JPS JPS Tanakh (1917)
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 And He said unto me: 'Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.'
1 Y DÍJOME: Hijo del hombre, está sobre tus pies, y hablaré contigo.
2 And spirit entered into me when He spoke unto me, and set me upon my feet; and I heard Him that spoke unto me.
2 Y entró espíritu en mí luego que me habló, y afirmóme sobre mis pies, y oía al que me hablaba.
3 And He said unto me: 'Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to rebellious nations, that have rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have transgressed against Me, even unto this very day;
3 Y díjome: Hijo del hombre, yo te envío á los hijos de Israel, á gentes rebeldes que se rebelaron contra mí: ellos y sus padres se han rebelado contra mí hasta este mismo día.
4 and the children are brazen-faced and stiff-hearted, I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them: Thus saith the Lord GOD.
4 Yo pues te envío á hijos de duro rostro y de empedernido corazón; y les dirás: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová.
5 And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear — for they are a rebellious house — yet shall know that there hath been a prophet among them.
5 Acaso ellos escuchen; y si no escucharen, (porque son una rebelde familia,) siempre conocerán que hubo profeta entre ellos.
6 And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though defiers and despisers be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions; be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, for they are a rebellious house.
6 Y tú, hijo del hombre, no temas de ellos, ni tengas miedo de sus palabras, aunque te [hallas] entre zarzas y espinas, y tú moras con escorpiones: no tengas miedo de sus palabras, ni temas delante de ellos, porque son casa rebelde.
7 And thou shalt speak My words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear; for they are most rebellious.
7 Les hablarás pues mis palabras, escuchen ó dejen de escuchar; porque son muy rebeldes.
8 And thou, son of man, hear what I say unto thee: be not thou rebellious like that rebellious house; open thy mouth, and eat that which I give thee.'
8 Mas tú, hijo del hombre, oye lo que yo te hablo; no seas tú rebelde como la casa rebelde: abre tu boca, y come lo que yo te doy.
9 And when I looked, behold, a hand was put forth unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;
9 Y miré, y he aquí una mano me fué enviada, y en ella había un rollo de libro.
10 and He spread it before me, and it was written within and without; and there was written therein lamentations, and moaning, and woe.
10 Y extendiólo delante de mí, y estaba escrito delante y detrás: y había escritas en él endechas, y lamentación, y ayes.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 2:5 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily LXXVII)

    I will go down therefore, and see whether their doings be according to their cry which cometh unto me, and if not, I will know." And elsewhere He saith, "Whether they will hear, whether they will understand." And in the gospel too, "It may be they will reverence my Son:" all which are expressions of ignorance.
