Odes de Salomão 21

1Os meus braços levantei no alto; Até a graça do Senhor:

1My arms I lifted up on high; Even to the grace of the Lord:

2Porque ele tinha lançado longe de mim as minhas cadeias; E o meu Auxiliador me tinha levantado para a sua graça e a sua salvação.

2Because He had cast off my bonds from me; And my Helper had lifted me up to His grace and His salvation.

3E despi a escuridão, E revesti-me de luz:

3And I put off darkness, And clothed myself with light:

4E a minha alma adquiriu membros Livres de tristeza, Ou de aflição ou de dor.

4And my soul acquired members Free from sorrow, Or affliction or pain.

5E cada vez mais útil me era o pensamento do Senhor; E a sua comunhão incorruptível.

5And increasingly helpful to me was the thought of the Lord; And His incorruptible fellowship.

6E fui elevado na luz, E passei diante dele;

6And I was lifted up in the light, And I passed before Him;

7E cheguei perto dele, Louvando-o e confessando-o.

7And I became near to Him, Praising and confessing Him.

8Fez transbordar o meu coração; e ele se achou na minha boca; E resplandeceu nos meus lábios.

8He made my heart overflow; and it was found in my mouth; And it shone upon my lips.

9E sobre o meu rosto cresceu a exultação do Senhor, E o seu louvor igualmente. Aleluia.

9And upon my face the exultation of the Lord increased, And His praise likewise. Hallelujah.
