Dia dos pais
O Dia dos Pais celebra o amor e o sacrifício paterno. A Bíblia honra os pais como provedores, protetores e guias espirituais que moldam as próximas gerações.
O pai que educa
Instrui a criança no caminho em que deve andar. O pai justo educa com amor, firmeza e o exemplo de uma vida íntegra.
He that spares the rod hates his son: but he that loves, carefully chastens him.
He that walks blameless in justice, shall leave his children blessed.
A righteous father brings up his children well; and his soul rejoices over a wise son.
In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence: and he leaves his children a support.
Honra e alegria
Honra a teu pai e tua mãe. Os filhos são herança do Senhor, e a família que serve a Deus junta é inabalável.
Honour thy father and thy mother, that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest live long on the good land, which the Lord thy God gives to thee.
Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of thy house: thy children as young olive-plants round about thy table.
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord. May the Lord bless thee out of Sion; and mayest thou see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
But if it seem not good to you to serve the Lord, choose to yourselves this day whom ye will serve, whether the gods of your fathers that were on the other side of the river, or the gods of the Amorites, among whom ye dwell upon their land: but I and my house will serve the Lord, for he is holy.
