Notes on this text (1)
- Original 16th-century spelling.
1 Send yee a lambe to the ruler of the worlde from the rocke of the wildernesse, vnto the mountaine of the daughter Zion.
1 ENVIAD cordero al enseñoreador de la tierra, desde la Piedra del desierto al monte de la hija de Sión.
2 For it shall be as a birde that flieth, and a nest forsaken: the daughters of Moab shall be at the foordes of Arnon.
2 Y será que cual ave espantada que se huye de su nido, así serán las hijas de Moab en los vados de Arnón.
3 Gather a cousel, execute iudgement: make thy shadowe as the night in the midday: hide them that are chased out: bewray not him that is fled.
3 Reune consejo, haz juicio; pon tu sombra en medio del día como la noche: esconde los desterrados, no entregues á los que andan errantes.
4 Let my banished dwell with thee: Moab be thou their couert from the face of the destroyer: for the extortioner shall ende: the destroyer shalbe consumed, and the oppressour shall cease out of the land.
4 Moren contigo mis desterrados, oh Moab; séles escondedero de la presencia del destruidor: porque el atormentador fenecerá, el destruidor tendrá fin, el hollador será consumido de sobre la tierra.
5 And in mercy shall the throne be prepared, and hee shall sit vpon it in stedfastnesse, in the tabernacle of Dauid, iudging, and seeking iudgement, and hasting iustice.
5 Y dispondráse trono en misericordia; y sobre él se sentará firmemente, en el tabernáculo de David, quien juzgue y busque el juicio, y apresure la justicia.
6 We haue heard of the pride of Moab, (he is very proud) euen his pride, and his arrogancie, and his indignation, but his lies shall not be so.
6 Oído hemos la soberbia de Moab, por extremo soberbio; su soberbia y su arrogancia, y su altivez; mas sus mentiras no serán firmes.
7 Therefore shall Moab howle vnto Moab: euery one shall howle: for the foundations of Kirhareseth shall ye mourne, yet they shalbe striken.
7 Por tanto aullará Moab, todo él aullará: gemiréis por los fundamentos de Kir-hareseth, en gran manera heridos.
8 For ye vineyards of Heshbon are cut downe, and the vine of Sibmah: the lordes of the heathen haue broken the principal vines thereof: they are come vnto Iaazer: they wandred in the wildernesse: her goodly branches stretched out them selues, and went ouer the sea.
8 Porque los campos de Hesbón fueron talados, [y] las vides de Sibma; señores de gentes hollaron sus [generosos] sarmientos; habían llegado hasta Jazer, [y] extendídose por el desierto; extendiéronse sus plantas, pasaron la mar.
9 Therefore will I weepe with the weeping of Iaazer, and of the vine of Sibmah, O Heshbon: and Elealeh, I will make thee drunke with my teares, because vpon thy sommer fruits, and vpon thy haruest a showting is fallen.
9 Por lo cual lamentaré con lloro de Jazer la viña de Sibma; embriagarte hé de mis lágrimas, oh Hesbón y Eleale: porque sobre tus cosechas y sobre tu siega caerá la algazara.
10 And gladnes is taken away, and ioy out of the plentifull fielde: and in the vineyardes shall be no singing nor shouting for ioy: the treader shall not tread wine in the wine presses: I haue caused the reioycing to cease.
10 Quitado es el gozo y la alegría del campo fértil; en las viñas no cantarán, ni se regocijarán; no pisará vino en los lagares el pisador: la canción he hecho cesar.
11 Wherefore, my bowels shall sounde like an harpe for Moab, and mine inwarde partes for Ker-haresh.
11 Por tanto mis entrañas sonarán como arpa acerca de Moab, y mi interior en orden á Kir-hareseth.
12 And when it shall appeare that Moab shall be wearie of his hie places, then shall hee come to his temple to praie, but he shall not preuaile.
12 Y acaecerá, que cuando Moab pareciere que está cansado sobre los altos, entonces vendrá á su santuario á orar, y no le valdrá.
13 This is the word that the Lord hath spoken against Moab since that time.
13 Esta es la palabra que pronunció Jehová sobre Moab desde aquel tiempo.
14 And nowe the Lord hath spoken, saying, In three yeres, as the yeeres of a hireling, and the glorie of Moab shall be contemned in all the great multitude, and the remnant shalbe very small and feeble.
14 Empero ahora Jehová ha hablado, diciendo: Dentro de tres años, como años de mozo de soldada, será abatida la gloria de Moab, con toda su grande multitud: y los residuos serán pocos, pequeños, y no fuertes.
