WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Καὶ ἤκουσε Πασχὼρ ὁ υἱὸς Ἑμμὴρ ὁ ἱερεὺς, καὶ οὗτος ἦν καθεσταμένος ἡγούμενος οἴκου Κυρίου, τοῦ Ἱερεμίου προφητεύοντος τοὺς λόγους τούτους.
1 Y PASHUR sacerdote, hijo de Immer, que presidía por príncipe en la casa de Jehová, oyó á Jeremías que profetizaba estas palabras.
1 Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in Yahweh’s house, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.
2 Καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐνέβαλεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν καταράκτην, ὃς ἦν ἐν πύλῃ οἴκου ἀποτεταγμένου τοῦ ὑπερῴου, ὃς ἦν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου.
2 E hirió Pashur á Jeremías profeta, y púsole en el cepo que estaba á la puerta de Benjamín en lo alto, la cual [conducía] á la casa de Jehová.
2 Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in Yahweh’s house.
3 Καὶ ἐξήγαγε Πασχὼρ τὸν Ἱερεμίαν ἐκ τοῦ καταράκτου· καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἱερεμίας, οὐχὶ Πασχὼρ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομά σου, ἀλλʼ ἢ Μέτοικον.
3 Y el día siguiente Pashur sacó á Jeremías del cepo. Díjole entonces Jeremías: Jehová no ha llamado tu nombre Pashur, sino Magor-missabib.
3 On the next day, Pashhur released Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, “Yahweh has not called your name Pashhur, but Magormissabib.
4 Διότι τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ δίδωμί σε εἰς μετοικίαν σὺν πᾶσι τοῖς φίλοις σου· καὶ πεσοῦνται ἐν μαχαίρᾳ ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν, καὶ οἱ ὀφθαλμοί σου ὄψονται· καὶ σὲ καὶ πάντα Ἰούδα δώσω εἰς χεῖρας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος, καὶ μετοικιοῦσιν αὐτοὺς, καὶ κατακόψουσιν ἐν μαχαίραις.
4 Porque así ha dicho Jehová: He aquí yo te pondré en espanto á ti, y á todos los que bien te quieren, y caerán por el cuchillo de sus enemigos, y tus ojos lo verán: y á todo Judá entregaré en mano del rey de Babilonia, y los trasportará á Babilonia, y herirálos á cuchillo.
4 For Yahweh says, ‘Behold, I will make you a terror to yourself and to all your friends. They will fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes will see it. I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will carry them captive to Babylon, and will kill them with the sword.
5 Καὶ δώσω τὴν πᾶσαν ἰσχὺν τῆς πόλεως ταύτης, καὶ πάντας τοὺς πόνους αὐτῆς, καὶ πάντας τοὺς θησαυροὺς τοῦ βασιλέως Ἰούδα εἰς χεῖρας ἐχθρῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἄξουσιν αὐτοὺς εἰς Βαβυλῶνα.
5 Entregaré asimismo toda la sustancia de esta ciudad, y todo su trabajo, y todas sus cosas preciosas; y daré todos los tesoros de los reyes de Judá en manos de sus enemigos, y los saquearán, y los tomarán, y llevaránlos á Babilonia.
5 Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all its gains, and all its precious things, yes, I will give all the treasures of the kings of Judah into the hand of their enemies. They will make them captives, take them, and carry them to Babylon.
6 Καὶ σὺ καὶ πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ σου, πορεύσεσθε ἐν αἰχμαλωσίᾳ, καὶ ἐν Βαβυλῶνι ἀποθανῇ, καὶ ἐκεῖ ταφήσῃ σὺ καὶ πάντες οἱ φίλοι σου, οἷς ἐπροφήτευσας αὐτοῖς ψευδῆ.
6 Y tú, Pashur, y todos los moradores de tu casa iréis cautivos, y entrarás en Babilonia, y allí morirás, y serás allá enterrado, tú, y todos los que bien te quieren, á los cuales has profetizado con mentira.
6 You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house will go into captivity. You will come to Babylon, and there you will die, and there you will be buried, you, and all your friends, to whom you have prophesied falsely.’”
7 Ἠπάτησάς με Κύριε, καὶ ἠπατήθην, ἐκράτησας, καὶ ἠδυνάσθης· ἐγενόμην εἰς γέλωτα, πᾶσαν ἡμέραν διετέλεσα μυκτηριζόμενος·
7 Alucinásteme, oh Jehová, y hállome frustrado: más fuerte fuiste que yo, y vencísteme: cada día he sido escarnecido; cada cual se burla de mí.
7 Yahweh, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded. You are stronger than I, and have prevailed. I have become a laughingstock all day. Everyone mocks me.
8 Ὅτι πικρῷ λόγῳ μου γελάσομαι, ἀθεσίαν καὶ ταλαιπωρίαν ἐπικαλέσομαι, ὅτι ἐγενήθη λόγος Κυρίου εἰς ὀνειδισμὸν ἐμοὶ καὶ εἰς χλευασμὸν πᾶσαν ἡμέραν μου.
8 Porque desde que hablo, doy voces, grito, Violencia y destrucción: porque la palabra de Jehová me ha sido para afrenta y escarnio cada día.
8 For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, “Violence and destruction!” because Yahweh’s word has been made a reproach to me, and a derision, all day.
9 Καὶ εἶπα, οὐ μὴ ὀνομάσω τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου, καὶ οὐ μὴ λαλήσω ἔτι ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς πῦρ καιόμενον φλέγον ἐν τοῖς ὀστοῖς μου, καὶ παρεῖμαι πάντοθεν, καὶ οὐ δύναμαι φέρειν,
9 Y dije: No me acordaré más de él, ni hablaré más en su nombre: empero fué en mi corazón como un fuego ardiente metido en mis huesos, trabajé por sufrirlo, y no pude.
9 If I say that I will not make mention of him, or speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones. I am weary with holding it in. I can’t.
10 ὅτι ἤκουσα ψόγον πολλῶν συναθροιζομένων κυκλόθεν, ἐπισύστητε, καὶ ἐπισυστῶμεν ἐπʼ αὐτῷ πάντες ἄνδρες φιλοι αὐτοῦ· τηρήσατε τὴν ἐπίνοιαν αὐτοῦ, εἰ ἀπατηθήσεται, καὶ δυνησόμεθα αὐτῷ, καὶ ληψόμεθα τὴν ἐκδίκησιν ἡμῶν ἐξ αὐτοῦ.
10 Porque oí la murmuración de muchos, temor de todas partes: Denunciad, y denunciaremos. Todos mis amigos miraban si claudicaría. Quizá se engañará, [decían], y prevaleceremos contra él, y tomaremos de él nuestra venganza.
10 For I have heard the defaming of many: “Terror on every side! Denounce, and we will denounce him!” say all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall. “Perhaps he will be persuaded, and we will prevail against him, and we will take our revenge on him.”
11 Ὁ δὲ κύριος μετʼ ἐμοῦ καθὼς μαχητὴς ἰσχύων· διατοῦτο ἐδίωξαν, καὶ νοῆσαι οὐκ ἠδύναντο· ᾐσχύνθησαν σφόδρα, ὅτι οὐκ ἐνόησαν ἀτιμίας αὐτῶν, αἳ διʼ αἰῶνος οὐκ ἐπιλησθήσονται.
11 Mas Jehová está conmigo como poderoso gigante; por tanto los que me persiguen tropezarán, y no prevalecerán; serán avergonzados en gran manera, porque no prosperarán; [tendrán] perpetua confusión que jamás será olvidada.
11 But Yahweh is with me as an awesome mighty one. Therefore my persecutors will stumble, and they won’t prevail. They will be utterly disappointed because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which will never be forgotten.
12 Κύριε δοκιμάζων δίκαια, συνιῶν νεφροὺς καὶ καρδίας, ἴδοιμι τὴν παρὰ σοῦ ἐκδίκησιν ἐν αὐτοῖς, ὅτι πρὸς σὲ ἀπεκάλυψα τὰ ἀπολογήματά μου.
12 Oh Jehová de los ejércitos, que sondas los justos, que ves los riñones y el corazón, vea yo tu venganza de ellos; porque á ti he descubierto mi causa.
12 But Yahweh of Armies, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them, for I have revealed my cause to you.
13 Ἄσατε τῷ Κυρίῳ, αἰνέσατε αὐτῷ, ὅτι ἐξείλατο τὴν ψυχὴν πένητος ἐκ χειρὸς πονηρευομένων.
13 Cantad á Jehová, load á Jehová: porque librado ha el alma del pobre de mano de los malignos.
13 Sing to Yahweh! Praise Yahweh, for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.
14 Ἐπικατάρατος ἡ ἡμέρα ἐν ᾗ ἐτέχθην ἐν αὐτῇ· ἡ ἡμέρα ἐν ᾗ ἔτεκέν με ἡ μήτηρ μου, μὴ ἔστω ἐπευκτή.
14 Maldito el día en que nací: el día en que mi madre me parió no sea bendito.
14 Cursed is the day in which I was born. Don’t let the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.
15 Ἐπικατάρατος ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ εὐαγγελισάμενος τῷ πατρί μου λέγων, ἐτέχθη σοι ἄρσην· εὐφραινόμενος
15 Maldito el hombre que dió nuevas á mi padre, diciendo, Hijo varón te ha nacido, haciéndole alegrarse así mucho.
15 Cursed is the man who brought news to my father, saying, “A boy is born to you,” making him very glad.
16 ἔστω ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖνος, ὡς αἱ πόλεις ἃς κατέστρεψε Κύριος ἐν θυμῷ καὶ οὐ μετεμελήθη· ἀκουσάτω κραυγῆς τῷ πρωὶ, καὶ ἀλαλαγμοῦ μεσημβρίας,
16 Y sea el tal hombre como las ciudades que asoló Jehová, y no se arrepintió: y oiga gritos de mañana, y voces al medio día;
16 Let that man be as the cities which Yahweh overthrew, and didn’t repent. Let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime,
17 ὅτι οὐκ ἀπέκτεινέ με ἐν μήτρᾳ, καὶ ἐγένετό μοι ἡ μήτηρ μου τάφος μου, καὶ ἡ μήτρα συλλήψεως αἰωνίας.
17 Porque no me mató en el vientre, y mi madre me hubiera sido mi sepulcro, y su vientre concebimiento perpetuo.
17 because he didn’t kill me from the womb. So my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
18 Ἱνατί τοῦτο ἐξῆλθον ἐκ μήτρας, τοῦ βλέπειν κόπους καὶ πόνους, καὶ διετέλεσαν ἐν αἰσχύνῃ αἱ ἡμέραι μου;
18 ¿Para qué salí del vientre? ¿para ver trabajo y dolor, y que mis días se gastasen en afrenta?
18 Why did I come out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
