Isaías 64

EL LIBRO DEL PUEBLO DE DIOS	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 como el fuego enciende un matorral, como el fuego hace hervir el agua! Así manifestarías tu Nombre a tus adversarios y las naciones temblarían ante ti.	1 I wish that you would rend the heavens, and then descend! The mountains would flow away before your face.
2 Cuando hiciste portentos inesperados,	2 They would melt, as if thoroughly burned by fire. The waters would burn with fire, so that your name might be made known to your enemies, so that the nations would be stirred up before your face.
3 que nadie había escuchado jamás, ningún oído oyó, ningún ojo vio a otro Dios, fuera de ti, que hiciera tales cosas por los que esperan en él.	3 When you will perform miracles, we will not be able to withstand them. You descended, and the mountains flowed away before your presence.
4 Tú vas al encuentro de los que practican la justicia y se acuerdan de tus caminos Tú estás irritado, y nosotros hemos pecado, desde siempre fuimos rebeldes contra ti.	4 From ages past, they have not heard it, and they have not perceived it with the ears. Apart from you, O God, the eye has not seen what you have prepared for those who await you.
5 Nos hemos convertido en una cosa impura, toda nuestra justicia es como un trapo sucio. Nos hemos marchitado como el follaje y nuestras culpas nos arrastran como el viento.	5 You have met with those who rejoice in doing justice. By your ways, they will remember you. Behold, you have been angry, for we have sinned. In this, we have continued, but we will be saved.
6 No hay nadie que invoque tu Nombre, nadie que despierte para aferrarse a ti, porque tú nos ocultaste tu rostro y nos pusiste a merced de nuestras culpas.	6 And we have all become like the unclean. And all our justices are like a rag of menstruation. And we have all fallen away, like a leaf. And our iniquities have carried us away, like the wind.
7 Pero tú, Señor, eres nuestro padre, nosotros somos la arcilla, y tú, nuestro alfarero: ¡todos somos la obra de tus manos!	7 There is no one who calls upon your name, who rises up and holds fast to you. You have concealed your face from us, and you have crushed us with the hand of our own iniquity.
8 No te irrites, Señor, hasta el exceso, no te acuerdes para siempre de las culpas. ¡Mira que todos nosotros somos tu Pueblo!	8 And now, O Lord, you are our Father, yet truly, we are clay. And you are our Maker, and we are all the works of your hands.
9 Tus santas ciudades han quedado desiertas: Sión se ha convertido en un desierto, Jerusalén, en una desolación.	9 Do not be so angry, O Lord, and no longer call to mind our iniquity. Behold, consider that we are all your people.
10 Nuestra Casa santa y gloriosa, donde te alababan nuestros padres, ha sido presa de las llamas, y todo lo que teníamos de precioso se ha convertido en una ruina.	10 The city of your sanctuary has become a desert. Zion has become a desert. Jerusalem is desolate.
11 Ante esto, ¿vas a permanecer insensible, Señor? ¿Te quedarás callado y nos afligirás hasta el fin?	11 The house of our sanctification and of our glory, where our fathers praised you, has been completely consumed by fire, and all our admirable things have been turned into ruins.
	12 Should you restrain yourself, O Lord, concerning these things? Should you remain silent, and afflict us vehemently?
