Luke 5
1 Once, when the people were pressing round Jesus as they listened to God’s Message, he happened to be standing by the shore of the Lake of Gennesaret, and saw two boats close to the shore.
E aconteceu que, apertando-o a multidão, para ouvir a palavra de Deus, estava elle junto ao lago de Genezareth;
2 The fishermen had gone away from them and were washing the nets.
E viu estar dois barcos junto á praia do lago; e os pescadores, havendo descido d'elles, estavam lavando as redes.
3 So, getting into one of the boats, which belonged to Simon, Jesus asked him to push off a little way from the shore, and then sat down and taught the people from the boat.
E, entrando n'um dos barcos, que era o de Simão, pediu-lhe que o affastasse um pouco da terra; e, assentando-se, ensinava do barco a multidão.
4 When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon: “Push off into deep water, and throw out your nets for a haul.”
E, quando acabou de fallar, disse a Simão: Faze-te ao mar alto, e lançae as vossas redes para pescar.
5 “We have been hard at work all night, Sir,” answered Simon, “and have not caught anything, but, at your bidding, I will throw out the nets.”
E, respondendo Simão, disse-lhe: Mestre, havendo trabalhado toda a noite, nada apanhámos; mas, sobre tua palavra, lançarei a rede.
6 They did so, and enclosed such a great shoal of fish that their nets began to break.
E, fazendo assim, colheram uma grande quantidade de peixes, e rompia-se-lhes a rede.
7 So they signalled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them; and they came and filled both the boats so full of fish that they were almost sinking.
E fizeram signal aos companheiros que estavam no outro barco, para que os fossem ajudar. E foram, e encheram ambos os barcos, de maneira tal que quasi iam a pique.
8 When Simon Peter saw this, he threw himself down at Jesus’ knees, exclaiming: “Master, leave me, for I am a sinful man!”
E Simão Pedro, vendo isto, prostrou-se aos pés de Jesus, dizendo: Senhor, ausenta-te de mim, que sou um homem peccador.
9 For he and all who were with him were lost in amazement at the haul of fish which they had made;
Porque o espanto se apoderara d'elle, e de todos os que com elle estavam, por causa da pesca de peixe que haviam feito;
10 and so, too, were James and John, Zebediah’s sons, who were Simon’s partners. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon; “from to-day you shall catch men.”
E, de egual modo, tambem de Thiago e João, filhos de Zebedeo, que eram companheiros de Simão. E disse Jesus a Simão: Não temas: de agora em diante serás pescador de homens.
11 And, when they had brought their boats to shore, they left everything, and followed him.
E, levando os barcos para terra, deixando tudo, o seguiram.
12 On one occasion Jesus was staying in a town, when he saw a man who was covered with leprosy. When the leper saw Jesus, he threw himself on his face and implored his help: “Master, if only you are willing, you are able to make me clean.”
E aconteceu que, estando n'uma das cidades, eis que um homem cheio de lepra, vendo a Jesus, prostrou-se sobre o rosto, e rogou-lhe, dizendo: Senhor, se quizeres, bem podes limpar-me.
13 Stretching out his hand, Jesus touched him, saying as he did so: “I am willing; become clean.” Instantly the leprosy left the man;
E elle, estendendo a mão, tocou-o, dizendo: Quero; sê limpo. E logo a lepra desappareceu d'elle.
14 and then Jesus impressed upon him that he was not to say a word to any one, “but,” he added, “set out and show yourself to the priest, and make the offerings for your cleansing, in the manner directed by Moses, as evidence of your cure.”
E ordenou-lhe que a ninguem o dissesse. Porém vae, disse, mostra-te ao sacerdote, e offerece, pela tua purificação, o que Moysés determinou, para que lhes sirva de testemunho.
15 However, the story about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came together to listen to him, and to be cured of their illnesses;
Porém a sua fama se dilatava ainda mais, e ajuntavam-se muitas gentes para o ouvirem e para serem por elle curados das suas enfermidades.
16 but Jesus used to withdraw to lonely places and pray.
Porém elle retirava-se para os desertos, e ali orava.
17 On one of those days, when Jesus was teaching, some Pharisees and Doctors of the Law were sitting near by. (They had come from all the villages in Galilee and Judea, and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was upon Jesus, so that he could work cures.)
E aconteceu que, n'um d'aquelles dias, estava ensinando, e estavam ali assentados phariseos e doutores da lei, que tinham vindo de todas as aldeias da Galilea, e da Judea, e de Jerusalem, e a virtude do Senhor estava com elle para os curar.
18 And there some men brought on a bed a man who was paralysed. They tried to get him in and lay him before Jesus;
E eis que uns homens transportaram n'uma cama um homem que estava paralytico, e procuravam introduzil-o, e pôl-o diante d'elle;
19 but, finding no way of getting him in owing to the crowd, they went up on the roof and lowered him through the tiles, with his pallet, into the middle of the people and in front of Jesus.
E, não achando por onde podessem introduzil-o, por causa da multidão, subiram ao telhado, e pelas telhas o baixaram com a cama, até ao meio, diante de Jesus.
20 When he saw their faith, Jesus said: “Friend, your sins have been forgiven you.”
E, vendo elle a fé d'elles, disse-lhe: Homem, os teus peccados te são perdoados.
21 The Teachers of the Law and the Pharisees began debating about this. “Who is this man who speaks so blasphemously?” they asked. “Who can forgive sins except God?”
E os escribas e os phariseos começaram a arrazoar, dizendo: Quem é este que diz blasphemias? Quem pode perdoar peccados, senão só Deus?
22 When Jesus became aware of the way in which they were debating, he turned to them and exclaimed: “What are you debating with yourselves?
Jesus, porém, conhecendo os seus pensamentos, respondeu, e disse-lhes: Que arrazoaes em vossos corações?
23 Which is the easier? — to say ‘Your sins have been forgiven you’? or to say ‘Get up, and walk about’?
Qual é mais facil? dizer: Os teus peccados te são perdoados; ou dizer: Levanta-te, e anda?
24 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins” — he spoke to the paralysed man — “To you I say, Get up, and take up your pallet, and go to your home.”
Ora, para que saibaes que o Filho do homem tem sobre a terra poder de perdoar os peccados (disse ao paralytico), A ti te digo: Levanta-te, toma a tua cama, e vae para tua casa.
25 Instantly the man stood up before their eyes, took up what he had been lying on, and went to his home, praising God.
E, levantando-se logo diante d'elles, e tomando a cama em que estava deitado, foi para sua casa, glorificando a Deus.
26 The people, one and all, were lost in amazement, and praised God; and in great awe they said: “We have seen marvellous things to-day!”
E todos ficaram maravilhados, e glorificaram a Deus; e ficaram cheios de temor, dizendo: Hoje vimos prodigios.
27 After this, Jesus went out; and he noticed a tax-gatherer, named Levi, sitting in the tax-office, and said to him: “Follow me.”
E, depois d'estas coisas, saiu, e viu um publicano, chamado Levi, assentado na recebedoria, e disse-lhe: Segue-me.
28 Levi left everything and got up and followed him.
E elle, deixando tudo, levantou-se e o seguiu.
29 And Levi gave a great entertainment at his house, in honour of Jesus; and a large number of tax-gatherers and others were at table with them.
E fez-lhe Levi um grande banquete em sua casa; e havia ali uma multidão de publicanos e outros que estavam com elles á mesa.
30 The Pharisees and the teachers of the Law belonging to their party complained of this to the disciples of Jesus.”
E os escribas d'elles, e os phariseos, murmuravam contra os seus discipulos, dizendo: Porque comeis e bebeis com publicanos e peccadores?
31 In answer Jesus said: “It is not those who are well that need a doctor, but those who are ill.
E Jesus, respondendo, disse-lhes: Não necessitam de medico os que estão sãos, mas, sim, os que estão enfermos;
32 I have not come to call the religious, but the outcast, to repent.”
Eu não vim para chamar os justos, mas, sim, os peccadores ao arrependimento.
33 “John’s disciples,” they said to Jesus, “Often fast and say prayers, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, while yours are eating and drinking!”
Disseram-lhe então elles: Porque jejuam os discipulos de João muitas vezes, e fazem orações, como tambem os dos phariseos, porém os teus comem e bebem?
34 But Jesus answered them: “Can you make the bridegroom’s friends fast while the bridegroom is with them?
Mas elle lhes disse: Podeis vós fazer jejuar os filhos das bodas, emquanto o esposo está com elles?
35 But the days will come — a time when the bridegroom will be parted from them; and they will fast then, when those days come.”
Dias virão, porém, em que o esposo lhes será tirado, e então, n'aquelles dias, jejuarão.
36 Then, as an illustration, Jesus said to them: “No man ever tears a piece from a new garment and puts it upon an old one; for, if he does, he will not only tear the new garment, but the piece from the new one will not match the old.
E disse-lhes tambem uma parabola: Ninguem deita remendo de panno novo em vestido velho; d'outra maneira o novo romperá o velho, e o remendo novo não condiz com o velho.
37 And no man puts new wine into old wine-skins; for, if he does, the new wine will burst the skins, and the wine itself will run out, and the skins be lost.
E ninguem deita vinho novo em odres velhos; d'outra maneira o vinho novo romperá os odres, e entornar-se-ha o vinho, e os odres se estragarão;
38 But new wine must be put into fresh skins.
Mas o vinho novo deve deitar-se em odres novos, e ambos juntamente se conservarão.
39 No man after drinking old wine wishes for new. ‘No,’ he says, ‘the old is excellent.’”
E ninguem que beber o velho quer logo o novo, porque diz: Melhor é o velho.
