Atos 7
1 E disse o summo sacerdote: Porventura é isto assim?
The high priest said, "Are these things so?"
2 E elle disse: Varões, irmãos, e paes, ouvi. O Deus da gloria appareceu a nosso pae Abrahão, estando na Mesopotamia, antes de habitar em Haran,
He said, "Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Avraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,
3 E disse-lhe: Sae da tua terra e d'entre a tua parentela, e dirige-te á terra que eu te mostrarei.
and said to him, 'Go out from your land and from your relatives, and come into a land which I will show you.'
4 Então saiu da terra dos chaldeos, e habitou em Haran. E d'ali, depois que seu pae falleceu, o fez passar para esta terra em que agora habitaes.
Then he came out of the land of the Kasdim, and lived in Haran. From there, after his father died, he moved him into this land, where you are now living.
5 E não lhe deu n'ella herança, nem ainda o espaço de um pé: mas prometteu que lh'a daria em possessão, e depois d'elle á sua descendencia, não tendo elle ainda filho.
He gave him no inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on. He promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his descendants after him, when he still had no child.
6 E fallou Deus assim: Que a sua descendencia seria peregrina em terra alheia, e a sujeitariam á escravidão, e a maltratariam por quatrocentos annos.
But God spoke in this way, 'His descendants will live as strangers in a foreign land, and that they will be slaves and mistreated, for four hundred years.
7 E eu julgarei a nação a quem servirem, disse Deus. E depois d'isto sairão, e me servirão n'este logar.
But I will judge the nation to which they will be in bondage,' said God, 'and after that will they come out, and serve me in this place.'
8 E deu-lhe o pacto da circumcisão; e assim gerou a Isaac, e o circumcidou ao oitavo dia: e Isaac gerou a Jacob, e Jacob aos doze patriarchas.
He gave him the covenant of circumcision. So Avraham became the father of Iskhaq, and circumcised him the eighth day. Iskhaq became the father of Yaquv, and Yaquv became the father of the twelve patriarchs.
9 E os patriarchas, movidos de inveja, venderam a José para o Egypto; e Deus era com elle,
"The patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Yauseph, sold him into Egypt; and God was with him,
10 E livrou-o de todas as suas tribulações, e lhe deu graça e sabedoria ante Pharaó, rei do Egypto, que o constituiu governador sobre o Egypto e toda a sua casa.
and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. He made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
11 E a todo o paiz do Egypto e de Canaan sobreveiu fome e grande tribulação; e nossos paes não achavam alimentos.
Now a famine came over all Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction, and our fathers found no food.
12 Porém Jacob, ouvindo que no Egypto havia trigo, enviou ali nossos paes, a primeira vez.
But when Yaquv heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers the first time.
13 E na segunda foi José conhecido por seus irmãos, e a linhagem de José foi manifesta a Pharaó.
On the second time Yauseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph's family became known to Pharaoh.
14 E José mandou chamar a seu pae Jacob, e a toda a sua parentela, que era de setenta e cinco almas.
Then Yauseph sent, and summoned Yaquv, his father, and all his relatives, seventy-five souls.
15 E Jacob desceu ao Egypto, e morreu, elle e nossos paes;
Yaquv went down into Egypt, and he died, himself and our fathers,
16 E foram transportados para Sichem, e depositados na sepultura que Abrahão comprara por certa somma de dinheiro aos filhos de Hemor, pae de Sichem.
and they were brought back to Shechem, and placed in the tomb that Avraham bought for a price in silver from the children of Hamor in Shechem.
17 Approximando-se, porém, o tempo da promessa que Deus tinha jurado a Abrahão, o povo cresceu e se multiplicou no Egypto;
"But as the time of the promise came close which God had made to Avraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
18 Até que se levantou outro rei, que não conhecia a José.
until 'there arose a different king over Egypt, who did not know Yauseph.'
19 Este, usando de astucia contra a nossa linhagem, maltratou nossos paes, ao ponto de lhes fazer engeitar as suas creanças, para que não se multiplicassem.
The same took advantage of our race, and mistreated our fathers, and forced them to throw out their babies, so that they would not stay alive.
20 N'esse tempo nasceu Moysés, e era mui formoso, e foi criado tres mezes em casa de seu pae.
At that time Mushe was born, and was exceedingly handsome. He was nourished three months in his father's house.
21 E, sendo engeitado, tomou-o a filha do Pharaó, e o criou como seu filho.
When he was thrown out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and reared him as her own son.
22 E Moysés foi instruido em toda a sciencia dos egypcios; e era poderoso em suas palavras e obras.
Mushe was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. He was mighty in his words and works.
23 E, quando completou o tempo de quarenta annos, veiu-lhe ao coração ir visitar seus irmãos, os filhos d'Israel.
But when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the people of Israyel.
24 E, vendo maltratado um d'elles, o defendeu, e vingou o offendido, matando o egypcio.
Seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him who was oppressed, striking the Egyptian.
25 E elle cuidava que seus irmãos entenderiam que Deus lhes havia de dar a liberdade pela sua mão; porém elles não entenderam.
He supposed that his brothers understood that God, by his hand, was giving them deliverance; but they did not understand.
26 E no dia seguinte, pelejando elles, foi por elles visto, e quiz leval-os á paz, dizendo: Varões, sois irmãos; porque vos aggravaes um ao outro?
"The day following, he appeared to them as they fought, and urged them to be at peace again, saying, 'Men, you are brothers. Why do you wrong one another?'
27 E o que offendia o seu proximo o repelliu, dizendo: Quem te constituiu principe e juiz sobre nós?
But he who did his neighbor wrong pushed him away, saying, 'Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?
28 Queres tu matar-me, como hontem mataste o egypcio?
Do you want to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?'
29 E a esta palavra fugiu Moysés, e esteve como estrangeiro na terra de Madian, onde gerou dois filhos.
Mushe fled at this saying, and became a stranger in the land of Medyan, where he became the father of two sons.
30 E, completados quarenta annos, appareceu-lhe o anjo do Senhor, no deserto do monte Sinai, n'uma chamma de fogo de um sarçal.
"When forty years were fulfilled, an angel appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 Então Moysés, vendo-o, se maravilhou da visão; e, approximando-se para vêr, foi-lhe dirigida a voz do Senhor,
When Mushe saw it, he wondered at the sight. As he came close to see, a voice of the Lord came,
32 Dizendo: Eu sou o Deus de teus paes, o Deus d'Abrahão, e o Deus d'Isaac e o Deus de Jacob. E Moysés, todo tremulo, não ousava olhar.
'I am the God of your fathers, the God of Avraham, and of Iskhaq, and of Yaquv.' Mushe trembled, and dared not look.
33 E disse-lhe o Senhor: Descalça as alparcas dos teus pés, porque o logar em que estás é terra sancta:
The Lord said to him, 'Take your sandals off of your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.
34 Tenho visto attentamente a afflicção do meu povo que está no Egypto, e ouvi os seus gemidos, e desci a livral-os. Agora, pois, vem, e enviar-te-hei ao Egypto.
I have surely seen the affliction of my people that is in Egypt, and have heard their groaning. I have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send you to Egypt.'
35 A este Moysés, ao qual haviam negado, dizendo: Quem te constituiu principe e juiz? a este enviou Deus como principe e libertador, pela mão do anjo que lhe apparecera no sarçal.
"This Mushe, whom they refused, saying, 'Who made you a ruler and a judge?'—God has sent him as both a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
36 Este os conduziu para fóra, fazendo prodigios e signaes na terra do Egypto, e no Mar Vermelho, e no deserto, por quarenta annos.
This man led them out, having worked wonders and signs in Egypt, in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years.
37 Este é aquelle Moysés que disse aos filhos d'Israel: O Senhor vosso Deus vos levantará d'entre vossos irmãos um propheta como eu; a elle ouvireis.
This is that Mushe, who said to the people of Israyel, 'God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me.'
38 Este é o que esteve entre a congregação no deserto, com o anjo que lhe fallava no monte Sinai, e com nossos paes, o qual recebeu as palavras de vida para nol-as dar.
This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness with the angel that spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, who received words of life to give to us,
39 Ao qual nossos paes não quizeram obedecer, antes o rejeitaram, e de coração se tornaram ao Egypto,
to whom our fathers would not be obedient, but rejected him, and turned back in their hearts to Egypt,
40 Dizendo a Aarão: Faze-nos deuses que vão adiante de nós; porque a esse Moysés, que nos tirou da terra do Egypto, não sabemos o que lhe aconteceu.
saying to Ahrun, 'Make us gods that will go before us, for as for this Mushe, who led us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.'
41 E n'aquelles dias fizeram o bezerro, e offereceram sacrificios ao idolo, e se alegraram nas obras das suas mãos.
They made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their hands.
42 E Deus se affastou, e os abandonou a que servissem ao exercito do céu, como está escripto no livro dos prophetas: Porventura me offerecestes victimas e sacrificios no deserto por quarenta annos, ó casa d'Israel?
But God turned, and gave them over to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets, 'Did you offer to me sacrifices and offerings forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israyel?
43 Antes tomastes o tabernaculo de Molech, e a estrella do vosso deus Remphan, figuras que vós fizestes para as adorar. Transportar-vos-hei pois para além de Babylonia.
You took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Rephan, the images that you made to worship them. Therefore I will exile you beyond Babylon.'
44 Estava entre nossos paes no deserto o tabernaculo do testemunho, como ordenara aquelle que disse a Moysés que o fizesse segundo o modelo que tinha visto.
"Our fathers had the tabernacle of the testimony in the wilderness, even as he who spoke to Mushe commanded him to make it according to the pattern that he had seen;
45 O qual nossos paes, recebendo-o tambem, o levaram com Josué quando entraram na possessão das nações que Deus expulsou da face de nossos paes, até aos dias de David:
which also our fathers, in their turn, brought in with Joshua when they entered into the possession of the nations, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, to the days of Dawid,
46 Que achou graça diante de Deus, e pediu para achar tabernaculo para o Deus de Jacob.
who found favor in the sight of God, and asked to find a habitation for the God of Yaquv.
47 E Salomão lhe edificou casa;
But Shelemun built him a house.
48 Mas o Altissimo não habita em templos feitos por mãos d'homens, como diz o propheta:
However, the Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says,
49 O céu é o meu throno, e a terra o estrado dos meus pés. Que casa me edificareis? diz o Senhor: ou qual é o logar do meu repouso?
'Heaven is my throne, and the earth a footstool for my feet. What kind of house will you build me?' says the Lord; 'or what is the place of my rest?
50 Porventura não fez a minha mão todas estas coisas?
Did not my hand make all these things?'
51 Duros de cerviz, e incircumcisos de coração e ouvidos: vós sempre resistis ao Espirito Sancto; tambem vós sois como vossos paes.
"You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Rukha d'Qudsha. As your fathers did, so you do.
52 A qual dos prophetas não perseguiram vossos paes? Até mataram os que anteriormente annunciaram a vinda do Justo, do qual vós agora fostes traidores e homicidas;
Which of the prophets did not your fathers persecute? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, of whom you have now become betrayers and murderers.
53 Vos, que recebestes a lei por disposição dos anjos, e não a guardastes.
You received the Law as it was ordained by angels, and did not keep it."
54 E, ouvindo estas coisas, enfureciam-se em seus corações, e rangiam os dentes contra elle.
Now when they heard these things, they were furious, and they ground their teeth at him.
55 Mas elle, estando cheio do Espirito Sancto, fixando os olhos no céu, viu a gloria de Deus, e Jesus, que estava á direita de Deus;
But he, being full of the Rukha d'Qudsha, looked up steadfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Yeshua standing on the right hand of God.
56 E disse: Eis que vejo os céus abertos, e o Filho do homem, que está em pé á mão direita de Deus
And he said, "Look, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God."
57 Elles, porém, clamando com grande voz, taparam os seus ouvidos, e arremetteram unanimes contra elle.
But they shouted out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and rushed at him with one accord.
58 E, expulsando-o da cidade, o apedrejavam. E as testemunhas depozeram os seus vestidos aos pés de um mancebo chamado Saulo.
They threw him out of the city, and stoned him. The witnesses placed their garments at the feet of a young man named Shaul.
59 E apedrejaram a Estevão, invocando elle ao Senhor, e dizendo: Senhor Jesus, recebe o meu espirito.
They stoned Astapanos as he called out, saying, "Lord Yeshua, receive my spirit."
60 E, pondo-se de joelhos, clamou com grande voz: Senhor, não lhes imputes este peccado. E, tendo dito isto, adormeceu.
He kneeled down, and shouted out, "Lord, do not hold this sin against them." When he had said this, he fell asleep.
