Lucas 3

1E no ano quinze do império de Tibério César, sendo Pôncio Pilatos presidente da Judéia, e Herodes tetrarca da Galiléia, e seu irmão Filipe tetrarca da Ituréia e da província de Traconites, e Lisânias tetrarca de Abilene,

1Now 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, {tetrarch: or, governor of four provinces}

2Sendo Anás e Caifás sumos sacerdotes, veio no deserto a palavra de Deus a João, filho de Zacarias.

2Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

3E percorreu toda a terra ao redor do Jordão, pregando o batismo de arrependimento, para o perdão dos pecados;

3And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;

4Segundo o que está escrito no livro das palavras do profeta Isaías, que diz: Voz do que clama no deserto: Preparai o caminho do Senhor; Endireitai as suas veredas.

4As 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.

5Todo o vale se encherá, E se abaixará todo o monte e outeiro; E o que é tortuoso se endireitará, E os caminhos escabrosos se aplanarão;

5Every 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;

6E toda a carne verá a salvação de Deus.

6And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.

7Dizia, pois, João à multidão que saía para ser batizada por ele: Raça de víboras, quem vos ensinou a fugir da ira que está para vir?

7Then 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?

8Produzi, pois, frutos dignos de arrependimento, e não comeceis a dizer em vós mesmos: Temos Abraão por pai; porque eu vos digo que até destas pedras pode Deus suscitar filhos a Abraão.

8Bring 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. {worthy of: or, meet for}

9E também já está posto o machado à raiz das árvores; toda a árvore, pois, que não dá bom fruto, corta-se e lança-se no fogo.

9And 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.

10E a multidão o interrogava, dizendo: Que faremos, pois?

10And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?

11E, respondendo ele, disse-lhes: Quem tiver duas túnicas, reparta com o que não tem, e quem tiver alimentos, faça da mesma maneira.

11He 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.

12E chegaram também uns publicanos, para serem batizados, e disseram-lhe: Mestre, que devemos fazer?

12Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?

13E ele lhes disse: Não peçais mais do que o que vos está ordenado.

13And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.

14E uns soldados o interrogaram também, dizendo: E nós que faremos? E ele lhes disse: A ninguém trateis mal nem defraudeis, e contentai-vos com o vosso soldo.

14And 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. {Do violence...: or, Put no man in fear} {wages: or, allowance}

15E, estando o povo em expectação, e pensando todos de João, em seus corações, se porventura seria o Cristo,

15And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not; {in expectation: or, in suspense} {mused: or, reasoned, or, debated}

16Respondeu João a todos, dizendo: Eu, na verdade, batizo-vos com água, mas eis que vem aquele que é mais poderoso do que eu, do qual não sou digno de desatar a correia das alparcas; esse vos batizará com o Espírito Santo e com fogo.

16John 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:

17Ele tem a pá na sua mão; e limpará a sua eira, e ajuntará o trigo no seu celeiro, mas queimará a palha com fogo que nunca se apaga.

17Whose 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.

18E assim, admoestando-os, muitas outras coisas também anunciava ao povo.

18And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.

19Sendo, porém, o tetrarca Herodes repreendido por ele por causa de Herodias, mulher de seu irmão Filipe, e por todas as maldades que Herodes tinha feito,

19But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,

20Acrescentou a todas as outras ainda esta, a de encerrar João num cárcere.

20Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.

21E aconteceu que, como todo o povo se batizava, sendo batizado também Jesus, orando ele, o céu se abriu;

21Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,

22E o Espírito Santo desceu sobre ele em forma corpórea, como pomba; e ouviu-se uma voz do céu, que dizia: Tu és o meu Filho amado, em ti me comprazo.

22And 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.
