1 El Señor le habló a Jeremías y le dijo:

1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,

2 «Ponte a la entrada del templo del Señor y anuncia allí este mensaje: Escuchen la palabra del Señor, todos los de Judá que entran por estas puertas para adorarlo.

2 “Stand in the gate of Yahweh’s house, and proclaim this word there, and say, ‘Hear Yahweh’s word, all you of Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship Yahweh.’”

3 Así dice el Señor de los ejércitos, el Dios de Israel: Corrijan su conducta y sus acciones, y los dejaré seguir viviendo en este lugar.

3 Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says, “Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.

4 No confíen en palabras engañosas que dicen: “¡Este es el templo del Señor, el templo del Señor, el templo del Señor!”.

4 Don’t trust in lying words, saying, ‘Yahweh’s temple, Yahweh’s temple, Yahweh’s temple, are these.’

5 Si de verdad corrigen su conducta y sus acciones, si de verdad hacen justicia entre una persona y su prójimo,

5 For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, if you thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor;

6 si no oprimen al extranjero, al huérfano ni a la viuda, si no matan aquí a los inocentes ni siguen a otros dioses para su propio daño,

6 if you don’t oppress the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow, and don’t shed innocent blood in this place, and don’t walk after other gods to your own hurt,

7 entonces los dejaré seguir viviendo en este lugar, en la tierra que di a sus antepasados desde hace tiempo y para siempre.

7 then I will cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forever more.

8 Pero ustedes confían en palabras engañosas que no sirven de nada.

8 Behold, you trust in lying words that can’t profit.

9 ¿Van a robar, matar, ser infieles a sus esposas, jurar en falso, quemar incienso a Baal y seguir a otros dioses que no conocen,

9 Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods that you have not known,

10 para luego venir ante mí en este templo que lleva mi nombre y decir: “Estamos a salvo”, y así seguir haciendo todas esas cosas repugnantes?

10 then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, ‘We are delivered,’ that you may do all these abominations?

11 ¿Acaso este templo que lleva mi nombre se ha convertido para ustedes en una cueva de ladrones? Sí, yo mismo lo he visto», dice el Señor.

11 Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I myself have seen it,” says Yahweh.

12 «Vayan a mi lugar de Silo, donde al principio hice habitar mi nombre, y vean lo que le hice por la maldad de mi pueblo Israel.

12 “But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.

13 Ustedes han hecho todas estas cosas», dice el Señor. «Les hablé una y otra vez, pero no escucharon; los llamé, pero no respondieron.

13 Now, because you have done all these works,” says Yahweh, “and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you didn’t hear; and I called you, but you didn’t answer;

14 Por eso haré con el templo que lleva mi nombre, en el que ustedes confían, y con el lugar que les di a ustedes y a sus antepasados, lo mismo que hice con Silo.

14 therefore I will do to the house which is called by my name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh.

15 Los expulsaré de mi presencia, como expulsé a todos sus hermanos, a todos los descendientes de Efraín.

15 I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, even the whole offspring of Ephraim.

16 Y tú, Jeremías, no ores por este pueblo; no eleves gritos ni oraciones por ellos, ni me supliques en su favor, porque no escucharé.

16 “Therefore don’t pray for this people. Don’t lift up a cry or prayer for them or make intercession to me; for I will not hear you.

17 ¿No ves lo que hacen en las ciudades de Judá y en las calles de Jerusalén?

17 Don’t you see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

18 Los niños recogen leña, los padres encienden el fuego y las mujeres amasan para hacer pasteles para la reina del cielo. Derraman ofrendas de vino a otros dioses para provocarme a ira.

18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.

19 ¿Acaso me provocan a mí?», dice el Señor. «¿No se provocan daño a sí mismos, para su propia vergüenza?

19 Do they provoke me to anger?” says Yahweh. “Don’t they provoke themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?”

20 Por eso dice el Señor Dios: Mi ira y mi furor se derramarán sobre este lugar, sobre las personas y los animales, sobre los árboles del campo y los frutos de la tierra. Arderán y no se apagarán».

20 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: “Behold, my anger and my wrath will be poured out on this place, on man, on animal, on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it will burn and will not be quenched.”

21 Así dice el Señor de los ejércitos, el Dios de Israel: «Añadan sus holocaustos a sus sacrificios y cómanse la carne.

21 Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices and eat meat.

22 Cuando saqué a sus antepasados de Egipto, no les hablé ni les di órdenes acerca de holocaustos y sacrificios de animales.

22 For I didn’t speak to your fathers or command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices;

23 Esta fue la orden que les di: “Escuchen mi voz; yo seré su Dios y ustedes serán mi pueblo. Sigan todo el camino que les he ordenado, para que les vaya bien”.

23 but this thing I commanded them, saying, ‘Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people. Walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.’

24 Pero no prestaron atención ni escucharon. Siguieron los pensamientos y el orgullo de su corazón malvado; retrocedieron en vez de avanzar.

24 But they didn’t listen or turn their ear, but walked in their own counsels and in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.

25 Desde que sus antepasados salieron de Egipto hasta hoy, les he enviado a mis siervos los profetas, día tras día y sin cesar.

25 Since the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt to this day, I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them.

26 Pero no prestaron atención ni quisieron escuchar. Se volvieron tercos e hicieron cosas peores que sus antepasados.

26 Yet they didn’t listen to me or incline their ear, but made their neck stiff. They did worse than their fathers.

27 Tú les dirás todas estas palabras, pero no te escucharán; los llamarás, pero no responderán.

27 “You shall speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you. You shall also call to them, but they will not answer you.

28 Les dirás: “Esta es la nación que no ha escuchado la voz de su Dios ni ha aceptado su enseñanza. La sinceridad ha muerto y ha desaparecido de sus labios”.

28 You shall tell them, ‘This is the nation that has not listened to Yahweh their God’s voice, nor received instruction. Truth has perished, and is cut off from their mouth.’

29 Córtate el cabello y tíralo, Jerusalén. Entona un lamento en las colinas despejadas, porque el Señor ha rechazado y abandonado a la generación que provocó su ira.

29 Cut off your hair, and throw it away, and take up a lamentation on the bare heights; for Yahweh has rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.

30 El pueblo de Judá ha hecho lo malo ante mis ojos», dice el Señor. «Han puesto sus imágenes repugnantes en el templo que lleva mi nombre y lo han contaminado.

30 “For the children of Judah have done that which is evil in my sight,” says Yahweh. “They have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it.

31 Construyeron el santuario en un lugar alto de Tofet, en el valle del hijo de Hinom, para quemar en el fuego a sus hijos e hijas. Eso nunca lo ordené ni pasó por mi mente.

31 They have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, which I didn’t command, nor did it come into my mind.

32 Por eso vienen días», dice el Señor, «en que ya no lo llamarán Tofet ni valle del hijo de Hinom, sino valle de la Muerte. Allí enterrarán a los muertos hasta que no quede espacio.

32 Therefore behold, the days come”, says Yahweh, “that it will no more be called ‘Topheth’ or ‘The valley of the son of Hinnom’, but ‘The valley of Slaughter’; for they will bury in Topheth until there is no place to bury.

33 Los cadáveres de este pueblo serán alimento para las aves del cielo y las fieras de la tierra, y no habrá quien las espante.

33 The dead bodies of this people will be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth. No one will frighten them away.

34 En las ciudades de Judá y las calles de Jerusalén pondré fin a las risas, a las voces de alegría y a las voces del novio y de la novia, porque la tierra quedará desolada».

34 Then I will cause to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for the land will become a waste.”

What the Fathers said

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).

Quotes verse 7:29 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book IV, Chapter XXXVI)
This is in accordance with what Jeremiah says, "The Lord hath rejected and cast off the nation which does these things; for the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the Lord." And again in like manner does Jeremiah speak: "I set watchmen over you; hearken to the sound of the trumpet; and they said, We will …
