Notes on this text (1)
- Same Septuagint text as Brenton, with modernised spelling.
1 For, behold, a righteous king shall reign, and princes shall govern with judgment.
1 HE aquí que en justicia reinará un rey, y príncipes presidirán en juicio.
2 And a man shall hide his words, and be hidden, as from rushing water, and shall appear in Zion as a rushing river, glorious in a thirsty land.
2 Y será aquel varón como escondedero contra el viento, y como acogida contra el turbión; como arroyos de aguas en tierra de sequedad, como sombra de gran peñasco en tierra calurosa.
3 And they shall no more trust in men, but they shall incline their ears to hear.
3 No se ofuscarán entonces los ojos de los que ven, y los oídos de los oyentes oirán atentos.
4 And the heart of the weak ones shall attend to hear, and the stammering tongues shall soon learn to speak peace.
4 Y el corazón de los necios entenderá para saber, y la lengua de los tartamudos será desenvuelta para hablar claramente.
5 And they shall no more at all tell a fool to rule, and thy servants shall no more at all say, Be silent.
5 El mezquino nunca más será llamado liberal, ni será dicho generoso el avariento.
6 For the fool shall speak foolish words, and his heart shall meditate vanities, and to perform lawless deeds and to speak error against the Lord, to scatter hungry souls, and he will cause the thirsty souls to be empty.
6 Porque el mezquino hablará mezquindades, y su corazón fabricará iniquidad, para hacer la impiedad y para hablar escarnio contra Jehová, dejando vacía el alma hambrienta, y quitando la bebida al sediento.
7 For the counsel of the wicked will devise iniquity, to destroy the poor with unjust words, and ruin the cause of the poor in judgment.
7 Cierto los avaros malas medidas [tienen]: él maquina pensamientos para enredar á los simples con palabras cautelosas, y para hablar en juicio [contra] el pobre.
8 But the godly have devised wise [measures], and this counsel shall stand.
8 Mas el liberal pensará liberalidades, y por liberalidades subirá.
9 Rise up, ye rich women, and hear my voice; ye confident daughters, hearken to my words.
9 Mujeres reposadas, levantaos, oid mi voz; confiadas, escuchad mi razón.
10 Remember for a full year in pain, yet with hope: the vintage has been cut off, it has ceased, it shall by no means come again.
10 Días y años tendréis espanto, oh confiadas; porque la vendimia faltará, y la cosecha no acudirá.
11 Be amazed, be pained, ye confident ones: strip you, bare yourselves, gird your loins;
11 Temblad, oh reposadas; turbaos, oh confiadas: despojaos, desnudaos, ceñid los lomos [con saco].
12 and beat on your breasts, because of the pleasant field, and the fruit of the vine.
12 Sobre los pechos lamentarán por los campos deleitosos, por la vid fértil.
13 [As for] the land of my people, the thorn and grass shall come upon [it], and joy shall be removed from every house.
13 Sobre la tierra de mi pueblo subirán espinas y cardos; y aun sobre todas las casas de placer en la ciudad de alegría.
14 [As for] the rich city, the houses are deserted; they shall abandon the wealth of the city, [and] the pleasant houses: and the villages shall be caves forever, the joy of wild asses, shepherds’ pastures;
14 Porque los palacios serán desiertos, la multitud de la ciudad cesará: las torres y fortalezas se tornarán cuevas para siempre, donde huelguen asnos monteses, y ganados hagan majada:
15 until the Spirit shall come upon you from on high, and Carmel shall be desert, and Carmel shall be counted for a forest.
15 Hasta que sobre nosotros sea derramado espíritu de lo alto, y el desierto se torne en campo labrado, y el campo labrado sea estimado por bosque.
16 Then judgment shall abide in the wilderness, and righteousness shall dwell in Carmel.
16 Y habitará el juicio en el desierto, y en el campo labrado asentará la justicia.
17 And the works of righteousness shall be peace; and righteousness shall ensure rest, and [the righteous] shall be confident forever.
17 Y el efecto de la justicia será paz; y la labor de justicia, reposo y seguridad para siempre.
18 And his people shall inhabit a city of peace, and dwell in [it] in confidence, and they shall rest with wealth.
18 Y mi pueblo habitará en morada de paz, y en habitaciones seguras, y en recreos de reposo.
19 And if the hail should come down, it shall not come upon you; and they that dwell in the forests shall be in confidence, as those in the plain country.
19 Y el granizo, cuando descendiere, [será] en los montes; y la ciudad será del todo abatida.
20 Blessed are they that sow by every water, where the ox and ass tread.
20 Dichosos vosotros los que sembráis sobre todas aguas, y metéis [en ellas] el pie de buey y de asno.

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).
Behold, a righteous king shall reign, and princes shall rule with judgment." And with regard to the foundation on which it shall be rebuilt, he says: "Behold, I will lay in order for thee a carbuncle stone, and sapphire for thy foundations; and I will lay thy ramparts with jasper, and thy gates with crystal, and thy wall with choice …
