CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAINBIBLIA
1 Israel is a leafy vine, its fruit has been suitable to him. According to the multitude of his fruit, he has multiplied altars; according to the fertility of his land, he has abounded with graven images.1 Vid frondosa era Israel produciendo fruto a su aire: cuanto más aumentaba su fruto, más aumentaba los altares; cuanto mejor era su tierra, mejores hacía las estelas.
2 His heart has been divided, so now they will cross the divide. He will break apart their images; he will plunder their sanctuaries.2 Su corazón es doble, mas ahora van a expiar; él romperá sus altares, demolerá sus estelas.
3 For now they will say, “We have no king. For we do not fear the Lord. And what would a king do for us?”3 Entonces dirán: «No tenemos rey, porque no hemos temido a Yahveh, y el rey, ¿qué haría por nosotros?
4 You speak words about a useless vision, and you will strike a deal. And judgment will spring up like bitterness in the furrows of the field.4 Pronuncian palabras, juramentos vanos, conclusión de alianzas, y el juicio florece como hierba venenosa en los surcos del campo.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria have worshipped the calf of Bethaven. For the keepers of its temple, who had exulted over it in its glory, and its people, have mourned over it because it migrated from there.5 Por el becerro de Bet Aven tiemblan los habitantes de Samaria; sí, por él hace duelo su pueblo, por él sus sacerdotes: ¡que exulten por su gloria, porque ha emigrado lejos de él!
6 If, indeed, it also has been offered to Assur, as a gift for the Avenging king, confusion will seize Ephraim, and Israel will be confounded by his own will.6 El también será llevado a Asiria, como ofrenda para el gran rey. Efraím recogerá vergüenza, e Israel quedará corrida de su plan.
7 Samaria has required her king to pass by, like foam on the face of the water.7 ¡Se ha acabado Samaria! Su rey es como espuma sobre la haz del agua.
8 And the heights of the idol, the sin of Israel, will be utterly destroyed. The burr and the thistle will rise up over their altars. And they will say to the mountains, ‘Cover us,’ and to the hills, ‘Fall on us.’8 Serán destruidos los altos de Aven, el pecado de Israel. Espinas y zarzas treparán por sus altares. Dirán entonces a los montes: «¡Cubridnos!» y a las colinas: «¡Caed sobre nosotros!»
9 From the days of Gibeah, Israel has sinned; in this, they remained firm. The battle in Gibeah against the sons of iniquity will not take hold of them.9 Desde los días de Guibeá, has pecado, Israel, ¡allí se han plantado! ¿No los alcanzará en Guibeá la guerra, a los hijos de la injusticia?
10 According to my desire, I will correct them. And the peoples will be gathered together over them, while they are chastised for their two iniquities.10 Voy a venir a visitarlos, y se aliarán pueblos contra ellos, cuando sean visitados por su doble culpa.
11 Ephraim is a heifer that has been taught to love treading out the grain, but I passed over the beauty of her neck. I will rise over Ephraim. Judah will plough; Jacob will break up the soil for himself.11 Efraím era una novilla domesticada, que gustaba de la trilla; yo pasé el yugo sobre su hermoso cuello; uncí el carro a Efraím, Judá arraba, Jacob rastrillaba.
12 Sow for yourselves in justice, and harvest in the mouth of mercy; renew your fallow land. But the time when you will seek the Lord is the time when he will arrive who will teach you justice.12 Sembraos simiente de justicia, recoged cosecha de amor, desbarbechad lo que es barbecho; ya es tiempo de buscar a Yahveh, hasta que venga a lloveros justicia.
13 You have ploughed impiety; you have harvested iniquity; you have eaten the fruit of lies. For you had confidence in your ways, in the multitude of your good fortunes.13 Habéis arado maldad, injusticia habéis segado, habéis comido fruto de mentira. Por haber confiado en tus carros, en la multitud de tus valientes,
14 A tumult will arise among your people. And all your fortifications will be laid waste, just as Salman was destroyed by the house of him that judged Baal on the day of the battle, the mother having been crushed against her sons.14 tumulto de guerra se alzará en tu pueblo, y todas tus fortalezas serán devastadas, como Salmán devastó a Bet Arbel el día de la batalla, cuando la madre fue estrellada sobre sus hijos.
15 So has Bethel done to you, before the face of your malicious wickedness.15 Eso ha hecho con vosotros Betel por vuestra redoblada maldad. ¡A la aurora desaparecerá el rey de Israel!
