1And Saul, as yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
1Saulo, porém, ainda respirava ameaças e morte contra os discípulos do Senhor. Ele se apresentou ao sumo sacerdote
2And asked of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues: that if he found any men and women of this way, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
2e pediu-lhe cartas para as sinagogas de Damasco, para que, se encontrasse alguns que fossem do Caminho, quer homens quer mulheres, pudesse levá-los presos para Jerusalém.
3And as he went on his journey, it came to pass that he drew nigh to Damascus; and suddenly a light from heaven shined round about him.
3Em sua viagem, quando se aproximava de Damasco, de repente uma luz do céu brilhou ao seu redor.
4And falling on the ground, he heard a voice saying to him: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
4Ele caiu por terra e ouviu uma voz que lhe dizia: “Saulo, Saulo, por que você me persegue?”
5Who said: Who art thou, Lord? And he: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. It is hard for thee to kick against the goad.
5Ele perguntou: “Quem és tu, Senhor?” O Senhor disse: “Eu sou Jesus, a quem você persegue.
6And he trembling and astonished, said: Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?
6Mas levante-se e entre na cidade, e lhe será dito o que você deve fazer.”
7And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the city, and there it shall be told thee what thou must do. Now the men who went in company with him, stood amazed, hearing indeed a voice, but seeing no man.
7Os homens que viajavam com ele pararam emudecidos, ouvindo o som, mas não vendo ninguém.
8And Saul arose from the ground; and when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. But they leading him by the hands, brought him to Damascus.
8Saulo levantou-se do chão e, abrindo os olhos, não via ninguém. Então o conduziram pela mão até Damasco.
9And he was there three days, without sight, and he did neither eat nor drink.
9Ele ficou sem ver por três dias, e não comeu nem bebeu.
10Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias. And the Lord said to him in a vision: Ananias. And he said: Behold I am here, Lord.
10Havia em Damasco um certo discípulo chamado Ananias. O Senhor lhe disse em uma visão: “Ananias!” Ele respondeu: “Aqui estou, Senhor.”
11And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the street that is called Stait, and seek in the house of Judas, one named Saul of Tarsus. For behold he prayeth.
11O Senhor lhe disse: “Levante-se e vá à rua chamada Direita, e pergunte na casa de Judá por um homem chamado Saulo, de Tarso. Pois ele está orando,
12(And he saw a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hands upon him, that he might receive his sight.)
12e em uma visão ele viu um homem chamado Ananias entrar e impor-lhe as mãos, para que recuperasse a visão.”
13But Ananias answered: Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints in Jerusalem.
13Mas Ananias respondeu: “Senhor, tenho ouvido de muitos a respeito desse homem, de quanto mal ele fez aos teus santos em Jerusalém.
14And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that invoke thy name.
14E aqui ele tem autoridade dos principais sacerdotes para prender todos os que invocam o teu nome.”
15And the Lord said to him: Go thy way; for this man is to me a vessel of election, to carry my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel.
15Mas o Senhor lhe disse: “Vá, pois ele é para mim um instrumento escolhido para levar o meu nome às nações, aos reis e aos filhos de Israel.
16For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name’s sake.
16Pois eu lhe mostrarei quantas coisas ele deve sofrer por causa do meu nome.”
17And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house. And laying his hands upon him, he said: Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus hath sent me, he that appeared to thee in the way as thou camest; that thou mayest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
17Ananias partiu e entrou na casa. Impondo-lhe as mãos, disse: “Irmão Saulo, o Senhor, que lhe apareceu no caminho por onde você vinha, enviou-me para que você recupere a visão e seja cheio do Espírito Santo.”
18And immediately there fell from his eyes as it were scales, and he received his sight; and rising up, he was baptized.
18Imediatamente caiu dos seus olhos algo como escamas, e ele recuperou a visão. Ele se levantou e foi batizado.
19And when he had taken meat, he was strengthened. And he was with the disciples that were at Damascus, for some days.
19Ele tomou alimento e se fortaleceu. Saulo passou vários dias com os discípulos que estavam em Damasco.
20And immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
20Imediatamente, nas sinagogas, ele proclamava o Cristo, que ele é o Filho de Deus.
21And all that heard him, were astonished, and said: Is not this he who persecuted in Jerusalem those that called upon this name: and came hither for that intent, that he might carry them bound to the chief priests?
21Todos os que o ouviam ficavam maravilhados e diziam: “Não é este o homem que, em Jerusalém, perseguia os que invocavam esse nome? E ele não tinha vindo aqui com a intenção de levá-los presos aos principais sacerdotes?”
22But Saul increased much more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, affirming that this is the Christ.
22Mas Saulo se fortalecia cada vez mais, e confundia os judeus que viviam em Damasco, provando que este é o Cristo.
23And when many days were passed, the Jews consulted together to kill him.
23Quando se passaram muitos dias, os judeus conspiraram juntos para matá-lo,
24But their laying in wait was made known to Saul. And they watched the gates also day and night, that they might kill him.
24mas Saulo ficou sabendo do plano deles. Eles vigiavam os portões de dia e de noite para que pudessem matá-lo,
25But the disciples taking him in the night, conveyed him away by the wall, letting him down in a basket.
25mas os seus discípulos o pegaram de noite e o desceram pelo muro, baixando-o em um cesto.
26And when he was come into Jerusalem, he essayed to join himself to the disciples; and they all were afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
26Quando Saulo chegou a Jerusalém, ele tentou juntar-se aos discípulos; mas todos tinham medo dele, não acreditando que fosse um discípulo.
27But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and told them how he had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken to him; and how in Damascus he had dealt confidently in the name of Jesus.
27Mas Barnabé o acolheu, levou-o aos apóstolos e lhes declarou como ele tinha visto o Senhor no caminho, e que este lhe havia falado, e como em Damasco ele havia pregado ousadamente em nome de Jesus.
28And he was with them coming in and going out in Jerusalem, and dealing confidently in the name of the Lord.
28Ele ficou com eles, entrando em Jerusalém,
29He spoke also to the Gentiles, and disputed with the Greeks; but they sought to kill him.
29pregando ousadamente em nome do Senhor Jesus. Ele falava e discutia com os helenistas, mas eles procuravam matá-lo.
30Which when the brethren had known, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him away to Tarsus.
30Quando os irmãos souberam disso, levaram-no para Cesareia e o enviaram para Tarso.
31Now the church had peace throughout all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria; and was edified, walking in the fear of the Lord, and was filled with the consolation of the Holy Ghost.
31Assim, as igrejas em toda a Judeia, Galileia e Samaria tinham paz e eram edificadas. Elas se multiplicavam, andando no temor do Senhor e no consolo do Espírito Santo.
32And it came to pass that Peter, as he passed through, visiting all, came to the saints who dwelt at Lydda.
32Enquanto Pedro passava por todas aquelas regiões, ele desceu também aos santos que viviam em Lida.
33And he found there a certain man named Eneas, who had kept his bed for eight years, who was ill of the palsy.
33Lá ele encontrou um certo homem chamado Eneias, que estava acamado havia oito anos, porque era paralítico.
34And Peter said to him: Eneas, the Lord Jesus Christ healeth thee: arise, and make thy bed. And immediately he arose.
34Pedro lhe disse: “Eneias, Jesus Cristo o cura. Levante-se e arrume a sua cama!” Imediatamente ele se levantou.
35And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron, saw him: who were converted to the Lord.
35Todos os que viviam em Lida e Sarona o viram e se converteram ao Senhor.
36And in Joppe there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.
36Havia em Jope uma certa discípula chamada Tabita, nome que, traduzido, significa Dorcas. Esta mulher era cheia de boas obras e atos de misericórdia que ela fazia.
37And it came to pass in those days that she was sick, and died. Whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.
37Naqueles dias, ela ficou doente e morreu. Depois de lavá-la, eles a colocaram em um quarto no andar superior.
38And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppe, the disciples hearing that Peter was there, sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not be slack to come unto them.
38Como Lida era perto de Jope, os discípulos, ouvindo que Pedro estava lá, enviaram-lhe dois homens, implorando-lhe que não demorasse em ir até eles.
39And Peter rising up, went with them. And when he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber. And all the widows stood about him weeping, and shewing him the coats and garments which Dorcas made them.
39Pedro levantou-se e foi com eles. Quando ele chegou, levaram-no ao quarto no andar superior. Todas as viúvas ficaram ao redor dele, chorando e mostrando as túnicas e outras roupas que Dorcas havia feito enquanto estava com elas.
40And they all being put forth, Peter kneeling down prayed, and turning to the body, he said: Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes; and seeing Peter, she sat up.
40Pedro mandou que todos saíssem, ajoelhou-se e orou. Voltando-se para o corpo, disse: “Tabita, levante-se!” Ela abriu os olhos e, quando viu Pedro, sentou-se.
41And giving her his hand, he lifted her up. And when he had called the saints and the widows, he presented her alive.
41Ele lhe deu a mão e a levantou. Chamando os santos e as viúvas, ele a apresentou viva.
42And it was made known throughout all Joppe; and many believed in the Lord.
42Isso se tornou conhecido em toda a Jope, e muitos creram no Senhor.
43And it came to pass, that he abode many days in Joppe, with one Simon a tanner.
43Ele ficou muitos dias em Jope com um curtidor chamado Simão.
