Isaías 11
1 Porque sairá uma vara do tronco de Jessé, e um renovo crescerá das suas raízes.
[Like] [MET] a [new] shoot [often] grows from the stump [of a tree], there will be a descendant of King David who will be a new king.
2 E repousará sobre ele o espírito do Senhor, o espírito de sabedoria e de inteligência, o espírito de conselho e de fortaleza, o espírito de conhecimento e do temor do Senhor.
The Spirit of Yahweh will always be with him. The Spirit will enable him to be wise and to understand [much about many things]. The Spirit will enable him to decide what is good to do, and will enable him to be very powerful. The Spirit will enable him to know Yahweh and to revere him.
3 E o seu deleite será no temor do Senhor: e não julgará segundo a vista dos seus olhos, nem repreenderá segundo o ouvir dos seus ouvidos,
He will be glad to obey Yahweh. He will not decide [whether someone is righteous or not only] by seeing what that person looks like, or by listening to [what others say about that person].
4 Mas julgará com justiça aos pobres, e repreenderá com equidade aos mansos da terra, porém ferirá a terra com a vara de sua boca, e com o assopro dos seus lábios matará ao ímpio
He will judge [the cases of] needy people fairly; and he will act justly toward poor people. He will punish evil people as a result of what he decides [MTY]; he will get rid of wicked people because of [MTY] [their behavior].
5 Porque a justiça será o cinto dos seus lombos, e a verdade o cinto dos seus rins.
He will always act righteously; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a belt [around his waist]. He will always speak what is true; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a sash [around his waist].
6 E morará o lobo com o cordeiro, e o leopardo com o cabrito se deitará, e o bezerro, e o filho de leão e o animal cevado andarão juntos, e um menino pequeno os guiará.
[When he becomes king], wolves and lambs will live together [peacefully]; leopards, [instead of killing] baby goats, will lie down with them. [Similarly], calves and lions will eat food together; and a young child will take care of them.
7 A vaca e a ursa pastarão juntas, seus filhos se deitarão juntos, e o leão comerá palha como o boi
Cows and bears will eat [together]; bear cubs and calves will lie down together. Lions will [not eat other animals]; [instead], they will eat hay like cows do.
8 E brincará a criança de peito sobre o buraco do áspide, e o já desmamado meterá a sua mão na cova do basilisco.
Babies will play [safely] near the holes where cobra snakes [live]; small children will [even] put their hands into nests of poisonous snakes, [and the snakes will not harm them].
9 Não se fará mal mem dano algum em nenhuma parte de todo o monte da minha santidade, porque a terra se encherá do conhecimento do Senhor, como as águas cobrem o fundo do mar.
No creatures will harm or kill other creatures on [Zion Hill], my holy hill; and the earth will [be filled with people who] know Yahweh like [SIM] the seas are full of water.
10 Porque acontecerá naquele dia que as nações perguntarão pela raiz de Jessé, posta por pendão dos povos, e o seu repouso será glorioso.
At that time, a descendant of King David will [hold up] a flag to signal to the people of all people-groups [that they should gather around him]; they will come to him to get his advice, and the place where he lives will be glorious.
11 Porque há de acontecer naquele dia que o Senhor tornará a pôr a sua mão para adquirir outra vez os resíduos do seu povo, que restarem da Assyria, e do Egito, e de Pathros, e da Ethiopia, e de Elam, e de Sinear, e de Hamath, e das ilhas do mar.
At that time, Yahweh will (reach out his hand/use his power) as he did long ago; he will enable those who had been (exiled from/forced to leave) Israel to return home, from Assyria, from northern Egypt, from southern Egypt, from Ethiopia, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath, and from all the distant countries near the sea.
12 E levantará um pendão entre as nações, e ajuntará os desterrados de Israel, e os dispersos de Judá congregará desde os quatro confins da terra
Yahweh will raise his flag among [all] the people-groups, and he will gather together the people of Israel who had been exiled [long ago]. He will gather from very distant places [IDM] on the earth the people of Judah who [(had been scattered to/are living in) those places].
13 E a inveja de Ephraim se desviará, e os adversários de Judá serão desarraigados: Ephraim não invejará a Judá e Judá não oprimirá a Ephraim.
[Then], the people of Israel and the people of Judah will not be jealous of each other [any longer], and they will no [longer] be enemies of each other.
14 Antes voarão sobre os ombros dos philisteus ao ocidente, juntos despojarão aos do oriente: em Edom e Moab porão as suas mãos, e os filhos de Ammon lhes obedecerão.
Their [armies] will [join together to] attack the people of Philistia to the west. And together they will attack nations to the east; they will [defeat those nations and] take away all their valuable possessions. They will capture [the areas of] Edom and Moab, and the people of the Ammon people-group will be controlled/ruled by the people of Israel and Judah.
15 E o Senhor destruirá totalmente o braço do mar do Egito, e moverá a sua mão contra o rio com a força do seu vento, e o ferirá nas sete correntes e fará que se passe por ele com sapatos.
Yahweh will make a dry road through the sea near Egypt. And [it will be as though] he will wave his hand over the [Euphrates] River and send a strong wind to cause it to divide into seven streams, with the result that people will be able to walk across [those streams].
16 E haverá caminho plano para os resíduos do seu povo, que restarem da Assyria, como sucedeu a Israel no dia em que subiu da terra do Egito.
And because he will make a highway for his people who are living in Assyria, they will be able to return [to their own land], just like [long ago] he made a path for [the people of] Israel [so that they could go through the water] when they left Egypt.
