English to Portuguese: Pope Francis visit to Philipines
Source text - English As he celebrated Sunday Mass before a crowd of millions here in a cornerstone of Catholicism in Asia, Pope Francis stressed the need to care for the world’s poor, a theme he has repeated throughout his five-day visit to the Philippines.
He also touched on the subject of the environment, a topic he is expected to address in depth in an encyclical later this year.
God “created the world as a beautiful garden and asked us to care for it,” Francis said.
“Through sin, man has disfigured that natural beauty.
Through sin, man has also destroyed the unity and beauty of our human family, creating social structures that perpetuate poverty, ignorance and corruption.”
Six million people gathered in Manila’s Rizal Park and surrounding streets, according to Col. Restituto Padilla Jr., a spokesman for the Armed Forces of the Philippines.
The crowd waited for hours in a light rain for the afternoon Mass.
As the Mass was broadcast on loudspeakers, the crowd stood quietly, some raising their hands in quiet reverence, others huddling together to avoid the rain.
In remarks to young people Sunday morning at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila, Francis spoke about the need to deepen one’s sense of compassion, to go beyond simply giving to the poor, but to understand their plight.
Francis has discussed humans’ effect on the environment and climate change at points on this trip, which has special resonance in a country frequently battered by powerful typhoons.
About one-quarter of the Philippines’ 100 million citizens live in poverty, and those in substandard housing in coastal areas are particularly vulnerable to storms.
Translation - Portuguese Enquanto celebrava a missa de domingo diante de uma multidão de milhões aqui em uma pedra angular do catolicismo na Ásia, o Papa Francisco enfatizou a necessidade de cuidar das pessoas pobres do mundo, tema que abordou repetidamente ao longo de sua visita de cinco dias às Filipinas.
Também abordou a questão do meio ambiente, um tópico no qual deve se aprofundar em uma encíclica ainda este ano.
Deus "criou o mundo como um belo jardim e pediu para que cuidássemos dele", disse Francisco.
“Através do pecado, o homem desfigurou essa beleza natural.
Também através do pecado, o homem destruiu a unidade e a beleza de nossa família humana, criando estruturas sociais que perpetuam a pobreza, a ignorância e a corrupção.”
Seis milhões de pessoas se reuniram no Parque Rizal e em ruas ao seu entorno em Manila, de acordo com o cel. Restituto Padilla Jr., porta-voz das Forças Armadas das Filipinas.
A multidão esperou horas sob uma chuva leve pela missa da tarde.
Enquanto a missa era transmitida nos alto-falantes, a multidão ficou calada, algumas pessoas levantando as mãos em reverência silenciosa, outras aproximando-se para evitar a chuva.
Conversando com jovens na manhã de domingo na Universidade de São Tomás, em Manila, Francisco falou sobre a necessidade de aprofundar o senso de compaixão, de ir além de simplesmente dar aos pobres, mas sim entender sua grave situação.
Em partes dessa viagem, o Papa Francisco discutiu sobre o impacto dos humanos sobre o meio ambiente e as mudanças climáticas, o que tem ressonância especial em um país que é frequentemente atingido por poderosos tufões.
Cerca de um quarto dos 100 milhões de habitantes das Filipinas vive em situação de pobreza, e os que vivem em moradias precárias nas áreas costeiras são particularmente vulneráveis a tempestades.

Bio
Being passionate about different languages and different cultures encouraged me to study some of them and to become a translator. Since my time at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul I translated many different projects ranging from scientific papers to websites and a computer game. I also participated in the team that translated the book "Double: A Psychoanalytic Study by Rank, Otto" from German to Portuguese (Der Doppelgänger. Eine Psychoanalytische Studie/ Wien/ Zürich: Internationaler Psychoanalytischer Verlag, 1925).
I'm looking to further improve my experiences working as a freelance translator and proofreader on multiple online platforms.
