Isaiah 3
1 For the Lord, the Lord of armies, is about to take away from Jerusalem and from Judah all their support; their store of bread and of water;
Porque, eis que o Senhor Deus dos Exercitos tirará de Jerusalem e de Judah o bordão e o cajado: a todo o sustento de pão, e a toda a borda d'agua;
2 The strong man and the man of war; the judge and the prophet; the man who has knowledge of secret arts, and the man who is wise because of his years;
Ao valente, e ao soldado, ao juiz, e ao propheta, e ao adivinho, e ao ancião,
3 The captain of fifty, and the man of high position, and the wise guide, and the wonder-worker, and he who makes use of secret powers.
Ao capitão de cincoenta, e ao respeitavel, e ao conselheiro, e ao sabio entre os artifices, e ao eloquente.
4 And I will make children their chiefs, and foolish ones will have rule over them.
E dar-lhes-hei mancebos por principes, e creanças dominarão sobre elles.
5 And the people will be crushed, every one by his neighbour; the young will be full of pride against the old, and those of low position will be lifted up against the noble.
E o povo será opprimido; um será contra o outro, e cada um contra o seu proximo: o menino se atreverá contra o ancião, e o vil contra o nobre.
6 When one man puts his hand on another in his father's house, and says, You have clothing, be our ruler and be responsible for us in our sad condition:
Quando algum travar de seu irmão da casa de seu pae, dizendo: Capa tens, sê nosso principe, e toma sob a tua mão esta ruina;
7 Then he will say with an oath, I will not be a helper, for in my house there is no bread or clothing: I will not let you make me a ruler of the people.
Então levantará a sua voz n'aquelle dia, dizendo: Não posso ser medico, nem tão pouco ha em minha casa pão, nem vestido algum: não me ponhaes por principe do povo.
8 For Jerusalem has become feeble, and destruction has come on Judah, because their words and their acts are against the Lord, moving the eyes of his glory to wrath.
Porque tropeçou Jerusalem, e Judah é caido; porquanto a sua lingua e as suas obras são contra o Senhor, para irritarem os olhos da sua gloria.
9 Their respect for a man's position is a witness against them; and their sin is open to the view of all; like that of Sodom, it is not covered. A curse on their soul! for the measure of their sin is full.
A apparencia das suas faces testifica contra elles; e publicam os seus peccados como Sodoma; não os dissimulam: ai da sua alma! porque se fazem mal a si mesmos.
10 Happy is the upright man! for he will have joy of the fruit of his ways.
Dizem ao justo que bem lhe irá; que comerão do fructo das suas obras.
11 Unhappy is the sinner! for the reward of his evil doings will come on him.
Ai do impio! mal lhe irá: porque o galardão das suas mãos se lhe dará.
12 As for my people, their ruler is acting like a child, and those who have authority over them are women. O my people, your guides are the cause of your wandering, turning your footsteps out of the right way.
Os exactores do meu povo são creanças, e mulheres dominam sobre elle: ah, povo meu! os que te guiam te enganam, e devoram o caminho das tuas veredas.
13 The Lord is ready to take up his cause against his people, and is about to come forward as their judge.
O Senhor se apresenta a pleitear, e se põe a julgar os povos.
14 The Lord comes to be the judge of their responsible men and of their rulers: it is you who have made waste the vine-garden, and in your houses is the property of the poor which you have taken by force.
O Senhor vem em juizo contra os anciãos do seu povo, e contra os seus principes; porque vós consumistes esta vinha, o despojo do afflicto está em vossas casas.
15 By what right are you crushing my people, and putting a bitter yoke on the necks of the poor? This is the word of the Lord, the Lord of armies.
Que tendes vós, que atropellaes o meu povo e moeis as faces dos afflictos? diz o Senhor, o Deus dos Exercitos.
16 Again, the Lord has said, Because the daughters of Zion are full of pride, and go with outstretched necks and wandering eyes, with their foot-chains sounding when they go:
Diz ainda mais o Senhor: Porquanto as filhas de Sião se exalçam, e andam com o pescoço emproado, fazendo acenos com os olhos, e, indo andando, andam como dançando, e cascavelando com os pés
17 The Lord will send disease on the heads of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will let their secret parts be seen.
Portanto o Senhor fará calva a mioleira das filhas de Sião, e o Senhor descobrirá as suas vergonhas.
18 In that day the Lord will take away the glory of their foot-rings, and their sun-jewels, and their moon-ornaments,
N'aquelle dia tirará o Senhor o enfeite das ligas, e as redezinhas, e as luetas,
19 The ear-rings, and the chains, and the delicate clothing,
Os pendentes, e as manilhas, e os vestidos resplandecentes,
20 The head-bands, and the arm-chains, and the worked bands, and the perfume-boxes, and the jewels with secret powers,
Os diademas, e os enfeites dos braços, e os cendaes, e as bocetas cheirosas, e as arrecadas,
21 The rings, and the nose-jewels,
Os anneis, e as joias pendentes do nariz,
22 The feast-day dresses, and the robes, and the wide skirts, and the handbags,
Os vestidos de festa, e os mantos, e as coifas, e os alfinetes,
23 The looking-glasses, and the fair linen, and the high head-dresses, and the veils.
Os espelhos, e as capinhas de linho finissimas, e as toucas, e os véus.
24 And in the place of sweet spices will be an evil smell, and for a fair band a thick cord; for a well-dressed head there will be the cutting-off of the hair, and for a beautiful robe there will be the clothing of sorrow; the mark of the prisoner in place of the ornaments of the free.
E será que em logar de cheiro suave haverá fedor; e por cinto uma corda; e em logar d'encrespadura de cabellos, calva; e em logar de veste larga, cingimento de sacco; e queimadura em logar de formosura.
25 Your men will be put to the sword, and your men of war will come to destruction in the fight.
Teus varões cairão á espada, e teus valentes na peleja.
26 And in the public places of her towns will be sorrow and weeping; and she will be seated on the earth, waste and uncovered.
E as suas portas gemerão e prantearão; e ella, ficando desolada, se assentará no chão.
