1 O ra, naquele mesmo tempo estavam presentes alguns que lhe falavam dos galileus cujo sangue Pilatos misturara com os sacrifícios deles.

Now on the same occasion there were some present who reported to Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

2 R espondeu-lhes Jesus: Pensais vós que esses foram maiores pecadores do que todos os galileus, por terem padecido tais coisas?

And Jesus said to them, “ Do you suppose that these Galileans were greater sinners than all other Galileans because they suffered this fate ?

3 N ão, eu vos digo; antes, se não vos arrependerdes, todos de igual modo perecereis.

I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.

4 O u pensais que aqueles dezoito, sobre os quais caiu a torre de Siloé e os matou, foram mais culpados do que todos os outros habitantes de Jerusalém?

Or do you suppose that those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them were worse culprits than all the men who live in Jerusalem?

5 N ão, eu vos digo; antes, se não vos arrependerdes, todos de igual modo perecereis.

I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.”

6 E passou a narrar esta parábola: Certo homem tinha uma figueira plantada na sua vinha; e indo procurar fruto nela, e não o achou.

And He began telling this parable: “A man had a fig tree which had been planted in his vineyard; and he came looking for fruit on it and did not find any.

7 D isse então ao viticultor: Eis que há três anos venho procurar fruto nesta figueira, e não o acho; corta-a; para que ocupa ela ainda a terra inutilmente?

And he said to the vineyard-keeper, ‘Behold, for three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree without finding any. Cut it down! Why does it even use up the ground?’

8 R espondeu-lhe ele: Senhor, deixa-a este ano ainda, até que eu cave em derredor, e lhe deite estrume;

And he answered and said to him, ‘Let it alone, sir, for this year too, until I dig around it and put in fertilizer;

9 e se no futuro der fruto, bem; mas, se não, cortá-la-ás.

and if it bears fruit next year, fine; but if not, cut it down.’” Healing on the Sabbath

10 J esus estava ensinando numa das sinagogas no sábado.

And He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.

11 E estava ali uma mulher que tinha um espírito de enfermidade havia já dezoito anos; e andava encurvada, e não podia de modo algum endireitar-se.

And there was a woman who for eighteen years had had a sickness caused by a spirit; and she was bent double, and could not straighten up at all.

12 V endo-a Jesus, chamou-a, e disse-lhe: Mulher, estás livre da tua enfermidade;

When Jesus saw her, He called her over and said to her, “Woman, you are freed from your sickness.”

13 e impôs-lhe as mãos e imediatamente ela se endireitou, e glorificava a Deus.

And He laid His hands on her; and immediately she was made erect again and began glorifying God.

14 E ntão o chefe da sinagoga, indignado porque Jesus curara no sábado, tomando a palavra disse ã multidão: Seis dias há em que se deve trabalhar; vinde, pois, neles para serdes curados, e não no dia de sábado.

But the synagogue official, indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, began saying to the crowd in response, “ There are six days in which work should be done; so come during them and get healed, and not on the Sabbath day.”

15 R espondeu-lhe, porém, o Senhor: Hipócritas, no sábado não desprende da manjedoura cada um de vós o seu boi, ou jumento, para o levar a beber?

But the Lord answered him and said, “You hypocrites, does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the stall and lead him away to water him ?

16 E não devia ser solta desta prisão, no dia de sábado, esta que é filha de Abraão, a qual há dezoito anos Satanás tinha presa?

And this woman, a daughter of Abraham as she is, whom Satan has bound for eighteen long years, should she not have been released from this bond on the Sabbath day?”

17 E dizendo ele essas coisas, todos os seus adversário ficavam envergonhados; e todo o povo se alegrava por todas as coisas gloriosas que eram feitas por ele.

As He said this, all His opponents were being humiliated; and the entire crowd was rejoicing over all the glorious things being done by Him. Parables of Mustard Seed and Leaven

18 E le, pois, dizia: A que é semelhante o reino de Deus, e a que o compararei?

So He was saying, “ What is the kingdom of God like, and to what shall I compare it?

19 É semelhante a um grão de mostarda que um homem tomou e lançou na sua horta; cresceu, e fez-se árvore, e em seus ramos se aninharam as aves do céu.

It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and threw into his own garden; and it grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.”

20 E disse outra vez: A que compararei o reino de Deus?

And again He said, “ To what shall I compare the kingdom of God?

21 É semelhante ao fermento que uma mulher tomou e misturou com três medidas de farinha, até ficar toda ela levedada.

It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three pecks of flour until it was all leavened.” Teaching in the Villages

22 A ssim percorria Jesus as cidades e as aldeias, ensinando, e caminhando para Jerusalém.

And He was passing through from one city and village to another, teaching, and proceeding on His way to Jerusalem.

23 E alguém lhe perguntou: Senhor, são poucos os que se salvam? Ao que ele lhes respondeu:

And someone said to Him, “Lord, are there just a few who are being saved?” And He said to them,

24 P orfiai por entrar pela porta estreita; porque eu vos digo que muitos procurarão entrar, e não poderão.

“ Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able.

25 Q uando o dono da casa se tiver levantado e cerrado a porta, e vós começardes, de fora, a bater ã porta, dizendo: Senhor, abre-nos; e ele vos responder: Não sei donde vós sois;

Once the head of the house gets up and shuts the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, ‘ Lord, open up to us!’ then He will answer and say to you, ‘ I do not know where you are from.’

26 e ntão começareis a dizer: Comemos e bebemos na tua presença, e tu ensinaste nas nossas ruas;

Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets’;

27 e ele vos responderá: Não sei donde sois; apartaivos de mim, vós todos os que praticais a iniqüidade.

and He will say, ‘I tell you, I do not know where you are from; depart from Me, all you evildoers.’

28 A li haverá choro e ranger de dentes quando virdes Abraão, Isaque, Jacó e todos os profetas no reino de Deus, e vós lançados fora.

In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but yourselves being thrown out.

29 M uitos virão do oriente e do ocidente, do norte e do sul, e reclinar-se-ão ã mesa no reino de Deus.

And they will come from east and west and from north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God.

30 P ois há últimos que serão primeiros, e primeiros que serão últimos.

And behold, some are last who will be first and some are first who will be last.”

31 N aquela mesma hora chegaram alguns fariseus que lhe disseram: Sai, e retira-te daqui, porque Herodes quer matar-te.

Just at that time some Pharisees approached, saying to Him, “Go away, leave here, for Herod wants to kill You.”

32 R espondeu-lhes Jesus: Ide e dizei a essa raposa: Eis que vou expulsando demônios e fazendo curas, hoje e amanhã, e no terceiro dia serei consumado.

And He said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I reach My goal.’

33 I mporta, contudo, caminhar hoje, amanhã, e no dia seguinte; porque não convém que morra um profeta fora de Jerusalém.

Nevertheless I must journey on today and tomorrow and the next day; for it cannot be that a prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem.

34 J erusalém, Jerusalém, que matas os profetas, e apedrejas os que a ti são enviados! Quantas vezes quis eu ajuntar os teus filhos, como a galinha ajunta a sua ninhada debaixo das asas, e não quiseste!

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, just as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not have it!

35 E is aí, abandonada vos é a vossa casa. E eu vos digo que não me vereis até que venha o tempo em que digais: Bendito aquele que vem em nome do Senhor.

Behold, your house is left to you desolate; and I say to you, you will not see Me until the time comes when you say, ‘ Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’”
