Marcos 11
O Livro
Jesus entra em Jerusalém
(Mt 21.1-9; Lc 19.28-38; Jo 12.12-15)
11 Quando se aproximavam de Jerusalém, de Betfagé e Betânia, perto do monte das Oliveiras, enviou dois dos discípulos à frente. 2 “Vão àquela aldeia além e logo à entrada encontrarão uma cria de jumento amarrada, que ninguém montou ainda. Soltem-na e tragam-na. 3 Se alguém vos perguntar: ‘Porque estão a fazer isso?’, respondam, ‘O Senhor precisa dela e em breve a devolverá.’ ”
4 Os dois homens foram e encontraram a cria de jumento na rua, amarrada do lado de fora de uma casa. E soltaram-no. 5 Algumas pessoas que ali se encontravam perguntaram: “Porque estão a soltar o jumentinho?” 6 Responderam conforme Jesus lhes tinha dito e os homens consentiram.
7 E levaram o jumentinho a Jesus. Puseram os mantos sobre o lombo do animal e ele montou-o. 8 Muita gente estendeu os seus mantos pelo caminho, enquanto outros cortaram ramos dos campos. 9 As pessoas iam tanto à frente como atrás, exclamando:
“Hossana!
Bendito aquele que vem em nome do Senhor![a]
10 Bendito seja o reino que vem estabelecer, o reino do nosso pai David!
Hossana nas alturas!”
11 Entrou em Jerusalém e dirigiu-se para o templo. Reparou atentamente em tudo à sua volta e foi embora, pois a hora já ia adiantada, retirando-se para Betânia com os doze discípulos.
A figueira mirra
(Mt 21.18-22)
12 No outro dia de manhã, ao saírem de Betânia, Jesus sentiu fome. 13 Vendo ao longe uma figueira coberta de folhas, foi ver se achava algum fruto nela. E aproximando-se, nada achou nela, senão folhas. Aliás, não era a estação de dar figos. 14 Então disse àquela árvore: “Nunca mais ninguém coma fruto de ti, para sempre!” Palavras que os discípulos ouviram.
Jesus no templo
(Mt 21.12-16; Lc 19.45-47; Jo 2.13-16)
15 Voltou a Jerusalém e, ao entrar no templo, começou a expulsar os negociantes e compradores que ali havia; derrubou as mesas dos cambistas e as bancas dos vendedores de pombos; 16 e não deixou entrar mais mercadorias. 17 E explicava-lhes: “As Escrituras afirmam: ‘O meu templo será chamado casa de oração para todas as nações’,[b] mas vocês transformaram-no num covil de ladrões!”[c]
18 Quando os principais sacerdotes e especialistas na Lei souberam o que tinha feito, começaram a estudar a melhor maneira de acabarem com ele. Todavia, tinham medo dele, e que houvesse algum tumulto, porque o ensino de Jesus entusiasmava o povo. 19 Naquela tarde, Jesus e os discípulos deixaram a cidade.
Tenham fé em Deus!
(Mt 21.20-22; 6.14)
20 Na manhã seguinte, indo a passar pela figueira que tinha amaldiçoado, os discípulos repararam que estava seca desde a raiz! 21 Pedro, lembrando-se do que Jesus dissera àquela árvore na véspera, exclamou: “Olha, Mestre, a figueira que amaldiçoaste secou!”
22 Respondeu-lhes Jesus: “Tenham fé em Deus! 23 É realmente como vos digo: quem disser a este monte: ‘Levanta-te e atira-te ao mar!’, não duvidar no seu coração e crer que acontece conforme as suas palavras, assim sucederá. 24 Por isso, podem pedir seja o que for em oração que, se crerem que já o receberam, assim acontecerá. 25 Mas, quando estiverem a orar, perdoem primeiro a toda e qualquer pessoa, para que o vosso Pai que está no céu também vos perdoe as vossas transgressões. 26 Mas, se não perdoarem, o vosso Pai que está nos céus não vos perdoará.”
A autoridade de Jesus questionada
(Mt 21.23-27; Lc 20.1-8)
27 Entretanto, chegaram de novo a Jerusalém. Enquanto passava no recinto do templo, os principais sacerdotes, os especialistas na Lei e os outros anciãos foram ter com ele e perguntaram-lhe: 28 “Com que autoridade fazes essas coisas? Quem te deu autoridade para fazer isso?”
29 Jesus retorquiu-lhes: “Di-lo-ei, se me responderem a uma pergunta: 30 O batismo de João é de inspiração celeste ou humana?”
31 Eles puseram-se a falar entre si: “Se dissermos que é de inspiração celeste, ele perguntará: ‘Então porque não acreditaram nele?’ 32 Mas se dissermos que é de inspiração humana, temos receio da multidão, pois todos têm João na conta de um profeta.” 33 Por fim, responderam: “Não sabemos!”
E Jesus respondeu: “Então também não respondo à vossa pergunta!”
Mark 11
New International Version
Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King(A)(B)
11 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany(C) at the Mount of Olives,(D) Jesus sent two of his disciples, 2 saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden.(E) Untie it and bring it here. 3 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.’”
4 They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway.(F) As they untied it, 5 some people standing there asked, “What are you doing, untying that colt?” 6 They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go. 7 When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. 8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. 9 Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted,
“Hosanna![a]”
10 “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!”
“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”(H)
11 Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.(I)
Jesus Curses a Fig Tree and Clears the Temple Courts(J)(K)(L)
12 The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. 13 Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs.(M) 14 Then he said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard him say it.
15 On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves, 16 and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts. 17 And as he taught them, he said, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations’[c]?(N) But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’[d]”(O)
18 The chief priests and the teachers of the law heard this and began looking for a way to kill him, for they feared him,(P) because the whole crowd was amazed at his teaching.(Q)
19 When evening came, Jesus and his disciples[e] went out of the city.(R)
20 In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots. 21 Peter remembered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi,(S) look! The fig tree you cursed has withered!”
22 “Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. 23 “Truly[f] I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.(T) 24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.(U) 25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”(V) [26] [g]
The Authority of Jesus Questioned(W)
27 They arrived again in Jerusalem, and while Jesus was walking in the temple courts, the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders came to him. 28 “By what authority are you doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave you authority to do this?”
29 Jesus replied, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things. 30 John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or of human origin? Tell me!”
31 They discussed it among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Then why didn’t you believe him?’ 32 But if we say, ‘Of human origin’ …” (They feared the people, for everyone held that John really was a prophet.)(X)
33 So they answered Jesus, “We don’t know.”
Jesus said, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
