1 Now news came to Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father-in-law, of all God had done for Moses and for Israel his people, and how the Lord had taken Israel out of Egypt.
1 Quando Jetro, o sacerdote de Midiã, sogro de Moisés, ouviu tudo que Deus havia feito a Moisés e a Israel, seu povo, e que o SENHOR havia tirado Israel do Egito,
2 And Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, took Zipporah, Moses' wife, after he had sent her away,
2 então Jetro, sogro de Moisés, tomou Zípora, esposa de Moisés, depois que ele a enviara de volta,
3 And her two sons, one of whom was named Gershom, for he said, I have been living in a strange land:
3 e seus dois filhos, dos quais o nome de um era Gérson, porque ele disse: Fui estrangeiro em uma terra estranha,
4 And the name of the other was Eliezer, for he said, The God of my father was my help, and kept me safe from the sword of Pharaoh:
4 o nome do outro era Eliézer, porque o Deus de meu pai, disse ele, foi minha ajuda, e me libertou da espada de Faraó,
5 And Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to where Moses had put up his tent in the waste land, by the mountain of God.
5 e Jetro, sogro de Moisés, veio com seus filhos e sua esposa a Moisés no deserto, onde ele acampava junto ao monte de Deus;
6 And he said to Moses, I, your father-in-law, have come to you, with your wife and your two sons.
6 e disse a Moisés: Eu, teu sogro Jetro, venho a ti, com tua esposa e os seus dois filhos com ela.
7 And Moses went out to his father-in-law, and went down on his face before him and gave him a kiss; and they said to one another, Are you well? and they came into the tent.
7 E Moisés saiu ao encontro de seu sogro, e inclinou-se e o beijou. E perguntaram-se pelo seu bem-estar, e entraram na tenda.
8 And Moses gave his father-in-law an account of all the Lord had done to Pharaoh and to the Egyptians because of Israel, and of all the troubles which had come on them by the way, and how the Lord had given them salvation.
8 E Moisés contou a seu sogro tudo que o SENHOR havia feito a Faraó e aos egípcios por causa de Israel, e toda a aflição que os acometera no caminho, e como o SENHOR os livrara.
9 And Jethro was glad because the Lord had been good to Israel, freeing them from the power of the Egyptians.
9 E Jetro se alegrou por toda a bondade que o SENHOR havia feito a Israel, a quem havia libertado da mão dos egípcios.
10 And Jethro said, Praise be to the Lord, who has taken you out of the hand of Pharaoh and out of the hand of the Egyptians; freeing the people from the yoke of the Egyptians.
10 E Jetro disse: Bendito seja o SENHOR, que vos livrou da mão dos egípcios, e da mão de Faraó; que livrou o povo de debaixo da mão dos egípcios.
11 Now I am certain that the Lord is greater than all gods, for he has overcome them in their pride.
11 Agora eu sei que o SENHOR é maior que todos os deuses, naquilo em que se ensoberbeceram, ele prevaleceu contra eles.
12 Then Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, made a burned offering to God: and Aaron came, with the chiefs of Israel, and had a meal with Moses' father-in-law, before God.
12 E Jetro, sogro de Moisés, tomou uma oferta queimada e sacrifícios para Deus. E veio Arão, e todos os anciãos de Israel, para comer pão com o sogro de Moisés diante de Deus.
13 Now on the day after, Moses took his seat to give decisions for the people: and the people were waiting before Moses from morning till evening.
13 E aconteceu que ao amanhecer, Moisés sentou-se para julgar o povo. E o povo estava em pé diante de Moisés desde a manhã até a tarde.
14 And when Moses' father-in-law saw all he was doing, he said, What is this you are doing for the people? why are you seated here by yourself, with all the people waiting before you from morning till evening?
14 E quando o sogro de Moisés viu tudo que ele fazia ao povo, disse: O que é isto que fazes ao povo? Por que te assentas sozinho, e todo o povo fica em pé diante de ti desde a manhã até a tarde?
15 And Moses said to his father-in-law, Because the people come to me to get directions from God:
15 E disse Moisés a seu sogro: Porque o povo vem a mim para perguntar a Deus.
16 And if they have any question between themselves, they come to me, and I am judge between a man and his neighbour, and I give them the orders and laws of God.
16 Quando eles têm uma questão, vêm a mim, e eu julgo entre um e outro, e os faço saber os estatutos de Deus, e suas leis.
17 And Moses' father-in-law said to him, What you are doing is not good.
17 E o sogro de Moisés lhe disse: O que estás fazendo não é bom.
18 Your strength and that of the people will be completely used up: this work is more than you are able to do by yourself.
18 Certamente desfalecerás, tu e este povo que está contigo, porque isto é muito pesado para ti; não és capaz de realizar isto sozinho.
19 Give ear now to my suggestion, and may God be with you: you are to be the people's representative before God, taking their causes to him:
19 Ouve a minha voz: Dar-te-ei conselho, e Deus será contigo; sê tu pelo povo diante de Deus, para que leves as causas a Deus;
20 Teaching them his rules and his laws, guiding them in the way they have to go, and making clear to them the work they have to do.
20 e tu lhes ensinarás as ordens e leis, e lhes mostrarás o caminho em que devem andar, e a obra que devem realizar.
21 But for the rest, take from among the people able men, such as have the fear of God, true men hating profits wrongly made; and put such men over them, to be captains of thousands, captains of hundreds and of fifties and of tens;
21 Além disso, tu proverás de todo o povo homens capazes, tementes a Deus, homens da verdade, que aborreçam a avareza, e os colocarás sobre eles, para serem governantes de mil, e governantes de cem, governantes de cinquenta e governantes de dez.
22 And let them be judges in the causes of the people at all times: and let them put before you all important questions, but in small things let them give decisions themselves: in this way, it will be less hard for you, and they will take the weight off you.
22 Para que julguem o povo em todo o tempo. E será que, toda causa grave eles trarão a ti, mas toda causa pequena eles julgarão; assim será mais fácil para ti, e eles carregarão a carga contigo.
23 If you do this, and God gives approval, then you will be able to go on without weariness, and all this people will go to their tents in peace.
23 Se fizeres isto, e Deus te ordenar assim, então serás capaz de suportar, e todo este povo também voltará a seu lugar em paz.
24 So Moses took note of the words of his father-in-law, and did as he had said.
24 Então Moisés ouviu a voz do seu sogro, e fez tudo que ele dissera.
25 And he made selection of able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, captains of thousands, captains of hundreds and of fifties and of tens.
25 E Moisés escolheu homens capazes de todo o Israel, e os fez por cabeças sobre o povo; governantes de mil, governantes de cem, governantes de cinquenta e governantes de dez.
26 And they were judges in the causes of the people at all times: the hard questions they put before Moses; but on every small point they gave decisions themselves.
26 E eles julgaram o povo em todo o tempo; as causas graves traziam a Moisés, mas toda causa pequena julgavam eles mesmos.
27 And Moses let his father-in-law go away, and he went back to his land.
27 E Moisés deixou seu sogro partir. E ele seguiu o caminho para a sua própria terra.
