1And he came to Derbe and Lystra. And behold, there was a certain disciple there named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman that believed; but his father was a Gentile.
1Ele chegou a Derbe e a Listra; e eis que estava ali certo discípulo chamado Timóteo, filho de uma judia crente, mas seu pai era grego.
2To this man the brethren that were in Lystra and Iconium, gave a good testimony.
2Os irmãos que estavam em Listra e Icônio davam bom testemunho dele.
3Him Paul would have to go along with him: and taking him he circumcised him, because of the Jews who were in those places. For they all knew that his father was a Gentile.
3Paulo queria que ele fosse com ele, e tomou-o e o circuncidou por causa dos judeus que estavam naquelas regiões, pois todos sabiam que seu pai era grego.
4And as they passed through the cities, they delivered unto them the decrees for to keep, that were decreed by the apostles and ancients who were at Jerusalem.
4Ao passarem pelas cidades, entregavam-lhes os decretos para serem guardados, os quais haviam sido ordenados pelos apóstolos e presbíteros que estavam em Jerusalém.
5And the churches were confirmed in faith, and increased in number daily.
5Assim, as igrejas eram fortalecidas na fé, e cresciam em número diariamente.
6And when they had passed through Phrygia, and the country of Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia.
6Tendo passado pela região da Frígia e da Galácia, o Espírito Santo os impediu de anunciar a palavra na Ásia.
7And when they were come into Mysia, they attempted to go into Bythynia, and the Spirit of Jesus suffered them not.
7Quando chegaram perto da Mísia, tentaram ir para a Bitínia, mas o Espírito não lhes permitiu.
8And when they had passed through Mysia, they went down to Troas.
8Passando pela Mísia, desceram a Trôade.
9And a vision was shewed to Paul in the night, which was a man of Macedonia standing and beseeching him, and saying: Pass over into Macedonia, and help us.
9Uma visão apareceu a Paulo durante a noite. Havia um homem da Macedônia em pé, rogando-lhe e dizendo: “Passa à Macedônia e ajuda-nos.”
10And as soon as he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go into Macedonia, being assured that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.
10Quando ele teve a visão, imediatamente procuramos partir para a Macedônia, concluindo que o Senhor nos havia chamado para lhes pregar o Evangelho.
11And sailing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the day following to Neapolis;
11Navegando, portanto, de Trôade, fizemos uma rota direta para Samotrácia, e no dia seguinte para Neápolis;
12And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were in this city some days conferring together.
12e dali para Filipos, que é a cidade principal daquele distrito da Macedônia, e uma colônia romana. Ficamos alguns dias nesta cidade.
13And upon the sabbath day, we went forth without the gate by a river side, where it seemed that there was prayer; and sitting down, we spoke to the women that were assembled.
13No dia de sábado, saímos da cidade para a beira de um rio, onde supúnhamos haver um lugar de oração; e, assentando-nos, falamos às mulheres que haviam se reunido.
14And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one that worshipped God, did hear: whose heart the Lord opened to attend to those things which were said by Paul.
14Certa mulher chamada Lídia, vendedora de púrpura, da cidade de Tiatira, que adorava a Deus, nos ouvia. O Senhor abriu o seu coração para dar atenção às coisas que eram ditas por Paulo.
15And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying: If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained us.
15Quando ela e a sua casa foram batizadas, ela nos pediu: “Se vocês me consideram fiel ao Senhor, venham ficar em minha casa.” E ela nos persuadiu.
16And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain girl, having a pythonical spirit, met us, who brought to her masters much gain by divining.
16Certo dia, quando íamos para o lugar de oração, nos encontrou certa jovem que tinha um espírito de adivinhação, a qual trazia muito lucro aos seus senhores com adivinhações.
17This same following Paul and us, cried out, saying: These men are the servants of the most high God, who preach unto you the way of salvation.
17Ela seguia Paulo e a nós, gritando: “Estes homens são servos do Deus Altíssimo, que nos proclamam um caminho de salvação!”
18And this she did many days. But Paul being grieved, turned, and said to the spirit: I command thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to go out from her. And he went out the same hour.
18Ela fez isso por muitos dias. Mas Paulo, ficando muito incomodado, voltou-se e disse ao espírito: “Eu te ordeno em nome de Jesus Cristo que saias dela!” E na mesma hora ele saiu.
19But her masters, seeing that the hope of their gain was gone, apprehending Paul and Silas, brought them into the marketplace to the rulers.
19Mas, quando os seus senhores viram que a esperança do seu lucro havia desaparecido, agarraram Paulo e Silas e os arrastaram para a praça principal, perante as autoridades.
20And presenting them to the magistrates, they said: These men disturb our city, being Jews;
20Quando os apresentaram aos magistrados, disseram: “Estes homens, sendo judeus, estão agitando a nossa cidade
21And preach a fashion which it is not lawful for us to receive nor observe, being Romans.
21e defendem costumes que não nos é lícito aceitar nem praticar, sendo nós romanos.”
22And the people ran together against them; and the magistrates rending off their clothes, commanded them to be beaten with rods.
22A multidão se levantou contra eles, e os magistrados rasgaram-lhes as roupas, e ordenaram que fossem açoitados com varas.
23And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the gaoler to keep them diligently.
23Depois de lhes darem muitos açoites, lançaram-nos na prisão, ordenando ao carcereiro que os guardasse com segurança.
24Who having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.
24Tendo recebido tal ordem, ele os lançou no cárcere interior e prendeu os pés deles no tronco.
25And at midnight, Paul and Silas praying, praised God. And they that were in prison, heard them.
25Mas, por volta da meia-noite, Paulo e Silas oravam e cantavam hinos a Deus, e os prisioneiros os escutavam.
26And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. And immediately all the doors were opened, and the bands of all were loosed.
26De repente, houve um grande terremoto, de modo que os alicerces da prisão foram abalados; e imediatamente todas as portas se abriram, e as correntes de todos se soltaram.
27And the keeper of the prison, awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the doors of the prison open, drawing his sword, would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.
27O carcereiro, despertando do sono e vendo abertas as portas da prisão, puxou a sua espada e estava para se matar, supondo que os prisioneiros tivessem fugido.
28But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying: Do thyself no harm, for we all are here.
28Mas Paulo gritou em alta voz: “Não faça mal a si mesmo, pois estamos todos aqui!”
29Then calling for a light, he went in, and trembling, fell down at the feet of Paul and Silas.
29Ele pediu luzes, saltou para dentro e, tremendo, prostrou-se diante de Paulo e Silas;
30And bringing them out, he said: Masters, what must I do, that I may be saved?
30e, tirando-os para fora, disse: “Senhores, o que devo fazer para ser salvo?”
31But they said: Believe in the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
31Eles disseram: “Creia no Senhor Jesus Cristo, e você será salvo, você e a sua casa.”
32And they preached the word of the Lord to him and to all that were in his house.
32E pregaram a palavra do Senhor a ele e a todos os que estavam em sua casa.
33And he, taking them the same hour of the night, washed their stripes, and himself was baptized, and all his house immediately.
33Ele os tomou consigo naquela mesma hora da noite e lavou os seus ferimentos; e logo foi batizado, ele e todos os seus.
34And when he had brought them into his own house, he laid the table for them, and rejoiced with all his house, believing God.
34Levando-os para a sua casa, pôs comida diante deles e alegrou-se muito com toda a sua casa, por ter crido em Deus.
35And when the day was come, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.
35Mas, quando amanheceu, os magistrados enviaram os oficiais de justiça, dizendo: “Soltai aqueles homens.”
36And the keeper of the prison told these words to Paul: The magistrates have sent to let you go; now therefore depart, and go in peace.
36O carcereiro relatou estas palavras a Paulo, dizendo: “Os magistrados mandaram soltá-los; agora, portanto, saiam e vão em paz.”
37But Paul said to them: They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men that are Romans, and have cast us into prison: and now do they thrust us out privately? Not so; but let them come,
37Mas Paulo lhes disse: “Açoitaram-nos publicamente sem condenação, sendo nós cidadãos romanos, e nos lançaram na prisão! E agora nos soltam secretamente? Não, de modo nenhum! Que eles mesmos venham e nos tirem daqui!”
38And let us out themselves. And the serjeants told these words to the magistrates. And they were afraid, hearing that they were Romans.
38Os oficiais de justiça relataram estas palavras aos magistrados, e eles ficaram com medo quando ouviram que eram romanos;
39And coming, they besought them; and bringing them out, they desired them to depart out of the city.
39e vieram e lhes suplicaram. Depois de os tirarem para fora, pediram-lhes que se retirassem da cidade.
40And they went out of the prison, and entered into the house of Lydia; and having seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
40Eles saíram da prisão e entraram na casa de Lídia. Quando viram os irmãos, os encorajaram, e então partiram.
