Nova Versão Internacional NVI-PT
New International Version NIV
1 Por essa época, Judá deixou seus irmãos e passou a viver na casa de um homem de Adulão, chamado Hira.
1
At that time, Judah left his brothers and went down to stay with a man of Adullam named Hirah.
2 Ali Judá encontrou a filha de um cananeu chamado Suá e casou-se com ela. Ele a possuiu,
2
There Judah met the daughter of a Canaanite man named Shua. He married her and made love to her;
3 ela engravidou e deu à luz um filho, ao qual ele deu o nome de Er.
3
she became pregnant and gave birth to a son, who was named Er.
4 Tornou a engravidar, teve um filho e deu-lhe o nome de Onã.
4
She conceived again and gave birth to a son and named him Onan.
5 Quando estava em Quezibe, ela teve ainda outro filho e chamou-o Selá.
5
She gave birth to still another son and named him Shelah. It was at Kezib that she gave birth to him.
6 Judá escolheu uma mulher chamada Tamar para Er, seu filho mais velho.
6
Judah got a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
7 Mas o SENHOR reprovou a conduta perversa de Er, filho mais velho de Judá, e por isso o matou.
7
But Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the LORD’s sight; so the LORD put him to death.
8 Então Judá disse a Onã: “Case-se com a mulher do seu irmão, cumpra as suas obrigações de cunhado para com ela e dê uma descendência a seu irmão”.
8
Then Judah said to Onan, “Sleep with your brother’s wife and fulfill your duty to her as a brother-in-law to raise up offspring for your brother.”
9 Mas Onã sabia que a descendência não seria sua; assim, toda vez que possuía a mulher do seu irmão, derramava o sêmen no chão para evitar que seu irmão tivesse descendência.
9
But Onan knew that the child would not be his; so whenever he slept with his brother’s wife, he spilled his semen on the ground to keep from providing offspring for his brother.
10 O SENHOR reprovou o que ele fazia, e por isso o matou também.
10
What he did was wicked in the LORD’s sight; so the LORD put him to death also.
11 Disse então Judá à sua nora Tamar: “More como viúva na casa de seu pai até que o meu filho Selá cresça”, porque temia que ele viesse a morrer, como os seus irmãos. Assim Tamar foi morar na casa do pai.
11
Judah then said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Live as a widow in your father’s household until my son Shelah grows up.” For he thought, “He may die too, just like his brothers.” So Tamar went to live in her father’s household.
12 Tempos depois morreu a mulher de Judá, filha de Suá. Passado o luto, Judá foi ver os tosquiadores do seu rebanho em Timna com o seu amigo Hira, o adulamita.
12
After a long time Judah’s wife, the daughter of Shua, died. When Judah had recovered from his grief, he went up to Timnah, to the men who were shearing his sheep, and his friend Hirah the Adullamite went with him.
13 Quando foi dito a Tamar: “Seu sogro está a caminho de Timna para tosquiar suas ovelhas”,
13
When Tamar was told, “Your father-in-law is on his way to Timnah to shear his sheep,”
14 ela trocou suas roupas de viúva, cobriu-se com um véu para se disfarçar e foi sentar-se à entrada de Enaim, que fica no caminho de Timna. Ela fez isso porque viu que, embora Selá já fosse crescido, ela não lhe tinha sido dada em casamento.
14
she took off her widow’s clothes, covered herself with a veil to disguise herself, and then sat down at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah. For she saw that, though Shelah had now grown up, she had not been given to him as his wife.
15 Quando a viu, Judá pensou que fosse uma prostituta, porque ela havia encoberto o rosto.
15
When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face.
16 Não sabendo que era a sua nora, dirigiu-se a ela, à beira da estrada, e disse: “Venha cá, quero deitar-me com você”.Ela lhe perguntou: “O que você me dará para deitar-se comigo?”
16
Not realizing that she was his daughter-in-law, he went over to her by the roadside and said, “Come now, let me sleep with you.” “And what will you give me to sleep with you?” she asked.
17 Disse ele: “Eu lhe mandarei um cabritinho do meu rebanho”.E ela perguntou: “Você me deixará alguma coisa como garantia até que o mande?”
17
“I’ll send you a young goat from my flock,” he said. “Will you give me something as a pledge until you send it?” she asked.
18 Disse Judá: “Que garantia devo dar-lhe?”Respondeu ela: “O seu selo com o cordão, e o cajado que você tem na mão”. Ele os entregou e a possuiu, e Tamar engravidou dele.
18
He said, “What pledge should I give you?” “Your seal and its cord, and the staff in your hand,” she answered. So he gave them to her and slept with her, and she became pregnant by him.
19 Ela se foi, tirou o véu e tornou a vestir as roupas de viúva.
19
After she left, she took off her veil and put on her widow’s clothes again.
20 Judá mandou o cabritinho por meio de seu amigo adulamita, a fim de reaver da mulher sua garantia, mas ele não a encontrou,
20
Meanwhile Judah sent the young goat by his friend the Adullamite in order to get his pledge back from the woman, but he did not find her.
21 e perguntou aos homens do lugar: “Onde está a prostituta cultual que costuma ficar à beira do caminho de Enaim?”Eles responderam: “Aqui não há nenhuma prostituta cultual”.
21
He asked the men who lived there, “Where is the shrine prostitute who was beside the road at Enaim?” “There hasn’t been any shrine prostitute here,” they said.
22 Assim ele voltou a Judá e disse: “Não a encontrei. Além disso, os homens do lugar disseram que lá não há nenhuma prostituta cultual”.
22
So he went back to Judah and said, “I didn’t find her. Besides, the men who lived there said, ‘There hasn’t been any shrine prostitute here.’ ”
23 Disse Judá: “Fique ela com o que lhe dei. Não quero que nos tornemos objeto de zombaria. Afinal de contas, mandei a ela este cabritinho, mas você não a encontrou”.
23
Then Judah said, “Let her keep what she has, or we will become a laughingstock. After all, I did send her this young goat, but you didn’t find her.”
24 Cerca de três meses mais tarde, disseram a Judá: “Sua nora Tamar prostituiu-se, e na sua prostituição ficou grávida”.Disse Judá: “Tragam-na para fora e queimem-na viva!”
24
About three months later Judah was told, “Your daughter-in-law Tamar is guilty of prostitution, and as a result she is now pregnant.” Judah said, “Bring her out and have her burned to death!”
25 Quando ela estava sendo levada para fora, mandou o seguinte recado ao sogro: “Estou grávida do homem que é dono destas coisas”. E acrescentou: “Veja se o senhor reconhece a quem pertencem este selo, este cordão e este cajado”.
25
As she was being brought out, she sent a message to her father-in-law. “I am pregnant by the man who owns these,” she said. And she added, “See if you recognize whose seal and cord and staff these are.”
26 Judá os reconheceu e disse: “Ela é mais justa do que eu, pois eu devia tê-la entregue a meu filho Selá”. E não voltou a ter relações com ela.
26
Judah recognized them and said, “She is more righteous than I, since I wouldn’t give her to my son Shelah.” And he did not sleep with her again.
27 Quando lhe chegou a época de dar à luz, havia gêmeos em seu ventre.
27
When the time came for her to give birth, there were twin boys in her womb.
28 Enquanto ela dava à luz, um deles pôs a mão para fora; então a parteira pegou um fio vermelho e amarrou o pulso do menino, dizendo: “Este saiu primeiro”.
28
As she was giving birth, one of them put out his hand; so the midwife took a scarlet thread and tied it on his wrist and said, “This one came out first.”
29 Mas, quando ele recolheu a mão, seu irmão saiu, e ela disse: “Então você conseguiu uma brecha para sair!” E deu-lhe o nome de Perez.
29
But when he drew back his hand, his brother came out, and she said, “So this is how you have broken out!” And he was named Perez.
30 Depois saiu seu irmão que estava com o fio vermelho no pulso, e foi-lhe dado o nome de Zerá.
30
Then his brother, who had the scarlet thread on his wrist, came out. And he was named Zerah.
