Luke 20
1 One day [during that week, Jesus] was teaching the people in the Temple [courtyard] and telling them [God’s] good message. As he was doing that, the chief priests, the men who taught the [Jewish] laws, and [other Jewish] elders came to him.
Em um daqueles dias, quando ele estava ensinando o povo no templo e pregando a Boa Nova, os sacerdotes e escribas vieram até ele com os anciãos.
2 They asked him, “Tell us, by what authority are you doing these things? Who authorized you to do things [like you did here yesterday]?”
Eles lhe perguntaram: “Diga-nos: com que autoridade você faz estas coisas? Ou quem lhe está dando essa autoridade?”.
3 He replied, “I will also ask you a question. Tell me,
Ele lhes respondeu: “Eu também lhe farei uma pergunta. Diga-me:
4 where did John [the Baptizer] get [his authority to] baptize [those who came to him]? [Did he get it] from God [MTY/EUP] or from people?”
o batismo de João, foi do céu, ou dos homens?”
5 They discussed this among themselves. They said, “[If we(inc) say], ‘[It was] from God [MTY/EUP],’ he will say to us, ‘[Then] (you should have believed John’s [message]!/why did you not believe what John preached?) [RHQ]’
Eles raciocinaram consigo mesmos, dizendo: “Se dissermos: 'Do céu', ele dirá: 'Por que não acreditaram nele?
6 But if we say, ‘It was [from] people,’ the people [here] will [kill us by] throwing stones at us, because they [all] believe that John was a prophet [from God].”
Mas se dissermos: 'Dos homens', todo o povo nos apedrejará, pois estão convencidos de que João era um profeta”.
7 So they replied, “We [(exc)] do not know where [John got his authority].”
Eles responderam que não sabiam de onde era.
8 Then Jesus said to them, “[Because you did not answer my question], I will not tell you who authorized me to do those things [here yesterday].”
Jesus lhes disse: “Nem eu lhes direi com que autoridade faço estas coisas”.
9 Then Jesus told the people this parable [to illustrate what God would do to the Jews who rejected the former prophets and himself]: “A [certain] man planted a vineyard. He rented the vineyard to some men [to care for it and to give him some of the grapes in return]. Then he went to another country and stayed there several years.
Ele começou a contar ao povo esta parábola: “Um homem plantou uma vinha e alugou-a para alguns agricultores, e foi para outro país por um longo tempo.
10 When [the vines started producing] grapes, he sent a servant to the men who were taking care of the vineyard. He expected that they would give him some of the grapes that the vineyard had produced. But [after the servant arrived], they beat him and they did not give him any grapes. They [just] sent him away.
Na estação apropriada, ele enviou um criado aos fazendeiros para recolher sua parte do fruto do vinhedo. Mas os fazendeiros o espancaram e o mandaram embora vazio.
11 [Later], [the owner] sent another servant. But they beat him and mistreated him [also]. They sent him away without giving him any grapes.
Ele mandou mais um servo, e eles também o espancaram e o trataram vergonhosamente, e o mandaram embora vazio.
12 [Still later, the owner] sent another servant. That one they wounded and threw him out [of the vineyard].
Ele mandou ainda um terceiro, e eles também o feriram e o expulsaram.
13 So the owner of the vineyard thought to himself, ‘(I do not know what to do!/What shall I do?) [RHQ]’ [Then he had an idea. He thought to himself], ‘I will send my son, [whom I] love [very much]. Perhaps they will respect him [and give him my share of the grapes].’
O senhor da vinha disse: 'O que devo fazer? Mandarei meu filho amado”. Pode ser que vendo-o, eles o respeitem”.
14 [So he sent his son], but when the men who were caring for the vineyard saw him [coming], they said to each other, ‘Here [comes] the man who will [some day] inherit [the vineyard]. Let’s kill him so that this vineyard will be ours!’
“Mas quando os agricultores o viram, eles raciocinaram entre si, dizendo: 'Este é o herdeiro'. Venha, vamos matá-lo, para que a herança possa ser nossa”.
15 So they dragged him outside the vineyard and they killed him. So (I will tell you what the owner of the vineyard will do to them!/do you know what the owner of the vineyard will do to them?) [RHQ]
Depois o expulsaram do vinhedo e o mataram. O que, portanto, o senhor da vinha fará com eles?
16 He will come and kill those men who were taking care of the vineyard. Then he will arrange for other people to take care of it.” When the people listening to Jesus heard that, they said, “[We would] not do anything like those wicked men did!”
Ele virá e destruirá estes agricultores, e dará o vinhedo a outros”. Quando ouviram isso, disseram: “Que isso nunca seja!”.
17 But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “You can say that, [but think about] the meaning of these words that are written {which [a prophet] wrote} [RHQ] [in the Scriptures], The men who were building a house rejected a certain stone. But others put that same stone in its proper place, and it has become the most important stone in the building [MET].
Mas ele olhou para eles e disse: “Então o que é isto que está escrito? “A pedra que os construtores rejeitaram foi feita a principal pedra angular...
18 [That stone represents me, the Messiah], and those who reject me are [like people who fall on this stone]. Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces {This stone will break to pieces everyone who falls on it}, and it will crush anyone on whom it falls.”
Todos os que caírem sobre aquela pedra serão despedaçados, mas esmagará quem quer que caia no pó”.
19 The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws realized that he was accusing them when he told the parable [about what those wicked men did]. So they immediately tried to find a way to seize [MTY] him, but [they did not seize him, because] they were afraid of [what] the people [there would do if they did that].
Os sacerdotes chefes e os escribas procuraram impor-lhe as mãos naquela mesma hora, mas temiam o povo - pois sabiam que ele tinha dito esta parábola contra eles.
20 So they watched him carefully. They also hired (spies/secret agents) who pretended to be sincere. [But] they really wanted to get him to say something for [which they could accuse] him. They wanted to be able to turn him over to the authority of the governor [of the province. But they also knew that the Jews were disgusted with having to pay taxes to the government].
Eles o observaram e enviaram espiões, que fingiam ser justos, para encurralá-lo em algo que ele disse, a fim de entregá-lo ao poder e autoridade do governador.
21 [So] one of them asked Jesus, “Teacher, we [(exc)] know that you [(sg)] speak and teach what is right. You tell the truth even if important people do not like it. You teach truthfully what God wants us to do.
Eles lhe perguntaram: “Professor, sabemos que você diz e ensina o que é certo, e não é parcial para ninguém, mas realmente ensina o caminho de Deus”.
22 [So tell us what you think about this matter]: Is it right that we pay taxes to the Roman government [MTY], or not?”
É lícito para nós pagarmos impostos a César, ou não”?
23 But Jesus knew that they were trying to trick him [to get him into trouble, either with the Jews, who hated to pay those taxes, or with the Roman government]. So he said to them,
Mas ele percebeu sua astúcia, e disse-lhes: “Por que me testam?
24 “Show me a [Roman] coin. [Then tell me] whose picture is on it. And [tell me whose] name is on it.” They [showed him a coin and] said, “It has the picture and name of Caesar, [the head of the Roman government].”
Mostre-me um denário. De quem é a imagem e a inscrição?” Eles responderam, “de César”.
25 He said to them, “In that case, give to the government [MTY] what they [require], and give to God what he [requires].”
Ele lhes disse: “Então dê a César as coisas que são de César, e a Deus as coisas que são de Deus”.
26 While the people were there, the [spies] were unable to find fault with him for what he said. And they were amazed at his answer. So they said nothing.
Eles não foram capazes de prendê-lo em suas palavras perante o povo. Eles se maravilharam com sua resposta e ficaram em silêncio.
27 Some Sadducees came to [Jesus]. They are a Jewish sect who do not believe that people will become alive again after they die.
Alguns dos saduceus vieram até ele, aqueles que negam que haja uma ressurreição.
28 They [wanted to] ask [Jesus] a question [in order to discredit the idea that dead people will live again]. One of them said [to Jesus], “Teacher, Moses wrote for us [Jews] about situations where a man who has a wife but no children. If the man dies, his brother should marry the [dead man’s] widow so that she can have a child by him. People [will consider] that the child is the descendant of the man [who died], [and in that way the dead man will have descendants].
Eles lhe perguntaram: “Mestre, Moisés nos escreveu que se o irmão de um homem morre tendo uma esposa, e ele é sem filhos, seu irmão deveria levar a esposa e criar filhos para seu irmão.
29 Well, there were seven brothers in one family. The oldest one married, but he and his wife did not bear any children. Later he died.
Havia, portanto, sete irmãos. O primeiro tomou uma esposa, e morreu sem filhos.
30 The second [brother followed this law and married the widow, but the same thing happened to him].
O segundo a tomou como esposa, e ele morreu sem filhos.
31 Then the third [brother] married her, [but the same thing happened again]. All seven [brothers, one by one, married that woman], [but] they had no children, and [one by one] they died.
O terceiro a tomou, e da mesma forma os sete não deixaram filhos, e morreram.
32 Afterwards, the woman died, too.
Depois disso, a mulher também morreu.
33 Therefore, [if it is true that there will be a time] when dead people will become alive again, whose wife [do you think that woman] will be [then]? ([Keep in mind that she was married to all seven brothers!/It will be impossible to decide because] she was married to all seven brothers!) [RHQ]”
Portanto, na ressurreição, de quem será esposa deles? Pois os sete a tiveram como esposa”.
34 Jesus replied to them, “Men who live here in this world take wives, or are given wives [by their parents] {their [parents] choose wives [for them]}. (aiōn g165)
Jesus disse a eles: “As crianças desta idade se casam e são dadas em casamento. (aiōn g165)
35 But the men whom God considers worthy of [being in heaven after] they become alive again will not be married. (aiōn g165)
Mas aqueles que são considerados dignos de atingir esta idade e a ressurreição dos mortos não se casam nem são dados em casamento. (aiōn g165)
36 [You need to know also that] they cannot die any more, because they will be [immortal] [SIM] like angels. [The fact that God has caused] them to be alive again [will show] that they are God’s children.
Pois eles não podem mais morrer, pois são como os anjos e são filhos de Deus, sendo filhos da ressurreição.
37 But [as for people] becoming alive again after they die, Moses wrote something about that. In the place where [he wrote about] the [burning] bush, he mentions the Lord as being the God whom Abraham [worships] and the God whom Isaac [worships] and the God whom Jacob [worships].
Mas que os mortos são ressuscitados, até mesmo Moisés mostrou no mato, quando chamou o Senhor “O Deus de Abraão, o Deus de Isaac, e o Deus de Jacó”.
38 It is not dead people who worship God. It is living people who worship him. [Abraham, Isaac and Jacob died long before Moses lived, but God said that they were still worshipping him, so we(inc) know their spirits were still alive]! All [people] whose [spirits] are alive [again after they die continue to live to honor God]!”
Agora ele não é o Deus dos mortos, mas dos vivos, pois todos estão vivos para ele”.
39 Some of the men who taught the [Jewish] laws replied, “Teacher, you [(sg)] have answered very well!”
Alguns dos escribas responderam: “Professor, você fala bem”.
40 After that, they no longer dared to ask him any more questions [like that to try to trap him].
Eles não se atreveram a fazer mais perguntas.
41 Then Jesus said to them, “I will show you (OR, prove to you) that people [are wrong who] say that the Messiah is [merely] a descendant of [King] David! [RHQ]
Ele lhes disse: “Por que eles dizem que o Cristo é filho de Davi?
42 Because David himself wrote [about the Messiah] in the book of Psalms, God said to my Lord, Sit [here beside me] on my right, [where I will highly honor you(sg)] [MTY].
O próprio David diz no livro de Salmos, O Senhor disse ao meu Senhor, “Sente-se à minha mão direita,
43 [Sit here] while I completely defeat your enemies.
até que eu faça de seus inimigos o escabelo de seus pés”''.
44 King David calls [the Messiah] ‘[my] Lord’! So ([the Messiah] cannot be [just someone] descended from [King] David!/how can the Messiah be [just] someone descended from [King] David?) [RHQ] [What I just said proves that he is much greater than David, isn’t that right]?”
“David então o chama de Senhor, então como ele é seu filho”?
45 While all the [other] people were listening, [Jesus] said to his disciples,
Na audiência de todo o povo, ele disse a seus discípulos,
46 “Beware that [you do not act like] the men who teach our [Jewish] laws. They like to put on long robes and walk around [to make people think that they are very important]. [They] also like [people to] greet them [respectfully] in the marketplaces. They like [to sit in] the most important places in the Jewish meeting places. At dinner parties [they like to sit in] the seats where the most honored people sit.
“Cuidado com os escribas que gostam de andar com longas vestes, e adoram saudações nos mercados, os melhores lugares nas sinagogas, e os melhores lugares nas festas;
47 They swindle [MET] the houses [and property] of widows. [Then] they pretend they are good, as they pray [long] prayers [publicly. God] will [certainly] punish them very severely.”
que devoram as casas das viúvas, e por uma pretensão fazem longas orações. Estas receberão maior condenação”.
