< Jeremiah 33 >

1 While I was still being guarded in the courtyard of the palace, Yahweh gave me this second message:
E veiu a palavra do Senhor a Jeremias, segunda vez, estando elle ainda encerrado no pateo da guarda, dizendo:
2 “This is what I, the one who made the earth, who formed/shaped it and put it in its place, say [to the people of Jerusalem]: ‘My name is Yahweh.
Assim diz o Senhor que o faz, o Senhor que forma isto, para o confirmar; o Senhor é o seu nome.
3 Call out to me, and [then] I will tell you great and wonderful things that you have not known [before].’
Clama a mim, e responder-te-hei, e annunciar-te-hei coisas grandes e firmes que não sabes.
4 This is what [I, ] Yahweh, the God whom [you] Israeli people [say you belong to], say: ‘[The men in this city] have torn down [some of] their houses, and [even parts of] the king’s palace, to get materials to strengthen the walls around the city, in order that [the soldiers of Babylonia will not be able to break through the walls after they climb up] the ramps that they have built against the walls, and [kill the inhabitants with] their swords.
Porque assim diz o Senhor, o Deus de Israel, das casas d'esta cidade, e das casas dos reis de Judah, que foram derribadas com os trabucos e á espada.
5 You are expecting to fight against the army from Babylonia, but [what will happen is that] the houses of this city will be filled with the corpses of the men of this city whom I will [allow to be killed] because I am extremely angry [DOU] with them. I have abandoned them because of all the wicked things that they have done.
Bem entraram a pelejar contra os chaldeos, mas isso é para os encher de cadaveres de homens, que feri na minha ira e no meu furor: porquanto escondi o meu rosto d'esta cidade, por causa de toda a sua maldade.
6 However, [there will be a time when] I will cause the people in this city to be healthy and strong again. I will enable them to be prosperous and have peace.
Eis que eu farei subir sobre ella saude e cura, e os sararei; e lhes manifestarei abundancia de paz e de verdade.
7 I will bring the people of Judah and Israel back from the lands to which they were exiled. I will enable them to rebuild their towns.
E tornarei o captiveiro de Judah e o captiveiro de Israel, e os edificarei como ao principio.
8 I will get rid of their guilt for all the sins that they have committed against me, and I will forgive them for their sin of rebelling against me.
E os purificarei de toda a sua maldade com que peccaram contra mim: e perdoarei todas as suas maldades, com que peccaram contra mim, e com que transgrediram contra mim.
9 [When that happens], all the nations of the world will rejoice, and they will praise me and honor me. They will hear about all the good things that I have done for this city and, because of that, they will revere me, and they will tremble because I have caused [the people in this city] to have peace and to prosper.’
E servir-me-ha de nome de alegria, de louvor, e de ornamento, entre todas as nações da terra, que ouvirem todo o bem que eu lhes faço; e espantar-se-hão e perturbar-se-hão por causa de todo o bem, e por causa de toda a paz que eu lhes dou.
10 And this is also what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘You people have said that this is a land where there are no [longer] any people or animals. But in the streets of Jerusalem that are now completely empty [DOU], and in the [other] towns in Judah,
Assim diz o Senhor: N'este logar (de que vós dizeis que está deserto, e não ha n'elle nem homem nem animal) nas cidades de Judah, e nas ruas de Jerusalem, que tão assoladas estão, que não ha n'ellas nem homem, nem morador, nem animal, ainda se ouvirá.
11 [some day] people will again be happy and laugh. Brides and bridegrooms will [again] sing [joyfully]. And many other people will also sing joyfully as they bring their offerings to me to thank me [for what I have done for them]. [They will sing this song]: “[We] thank you, the Commander of the armies of angels, because you are good [to us]. You faithfully love [us] forever.” [They will sing that] because I will cause [the people of] land to be as prosperous as they were before.’
A voz de gozo, e a voz d'alegria, a voz de noivo e a voz de esposa, e a voz dos que dizem: Louvae ao Senhor dos Exercitos, porque bom é o Senhor, porque a sua benignidade dura perpetuamente; como tambem dos que trazem louvor á casa do Senhor; porque tornarei o captiveiro da terra como ao principio, diz o Senhor.
12 This land is [now] desolate. There are no people or animals living here. But [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say this: ‘In this land there will again be pastures/fields where shepherds will lead their sheep.
Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos: Ainda n'este logar, que está tão deserto, que não ha n'elle nem homem, nem ainda animal, e em todas as suas cidades, haverá uma morada de pastores, que façam repousar o gado
13 Shepherds will again count their sheep as the sheep walk by, outside the towns in the hilly area, in the western foothills, in the southern desert area, in the land [where the descendants] of Benjamin live, around Jerusalem, and outside [all] the [other] towns in Judah.’ [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.
Nas cidades das montanhas, nas cidades das planicies, e nas cidades do sul, e na terra de Benjamin, e nos contornos de Jerusalem, e nas cidades de Judah, ainda passará o gado pelas mãos dos contadores, diz o Senhor.
14 Listen to this! [I], Yahweh, say that there will be a time when I will do for the people of Israel and Judah [all the good things that] I promised to do [for them].
Eis que veem dias, diz o Senhor, em que cumprirei a palavra boa que fallei á casa de Israel e sob a casa de Judah.
15 At that time [DOU] I will appoint a righteous man who will be a descendant [MET] of King David. Throughout the land, he will do what is just and right.
N'aquelles dias e n'aquelle tempo farei brotar a David um Renovo de justiça, e fará juizo e justiça na terra.
16 At that time, [the people of] Judah will be rescued [from their enemies], and [the people of] Jerusalem will be safe. And people will say that the name of the city is ‘Yahweh [is the one who] vindicates/defends us’.
N'aquelles dias Judah será salvo e Jerusalem habitará seguramente: e este é o nome que lhe chamarão a elle, o Senhor justiça nossa.
17 And this is [also] what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘There will be descendants of King David ruling [MTY] Israel forever.
Porque assim diz o Senhor: Nunca faltará a David varão que se assente sobre o throno da casa de Israel;
18 And there will always be priests who are descendants of Levi who [stand] in front of me and offer sacrifices that will be completely burned [on the altar] and who will burn grain offerings and [other] sacrifices.’”
Nem aos sacerdotes leviticos faltará varão de diante de mim, que offereça holocausto, e queime offerta de manjares, e faça sacrificio todos os dias.
19 [Then] Yahweh gave me this message:
E veiu a palavra do Senhor a Jeremias, dizendo:
20 “This is what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘[You] certainly cannot annul my promise/agreement to cause nighttime to follow daytime each day.
Assim diz o Senhor: Se poderdes invalidar o meu concerto do dia, e o meu concerto da noite, de tal modo que não haja dia e noite a seu tempo,
21 Similarly, you cannot annul the promise/agreement [that I made] with King David, who served me [well], that there will always be descendants of his who will rule [Judah]. The same is true for my agreement with the descendants of Levi who are priests who do work for me.
Tambem se poderá invalidar o meu concerto com David, meu servo, para que não tenha filho que reine no seu throno; como tambem com os levitas sacerdotes, meus ministros.
22 No one can count the stars in the sky, and no one can count the grains of sand at the seashore. Similarly, I will cause there to be a huge number of priests who are descendants of David and descendants of Levi who will work for me.’”
Como não se pode contar o exercito dos céus, nem medir-se a areia do mar, assim multiplicarei a semente de David, meu servo, e os levitas que ministram diante de mim.
23 Yahweh gave another message to me. He said,
E veiu ainda a palavra do Senhor a Jeremias, dizendo:
24 “Have you noticed/heard that some people are saying, ‘Yahweh chose two groups, the people [of Judah] and the people [of Israel], and [later] abandoned them.’ They are despising my people and saying that Israel no longer deserves to be considered a nation.
Porventura não tens visto o que este povo falla, dizendo: As duas gerações, as quaes o Senhor elegeu, agora as rejeitou? e desprezam o meu povo, como se não fôra mais um povo diante d'elles.
25 But this is what I say: ‘I will not change my laws that control the day and the night, the sky and the earth.
Assim diz o Senhor: Se o meu concerto do dia e da noite não fôr, e eu não pozer as ordenanças dos céus e da terra,
26 Similarly, I will never abandon the descendants of David or the [other] descendants of Jacob, and I will always allow descendants of David to rule the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will bring my people back to their land, and I will act mercifully toward them.’”
Tambem rejeitarei a semente de Jacob, e de David, meu servo, para que não tome da sua semente os que dominem sobre a semente de Abrahão, Isaac, e Jacob; porque tornarei o seu captiveiro, e apiedar-me-hei d'elles.
