WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 The vision of the desert. As though a whirlwind should pass through the desert, coming from a desert, [even] from such a land,
1 CARGA del desierto de la mar. Como los torbellinos que pasan por el desierto en la región del mediodía, [así] vienen de la tierra horrenda.
1 The burden of the wilderness of the sea. As whirlwinds in the South sweep through, it comes from the wilderness, from an awesome land.
2 [so] a fearful and a grievous vision was declared to me: he that is treacherous deals treacherously, the transgressor transgresses. The Elamites are upon me, and the ambassadors of the Persians come against me: now will I groan and comfort myself.
2 Visión dura me ha sido mostrada. El prevaricador prevarica, y el destructor destruye. Sube, Persa; cerca, Medo. Todo su gemido hice cesar.
2 A grievous vision is declared to me. The treacherous man deals treacherously, and the destroyer destroys. Go up, Elam; attack! I have stopped all of Media’s sighing.
3 Therefore are my loins filled with feebleness, and pangs have seized me as a travailing woman: I dealt wrongfully that I might not hear; I hastened that I might not see.
3 Por tanto mis lomos se han llenado de dolor; angustias se apoderaron de mí, como angustias de mujer de parto: agobiéme oyendo, y al ver heme espantado.
3 Therefore my thighs are filled with anguish. Pains have seized me, like the pains of a woman in labor. I am in so much pain that I can’t hear. I am so dismayed that I can’t see.
4 My heart wanders, and transgression overwhelms me; my soul is occupied with fear.
4 Pasmóse mi corazón, el horror me ha intimidado; la noche de mi deseo se me tornó en espanto.
4 My heart flutters. Horror has frightened me. The twilight that I desired has been turned into trembling for me.
5 Prepare the table, eat, drink: arise, ye princes, and prepare [your] shields.
5 Pon la mesa, mira del atalaya, come, bebe: levantaos, príncipes, ungid el escudo.
5 They prepare the table. They set the watch. They eat. They drink. Rise up, you princes, oil the shield!
6 For thus said the Lord to me, Go and station a watchman for thyself, and declare whatever thou shalt see.
6 Porque el Señor me dijo así: Ve, pon centinela que haga saber lo que viere.
6 For the Lord said to me, “Go, set a watchman. Let him declare what he sees.
7 And I saw two mounted horsemen, and a rider on an ass, and a rider on a camel.
7 Y vió un carro de un par de caballeros, un carro de asno, y un carro de camello. Luego miró muy más atentamente.
7 When he sees a troop, horsemen in pairs, a troop of donkeys, a troop of camels, he shall listen diligently with great attentiveness.”
8 Hearken with great attention, and call thou Urias to the watchtower: the Lord has spoken. I stood continually during the day, and I stood in the camp all the night:
8 Y gritó como un león: Señor, sobre la atalaya estoy yo continuamente de día, y las noches enteras sobre mi guarda:
8 He cried like a lion: “Lord, I stand continually on the watchtower in the daytime, and every night I stay at my post.
9 and, behold, he comes riding in a chariot and pair: and he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all her images and her idols have been crushed to the ground.
9 Y he aquí este carro de hombres viene, un par de caballeros. Después habló, y dijo: Cayó, cayó Babilonia; y todos los ídolos de sus dioses quebrantó en tierra.
9 Behold, here comes a troop of men, horsemen in pairs.” He answered, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the engraved images of her gods are broken to the ground.
10 Hear, ye that are left, and ye that are in pain, hear what things I have heard of the Lord of hosts [which] the God of Israel has declared to us.
10 Trilla mía, y paja de mi era: os he dicho lo que oí de Jehová de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel.
10 You are my threshing, and the grain of my floor!” That which I have heard from Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, I have declared to you.
11 The vision of Edom. Call to me out of Seir; guard ye the bulwarks.
11 Carga de Duma. Danme voces de Seir: Guarda, ¿qué de la noche? Guarda, ¿qué de la noche?
11 The burden of Dumah. One calls to me out of Seir, “Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?”
12 I watch in the morning and the night: if thou wouldest inquire, inquire, and dwell by me.
12 El guarda respondió: La mañana viene, y después la noche: si preguntareis, preguntad; volved, venid.
12 The watchman said, “The morning comes, and also the night. If you will inquire, inquire. Come back again.”
13 Thou mayest lodge in the forest in the evening, or in the way of Dedan.
13 Carga sobre Arabia. En el monte tendréis la noche en Arabia, oh caminantes de Dedanim.
13 The burden on Arabia. You will lodge in the thickets in Arabia, you caravans of Dedanites.
14 Ye that dwell in the country of Tema, bring water to meet him that is thirsty;
14 Salid á encontrar al sediento; llevadle aguas, moradores de tierra de Tema, socorred con su pan al que huye.
14 They brought water to him who was thirsty. The inhabitants of the land of Tema met the fugitives with their bread.
15 meet the fugitives with bread, because of the multitude of the slain, and because of the multitude of them that lose their way, and because of the multitude of swords, and because of the multitude of bent bows, and because of the multitude of them that have fallen in war.
15 Porque de la presencia de las espadas huyen, de la presencia de la espada desnuda, de la presencia del arco entesado, de la presencia del peso de la batalla.
15 For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, from the bent bow, and from the heat of battle.
16 For thus said the Lord to me, Yet a year, as the year of a hireling, [and] the glory of the sons of Kedar shall fail:
16 Porque así me ha dicho Jehová: De aquí á un año, semejante á años de mozo de soldada, toda la gloria de Cedar será deshecha;
16 For the Lord said to me, “Within a year, as a worker bound by contract would count it, all the glory of Kedar will fail,
17 and the remnant of the strong bows of the sons of Kedar shall be small: for the Lord God of Israel has spoken [it].
17 Y las reliquias del número de los valientes flecheros, hijos de Cedar, serán apocadas: porque Jehová Dios de Israel lo ha dicho.
17 and the residue of the number of the archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, will be few; for Yahweh, the God of Israel, has spoken it.”
