Almeida Atualizada (Portuguese) AA
New International Version NIV
1 Ora, chegavam-se a ele todos os publicanos e pecadores para o ouvir.
1
Now the tax collectors and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus.
2 E os fariseus e os escribas murmuravam, dizendo: Este recebe pecadores, e come com eles.
2
But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”
3 Então ele lhes propôs esta parábola:
3
Then Jesus told them this parable:
4 Qual de vós é o homem que, possuindo cem ovelhas, e perdendo uma delas, não deixa as noventa e nove no deserto, e não vai após a perdida até que a encontre?
4
“Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it?
5 E achando-a, põe-na sobre os ombros, cheio de júbilo;
5
And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders
6 e chegando a casa, reúne os amigos e vizinhos e lhes diz: Alegrai-vos comigo, porque achei a minha ovelha que se havia perdido.
6
and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’
7 Digo-vos que assim haverá maior alegria no céu por um pecador que se arrepende, do que por noventa e nove justos que não necessitam de arrependimento.
7
I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.
8 Ou qual é a mulher que, tendo dez dracmas e perdendo uma dracma, não acende a candeia, e não varre a casa, buscando com diligência até encontrá-la?
8
“Or suppose a woman has ten silver coinsand loses one. Doesn’t she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it?
9 E achando-a, reúne as amigas e vizinhas, dizendo: Alegrai-vos comigo, porque achei a dracma que eu havia perdido.
9
And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.’
10 Assim, digo-vos, há alegria na presença dos anjos de Deus por um só pecador que se arrepende.
10
In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”
11 Disse-lhe mais: Certo homem tinha dois filhos.
11
Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons.
12 O mais moço deles disse ao pai: Pai, dá-me a parte dos bens que me toca. Repartiu-lhes, pois, os seus haveres.
12
The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.
13 Poucos dias depois, o filho mais moço ajuntando tudo, partiu para um país distante, e ali desperdiçou os seus bens, vivendo dissolutamente.
13
“Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living.
14 E, havendo ele dissipado tudo, houve naquela terra uma grande fome, e começou a passar necessidades.
14
After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need.
15 Então foi encontrar-se a um dos cidadãos daquele país, o qual o mandou para os seus campos a apascentar porcos.
15
So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs.
16 E desejava encher o estômago com as alfarrobas que os porcos comiam; e ninguém lhe dava nada.
16
He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.
17 Caindo, porém, em si, disse: Quantos empregados de meu pai têm abundância de pão, e eu aqui pereço de fome!
17
“When he came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have food to spare, and here I am starving to death!
18 Levantar-me-ei, irei ter com meu pai e dir-lhe-ei: Pai, pequei contra o céu e diante de ti;
18
I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.
19 já não sou digno de ser chamado teu filho; trata-me como um dos teus empregados.
19
I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.’
20 Levantou-se, pois, e foi para seu pai. Estando ele ainda longe, seu pai o viu, encheu-se de compaixão e, correndo, lançou-se-lhe ao pescoço e o beijou.
20
So he got up and went to his father. “But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.
21 Disse-lhe o filho: Pai, pequei conta o céu e diante de ti; já não sou digno de ser chamado teu filho.
21
“The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
22 Mas o pai disse aos seus servos: Trazei depressa a melhor roupa, e vesti-lha, e ponde-lhe um anel no dedo e alparcas nos pés;
22
“But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.
23 trazei também o bezerro, cevado e matai-o; comamos, e regozijemo-nos,
23
Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate.
24 porque este meu filho estava morto, e reviveu; tinha-se perdido, e foi achado. E começaram a regozijar-se.
24
For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ So they began to celebrate.
25 Ora, o seu filho mais velho estava no campo; e quando voltava, ao aproximar-se de casa, ouviu a música e as danças;
25
“Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing.
26 e chegando um dos servos, perguntou-lhe que era aquilo.
26
So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on.
27 Respondeu-lhe este: Chegou teu irmão; e teu pai matou o bezerro cevado, porque o recebeu são e salvo.
27
‘Your brother has come,’ he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’
28 Mas ele se indignou e não queria entrar. Saiu então o pai e instava com ele.
28
“The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him.
29 Ele, porém, respondeu ao pai: Eis que há tantos anos te sirvo, e nunca transgredi um mandamento teu; contudo nunca me deste um cabrito para eu me regozijar com os meus amigos;
29
But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends.
30 vindo, porém, este teu filho, que desperdiçou os teus bens com as meretrizes, mataste-lhe o bezerro cevado.
30
But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!’
31 Replicou-lhe o pai: Filho, tu sempre estás comigo, e tudo o que é meu é teu;
31
“ ‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours.
32 era justo, porém, regozijarmo-nos e alegramo-nos, porque este teu irmão estava morto, e reviveu; tinha-se perdido, e foi achado.
32
But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ ”
