WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)

1 Τίς οὗτος ὁ παραγνόμενος ἐξ Ἐδὼμ, ἐρύθημα ἱματίων ἐκ Βοσόρ; οὕτως ὡραῖος ἐν στολῇ, βίᾳ μετὰ ἰσχύος; ἐγὼ διαλέγομαι δικαιοσύνην καὶ κρίσιν σωτηρίου.

1 ¿QUIÉN es éste que viene de Edom, de Bosra con vestidos bermejos? ¿éste hermoso en su vestido, que marcha en la grandeza de su poder? Yo, el que hablo en justicia, grande para salvar.

1 Who is this who comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? Who is this who is glorious in his clothing, marching in the greatness of his strength? “It is I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.”

2 Διατί σου ἐρυθρὰ τὰ ἱμάτια, καὶ τὰ ἐνδύματά σου ὡς ἀπὸ πατητοῦ ληνοῦ;

2 ¿Por qué es bermejo tu vestido, y tus ropas como del que ha pisado en lagar?

2 Why is your clothing red, and your garments like him who treads in the wine vat?

3 Πλήρης καταπεπατημένης, καὶ τῶν ἐθνῶν οὐκ ἔστιν ἀνὴρ μετʼ ἐμοῦ, καὶ κατεπάτησα αὐτοὺς ἐν θυμῷ μου, καὶ κατέθλασα αὐτοὺς ὡς γῆν, καὶ κατήγαγον τὸ αἷμα αὐτῶν εἰς γῆν.

3 Pisado he yo solo el lagar, y de los pueblos nadie fué conmigo: pisélos con mi ira, y hollélos con mi furor; y su sangre salpicó mis vestidos, y ensucié todas mis ropas.

3 “I have trodden the wine press alone. Of the peoples, no one was with me. Yes, I trod them in my anger and trampled them in my wrath. Their lifeblood is sprinkled on my garments, and I have stained all my clothing.

4 Ἡμέρα γὰρ ἀνταποδόσεως ἐπῆλθεν αὐτοῖς, καὶ ἐνιαυτὸς λυτρώσεως πάρεστι.

4 Porque el día de la venganza está en mi corazón, y el año de mis redimidos es venido.

4 For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year of my redeemed has come.

5 Καὶ ἐπέβλεψα, καὶ οὐκ ἦν βοηθός· καὶ προσενόησα, καὶ οὐθεὶς ἀντελαμβάνετο· καὶ ἐῤῥύσατο αὐτοὺς ὁ βραχίων μου, καὶ ὁ θυμός μου ἐπέστη.

5 Y miré y no había quien ayudara, y maravilléme que no hubiera quien sustentase: y salvóme mi brazo, y sostúvome mi ira.

5 I looked, and there was no one to help; and I wondered that there was no one to uphold. Therefore my own arm brought salvation to me. My own wrath upheld me.

6 Καὶ κατεπάτησα αὐτοὺς τῇ ὀργῇ μου, καὶ κατήγαγον τὸ αἷμα αὐτῶν εἰς γῆν.

6 Y con mi ira hollé los pueblos, y embriaguélos de mi furor, y derribé á tierra su fortaleza.

6 I trod down the peoples in my anger and made them drunk in my wrath. I poured their lifeblood out on the earth.”

7 Τὸν ἔλεον Κυρίου ἐμνήσθην, τὰς ἀρετὰς Κυρίου ἐν πᾶσιν οἷς ἡμῖν ἀνταποδίδωσι· Κύριος κριτὴν ἀγαθὸς τῷ οἴκῳ Ἰσραὴλ, ἐπάγει ἡμῖν κατὰ τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ, καὶ κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῆς δικαιοσύνης αὐτοῦ.

7 De las misericordias de Jehová haré memoria, de las alabanzas de Jehová, conforme á todo lo que Jehová nos ha dado, y de la grandeza de su beneficencia hacia la casa de Israel, que les ha hecho según sus misericordias, y según la multitud de sus miseraciones.

7 I will tell of the loving kindnesses of Yahweh and the praises of Yahweh, according to all that Yahweh has given to us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he has given to them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.

8 Καὶ εἶπεν, οὐχ ὁ λαός μου; τέκνα οὐ μὴ ἀθετήσωσι· καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῖς εἰς σωτηρίαν

8 Porque dijo: Ciertamente mi pueblo son, hijos que no mienten; y fué su Salvador.

8 For he said, “Surely, they are my people, children who will not deal falsely;” so he became their Savior.

9 ἐκ πάσης θλίψεως αὐτῶν· οὐ πρέσβυς, οὐδὲ ἄγγελος, ἀλλʼ αὐτὸς ἔσωσεν αὐτοὺς, διὰ τὸ ἀγαπᾷν αὐτοὺς καὶ φείδεσθαι αὐτῶν· αὐτὸς ἐλυτρώσατο αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἀνέλαβεν αὐτοὺς, καὶ ὕψωσεν αὐτοὺς πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τοῦ αἰῶνος·

9 En toda angustia de ellos él fué angustiado, y el ángel de su faz los salvó: en su amor y en su clemencia los redimió, y los trajo, y los levantó todos los días del siglo.

9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and in his pity he redeemed them. He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.

10 Αὐτοὶ δὲ ἠπείθησαν, καὶ παρώξυναν τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐστράφη αὐτοῖς εἰς ἔχθραν, αὐτὸς ἐπολέμησεν αὐτούς.

10 Mas ellos fueron rebeldes, é hicieron enojar su espíritu santo; por lo cual se les volvió enemigo, y él mismo peleó contra ellos.

10 But they rebelled and grieved his Holy Spirit. Therefore he turned and became their enemy, and he himself fought against them.

11 Καὶ ἐμνήσθη ἡμερῶν αἰωνίων· ποῦ ὁ ἀναβιβάσας ἐκ τῆς θαλάσσης τὸν ποιμένα τῶν προβάτων; ποῦ ἐστιν ὁ θεὶς ἐν αὐτοῖς τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον;

11 Empero acordóse de los días antiguos, de Moisés [y] de su pueblo, [diciendo]: ¿Dónde está el que les hizo subir de la mar con el pastor de su rebaño? ¿dónde el que puso en medio de él su espíritu santo?

11 Then he remembered the days of old, Moses and his people, saying, “Where is he who brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he who put his Holy Spirit among them?”

12 ὁ ἀγαγὼν τῇ δεξιᾷ Μωσῆν, ὁ βραχίων τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ; κατίσχυσεν ὕδωρ ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ, ποιῆσαι ἑαυτῷ ὄνομα αἰώνιον.

12 ¿El que [los] guió por la diestra de Moisés con el brazo de su gloria; el que rompió las aguas delante de ellos, haciéndose así nombre perpetuo?

12 Who caused his glorious arm to be at Moses’ right hand? Who divided the waters before them, to make himself an everlasting name?

13 Ἤγαγεν αὐτοὺς διʼ ἀβύσσου, ὡς ἵππον διʼ ἐρήμου, καὶ οὐκ ἐκοπίασαν,

13 ¿El que los condujo por los abismos, como un caballo por el desierto, sin que tropezaran?

13 Who led them through the depths, like a horse in the wilderness, so that they didn’t stumble?

14 καὶ ὡς κτήνη διὰ πεδίου· κατέβη πνεῦμα παρὰ Κυρίου, καὶ ὡδήγησεν αὐτούς· οὕτως ἤγαγες τὸν λαόν σου ποιῆσαι σεαυτῷ ὄνομα δόξης.

14 El espíritu de Jehová los pastoreó, como á una bestia que desciende al valle; así pastoreaste tu pueblo, para hacerte nombre glorioso.

14 As the livestock that go down into the valley, Yahweh’s Spirit caused them to rest. So you led your people to make yourself a glorious name.

15 Ἐπίστρεψον ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἴδε ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ ἁγίου σου, καὶ δόξης σου· ποῦ ἐστιν ὁ ζῆλός σου καὶ ἡ ἰσχύς σου; ποῦ ἐστι τὸ πλῆθος τοῦ ἐλέους σου, καὶ οἰκτιρμῶν σου, ὅτι ἀνέσχου ἡμῶν;

15 Mira desde el cielo, y contempla desde la morada de tu santidad y de tu gloria: ¿dónde está tu celo, y tu fortaleza, la conmoción de tus entrañas y de tus miseraciones para conmigo? ¿hanse estrechado?

15 Look down from heaven, and see from the habitation of your holiness and of your glory. Where are your zeal and your mighty acts? The yearning of your heart and your compassion is restrained toward me.

16 Σὺ γὰρ εἶ πατὴρ ἡμῶν, ὅτι Ἁβραὰμ οὐκ ἔγνω ἡμᾶς, καὶ Ἰσραὴλ οὐκ ἐπέγνω ἡμᾶς, ἀλλὰ σὺ Κύριε πατὴρ ἡμῶν ῥῦσαι ἡμᾶς, ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς ἐστι.

16 Tú empero eres nuestro padre, si bien Abraham nos ignora, é Israel no nos conoce: tú, oh Jehová, eres nuestro padre; nuestro Redentor perpetuo [es] tu nombre.

16 For you are our Father, though Abraham doesn’t know us, and Israel does not acknowledge us. You, Yahweh, are our Father. Our Redeemer from everlasting is your name.

17 Τί ἐπλάνησας ἡμᾶς, Κύριε, ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ σου; ἐσκλήρυνας τὰς καρδίας ἡμῶν, τοῦ μὴ φοβεῖσθαί σε; ἐπίστρεψον διὰ τοὺς δούλους σου, διὰ τὰς φυλὰς τῆς κληρονομίας σου,

17 ¿Por qué, oh Jehová, nos has hecho errar de tus caminos, y endureciste nuestro corazón á tu temor? Vuélvete por amor de tus siervos, por las tribus de tu heredad.

17 O Yahweh, why do you make us wander from your ways, and harden our heart from your fear? Return for your servants’ sake, the tribes of your inheritance.

18 ἵνα μικρὸν κληρονομήσωμεν τοῦ ὄρους τοῦ ἁγίου σου.

18 Por poco tiempo [lo] poseyó el pueblo de tu santidad: nuestros enemigos han hollado tu santuario.

18 Your holy people possessed it but a little while. Our adversaries have trodden down your sanctuary.

19 Ἐγενόμεθα ὡς τὸ ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς ὅτε οὐκ ἦρξας ἡμῶν, οὐδὲ ἐκλήθη τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς. Ἐὰν ἀνοίξῃς τὸν οὐρανὸν, τρόμος λήψεται ἀπὸ σοῦ ὄρη, καὶ τακήσονται,

19 Hemos venido á ser como aquellos de quienes nunca te enseñoreaste, sobre los cuales nunca fué llamado tu nombre.

19 We have become like those over whom you never ruled, like those who were not called by your name.

“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).
