Acts 18
|
| Depois disto Paulo partiu para Atenas e chegou a Corinto. | After these things he departed from Athens, and came to Corinth. |
| E encontrando um judeu por nome Áqüila, natural do Ponto, que pouco antes viera da Itália, e Priscila, sua mulher , foi ter com eles, | And he found a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by race, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome: and he came unto them; |
| e, por ser do mesmo ofício, com eles morava, e juntos trabalhavam; pois eram, por ofício, fabricantes de tendas. | and because he was of the same trade, he abode with them, and they wrought, for by their trade they were tentmakers. |
| Ele discutia todos os sábados na sinagoga, e persuadia a judeus e gregos. | And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks. |
| Quando Silas e Timóteo desceram da Macedônia, Paulo dedicou- se inteiramente à palavra, testificando aos judeus que Jesus era o Cristo. | But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was constrained by the word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ. |
| Como estes, porém, se opusessem e proferissem injúrias, sacudiu ele as vestes e disse-lhes: O vosso sangue seja sobre a vossa cabeça; eu estou limpo, e desde agora vou para os gentios. | And when they opposed themselves and blasphemed, he shook out his raiment and said unto them, Your blood [be] upon your own heads; I am clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles. |
| E saindo dali, entrou em casa de um homem temente a Deus, chamado Tito Justo, cuja casa ficava junto da sinagoga. | And he departed thence, and went into the house of a certain man named Titus Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue. |
| Crispo, chefe da sinagoga, creu no Senhor com toda a sua casa; e muitos dos coríntios, ouvindo, criam e eram batizados. | And Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized. |
| E de noite disse o Senhor em visão a Paulo: Não temas, mas fala e não te cales; | And the Lord said unto Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak and hold not thy peace: |
| porque eu estou contigo e ninguém te acometerá para te fazer mal, pois tenho muito povo nesta cidade. | for I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to harm thee: for I have much people in this city. |
| E ficou ali um ano e seis meses, ensinando entre eles a palavra de Deus. | And he dwelt [there] a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them. |
| Sendo Gálio procônsul da Acaia, levantaram-se os judeus de comum acordo contra Paulo, e o levaram ao tribunal, | But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment-seat, |
| dizendo: Este persuade os homens a render culto a Deus de um modo contrário à lei. | saying, This man persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law. |
| E, quando Paulo estava para abrir a boca, disse Gálio aos judeus: Se de fato houvesse, ó judeus, algum agravo ou crime perverso, com razão eu vos sofreria; | But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked villany, O ye Jews, reason would that I should bear with you: |
| mas, se são questões de palavras, de nomes, e da vossa lei, disso cuidai vós mesmos; porque eu não quero ser juiz destas coisas. | but if they are questions about words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves; I am not minded to be a judge of these matters. |
| E expulsou-os do tribunal. | And he drove them from the judgment-seat. |
| Então todos agarraram Sóstenes, chefe da sinagoga, e o espancavam diante do tribunal; e Gálio não se importava com nenhuma dessas coisas. | And they all laid hold on Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment-seat. And Gallio cared for none of these things. |
| Paulo, tendo ficado ali ainda muitos dias, despediu-se dos irmãos e navegou para a Síria, e com ele Priscila e Áqüila, havendo rapado a cabeça em Cencréia, porque tinha voto. | And Paul, having tarried after this yet many days, took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence for Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila: having shorn his head in Cenchreae; for he had a vow. |
| E eles chegaram a Éfeso, onde Paulo os deixou; e tendo entrado na sinagoga, discutia com os judeus. | And they came to Ephesus, and he left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews. |
| Estes rogavam que ficasse por mais algum tempo, mas ele não anuiu, | And when they asked him to abide a longer time, he consented not; |
| antes se despediu deles, dizendo: Se Deus quiser, de novo voltarei a vós; e navegou de Éfeso. | but taking his leave of them, and saying, I will return again unto you if God will, he set sail from Ephesus. |
| Tendo chegado a Cesaréia, subiu a Jerusalém e saudou a igreja, e desceu a Antioquia. | And when he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and saluted the church, and went down to Antioch. |
| E, tendo demorado ali algum tempo, partiu, passando sucessivamente pela região da Galácia e da Frígia, fortalecendo a todos os discípulos. | And having spent some time [there], he departed, and went through the region of Galatia, and Phrygia, in order, establishing all the disciples. |
| Ora, chegou a Éfeso certo judeu chamado Apolo, natural de Alexandria, homem eloqüente e poderoso nas Escrituras. | Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by race, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus; and he was mighty in the scriptures. |
| Era ele instruído no caminho do Senhor e, sendo fervoroso de espírito, falava e ensinava com precisão as coisas concernentes a Jesus, conhecendo entretanto somente o batismo de João. | This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spake and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, knowing only the baptism of John: |
| Ele começou a falar ousadamente na sinagoga: mas quando Priscila e Áqüila o ouviram, levaram-no consigo e lhe expuseram com mais precisão o caminho de Deus. | and he began to speak boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more accurately. |
| Querendo ele passar à Acáia, os irmãos o animaram e escreveram aos discípulos que o recebessem; e tendo ele chegado, auxiliou muito aos que pela graça haviam crido. | And when he was minded to pass over into Achaia, the brethren encouraged him, and wrote to the disciples to receive him: and when he was come, he helped them much that had believed through grace; |
| Pois com grande poder refutava publicamente os judeus, demonstrando pelas escrituras que Jesus era o Cristo. | for he powerfully confuted the Jews, [and that] publicly, showing by the scriptures that Jesus was the Christ. |
