CHAPTER 12

Fire and Water

The dwarves sat in the darkness and silence for a very long time. They did not speak very much and they did not eat very much. They did not know how long they stayed there. Finally, after what felt like days and days, Thorin spoke, “Let’s try the secret door!” he said. “I must feel the wind on my face soon or I will die. I prefer to be killed by Smaug in the open air than suffocate in here!”

They discovered that part of the tunnel was blocked by broken rocks. The secret door would never open again. “We are trapped!” they shouted. “This is the end. We will all die here.” But somehow, just when the Dwarves were most afraid, Bilbo felt a strong sense of confidence.

Capítulo 12

Fire and Water
Fogo e água

The dwarves sat in the darkness and silence for a very long time.
Os anões ficaram sentados na escuridão e no silêncio por muito tempo.

They did not speak very much and they did not eat very much.
Eles não falavam muito e não comiam muito.

They did not know how long they stayed there.
Eles não sabiam quanto tempo ficaram lá.

Finally, after what felt like days and days, Thorin spoke, “Let’s try the secret door!” he said.
Finalmente, depois do que parecia dias e dias, Thorin falou: “Vamos tentar a porta secreta!” ele disse.

“I must feel the wind on my face soon or I will die.
“Tenho que sentir o vento em meu rosto logo ou morrerei.

I prefer to be killed by Smaug in the open air than suffocate in here!”
Prefiro ser morto por Smaug ao ar livre do que sufocar aqui!”

They discovered that part of the tunnel was blocked by broken rocks.
Eles descobriram que parte do túnel estava bloqueada por pedras quebradas.

The secret door would never open again.
A porta secreta nunca mais se abriria.

“We are trapped!” they shouted.
“Estamos presos!” eles gritaram.

“This is the end. We will all die here.”
“Este é o fim. Todos morreremos aqui.”

But somehow, just when the Dwarves were most afraid, Bilbo felt a strong sense of confidence.
Mas de alguma forma, justamente quando os anões estavam com mais medo, Bilbo sentiu uma forte sensação de confiança.
