Atos 7
Bible in Worldwide English NT (BWE) vs VC
1 Then the high priest asked, Is this true?
1 Perguntou-lhe então o sumo sacerdote: É realmente assim?
2 Stephen replied, Men, brothers and fathers, listen to me. When our father Abraham was in the country of Mesopotamia, before he lived in the country of Haran, the God who is great and wonderful came to him.
2 Respondeu ele: Irmãos e pais, escutai. O Deus da glória apareceu a nosso pai Abraão, quando estava na Mesopotâmia, antes de ir morar em Harã.
3 God said, "Leave your country and your family and come to the country that I will show you."
3 E disse-lhe: Sai de teu país e de tua parentela, e vai para a terra que eu te mostrar {Gn 12,1}.
4 Then Abraham came out of the country of the Chaldeans and lived for a while in the country of Haran. After his father died, God led him from there to this country where you are living now.
4 Ele saiu da terra dos caldeus, e foi habitar em Harã. Dali, depois que lhe faleceu o pai, Deus o fez passar para esta terra, em que vós agora habitais.
5 But God did not give any of the land to Abraham, not even a small part. But he promised that the land would belong to him. After him it would belong to his children, even though he did not have a child then.
5 Não lhe deu nela propriedade alguma, nem sequer um palmo de terra, mas prometeu dar-lha em posse, e depois dele à sua posteridade, quando ainda não tinha filho algum.
6 This is what God told Abraham. He told him that his children would travel and live in another land. They would be slaves to the people there. They would have a hard time for four hundred years.
6 Eis como falou Deus: Tua descendência habitará em terra estranha e será reduzida à escravidão e maltratada pelo espaço de quatrocentos anos.
7 And God said, "I will judge the people who make them slaves. After that, they will come out of that land and serve me here."
7 Mas eu julgarei a nação que os dominar - diz o Senhor -, e eles sairão e me prestarão culto neste lugar {Gn 15,13s.; Ex 3,12}.
8 God made the agreement of circumcision with Abraham. Abraham had a son Isaac. He made the mark of circumcision on the childs body and circumcised him on the eighth day. Isaac had a son Jacob, and Jacob had twelve sons who were our fathers.
8 E deu-lhe a aliança da circuncisão. Assim, Abraão teve um filho, Isaac, e, passados oito dias, o circuncidou; e Isaac, a Jacó; e Jacó, os doze patriarcas.
9 Because they were jealous, they sold Joseph to be a slave in the country of Egypt. But God was with Joseph.
9 Os patriarcas, invejosos de José, venderam-no para o Egito. Mas Deus estava com ele.
10 He took him out of all his troubles. He blessed him and made him wise in the eyes of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. Pharaoh made him president in Egypt and a ruler over all the people of his house.
10 Livrou-o de todas as suas tribulações e deu-lhe graça e sabedoria diante do faraó, rei do Egito, que o fez governador do Egito e chefe de sua casa.
11 For a long, long time there was no rain in Egypt and Canaan. And so there was very little food. This caused much trouble. Our fathers had nothing to eat.
11 Sobreveio depois uma fome a todo o Egito e Canaã. Grande era a tribulação, e os nossos pais não achavam o que comer.
12 Then Jacob heard that there was food in Egypt. He sent his sons on their first trip to buy some. They were our fathers of long ago.
12 Mas quando Jacó soube que havia trigo no Egito, enviou pela primeira vez os nossos pais para lá.
13 The second time they went, Joseph told his brothers who he was. And Pharaoh found out who Josephs family was.
13 Na segunda, foi José reconhecido por seus irmãos, e foi descoberta ao faraó a sua origem.
14 Then Joseph sent for Jacob his father and all the family to come. There were seventy-five people.
14 Enviando mensageiros, José mandou vir seu pai Jacó com toda a sua família, que constava de setenta e cinco pessoas.
15 So Jacob went to Egypt. There he and our fathers died.
15 Jacó desceu ao Egito e morreu ali, como também nossos pais.
16 They were taken back to the place called Shechem and buried. Abraham had bought a grave from the family of Hamor in Shechem. He had paid money for it.
16 Seus corpos foram trasladados para Siquém, e foram postos no sepulcro que Abraão tinha comprado, a peso de dinheiro, dos filhos de Hemor, de Siquém.
17 Then it was almost time for God to do what he had promised to Abraham. The family of Jacob had become very large in Egypt.
17 Aproximava-se o tempo em que devia realizar-se a promessa que Deus havia jurado a Abraão. O povo cresceu e se multiplicou no Egito
18 Then a new king who did not know Joseph ruled over Egypt.
18 até que se levantou outro rei no Egito, o qual nada sabia de José.
19 This king was not kind to our fathers but he gave them a hard time. They had to put their babies outside to die.
19 Este rei, usando de astúcia contra a nossa raça, maltratou nossos pais e obrigou-os a enjeitar seus filhos para privá-los da vida.
20 Moses was born during that time. He was a very fine baby. For three months he was raised in his own fathers home.
20 Por este mesmo tempo, nasceu Moisés. Era belo aos olhos de Deus e por três meses foi criado na casa paterna.
21 When he was put outside to die, Pharaohs daughter took him. She raised him as her own son.
21 Depois, quando foi exposto, a filha do faraó o recolheu e o criou como seu próprio filho.
22 Moses was taught all the things the Egyptians knew. He knew how to talk and could do great things.
22 Moisés foi instruído em todas as ciências dos egípcios e tornou-se forte em palavras e obras.
23 When he was forty years old he decided to visit his own family, the people of Israel.
23 Quando completou 40 anos, veio-lhe à mente visitar seus irmãos, os filhos de Israel.
24 There he saw one of them being hurt by an Egyptian. So he helped him. He fought for him and knocked down the Egyptian.
24 Viu que um deles era maltratado; tomou-lhe a defesa e vingou o que padecia a injúria, matando o egípcio.
25 He thought his people would know that God wanted him to make them free. But they did not understand.
25 Ele esperava que os seus irmãos compreendessem que Deus se servia de sua mão para livrá-los. Mas não o entenderam.
26 The next day he saw two of his own people fighting and he wanted to make peace. "You are brothers," he said. "Why are you fighting?"
26 No dia seguinte, dois dentre eles brigavam, e ele procurou reconciliá-los: Amigos, disse ele, sois irmãos, por que vos maltratais um ao outro?
27 But the one who was fighting his neighbour pushed Moses away. He said, "Who made you our ruler and our judge?
27 Mas o que maltratava seu compatriota o repeliu: Quem te constituiu chefe ou juiz sobre nós?
28 Do you want to kill me as you did the Egyptian yesterday?"
28 Porventura queres tu matar-me, como ontem mataste o egípcio?
29 When Moses heard these words, he left Egypt at once. He lived as a stranger in the country of Midian. While he was there, two sons were born to him.
29 A estas palavras, Moisés fugiu. E esteve como estrangeiro na terra de Madiã, onde teve dois filhos.
30 When forty years had passed, he was in the wilderness near the hill called Sinai. There he saw fire in a small tree. An angel of the Lord was in the fire.
30 Passados quarenta anos, apareceu-lhe no deserto do monte Sinai um anjo, na chama duma sarça ardente.
31 Moses looked at it. He was very much surprised. He came closer to look at it better. Then he heard the Lord speak to him.
31 Moisés, admirado de uma tal visão, aproximou-se para a examinar. E a voz do Senhor lhe falou:
32 The Lord said, "I am the God of your fathers. I am the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob." Moses began to shake. He was afraid to look.
32 Eu sou o Deus de teus pais, o Deus de Abraão, de Isaac, de Jacó. Moisés, atemorizado, não ousava levantar os olhos.
33 Then the Lord said, "Take off your shoes. You are standing on holy ground.
33 O Senhor lhe disse: Tira o teu calçado, porque o lugar onde estás é uma terra santa.
34 I have looked and seen the trouble my people have in Egypt. I have heard them crying and I have come to make them free. Now come, I will send you to Egypt."
34 Considerei a aflição do meu povo no Egito, ouvi os seus gemidos e desci para livrá-los. Vem, pois, agora e eu te enviarei ao Egito.
35 This is the same Moses the people would not accept when they said, "Who made you our ruler and our judge?" This is the one God sent to be their ruler and to make them free when he spoke through the angel in the small tree.
35 Este Moisés que desprezaram, dizendo: Quem te constituiu chefe ou juiz?, a este Deus enviou como chefe e libertador pela mão do anjo que lhe apareceu na sarça.
36 It was Moses who led the people out of Egypt. He had done wonderful things and signs there, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness, for forty years.
36 Ele os fez sair do Egito, operando prodígios e milagres na terra do Egito, no mar Vermelho e no deserto, por espaço de quarenta anos.
37 This is the same Moses who said, "God will raise up one of your brothers to be a prophet, as he did me. Listen to him."
37 Foi este Moisés que disse aos filhos de Israel: Deus vos suscitará dentre os vossos irmãos um profeta como eu.
38 This is the same Moses who was with Gods people in the wilderness at the hill called Mount Sinai. He was with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers of long ago.It was he who received the words of life to give to us.
38 Este é o que esteve entre o povo congregado no deserto, e com o anjo que lhe falara no monte Sinai, e com os nossos pais; que recebeu palavras de vida para no-las transmitir.
39 Our fathers would not obey Moses. They did not want him to lead them. They wished they were back in Egypt.
39 Nossos pais não lhe quiseram obedecer, mas o repeliram. Em seus corações voltaram-se para o Egito,
40 They said to Aaron, "Make gods to lead us. We do not know what has happened to this Moses who brought us out of Egypt."
40 dizendo a Aarão: Faze-nos deuses, que vão diante de nós, porque quanto a este Moisés, que nos tirou da terra do Egito, não sabemos o que foi feito dele.
41 They made a young cow at that time and gave sacrifices to this god which was not the true God. They were very happy. What they had made pleased them.
41 Fizeram, naqueles dias, um bezerro de ouro e ofereceram um sacrifício ao ídolo, e se alegravam diante da obra das suas mãos.
42 Then God turned away from them. He let them worship the sun, moon, and the many stars in the sky. The prophets of God wrote about it long ago. They said, "You people of Israel, did you sacrifice animals to me forty years in the wilderness?
42 Mas Deus afastou-se e os abandonou ao culto dos astros do céu, como está escrito no livro dos profetas: Porventura, casa de Israel, vós me oferecestes vítimas e sacrifícios por quarenta anos no deserto?
43 You carried the house of the god called Moloch and the star of the god called Rephan. You made gods of them to worship. I will carry you away to the other side of Babylon."
43 Aceitastes a tenda de Moloc e a estrela do vosso deus Renfão, figuras que vós fizestes para adorá-las! Assim eu vos deportarei para além da Babilônia {Am 5,25ss.}.
44 Our fathers had the tent for the laws of God in the wilderness. It was built the way God showed Moses to make it.
44 A Arca da Aliança esteve com os nossos pais no deserto, como Deus ordenou a Moisés que a fizesse conforme o modelo que tinha visto.
45 Our fathers brought that tent with them when they came to this country. Joshua was their leader. God put aside the people who lived here first. Our fathers kept that tent with them until the time of David.
45 Recebendo-a nossos pais, levaram-na sob a direção de Josué às terras dos pagãos, que Deus expulsou da presença de nossos pais. E ali ficou até o tempo de Davi.
46 God blessed David who asked God to let him make a better house for Jacobs God.
46 Este encontrou graça diante de Deus e pediu que pudesse achar uma morada para o Deus de Jacó.
47 But it was Solomon who built a house for him.
47 Salomão foi quem lhe edificou a casa.
48 But even so, God is above all. He does not live in houses that people make with their hands. The prophet says,
48 O Altíssimo, porém, não habita em casas construídas por mãos humanas. Como diz o profeta:
49 "The Lord said, The sky is the big chair from which I rule. I put my feet on the earth. So then, what kind of house will you build for me? Or where will I rest myself?
49 O céu é o meu trono, e a terra o escabelo dos meus pés. Que casa me edificareis vós?, diz o Senhor. Qual é o lugar do meu repouso?
50 I have made all these things myself.
50 Acaso não foi minha mão que fez tudo isto {Is 66,1s.}?
51 You hard-hearted people! You have hearts and ears like the people who are not Jews. You always fight against the Holy Spirit just as your fathers did long ago.
51 Homens de dura cerviz, e de corações e ouvidos incircuncisos! Vós sempre resistis ao Espírito Santo. Como procederam os vossos pais, assim procedeis vós também!
52 What did your fathers do to the prophets of God? They made a lot of trouble for every one of them. They killed the ones who told that the Right and True One would come. He is the One you gave up to be killed. You are the killers.
52 A qual dos profetas não perseguiram os vossos pais? Mataram os que prediziam a vinda do Justo, do qual vós agora tendes sido traidores e homicidas.
53 You received the law given by angels, but you have not kept it.
53 Vós que recebestes a lei pelo ministério dos anjos e não a guardastes...
54 When the men heard what Stephen said, they were very angry. They made noises with their teeth to show they hated him.
54 Ao ouvir tais palavras, esbravejaram de raiva e rangiam os dentes contra ele.
55 But Stephen was full of the Holy Spirit. He looked at the sky and saw the greatness of God. He saw Jesus standing at Gods right side.
55 Mas, cheio do Espírito Santo, Estêvão fitou o céu e viu a glória de Deus e Jesus de pé à direita de Deus:
56 Look, he said, I see the sky open. I see the Son of man standing at Gods right hand side.
56 Eis que vejo, disse ele, os céus abertos e o Filho do Homem, de pé, à direita de Deus.
57 Then the men shouted. They put their fingers in their ears. All together they ran at Stephen.
57 Levantaram então um grande clamor, taparam os ouvidos e todos juntos se atiraram furiosos contra ele.
58 They put him out of the city and threw stones at him. (Those who had talked against him laid their clothes down by the feet of a young man named Saul.)
58 Lançaram-no fora da cidade e começaram a apedrejá-lo. As testemunhas depuseram os seus mantos aos pés de um moço chamado Saulo.
59 They kept on throwing stones at Stephen. He spoke to God and said, Oh, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
59 E apedrejavam Estêvão, que orava e dizia: Senhor Jesus, recebe o meu espírito.
60 Then he kneeled down and said in a loud voice, Lord, do not punish them for this wrong thing they are doing, After he said this, he died.
60 Posto de joelhos, exclamou em alta voz: Senhor, não lhes leves em conta este pecado... A estas palavras, expirou.
