Atos 23
CPDV: Catholic Public Domain Version (SM_CPDV) vs NVT
1 Then Paul, gazing intently at the council, said, “Noble brothers, I have spoken with all good conscience before God, even to this present day.”
1 Paulo olhou fixamente para o conselho dos líderes do povo e disse: “Irmãos, tenho vivido diante de Deus com a consciência limpa”.
2 And the high priest, Ananias, instructed those who were standing nearby to strike him on the mouth.
2 No mesmo instante, o sumo sacerdote Ananias ordenou aos que estavam perto de Paulo que lhe dessem um tapa na boca.
3 Then Paul said to him: “God shall strike you, you whitewashed wall! For would you sit and judge me according to the law, when, contrary to the law, you order me to be struck?”
3 Então Paulo lhe disse: “Deus o ferirá, seu grande hipócrita! Que espécie de juiz é o senhor, desrespeitando a lei ao mandar me agredir dessa forma?”.
4 And those who were standing nearby said, “Are you speaking evil about the high priest of God?”
4 Os que estavam perto de Paulo lhe disseram: “Você ousa insultar o sumo sacerdote de Deus?”.
5 And Paul said: “I did not know, brothers, that he is the high priest. For it is written: ‘You shall not speak evil of the leader of your people.’ ”
5 “Irmãos, não sabia que ele era o sumo sacerdote”, respondeu Paulo. “Pois as Escrituras dizem: ‘Não fale mal de suas autoridades’.”
6 Now Paul, knowing that one group were Sadducees and the other were Pharisees, exclaimed in the council: “Noble brothers, I am a Pharisee, the son of Pharisees! It is over the hope and resurrection of the dead that I am being judged.”
6 Sabendo Paulo que alguns membros do conselho dos líderes do povo eram saduceus e outros fariseus, gritou: “Irmãos, sou fariseu, como eram meus antepassados! E estou sendo julgado por causa de minha esperança na ressurreição dos mortos!”.
7 And when he had said this, a dissension occurred between the Pharisees and the Sadducees. And the multitude was divided.
7 Quando Paulo disse isso, o conselho se dividiu, fariseus contra saduceus,
8 For the Sadducees claim that there is no resurrection, and neither angels, nor spirits. But the Pharisees confess both of these.
8 pois os saduceus afirmam não haver ressurreição, nem anjos, nem espíritos, mas os fariseus creem em todas essas coisas.
9 Then there occurred a great clamor. And some of the Pharisees, rising up, were fighting, saying: “We find nothing evil in this man. What if a spirit has spoken to him, or an angel?”
9 Houve grande alvoroço. Alguns dos mestres da lei que eram fariseus se levantaram e começaram a discutir energicamente. “Não vemos nada de errado com este homem!”, gritavam. “Talvez um espírito ou um anjo tenha falado a ele!”
10 And since a great dissension had been made, the tribune, fearing that Paul might be torn apart by them, ordered the soldiers to descend and to seize him from their midst, and to bring him into the fortress.
10 A discussão ficou cada vez mais violenta, e o comandante teve medo de que Paulo fosse feito em pedaços. Assim, ordenou que os soldados o retirassem à força e o levassem de volta à fortaleza.
11 Then, on the following night, the Lord stood near him and said: “Be constant. For just as you have testified about me in Jerusalem, so also it is necessary for you to testify at Rome.”
11 Naquela noite, o Senhor apareceu a Paulo e disse: “Tenha ânimo, Paulo! Assim como você testemunhou a meu respeito aqui em Jerusalém, deve fazê-lo também em Roma”.
12 And when daylight arrived, some of the Jews gathered together and bound themselves with an oath, saying that they would neither eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.
12 Na manhã seguinte, alguns judeus se juntaram para conspirar, jurando solenemente que não comeriam nem beberiam antes de matar Paulo.
13 Now there were more than forty men who had taken this oath together.
13 A conspiração envolveu mais de quarenta homens.
14 And they approached the leaders of the priests, and the elders, and they said: “We have sworn ourselves by an oath, so that we will taste nothing, until we have killed Paul.
14 Foram aos principais sacerdotes e aos líderes do povo e lhes disseram: “Juramos solenemente, sob pena de castigo divino, que não comeremos nem beberemos antes de matar Paulo.
15 Therefore, with the council, you should now give notice to the tribune, so that he may bring him to you, as if you intended to determine something else about him. But before he approaches, we have made preparations to put him to death.”
15 Agora peçam, vocês e o conselho dos líderes do povo, que o comandante traga Paulo de volta ao conselho. Finjam que os senhores desejam examinar o caso com mais detalhes. Nós o mataremos no caminho”.
16 But when Paul’s sister’s son had heard of this, about their treachery, he went and entered into the fortress, and he reported it to Paul.
16 Contudo, o sobrinho de Paulo, filho de sua irmã, soube do plano deles e foi à fortaleza contar a seu tio.
17 And Paul, calling to him one of the centurions, said: “Lead this young man to the tribune. For he has something to tell him.”
17 Então Paulo mandou chamar um dos oficiais romanos e disse: “Leve este rapaz ao comandante. Ele tem algo importante para lhe contar”.
18 And indeed, he took him and led him to the tribune, and he said, “Paul, the prisoner, asked me to lead this young man to you, since he has something to say to you.”
18 O oficial o levou ao comandante e explicou: “O preso Paulo me chamou e pediu que eu trouxesse ao senhor este rapaz, pois ele tem algo a lhe contar”.
19 Then the tribune, taking him by the hand, withdrew with him by themselves, and he asked him: “What is it that you have to tell me?”
19 O comandante tomou o rapaz pela mão e o levou à parte. “O que você quer me dizer?”, perguntou.
20 Then he said: “The Jews have met to ask you to bring Paul tomorrow to the council, as if they intended to question him about something else.
20 O sobrinho de Paulo respondeu: “Alguns judeus pedirão que o senhor apresente Paulo diante da reunião do conselho amanhã, fingindo que desejam obter mais informações.
21 But truly, you should not believe them, for they would ambush him with more than forty men from among them, who have bound themselves by an oath neither to eat, nor to drink, until they have put him to death. And they are now prepared, hoping for an affirmation from you.”
21 Não acredite neles. Há mais de quarenta homens emboscados para matar Paulo. Juraram solenemente, sob pena de castigo divino, que não comeriam nem beberiam antes de matá-lo. Estão de prontidão, apenas esperando sua permissão”.
22 And then the tribune dismissed the young man, instructing him not to tell anyone that he had made known these things to him.
22 O comandante despediu o rapaz e o advertiu: “Não deixe ninguém saber que você me contou isso”.
23 Then, having called two centurions, he said to them: “Prepare two hundred soldiers, so that they may go as far as Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen, for the third hour of the night.
23 Então o comandante chamou dois de seus oficiais e ordenou: “Preparem duzentos soldados para partir a Cesareia hoje às nove da noite. Levem também duzentos lanceiros e setenta soldados a cavalo.
24 And prepare beasts of burden to carry Paul, so that they may lead him safely to Felix, the governor.”
24 Providenciem um cavalo para Paulo e levem-no em segurança ao governador Félix”.
25 For he was afraid, lest perhaps the Jews might seize him and kill him, and that afterwards he would be falsely accused, as if he had accepted a bribe. And so he wrote a letter containing the following:
25 Em seguida, escreveu a seguinte carta ao governador:
26 “Claudius Lysias, to the most excellent governor, Felix: greetings.
26 “De Cláudio Lísias ao excelentíssimo governador Félix. Saudações.
27 This man, having been apprehended by the Jews and being about to be put to death by them, I rescued, overwhelming them with soldiers, since I realized that he is a Roman.
27 “Este homem foi capturado por alguns judeus que estavam prestes a matá-lo quando cheguei com meus soldados. Ao ser informado de que ele era cidadão romano, transferi-o para um lugar seguro.
28 And wanting to know the reason that they objected to him, I brought him into their council.
28 Então levei-o diante do conselho supremo dos judeus para investigar o motivo das acusações.
29 And I discovered him to be accused about questions of their law. Yet truly, nothing deserving of death or imprisonment was within the accusation.
29 Não demorei a descobrir que ele era acusado de algo relacionado à lei religiosa, sem dúvida nada que justificasse a pena de morte ou mesmo a prisão.
30 And when I had been given news of ambushes, which they had prepared against him, I sent him to you, notifying his accusers also, so that they may plead their accusations before you. Farewell.”
30 Fui informado, porém, de uma conspiração para matá-lo e enviei-o de imediato ao senhor. Também informei aos acusadores que devem apresentar suas denúncias diante do senhor”.
31 Therefore the soldiers, taking Paul according to their orders, brought him by night to Antipatris.
31 Naquela noite, os soldados cumpriram as ordens que haviam recebido e levaram Paulo até Antipátride.
32 And the next day, sending the horsemen to go with him, they returned to the fortress.
32 Voltaram à fortaleza na manhã seguinte, enquanto a cavalaria prosseguiu com ele.
33 And when they had arrived at Caesarea and had delivered the letter to the governor, they also presented Paul before him.
33 Quando chegaram a Cesareia, apresentaram Paulo e a carta ao governador Félix.
34 And when he had read it and had asked which province he was from, realizing that he was from Cilicia, he said:
34 O governador leu a carta e perguntou a Paulo de que província ele era. “Da Cilícia”, respondeu Paulo.
35 “I will hear you, when your accusers have arrived.” And he ordered him to be kept in the praetorium of Herod.
35 “Ouvirei seu caso pessoalmente quando seus acusadores chegarem”, disse o governador. Em seguida, ordenou que Paulo fosse mantido na prisão do palácio que Herodes havia construído.
