Isaiah 16

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	BIBLIA
1 O Lord, send forth the Lamb, the Ruler of the earth, from the Rock of the desert to the mountain of the daughter of Zion.	1 Enviad corderos al señor del país desde la Roca del Desierto al monte de la hija de Sión.
2 And this shall be: like a bird fleeing away, and like fledglings flying from the nest, so will the daughters of Moab be at the passage of Arnon.	2 Como aves espantadas, nidada dispersa, serán las hijas de Moab cabe los vados del Arnón.
3 Form a plan. Call a council. Let your shadow be as if it were night, even at midday. Conceal the fugitives, and do not betray the wanderers.	3 Presenta algún plan, toma una decisión. Haz tu sombra como la noche en pleno mediodía; esconde a los acosados, al fugitivo no delates.
4 My fugitives will live with you. Become a hiding place, O Moab, from the face of the destroyer. For the dust is at its end; the miserable one has been consumed. He who trampled the earth has failed.	4 Acójanse en ti los acosados de Moab; sé para ellos cobijo ante el devastador. Cuando no queden tiranos, acabe la devastación, y desaparezcan del país los opresores,
5 And a throne will be prepared in mercy, and One shall sit upon it in truth, in the tabernacle of David, judging and seeking judgment, and quickly repaying what is just.	5 será establecido sobre la piedad el trono, y se sentará en él con lealtad - en la tienda de David - un juez que busque el derecho, y sea presto a la justicia.
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud. His pride and his arrogance and his indignation is more than his strength.	6 Hemos oído la arrogancia de Moab: ¡una gran arrogancia! Su altanería, su arrogancia y su furor y sus bravatas sin fuerza.
7 For this reason, Moab will wail to Moab; each one will wail. Speak of their wounds to those who rejoice upon the brick walls.	7 Por eso, que ulule Moab por Moab; ulule todo él. Por los panes de uvas de Quir Jaréset gimen: «¡Ay, abatidos!»
8 For the suburbs of Heshbon are deserted, and the lords of the Gentiles have cut down the vineyard of Sibmah. Its vines have arrived even at Jazer. They have wandered in the desert. Its seedlings have been abandoned. They have crossed over the sea.	8 Pues la campiña de Jesbón se ha marchitado, el viñedo de Sibmá, cuyas cepas majaron los señores de las gentes. Hasta Yazer alcanzaban, se perdían por el desierto, sus frondas se extendían, pasaban la mar.
9 I will weep with the tears of Jazer over this, the vineyard of Sibmah. I will inebriate you with my tears, Heshbon and Elealeh! For the sound of those who trample has rushed over your vintage and over your harvest.	9 Por eso voy a llorar como llora Yazer, viña de Sibmá. Te regaré con mis lágrimas, Jesbón y Elalé, porque sobre tu cosecha y sobre tu segada se ha extinguido el clamor,
10 And so, rejoicing and exultation will be taken away from Carmel, and there will be no jubilation or exultation in the vineyards. He who was accustomed to tread will not tread out the wine in the winepress. I have taken away the sound of those who tread.	10 y se retira del vergel alegría y alborozo, y en las viñas no se lanzan cantos de júbilo, ni gritos. Vino en los lagares no pisa el pisador: el clamor ha cesado.
11 Over this, my heart will resonate like a harp for Moab, and my inner most being for the brick wall.	11 Por eso mis entrañas por Moab como el arpa resuenan, y mi interior por Quir Jeres.
12 And this shall be: when it is seen that Moab has struggled upon his high places, he will enter his holy places to pray, but he will not prevail.	12 Luego, cuando vea Moab que se cansa sobre el alto, entrará a su santuario a orar, pero nada podrá.
13 This is the word that the Lord has spoken to Moab concerning that time.	13 Esta es la palabra que en un tiempo pronunció Yahveh acerca de Moab.
14 And now the Lord has spoken, saying: In three years, like the years of a hired hand, the glory of Moab concerning the entire multitude of the people will be taken away, and what is left behind will be small and weak and not so numerous.	14 Y ahora ha hablado Yahveh diciendo: «Dentro de tres años, como años de jornalero, será despreciada la gloria de Moab con toda su numerosa muchedumbre, y el resto será pequeñísimo, insignificante».
