WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 [][]How does the city that was filled with people sit solitary! She is become as a widow: She that was magnified among the nations, [And] princess among the provinces, Has become tributary.
1 ¡CÓMO está sentada sola la ciudad populosa! La grande entre las naciones se ha vuelto como viuda, la señora de provincias es hecha tributaria.
1 How the city sits solitary, that was full of people! She has become as a widow, who was great among the nations! She who was a princess among the provinces has become a slave!
2 She weeps sore in the night, And her tears are on her cheeks; And there is none of all her lovers to comfort her: All that were her friends have dealt deceitfully with her, They are become her enemies.
2 Amargamente llora en la noche, y sus lágrimas en sus mejillas; no tiene quien la consuele de todos sus amadores: todos sus amigos le faltaron, volviéronsele enemigos.
2 She weeps bitterly in the night. Her tears are on her cheeks. Among all her lovers she has no one to comfort her. All her friends have dealt treacherously with her. They have become her enemies.
3 Judea is gone into captivity by reason of her affliction, And by reason of the abundance of her servitude: She dwells among the nations, She has not found rest: All her pursuers have overtaken her between her oppressors.
3 Fuése Judá, á causa de la aflicción, y de la grandeza de servidumbre; ella moró entre las gentes, y no halló descanso: todos sus perseguidores la alcanzaron entre estrechuras.
3 Judah has gone into captivity because of affliction and because of great servitude. She dwells among the nations. She finds no rest. All her persecutors overtook her in her distress.
4 The ways of Zion mourn, Because there are none that come to the feast: All her gates are ruined: Her priests groan, Her virgins are led captive, And she is in bitterness in herself.
4 Las calzadas de Sión tienen luto, porque no hay quien venga á las solemnidades; todas sus puertas están asoladas, sus sacerdotes gimen, sus vírgenes afligidas, y ella tiene amargura.
4 The roads to Zion mourn, because no one comes to the solemn assembly. All her gates are desolate. Her priests sigh. Her virgins are afflicted, and she herself is in bitterness.
5 Her oppressors are become the head, And her enemies have prospered; For the Lord has afflicted her Because of the multitude of her sins: Her young children are gone into captivity Before the face of the oppressor.
5 Sus enemigos han sido hechos cabeza, sus aborrecedores fueron prosperados; porque Jehová la afligió por la multitud de sus rebeliones: sus niños fueron en cautividad delante del enemigo.
5 Her adversaries have become the head. Her enemies prosper; for Yahweh has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions. Her young children have gone into captivity before the adversary.
6 And all her beauty has been taken away From the daughter of Zion: Her princes were as rams finding no pasture, And are gone [away] in weakness Before the face of the pursuer.
6 Fuése de la hija de Sión toda su hermosura: sus príncipes fueron como ciervos que no hallan pasto, y anduvieron sin fortaleza delante del perseguidor.
6 All majesty has departed from the daughter of Zion. Her princes have become like deer that find no pasture. They have gone without strength before the pursuer.
7 Jerusalem remembered the days of her affliction, And her rejection; [She thought on] all her desirable things Which were from the days of old, When her people fell into the hands of the oppressor, And there was none to help her: When her enemies saw [it] They laughed at her habitation.
7 Jerusalem, cuando cayó su pueblo en mano del enemigo y no hubo quien le ayudase, se acordó de los días de su aflicción, y de sus rebeliones, y de todas sus cosas deseables que tuvo desde los tiempos antiguos: miráronla los enemigos, y escarnecieron de sus sábados.
7 Jerusalem remembers in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that were from the days of old; when her people fell into the hand of the adversary, and no one helped her. The adversaries saw her. They mocked at her desolations.
8 Jerusalem has sinned a [great] sin; Therefore has she come into tribulation, All that used to honor her have afflicted her, For they have seen her shame: Yea, she herself groaned, and turned backward.
8 Pecado cometió Jerusalem; por lo cual ella ha sido removida: todos los que la honraban la han menospreciado, porque vieron su vergüenza; y ella suspira, y se vuelve atrás.
8 Jerusalem has grievously sinned. Therefore she has become unclean. All who honored her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness. Yes, she sighs and turns backward.
9 Her uncleanness is before her feet; She remembered not her last end; She has lowered her boasting [tone], There is none to comfort her. Behold, O Lord, my affliction: For the enemy has magnified himself.
9 Sus inmundicias en sus faldas; no se acordó de su postrimería: por tanto ella ha descendido maravillosamente, no tiene consolador. Mira, oh Jehová, mi aflicción, porque el enemigo se ha engrandecido.
9 Her filthiness was in her skirts. She didn’t remember her latter end. Therefore she has come down astoundingly. She has no comforter. “See, Yahweh, my affliction; for the enemy has magnified himself.”
10 The oppressor has stretched out his hand On all her desirable things: For she has seen the Gentiles Entering into her sanctuary, [Concerning] whom thou didst command That they should not enter into thy congregation.
10 Extendió su mano el enemigo á todas sus cosas preciosas; y ella ha visto entrar en su santuario las gentes, de las cuales mandaste que no entrasen en tu congregación.
10 The adversary has spread out his hand on all her pleasant things; for she has seen that the nations have entered into her sanctuary, concerning whom you commanded that they should not enter into your assembly.
11 All her people groan, Seeking bread: They have given their desirable things for meat, To restore their soul: Behold, Lord, and look; For she is become dishonored.
11 Todo su pueblo buscó su pan suspirando; dieron por la comida todas sus cosas preciosas, para entretener la vida. Mira, oh Jehová, y ve que estoy abatida.
11 All her people sigh. They seek bread. They have given their pleasant things for food to refresh their soul. “Look, Yahweh, and see, for I have become despised.”
12 All ye that pass by the way, Turn, and see if there is sorrow like to my sorrow, Which has happened [to me]. The Lord who spoke by me Has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
12 ¿No os conmueve á cuantos pasáis por el camino? Mirad, y ved si hay dolor como mi dolor que me ha venido; porque Jehová me ha angustiado en el día de la ira de su furor.
12 “Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Look, and see if there is any sorrow like my sorrow, which is brought on me, with which Yahweh has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
13 He has sent fire from his lofty habitation, He has brought it into my bones: He has spread a net for my feet, He has turned me back: He has made me desolate [And] mourning all the day.
13 Desde lo alto envió fuego en mis huesos, el cual se enseñoreó: ha extendido red á mis pies, tornóme atrás, púsome asolada, y que siempre tenga dolor.
13 “From on high has he sent fire into my bones, and it prevails against them. He has spread a net for my feet. He has turned me back. He has made me desolate and I faint all day long.
14 He has watched over my sins, They are twined about my hands, They have come up on my neck: My strength has failed; For the Lord has laid pains on my hands, I shall not be able to stand.
14 El yugo de mis rebeliones está ligado por su mano, enlazadas han subido sobre mi cerviz: ha hecho caer mis fuerzas: hame entregado el Señor en sus manos, contra quienes no podré levantarme.
14 “The yoke of my transgressions is bound by his hand. They are knit together. They have come up on my neck. He made my strength fail. The Lord has delivered me into their hands, against whom I am not able to stand.
15 The Lord has cut off All my strong men from the midst of me: He has summoned against me a time For crushing my choice men: The Lord has trodden a winepress For the virgin daughter of Judah: For these things I weep.
15 El Señor ha hollado todos mis fuertes en medio de mí; llamó contra mí compañía para quebrantar mis mancebos: como lagar ha pisado el Señor á la virgen hija de Judá.
15 “The Lord has set at nothing all my mighty men within me. He has called a solemn assembly against me to crush my young men. The Lord has trodden the virgin daughter of Judah as in a wine press.
16 Mine eye has poured out water, Because he that should comfort me, That should restore my soul, Has been removed far from me: My sons have been destroyed, Because the enemy has prevailed.
16 Por esta causa yo lloro; mis ojos, mis ojos fluyen aguas; porque se alejó de mí consolador que dé reposo á mi alma: mis hijos son destruídos, porque el enemigo prevaleció.
16 “For these things I weep. My eye, my eye runs down with water, because the comforter who should refresh my soul is far from me. My children are desolate, because the enemy has prevailed.”
17 Zion has spread out her hand, [And] there is none to comfort her: The Lord has commanded [concerning] Jacob, His oppressors are round about him: Jerusalem has become among them as a removed woman.
17 Sión extendió sus manos, no tiene quien la consuele; Jehová dió mandamiento contra Jacob, que sus enemigos lo cercasen: Jerusalem fué en abominación entre ellos.
17 Zion spreads out her hands. There is no one to comfort her. Yahweh has commanded concerning Jacob, that those who are around him should be his adversaries. Jerusalem is among them as an unclean thing.
18 The Lord is righteous; For I have provoked his mouth: Hear, I pray you, all people, And behold my grief: My virgins and my young men Are gone into captivity.
18 Jehová es justo; que yo contra su boca me rebelé. Oid ahora, pueblos todos, y ved mi dolor: mis vírgenes y mis mancebos fueron en cautiverio.
18 “Yahweh is righteous, for I have rebelled against his commandment. Please hear all you peoples, and see my sorrow. My virgins and my young men have gone into captivity.
19 I called my lovers, But they deceived me: My priests and my elders Failed in the city; For they sought meat That they might restore their souls, And found [it] not.
19 Dí voces á mis amadores, mas ellos me han engañado; mis sacerdotes y mis ancianos en la ciudad perecieron, buscando comida para sí con que entretener su vida.
19 “I called for my lovers, but they deceived me. My priests and my elders gave up the spirit in the city, while they sought food for themselves to refresh their souls.
20 Behold, O Lord; for I am afflicted: My belly is troubled, And my heart is turned within me; For I have been grievously rebellious: Abroad the sword has bereaved me, Even as death at home.
20 Mira, oh Jehová, que estoy atribulada: mis entrañas rugen, mi corazón está trastornado en medio de mí; porque me rebelé desaforadamente: de fuera deshijó el cuchillo, de dentro parece una muerte.
20 “Look, Yahweh; for I am in distress. My heart is troubled. My heart turns over within me, for I have grievously rebelled. Abroad, the sword bereaves. At home, it is like death.
21 Hear, I pray you, for I groan: There is none to comfort me: All mine enemies have heard [of] mine afflictions, And rejoice because thou hast done [it]: Thou hast brought on the day, Thou hast called the time: They are become like to me.
21 Oyeron que gemía, y no hay consolador para mí: todos mis enemigos han oído mi mal, se han holgado de que tú lo hiciste. Harás venir el día que has anunciado, y serán como yo.
21 “They have heard that I sigh. There is no one to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble. They are glad that you have done it. You will bring the day that you have proclaimed, and they will be like me.
22 Let all their wickedness come before thy face; And strip them, as they have made a gleaning for all my sins: For my groans are many, And my heart is grieved.
22 Entre delante de ti toda su maldad, y haz con ellos como hiciste conmigo por todas mis rebeliones: porque muchos son mis suspiros, y mi corazón está doloroso.
22 “Let all their wickedness come before you. Do to them as you have done to me for all my transgressions. For my sighs are many, and my heart is faint.
