to God.
Pela fé Enoch foi trasladado para não ver a morte, e não foi achado, porquanto Deus o trasladara; porque antes da sua trasladação alcançou testemunho de que agradava a Deus.
6 Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.
Ora, sem fé é impossivel agradar a Deus: porque é necessario que aquelle que se approxima de Deus creia que elle existe, e que é galardoador dos que o buscam.
7 By faith Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared a ship for the saving of his house, through which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.
Pela fé Noé, divinamente advertido das coisas que ainda se não viam, temeu, e, para salvação da sua familia, fabricou a arca, pela qual condemnou o mundo, e foi feito herdeiro da justiça que é segundo a fé.
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out to the place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he went.
Pela fé Abrahão, sendo chamado, obedeceu, para sair ao logar que havia de receber por herança; e saiu, sem saber para onde ia
9 By faith he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a land not his own, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise.
Pela fé habitou na terra da promessa, como em terra alheia, morando em cabanas com Isaac e Jacob, herdeiros com elle da mesma promessa.
10 For he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
Porque esperava a cidade que tem fundamentos, da qual o artifice e fabricador é Deus.
11 By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive, and she bore a child when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised.
Pela fé tambem a mesma Sarah recebeu a virtude de conceber, e deu á luz já fóra da edade; porquanto teve por fiel aquelle que lh'o tinha promettido.
12 Therefore as many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the sea shore, were fathered by one man, and him as good as dead.
Pelo que tambem de um, e esse já amortecido, nasceram em tão grande multidão como as estrellas do céu, e como a areia innumeravel que está na praia do mar.
13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and embraced them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
Todos estes morreram na fé, sem terem recebido as promessas; porém, vendo-as de longe, e crendo-as e abraçando-as, confessaram que eram estrangeiros e peregrinos na terra.
14 For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.
Porque os que isto dizem claramente mostram que buscam outra patria.
15 If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.
E se, na verdade, se lembrassem d'aquella d'onde haviam saido, teriam tempo de tornar para ella.
16 But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
Mas agora desejam uma melhor, isto é, a celestial. Pelo que tambem Deus se não envergonha d'elles, de se chamar seu Deus, porque já lhes apparelhou uma cidade.
17 By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his only born son,
Pela fé offereceu Abrahão a Isaac, quando foi provado; e aquelle que recebera as promessas offereceu o seu unigenito,
18 to whom it was said, “Your offspring will be accounted as from Isaac,”
Sendo-lhe dito: Em Isaac será chamada a tua descendencia; considerando que Deus era poderoso para até dos mortos o resuscitar.
19 concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.
Por onde tambem em similhança o tornou a recobrar.
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.
Pela fé Isaac abençoou Jacob e Esaú, no tocante ás coisas futuras.
21 By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.
Pela fé Jacob, proximo da morte, abençoou cada um dos filhos de José, e adorou encostado á ponta do seu bordão.
22 By faith Joseph, when his end was near, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel, and gave instructions concerning his bones.
Pela fé José, proximo da morte, fez menção da saida dos filhos de Israel, e deu ordem ácerca de seus ossos.
23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that he was a beautiful child; and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment.
Pela fé Moysés, já nascido, foi escondido tres mezes por seus paes, porque viram que era um formoso menino; e não temeram o mandamento do rei
24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter,
Pela fé Moysés, sendo já grande, recusou ser chamado filho da filha de Pharaó,
25 choosing rather to share ill treatment with God’s people than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time,
Escolhendo antes ser maltratado com o povo de Deus de que por um pouco de tempo ter o gozo do peccado;
26 considering the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.
Tendo por maiores riquezas o vituperio de Christo do que os thesouros do Egypto; porque tinha em vista a recompensa.
27 By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
Pela fé deixou o Egypto, não temendo a ira do rei; porque esteve firme, como vendo o invisivel.
28 By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.
Pela fé celebrou a paschoa e o derramamento de sangue, para que o destruidor dos primogenitos os não tocasse.
29 By faith they passed through the Red Sea as on dry land. When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up.
Pela fé passaram o Mar Vermelho, como por terra secca; o que intentando os egypcios, se afogaram.
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days.
Pela fé cairam os muros de Jericó, sendo sitiados durante sete dias.
31 By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, having received the spies in peace.
Pela fé Rahab, a meretriz, não pereceu com os incredulos, acolhendo em paz os espias.
32 What more shall I say? For the time would fail me if I told of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets—
E que mais direi? Faltar-me-hia o tempo, contando de Gideon, e de Barac, e de Sansão, e de Jefthe, e de David, e de Samuel e dos prophetas:
33 who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
Os quaes pela fé venceram reinos, exercitaram justiça, alcançaram promessas, fecharam as boccas dos leões,
34 quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, grew mighty in war, and caused foreign armies to flee.
Apagaram a força do fogo, escaparam do fio da espada, da fraqueza tiraram forças, na batalha se esforçaram, pozeram em fugida os exercitos dos estranhos.
35 Women received their dead by resurrection. Others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.
As mulheres tornaram a receber pela resurreição os seus mortos, e outros foram estirados, não acceitando o seu livramento, para alcançarem uma melhor resurreição.
36 Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment.
E outros experimentaram escarneos e açoites, e até cadeias e prisões;
37 They were stoned. They were sawn apart. They were tempted. They were slain with the sword. They went around in sheep skins and in goat skins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated—
Foram apedrejados, serrados, tentados, mortos ao fio da espada; andaram vestidos de pelles de ovelhas e de cabras, desamparados, afflictos e maltratados
38 of whom the world was not worthy—wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.
(Dos quaes o mundo não era digno), errantes pelos desertos, e montes, e covas e cavernas da terra.
39 These all, having been commended for their faith, did not receive the promise,
E todos estes, tendo testemunho pela fé, não alcançaram a promessa:
40 God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
Provendo Deus alguma coisa melhor a nosso respeito, para que sem nós não fossem aperfeiçoados.
