Almeida Atualizada (Portuguese) AA
New International Version NIV
1 Donde vêm as guerras e contendas entre vós? Porventura não vêm disto, dos vossos deleites, que nos vossos membros guerreiam?
1
What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you?
2 Cobiçais e nada tendes; logo matais. Invejais, e não podeis alcançar; logo combateis e fazeis guerras. Nada tendes, porque não pedis.
2
You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God.
3 Pedis e não recebeis, porque pedis mal, para o gastardes em vossos deleites.
3
When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.
