1 Palabra que el Señor dirigió a Jeremías a propósito de la sequía:1 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the words of the drought.
2 Judá está de luto, | sus puertas se consumen | por tierra, ennegrecidas. | Jerusalén lanza alaridos.2 “Judea has mourned. And its gates have fallen and become hard to discern on the ground. And the outcry of Jerusalem has ascended.
3 Sus nobles envían | a sus siervos por agua; | llegan a los aljibes: | no encuentran ni gota; | regresan de vacío, | confusos, humillados, | cubierta la cabeza.3 The greater ones have sent their lesser ones to the water. They went to draw water; they did not find water; they carried their vessels back empty. They were confounded and afflicted, and so they covered their heads.
4 El campo está extenuado | por falta de lluvia en el país. | Los labradores están abatidos: | también se cubren la cabeza.4 Because of the devastation of the earth, because rain did not fall upon the earth, the farmers were confounded; they covered their heads.
5 Incluso la cierva en el campo | pare y abandona a sus crías | por falta de pastos.5 For even the doe has given birth in the field, and then left it behind. For there was no grass.
6 Los onagros están junto a las dunas, | ventean lo mismo que chacales: | tienen la mirada mortecina | por falta de hierba.6 And the wild donkeys stood upon the rocks; like dragons, they drew in the wind, but their eyes failed. For there was no grass.”
7 Aunque nuestras culpas nos acusan, | haz algo, Señor, por tu nombre. | Son numerosas nuestras rebeldías, | hemos pecado contra ti.7 “O Lord, if our iniquities have responded against us, let it be for the sake of your name. For our rebellions are many; we have sinned against you.
8 Tú, esperanza de Israel, | salvador en tiempo de infortunio, | ¿por qué habrías de portarte | como un forastero en el país, | lo mismo que hace un viajero | que solo se detiene a pernoctar?8 O Hope of Israel, its Savior in time of tribulation, why would you be like a sojourner in the land, and like a traveler turning aside for lodging?
9 ¿Por qué habrías de portarte | como un hombre aturdido, | como guerrero incapaz de salvar? | Tú estás entre nosotros, Señor, | y tu nombre es invocado sobre nosotros. | ¡No te deshagas de nosotros!9 Why would you be like a wandering man, like a strong man who is unable to save? But you, O Lord, are with us, and your name is invoked over us, so do not abandon us!”
10 Esto dice el Señor de este pueblo: «¡Cómo les gusta ir de aquí para allá sin dar tregua a sus pies! Pero el Señor no se complace en ellos: ahora se acuerda de sus culpas y va a castigar sus pecados».10 Thus says the Lord to this people, who have loved to move their feet, and who have not rested, but who have not pleased the Lord: “Now he will remember their iniquities, and now he will visit against their sins.”
11 Me dijo el Señor: —No intercedas a favor de este pueblo.11 And the Lord said to me: “Do not choose to pray for this people for good.
12 Aunque ayunen, no pienso escuchar sus gritos. Aunque presenten holocaustos y ofrendas, no pienso complacerme en ellos. Voy a acabar con ellos mediante la espada, el hambre y la peste.12 When they will fast, I will not heed their petitions. And if they offer holocausts and victims, I will not accept them. For I will consume them by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence.”
13 Respondí yo: —¡Ay, Señor! Es que los profetas les dicen: «No veréis la espada ni pasaréis hambre. Os concederé permanente seguridad en este lugar».13 And I said: “Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God! The prophets are saying to them: ‘You will not see the sword, and there will be no famine among you. Instead, he will give you true peace in this place.’ ”
14 El Señor me contestó: —Esos profetas se valen de mi nombre para profetizar mentiras. Ni los he enviado, ni les he encargado nada; ni siquiera les he hablado. Os transmiten como profecía visiones falsas, oráculos vacíos y fantasías de su mente.14 And the Lord said to me: “The prophets prophesy falsely in my name. I did not send them, and I did not instruct them, and I have not spoken to them. They prophesy to you a lying vision, and a divination, and a fraud, and a seduction from their own heart.
15 Por tanto, esto dice el Señor a los profetas que profetizan en mi nombre sin que yo los haya enviado, a esos que dicen que no habrá espada ni hambre en este país: «Esos profetas serán consumidos por la espada y por el hambre».15 For this reason, thus says the Lord about the prophets who prophesy in my name, whom I have not sent, who say: ‘Sword and famine will not be in this land.’ By sword and famine those prophets will be consumed.
16 Y el pueblo al que profetizan aparecerá tirado por las calles de Jerusalén, víctima del hambre y de la espada. No serán enterrados, ni sus mujeres, hijos e hijas. Haré que recaiga sobre ellos su propia maldad.16 And the people, to whom they prophesy, will be cast into the streets of Jerusalem, due to famine and the sword, and there will be no one who may bury them, they and their wives, their sons and daughters, and I will pour out their own evil upon them.
17 Transmíteles esta palabra: | Mis ojos se deshacen en lágrimas, | de día y de noche no cesan: | por la terrible desgracia que padece | la doncella, hija de mi pueblo, | una herida de fuertes dolores.17 And you shall speak this word to them: Let my eyes shed tears throughout the night and day, and let them not cease. For the virgin daughter of my people has been crushed by a great affliction, by a very grievous wound.”
18 Salgo al campo: muertos a espada; | entro en la ciudad: desfallecidos de hambre; | tanto el profeta como el sacerdote | vagan sin sentido por el país.18 “If I go out into the fields: behold, those slain by the sword. And if I enter into the city: behold, those weakened by famine. Likewise, the prophet, too, and the priest, have gone into a land that they did not know.
19 ¿Por qué has rechazado del todo a Judá? | ¿Tiene asco tu garganta de Sión? | ¿Por qué nos has herido sin remedio? | Se espera la paz, y no hay bienestar, | al tiempo de la cura sucede la turbación.19 Could you have utterly cast out Judah? Or has your soul abhorred Zion? Then why have you struck us, so much so that there is no health for us? We have waited for peace, but there is nothing good, and for the time of healing, and behold, trouble.
20 Reconocemos, Señor, nuestra impiedad, | la culpa de nuestros padres, | porque pecamos contra ti.20 O Lord, we acknowledge our impieties, the iniquities of our fathers, that we have sinned against you.
21 No nos rechaces, por tu nombre, | no desprestigies tu trono glorioso; | recuerda y no rompas tu alianza con nosotros.21 For the sake of your name, do not give us over into disgrace. And do not dishonor in us the throne of your glory. Remember, do not make void, your covenant with us.
22 ¿Tienen los gentiles ídolos de la lluvia? | ¿Dan los cielos de por sí los aguaceros? | ¿No eres tú, Señor, Dios nuestro; | tú, que eres nuestra esperanza, | porque tú lo hiciste todo?22 Could any of the graven images of the Gentiles send rain? Or are the heavens able to give showers? Have we not hoped in you, the Lord our God? For you have made all these things.”
