Dia dos avós
Os avós são tesouros vivos de sabedoria e fé. A Bíblia honra os mais velhos e celebra a transmissão de fé entre gerações — dos avós aos netos e destes aos que virão.
A bênção dos avós
A coroa dos velhos são os filhos dos filhos. A misericórdia de Deus é de geração em geração sobre os que o temem.
Grandparents are proud
of their grandchildren,
and children should be proud
of their parents.
The Lord is always kind
to those who worship him,
and he keeps his promises
to their descendants
As long as I can remember,
good people have never
been left helpless,
and their children have never
gone begging for food.
Each generation will announce
to the next your wonderful
and powerful deeds.
The Lord is good!
His love and faithfulness
will last forever.
Força e fidelidade
Mesmo na velhice darão frutos. Os cabelos brancos são coroa de glória. Deus não abandona seus filhos na idade avançada.
They will be like trees
that stay healthy and fruitful,
even when they are old.
And they will say about you,
"The Lord always does right!
God is our mighty rock."
Gray hair is a glorious crown
worn by those
who have lived right.
I will still be the same
when you are old and gray,
and I will take care of you.
I created you. I will carry you
and always keep you safe.
Even young people get tired,
then stumble and fall.
But those who trust the Lord
will find new strength.
They will be strong like eagles
soaring upward on wings;
they will walk and run
without getting tired.
You must be very careful not to forget the things you have seen God do for you. Keep reminding yourselves, and tell your children and grandchildren as well.
