1 El Señor me dijo: «Aunque Moisés y Samuel se presentaran ante mí, no querría favorecer a este pueblo. Expúlsalos de mi presencia; que se vayan.
1 Then Yahweh said to me, “Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind would not turn toward this people. Cast them out of my sight, and let them go out!
2 Si te preguntan: “¿Adónde iremos?”, diles: Así dice el Señor: Los destinados a la muerte, a la muerte; los destinados a la espada, a la espada; los destinados al hambre, al hambre; y los destinados al cautiverio, al cautiverio.
2 It will happen when they ask you, ‘Where shall we go out?’ then you shall tell them, ‘Yahweh says: “Such as are for death, to death; such as are for the sword, to the sword; such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for captivity, to captivity.”’
3 Les enviaré cuatro clases de males», dice el Señor: «la espada para matarlos, los perros para arrastrar sus cadáveres, y las aves del cielo y las fieras de la tierra para devorarlos y destruirlos.
3 “I will appoint over them four kinds,” says Yahweh: “the sword to kill, the dogs to tear, the birds of the sky, and the animals of the earth, to devour and to destroy.
4 Haré que sean motivo de horror para todos los reinos de la tierra por lo que Manasés, hijo de Ezequías, rey de Judá, hizo en Jerusalén.
4 I will cause them to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
5 ¿Quién tendrá compasión de ti, Jerusalén? ¿Quién llorará por ti? ¿Quién se desviará de su camino para preguntar cómo estás?
5 For who will have pity on you, Jerusalem? Who will mourn you? Who will come to ask of your welfare?
6 Tú me has abandonado», dice el Señor. «Has retrocedido. Por eso extiendo mi mano contra ti para destruirte. Estoy cansado de cambiar mi propósito.
6 You have rejected me,” says Yahweh. “You have gone backward. Therefore I have stretched out my hand against you and destroyed you. I am weary of showing compassion.
7 Los he barrido con un viento en los lugares públicos de la tierra. Les he quitado sus hijos y he destruido a mi pueblo, pero no han cambiado de conducta.
7 I have winnowed them with a fan in the gates of the land. I have bereaved them of children. I have destroyed my people. They didn’t return from their ways.
8 He hecho que sus viudas sean más numerosas que la arena del mar. Al mediodía he enviado al destructor contra la madre y los jóvenes, haciendo que el dolor y el miedo caigan de repente sobre ella.
8 Their widows are increased more than the sand of the seas. I have brought on them against the mother of the young men a destroyer at noonday. I have caused anguish and terrors to fall on her suddenly.
9 La madre de siete hijos ya no tiene fuerzas; su espíritu se ha ido. Su sol se ha puesto cuando aún es de día; ha quedado avergonzada y vencida. A los que queden los entregaré a la espada ante sus enemigos», dice el Señor.
9 She who has borne seven languishes. She has given up the spirit. Her sun has gone down while it was yet day. She has been disappointed and confounded. I will deliver their residue to the sword before their enemies,” says Yahweh.
10 ¡Ay de mí, madre mía! Me diste a luz para ser motivo de peleas y discusiones en toda esta tierra. No he prestado dinero ni le debo a nadie, pero todos me maldicen.
10 Woe is me, my mother, that you have borne me, a man of strife, and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have not lent, neither have men lent to me; yet every one of them curses me.
11 El Señor dijo: «Sin duda, te libraré para tu bien. Haré que el enemigo te suplique en el tiempo de desgracia y angustia.
11 Yahweh said, “Most certainly I will strengthen you for good. Most certainly I will cause the enemy to make supplication to you in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
12 ¿Puede romperse el hierro, el hierro del norte y el bronce?
12 Can one break iron, even iron from the north, and bronze?
13 Daré tus riquezas y tus provisiones a tus atacantes como botín, sin pago alguno, por todos tus pecados en toda tu tierra.
13 I will give your substance and your treasures for a plunder without price, and that for all your sins, even in all your borders.
14 Esas riquezas irán con tus enemigos a una tierra que no conoces, porque mi ira es un fuego que arderá sobre ustedes».
14 I will make them to pass with your enemies into a land which you don’t know; for a fire is kindled in my anger, which will burn on you.”
15 Señor, tú lo sabes. Acuérdate de mí, ven en mi ayuda y da su merecido a los que me atacan. No me quites la vida, pues eres lento para enojarte. Mira cómo he sufrido vergüenza por causa tuya, de parte de todos los que desprecian tu palabra.
15 Yahweh, you know. Remember me, visit me, and avenge me of my persecutors. You are patient, so don’t take me away. Know that for your sake I have suffered reproach.
16 Pero tu palabra es mi alegría y llena de gozo mi corazón, porque llevo tu nombre, Señor Dios de los ejércitos.
16 Your words were found, and I ate them. Your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart, for I am called by your name, Yahweh, God of Armies.
17 No me senté con los que se alegraban ni compartí su alegría. Me quedé solo por tu mano, porque me has llenado de ira.
17 I didn’t sit in the assembly of those who make merry and rejoice. I sat alone because of your hand, for you have filled me with indignation.
18 ¿Por qué mi dolor no termina y mi herida no tiene esperanza de sanar? ¡Ay de mí! Para mí eres como un arroyo que ofrece falsas esperanzas, como aguas en las que no se puede confiar.
18 Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuses to be healed? Will you indeed be to me as a deceitful brook, like waters that fail?
19 Por eso dice el Señor: «Si vuelves, te dejaré estar de nuevo ante mí. Si dices lo que tiene valor y no lo que no vale nada, serás como mi boca. Que ellos vuelvan a ti; tú no vuelvas a ellos.
19 Therefore Yahweh says, “If you return, then I will bring you again, that you may stand before me; and if you take out the precious from the vile, you will be as my mouth. They will return to you, but you will not return to them.
20 Te haré un fuerte muro de bronce ante este pueblo. Lucharán contra ti, pero no te vencerán, porque estoy contigo para protegerte», dice el Señor.
20 I will make you to this people a fortified bronze wall. They will fight against you, but they will not prevail against you; for I am with you to save you and to deliver you,” says Yahweh.
21 «Te protegeré de las manos de los malvados y te salvaré de las manos de los crueles».
21 “I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the terrible.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… Jerusalem: "She that hath born [seven] languisheth; her soul hath become weary; her sun hath gone down while it was yet noon; she hath been confounded, and suffered reproach: the remainder of them will I give to the sword in the sight of their enemies."
For ye, who "take forth the precious from the vile," have been made the mouth of God, through which He saith, "Let the waters bring forth," not the living creature which the earth bringeth forth, but the moving creature having life, and the fowls that fly above the earth.

Hear, for example, what God saith unto this last, "Pray not thou for this people, for I will not hear thee." And why marvellest thou if I hear not thee?
