Atos 23
GOD'S WORD (ENGGW) vs ARC
1 Paul stared at the Jewish council and said, “Brothers, my relationship with God has always given me a perfectly clear conscience.”
1 E, pondo Paulo os olhos no conselho, disse: Varões irmãos, até ao dia de hoje tenho andado diante de Deus com toda a boa consciência.
2 The chief priest Ananias ordered the men standing near Paul to strike him on the mouth.
2 Mas o sumo sacerdote, Ananias, mandou aos que estavam junto dele que o ferissem na boca.
3 Then Paul said to him, “God will strike you, you hypocrite! You sit there and judge me by Moses’ Teachings and yet you break those teachings by ordering these men to strike me!”
3 Então, Paulo lhe disse: Deus te ferirá, parede branqueada! Tu estás aqui assentado para julgar-me conforme a lei e, contra a lei, me mandas ferir?
4 The men standing near Paul said to him, “You’re insulting God’s chief priest!”
4 E os que ali estavam disseram: Injurias o sumo sacerdote de Deus?
5 Paul answered, “Brothers, I didn’t know that he is the chief priest. After all, Scripture says, ‘Don’t speak evil about a ruler of your people.’ ”
5 E Paulo disse: Não sabia, irmãos, que era o sumo sacerdote; porque está escrito: Não dirás mal do príncipe do teu povo.
6 When Paul saw that some of them were Sadducees and others were Pharisees, he shouted in the council, “Brothers, I’m a Pharisee and a descendant of Pharisees. I’m on trial because I expect that the dead will come back to life.”
6 E Paulo, sabendo que uma parte era de saduceus, e outra, de fariseus, clamou no conselho: Varões irmãos, eu sou fariseu, filho de fariseu! No tocante à esperança e ressurreição dos mortos sou julgado!
7 After Paul said that, the Pharisees and Sadducees began to quarrel, and the men in the meeting were divided.
7 E, havendo dito isto, houve dissensão entre os fariseus e saduceus; e a multidão se dividiu.
8 (The Sadducees say that the dead won’t come back to life and that angels and spirits don’t exist. The Pharisees believe in all these things.)
8 Porque os saduceus dizem que não há ressurreição, nem anjo, nem espírito; mas os fariseus reconhecem uma e outra coisa.
9 The shouting became very loud. Some of the experts in Moses’ Teachings were Pharisees who argued their position forcefully. They said, “We don’t find anything wrong with this man. Maybe a spirit or an angel actually spoke to him!”
9 E originou-se um grande clamor; e, levantando-se os escribas da parte dos fariseus, contendiam, dizendo: Nenhum mal achamos neste homem, e se algum espírito ou anjo lhe falou, não resistamos a Deus.
10 The quarrel was becoming violent, and the officer was afraid that they would tear Paul to pieces. So the officer ordered his soldiers to drag Paul back to the barracks.
10 E, havendo grande dissensão, o tribuno, temendo que Paulo fosse despedaçado por eles, mandou descer a soldadesca, para que o tirassem do meio deles e o levassem para a fortaleza.
11 The Lord stood near Paul the next night and said to him, “Don’t lose your courage! You’ve told the truth about me in Jerusalem. Now you must tell the truth about me in Rome.”
11 E, na noite seguinte, apresentando-se-lhe o Senhor, disse: Paulo, tem ânimo! Porque, como de mim testificaste em Jerusalém, assim importa que testifiques também em Roma.
12 In the morning the Jews formed a conspiracy. They asked God to curse them if they ate or drank anything before they had killed Paul.
12 Quando já era dia, alguns dos judeus fizeram uma conspiração e juraram dizendo que não comeriam nem beberiam enquanto não matassem a Paulo.
13 More than forty men took part in this plot.
13 E eram mais de quarenta os que fizeram esta conjuração.
14 They went to the chief priests and leaders ⌞of the people⌟ and said, “We’ve asked God to curse us if we taste any food before we’ve killed Paul.
14 Estes foram ter com os principais dos sacerdotes e anciãos e disseram: Conjuramo-nos, sob pena de maldição, a nada provarmos até que matemos a Paulo.
15 Here’s our plan: You and the council must go to the Roman officer on the pretext that you need more information from Paul. You have to make it look as though you want to get more accurate information about him. We’ll be ready to kill him before he gets to you.”
15 Agora, pois, vós, com o conselho, rogai ao tribuno que vo-lo traga amanhã, como querendo saber mais alguma coisa de seus negócios, e, antes que chegue, estaremos prontos para o matar.
16 But Paul’s nephew heard about the ambush. He entered the barracks and told Paul.
16 E o filho da irmã de Paulo, tendo ouvido acerca desta cilada, foi, e entrou na fortaleza, e o anunciou a Paulo.
17 Then Paul called one of the sergeants and told him, “Take this young man to the officer. He has something to tell him.”
17 E Paulo, chamando a si um dos centuriões, disse: Leva este jovem ao tribuno, porque tem alguma coisa que lhe comunicar.
18 The sergeant took the young man to the officer and said, “The prisoner Paul called me. He asked me to bring this young man to you because he has something to tell you.”
18 Tomando-o ele, pois, o levou ao tribuno e disse: O preso Paulo, chamando-me a si, me rogou que te trouxesse este jovem, que tem alguma coisa que dizer-te.
19 The officer took the young man by the arm, went where they could be alone, and asked him, “What do you have to tell me?”
19 E o tribuno, tomando- o pela mão e pondo-se à parte, perguntou-lhe em particular: Que tens que me contar?
20 The young man answered, “The Jews have planned to ask you to bring Paul to the Jewish council tomorrow. They’re going to make it look as though they want more accurate information about him.
20 E disse ele: Os judeus se concertaram rogar-te que amanhã leves Paulo ao conselho como tendo de inquirir dele mais alguma coisa ao certo.
21 Don’t let them persuade you to do this. More than forty of them are planning to ambush him. They have asked God to curse them if they eat or drink anything before they have murdered him. They are ready now and are expecting you to promise ⌞that you will bring Paul⌟.”
21 Mas tu não os creias, porque mais de quarenta homens dentre eles lhe andam armando ciladas, os quais se obrigaram, sob pena de maldição, a não comerem nem beberem até que o tenham morto; e já estão apercebidos, esperando de ti promessa.
22 The officer dismissed the young man and ordered him not to tell this information to anyone else.
22 Então, o tribuno despediu o jovem, mandando-lhe que a ninguém dissesse que lhe havia contado aquilo.
23 Then the officer summoned two of his sergeants and told them, “I want 200 infantrymen, 70 soldiers on horseback, and 200 soldiers with spears. Have them ready to go to Caesarea at nine o’clock tonight.
23 E, chamando dois centuriões, lhes disse: Aprontai para as três horas da noite duzentos soldados, e setenta de cavalo, e duzentos lanceiros para irem até Cesareia;
24 Provide an animal for Paul to ride, and take him safely to Governor Felix.”
24 e aparelhai cavalgaduras, para que, pondo nelas a Paulo, o levem salvo ao governador Félix.
25 The officer wrote a letter to the governor with the following message:
25 E escreveu uma carta que continha isto:
26 Claudius Lysias sends greetings to Your Excellency, Governor Felix:
26 Cláudio Lísias a Félix, potentíssimo governador, saúde.
27 The Jews had seized this man and were going to murder him. When I found out that he was a Roman citizen, I went with my soldiers to rescue him.
27 Este homem foi preso pelos judeus; e, estando já a ponto de ser morto por eles, sobrevim eu com a soldadesca e o livrei, informado de que era romano.
28 I wanted to know what they had against him. So I took him to their Jewish council
28 Querendo saber a causa por que o acusavam, o levei ao seu conselho.
29 and found their accusations had to do with disputes about their own laws. He wasn’t accused of anything for which he deserved to die or to be put into prison.
29 E achei que o acusavam de algumas questões da sua lei, mas que nenhum crime havia nele digno de morte ou de prisão.
30 Since I was informed that there was a plot against this man, I immediately sent him to you. I have also ordered his accusers to state their case against him in front of you.
30 E, sendo-me notificado que os judeus haviam de armar ciladas a esse homem, logo to enviei, mandando também aos acusadores que perante ti digam o que tiverem contra ele. Passa bem.
31 So the infantrymen did as they had been ordered. They took Paul to the city of Antipatris during the night.
31 Tomando, pois, os soldados a Paulo, como lhes fora mandado, o trouxeram de noite a Antipátride.
32 They returned to their barracks the next day and let the soldiers on horseback travel with Paul.
32 No dia seguinte, deixando aos de cavalo irem com ele, tornaram à fortaleza;
33 When the soldiers arrived in the city of Caesarea with Paul, they delivered the letter to the governor and handed Paul over to him.
33 os quais, logo que chegaram a Cesareia e entregaram a carta ao governador, lhe apresentaram Paulo.
34 After the governor had read the letter, he asked Paul which province he was from. When he found out that Paul was from the province of Cilicia,
34 E o governador, lida a carta, perguntou de que província era; e, sabendo que era da Cilícia,
35 he said, “I’ll hear your case when your accusers arrive.” Then the governor gave orders to keep Paul under guard in Herod’s palace.
35 disse: Ouvir-te-ei quando também aqui vierem os teus acusadores. E mandou que o guardassem no pretório de Herodes.
