1 To you Gentiles also, who were dead through your offences and sins,
1 E vos vivificou, estando vós mortos em ofensas e pecados,
2 which were once habitual to you while you walked in the ways of this world and obeyed the Prince of the powers of the air, the spirits that are now at work in the hearts of the sons of disobedience–to you God has given Life.
2 em que, noutro tempo, andastes, segundo o curso deste mundo, segundo o príncipe das potestades do ar, do espírito que, agora, opera nos filhos da desobediência;
3 Among them all of us also formerly passed our lives, governed by the inclinations of our lower natures, indulging the cravings of those natures and of our own thoughts, and were in our original state deserving of anger like all others.
3 entre os quais todos nós também, antes, andávamos nos desejos da nossa carne, fazendo a vontade da carne e dos pensamentos; e éramos por natureza filhos da ira, como os outros também.
4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the intense love which He bestowed on us,
4 Mas Deus, que é riquíssimo em misericórdia, pelo seu muito amor com que nos amou,
5 caused us, dead though we were through our offences, to live with Christ –it is by grace that you have been saved–
5 estando nós ainda mortos em nossas ofensas, nos vivificou juntamente com Cristo (pela graça sois salvos),
6 raised us with Him from the dead, and enthroned us with Him in the heavenly realms as being in Christ Jesus,
6 e nos ressuscitou juntamente com ele, e nos fez assentar nos lugares celestiais, em Cristo Jesus;
7 in order that, by His goodness to us in Christ Jesus, He might display in the Ages to come the transcendent riches of His grace.
7 para mostrar nos séculos vindouros as abundantes riquezas da sua graça, pela sua benignidade para conosco em Cristo Jesus.
8 For it is by grace that you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves. It is God's gift, and is not on the ground of merit–
8 Porque pela graça sois salvos, por meio da fé; e isso não vem de vós; é dom de Deus.
9 so that it may be impossible for any one to boast.
9 Não vem das obras, para que ninguém se glorie.
10 For we are God's own handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for good works which He has pre-destined us to practise.
10 Porque somos feitura sua, criados em Cristo Jesus para as boas obras, as quais Deus preparou para que andássemos nelas.
11 Therefore, do not forget that formerly you were Gentiles as to your bodily condition. You were called the Uncircumcision by those who style themselves the Circumcised–their circumcision being one which the knife has effected.
11 Portanto, lembrai-vos de que vós, noutro tempo, éreis gentios na carne e chamados incircuncisão pelos que, na carne, se chamam circuncisão feita pela mão dos homens;
12 At that time you were living apart from Christ, estranged from the Commonwealth of Israel, with no share by birth in the Covenants which are based on the Promises, and you had no hope and no God, in all the world.
12 que, naquele tempo, estáveis sem Cristo, separados da comunidade de Israel e estranhos aos concertos da promessa, não tendo esperança e sem Deus no mundo.
13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were so far away have been brought near through the death of Christ.
13 Mas, agora, em Cristo Jesus, vós, que antes estáveis longe, já pelo sangue de Cristo chegastes perto.
14 For He is our peace–He who has made Jews and Gentiles one, and in His own human nature has broken down the hostile dividing wall,
14 Porque ele é a nossa paz, o qual de ambos os povos fez um; e, derribando a parede de separação que estava no meio,
15 by setting aside the Law with its commandments, expressed, as they were, in definite decrees. His design was to unite the two sections of humanity in Himself so as to form one new man,
15 na sua carne, desfez a inimizade, isto é, a lei dos mandamentos, que consistia em ordenanças, para criar em si mesmo dos dois um novo homem, fazendo a paz,
16 thus effecting peace, and to reconcile Jews and Gentiles in one body to God, by means of His cross–slaying by it their mutual enmity.
16 e, pela cruz, reconciliar ambos com Deus em um corpo, matando com ela as inimizades.
17 So He came and proclaimed good news of peace to you who were so far away, and peace to those who were near;
17 E, vindo, ele evangelizou a paz a vós que estáveis longe e aos que estavam perto;
18 because it is through Him that Jews and Gentiles alike have access through one Spirit to the Father.
18 porque, por ele, ambos temos acesso ao Pai em um mesmo Espírito.
19 You are therefore no longer mere foreigners or persons excluded from civil rights. On the contrary you share citizenship with God's people and are members of His family.
19 Assim que já não sois estrangeiros, nem forasteiros, mas concidadãos dos Santos e da família de Deus;
20 You are a building which has been reared on the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets, the cornerstone being Christ Jesus Himself,
20 edificados sobre o fundamento dos apóstolos e dos profetas, de que Jesus Cristo é a principal pedra da esquina;
21 in union with whom the whole fabric, fitted and closely joined together, is growing so as to form a holy sanctuary in the Lord;
21 no qual todo o edifício, bem-ajustado, cresce para templo santo no Senhor,
22 in whom you also are being built up together to become a fixed abode for God through the Spirit.
22 no qual também vós juntamente sois edificados para morada de Deus no Espírito.
