¹He called the twelve TR reads “his twelve disciples” instead of “the twelve” together, and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.

¹Reunindo os doze, deu-lhes poder e autoridade sobre todos os demônios, e para curarem doenças;

²He sent them forth to preach the Kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

²e enviou-os a pregar o reino de Deus, e fazer curas,

³He said to them, “Take nothing for your journey—neither staffs, nor wallet, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats apiece.

³dizendo-lhes: Nada leveis para o caminho, nem bordão, nem alforje, nem pão, nem dinheiro; nem tenhais duas túnicas.

⁴ Into whatever house you enter, stay there, and depart from there.

⁴Em qualquer casa em que entrardes, nela ficai, e dali partireis.

⁵ As many as don’t receive you, when you depart from that city, shake off even the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.”

⁵Mas, onde quer que não vos receberem, saindo daquela cidade, sacudi o pó dos vossos pés, em testemunho contra eles.

⁶They departed, and went throughout the villages, preaching the Good News, and healing everywhere.

⁶Saindo, pois, os discípulos percorreram as aldeias, anunciando o evangelho e fazendo curas por toda parte.

⁷Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him; and he was very perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,

⁷Ora, o tetrarca Herodes soube de tudo o que se passava, e ficou muito perplexo, porque diziam uns: João ressuscitou dos mortos;

⁸and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.

⁸outros: Elias apareceu; e outros: Um dos antigos profetas se levantou.

⁹Herod said, “John I beheaded, but who is this, about whom I hear such things?” He sought to see him.

⁹Herodes, porém, disse: A João eu mandei degolar; quem é, pois, este a respeito de quem ouço tais coisas? E procurava vê-lo.

¹⁰The apostles, when they had returned, told him what things they had done. He took them, and withdrew apart to a deserted place of a city called Bethsaida.

¹⁰Quando os apóstolos voltaram, contaram-lhe tudo o que havia feito. E ele, levando-os consigo, retirou-se � parte para uma cidade chamada Betsaida.

¹¹But the multitudes, perceiving it, followed him. He welcomed them, and spoke to them of the Kingdom of God, and he cured those who needed healing.

¹¹Mas as multidões, percebendo isto, seguiram-no; e ele as recebeu, e falava-lhes do reino de Deus, e sarava os que necessitavam de cura.

¹²The day began to wear away; and the twelve came, and said to him, “Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and farms, and lodge, and get food, for we are here in a deserted place.”

¹²Ora, quando o dia começava a declinar, aproximando-se os doze, disseram-lhe: Despede a multidão, para que, indo �s aldeias e aos sítios em redor, se hospedem, e achem o que comer; porque aqui estamos em lugar deserto.

¹³But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.” They said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we should go and buy food for all these people.”

¹³Mas ele lhes disse: Dai-lhes vós de comer. Responderam eles: Não temos senão cinco pães e dois peixes; salvo se nós formos comprar comida para todo este povo.

¹⁴For they were about five thousand men. He said to his disciples, “Make them sit down in groups of about fifty each.”

¹⁴Pois eram cerca de cinco mil homens. Então disse a seus discípulos: Fazei-os reclinar-se em grupos de cerca de cinquenta cada um.

¹⁵They did so, and made them all sit down.

¹⁵Assim o fizeram, mandando que todos se reclinassem.

¹⁶He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to the sky, he blessed them, and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude.

¹⁶E tomando Jesus os cinco pães e os dois peixes, e olhando para o céu, os abençoou e partiu, e os entregava aos seus discípulos para os porem diante da multidão.

¹⁷They ate, and were all filled. They gathered up twelve baskets of broken pieces that were left over.

¹⁷Todos, pois, comeram e se fartaram; e foram levantados, do que lhes sobejou, doze cestos de pedaços.

¹⁸It happened, as he was praying alone, that the disciples were with him, and he asked them, “Who do the multitudes say that I am?”

¹⁸Enquanto ele estava orando � parte achavam-se com ele somente seus discípulos; e perguntou-lhes: Quem dizem as multidões que eu sou?

¹⁹They answered, “‘John the Baptizer,’ but others say, ‘Elijah,’ and others, that one of the old prophets is risen again.”

¹⁹Responderam eles: Uns dizem: João, o Batista; outros: Elias; e ainda outros, que um dos antigos profetas se levantou.

²⁰He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”

²⁰Então lhes perguntou: Mas vós, quem dizeis que eu sou? Respondendo Pedro, disse: O Cristo de Deus.

²¹But he warned them, and commanded them to tell this to no one,

²¹Jesus, porém, advertindo-os, mandou que não contassem isso a ninguém;

²²saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.”

²²e disse-lhes: É necessário que o Filho do homem padeça muitas coisas, que seja rejeitado pelos anciãos, pelos principais sacerdotes e escribas, que seja morto, e que ao terceiro dia ressuscite.

²³He said to all, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, TR, NU add “daily” and follow me.

²³Em seguida dizia a todos: Se alguém quer vir após mim, negue-se a si mesmo, tome cada dia a sua cruz, e siga-me.

²⁴ For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever will lose his life for my sake, the same will save it.

²⁴Pois quem quiser salvar a sua vida, perdê-la-á; mas quem perder a sua vida por amor de mim, esse a salvará.

²⁵ For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses or forfeits his own self?

²⁵Pois, que aproveita ao homem ganhar o mundo inteiro, e perder-se, ou prejudicar-se a si mesmo?

²⁶ For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed, when he comes in his glory, and the glory of the Father, and of the holy angels.

²⁶Porque, quem se envergonhar de mim e das minhas palavras, dele se envergonhará o Filho do homem, quando vier na sua glória, e na do Pai e dos santos anjos.

²⁷ But I tell you the truth: There are some of those who stand here, who will in no way taste of death, until they see the Kingdom of God.”

²⁷Mas em verdade vos digo: Alguns há, dos que estão aqui, que de modo nenhum provarão a morte até que vejam o reino de Deus.

²⁸It happened about eight days after these sayings, that he took with him Peter, John, and James, and went up onto the mountain to pray.

²⁸Cerca de oito dias depois de ter proferido essas palavras, tomou Jesus consigo a Pedro, a João e a Tiago, e subiu ao monte para orar.

²⁹As he was praying, the appearance of his face was altered, and his clothing became white and dazzling.

²⁹Enquanto ele orava, mudou-se a aparência do seu rosto, e a sua roupa tornou-se branca e resplandecente.

³⁰Behold, two men were talking with him, who were Moses and Elijah,

³⁰E eis que estavam falando com ele dois varões, que eram Moisés e Elias,

³¹who appeared in glory, and spoke of his departure, literally, “exodus” which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

³¹os quais apareceram com glória, e falavam da sua partida que estava para cumprir-se em Jerusalém.

³²Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they were fully awake, they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.

³²Ora, Pedro e os que estavam com ele se haviam deixado vencer pelo sono; despertando, porém, viram a sua glória e os dois varões que estavam com ele.

³³It happened, as they were parting from him, that Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let’s make three tents: one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah,” not knowing what he said.

³³E, quando estes se apartavam dele, disse Pedro a Jesus: Mestre, bom é estarmos nós aqui: façamos, pois, três cabanas, uma para ti, uma para Moisés, e uma para Elias, não sabendo o que dizia.

³⁴While he said these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered into the cloud.

³⁴Enquanto ele ainda falava, veio uma nuvem que os cobriu; e se atemorizaram ao entrarem na nuvem.

³⁵A voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him!”

³⁵E da nuvem saiu uma voz que dizia: Este é o meu Filho, o meu eleito; a ele ouvi.

³⁶When the voice came, Jesus was found alone. They were silent, and told no one in those days any of the things which they had seen.

³⁶Ao soar esta voz, Jesus foi achado sozinho; e eles calaram-se, e por aqueles dias não contaram a ninguém nada do que tinham visto.

³⁷It happened on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met him.

³⁷No dia seguinte, quando desceram do monte, veio-lhe ao encontro uma grande multidão.

³⁸Behold, a man from the crowd called out, saying, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child.

³⁸E eis que um homem dentre a multidão clamou, dizendo: Mestre, peço-te que olhes para meu filho, porque é o único que tenho;

³⁹Behold, a spirit takes him, he suddenly cries out, and it convulses him so that he foams, and it hardly departs from him, bruising him severely.

³⁹pois um espírito se apodera dele, fazendo-o gritar subitamente, convulsiona-o até escumar e, mesmo depois de o ter quebrantado, dificilmente o larga.

⁴⁰I begged your disciples to cast it out, and they couldn’t.”

⁴⁰E roguei aos teus discípulos que o expulsassem, mas não puderam.

⁴¹Jesus answered, “Faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here.”

⁴¹Respondeu Jesus: Ó geração incrédula e perversa! até quando estarei convosco e vos sofrerei? Traze-me cá o teu filho.

⁴²While he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him violently. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

⁴²Ainda quando ele vinha chegando, o demônio o derribou e o convulsionou; mas Jesus repreendeu o espírito imundo, curou o menino e o entregou a seu pai.

⁴³They were all astonished at the majesty of God. But while all were marveling at all the things which Jesus did, he said to his disciples,

⁴³E todos se maravilhavam da majestade de Deus. E admirando-se todos de tudo o que Jesus fazia, disse ele a seus discípulos:

⁴⁴ “Let these words sink into your ears, for the Son of Man will be delivered up into the hands of men.”

⁴⁴Ponde vós estas palavras em vossos ouvidos; pois o Filho do homem está para ser entregue nas mãos dos homens.

⁴⁵But they didn’t understand this saying. It was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.

⁴⁵Eles, porém, não entendiam essa palavra, cujo sentido lhes era encoberto para que não o compreendessem; e temiam interrogá-lo a esse respeito.

⁴⁶There arose an argument among them about which of them was the greatest.

⁴⁶E suscitou-se entre eles uma discussão sobre qual deles seria o maior.

⁴⁷Jesus, perceiving the reasoning of their hearts, took a little child, and set him by his side,

⁴⁷Mas Jesus, percebendo o pensamento de seus corações, tomou uma criança, pô-la junto de si,

⁴⁸and said to them, “Whoever receives this little child in my name receives me. Whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For whoever is least among you all, this one will be great.”

⁴⁸e disse-lhes: Qualquer que receber esta criança em meu nome, a mim me recebe; e qualquer que me receber a mim, recebe aquele que me enviou; pois aquele que entre vós todos é o menor, esse é grande.

⁴⁹John answered, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he doesn’t follow with us.”

⁴⁹Disse-lhe João: Mestre, vimos um homem que em teu nome expulsava demônios; e lho proibimos, porque não segue conosco.

⁵⁰Jesus said to him, “Don’t forbid him, for he who is not against us is for us.”

⁵⁰Respondeu-lhe Jesus: Não lho proibais; porque quem não é contra vós é por vós.

⁵¹It came to pass, when the days were near that he should be taken up, he intently set his face to go to Jerusalem,

⁵¹Ora, quando se completavam os dias para a sua assunção, manifestou o firme propósito de ir a Jerusalém.

⁵²and sent messengers before his face. They went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, so as to prepare for him.

⁵²Enviou, pois, mensageiros adiante de si. Indo eles, entraram numa aldeia de samaritanos para lhe prepararem pousada.

⁵³They didn’t receive him, because he was traveling with his face set towards Jerusalem.

⁵³Mas não o receberam, porque viajava em direção a Jerusalém.

⁵⁴When his disciples, James and John, saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from the sky, and destroy them, just as Elijah did?”

⁵⁴Vendo isto os discípulos Tiago e João, disseram: Senhor, queres que mandemos descer fogo do céu para os consumir [como Elias também fez?]

⁵⁵But he turned and rebuked them, “You don’t know of what kind of spirit you are.

⁵⁵Ele porém, voltando-se, repreendeu-os, [e disse: Vós não sabeis de que espírito sois.]

⁵⁶ For the Son of Man didn’t come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them.” They went to another village.

⁵⁶[Pois o Filho do Homem não veio para destruir as vidas dos homens, mas para salvá-las.] E foram para outra aldeia.

⁵⁷As they went on the way, a certain man said to him, “I want to follow you wherever you go, Lord.”

⁵⁷Quando iam pelo caminho, disse-lhe um homem: Seguir-te-ei para onde quer que fores.

⁵⁸Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.”

⁵⁸Respondeu-lhe Jesus: As raposas têm covis, e as aves do céu têm ninhos; mas o Filho do homem não tem onde reclinar a cabeça.

⁵⁹He said to another, “Follow me!” But he said, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.”

⁵⁹E a outro disse: Segue-me. Ao que este respondeu: Permite-me ir primeiro sepultar meu pai.

⁶⁰But Jesus said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but you go and announce the Kingdom of God.”

⁶⁰Replicou-lhe Jesus: Deixa os mortos sepultar os seus próprios mortos; tu, porém, vai e anuncia o reino de Deus.

⁶¹Another also said, “I want to follow you, Lord, but first allow me to say good-bye to those who are at my house.”

⁶¹Jesus, porém, lhe respondeu: Ninguém que lança mão do arado e olha para trás é apto para o reino de Deus.

⁶²But Jesus said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God.”
