Neemias 6
The Book of Mormon (BOM) vs NVT
1 [Revelation given to Joseph Smith the Prophet and Oliver Cowdery, at Harmony, Pennsylvania, April 1829. HC 1: 32-35. Oliver Cowdery began his labors as scribe in the translation of the Book of Mormon, April 7, 1829. He had already received a divine manifestation of the truth of the Prophet's testimony respecting the plates on which was engraved the Book of Mormon record. The Prophet inquired of the Lord through the Urim and Thummim and received this response.] A GREAT and marvelous work is about to come forth unto the children of men.
1 Sambalate, Tobias, Gesém, o árabe, e o restante de nossos inimigos descobriram que eu havia terminado de reconstruir o muro e que não restavam brechas, embora as portas ainda não tivessem sido colocadas em seus lugares.
2 Behold, I am God; give heed unto my word, which is quick and powerful, sharper than a two-edged sword, to the dividing asunder of both joints and marrow; therefore give heed unto my words.
2 Então Sambalate e Gesém enviaram uma mensagem pedindo que eu me encontrasse com eles num dos povoados da planície de Ono. Sabendo que eles planejavam me fazer mal,
3 Behold, the field is white already to harvest; therefore, whoso desireth to reap, let him thrust in his sickle with his might, and reap while the day lasts, that he may treasure up for his soul everlasting salvation in the kingdom of God.
3 respondi com a seguinte mensagem: “Estou envolvido com uma obra muito importante e não posso ir. Por que eu deveria interromper o trabalho para me encontrar com vocês?”.
4 Yea, whosoever will thrust in his sickle and reap, the same is called of God.
4 Quatro vezes eles enviaram a mesma mensagem, e cada vez lhes respondi da mesma forma.
5 Therefore, if you will ask of me you shall receive; if you will knock it shall be opened unto you.
5 Na quinta vez, o servo de Sambalate trouxe nas mãos uma carta aberta,
6 Now, as you have asked, behold, I say unto you, keep my commandments, and seek to bring forth and establish the cause of Zion;
6 que dizia: “Há um boato entre as nações vizinhas, e Gesém
7 Seek not for riches but for wisdom, and behold, the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto you, and then shall you be made rich. Behold, he that hath eternal life is rich.
7 Corre a notícia de que você nomeou profetas em Jerusalém para proclamarem a seu respeito: ‘Olhem! Há um rei em Judá!’. “Pode ter certeza de que essa informação chegará ao conhecimento do rei. Sugiro, portanto, que venha conversar comigo”.
8 Verily, verily, I say unto you, even as you desire of me so it shall be unto you; and if you desire, you shall be the means of doing much good in this generation.
8 Eu lhe respondi: “Nada do que você diz é verdade. É tudo invenção sua”.
9 Say nothing but repentance unto this generation; keep my commandments, and assist to bring forth my work, according to my commandments, and you shall be blessed.
9 Estavam apenas tentando nos intimidar e imaginavam que iríamos interromper a obra. Assim, continuei o trabalho com determinação ainda maior.
10 Behold thou hast a gift, and blessed art thou because of thy gift. Remember it is sacred and cometh from above-
10 Algum tempo depois, fui visitar Semaías, filho de Delaías e neto de Meetabel, que não podia sair de sua casa. Ele disse: “Vamos nos encontrar no templo de Deus e trancar as portas. Esta noite seus inimigos virão matá-lo”.
11 And if thou wilt inquire, thou shalt know mysteries which are great and marvelous; therefore thou shalt exercise thy gift, that thou mayest find out mysteries, that thou mayest bring many to the knowledge of the truth, yea, convince them of the error of their ways.
11 Eu, porém, respondi: “Alguém de minha posição deve fugir do perigo? Alguém como eu deve entrar no templo para salvar a vida? Não farei isso!”.
12 Make not thy gift known unto any save it be those who are of thy faith. Trifle not with sacred things.
12 Percebi que Deus não tinha falado com Semaías, mas que ele havia sido contratado por Sambalate e Tobias para anunciar essa profecia contra mim.
13 If thou wilt do good, yea, and hold out faithful to the end, thou shalt be saved in the kingdom of God, which is the greatest of all the gifts of God; for there is no gift greater than the gift of salvation.
13 Eles esperavam me intimidar e me fazer pecar. Assim, poderiam me difamar e me desacreditar.
14 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, blessed art thou for what thou hast done; for thou hast inquired of me, and behold, as often as thou hast inquired thou hast received instruction of my Spirit. If it had not been so, thou wouldst not have come to the place where thou art at this time.
14 Lembra-te, ó meu Deus, de todo mal feito por Tobias e Sambalate. E lembra-te da profetisa Noadia e de todos os outros profetas que tentaram me intimidar.
15 Behold, thou knowest that thou hast inquired of me and I did enlighten thy mind; and now I tell thee these things that thou mayest know that thou hast been enlightened by the Spirit of truth;
15 Por fim, no dia 2 de outubro, 52 dias depois de começarmos o trabalho, o muro ficou pronto.
16 Yea, I tell thee, that thou mayest know that there is none else save God that knowest thy thoughts and the intents of thy heart.
16 Quando nossos inimigos e as nações vizinhas souberam disso, ficaram assustados e sentiram-se humilhados. Perceberam que a obra havia sido realizada com a ajuda de nosso Deus.
17 I tell thee these things as a witness unto thee-that the words or the work which thou hast been writing are true.
17 Durante esses 52 dias, Tobias e os nobres de Judá trocaram várias cartas.
18 Therefore be diligent; stand by my servant Joseph, faithfully, in whatsoever difficult circumstances he may be for the word's sake.
18 Muitos em Judá haviam jurado lealdade a Tobias, pois seu sogro era Secanias, filho de Ará, e seu filho Joanã era casado com a filha de Mesulão, filho de Berequias.
19 Admonish him in his faults, and also receive admonition of him. Be patient; be sober; be temperate; have patience, faith, hope and charity.
19 Eles sempre me falavam das boas ações de Tobias e lhe contavam tudo que eu dizia. E Tobias continuava a mandar cartas de ameaça para me intimidar.
20 Behold, thou art Oliver, and I have spoken unto thee because of thy desires; therefore treasure up these words in thy heart. Be faithful and diligent in keeping the commandments of God, and I will encircle thee in the arms of my love.
