Isaiah 5

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	BIBLIA
1 I will sing to my beloved the canticle of my paternal cousin, about his vineyard. A vineyard was made for my beloved, at the horn in the son of oil.	1 Voy a cantar a mi amigo la canción de su amor por su viña. Una viña tenía mi amigo en un fértil otero.
2 And he fenced it in, and he picked the stones out of it, and he planted it with the best vines, and he built a tower in the middle of it, and he set up a winepress within it. And he expected it to produce grapes, but it produced wild vines.	2 La cavó y despedregó, y la plantó de cepa exquisita. Edificó una torre en medio de ella, y además excavó en ella un lagar. Y esperó que diese uvas, pero dio agraces.
3 Now then, inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah: judge between me and my vineyard.	3 Ahora, pues, habitantes de Jerusalén y hombres de Judá, venid a juzgar entre mi viña y yo:
4 What more should I have done for my vineyard that I did not do for it? Should I not have expected it to produce grapes, though it produced wild vines?	4 ¿Qué más se puede hacer ya a mi viña, que no se lo haya hecho yo? Yo esperaba que diese uvas. ¿Por qué ha dado agraces?
5 And now, I will reveal to you what I will do to my vineyard. I will take away its fence, and it will be plundered. I will pull down its wall, and it will be trampled.	5 Ahora, pues, voy a haceros saber, lo que hago yo a mi viña: quitar su seto, y será quemada; desportillar su cerca, y será pisoteada.
6 And I will make it desolate. It will not be pruned, and it will not be dug. And briers and thorns will rise up. And I will command the clouds not to rain upon it.	6 Haré de ella un erial que ni se pode ni se escarde. crecerá la zarza y el espino, y a las nubes prohibiré llover sobre ella.
7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel. And the man of Judah is his delightful seedling. And I expected that he would do judgment, and behold iniquity, and that he would do justice, and behold an outcry.	7 Pues bien, viña de Yahveh Sebaot es la Casa de Israel, y los hombres de Judá son su plantío exquisito. Esperaba de ellos justicia, y hay iniquidad; honradez, y hay alaridos.
8 Woe to you who join house to house, and who combine field to field, even to the limits of the place! Do you intend to live alone in the midst of the earth?	8 ¡Ay, los que juntáis casa con casa, y campo a campo anexionáis, hasta ocupar todo el sitio y quedaros solos en medio del país!
9 These things are in my ears, says the Lord of hosts. Otherwise, many houses, great and beautiful, will become desolate, without an inhabitant.	9 Así ha jurado a mis oídos Yahveh Sebaot: «¡Han de quedar desiertas muchas casas; grandes y hermosas, pero sin moradores!
10 Then ten acres of vineyard will produce one small bottle of wine, and thirty measures of seed will produce three measures of grain.	10 Porque diez yugadas de viña darán sólo una medida, y una carga de simiente producirá una medida».
11 Woe to you who rise up in the morning to pursue drunkenness, and to drink even until evening, so as to be inflamed with wine.	11 ¡Ay, los que despertando por la mañana andan tras el licor; los que trasnochan, encandilados por el vino!
12 Harp and lyre and timbrel and pipe, as well as wine, are at your feasts. But you do not respect the work of the Lord, nor do you consider the works of his hands.	12 Sólo hay arpas y cítaras, pandero y flauta en sus libaciones, y no contemplan la obra de Yahveh, no ven la acción de sus manos.
13 Because of this, my people have been led away as captives, for they did not have knowledge, and their nobles have passed away from famine, and their multitudes have dried up from thirst.	13 Por eso fue deportado mi pueblo sin sentirlo, sus notables estaban muertos de hambre, y su plebe se resecaba de sed.
14 For this reason, Hell has expanded its soul, and has opened its mouth without any limits. And their strong ones, and their people, and their exalted and glorious ones will descend into it.	14 Por eso ensanchó el seol su seno dilató su boca sin medida, y a él baja su nobleza y su plebe y su turba gozosa.
15 And man will be bowed down, and man will be humbled, and the eyes of the exalted will be brought low.	15 Se humilla el hombre, se abaja el varón, los ojos de los altivos son abajados;
16 And the Lord of hosts will be exalted in judgment, and the holy God will be sanctified in justice.	16 es ensalzado Yahveh Sebaot en jucio, el Dios Santo muestra su santidad por su justicia.
17 And the lambs will pasture in proper order, and new arrivals will eat from the deserts turned into fertile lands.	17 Pacerán los corderos como en su pastizal, y entre las ruinas gordos cabritos ramonearán.
18 Woe to you who draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and who draw sin as if with the rope of a cart,	18 ¡Ay, los que arrastran la culpa con coyundas de engaños y el pecado como con bridas de novilla!
19 and who say: “Let him hurry, and let his work arrive soon, so that we may see it. And let the plan of the Holy One of Israel approach and arrive, so that we may know it.”	19 Los que dicen: «¡Listo, apresure su acción, de modo que la veamos. Acérquese y venga el plan del Santo de Israel, y que lo sepamos!»
20 Woe to you who call evil good, and good evil; who substitute darkness for light, and light for darkness; who exchange bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!	20 ¡Ay, los que llaman al mal bien, y al bien mal; que dan oscuridad por luz, y luz por oscuridad; que dan amargo por dulce, y dulce por amargo!
21 Woe to you who are wise in your own eyes, and prudent in your own sight!	21 ¡Ay, los sabios a sus propios ojos, y para sí mismos discretos!
22 Woe to you who are powerful at drinking wine, who are strong men in contriving inebriation!	22 ¡Ay, los campeones en beber vino, los valientes para escanciar licor,
23 For you justify an impious man in exchange for bribes, and you carry away the justice of a just man from him.	23 los que absuelven al malo por soborno y quitan al justo su derecho.
24 Because of this, as the tongue of fire devours stubble, and as the heat of a flame burns it completely, so will their root become like glowing embers, and so will their offshoot ascend like dust. For they have cast aside the law of the Lord of hosts, and they have blasphemed the eloquence of the Holy One of Israel.	24 Tal devora las espigas una lengua de fuego y el heno en llamas se derrumba: la raíz de ellos será como podre, y su flor subirá como tamo. Pues recusaron la enseñanza de Yahveh Sebaot y despreciaron el dicho del Santo de Israel.
25 For this reason, the fury of the Lord has been enraged against his people, and he has extended his hand over them, and he has struck them. And the mountains were disturbed. And their carcasses became like dung in the midst of the streets. After all this, his fury was not turned away; instead, his hand was still extended.	25 Por eso se ha encendido la ira de Yahveh contra su pueblo, extendió su mano sobre él y le golpeó. Y mató a los príncipes: sus cadáveres yacían como basura en medio de las calles. Con todo eso, no se ha calmado su ira, y aún sigue extendida su mano.
26 And he will lift up a sign to nations far away, and he will whistle to them from the ends of the earth. And behold, they will rush forward speedily.	26 Iza bandera a un pueblo desde lejos y le silba desde los confines de la tierra: vedlo aquí, rápido, viene ligero.
27 There is no one weak or struggling among them. They will not become drowsy, and they will not sleep. Neither will the belt around their waist be loosened, nor the laces of their boots be broken.	27 No hay en él quien se canse y tropiece, quien se duerma y se amodorre; nadie se suelta el cinturón de los lomos, ni se rompe la correa de su calzado.
28 Their arrows are sharp, and all their bows are taut. The hoofs of their horses are like flint, and their wheels are like the force of a tempest.	28 Sus saetas son agudas y todos sus arcos están tensos. Los cascos de sus caballos semejan pedernal y sus ruedas, torbellino.
29 Their roaring is like the lion; they will roar like young lions. They will both roar and seize their prey. And they will wrap themselves around it, and there will be no one who can rescue it.	29 Tiene un rugido como de leona, ruge como los cachorros, brama y agarra la presa, la arrebata, y no hay quien la libre.
30 And in that day, they will make a noise over it, like the sound of the sea. We will gaze out toward the land, and behold, the darkness of the tribulation, and even the light has been darkened by its gloom.	30 Bramará contra él aquel día como el bramido del mar, y oteará la tierra, y habrá densa oscuridad, pues la luz se habrá oscurecido en la espesa tiniebla.
