Apocalipse 13

SAGRADA BIBLIA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Vi, então, levantar-se do mar uma Fera que tinha dez chifres e sete cabeças; sobre os chifres, dez diademas; e nas suas cabeças, nomes blasfematórios.	1 And I saw a beast ascending from the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon its horns were ten diadems, and upon its heads were names of blasphemy.
2 A Fera que eu vi era semelhante a uma pantera: os pés como de urso, e as fauces como de leão. Deu-lhe o Dragão o seu poder, o seu trono e grande autoridade.	2 And the beast that I saw was similar to a leopard, and its feet were like the feet of a bear, and its mouth was like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave his own power and great authority to it.
3 Uma das suas cabeças estava como que ferida de morte, mas essa ferida de morte fora curada. E todos, pasmados de admiração, seguiram a Fera	3 And I saw that one of its heads seemed to be slain unto death, but his deadly wound was healed. And the entire world was in wonder following the beast.
4 e prostraram-se diante do Dragão, porque dera seu prestígio à Fera, e prostraram-se igualmente diante da Fera, dizendo: Quem é semelhante à Fera e quem poderá lutar com ela?	4 And they worshiped the dragon, who gave authority to the beast. And they worshiped the beast, saying: “Who is like the beast? And who would be able to fight with it?”
5 Foi-lhe dada a faculdade de proferir arrogâncias e blasfêmias, e foi-lhe dado o poder de agir por quarenta e dois meses.	5 And there was given to it a mouth, speaking great things and blasphemies. And authority was given to him to act for forty-two months.
6 Abriu, pois, a boca em blasfêmias contra Deus, para blasfemar o seu nome, o seu tabernáculo e os habitantes do céu.	6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name and his tabernacle and those who dwell in heaven.
7 Foi-lhe dado, também, fazer guerra aos santos e vencê-los. Recebeu autoridade sobre toda tribo, povo, língua e nação,	7 And it was given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given to him over every tribe and people and language and nation.
8 e hão de adorá-la todos os habitantes da terra, cujos nomes não estão escritos desde a origem do mundo no livro da vida do Cordeiro imolado.	8 And all who inhabit the earth worshiped the beast, those whose names have not been written, from the origin of the world, in the Book of Life of the Lamb who was slain.
9 Quem tiver ouvidos, ouça!	9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
10 Quem procura prender será preso. Quem matar pela espada, pela espada deve ser morto. Esta é a ocasião para a constância e a confiança dos santos!	10 Whoever will be led into captivity, into captivity he goes. Whoever will kill with the sword, with the sword he must be killed. Here is the patient endurance and faith of the Saints.
11 Vi, então, outra Fera subir da terra. Tinha dois chifres como um cordeiro, mas falava como um dragão.	11 And I saw another beast ascending from the land. And she had two horns like the Lamb, but she was speaking like the dragon.
12 Ela exercia todo o poder da primeira Fera, sob a vigilância desta, e fez com que a terra e os seus habitantes adorassem a primeira Fera {cuja ferida de morte havia sido curada}.	12 And she acted with all the authority of the first beast in his sight. And she caused the earth, and those dwelling in it, to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 Realizou grandes prodígios, de modo que até fez descer fogo do céu sobre a terra, à vista dos homens.	13 And she accomplished great signs, even so that she would cause fire to descend from the sky to the earth in the sight of men.
14 Seduziu os habitantes da terra com os prodígios que lhe era dado fazer sob a vigilância da Fera, persuadindo-os a fazer uma imagem da Fera que sobrevivera ao golpe da espada.	14 And she seduced those living on the earth, by means of the signs that were given to her to perform in the sight of the beast, saying to those dwelling on the earth that they should make an image of the beast who had a wound of the sword and yet lived.
15 Foi-lhe dado, também, comunicar espírito à imagem da Fera, de modo que essa imagem se pusesse a falar e fizesse com que fosse morto todo aquele que não se prostrasse diante dela.	15 And it was given to her to give a spirit to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast would speak. And she acted so that whoever would not worship the image of the beast would be slain.
16 Conseguiu que todos, pequenos e grandes, ricos e pobres, livres e escravos, tivessem um sinal na mão direita e na fronte,	16 And she will cause everyone, small and great, wealthy and poor, free and servant, to have a character on their right hand or on their foreheads,
17 e que ninguém pudesse comprar ou vender, se não fosse marcado com o nome da Fera, ou o número do seu nome.	17 so that no one may buy or sell, unless he has the character, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Eis aqui a sabedoria! Quem tiver inteligência, calcule o número da Fera, porque é número de um homem, e esse número é seiscentos e sessenta e seis.	18 Here is wisdom. Whoever has intelligence, let him determine the number of the beast. For it is the number of a man, and his number is six hundred and sixty-six.
