Ezekiel 24 Free Bible Version
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 On the tenth day of the tenth month of the ninth year, a message from the Lord came to me, saying,
1 Y FUÉ á mí palabra de Jehová en el noveno año, en el mes décimo, á los diez del mes, diciendo:
2 “Son of man, write down today's date, because this is the day that the king of Babylon started his siege of Jerusalem.
2 Hijo del hombre, escríbete el nombre de este día: el rey de Babilonia se puso sobre Jerusalem este mismo día.
3 Then repeat the following parable to these rebellious people. Tell them that this is what the Lord God says: Get a pot and set it on the fire. Pour in some water.
3 Y habla á la casa de rebelión por parábola, y diles: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Pon una olla, ponla, y echa también en ella agua:
4 Fill it with some good cuts of meat from the thigh and the shoulder. Put in the best bones.
4 Junta sus piezas en ella; todas buenas piezas, pierna y espalda; hínchela de huesos escogidos.
5 Choose the best animal from the flock. Pile up the fuel underneath it. Get it boiling and cook the bones in it.
5 Toma una oveja escogida; y también enciende los huesos debajo de ella; haz que hierva bien; coced también sus huesos dentro de ella.
6 So this is what the Lord God says: Disaster is coming to the city that has shed so much blood! It is symbolized by the rusted pot, whose rust can't be cleaned off. Take out the meat bit by bit as it comes—don't choose which piece.
6 Pues así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: ¡Ay de la ciudad de sangres, de la olla no espumada, y cuya espuma no salió de ella! Por sus piezas, por sus piezas sácala; no caiga sobre ella suerte.
7 For the blood she shed is still inside the city. She shed it openly on bare rock—she didn't even spill it on the ground and cover it up with dirt.
7 Porque su sangre fué en medio de ella: sobre una piedra alisada la puso; no la derramó sobre la tierra para que fuese cubierta con polvo.
8 In my anger and to punish, I have spilled her blood openly on bare rock, so it wouldn't be covered up.
8 Habiendo, [pues], hecho subir la ira para hacer venganza, yo pondré su sangre sobre la dura piedra, para que no sea cubierta.
9 So this is what the Lord God says: Disaster is coming to the city that has shed so much blood! I will also pile up a large heap of firewood.
9 Por tanto, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: ¡Ay de la ciudad de sangres! Pues también haré yo gran hoguera,
10 Put on plenty of wood and light the fire. Make sure the meat is well cooked and add spices. Burn the bones.
10 Multiplicando la leña, encendiendo el fuego, para consumir la carne, y hacer la salsa; y los huesos serán quemados:
11 Then put the empty pot back on the burning coals until it's hot and the copper metal glows. This will melt the dirt inside it and get rid of the rust.
11 Asentando después la [olla] vacía sobre sus brasas, para que se caldee, y se queme su fondo, y se funda en ella su suciedad, [y] se consuma su espuma.
12 So far it's been impossible to clean it —even fire couldn't burn out all its rust.
12 En fraude se cansó, y no salió de ella su mucha espuma. En fuego será su espuma consumida.
13 Because of your immorality you had made yourself unclean and I tried to clean you, but you refused to let me clean away your filth. So now you won't be pure again until I've finished being angry with you.
13 En tu suciedad perversa [padecerás]: porque te limpié, y tú no te limpiaste de tu suciedad: nunca más te limpiarás, hasta que yo haga reposar mi ira sobre ti.
14 I, the Lord, have spoken. The time is soon coming when I will do what I say. I won't change my mind or show pity, I won't stop. I will judge you by your attitude and actions, declares the Lord God.”
14 Yo Jehová he hablado; vendrá, y harélo. No me tornaré atrás, ni tendré misericordia, ni me arrepentiré: según tus caminos y tus obras te juzgarán, dice el Señor Jehová.
15 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
15 Y fué á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:
16 “Son of man, look, I'm about to take away the one you love the most. She will die. But you must not mourn or weep. Don't cry any tears.
16 Hijo del hombre, he aquí que yo te quito de golpe el deseo de tus ojos: no endeches, ni llores, ni corran tus lágrimas.
17 Mourn in silence. Don't have any rituals for the dead. Dress normally—have your turban on and put your sandals on your feet. Don't veil your face and don't eat the bread used by mourners.”
17 Reprime el suspirar, no hagas luto de mortuorios: ata tu bonete sobre ti, y pon tus zapatos en tus pies, y no te cubras con rebozo, ni comas pan de hombres.
18 I talked to the people in the morning, and my wife died in the evening. The next morning I did as I'd been told.
18 Y hablé al pueblo por la mañana, y á la tarde murió mi mujer: y á la mañana hice como me fué mandado.
19 The people asked me, “What are you doing? Aren't you going to explain to us what this means?”
19 Y díjome el pueblo: ¿No nos enseñarás qué nos [significan] estas cosas que tú haces?
20 So I told them, “A message from the Lord came to me, saying:
20 Y yo les dije: Palabra de Jehová fué á mí, diciendo:
21 Tell the people of Israel that this is what the Lord God says: I am about to make my sanctuary unclean, this place you're so proud of that you think gives you power, the place you love so much, the place that makes you happy. Your sons and daughters that you left behind will be killed by the sword.
21 Di á la casa de Israel: Así ha dicho el Señor Dios: He aquí yo profano mi santuario, la gloria de vuestra fortaleza, el deseo de vuestros ojos, y el regalo de vuestra alma: vuestros hijos y vuestras hijas que dejasteis, caerán á cuchillo.
22 Then you'll do what I did. You won't veil your face or eat the bread used by mourners.
22 Y haréis de la manera que yo hice: no os cubriréis con rebozo, ni comeréis pan de hombres;
23 You will keep your turbans on your heads and your sandals on your feet. You won't mourn or weep, but you will die inside because of your sins, and you will groan to one another.
23 Y vuestros bonetes estarán sobre vuestras cabezas, y vuestros zapatos en vuestros pies: no endecharéis ni lloraréis, sino que os consumiréis á causa de vuestras maldades, y gemiréis unos con otros.
24 In this way Ezekiel will be a sign for you; you will do everything that he did. When this happens, then you will know that I am the Lord God.
24 Ezequiel pues os será por señal; según todas las cosas que él hizo, haréis: en viniendo esto, entonces sabréis que yo soy el Señor Jehová.
25 You, son of man, should know that when I destroy their fortress that is their pride and joy, the place they looked to for comfort and happiness —and their sons and daughters too—
25 Y tú, hijo del hombre, el día que yo quitaré de ellos su fortaleza, el gozo de su gloria, el deseo de sus ojos, y el cuidado de sus almas, sus hijos y sus hijas,
26 when that happens someone who managed to get away will come and give you the news.
26 Este día vendrá á ti [un] escapado para traer las nuevas.
27 On that day you will be able to speak; you won't be mute any longer. This is how you will be a sign to them, and they will know that I am the Lord.”
27 En aquel día se abrirá tu boca [para hablar] con el escapado, y hablarás, y no estarás más mudo; y les serás por señal, y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.
