Jeremiah 34
1 The word which came unto Jeremiah from Yahweh, —when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his force and all the kingdoms of the earth the dominion of his hand, and all the peoples were fighting against Jerusalem and against all her cities, saying:
A palavra que do Senhor veiu a Jeremias, quando Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia, e todo o seu exercito, e todos os reinos da terra, que estavam sob o dominio da sua mão, e todos os povos, pelejavam contra Jerusalem, e contra todas as suas cidades, dizendo:
2 Thus, saith Yahweh God of Israel, Go and speak unto Zedekiah king of Judah, —and say unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh, Behold me! giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will burn it with fire;
Assim diz o Senhor, Deus de Israel: Vae, e falla a Zedekias, rei de Judah, e dize-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Eis que eu dou esta cidade na mão do rei de Babylonia, e queimal-a-ha a fogo.
3 And, thou, shalt not escape out of his hand, For thou shalt be, taken, And into his hand, shalt thou be delivered, —And, thine own eyes, into the eyes of the king of Babylon, shall look, And his mouth, with thy mouth, shall speak And Babylon, shalt thou enter.
E tu não escaparás á sua mão; antes decerto serás preso, e serás entregue na sua mão: e teus olhos verão os olhos do rei de Babylonia, e elle te fallará bocca a bocca, e entrarás em Babylonia
4 Nevertheless, hear the word of Yahweh, O Zedekiah, king of Judah, —Thus, saith Yahweh Concerning thee, Thou shalt not die, by the sword;
Todavia ouve a palavra do Senhor, ó Zedekias, rei de Judah: assim diz o Senhor de ti: Não morrerás á espada.
5 In peace, shalt thou die, And with the burnings made for thy fathers the former kings who were before thee, so, shall they make a burning unto thee, And, with an, Alas lord! shall they lament thee, —Because of the word, I, have spoken, Declareth Yahweh.
Em paz morrerás, e conforme as queimas de teus paes, os reis precedentes, que foram antes de ti, assim te queimarão a ti, e prantear-te-hão, dizendo: Ah Senhor! porque eu disse a palavra, diz o Senhor.
6 Then spake Jeremiah the prophet, unto Zedekiah king of Judah all these words in Jerusalem;
E fallou Jeremias, o propheta, a Zedekias, rei de Judah, todas estas palavras, em Jerusalem,
7 when, the force of the king of Babylon, was fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, —against Lachish and against Azekah, for they, remained among the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
Quando o exercito do rei de Babylonia pelejava contra Jerusalem, e contra todas as cidades de Judah, que ficaram de resto: contra Lachis e contra Azeca; porque estas fortes cidades ficaram de resto, d'entre as cidades de Judah.
8 The word which came unto Jeremiah, from Yahweh, —after that King Zedekiah had solemnised a covenant with all the people who were in Jerusalem, proclaiming unto them liberty:
A palavra que do Senhor veiu a Jeremias, depois que o rei Zedekias fez concerto com todo o povo que havia em Jerusalem, para lhes apregoar a liberdade;
9 that every man should let his servant and every man his handmaid, being a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free, —so that no man should use them as slaves, to wit a Jew his brother;
Que cada um despedisse forro o seu servo, e cada um a sua serva, hebreo ou hebrea; de maneira que ninguem se fizesse servir d'elles, sendo judeos, seus irmãos.
10 so then they hearkened—even all the princes and all the people who had entered into the covenant that every man should let his servant and every man his handmaid, go free, so as not to use them as slaves, any longer, —yea they hearkened, and let them go,
E ouviram todos os principes, e todo o povo que entrou no concerto, que cada um despedisse forro o seu servo, e cada um a sua serva, de maneira que não se fizessem mais servir d'elles: ouviram pois, e os soltaram.
11 howbeit they turned after that, and brought back the servants and the handmaids whom they had let go, free, and brought them into subjection as servants and as handmaids,
Porém depois se arrependeram, e fizeram voltar os servos e as servas que largaram livres, e os sujeitaram por servos e por servas.
12 So then the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying:
Veiu pois a palavra do Senhor a Jeremias, da parte do Senhor, dizendo:
13 Thus, saith Yahweh God of Israel, —I myself, solemnised a covenant with your fathers, in the day when I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slaves saying:
Assim diz o Senhor, Deus de Israel: Eu fiz concerto com vossos paes, no dia em que os tirei da terra do Egypto, da casa de servos, dizendo:
14 At the end of seven years, shall ye let go every man his brother, being a Hebrew, who shall sell himself unto thee and serve thee, six years, then shalt thou let him go, free, from thee, Howbeit your fathers hearkened not unto me neither inclined their ear.
Ao fim de sete annos largareis cada um a seu irmão hebreo, que te fôr vendido a ti, e te houver servido a ti seis annos, e despedil-o-has forro de ti; porém vossos paes me não ouviram, nem inclinaram os seus ouvidos.
15 And, though, ye, just now turned and did that which was right in mine eyes, by proclaiming liberty, every man to his neighbour, —and solemnised a covenant before me, in the house on which my Name hath been called,
E vos havieis hoje convertido, e tinheis feito o que é recto aos meus olhos, apregoando liberdade cada um ao seu proximo; e tinheis feito diante de mim um concerto, na casa que se chama pelo meu nome:
16 yet have ye turned and profaned my Name, and brought back, every man his servant and every man his hand-maid, whom ye had let go, free, at their own desire, —and have brought them into subjection, to become your servants and handmaids.
Porém vos tornastes, e profanastes o meu nome, e fizestes voltar cada um ao seu servo, e cada um á sua serva, os quaes já tinheis despedido forros conforme a sua vontade; e os sujeitastes, para que se vos fizessem servos e servas.
17 Therefore—Thus, saith Yahweh, Ye, have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every man to his brother and every man to his neighbour: Behold me! proclaiming, to you, a liberty: Declareth Yahweh unto the sword, unto the pestilence, and unto the famine, so will I make you a terror to all the kingdoms of the earth;
Portanto assim diz o Senhor: Vós me não ouvistes a mim, para apregoardes a liberdade, cada um ao seu irmão, e cada um ao seu proximo; pois eis que eu vos apregôo a liberdade, diz o Senhor, para a espada, para a pestilencia, e para a fome; e dar-vos-hei por espanto a todos os reinos da terra.
18 and will give the men who are transgressing my covenant, in that they have not confirmed the words of the covenant, which they solemnised, before me, when they cut the calf, in twain, and passed between the parts thereof;
E entregarei os homens que, traspassaram o meu concerto, que não confirmaram as palavras do concerto, que fizeram diante de mim, com o bezerro, que fenderam em duas partes, e passaram pelo meio das suas porções;
19 even the princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs and the priests, and all the people of the land, —who passed between the parts of the calf,
A saber, os principes de Judah, e os principes de Jerusalem, os eunuchos, e os sacerdotes, e todo o povo da terra que passou por meio das porções do bezerro;
20 yea I will give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them who are seeking their life, —and their dead bodies shall become food for the birds of the heavens, and for the beasts of the earth.
Entregal-os-hei, digo, na mão de seus inimigos, e na mão dos que procuram a sua morte, e os cadaveres d'elles serão para mantimento ás aves dos céus e aos animaes da terra.
21 Zedekiah king of Judah also with his princes, will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them who are seeking their life, —even into the hand of the force of the king of Babylon, who are going up from you.
E até o rei Zedekias, rei de Judah, e seus principes entregarei na mão de seus inimigos e na mão dos que procuram a sua morte, a saber, na mão do exercito do rei de Babylonia, que já se retirou de vós.
22 Behold me! giving command, Declareth Yahweh, and I will bring them back unto this city, and they will fight against it and capture it, and consume it with fire, —and, the cities of Judah, will I make too desolate to have an inhabitant.
Eis que eu darei ordem, diz o Senhor, e os farei tornar a esta cidade, e pelejarão contra ella, e a tomarão, e a queimarão a fogo; e as cidades de Judah porei em assolação, que ninguem habite n'ellas.
