Isaías 45

BIBLIA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Así dice Yahveh a su Ungido Ciro, a quien he tomado de la diestra para someter ante él a las naciones y desceñir las cinturas de los reyes, para abrir ante él los batientes de modo que no queden cerradas las puertas.	1 Thus says the Lord to my anointed Cyrus, whose right hand I hold, so that I may subjugate the nations before his face, and I may turn the backs of kings, and I may open the doors before him, and so that the gates will not be shut.
2 Yo marcharé delante de ti y allanaré las pendientes. Quebraré los batientes de bronce y romperé los cerrojos de hierro.	2 I will go before you. And I will humble the glorious ones of the earth. I will shatter the gates of brass, and I will break apart the bars of iron.
3 Te daré los tesoros ocultos y las riquezas escondidas, para que sepas que yo soy Yahveh, el Dios de Israel, que te llamo por tu nombre.	3 And I will give you hidden treasures and the knowledge of secret things, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who calls your name.
4 A causa de mi siervo Jacob y de Israel, mi elegido, te he llamado por tu nombre y te he ennoblecido, sin que tú me conozcas.	4 For the sake of Jacob, my servant, and Israel, my elect, I have even called you by your name. I have taken you up, and you have not known me.
5 Yo soy Yahveh, no hay ningún otro; fuera de mí ningún dios existe. Yo te he ceñido, sin que tú me conozcas,	5 I am the Lord, and there is no one else. There is no god beside me. I girded you, and you have not known me.
6 para que se sepa desde el sol levante hasta el poniente, que todo es nada fuera de mí. Yo soy Yahveh, no ningún otro;	6 So may those who are from the rising of the sun, and those who are from its setting, know that there is no one beside me. I am the Lord, and there is no other.
7 yo modelo la luz y creo la tiniebla, yo hago la dicha y creo la desgracia, yo soy Yahveh, el que hago todo esto.	7 I form the light and create the darkness. I make peace and create disaster. I, the Lord, do all these things.
8 Destilad, cielos, como rocío de lo alto, derramad, nubes, la victoria. Abrase la tierra y produzca salvación, y germine juntamente la justicia. Yo, Yahveh, lo he creado.	8 Send down dew from above, O heavens, and let the clouds rain down upon the just! Let the earth open and spring forth a savior! And let justice rise up at once! I, the Lord, have created him.
9 ¡Ay de quien litiga con el que la ha modelado, la vasija entre las vasijas de barro! ¿Dice la arcilla al que la modela: «¿Qué haces tú?», y «¿Tu obra no está hecha con destreza?»	9 Woe to him who contradicts his Maker, a mere shard from an earthen vessel! Should the clay say to the potter, “What are you making?” or, “Your work is not made by your hands?”
10 ¡Ay del que dice a su padre!: «¿Qué has engendrado?» y a su madre: «¿Qué has dado a luz?»	10 Woe to him who says to his father, “Why did you conceive?” or to a woman, “Why did you give birth?”
11 Así dice Yahveh, el Santo de Israel y su modelador: «¿Vais a pedirme señales acerca de mis hijos y a darme órdenes acerca de la obra de mis manos?	11 Thus says the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, his Maker: Would you question me about the future, concerning my sons, and command me concerning the work of my hands?
12 Yo hice la tierra y creé al hombre en ella. Yo extendí los cielos con mis manos y doy órdenes a todo su ejército.	12 I made the earth, and I created man upon it. My hand stretched out the heavens, and I have commanded all their hosts.
13 Yo le he suscitado para la victoria y he allanado todos sus caminos. El reconstruirá mi ciudad y enviará a mis deportados sin rescate y sin recompensa», dice Yahveh Sebaot.	13 I have raised him up unto justice, and I will direct all his ways. He himself will build my city and release my captives, but not for ransom or gifts, says the Lord, the God of hosts.
14 Así dice Yahveh: Los productos de Egipto, el comercio de Kus y los sebaítas, de elevada estatura, vendrán a ti y tuyos serán. Irán detrás de ti, encadenados, ante ti se postrarán, y te suplicarán: «Sólo en ti hay Dios, no hay ningún otro, no hay más dioses».	14 Thus says the Lord: The labor of Egypt, and the business dealings of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of stature, will pass to you and will be yours. They will walk behind you. They will travel, bound in irons. And they will adore you and petition you: “In you alone is God, and there is no God apart from you.
15 De cierto que tú eres un dios oculto, el Dios de Israel, salvador.	15 Truly, you are a hidden God, the God of Israel, the Savior.”
16 Quedarán abochornados, afrentados, marcharán con ignominia los fabricadores de ídolos.	16 They have all been confounded and should be ashamed! These fabricators of errors have departed together into confusion!
17 Israel será salvado por Yahveh, con salvación perpetua. No quedaréis abochornados ni afrentados nunca jamás.	17 Israel is saved in the Lord by an eternal salvation. You will not be confounded, and you will not be ashamed, even forever and ever.
18 Pues así dice Yahveh, creador de los cielos, él, que es Dios, plasmador de la tierra y su hacedor, él, que la ha fundamentado, y no la creó caótica, sino que para ser habitada la plasmó: «Yo soy Yahveh, no existe ningún otro.	18 For thus says the Lord, who created the heavens, God himself who formed the earth and made it, the very Molder of it. He did not create it to no purpose. He formed it so that it would be inhabited. I am the Lord, and there is no other.
19 No he hablado en oculto ni en lugar tenebroso. No he dicho al linaje de Jacob: Buscadme en el caos. Yo soy Yahveh, que digo lo que es justo y anuncio lo que es recto».	19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth. I have not said to the offspring of Jacob, “Seek me in vain.” I am the Lord, who speaks justice, who announces what is right.
20 Reuníos y venid, acercaos todos, supervivientes de las naciones. No saben nada los que llevan sus ídolos de madera, los que suplican a un dios que no puede salvar.	20 Assemble yourselves, and approach, and draw near together, you who have been saved among the Gentiles. They lack knowledge, who lift up the wood of their sculpture, and who petition a god unable to save.
21 Exponed, aducid vuestras pruebas, deliberad todos juntos: «¿Quién hizo oír esto desde antiguo y lo anunció hace tiempo? ¿No he sido yo Yahveh? No hay otro dios, fuera de mí. Dios justo y salvador, no hay otro fuera de mí.	21 Announce it, and approach, and consult together. Who has caused this to be heard from the beginning, and who has foretold it from that time? Is it not I, the Lord? And is there some other god beside me? I am a just God who saves, and there is no one except me.
22 Volveos a mí y seréis salvados confines todos de la tierra, porque yo soy Dios, no existe ningún otro.	22 All ends of the earth, be converted to me, and you will be saved. For I am God, and there is no other.
23 Yo juro por mi nombre; de mi boca sale palabra verdadera y no será vana: Que ante mí se doblará toda rodilla y toda lengua jurará	23 I have sworn by myself. The Word of justice will proceed from my mouth, and it will not turn back.
24 diciendo: ¡Sólo en Yahveh hay victoria y fuerza! A él se volverán abochornados todos los que se inflamaban contra él.	24 For every knee shall bend to me, and every tongue shall swear it.
25 Por Yahveh triunfará y será gloriosa toda la raza de Israel.	25 Therefore, he will say, “In the Lord are my justices and my dominion.” They will go to him. And all who fight against him will be confounded.
	26 In the Lord, all the offspring of Israel will be justified and praised.
