WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 And these are the words of the book which Jeremiah sent from Jerusalem to the elders of the captivity, and to the priests, and to the false prophets, even an epistle to Babylon for the captivity, and to all the people
1 Y ACONTECIÓ en el cuarto año de Joacim hijo de Josías, rey de Judá, que fué esta palabra á Jeremías, de Jehová, diciendo:
1 In the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
2 (after the departure of Jechoniah the king and the queen, and the eunuchs, and every freeman, and bondman, and artificer, out of Jerusalem);
2 Tómate un rollo de libro, y escribe en él todas las palabras que te he hablado contra Israel y contra Judá, y contra todas las gentes, desde el día que [comencé] á hablarte, desde los días de Josías hasta hoy.
2 “Take a scroll of a book, and write in it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel, against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke to you, from the days of Josiah even to this day.
3 by the hand of Elasah son of Shaphan, and Gemariah son of Hilkiah (whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Babylon to Babylon), saying,
3 Quizá oirá la casa de Judá todo el mal que yo pienso hacerles, para volverse cada uno de su mal camino, y yo perdonaré su maldad y su pecado.
3 It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I intend to do to them, that they may each return from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.”
4 Thus said the Lord God of Israel concerning the captivity which I caused to be carried away from Jerusalem;
4 Y llamó Jeremías á Baruch hijo de Nerías, y escribió Baruch de boca de Jeremías, en un rollo de libro, todas las palabras que Jehová le había hablado.
4 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all Yahweh’s words, which he had spoken to him, on a scroll of a book.
5 Build ye houses, and inhabit [them]; and plant gardens, and eat the fruits thereof;
5 Después mandó Jeremías á Baruch, diciendo: Yo estoy preso, no puedo entrar en la casa de Jehová:
5 Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, “I am restricted. I can’t go into Yahweh’s house.
6 and take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, and be multiplied, and be not diminished.
6 Entra tú pues, y lee de este rollo que escribiste de mi boca, las palabras de Jehová en oídos del pueblo, en la casa de Jehová, el día del ayuno; y las leerás también en oídos de todo Judá que vienen de sus ciudades.
6 Therefore you go, and read from the scroll which you have written from my mouth, Yahweh’s words, in the ears of the people in Yahweh’s house on the fast day. Also you shall read them in the ears of all Judah who come out of their cities.
7 And seek the peace of the land into which I have carried you captive, and ye shall pray to the Lord for the people: for in its peace ye shall [have] peace.
7 Quizá caerá oración de ellos en la presencia de Jehová, y tornaráse cada uno de su mal camino; porque grande es el furor y la ira que ha expresado Jehová contra este pueblo.
7 It may be they will present their supplication before Yahweh, and will each return from his evil way; for Yahweh has pronounced great anger and wrath against this people.”
8 For thus saith the Lord; Let not the false prophets that are among you persuade you, and let not your diviners persuade you, and hearken not to your dreams which ye dream.
8 Y Baruch hijo de Nerías hizo conforme á todas las cosas que le mandó Jeremías profeta, leyendo en el libro las palabras de Jehová en la casa de Jehová.
8 Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book Yahweh’s words in Yahweh’s house.
9 For they prophesy to you unrighteous [words] in my name; and I sent them not.
9 Y aconteció en el año quinto de Joacim hijo de Josías, rey de Judá, en el mes noveno, que promulgaron ayuno en la presencia de Jehová, á todo el pueblo de Jerusalem, y á todo el pueblo que venía de las ciudades de Judá á Jerusalem.
9 Now in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem, proclaimed a fast before Yahweh.
10 For thus said the Lord; When seventy years shall be on the point of being accomplished at Babylon, I will visit you, and will confirm my words to you, to bring back your people to this place.
10 Y Baruch leyó en el libro las palabras de Jeremías en la casa de Jehová, en la cámara de Gemarías hijo de Saphán escriba, en el atrio de arriba, á la entrada de la puerta nueva de la casa de Jehová, en oídos del pueblo.
10 Then Baruch read the words of Jeremiah from the book in Yahweh’s house, in the room of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entry of the new gate of Yahweh’s house, in the ears of all the people.
11 And I will devise for you a device of peace, and not evil, to bestow upon you these [good things].
11 Y Michêas hijo de Gemarías, hijo de Saphán, habiendo oído del libro todas las palabras de Jehová,
11 When Micaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all Yahweh’s words,
12 And do ye pray to me, and I will hearken to you: and do ye earnestly seek me, and ye shall find me;
12 Descendió á la casa del rey, á la cámara del secretario, y he aquí que todos los príncipes estaban allí sentados, [á saber]: Elisama secretario, y Delaías hijo de Semeías, y Elnathán hijo de Achbor, y Gemarías hijo de Saphán, y Sedechîas hijo de Ananías, y todos los príncipes.
12 he went down into the king’s house, into the scribe’s room; and behold, all the princes were sitting there, Elishama the scribe, Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, Elnathan the son of Achbor, Gemariah the son of Shaphan, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
13 for ye shall seek me with your whole heart.
13 Y contóles Michêas todas las palabras que había oído leyendo Baruch en el libro en oídos del pueblo.
13 Then Micaiah declared to them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
14 And I will appear to you:
14 Entonces enviaron todos los príncipes á Jehudí hijo de Nethanías, hijo de Selemías, hijo de Chusi, para que dijese á Baruch: Toma el rollo en que leíste á oídos del pueblo, y ven. Y Baruch, hijo de Nerías, tomó el rollo en su mano, y vino á ellos.
14 Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, “Take in your hand the scroll in which you have read in the ears of the people, and come.” So Baruch the son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand, and came to them.
15 whereas ye said, The Lord has appointed for us prophets in Babylon:
15 Y dijéronle: Siéntate ahora, y léelo en nuestros oídos. Y leyó Baruch en sus oídos. 16 Y fué que, como oyeron todas aquellas palabras, cada uno se volvió espantado á su compañero, y dijeron á Baruch: Sin duda contaremos al rey todas estas palabras. 17 Preguntaron luego á Baruch, diciendo: Cuéntanos ahora cómo escribiste de boca de Jeremías todas estas palabras. 18 Y Baruch les dijo: El me dictaba de su boca todas estas palabras, y yo escribía con tinta en el libro. 19 Entonces dijeron los príncipes á Baruch: Ve, y escóndete tú y Jeremías, y nadie sepa dónde estáis. 20 Y entraron al rey al atrio, habiendo depositado el rollo en la cámara de Elisama secretario; y contaron en los oídos del rey todas estas palabras.
15 They said to him, “Sit down now, and read it in our hearing.” So Baruch read it in their hearing. 16 Now when they had heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said to Baruch, “We will surely tell the king of all these words.” 17 They asked Baruch, saying, “Tell us now, how did you write all these words at his mouth?” 18 Then Baruch answered them, “He dictated all these words to me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.” 19 Then the princes said to Baruch, “You and Jeremiah go hide. Don’t let anyone know where you are.” 20 They went in to the king into the court, but they had laid up the scroll in the room of Elishama the scribe. Then they told all the words in the hearing of the king.
21 Thus saith the Lord concerning Ahab, and concerning Zedekiah; Behold, I [will] deliver them into the hands of the king of Babylon; and he shall smite them in your sight.
21 Y envió el rey á Jehudí á que tomase el rollo, el cual lo tomó de la cámara de Elisama secretario, y leyó en él Jehudí en oídos del rey, y en oídos de todos los príncipes que junto al rey estaban.
21 So the king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and he took it out of the room of Elishama the scribe. Jehudi read it in the hearing of the king, and in the hearing of all the princes who stood beside the king.
22 And they shall make of them a curse in all the captivity of Judah in Babylon, saying, The Lord do to thee as he did to Zedekiah, and as he did to Ahab, whom the king of Babylon fried in the fire;
22 Y el rey estaba en la casa de invierno en el mes noveno, y había un brasero ardiendo delante de él;
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter house in the ninth month, and there was a fire in the brazier burning before him.
23 because of the iniquity which they wrought in Israel, and [because] they committed adultery with the wives of their fellow citizens, and spoke a word in my name, which I did not command them [to speak], and I am witness, saith the Lord.
23 Y fué que, como Jehudí hubo leído tres ó cuatro planas, rasgólo con un cuchillo de escribanía, y echólo en el fuego que había en el brasero, hasta que todo el rollo se consumió sobre el fuego que en el brasero había.
23 When Jehudi had read three or four columns, the king cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was in the brazier, until all the scroll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier.
24 And to Shemaiah the Nehelamite thou shalt say,
24 Y no tuvieron temor, ni rasgaron sus vestidos, el rey y todos sus siervos que oyeron todas estas palabras.
24 The king and his servants who heard all these words were not afraid, and didn’t tear their garments.
25 I sent thee not in my name: and to Zephaniah the priest the son of Maaseiah say thou,
25 Y aunque Elnathán y Delaías y Gemarías rogaron al rey que no quemase aquel rollo, no los quiso oir:
25 Moreover Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the scroll; but he would not listen to them.
26 The Lord has made thee priest in the place of Jehoiada the priest, to be ruler in the house of the Lord over every prophet, and to every madman, and thou shalt put them in prison, and into the dungeon.
26 Antes mandó el rey á Jerameel hijo de Amelech, y á Seraías hijo de Azriel, y á Selemías hijo de Abdeel, que prendiesen á Baruch el escribiente y á Jeremías profeta; mas Jehová los escondió.
26 The king commanded Jerahmeel the king’s son, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to arrest Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but Yahweh hid them.
27 And now wherefore have ye reviled together Jeremiah of Anathoth, who prophesied to you?
27 Y fué palabra de Jehová á Jeremías, después que el rey quemó el rollo, las palabras que Baruch había escrito de boca de Jeremías, diciendo:
27 Then Yahweh’s word came to Jeremiah, after the king had burned the scroll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
28 Did he not send for this purpose? for in the course of this month he sent to you to Babylon, saying, It is far off: build ye houses, and inhabit [them]; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
28 Vuelve á tomar otro rollo, y escribe en él todas las palabras primeras, que estaban en el primer rollo que quemó Joacim, rey de Judá.
28 “Take again another scroll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first scroll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah has burned.
29 And Zephaniah read the book in the ears of Jeremiah.
29 Y dirás á Joacim rey de Judá: Así ha dicho Jehová: Tú quemaste este rollo, diciendo: ¿Por qué escribiste en él, diciendo: De cierto vendrá el rey de Babilonia, y destruirá esta tierra, y hará que no queden en ella hombres ni animales?
29 Concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, ‘Yahweh says: “You have burned this scroll, saying, ‘Why have you written therein, saying, “The king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will cause to cease from there man and animal”?’”
30 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,
30 Por tanto, así ha dicho Jehová, en orden á Joacim rey de Judá: No tendrá quien se siente sobre el trono de David; y su cuerpo será echado al calor del día y al hielo de la noche.
30 Therefore Yahweh says concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: “He will have no one to sit on David’s throne. His dead body will be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
31 Send to the captivity, saying, Thus saith the Lord concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite, Since Shemaiah has prophesied to you, and I sent him not, and he has made you to trust in iniquity,
31 Y visitaré sobre él, y sobre su simiente, y sobre sus siervos, su maldad; y traeré sobre ellos, y sobre los moradores de Jerusalem, y sobre los varones de Judá, todo el mal que les he dicho y no escucharon.
31 I will punish him, his offspring, and his servants for their iniquity. I will bring on them, on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and on the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them, but they didn’t listen.”’”
32 therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will visit Shemaiah, and his family: and there shall not be a man of them in the midst of you to see the good which I will do to you: they shall not see [it].
32 Y tomó Jeremías otro rollo, y diólo á Baruch hijo de Nerías escriba; y escribió en él de boca de Jeremías todas las palabras del libro que quemó en el fuego Joacim rey de Judá; y aun fueron añadidas sobre ellas muchas otras palabras semejantes.
32 Then Jeremiah took another scroll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and many similar words were added to them.
