| 1 Em seguida Jesus caminhava pelas cidades e aldeias, pregando e anunciando a boa nova do reino de Deus; andavam com ele os doze | 1 And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him, |
| 2 e algumas mulheres que tinham sido livradas de espíritos malignos e de enfermidades; Maria, chamada Madalena, da qual tinham saído sete demônios, | 2 And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils, |
| 3 Joana, mulher de Cusa, procurador de Herodes, Susana, e outras muitas, que lhe assistiam de suas posses. | 3 And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance. |
| 4 Tendo-se juntado uma grande multidão de povo, e, tendo ido ter com ele de diversas cidades, disse Jesus esta parábola: | 4 And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable: |
| 5 "Saiu o semeador a semear a sua semente; ao semeá-la, uma parte caiu ao longo do caminho; foi calcada, e as aves do céu comeram-na. | 5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it. |
| 6 Outra parte caiu sobre pedregulho; quando nasceu, secou, porque não tinha humidade. | 6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture. |
| 7 A outra parte caiu entre os espinhos; logo os espinhos, que nasceram com ela, a sufocaram. | 7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it. |
| 8 Outra parte caiu em boa terra; depois de nascer, deu fruto, cento por um." Dito isto, exclamou: "Quem tem ouvidos para ouvir, ouça!" | 8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. |
| 9 Os seus discípulos perguntaram-lhe o que significava esta parábola. | 9 And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be? |
| 10 Ele respondeu-lhes: "A vós é concedido conhecer o mistério do reino de Deus, mas aos outros ele é anunciado por parábolas; para que vendo não vejam, e ouvindo não entendam (Is. 6, 9-10). | 10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand. |
| 11 Eis o sentido da parábola: A semente é a palavra de Deus. | 11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. |
| 12 Os que estão ao longo do caminho, são aqueles que a ouvem, mas depois vem o demónio e tira a palavra do seu coração para que não se salvem crendo. | 12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. |
| 13 Aqueles (em que se semeia) sobre pedregulho, são os que recebem com gosto a palavra, quando a ouvem, mas não têm raízes; até certo ponto crêem, mas, no tempo da tentação, voltam atrás. | 13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away. |
| 14 A que caiu entre espinhos, representa aqueles que ouviram (a palavra), porém, indo por diante, ficam sufocados pelos cuidados, pelas riquezas, e pelos deleites desta vida, e não dão fruto. | 14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection. |
| 15 Enfim, a que caiu em boa terra, representa aqueles que, ouvindo a palavra com coração recto e bom, a retêm e dão fruto por sua perseverança. | 15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience. |
| 16 Ninguém, pois, acendendo uma lucerna, a cobre com um vaso ou a põe debaixo da cama, mas põe-na sobre um candeeiro, para que vejam a luz os que entram. | 16 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light. |
| 17 Porque nada há oculto que não acabe por ser manifestado, nem escondido que não deva saber-se e tornar-se público. | 17 For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad. |
| 18 Vede, pois, como ouvis. Porque àquele que tem, lhe será dado; e ao que não tem, ainda aquilo mesmo que julga ter, lhe será tirado." | 18 Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have. |
| 19 Foram ter com ele sua mãe e seus irmãos, e não podiam aproximar-se dele por causa da multidão, | 19 Then came to him his mother and his brethren, and could not come at him for the press. |
| 20 Foram dizer-lhe: "Tua mãe e teus irmãos estão lá fora, e querem ver-te." | 20 And it was told him by certain which said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee. |
| 21 Ele, respondeu-lhes: "Minha mãe e meus irmãos são aqueles que ouvem a palavra de Deus, e a praticam." | 21 And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it. |
| 22 Um dia, subiu com os seus discípulos para uma barca, e disse-lhes; "Passemos à outra margem do lago." Eles fizeram-se ao mar. | 22 Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his disciples: and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth. |
| 23 Enquanto iam navegando, Jesus adormeceu. Levantou-se uma tempestade de vento sobre o lago, e a barca enchia-se de água, e estavam em perigo. | 23 But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy. |
| 24 Aproximando-se dele, despertaram-no, dizendo: "Mestre, Mestre! nós perecemos." Ele, levantando-se, increpou o vento e as ondas, que acalmaram, e veio a bonança. | 24 And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm. |
| 25 Então disse-lhes: "Onde está a vossa fé?" Eles, cheios de temor, admiraram-se, dizendo uns para os outros: "Quem é este que manda aos ventos e ao mar, e eles lhe obedecem?" | 25 And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him. |
| 26 Arribaram ao país dos Gerasenos, que está fronteiro à Galileia. | 26 And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee. |
| 27 Logo que saltou em terra, foi ter com ele um homem daquele lugar, possesso de muitos demônios. Não se vestia à muito tempo, nem habitava em casa, mas nos sepulcros. | 27 And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs. |
| 28 Logo que viu Jesus, prostrou-se diante dele, e começou a vociferar: "Que tens tu comigo, Jesus, Filho do Deus Altíssimo? Suplico-te que me não atormentes." | 28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not. |
| 29 Porque Jesus mandava ao espírito imundo que saísse daquele homem, pois há muito tempo se tinha apoderado dele; estava preso com cadeias e grilhões, mas ele, quebradas as cadeias, era impelido pelo demônio para os desertos. | 29 (For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.) |
| 30 Jesus interrogou-o: "Que nome é o teu?" Ele respondeu : "Legião"; porque tinham entrado nele muitos demônios. | 30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him. |
| 31 Estes suplicavam-lhe que os não mandasse ir para o abismo. | 31 And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep. |
| 32 Ora andava por ali pastando no monte uma grande vara de porcos. Os demônios suplicavam-lhe que lhes permitisse entrar neles. Jesus lho permitiu. | 32 And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And he suffered them. |
| 33 Saíram, pois, do homem os demônios, entraram nos porcos; e logo a vara se precipitou com ímpeto por um despenhadeiro no lago, e se afogou. | 33 Then went the devils out of the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked. |
| 34 Quando os guardas viram isto, fugiram, e foram contá-lo à cidade e pelas aldeias. | 34 When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country. |
| 35 Saíram a ver o que tinha acontecido, foram ter com Jesus, encontraram sentado a seus pés, vestido e em seu juizo, o homem de quem tinham saído os demónios; e tiveram medo. | 35 Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid. |
| 36 Os que tinham presenciado contaram-lhes como o possesso tinha sido livrado. | 36 They also which saw it told them by what means he that was possessed of the devils was healed. |
| 37 E todo o povo do país dos Gerasenos pediu (a Jesus) que se retirasse deles; porque estavam possuídos de grande temor. Ele, subindo para a barca, fez-se de volta. | 37 Then the whole multitude of the country of the Gadarenes round about besought him to depart from them; for they were taken with great fear: and he went up into the ship, and returned back again. |
| 38 O homem, de quem tinham saído os demônios, pedia-lhe que o deixasse estar com ele. Porém, Jesus o despediu dizendo: | 38 Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying, |
| 39 "Volta para tua casa, e conta quanto Deus te fez." Ele foi e publicou por toda a cidade quanto Jesus lhe tinha feito. | 39 Return to thine own house, and shew how great things God hath done unto thee. And he went his way, and published throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done unto him. |
| 40 Tendo voltado Jesus, foi recebido pela multidão ; pois todos o estavam esperando, | 40 And it came to pass, that, when Jesus was returned, the people gladly received him: for they were all waiting for him. |
| 41 eis que veio um homem, chamado Jairo, que era o chefe da sinagoga; lançou-se aos pés de Jesus, implorando-lhe que fosse a sua casa, | 41 And, behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and besought him that he would come into his house: |
| 42 porque tinha uma filha única com cerca de doze anos, que estava a morrer. Sucedeu que, enquanto Jesus ia caminhando, era apertado pelo povo, | 42 For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him. |
| 43 Uma mulher, que padecia fluxo de sangue há doze anos, e tinha despendido com médicos todos os seus bens, sem poder ser curada por nenhum deles, | 43 And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any, |
| 44 aproximou-se por detrás e tocou a orla do seu vestido; imediatamente, parou o fluxo do seu sangue. | 44 Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched. |
| 45 Jesus perguntou: "Quem me tocou?" Negando todos, disse Pedro (e os que com ele estavam) : "Mestre, as multidões apertam-te e oprimem-te." | 45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? |
| 46 Mas Jesus disse: "Alguém me tocou, porque conheci que saiu de mim uma virtude." | 46 And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me. |
| 47 A mulher, vendo-se descoberta, aproximou-se tremendo, prostrou-se a seus pés, e declarou diante de todo o povo a causa por que o tinha tocado, e como ficara logo sã. | 47 And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him and how she was healed immediately. |
| 48 Jesus disse-lhe: "Filha, a tua fé te salvou; vai em paz." | 48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace. |
| 49 Ainda ele não tinha acabado de falar, quando veio um dizer ao chefe da sinagoga: "Tua filha morreu, não importunes mais o Mestre." | 49 While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master. |
| 50 Jesus, tendo ouvido estas palavras, disse ao pai da menina: "Não temas, crê sòmente e ela será salva." | 50 But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole. |
| 51 Tendo chegado a casa, não deixou entrar ninguém com ele, senão Pedro, Tiago e João, o pai e a mãe da menina. | 51 And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden. |
| 52 Entretanto todos choravam, e a lamentavam. Porém, ele disse-lhes: "Não choreis, (a menina) não está morta, mas dorme." | 52 And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. |
| 53 Zombaram dele, sabendo que estava morta. | 53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead. |
| 54 Então Jesus, tomando-a pela mão, disse em alta voz: "Menina, levanta-te." | 54 And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise. |
| 55 O seu espírito voltou, e levantou-se imediatamente. Ele mandou que lhe dessem de comer. | 55 And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat. |
| 56 Seus pais ficaram cheios de assombro, e Jesus ordenou-lhes que não dissessem a ninguém o que tinha acontecido. | 56 And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done. |
