Atos 12
The Common Edition: New Testament (TCE) vs VC
1 Now about that time Herod the king laid hands on some who belonged to the church in order to persecute them.
1 Por aquele mesmo tempo, o rei Herodes mandou prender alguns membros da Igreja para os maltratar.
2 He had James the brother of John put to death with the sword.
2 Assim foi que matou à espada Tiago, irmão de João.
3 When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during the days of Unleavened Bread.
3 Vendo que isto agradava aos judeus, mandou prender Pedro. Eram então os dias dos pães sem fermento.
4 When he had seized him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring him out to the people.
4 Mandou prendê-lo e lançou-o no cárcere, entregando-o à guarda de quatro grupos, de quatro soldados cada um, com a intenção de apresentá-lo ao povo depois da Páscoa.
5 So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer for him was made to God by the church.
5 Pedro estava assim encerrado na prisão, mas a Igreja orava sem cessar por ele a Deus.
6 The very night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries before the door were guarding the prison.
6 Ora, quando Herodes estava para o apresentar, naquela mesma noite dormia Pedro entre dois soldados, ligado com duas cadeias. Os guardas, à porta, vigiavam o cárcere.
7 And behold, an angel of the Lord suddenly appeared, and a light shone in the cell; and he struck Peter's side and woke him up, saying, »Get up quickly.« And the chains fell off his hands.
7 De repente, apresentou-se um anjo do Senhor, e uma luz brilhou no recinto. Tocando no lado de Pedro, o anjo despertou-o: Levanta-te depressa, disse ele. Caíram-lhe as cadeias das mãos.
8 And the angel said to him, »Dress yourself and put on your sandals.« And he did so. And he said to him, »Wrap your cloak around you and follow me.«
8 O anjo ordenou: Cinge-te e calça as tuas sandálias. Ele assim o fez. O anjo acrescentou: Cobre-te com a tua capa e segue-me.
9 So he went out and followed him; and he did not know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision.
9 Pedro saiu e seguiu-o, sem saber se era real o que se fazia por meio do anjo. Julgava estar sonhando.
10 When they had passed the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. It opened for them by itself, and they went out and passed on through one street; and immediately the angel left him.
10 Passaram o primeiro e o segundo postos da guarda. Chegaram ao portão de ferro, que dá para a cidade, o qual se lhes abriu por si mesmo. Saíram e tomaram juntos uma rua. Em seguida, de súbito, o anjo desapareceu.
11 When Peter came to himself, he said, »Now I know for sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting.«
11 Então Pedro tornou a si e disse: Agora vejo que o Senhor mandou verdadeiramente o seu anjo e me livrou da mão de Herodes e de tudo o que esperava o povo dos judeus.
12 When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was also called Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.
12 Refletiu um momento e dirigiu-se para a casa de Maria, mãe de João, que tem por sobrenome Marcos, onde muitos se tinham reunido e faziam oração.
13 And when he knocked at the door of the gate, a servant-girl named Rhoda came to answer.
13 Quando bateu à porta de entrada, uma criada, chamada Rode, adiantou-se para escutar.
14 When she recognized Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate, but ran in and announced that Peter was standing in front of the gate.
14 Mal reconheceu a voz de Pedro, de tanta alegria não abriu a porta, mas, correndo para dentro, foi anunciar que era Pedro que estava à porta.
15 They said to her, »You are out of your mind!« But she kept insisting that it was so. They said, »It is his angel.«
15 Disseram-lhe: Estás louca! Mas ela persistia em afirmar que era verdade. Diziam eles: Então é o seu anjo.
16 But Peter continued knocking; and when they opened the door, they saw him and were amazed.
16 Pedro continuava a bater. Afinal abriram a porta, viram-no e ficaram atônitos.
17 But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, »Tell this to James and to the brethren.« Then he left and went to another place.
17 Ele, acenando-lhes com a mão que se calassem, contou como o Senhor o havia livrado da prisão, e disse: Comunicai-o a Tiago e aos irmãos. Em seguida, saiu dali e retirou-se para outro lugar.
18 Now when day came, there was no small disturbance among the soldiers as to what had become of Peter.
18 Logo que amanheceu, houve um sobressalto pouco comum entre os soldados sobre o que acontecera a Pedro.
19 When Herod had searched for him and could not find him, he examined the guards and ordered that they be put to death. Then he went down from Judea to Caesarea and stayed there a while.
19 Herodes, procurando-o e não o achando, instaurou um processo contra os guardas e mandou supliciá-los. Em seguida, desceu da Judéia para Cesaréia, onde permaneceu.
20 Now he was angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; and they came to him in a body, and having persuaded Blastus, the king's chamberlain, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the kings country for food.
20 Estava Herodes em conflito com os habitantes de Tiro e de Sidônia. Estes, porém, de comum acordo, se apresentaram a ele, e, com o favor de Blasto, que era camareiro do rei, pediram a paz. {Porque a sua região era abastecida por ele.}
21 On an appointed day Herod put on his royal robes, took his seat upon the throne, and made an address to them.
21 No dia marcado, Herodes, vestido em traje real, sentou-se no tribunal e lhes dirigiu uma alocução.
22 And the people shouted, »The voice of a god and not of a man!«
22 O povo aplaudia: É a voz de um deus, e não de um homem!
23 Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him because he did not give God the glory, and he was eaten by worms and died.
23 No mesmo instante, o anjo do Senhor o feriu, por ele não haver dado honra a Deus. E, roído de vermes, expirou.
24 But the word of God continued to grow and to be multiplied.
24 Entretanto, a palavra de Deus crescia e se espalhava sempre mais.
25 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their mission, taking along with them John, who was also called Mark.
25 Tendo Barnabé e Saulo concluído a sua missão, voltaram de Jerusalém {a Antioquia}, levando consigo João, que tem por sobrenome Marcos.
