Evangelho segundo São Lucas 3

SAGRADA BIBLIA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 No ano décimo quinto do reinado do imperador Tibério, sendo Pôncio Pilatos governador da Judéia, Herodes tetrarca da Galiléia, seu irmão Filipe tetrarca da Ituréia e da província de Traconites, e Lisânias tetrarca da Abilina,	1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
2 sendo sumos sacerdotes Anás e Caifás, veio a palavra do Senhor no deserto a João, filho de Zacarias.	2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
3 Ele percorria toda a região do Jordão, pregando o batismo de arrependimento para remissão dos pecados,	3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
4 como está escrito no livro das palavras do profeta Isaías {40,3ss.}: Uma voz clama no deserto: Preparai o caminho do Senhor, endireitai as suas veredas.	4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
5 Todo vale será aterrado, e todo monte e outeiro serão arrasados; tornar-se-á direito o que estiver torto, e os caminhos escabrosos serão aplainados.	5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;
6 Todo homem verá a salvação de Deus.	6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
7 Dizia, pois, ao povo que vinha para ser batizado por ele: Raça de víboras! Quem vos ensinou a fugir da ira iminente?	7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8 Fazei, pois, uma conversão realmente frutuosa e não comeceis a dizer: Temos Abraão por pai. Pois vos digo: Deus tem poder para destas pedras suscitar filhos a Abraão.	8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
9 O machado já está posto à raiz das árvores. E toda árvore que não der fruto bom será cortada e lançada ao fogo.	9 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
10 Perguntava-lhe a multidão: Que devemos fazer?	10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
11 Ele respondia: Quem tem duas túnicas dê uma ao que não tem; e quem tem o que comer, faça o mesmo.	11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.
12 Também publicanos vieram para ser batizados, e perguntaram-lhe: Mestre, que devemos fazer?	12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?
13 Ele lhes respondeu: Não exijais mais do que vos foi ordenado.	13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
14 Do mesmo modo, os soldados lhe perguntavam: E nós, que devemos fazer? Respondeu-lhes: Não pratiqueis violência nem defraudeis a ninguém, e contentai-vos com o vosso soldo.	14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.
15 Ora, como o povo estivesse na expectativa, e como todos perguntassem em seus corações se talvez João fosse o Cristo,	15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;
16 ele tomou a palavra, dizendo a todos: Eu vos batizo na água, mas eis que vem outro mais poderoso do que eu, a quem não sou digno de lhe desatar a correia das sandálias; ele vos batizará no Espírito Santo e no fogo.	16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
17 Ele tem a pá na mão e limpará a sua eira, e recolherá o trigo ao seu celeiro, mas queimará as palhas num fogo inextinguível.	17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
18 É assim que ele anunciava ao povo a boa nova, e dirigia-lhe ainda muitas outras exortações.	18 And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.
19 Mas Herodes, o tetrarca, repreendido por ele por causa de Herodíades, mulher de seu irmão, e por causa de todos os crimes que praticara,	19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,
20 acrescentou a todos eles também este: encerrou João no cárcere.	20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
21 Quando todo o povo ia sendo batizado, também Jesus o foi. E estando ele a orar, o céu se abriu	21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
22 e o Espírito Santo desceu sobre ele em forma corpórea, como uma pomba; e veio do céu uma voz: Tu és o meu Filho bem-amado; em ti ponho minha afeição.	22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
