Isaiah 23

KING JAMES BIBLE	BIBLIA
1 The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in: from the land of Chittim it is revealed to them.	1 Oráculo sobre Tiro. Ululad, naves de Tarsis, porque ha sido destruida vuestra fortaleza. De vuelta del país de Kittim les ha sido descubierto.
2 Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.	2 Quedad mudos, habitantes de la costa, mercaderes de Sidón, cuyos viajantes atravesaban el mar
3 And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river, is her revenue; and she is a mart of nations.	3 por las aguas inmensas. La siembra del canal, la siega del Nilo, era su riqueza, y ella era el mercado de las naciones.
4 Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, even the strength of the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I nourish up young men, nor bring up virgins.	4 Avergüénzate, Sidón, porque ha dicho la mar: «No tuve dolores ni di a luz, ni crié mancebos, ni eduqué doncellas».
5 As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.	5 En cuanto se oiga la nueva en Egipto, se dolerán de las nuevas de Tiro.
6 Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle.	6 Pasad a Tarsis, ululad, habitantes de la costa:
7 Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn.	7 ¿Es ése vuestro emporio arrogante, de remota antigüedad, cuyos pies le llevaron lejos en sus andanzas?
8 Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth?	8 ¿Quién ha planeado esto conta Tiro, la coronada cuyos comerciantes eran príncipes, cuyos traficantes eran nobles de la tierra?
9 The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth.	9 Es Yahveh Sebaot quien ha planeado profanar el orgullo de toda su magnificencia y envilecer a todos los nobles de la tierra.
10 Pass through thy land as a river, O daughter of Tarshish: there is no more strength.	10 Cultiva tu tierra, hija de Tarsis: no hay puerto ya.
11 He stretched out his hand over the sea, he shook the kingdoms: the LORD hath given a commandment against the merchant city, to destroy the strong holds thereof.	11 Su mano extendió él sobre la mar, hizo estremecer los reinos. Yahveh mandó respecto a Canaán, demoler sus castillos,
12 And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin, daughter of Zidon: arise, pass over to Chittim; there also shalt thou have no rest.	12 y dijo: No vuelvas más a rebullir, doncella oprimida, hija de Sidón. Levántate y vete a Kittim, que tampoco allí tendrás reposo.
13 Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, till the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; and he brought it to ruin.	13 Ahí tienes la tierra de los caldeos; no eran un pueblo; Asur la fundó para las bestias del desierto. Levantaron torres de asalto, demolieron sus alcázares, la convirtieron en ruinas.
14 Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste.	14 Ululad, naves de Tarsis, porque ha sido destruida vuestra fortaleza.
15 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot.	15 Aquel día quedará en olvido Tiro durante setenta años. En los días de otro rey, al cabo de setenta años, le sucederá a Tiro como en la canción de la ramera:
16 Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.	16 «Toma el arpa, rodea la ciudad, ramera olvidada: tócala bien, canta a más y mejor, para que seas recordada».
17 And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the LORD will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.	17 Bien, al cabo de los setenta años visitará Yahveh a Tiro, y ella volverá a su ganancia y se prostituirá a todos los reinos de la tierra sobre la haz de la tierra.
18 And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the LORD: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the LORD, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.	18 Será su mercadería y su ganancia consagrada a Yahveh. No será atesorada ni almacenada, sino que para los que moren delante de Yahveh será su mercadería, para comer a saciedad y para cubrirse espléndidamente.
