Luke 8
1 Shortly afterwards, Jesus went on a journey through the towns and villages, proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom of God. With him went the Twelve,
E aconteceu, depois d'isto, que andava de cidade em cidade, e de aldeia em aldeia, prégando e annunciando o evangelho do reino de Deus: e os doze andavam com elle,
2 as well as some women who had been cured of wicked spirits and of infirmities. They were Mary, known as Mary of Magdala (from whom seven demons had been expelled),
E tambem algumas mulheres que haviam sido curadas de espiritos malignos e de enfermidades: Maria, chamada Magdalena, da qual sairam sete demonios.
3 and Joanna (the wife of Herod’s steward, Chuza), and Susannah, and many others — all of whom ministered to Jesus and his Apostles out of their means.
E Joanna, mulher de Chuza, procurador d'Herodes, e Suzana, e muitas outras que o serviam com suas fazendas.
4 Once, when a great crowd was collecting, and, when the people of town after town were flocking to Jesus, he spoke to them in the form of a parable:
E, ajuntando-se uma grande multidão, e vindo ter com elle de todas as cidades, disse por parabola:
5 “The sower went out to sow his seed; and, as he was sowing, some of the seed fell along the path and was trodden upon; and the wild birds ate it up.
Um semeador saiu a semear a sua semente, e, quando semeava, caiu uma parte junto do caminho, e foi pisada, e as aves do céu a comeram;
6 Other seed fell upon rock, and, as soon as it began to grow, having no moisture, withered away.
E outra parte caiu sobre pedra, e, nascida, seccou-se, porquanto não tinha humidade;
7 Other seed fell in the middle of brambles, but the brambles grew up with it and choked it entirely.
E outra parte caiu entre espinhos, e, nascidos com ella os espinhos, a suffocaram;
8 Other seed fell into rich soil, and grew, and gave a hundred-fold return.” After saying this, Jesus cried aloud: “Let him who has ears to hear with hear.”
E outra parte caiu em boa terra, e, nascida, produziu fructo, cento por um. Dizendo elle estas coisas, clamava: Quem tem ouvidos para ouvir, ouça.
9 His disciples asked Jesus the meaning of this parable.
E os seus discipulos o interrogaram, dizendo: Que parabola é esta?
10 “To you,” he said, “the knowledge of the hidden truths of the Kingdom of God has been imparted, but to others in parables only, that ‘though they have eyes they may not see, and though they have ears, they may not understand.’
E elle disse: A vós é dado conhecer os mysterios do reino de Deus, mas aos outros por parabolas, para que, vendo, não vejam, e, ouvindo, não entendam.
11 This is the parable — The seed is God’s Message.
Esta é pois a parabola: A semente é a palavra de Deus;
12 By the seed which fell along the path are meant those who hear the Message; but then comes the Devil and carries away the Message from their minds, to prevent their believing it and being saved.
E os que estão junto do caminho, estes são os que ouvem; depois vem o diabo, e tira-lhes do coração a palavra, para que se não salvem, crendo;
13 By the seed which fell upon the rock are meant those who, as soon as they hear the Message, welcome it joyfully; but they have no root, and believe it only for a time, and, when the time of temptation comes, they draw back.
E os que estão sobre pedra, estes são os que, ouvindo a palavra, a recebem com alegria, mas estes não teem raiz, pois crêem por algum tempo, e no tempo da tentação se desviam;
14 By that which fell among the brambles are meant those who hear the Message, but who, as they go on their way, are completely choked by this world’s cares and wealth and pleasures, and bring nothing to perfection.
E a que caiu entre espinhos, estes são os que ouviram, e, indo por diante, se suffocam com os cuidados, e riquezas e deleites da vida, e não dão fructo com perfeição;
15 But by that in the good ground are meant those who, having heard the Message, keep it in the good, rich soil of their hearts, and patiently yield a return.
E a que caiu em boa terra, estes são os que, ouvindo a palavra, a conservam n'um coração honesto e bom, e dão fructo em perseverança.
16 No man sets light to a lamp and then covers it with a bowl or puts it underneath a couch, but he puts it on a lamp-stand, so that anyone who comes in may see the light.
E ninguem, accendendo uma candeia, a cobre com algum vaso, ou a põe debaixo da cama; porém põe-n'a no velador, para que os que entram vejam a luz.
17 Nothing is hidden which will not be brought into the light of day, not ever kept hidden which will not some day become known and come into the light of day.
Porque não ha coisa occulta que não haja de manifestar-se, nem coisa escondida que não haja de saber-se e vir á luz
18 Take care, then, how you listen. For, to all those who have, more will be given; while, from all those who have nothing, even what they seem to have will be taken away.”
Vêde pois como ouvis; porque a qualquer que tiver lhe será dado, e a qualquer que não tiver até o que parece que tem lhe será tirado.
19 Presently Jesus’ mother and brothers came where he was, but they were not able to join him on account of the crowd.
E foram ter com elle sua mãe e seus irmãos, e não podiam chegar a elle, por causa da multidão.
20 So word was brought to him — ‘Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.’
E foi-lhe annunciado por alguns, dizendo: Estão lá fóra tua mãe e teus irmãos, que querem ver-te.
21 His reply, spoken to them all, was: “My mother and my brothers are those who listen to God’s teaching and do what it bids.”
Porém, respondendo elle, disse-lhes: Minha mãe e meus irmãos são aquelles que ouvem a palavra de Deus e a executam.
22 One day about that time, Jesus got into a boat with his disciples and said to them: “Let us go across the lake.”
E aconteceu que, n'um d'aquelles dias, entrou n'um barco, e com elle os seus discipulos, e disse-lhes: Passemos para a outra banda do lago. E partiram.
23 So they put off. While they were sailing, Jesus fell asleep. A squall swept down upon the lake, and their boat was filling and they were in danger.
E, navegando elles, adormeceu; e sobreveiu uma tempestade de vento no lago, e enchiam-se d'agua, e perigavam.
24 So the disciples came and roused him. “Sir, Sir,” they cried, “we are lost!” Jesus rose and rebuked the wind and the rushing waves, and they fell, and a calm followed.
E, chegando-se a elle, o despertaram, dizendo: Mestre, Mestre, perecemos. E elle, levantando-se, reprehendeu o vento e as ondas d'agua; e cessaram, e fez-se bonança.
25 “Where is your faith?” he exclaimed. But in great awe and amazement they said to one another: “Who can this be, that he commands even the winds and the waves, and they obey him?”
E disse-lhes: Onde está a vossa fé? E elles, temendo, maravilharam-se, dizendo uns aos outros: Quem é este, que até aos ventos e á agua manda, e lhe obedecem?
26 And they reached the country of the Gerasenes, which is on the opposite side to Galilee;
E navegaram para a terra dos gadarenos, que está defronte da Galilea.
27 and, on getting ashore, Jesus met a man, who had demons in him, coming out of the town. For a long time this man had worn no clothing, and he had not lived in a house, but in the tombs.
E, quando desceu para terra, saiu-lhe ao encontro, vindo da cidade, um homem que desde muito tempo era possesso de demonios, e não andava vestido, e não habitava em casa, mas nos sepulchros.
28 Catching sight of Jesus, he shrieked out and threw himself down before him, and in a loud voice exclaimed: “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beseech you not to torment me.”
E, vendo a Jesus, prostrou-se diante d'elle, exclamando, e dizendo com grande voz: Que tenho eu comtigo, Jesus, Filho do Deus Altissimo? Peço-te que não me atormentes.
29 For Jesus was commanding the foul spirit to come out from the man. On many occasions it had seized him, and, even when secured with chains and fetters, and watched, he would break through anything that bound him, and be driven by the demon into the Wilds.
Porque mandava ao espirito immundo que saisse d'aquelle homem; porque já havia muito tempo que o arrebatava. E guardavam-n'o preso com grilhões e cadeias; mas, quebrando as prisões, era impellido pelo demonio para os desertos.
30 “What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he answered (for many demons had taken possession of him);
E perguntou-lhe Jesus, dizendo: Qual é o teu nome? E elle disse: Legião; porque tinham entrado n'elle muitos demonios.
E rogavam-lhe que os não mandasse ir para o abysmo. (Abyssos g12)
32 There was a drove of many pigs close by feeding upon the hill-side; and the demons begged Jesus to give them leave to enter into them. Jesus gave them leave.
E andava ali pastando no monte uma manada de muitos porcos; e rogaram-lhe que lhes concedesse entrar n'elles; e concedeu-lh'o.
33 They came out from the man and took possession of the pigs; and the drove rushed down the steep slope into the lake and were drowned.
E, tendo saido os demonios do homem, entraram nos porcos, e a manada arrojou-se de um despenhadeiro no lago, e afogaram-se.
34 When the men who tended them saw what had happened, they ran away, and carried the news to the town, and to the country round.
E aquelles que os guardavam, vendo o que acontecera, fugiram, e foram annuncial-o na cidade e nos campos.
35 The people went out to see what had happened, and, when they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting, clothed and in his right mind, at Jesus’ feet; and they were awe-struck.
E sairam a vêr o que tinha acontecido, e vieram ter com Jesus; e acharam o homem, de quem haviam saido os demonios, vestido, e em seu juizo, assentado aos pés de Jesus: e temeram.
36 Those who had seen it told them how the possessed man had been delivered;
E os que tinham visto contaram-lhes tambem como fôra salvo aquelle endemoninhado.
37 upon which all the people in the neighbourhood of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave them, for they were terrified. Jesus got into a boat and returned.
E toda a multidão da terra dos gadarenos ao redor lhe rogou que se retirasse d'elles; porque estavam possuidos de grande temor. E, entrando elle no barco, voltou.
38 The man from whom the demons had gone out begged Jesus to let him be with him; but Jesus sent him away.
E aquelle homem, de quem haviam saido os demonios, rogou-lhe que o deixasse estar com elle; porém Jesus o despediu, dizendo:
39 “Go back to your home,” he said, “and relate the story of all that God has done for you.” So the man went through the whole town and proclaimed, as he went, all that Jesus had done for him.
Torna para tua casa, e conta quão grandes coisas te fez Deus. E elle foi apregoando por toda a cidade quão grandes coisas Jesus lhe tinha feito.
40 On his return, Jesus was welcomed by the people; for everyone was looking out for him.
E aconteceu que, voltando Jesus, a multidão o recebeu, porque todos o estavam esperando.
41 And a man named Jaeirus, who was a President of the Synagogue, came to Jesus, and threw himself at Jesus’ feet, with entreaties that he would come to his house,
E eis que chegou um varão, cujo nome era Jairo, e era principe da synagoga; e, prostrando-se aos pés de Jesus, rogava-lhe que entrasse em sua casa;
42 because his only daughter, who was about twelve years old, was dying. As Jesus was going, the people were pressing closely round him.
Porque tinha uma filha unica, quasi de doze annos, e estava á morte. E, indo elle, apertava-o a multidão.
43 And a woman, who had suffered from haemorrhage for twelve years, and whom no one could cure,
E uma mulher, que tinha um fluxo de sangue, havia doze annos, e gastara com os medicos todos os seus haveres, e por nenhum podéra ser curada,
44 came up behind and touched the tassel of his cloak. Instantly the haemorrhage ceased.
Chegando por detraz d'elle, tocou a orla do seu vestido, e o fluxo do seu sangue logo estancou.
45 “Who was it that touched me?” Jesus asked; and, while everyone was denying having done so, Peter exclaimed: “Why, Sir, the people are crowding round you and pressing upon you!”
E disse Jesus; Quem é que me tocou? E, negando todos, disse Pedro e os que estavam com elle: Mestre, a multidão te aperta e opprime, e dizes: Quem é que me tocou?
46 “Somebody touched me,” said Jesus; “for I felt that power had gone out from me.”
E disse Jesus: Alguem me tocou, porque bem conheci que de mim saiu virtude.
47 Then the woman, when she saw that she was discovered, came forward trembling, and threw herself down before him; and, in the presence of all the people, she told him her reason for touching him, and that she had been cured instantly.
Então a mulher, vendo que não se occultava, approximou-se tremendo, e, prostrando-se ante elle, declarou-lhe diante de todo o povo a causa por que o havia tocado, e como logo sarára.
48 “Daughter,” he said, “your faith has delivered you. Go, and peace be with you.”
E elle lhe disse: Tem bom animo, filha, a tua fé te salvou: vae em paz.
49 Before he had finished speaking, some one came from the house of the President of the Synagogue and said: “Your daughter is dead! Do not trouble the Teacher further.”
Estando elle ainda fallando, chegou um dos do principe da synagoga, dizendo: A tua filha já está morta, não incommodes o Mestre.
50 But Jesus, hearing this, spoke to the President: “Do not be afraid; only have faith, and she shall yet be delivered.”
Jesus, porém, ouvindo-o, respondeu-lhe, dizendo: Não temas; crê sómente, e será salva.
51 When he reached the house, he did not allow any one to go in with him, except Peter, John, and James, and the child’s father and mother.
E, entrando em casa, a ninguem deixou entrar, senão a Pedro, e a Thiago, e a João, e ao pae e á mãe da menina.
52 And every one was weeping and mourning for her. “Do not weep,” Jesus said, “she is not dead; she is asleep.”
E todos choravam, e a pranteavam; e elle disse: Não choreis; não está morta, mas dorme.
53 They began to laugh at him, for they knew that she was dead.
E riam-se d'elle, sabendo que estava morta.
54 But, taking her by the hand, Jesus said in a loud voice: “Child, rise!”
Porém elle, pondo-os todos fóra, e pegando-lhe na mão, clamou, dizendo: Levanta-te, menina.
55 The child’s spirit returned to her, and she instantly stood up; and Jesus ordered them to give her something to eat.
E o seu espirito voltou, e ella logo se levantou; e Jesus mandou que lhe déssem de comer.
56 Her parents were amazed, but Jesus impressed on them that they were not to tell any one what had happened.
E seus paes ficaram maravilhados; e elle lhes mandou que a ninguem dissessem o que havia succedido.
