VC Versão Católica

¹ AND it came to pass that the days of Ether were in the days of Coriantumr; and Coriantumr was king over all the land.

¹ Estando seu reino constituído e firmado, Roboão abandonou a Lei do Senhor, e todo o Israel seguiu-lhe o exemplo.

² And Ether was a prophet of the Lord; wherefore Ether came forth in the days of Coriantumr, and began to prophesy unto the people, for he could not be restrained because of the Spirit of the Lord which was in him.

² Durante o quinto ano de seu reinado, por causa dos pecados de Jerusalém contra o Senhor, Sesac, rei do Egito, veio atacar a cidade

³ For he did cry from the morning, even until the going down of the sun, exhorting the people to believe in God unto repentance lest they should be destroyed, saying unto them that by faith all things are fulfilled-

³ com 1.200 carros e 60.000 cavaleiros. Um inumerável exército de líbios, suquitas e etíopes acompanhavam-no desde o Egito.

⁴ Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea, even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh an anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God.

⁴ Apoderou-se das cidades fortes de Judá e chegou a Jerusalém.

⁵ And it came to pass that Ether did prophesy great and marvelous things unto the people, which they did not believe, because they saw them not.

⁵ O profeta Semaías dirigiu-se a Roboão e aos chefes de Judá que se tinham concentrado em Jerusalém, com a aproximação de Sesac. Eis, disse-lhes ele, o que diz o Senhor: Vós me abandonastes; eu também vos abandono nas mãos de Sesac.

⁶ And now, I, Moroni, would speak somewhat concerning these things; I would show unto the world that faith is things which are hoped for and not seen; wherefore, dispute not because ye see not, for ye receive no witness until after the trial of your faith.

⁶ Então os chefes israelitas e o rei se humilharam e disseram: O Senhor é justo.

⁷ For it was by faith that Christ showed himself unto our fathers, after he had risen from the dead; and he showed not himself unto them until after they had faith in him; wherefore, it must needs be that some had faith in him, for he showed himself not unto the world.

⁷ Em vista deste ato de humildade, a palavra do Senhor foi dirigida a Semaías nestes termos: Eles se humilharam; não os deitarei a perder. Dar-lhes-ei em breve um meio de salvação. Minha ira não se desencadeará sobre Jerusalém pela mão de Sesac.

⁸ But because of the faith of men he has shown himself unto the world, and glorified the name of the Father, and prepared a way that thereby others might be partakers of the heavenly gift, that they might hope for those things which they have not seen.

⁸ Mas eles terão que servir para que saibam distinguir entre o meu serviço e o serviço dos reis estrangeiros.

⁹ Wherefore, ye may also have hope, and be partakers of the gift, if ye will but have faith.
