Luke 5

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SAGRADA BIBLIA
1 Now it happened that, when the crowds pressed toward him, so that they might hear the word of God, he was standing beside the lake of Genesaret.	1 Estando Jesus um dia à margem do lago de Genesaré, o povo se comprimia em redor dele para ouvir a palavra de Deus.
2 And he saw two boats standing beside the lake. But the fishermen had climbed down, and they were washing their nets.	2 Vendo duas barcas estacionadas à beira do lago, - pois os pescadores haviam descido delas para consertar as redes -,
3 And so, climbing into one of the boats, which belonged to Simon, he asked him to draw back a little from the land. And sitting down, he taught the crowds from the boat.	3 subiu a uma das barcas que era de Simão e pediu-lhe que a afastasse um pouco da terra; e sentado, ensinava da barca o povo.
4 Then, when he had ceased speaking, he said to Simon, “Lead us into deep water, and release your nets for a catch.”	4 Quando acabou de falar, disse a Simão: Faze-te ao largo, e lançai as vossas redes para pescar.
5 And in response, Simon said to him: “Teacher, working throughout the night, we caught nothing. But on your word, I will release the net.”	5 Simão respondeu-lhe: Mestre, trabalhamos a noite inteira e nada apanhamos; mas por causa de tua palavra, lançarei a rede.
6 And when they had done this, they enclosed such a copious multitude of fish that their net was rupturing.	6 Feito isto, apanharam peixes em tanta quantidade, que a rede se lhes rompia.
7 And they signaled to their associates, who were in the other boat, so that they would come and help them. And they came and filled both boats, so that they were nearly submerged.	7 Acenaram aos companheiros, que estavam na outra barca, para que viessem ajudar. Eles vieram e encheram ambas as barcas, de modo que quase iam ao fundo.
8 But when Simon Peter had seen this, he fell down at the knees of Jesus, saying, “Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.”	8 Vendo isso, Simão Pedro caiu aos pés de Jesus e exclamou: Retira-te de mim, Senhor, porque sou um homem pecador.
9 For astonishment had enveloped him, and all who were with him, at the catch of fish that they had taken.	9 É que tanto ele como seus companheiros estavam assombrados por causa da pesca que haviam feito.
10 Now the same was true of James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were associates of Simon. And Jesus said to Simon: “Do not be afraid. From now on, you will be catching men.”	10 O mesmo acontecera a Tiago e João, filhos de Zebedeu, que eram seus companheiros. Então Jesus disse a Simão: Não temas; doravante serás pescador de homens.
11 And having led their boats to land, leaving behind everything, they followed him.	11 E atracando as barcas à terra, deixaram tudo e o seguiram.
12 And it happened that, while he was in a certain city, behold, there was a man full of leprosy who, upon seeing Jesus and falling to his face, petitioned him, saying: “Lord, if you are willing, you are able to cleanse me.”	12 Estando ele numa cidade, apareceu um homem cheio de lepra. Vendo Jesus, lançou-se com o rosto por terra e lhe suplicou: Senhor, se queres, podes limpar-me.
13 And extending his hand, he touched him, saying: “I am willing. Be cleansed.” And at once, the leprosy departed from him.	13 Jesus estendeu a mão, tocou-o e disse: Eu quero; sê purificado! No mesmo instante desapareceu dele a lepra.
14 And he instructed him that he should tell no one, “But go, show yourself to the priest, and make the offering for your cleansing, just as Moses has commanded, as a testimony for them.”	14 Ordenou-lhe Jesus que o não contasse a ninguém, dizendo-lhe, porém: Vai e mostra-te ao sacerdote, e oferece pela tua purificação o que Moisés prescreveu, para lhes servir de testemunho.
15 Yet word of him traveled around all the more. And great crowds came together, so that they might listen and be cured by him from their infirmities.	15 Entretanto, espalhava-se mais e mais a sua fama e concorriam grandes multidões para o ouvir e ser curadas das suas enfermidades.
16 And he withdrew into the desert and prayed.	16 Mas ele costumava retirar-se a lugares solitários para orar.
17 And it happened, on a certain day, that he again sat down, teaching. And there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting nearby, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judea and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present, to heal them.	17 Um dia estava ele ensinando. Ao seu derredor estavam sentados fariseus e doutores da lei, vindos de todas as localidades da Galiléia, da Judéia e de Jerusalém. E o poder do Senhor fazia-o realizar várias curas.
18 And behold, some men were carrying in the bed of a man who was paralyzed. And they sought a way to bring him in, and to place him before him.	18 Apareceram algumas pessoas trazendo num leito um homem paralítico; e procuravam introduzi-lo na casa e pô-lo diante dele.
19 And not finding a way by which they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they climbed up to the roof, and they let him down through the roof tiles with his bed, into their midst, in front of Jesus.	19 Mas não achando por onde o introduzir, por causa da multidão, subiram ao telhado e por entre as telhas o arriaram com o leito ao meio da assembléia, diante de Jesus.
20 And when he saw his faith, he said, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”	20 Vendo a fé que tinham, disse Jesus: Meu amigo, os teus pecados te são perdoados.
21 And the scribes and Pharisees began to think, saying: “Who is this, who is speaking blasphemies? Who is able to forgive sins, except God alone?”	21 Então os escribas e os fariseus começaram a pensar e a dizer consigo mesmos: Quem é este homem que profere blasfêmias? Quem pode perdoar pecados senão unicamente Deus?
22 But when Jesus realized their thoughts, responding, he said to them: “What are you thinking in your hearts?	22 Jesus, porém, penetrando nos seus pensamentos, replicou-lhes: Que pensais nos vossos corações?
23 Which is easier to say: ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk?’	23 Que é mais fácil dizer: Perdoados te são os pecados; ou dizer: Levanta-te e anda?
24 But so that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins,” he said to the paralytic, “I say to you to: Rise up, take up your bed, and go into your house.”	24 Ora, para que saibais que o Filho do Homem tem na terra poder de perdoar pecados {disse ele ao paralítico}, eu te ordeno: levanta-te, toma o teu leito e vai para tua casa.
25 And at once, rising up in their sight, he took up the bed on which he was lying, and he went away to his own house, magnifying God.	25 No mesmo instante, levantou-se ele à vista deles, tomou o leito e partiu para casa, glorificando a Deus.
26 And astonishment took hold of everyone, and they were magnifying God. And they were filled with fear, saying: “For we have seen miracles today.”	26 Todos ficaram transportados de entusiasmo e glorificavam a Deus; e tomados de temor, diziam: Hoje vimos coisas maravilhosas.
27 And after these things, he went out, and he saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the customs office. And he said to him, “Follow me.”	27 Depois disso, ele saiu e viu sentado ao balcão um coletor de impostos, por nome Levi, e disse-lhe: Segue-me.
28 And leaving behind everything, rising up, he followed him.	28 Deixando ele tudo, levantou-se e o seguiu.
29 And Levi made a great feast for him in his own house. And there was a large crowd of tax collectors and others, who were sitting at table with them.	29 Levi deu-lhe um grande banquete em sua casa; vários desses fiscais e outras pessoas estavam sentados à mesa com eles.
30 But the Pharisees and scribes were murmuring, saying to his disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”	30 Os fariseus e os seus escribas puseram-se a criticar e a perguntar aos discípulos: Por que comeis e bebeis com os publicanos e pessoas de má vida?
31 And responding, Jesus said to them: “It is not those who are well who need a doctor, but those who have maladies.	31 Respondeu-lhes Jesus: Não são os homens de boa saúde que necessitam de médico, mas sim os enfermos.
32 I have not come to call the just, but sinners to repentance.”	32 Não vim chamar à conversão os justos, mas sim os pecadores.
33 But they said to him, “Why do the disciples of John fast frequently, and make supplications, and those of the Pharisees act similarly, while yours eat and drink?”	33 Eles então lhe disseram: Os discípulos de João e os discípulos dos fariseus jejuam com freqüência e fazem longas orações, mas os teus comem e bebem...
34 And he said to them: “How can you cause the sons of the groom to fast, while the groom is still with them?	34 Jesus respondeu-lhes: Porventura podeis vós obrigar a jejuar os amigos do esposo, enquanto o esposo está com eles?
35 But the days will come when the groom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast, in those days.”	35 Virão dias em que o esposo lhes será tirado; então jejuarão.
36 Then he also made a comparison for them: “For no one sews a patch from a new garment onto an old garment. Otherwise, he both disrupts the new one, and the patch from the new one does not join together with the old one.	36 Propôs-lhes também esta comparação: Ninguém rasga um pedaço de roupa nova para remendar uma roupa velha, porque assim estragaria uma roupa nova. Além disso, o remendo novo não assentaria bem na roupa velha.
37 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the new wine ruptures the wineskins, and it will be poured out, and the wineskins will be lost.	37 Também ninguém põe vinho novo em odres velhos; do contrário, o vinho novo arrebentará os odres e entornar-se-á, e perder-se-ão os odres;
38 Instead, the new wine is put into new wineskins, and both are preserved.	38 mas o vinho novo deve-se pôr em odres novos, e assim ambos se conservam.
39 And no one who is drinking the old, soon wishes for the new. For he says, ‘The old is better.’ ”	39 Demais, ninguém que bebeu do vinho velho quer já do novo, porque diz: O vinho velho é melhor.
