Lucas 3

1No ano quinze do império de Tibério César, sendo Pôncio Pilatos o governador da Judeia, Herodes tetraca da Galileia, e seu irmão Filipe o tetrarca da Itureia e da província de Traconites, e Lisânias o 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,

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

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

3Ele percorreu toda a região 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;

4conforme 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 vale se encherá, e todo monte e colina se abaixará; os tortos serão endireitados, e os caminhos ásperos se suavizarão;

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 todos verão a salvação de Deus.”

6And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.

7João dizia às multidões que vinham ser batizadas por ele: “Raça de víboras, quem vos ensinou a fugir da ira que está para chegar?

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?

8Dai, pois, frutos condizentes com o arrependimento, e não comeceis a dizer em vós mesmos: ‘Temos Abraão por pai’; pois eu vos digo que até destas pedras Deus pode produzir 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.

9E também o machado já está posto à raiz das árvores; portanto, toda árvore que não dá bom fruto é cortada e lançada ao 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 as multidões lhe perguntavam: Então o que devemos fazer?

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

11E ele lhes respondeu: Quem tiver duas túnicas, reparta com o não tem; e quem tiver comida, 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 exijais mais do que vos está ordenado.

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

14E uns soldados também lhe perguntaram: E nós, que devemos fazer? E ele lhes disse: Não maltrateis nem defraudeis a ninguém; e contentai-vos com vossos salários.

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.

15E, enquanto o povo estava em expectativa, e todos pensando em seus corações se talvez João 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;

16João respondeu a todos: De fato, eu vos batizo com água, mas vem um que é mais poderoso do que eu, de quem eu não sou digno de desatar a tira das sandálias; ele 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:

17Sua pá está na sua mão, e limpará sua eira, e juntará o trigo no seu celeiro; porém 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.

18Assim, exortando com muitas outras coisas, João anunciava a boa notícia ao povo.

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

19Porém, quando Herodes, o tetrarca, foi repreendido por ele por causa de Herodias, mulher do seu irmão Filipe, e por todas as maldades que Herodes havia 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 ainda esta: encarcerou João na prisão.

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

21E aconteceu que, quando todo o povo era batizado, Jesus também foi batizado, e enquanto orava, 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 veio do céu uma voz que dizia: Tu és o meu Filho amado, em ti me agrado.

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.
