Atos 12
Weymouth NT (WMTH) vs ARA
1 Now, about that time, King Herod arrested certain members of the Church, in order to ill-treat them;
1 Por aquele tempo, mandou o rei Herodes prender alguns da igreja para os maltratar,
2 and James, John's brother, he beheaded.
2 fazendo passar a fio de espada a Tiago, irmão de João.
3 Finding that this gratified the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also; these being the days of Unleavened Bread.
3 Vendo ser isto agradável aos judeus, prosseguiu, prendendo também a Pedro. E eram os dias dos pães asmos.
4 He had him arrested and lodged in jail, handing him over to the care of sixteen soldiers; and intended after the Passover to bring him out again to the people.
4 Tendo-o feito prender, lançou-o no cárcere, entregando-o a quatro escoltas de quatro soldados cada uma, para o guardarem, tencionando apresentá-lo ao povo depois da Páscoa.
5 So Peter was kept in prison; but long and fervent prayer was offered to God by the Church on his behalf.
5 Pedro, pois, estava guardado no cárcere; mas havia oração incessante a Deus por parte da igreja a favor dele.
6 Now when Herod was on the point of taking him out of prison, that very night Peter was asleep between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and guards were on duty outside the door.
6 Quando Herodes estava para apresentá-lo, naquela mesma noite, Pedro dormia entre dois soldados, acorrentado com duas cadeias, e sentinelas à porta guardavam o cárcere.
7 Suddenly an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell; and, striking Peter on the side, he woke him and said, »Rise quickly.« Instantly the chains dropped off his wrists.
7 Eis, porém, que sobreveio um anjo do Senhor, e uma luz iluminou a prisão; e, tocando ele o lado de Pedro, o despertou, dizendo: Levanta-te depressa! Então, as cadeias caíram-lhe das mãos.
8 »Fasten your girdle,« said the angel, »and tie on your sandals.« He did so. Then the angel said, »Throw your cloak round you, and follow me.«
8 Disse-lhe o anjo: Cinge-te e calça as sandálias. E ele assim o fez. Disse-lhe mais: Põe a capa e segue-me.
9 So Peter went out, following him, yet could not believe that what the angel was doing was real, but supposed that he saw a vision.
9 Então, saindo, o seguia, não sabendo que era real o que se fazia por meio do anjo; parecia-lhe, antes, uma visão.
10 And passing through the first ward and the second, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. This opened to them of itself; and, going out, they passed on through one of the streets, and then suddenly the angel left him.
10 Depois de terem passado a primeira e a segunda sentinela, chegaram ao portão de ferro que dava para a cidade, o qual se lhes abriu automaticamente; e, saindo, enveredaram por uma rua, e logo adiante o anjo se apartou dele.
11 Peter coming to himself said, »Now I know for certain that the Lord has sent His angel and has rescued me from the power of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were anticipating.«
11 Então, Pedro, caindo em si, disse: Agora, sei, verdadeiramente, que o Senhor enviou o seu anjo e me livrou da mão de Herodes e de toda a expectativa do povo judaico.
12 So, after thinking things over, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John surnamed Mark, where a large number of people were assembled, praying.
12 Considerando ele a sua situação, resolveu ir à casa de Maria, mãe de João, cognominado Marcos, onde muitas pessoas estavam congregadas e oravam.
13 When he knocked at the wicket in the door, a maidservant named Rhoda came to answer the knock;
13 Quando ele bateu ao postigo do portão, veio uma criada, chamada Rode, ver quem era;
14 and recognizing Peter's voice, for very joy she did not open the door, but ran in and told them that Peter was standing there.
14 reconhecendo a voz de Pedro, tão alegre ficou, que nem o fez entrar, mas voltou correndo para anunciar que Pedro estava junto do portão.
15 »You are mad,« they said. But she strenuously maintained that it was true. »It is his guardian angel,« they said.
15 Eles lhe disseram: Estás louca. Ela, porém, persistia em afirmar que assim era. Então, disseram: É o seu anjo.
16 Meanwhile Peter went on knocking, until at last they opened the door and saw that it was really he, and were filled with amazement.
16 Entretanto, Pedro continuava batendo; então, eles abriram, viram-no e ficaram atônitos.
17 But he motioned with his hand for silence, and then described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. »Tell all this to James and the brethren,« he added. Then he left them, and went to another place.
17 Ele, porém, fazendo-lhes sinal com a mão para que se calassem, contou-lhes como o Senhor o tirara da prisão e acrescentou: Anunciai isto a Tiago e aos irmãos. E, saindo, retirou-se para outro lugar.
18 When morning came, there was no little commotion among the soldiers, as to what could possibly have become of Peter.
18 Sendo já dia, houve não pouco alvoroço entre os soldados sobre o que teria acontecido a Pedro.
19 And when Herod had had him searched for and could not find him, after sharply questioning the guards he ordered them away to execution. He then went down from Judaea to Caesarea and remained there.
19 Herodes, tendo-o procurado e não o achando, submetendo as sentinelas a inquérito, ordenou que fossem justiçadas. E, descendo da Judeia para Cesareia, Herodes passou ali algum tempo.
20 Now the people of Tyre and Sidon had incurred Herod's violent displeasure. So they sent a large deputation to wait on him; and having secured the good will of Blastus, his treasurer, they begged the king to be friendly with them again, because their country was dependent on his for its food supply.
20 Ora, havia séria divergência entre Herodes e os habitantes de Tiro e de Sidom; porém estes, de comum acordo, se apresentaram a ele e, depois de alcançar o favor de Blasto, camarista do rei, pediram reconciliação, porque a sua terra se abastecia do país do rei.
21 So, on an appointed day, Herod, having arrayed himself in royal robes, took his seat on the tribunal, and was haranguing them;
21 Em dia designado, Herodes, vestido de trajo real, assentado no trono, dirigiu-lhes a palavra;
22 and the assembled people kept shouting, »It is the voice of a god, and not of a man!«
22 e o povo clamava: É voz de um deus, e não de homem!
23 Instantly an angel of the Lord struck him, because he had not given the glory to God, and being eaten up by worms, he died.
23 No mesmo instante, um anjo do Senhor o feriu, por ele não haver dado glória a Deus; e, comido de vermes, expirou.
24 But God's Message prospered, and converts were multiplied.
24 Entretanto, a palavra do Senhor crescia e se multiplicava.
25 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, having discharged their mission, and they brought with them John, surnamed Mark.
25 Barnabé e Saulo, cumprida a sua missão, voltaram de Jerusalém, levando também consigo a João, apelidado Marcos.
