1 ¶ And it came to pass, that when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking unto all the people all the words of the LORD their God, for which the LORD their God had sent him to them, even all these words,

Tendo Jeremias acabado de falar a todo o povo todas as palavras do Senhor seu Deus, aquelas palavras com as quais o Senhor seu Deus lho havia enviado,

2 T hen spoke Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the proud men, saying unto Jeremiah, Thou dost speak falsely; the LORD our God has not sent thee to say, Do not go into Egypt to sojourn there:

então falaram Azarias, filho de Hosaías, e Joanã, filho de Careá, e todos os homens soberbos, dizendo a Jeremias: Tu dizes mentiras; o Senhor nosso Deus não te enviou a dizer: Não entreis no Egito para ali peregrinardes;

3 b ut Baruch the son of Neriah sets thee on against us, to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they might put us to death and carry us away captives into Babylon.

mas Baruque, filho de Nerias, é que te incita contra nós, para nos entregar na mão dos caldeus, para eles nos matarem, ou para nos levarem cativos para Babilônia.

4 S o Johanan the son of Kareah and all the princes of the armies and all the people, did not hear the voice of the LORD, to dwell in the land of Judah.

Não obedeceu pois Joanã, filho de Careá, nem nenhum de todos os príncipes dos exércitos, nem o povo todo, ã voz do Senhor, para ficarem na terra de Judá.

5 B ut Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the princes of the armies, took all the remnant of Judah, that had returned from among all the Gentiles, where they had been driven, to dwell in the land of Judah;

Mas Joanã, filho de Careá, e todos os chefes das forças tomaram a todo o resto de Judá, que havia voltado dentre todas as nações, para onde haviam sido arrojados, com o fim de peregrinarem na terra de Judá;

6 m en and women and children and the king’s daughters, and every soul that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah;

aos homens,

7 a nd they left for the land of Egypt; because they did not listen to the voice of the LORD: thus they came even to Tahpanhes.

e entraram na terra do Egito; pois não obedeceram ã voz do Senhor; assim vieram até Tapanes.

8 ¶ Then the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,

Então veio a palavra do Senhor a Jeremias, em Tapanes, dizendo:

9 T ake great stones in thine hand and cover them with clay in a brickkiln, which is at the entry of Pharaoh’s house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah;

Toma na tua mão pedras grandes, e esconde-as com barro no pavimento que está ã entrada da casa de Faraó em Tapanes, ã vista dos homens de Judá;

10 a nd say unto them, Thus hath the LORD of the hosts, the God of Israel said; Behold, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my slave and will set his throne upon these stones that I have hid, and he shall spread his royal pavilion over them.

e dize-lhes: Assim diz o Senhor dos exércitos, Deus de Israel: Eis que eu enviarei, e tomarei a Nabucodonozor, rei de Babilônia, meu servo, e porei o seu trono sobre estas pedras que escondi; e ele estenderá o seu pavilhão real sobre elas.

11 A nd he shall come and smite the land of Egypt and deliver such as are for death to death; and such as are for captivity to captivity; and such as are for the sword to the sword.

Virá, e ferirá a terra do Egito, entregando ã morte quem é para a morte, ao cativeiro quem é para o cativeiro, e ã espada.

12 A nd I will put fire to the houses of the gods of Egypt; and he shall burn them and carry them away captives: and he shall array himself with the land of Egypt as a shepherd puts on his garment; and he shall go forth from there in peace.

E lançarei fogo

13 H e shall also break the images of Bethshemesh, that is in the land of Egypt; and the houses of the gods of the Egyptians shall he burn with fire.

E quebrará as colunas de Bete-Semes, que está na terra do Egito; e as casas dos deuses do Egito queimará a fogo.
