Luke 3
1 NOW in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother tetrarch of Iturea and the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene:
E no anno quinze do imperio de Tiberio Cesar, sendo Poncio Pilatos presidente da Judea, Herodes tetrarcha da Galilea, e seu irmão Philippe tetrarcha da Iturea e da provincia de Traconites, e Lysaneas tetrarcha da Abylinia,
2 when Annas and Caiaphas were high-priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness;
Sendo Annás e Caiphás summos sacerdotes, veiu no deserto a palavra de Deus a João, filho de Zacharias.
3 and he came into all the country on the confines of Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
E percorreu toda a terra ao redor do Jordão, prégando o baptismo de arrependimento, para o perdão dos peccados;
4 as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet Isaiah, saying, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths strait:
Segundo o que está escripto no livro das palavras do propheta Isaias, que diz: Voz do que clama no deserto: Preparae o caminho do Senhor; endireitae as suas veredas.
5 every valley shall be filled up, and every mountain and hill shall be levelled, and the crooked ways made strait, and the rough roads smooth:
Todo o valle se encherá, e todo o monte e outeiro se abaixará; e os caminhos tortos se endireitarão, e os caminhos escabrosos se aplanarão;
6 and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.”
E toda a carne verá a salvação de Deus.
7 He said, therefore, to the multitudes who came out to be baptised by him, Ye broods of vipers, who hath warned you to fly from the approaching wrath?
Dizia pois João á multidão que sahia a ser baptizada por elle: Raça de viboras, quem vos ensinou a fugir da ira que está para vir?
8 Produce then fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say in yourselves, We have a father, even Abraham; for I say unto you, That God is able out of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
Dae pois fructos dignos de arrependimento, e não comeceis a dizer em vós mesmos: Temos Abrahão por pae; porque eu vos digo que até d'estas pedras pode Deus suscitar filhos a Abrahão.
9 But now is the ax laid even to the root of the trees; every tree therefore that produceth not good fruit, is cut down and cast into the fire.
E tambem já está posto o machado á raiz das arvores; toda a arvore, pois, que não dá bom fructo, corta-se e lança-se no fogo.
10 And the multitudes asked him, saying, What then shall we do?
E a multidão o interrogava, dizendo: Que faremos pois?
11 And he answering said to them, He that hath two coats, let him give to him that hath none; and he that hath provisions, let him do in like manner.
E, respondendo elle, disse-lhes: Quem tiver duas tunicas, reparta com o que não tem, e quem tiver alimentos faça da mesma maneira.
12 Then came also the farmers of the taxes to be baptised, and they said unto him, Master, what shall we do?
E chegaram tambem uns publicanos, para serem baptizados, e disseram-lhe: Mestre, que devemos fazer?
13 He said unto them, Exact nothing more than is appointed for you.
E elle lhes disse: Não peçaes mais do que o que vos está ordenado.
14 And the military men also asked him, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Extort nothing by force; nor turn informers; and be content with your pay.
E uns soldados o interrogaram tambem, dizendo: E nós que faremos? E elle lhes disse: Não trateis mal, nem defraudeis alguem, e contentae-vos com o vosso soldo.
15 Now when the people were in expectation, and many reasoned in their hearts respecting John, whether he were the Messiah,
E, estando o povo em expectação, e pensando todos de João, em seus corações, se porventura seria o Christo,
16 John addressed himself to them all, saying, I indeed baptise you with water; but one mightier than I is coming, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie: he shall baptise you with the Holy Ghost and with fire;
Respondeu João a todos, dizendo: Eu, na verdade, baptizo-vos com agua, mas vem um mais poderoso do que eu, a quem eu não sou digno de desatar a correia das alparcas; esse vos baptizará com o Espirito Sancto e com fogo.
17 whose winnowing fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing-floor, and collect the wheat into his granary; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
E a sua pá está em sua mão; e limpará a sua eira, e ajuntará o trigo no seu celleiro, porém queimará a palha com fogo que nunca se apaga.
18 Thus in many and various discourses exhorting them, he preached the glad tidings of the gospel to the people.
E assim, admoestando, muitas outras coisas tambem annunciava ao povo.
19 Now Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him, on account of Herodias his brother Philip’s wife, and for all the other wicked actions which he had done,
Sendo, porém, o tetrarcha Herodes reprehendido por elle por causa de Herodias, mulher de seu irmão Philippe, e por todas as maldades que Herodes tinha feito,
20 added this also to all the rest, and shut up John in prison.
Accrescentou a todas as outras ainda esta, de encerrar João n'um carcere.
21 Now it came to pass, at the time when John was baptising all the people, that Jesus also was baptised, and as he prayed, the heaven was opened,
E aconteceu que, como todo o povo fosse baptizado, e sendo baptizado tambem Jesus, e orando, abriu-se o céu,
22 and the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily form, like a dove, upon him, and a voice came from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in thee I am well pleased.
E o Espirito Sancto desceu sobre elle em forma corporea, como uma pomba; e ouviu-se uma voz do céu, que dizia: Tu és o meu filho amado, em ti me tenho comprazido.
23 And Jesus himself was about thirty years of age when he began his ministry, being (as was supposed the son of Joseph) of Heli,
