Translation of "Scriptures" in Portuguese

"What were you reading?" "Something from the sacred scriptures."

"O que é que tu lias?" "Algo das escrituras sagradas."

In the Middle Ages, anyone who objected to the Holy Scriptures was put to death.

Na Idade Média, eram mortos todos aqueles que iam contra as Sagradas Escrituras.

We call scriptures the sacred books of our holy religion, as distinguished from the false and profane writings on which all other faiths are based.

Chamamos Sagrada Escritura os livros de nossa santa religião, que se distinguem dos escritos falsos e profanos em que se baseiam todas as outras crenças.
