Chapter 24

Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.

Mas já no primeiro dia da semana, bem de madrugada, foram elas ao sepulcro, levando as especiarias que tinham preparado.   

And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.

E acharam a pedra revolvida do sepulcro.   

And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

Entrando, porém, não acharam o corpo do Senhor Jesus.   

And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

E, estando elas perplexas a esse respeito, eis que lhes apareceram dois varões em vestes resplandecentes;   

And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

e ficando elas atemorizadas e abaixando o rosto para o chão, eles lhes disseram: Por que buscais entre os mortos aquele que vive?   

He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

Ele não está aqui, mas ressurgiu. Lembrai-vos de como vos falou, estando ainda na Galiléia.   

Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

dizendo: Importa que o Filho do homem seja entregue nas mãos de homens pecadores, e seja crucificado, e ao terceiro dia ressurja.   

And they remembered his words,

Lembraram-se, então, das suas palavras;   

And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.

e, voltando do sepulcro, anunciaram todas estas coisas aos onze e a todos os demais.   

It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.

E eram Maria Madalena, e Joana, e Maria, mãe de Tiago; também as outras que estavam com elas relataram estas coisas aos apóstolos.   

And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.

E pareceram-lhes como um delírio as palavras das mulheres e não lhes deram crédito.   

Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.

Mas Pedro, levantando-se, correu ao sepulcro; e, abaixando-se, viu somente os panos de linho; e retirou-se, admirando consigo o que havia acontecido.   

And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.

Nesse mesmo dia, iam dois deles para uma aldeia chamada Emaús, que distava de Jerusalém sessenta estádios;   

And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

e iam comentando entre si tudo aquilo que havia sucedido.   

And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.

Enquanto assim comentavam e discutiam, o próprio Jesus se aproximou, e ia com eles;   

But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.

mas os olhos deles estavam como que fechados, de sorte que não o reconheceram.   

And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?

Então ele lhes perguntou: Que palavras são essas que, caminhando, trocais entre vós? Eles então pararam tristes.   

And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?

E um deles, chamado Cleopas, respondeu-lhe: És tu o único peregrino em Jerusalém que não soube das coisas que nela têm sucedido nestes dias?   

And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:

Ao que ele lhes perguntou: Quais? Disseram-lhe: As que dizem respeito a Jesus, o nazareno, que foi profeta, poderoso em obras e palavras diante de Deus e de todo o povo.   

And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.

e como os principais sacerdotes e as nossas autoridades e entregaram para ser condenado à morte, e o crucificaram.   

But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.

Ora, nós esperávamos que fosse ele quem havia de remir Israel; e, além de tudo isso, é já hoje o terceiro dia desde que essas coisas aconteceram.   

Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;

Verdade é, também, que algumas mulheres do nosso meio nos encheram de espanto; pois foram de madrugada ao sepulcro   

And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.

e, não achando o corpo dele voltaram, declarando que tinham tido uma visão de anjos que diziam estar ele vivo.   

And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.

Além disso, alguns dos que estavam conosco foram ao sepulcro, e acharam ser assim como as mulheres haviam dito; a ele, porém, não o viram.   

Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:

Então ele lhes disse: Ó néscios, e tardos de coração para crerdes tudo o que os profetas disseram!   

Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?

Porventura não importa que o Cristo padecesse essas coisas e entrasse na sua glória?   

And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

E, começando por Moisés, e por todos os profetas, explicou-lhes o que dele se achava em todas as Escrituras.   

And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.

Quando se aproximaram da aldeia para onde iam, ele fez como quem ia para mais longe.   

But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.

Eles, porém, o constrangeram, dizendo: Fica conosco; porque é tarde, e já declinou o dia. E entrou para ficar com eles.   

And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.

Estando com eles à mesa, tomou o pão e o abençoou; e, partindo-o, lho dava.   

And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

Abriram-se-lhes então os olhos, e o reconheceram; nisto ele desapareceu de diante deles.   

And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?

E disseram um para o outro: Porventura não se nos abrasava o coração, quando pelo caminho nos falava, e quando nos abria as Escrituras?   

And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,

E na mesma hora levantaram-se e voltaram para Jerusalém, e encontraram reunidos os onze e os que estavam com eles,   

Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.

os quais diziam: Realmente o Senhor ressurgiu, e apareceu a Simão.   

And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.

Então os dois contaram o que acontecera no caminho, e como se lhes fizera conhecer no partir do pão.   

And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

Enquanto ainda falavam nisso, o próprio Jesus se apresentou no meio deles, e disse-lhes: Paz seja convosco.   

But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.

Mas eles, espantados e atemorizados, pensavam que viam algum espírito.   

And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?

Ele, porém, lhes disse: Por que estais perturbados? e por que surgem dúvidas em vossos corações?   

Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

Olhai as minhas mãos e os meus pés, que sou eu mesmo; apalpai-me e vede; porque um espírito não tem carne nem ossos, como percebeis que eu tenho.   

And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.

E, dizendo isso, mostrou-lhes as mãos e os pés.   

And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?

Não acreditando eles ainda por causa da alegria, e estando admirados, perguntou-lhes Jesus: Tendes aqui alguma coisa que comer?   

And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.

Então lhe deram um pedaço de peixe assado,   

And he took it, and did eat before them.

o qual ele tomou e comeu diante deles.   

And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

Depois lhe disse: São estas as palavras que vos falei, estando ainda convosco, que importava que se cumprisse tudo o que de mim estava escrito na Lei de Moisés, nos Profetas e nos Salmos.   

Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,

Então lhes abriu o entendimento para compreenderem as Escrituras;   

And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

e disse-lhes: Assim está escrito que o Cristo padecesse, e ao terceiro dia ressurgisse dentre os mortos;   

And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

e que em seu nome se pregasse o arrependimento para remissão dos pecados, a todas as nações, começando por Jerusalém.   

And ye are witnesses of these things.

Vós sois testemunhas destas coisas.   

And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

E eis que sobre vós envio a promessa de meu Pai; ficai porém, na cidade, até que do alto sejais revestidos de poder.   

And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.

Então os levou fora, até Betânia; e levantando as mãos, os abençoou.   

And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

E aconteceu que, enquanto os abençoava, apartou-se deles; e foi elevado ao céu.   

And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

E, depois de o adorarem, voltaram com grande júbilo para Jerusalém;   

And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.

e estavam continuamente no templo, bendizendo a Deus.
