< John 21 >

1 After that, Jesus showed himself to [us] disciples when we were at Tiberias Lake, [which is another name for Galilee Lake]. This is what happened:
Depois destas coisas, Jesus revelou-se novamente aos discípulos no mar de Tiberíades. Ele se revelou desta maneira.
2 Simon Peter, Thomas who was called {whom [we] called} The Twin, Nathaniel from Cana [town] in Galilee, my older brother and I, and two other disciples were together.
Simão Pedro, Tomé chamado Didymus, Natanael de Caná na Galiléia, e os filhos de Zebedeu, e outros dois de seus discípulos estavam juntos.
3 Simon Peter said to us, “[I] am going to [try to] catch some fish.” We said, “We will go with you.” So we went down [to the lake] and got into the boat. But that night we caught nothing.
Simão Pedro disse-lhes: “Eu vou pescar”. Eles lhe disseram: “Nós também vamos com você”. Eles saíram imediatamente e entraram no barco. Naquela noite, eles não pegaram nada.
4 Early the next morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but we did not know that it was Jesus.
Mas quando o dia já havia chegado, Jesus estava na praia; no entanto, os discípulos não sabiam que era Jesus.
5 He called out to us, “My friends, you have not [caught] any fish, have you?” We answered, “You are correct, [we have not caught any].”
Jesus então lhes disse: “Crianças, têm algo para comer?”. Eles lhe responderam: “Não”.
6 He said to us, “Throw your net out from the right-hand side of the boat! Then you will find some!” We did that, and we caught so many fish [in the net] that we were unable to pull the net into [the boat]!
Ele disse-lhes: “Lancem a rede no lado direito do barco, e encontrarão alguma”. Eles o lançaram, portanto, e agora não conseguiram atraí-lo para a multidão de peixes.
7 [But I knew that it was Jesus], [so] I said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” Peter had taken off his cloak [while he was working], but as soon as he heard [me say] “It is the Lord!” he wrapped his cloak around himself and jumped into the water [and swam to shore].
Aquele discípulo, portanto, a quem Jesus amava disse a Pedro: “É o Senhor! Assim, quando Simon Peter ouviu que era o Senhor, envolveu seu casaco (pois estava nu), e se jogou no mar.
8 The rest of us came [to the shore] in the boat, pulling the net full of fish. We were not far from shore, only about 100 yards/meters.
Mas os outros discípulos vieram no pequeno barco (pois não estavam longe da terra, mas a cerca de duzentos cúbitos de distância), arrastando a rede cheia de peixes.
9 When [we] got to the shore, we saw that there was a fire of burning coals there, with a [large] fish on the fire, and [some] buns.
Então, quando saíram em terra, viram um fogo de brasas ali, com o peixe e o pão colocados sobre ele.
10 Jesus said to us, “Bring some of the fish that you have just caught!”
Jesus disse-lhes: “Tragam alguns dos peixes que acabaram de pescar”.
11 Simon Peter got in [the boat] and dragged the net to the shore. It was full of large fish. There were 153 of them! But in spite of there being so many fish, the net was not torn.
Simon Peter subiu, e puxou a rede para terra, cheia de cento e cinqüenta e três grandes peixes. Mesmo sendo tantos, a rede não foi rasgada.
12 Jesus said to us, “Come and eat some breakfast!” None of us dared to ask him, “Who are you?” because we knew that it was the Lord.
Jesus disse a eles: “Venham e tomem o café da manhã! Nenhum dos discípulos ousou perguntar-lhe: “Quem é você?” sabendo que era o Senhor.
13 Jesus took the buns and gave them to us. He did the same with the fish.
Então Jesus veio e levou o pão, deu a eles, e o peixe também.
14 That was the third time that Jesus appeared to [us] disciples after [God] caused him to become alive again after he died.
Esta é agora a terceira vez que Jesus é revelado a seus discípulos, depois de ter ressuscitado dos mortos.
15 When we had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “John’s [son] Simon, do you love me more than these [other disciples do]?” Peter said to him, “Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said, “Give to [those who belong to] me [what they need spiritually, like] [MET] [a shepherd provides] food for his lambs.”
Então, quando eles tinham tomado o café da manhã, Jesus disse a Simão Pedro: “Simão, filho de Jonas, você me ama mais do que estes?”. Ele lhe disse: “Sim, Senhor; Vós sabeis que tenho afeto por vós”. Ele lhe disse: “Alimente meus cordeiros”.
16 Jesus said to him again, “John’s [son] Simon, do you love me?” He replied, “Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said to him, “Take care of [those who belong to] me, [like] [MET] a [shepherd takes care of his] sheep.”
Ele disse a ele uma segunda vez: “Simon, filho de Jonas, você me ama?” Ele lhe disse: “Sim, Senhor; Vós sabeis que tenho afeto por vós”. Ele lhe disse: “Cuide das minhas ovelhas”.
17 Jesus said to him a third time, “John’s son Simon, am I really dear to you (OR, do you really love me)?” Peter was grieved because Jesus asked him this three times, [and because the third time he changed the question]. He said, “Lord, you know everything. You know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said, “Give to [those who belong to] me [what they need spiritually, as] [MET] [a shepherd provides] food for [his] sheep.
Ele disse a ele pela terceira vez: “Simon, filho de Jonas, você tem carinho por mim?” Peter ficou triste porque perguntou a ele pela terceira vez: “Você tem carinho por mim”? Ele disse a ele: “Senhor, tu sabes tudo. Tu sabes que eu tenho afeto por ti”. Jesus lhe disse: “Alimente minhas ovelhas”.
18 Now listen to this carefully: When you were young, you put your clothes on by yourself, and you went wherever you wanted to go. But when you are old, you will stretch out your arms, and someone will fasten them [with a rope] and will lead you to a place where you do not want to [go].”
Certamente eu lhe digo, quando você era jovem, você se vestia e caminhava onde queria. Mas quando você for velho, estenderá suas mãos, e outro o vestirá e o levará para onde você não quer ir”.
19 Jesus said this to indicate how Peter would die ([violently/on a cross]) in order to honor God. Then Jesus said to him, “Keep being my faithful disciple [until you die].”
Agora ele disse isto, significando com que tipo de morte ele glorificaria a Deus. Quando ele disse isto, disse-lhe: “Siga-me”.
20 Peter turned around and saw that I was following them. I was the one who leaned close to Jesus during the [Passover] meal and said, “Lord, who is going to enable your enemies to seize you?”
Então Pedro, voltando-se, viu um discípulo seguindo-o. Este era o discípulo que Jesus amava, aquele que também havia se apoiado no peito de Jesus no jantar e perguntou: “Senhor, quem te vai trair?
21 When Peter saw me, he asked, “Lord, what [is going to happen] to him?”
Pedro, vendo-o, disse a Jesus: “Senhor, que dizer deste homem?”.
22 Jesus said to him, “If I want him to remain [alive] until I return, (that is not your concern!/what is that to you?) [RHQ] You be my [faithful] disciple!”
Jesus lhe disse: “Se eu desejo que ele fique até eu vir, o que é isso para você? Você me segue”.
23 Some of the other believers heard [a report of] what Jesus had said about me, and [they thought that Jesus meant] that I would not die. But Jesus did not say that I would not die. He said only, “If I want him to remain [alive] until I return, (that is not your concern!/what is that to you?) [RHQ]”
Este ditado, portanto, saiu entre os irmãos que este discípulo não iria morrer. Mas Jesus não lhe disse que ele não morreria, mas: “Se eu desejo que ele fique até que eu venha, o que é isso para você”?
24 [I, John], am the disciple who has seen all these things and I have written them down. My [fellow apostles] and I know that what [I have written] is true.
Este é o discípulo que testemunha sobre estas coisas, e escreveu estas coisas. Sabemos que sua testemunha é verdadeira.
25 Jesus did many other things. If they would [all] be written {If people would write them [all]} down [in detail], I suppose that the whole world would not have enough space [HYP] to contain the books that would be written {that they would write} [about what he did].
Há também muitas outras coisas que Jesus fez, que se todas elas fossem escritas, suponho que nem mesmo o próprio mundo teria espaço para os livros que seriam escritos.
