1 R eunindo os doze, deu-lhes poder e autoridade sobre todos os demônios, e para curarem doenças;

Then Jesus called together the Twelve and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases,

2 e enviou-os a pregar o reino de Deus, e fazer curas,

And He sent them out to announce and preach the kingdom of God and to bring healing.

3 d izendo-lhes: Nada leveis para o caminho, nem bordão, nem alforje, nem pão, nem dinheiro; nem tenhais duas túnicas.

And He said to them, Do not take anything for your journey—neither walking stick, nor wallet, nor food of any kind, nor money, and do not have two undergarments (tunics).

4 E m qualquer casa em que entrardes, nela ficai, e dali partireis.

And whatever house you enter, stay there until you go away.

5 M as, onde quer que não vos receberem, saindo daquela cidade, sacudi o pó dos vossos pés, em testemunho contra eles.

And wherever they do not receive and accept and welcome you, when you leave that town shake off the dust from your feet, as a testimony against them.

6 S aindo, pois, os discípulos percorreram as aldeias, anunciando o evangelho e fazendo curas por toda parte.

And departing, they went about from village to village, preaching the Gospel and restoring the afflicted to health everywhere.

7 O ra, o tetrarca Herodes soube de tudo o que se passava, e ficou muito perplexo, porque diziam uns: João ressuscitou dos mortos;

Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was being done by, and he was perplexed and troubled, because it was said by some that John had been raised from the dead,

8 o utros: Elias apareceu; e outros: Um dos antigos profetas se levantou.

And by others that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the prophets of old had come back to life.

9 H erodes, porém, disse: A João eu mandei degolar; quem é, pois, este a respeito de quem ouço tais coisas? E procurava vê-lo.

But Herod said, John I beheaded; but Who is this about Whom I such things by hearsay? And he sought to see Him.

10 Q uando os apóstolos voltaram, contaram-lhe tudo o que havia feito. E ele, levando-os consigo, retirou-se ã parte para uma cidade chamada Betsaida.

Upon their return, the apostles reported to Jesus all that they had done. And He took them and withdrew into privacy near a town called Bethsaida.

11 M as as multidões, percebendo isto, seguiram-no; e ele as recebeu, e falava-lhes do reino de Deus, e sarava os que necessitavam de cura.

But when the crowds learned of it, followed Him; and He welcomed them and talked to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who needed restoration to health.

12 O ra, quando o dia começava a declinar, aproximando-se os doze, disseram-lhe: Despede a multidão, para que, indo

Now the day began to decline, and the Twelve came and said to Him, Dismiss the crowds and send them away, so that they may go to the neighboring hamlets and villages and the surrounding country and find lodging and get a supply of provisions, for we are here in an uninhabited (barren, solitary) place.

13 M as ele lhes disse: Dai-lhes vós de comer. Responderam eles: Não temos senão cinco pães e dois peixes; salvo se nós formos comprar comida para todo este povo.

But He said to them, You give them to eat. They said, We have no more than five loaves and two fish—unless we are to go and buy food for all this crowd,

14 P ois eram cerca de cinco mil homens. Então disse a seus discípulos: Fazei-os reclinar-se em grupos de cerca de cinquenta cada um.

For there were about 5, 000 men. And said to His disciples, Have them reclining in table groups (companies) of about fifty each.

15 A ssim o fizeram, mandando que todos se reclinassem.

And they did so, and made them all recline.

16 E tomando Jesus os cinco pães e os dois peixes, e olhando para o céu, os abençoou e partiu, e os entregava aos seus discípulos para os porem diante da multidão.

And taking the five loaves and the two fish, He looked up to heaven and gave thanks and asked Him to bless them. Then He broke them and gave them to the disciples to place before the multitude.

17 T odos, pois, comeram e se fartaram; e foram levantados, do que lhes sobejou, doze cestos de pedaços.

And all the people ate and were satisfied. And they gathered up what remained over—twelve '> small hand] baskets of broken pieces.

18 E nquanto ele estava orando ã parte achavam-se com ele somente seus discípulos; e perguntou-lhes: Quem dizem as multidões que eu sou?

Now it occurred that as Jesus was praying privately, the disciples were with Him, and He asked them, Who do men say that I am?

19 R esponderam eles: Uns dizem: João, o Batista; outros: Elias; e ainda outros, que um dos antigos profetas se levantou.

And they answered, John the Baptist; but some say, Elijah; and others, that one of the ancient prophets has come back to life.

20 E ntão lhes perguntou: Mas vós, quem dizeis que eu sou? Respondendo Pedro, disse: O Cristo de Deus.

And He said to them, But who do you say that I am? And Peter replied, The Christ of God!

21 J esus, porém, advertindo-os, mandou que não contassem isso a ninguém;

But He strictly charged and sharply commanded them '> under penalty] to tell this to no one '> whoever he might be],

22 e disse-lhes: É necessário que o Filho do homem padeça muitas coisas, que seja rejeitado pelos anciãos, pelos principais sacerdotes e escribas, que seja morto, e que ao terceiro dia ressuscite.

Saying, The Son of Man must suffer many things and be '> deliberately] disapproved and repudiated and rejected on the part of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be put to death and on the third day be raised.

23 E m seguida dizia a todos: Se alguém quer vir após mim, negue-se a si mesmo, tome cada dia a sua cruz, e siga-me.

And He said to all, If any person wills to come after Me, let him deny himself '> disown himself, forget, lose sight of himself and his own interests, refuse and give up himself] and take up his cross daily and follow Me '> cleave steadfastly to Me, conform wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying also].

24 P ois quem quiser salvar a sua vida, perdê-la-á; mas quem perder a sua vida por amor de mim, esse a salvará.

For whoever would preserve his life and save it will lose and destroy it, but whoever loses his life for My sake, he will preserve and save it '> from the penalty of eternal death].

25 P ois, que aproveita ao homem ganhar o mundo inteiro, e perder-se, ou prejudicar-se a si mesmo?

For what does it profit a man, if he gains the whole world and ruins or forfeits (loses) himself?

26 P orque, quem se envergonhar de mim e das minhas palavras, dele se envergonhará o Filho do homem, quando vier na sua glória, e na do Pai e dos santos anjos.

Because whoever is ashamed of Me and of My teachings, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed when He comes in the '> threefold] glory (the splendor and majesty) of Himself and of the Father and of the holy angels.

27 M as em verdade vos digo: Alguns há, dos que estão aqui, que de modo nenhum provarão a morte até que vejam o reino de Deus.

However I tell you truly, there are some of those standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.

28 C erca de oito dias depois de ter proferido essas palavras, tomou Jesus consigo a Pedro, a João e a Tiago, e subiu ao monte para orar.

Now about eight days after these teachings, Jesus took with Him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray.

29 E nquanto ele orava, mudou-se a aparência do seu rosto, e a sua roupa tornou-se branca e resplandecente.

And as He was praying, the appearance of His countenance became altered (different), and His raiment became dazzling white '> flashing with the brilliance of lightning].

30 E eis que estavam falando com ele dois varões, que eram Moisés e Elias,

And behold, two men were conversing with Him—Moses and Elijah,

31 o s quais apareceram com glória, e falavam da sua partida que estava para cumprir-se em Jerusalém.

Who appeared in splendor and majesty and brightness and were speaking of His exit, which He was about to bring to realization at Jerusalem.

32 O ra, Pedro e os que estavam com ele se haviam deixado vencer pelo sono; despertando, porém, viram a sua glória e os dois varões que estavam com ele.

Now Peter and those with him were weighed down with sleep, but when they fully awoke, they saw His glory (splendor and majesty and brightness) and the two men who stood with Him.

33 E , quando estes se apartavam dele, disse Pedro a Jesus: Mestre, bom é estarmos nós aqui: façamos, pois, três cabanas, uma para ti, uma para Moisés, e uma para Elias, não sabendo o que dizia.

And it occurred as the men were parting from Him that Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is delightful and good that we are here; and let us construct three booths or huts—one for You and one for Moses and one for Elijah! not noticing or knowing what he was saying.

34 E nquanto ele ainda falava, veio uma nuvem que os cobriu; e se atemorizaram ao entrarem na nuvem.

But even as he was saying this, a cloud came and began to overshadow them, and they were seized with alarm and struck with fear as they entered into the cloud.

35 E da nuvem saiu uma voz que dizia: Este é o meu Filho, o meu eleito; a ele ouvi.

Then there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is My Son, My Chosen One or My Beloved; listen to and yield to and obey Him!

36 A o soar esta voz, Jesus foi achado sozinho; e eles calaram-se, e por aqueles dias não contaram a ninguém nada do que tinham visto.

And when the voice had died away, Jesus was found there alone. And they kept still, and told no one at that time any of these things that they had seen.

37 N o dia seguinte, quando desceram do monte, veio-lhe ao encontro uma grande multidão.

Now it occurred the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met Him.

38 E eis que um homem dentre a multidão clamou, dizendo: Mestre, peço-te que olhes para meu filho, porque é o único que tenho;

And behold, a man from the crowd shouted out, Master, I implore You to look at my son, for he is my only child;

39 p ois um espírito se apodera dele, fazendo-o gritar subitamente, convulsiona-o até escumar e, mesmo depois de o ter quebrantado, dificilmente o larga.

And behold, a spirit seizes him and suddenly he cries out; it convulses him so that he foams at the mouth; and he is sorely shattered, and it will scarcely leave him.

40 E roguei aos teus discípulos que o expulsassem, mas não puderam.

And I implored Your disciples to drive it out, but they could not.

41 R espondeu Jesus: Ó geração incrédula e perversa! até quando estarei convosco e vos sofrerei? Traze-me cá o teu filho.

Jesus answered, O unbelieving and without trust in God, a perverse ( wayward, crooked and warped) generation! Until when and how long am I to be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here.

42 A inda quando ele vinha chegando, o demônio o derribou e o convulsionou; mas Jesus repreendeu o espírito imundo, curou o menino e o entregou a seu pai.

And even while he was coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him. But Jesus censured and severely rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the child and restored him to his father.

43 E todos se maravilhavam da majestade de Deus. E admirando-se todos de tudo o que Jesus fazia, disse ele a seus discípulos:

And all were astounded at the evidence of God’s mighty power and His majesty and magnificence. But they were all marveling at everything Jesus was doing, He said to His disciples,

44 P onde vós estas palavras em vossos ouvidos; pois o Filho do homem está para ser entregue nas mãos dos homens.

Let these words sink into your ears: the Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men '> whose conduct is opposed to God].

45 E les, porém, não entendiam essa palavra, cujo sentido lhes era encoberto para que não o compreendessem; e temiam interrogá-lo a esse respeito.

However, they did not comprehend this saying; and it was kept hidden from them, so that they should not grasp it and understand, and they were afraid to ask Him about the statement.

46 E suscitou-se entre eles uma discussão sobre qual deles seria o maior.

But a controversy arose among them as to which of them might be the greatest.

47 M as Jesus, percebendo o pensamento de seus corações, tomou uma criança, pô-la junto de si,

But Jesus, as He perceived the thoughts of their hearts, took a little child and put him at His side

48 e disse-lhes: Qualquer que receber esta criança em meu nome, a mim me recebe; e qualquer que me receber a mim, recebe aquele que me enviou; pois aquele que entre vós todos é o menor, esse é grande.

And told them, Whoever receives and accepts and welcomes this child in My name and for My sake receives and accepts and welcomes Me; and whoever so receives Me so also receives Him Who sent Me. For he who is least and lowliest among you all—he is great.

49 D isse-lhe João: Mestre, vimos um homem que em teu nome expulsava demônios; e lho proibimos, porque não segue conosco.

John said, Master, we saw a man driving out demons in Your name and we commanded him to stop it, for he does not follow along with us.

50 R espondeu-lhe Jesus: Não lho proibais; porque quem não é contra vós é por vós.

But Jesus told him, Do not forbid; for whoever is not against you is for you.

51 O ra, quando se completavam os dias para a sua assunção, manifestou o firme propósito de ir a Jerusalém.

Now when the time was almost come for Jesus to be received up, He steadfastly and determinedly set His face to go to Jerusalem.

52 E nviou, pois, mensageiros adiante de si. Indo eles, entraram numa aldeia de samaritanos para lhe prepararem pousada.

And He sent messengers before Him; and they reached and entered a Samaritan village to make ready for Him;

53 M as não o receberam, porque viajava em direção a Jerusalém.

But would not welcome or receive or accept Him, because His face was going to Jerusalem.

54 V endo isto os discípulos Tiago e João, disseram: Senhor, queres que mandemos descer fogo do céu para os consumir

And when His disciples James and John observed this, they said, Lord, do You wish us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, even as Elijah did ?

55 E le porém, voltando-se, repreendeu-os,

But He turned and rebuked and severely censured them. He said, You do not know of what sort of spirit you are,

56 E foram para outra aldeia.

For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them. And they journeyed on to another village.

57 Q uando iam pelo caminho, disse-lhe um homem: Seguir-te-ei para onde quer que fores.

And it occurred that as they were going along the road, a man said to Him, Lord, I will follow You wherever You go.

58 R espondeu-lhe Jesus: As raposas têm covis, e as aves do céu têm ninhos; mas o Filho do homem não tem onde reclinar a cabeça.

And Jesus told him, Foxes have lurking holes and the birds of the air have roosts and nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head.

59 E a outro disse: Segue-me. Ao que este respondeu: Permite-me ir primeiro sepultar meu pai.

And He said to another, Become My disciple, side with My party, and accompany Me! But he replied, Lord, permit me first to go and bury ( await the death of) my father.

60 R eplicou-lhe Jesus: Deixa os mortos sepultar os seus próprios mortos; tu, porém, vai e anuncia o reino de Deus.

But Jesus said to him, Allow the dead to bury their own dead; but as for you, go and publish abroad throughout all regions the kingdom of God.

61 A inda outro disse: “Vou seguir-te, Senhor, mas deixa-me primeiro voltar e despedir-me da minha família”.

Another also said, I will follow You, Lord, and become Your disciple and side with Your party; but let me first say good-bye to those at my home.

62 J esus, porém, lhe respondeu: Ninguém que lança mão do arado e olha para trás é apto para o reino de Deus.

Jesus said to him, No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.
