Honrar os pais
Honrar pai e mãe é mandamento de Deus com promessa de vida longa e feliz. A Bíblia ensina que respeitar, obedecer e cuidar dos pais é dever sagrado dos filhos.
O mandamento com promessa
Honra a teu pai e a tua mãe para que vá bem contigo e vivas muito tempo sobre a terra. É o primeiro mandamento com promessa.
"Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
"‘Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God commanded you, that your days may be long, and that it may go well with you in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
"Honor your father and mother" (this is the first commandment with a promise), "that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land."
Children and Parents
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. "Honor your father and mother" (this is the first commandment with a promise), "that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land." Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord.
Obedecer e respeitar
Filhos, obedecei a vossos pais no Senhor. Ouvir a instrução do pai e não desprezar o ensino da mãe traz sabedoria.
The Enticement of Sinners
Hear, my son, your father’s instruction,
and forsake not your mother’s teaching,
The Enticement of Sinners
Hear, my son, your father’s instruction,
and forsake not your mother’s teaching,
for they are a graceful garland for your head
and pendants for your neck.
A Father’s Wise Instruction
Hear, O sons, a father’s instruction,
and be attentive, that you may gain insight,
A wise son hears his father’s instruction,
but a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.
Listen to your father who gave you life,
and do not despise your mother when she is old.
He answered them, "And why do you break the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?For God commanded, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘Whoever reviles father or mother must surely die.’
He answered them, "And why do you break the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?For God commanded, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘Whoever reviles father or mother must surely die.’But you say, ‘If anyone tells his father or his mother, "What you would have gained from me is given to God,"he need not honor his father.’ So for the sake of your tradition you have made void the wordof God.
Consequências da desonra
A Bíblia adverte severamente contra a desonra aos pais. Quem amaldiçoa ou agride os pais enfrenta consequências sérias.
He who does violence to his father and chases away his mother
is a son who brings shame and reproach.
If one curses his father or his mother,
his lamp will be put out in utter darkness.
The eye that mocks a father
and scorns to obey a mother
will be picked out by the ravens of the valley
and eaten by the vultures.
"Whoever curses his father or his mother shall be put to death.
Godlessness in the Last Days
But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good,
Cuidar dos pais
Quem não cuida dos seus, principalmente de sua família, negou a fé. Honrar os pais inclui respeitar os idosos.
But if a widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to show godliness to their own household and to make some return to their parents, for this is pleasing in the sight of God.
But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
Every one of you shall revere his mother and his father, and you shall keep my Sabbaths: I am the Lord your God.
"You shall stand up before the gray head and honor the face of an old man, and you shall fear your God: I am the Lord.
