RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

1 And after these things, I saw another Angel, descending from heaven, having great authority. And the earth was illuminated by his glory.

1 Y DESPUÉS de estas cosas vi otro ángel descender del cielo teniendo grande potencia; y la tierra fué alumbrada de su gloria.

2 And he cried out with strength, saying: “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great. And she has become the habitation of demons, and the keepsake of every unclean spirit, and the possession of every unclean and hateful flying thing.

2 Y clamó con fortaleza en alta voz, diciendo: Caída es, caída es la grande Babilonia, y es hecha habitación de demonios, y guarida de todo espíritu inmundo, y albergue de todas aves sucias y aborrecibles.

3 For all the nations have imbibed the wine of the wrath of her fornication. And the kings of the earth have fornicated with her. And the merchants of the earth have become wealthy by the power of her pleasures.”

3 Porque todas las gentes han bebido del vino del furor de su fornicación; y los reyes de la tierra han fornicado con ella, y los mercaderes de la tierra se han enriquecido de la potencia de sus deleites.

4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: “Go away from her, my people, so that you may not be participants in her pleasures, and so that you may not be recipients of her afflictions.

4 Y oí otra voz del cielo, que decía: Salid de ella, pueblo mío, porque no seáis participantes de sus pecados, y que no recibáis de sus plagas;

5 For her sins have pierced through even to heaven, and the Lord has remembered her iniquities.

5 Porque sus pecados han llegado hasta el cielo, y Dios se ha acordado de sus maldades.

6 Render to her, as she has also rendered to you. And repay her doubly, according to her works. Mix for her a double portion, in the cup with which she mixed.

6 Tornadle á dar como ella os ha dado, y pagadle al doble según sus obras; en el cáliz que ella os dió á beber, dadle á beber doblado.

7 As much as she has glorified herself and lived in pleasure, so much so give to her torment and grief. For in her heart, she has said: ‘I am enthroned as queen,’ and, ‘I am not a widow,’ and, ‘I shall not see sorrow.’

7 Cuanto ella se ha glorificado, y ha estado en deleites, tanto dadle de tormento y llanto; porque dice en su corazón: Yo estoy sentada reina, y no soy viuda, y no veré llanto.

8 For this reason, her afflictions shall arrive in one day: death and grief and famine. And she shall be burned with fire. For God, who will judge her, is strong.

8 Por lo cual en un día vendrán sus plagas, muerte, llanto y hambre, y será quemada con fuego; porque el Señor Dios es fuerte, que la juzgará.

9 And the kings of the earth, who have fornicated with her and lived in luxury, shall weep and mourn for themselves over her, when they see the smoke of her conflagration,

9 Y llorarán y se lamentarán sobre ella los reyes de la tierra, los cuales han fornicado con ella y han vivido en deleites, cuando ellos vieren el humo de su incendio,

10 standing far away, out of fear of her torments, saying: ‘Woe! Woe! to Babylon, that great city, that strong city. For in one hour, your judgment has arrived.’

10 Estando lejos por el temor de su tormento, diciendo: ¡Ay, ay, de aquella gran ciudad de Babilonia, aquella fuerte ciudad; porque en una hora vino tu juicio!

11 And the businessmen of the earth shall weep and mourn over her, because no one will buy their merchandise anymore:

11 Y los mercaderes de la tierra lloran y se lamentan sobre ella, porque ninguno compra más sus mercaderías:

12 merchandise of gold and silver and precious stones and pearls, and of fine linen and purple and silk and scarlet, and of every citrus tree wood, and of every tool of ivory, and of every tool from precious stone and brass and iron and marble,

12 Mercadería de oro, y de plata, y de piedras preciosas, y de margaritas, y de lino fino, y de escarlata, y de seda, y de grana, y de toda madera olorosa, y de todo vaso de marfil, y de todo vaso de madera preciosa, y de cobre, y de hierro, y de mármol;

13 and of cinnamon and black cardamom, and of fragrances and ointments and incense, and of wine and oil and fine flour and wheat, and of beasts of burden and sheep and horses and four-wheeled wagons, and of slaves and the souls of men.

13 Y canela, y olores, y ungüentos, y de incienso, y de vino, y de aceite; y flor de harina y trigo, y de bestias, y de ovejas; y de caballos, y de carros, y de siervos, y de almas de hombres.

14 And the fruits of the desires of your soul have gone away from you. And all things fat and splendid have perished from you. And they shall never find these things again.

14 Y los frutos del deseo de tu alma se apartaron de ti; y todas las cosas gruesas y excelentes te han faltado, y nunca más las hallarás.

15 The merchants of these things, who were made wealthy, shall stand far away from her, out of fear of her torments, weeping and mourning,

15 Los mercaderes de estas cosas, que se han enriquecido, se pondrán lejos de ella por el temor de su tormento, llorando y lamentando,

16 and saying: ‘Woe! Woe! to that great city, which was clothed with fine linen and purple and scarlet, and which was adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls.’

16 Y diciendo: ¡Ay, ay, aquella gran ciudad, que estaba vestida de lino fino, y de escarlata, y de grana, y estaba dorada con oro, y [adornada] de piedras preciosas y de perlas!

17 For such great wealth was brought to destitution in one hour. And every shipmaster, and all who navigate on lakes, and mariners, and those who work at sea, stood far away.

17 Porque en una hora han sido desoladas tantas riquezas. Y todo patrón, y todos los que viajan en naves, y marineros, y todos los que trabajan en el mar, se estuvieron lejos;

18 And they cried out, seeing the place of her conflagration, saying: ‘What city resembles this great city?’

18 Y viendo el humo de su incendio, dieron voces, diciendo: ¿Qué [ciudad] era semejante á esta gran ciudad?

19 And they cast dust upon their heads. And they cried out, weeping and mourning, saying: ‘Woe! Woe! to that great city, by which all who had ships at sea were made rich from her treasures. For she has been made desolate in one hour.

19 Y echaron polvo sobre sus cabezas; y dieron voces, llorando y lamentando, diciendo: ¡Ay, ay, de aquella gran ciudad, en la cual todos los que tenían navíos en la mar se habían enriquecido de sus riquezas; que en una hora ha sido desolada!

20 Exult over her, O heaven, O holy Apostles and Prophets. For God has judged your judgment upon her.’ ”

20 Alégrate sobre ella, cielo, y vosotros, santos, apóstoles, y profetas; porque Dios ha vengado vuestra causa en ella.

21 And a certain strong Angel took up a stone, similar to a great millstone, and he cast it into the sea, saying: “With this force shall Babylon, that great city, be cast down. And she shall never be found again.

21 Y un ángel fuerte tomó una piedra como una grande piedra de molino, y la echó en la mar, diciendo: Con tanto ímpetu será derribada Babilonia, aquella grande ciudad, y nunca jamás será hallada.

22 And the sound of singers, and musicians, and flute and trumpet players shall not be heard in you again. And every artisan of every art shall not be found in you again. And the sound of the mill shall not be heard in you again.

22 Y voz de tañedores de arpas, y de músicos, y de tañedores de flautas y de trompetas, no será más oída en ti; y todo artífice de cualquier oficio, no será más hallado en ti; y el sonido de muela no será más en ti oído:

23 And the light of the lamp shall not shine in you again. And the voice of the groom and of the bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the leaders of the earth. For all the nations were led astray by your drugs.

23 Y luz de antorcha no alumbrará más en ti; y voz de esposo ni de esposa no será más en ti oída; porque tus mercaderes eran los magnates de la tierra; porque en tus hechicerías todas las gentes han errado.

24 And in her was found the blood of the Prophets and of the Saints, and of all who were slain upon the earth.”

24 Y en ella fué hallada la sangre de los profetas y de los santos, y de todos los que han sido muertos en la tierra.
