Isaiah 22

KING JAMES BIBLEBIBLIA
1 The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops?1 Oráculo contra el valle de la Visión. ¿Qué tienes ahora, que has subido en pleno a las azoteas,
2 Thou that art full of stirs, a tumultuous city, a joyous city: thy slain men are not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle.2 de rumores henchida, ciudad alborotada, villa bullanguera? Tus caídos no son caídos a espada ni muertos en guerra.
3 All thy rulers are fled together, they are bound by the archers: all that are found in thee are bound together, which have fled from far.3 Todos sus jefes huyeron a una: del arco escapaban. Todos tus valientes fueron apresados a una: lejos huían.
4 Therefore said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly, labour not to comfort me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people.4 Por eso he dicho: «¡Apartaos de mí! Voy a llorar amargamente. No os empeñéis en consolarme por la devastación de la hija de mi pueblo».
5 For it is a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by the Lord GOD of hosts in the valley of vision, breaking down the walls, and of crying to the mountains.5 Porque es día de perturbación, de extravío y de aplastamiento para el Señor Yahveh Sebaot. En el valle de la Visión se zapa un muro y el grito de socorro llega a la montaña,
6 And Elam bare the quiver with chariots of men and horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.6 Elam lleva el carcaj, Aram monta a caballo, Quir desnuda el escudo.
7 And it shall come to pass, that thy choicest valleys shall be full of chariots, and the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate.7 Tus mejores valles se vieron llenos de carros, y los de a caballo formaron frente a la puerta.
8 And he discovered the covering of Judah, and thou didst look in that day to the armour of the house of the forest.8 Entonces cayó la defensa de Judá. Contemplasteis aquel día el arsenal de la Casa del Bosque.
9 Ye have seen also the breaches of the city of David, that they are many: and ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool.9 Y las brechas de la ciudad de David visteis que eran muchas, y reunisteis las aguas de la alberca inferior.
10 And ye have numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses have ye broken down to fortify the wall.10 Las casas de Jerusalén contasteis, y demolisteis casas para fortificar la muralla.
11 Ye made also a ditch between the two walls for the water of the old pool: but ye have not looked unto the maker thereof, neither had respect unto him that fashioned it long ago.11 Un estanque hicisteis entre ambos muros para las aguas de la alberca vieja; pero no os fijasteis en su Hacedor, al que desde antiguo lo ideó de lejos no le visteis.
12 And in that day did the Lord GOD of hosts call to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth:12 Llamaba el Señor Yahveh Sebaot aquel día a lloro y a lamento y a raparse y ceñirse de sayal,
13 And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die.13 mas lo que hubo fue jolgorio y alegría, matanza de bueyes y degüello de ovejas, comer carne y beber vino: «¡Comamos y bebamos, que mañana moriremos!»
14 And it was revealed in mine ears by the LORD of hosts, Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord GOD of hosts.14 Entonces me reveló al oído Yahveh Sebaot: «No será expiada esa culpa hasta que muráis» - ha dicho el Señor Yahveh Sebaot -.
15 Thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto Shebna, which is over the house, and say,15 Así dice el Señor Yahveh Sebaot: Preséntate al mayordomo, a Sebná, encargado del palacio,
16 What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee out a sepulchre here, as he that heweth him out a sepulchre on high, and that graveth an habitation for himself in a rock?16 el que labra en alto su tumba, el que se talla en la peña una morada: «¿Qué es tuyo aquí y a quién tienes aquí, que te has labrado aquí una tumba?»
17 Behold, the LORD will carry thee away with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover thee.17 He aquí que Yahveh te hace rebotar, hombre, y te vuelve a agarrar.
18 He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall be the shame of thy lord's house.18 Te enrolla en ovillo, como una pelota en tierra de amplios espacios. Allí morirás, y allí irán tus carrozas gloriosas, vergüenza del palacio de tu señor.
19 And I will drive thee from thy station, and from thy state shall he pull thee down.19 Te empujaré de tu peana y de tu pedestal te apearé.
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:20 Aquel día llamaré a mi siervo Elyaquim, hijo de Jilquías.
21 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.21 Le revestiré de tu túnica, con tu fajín le sujetaré, tu autoridad pondré en su mano, y será él un padre para los habitantes de Jerusalén y para la casa de Judá.
22 And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.22 Pondré la llave de la casa de David sobre su hombro; abrirá, y nadie cerrará, cerrará, y nadie abrirá.
23 And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father's house.23 Le hincaré como clavija en lugar seguro, y será trono de gloria para la casa de su padre.
24 And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups, even to all the vessels of flagons.24 Colgarán allí todo lo de valor de la casa de su padre - sus descendientes y su posteridad -, todo el ajuar menudo, todas las tazas y cántaros.
25 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off: for the LORD hath spoken it.25 Aquel día - oráculo de Yahveh Sebaot - se removerá la clavija hincada en sitio seguro, cederá y caerá, y se hará añicos el peso que sostenía, porque Yahveh ha hablado.
