WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)

1 Cuando Jeroboán se acercaba al altar para quemar el incienso al becerro de oro, vino un profeta de Judá, de parte del Señor, y se le acercó.

1 Behold, a man of God came out of Judah by Yahweh’s word to Bethel; and Jeroboam was standing by the altar to burn incense.

2 Luego a una orden del Señor, el profeta gritó: «¡Altar, altar! El Señor dice que un niño llamado Josías nacerá de la línea de David, y él sacrificará sobre ti a los sacerdotes de los santuarios de las colinas que han venido aquí a quemar incienso; y los huesos de los hombres serán quemados sobre ti».

2 He cried against the altar by Yahweh’s word, and said, “Altar! Altar! Yahweh says: ‘Behold, a son will be born to David’s house, Josiah by name. On you he will sacrifice the priests of the high places who burn incense on you, and they will burn men’s bones on you.’”

3 Entonces, como prueba de que su mensaje era verdadero, les dio una señal ese mismo día. Les dijo: «Este altar se partirá, y las cenizas que hay sobre él serán esparcidas».

3 He gave a sign the same day, saying, “This is the sign which Yahweh has spoken: Behold, the altar will be split apart, and the ashes that are on it will be poured out.”

4 El rey se puso furioso con el profeta por haber dicho esto. Entonces, señalando con su brazo al profeta, gritó a sus guardias: «¡Arresten a este hombre!». Pero instantáneamente el brazo del rey quedó paralizado, de modo que no podía bajarlo.

4 When the king heard the saying of the man of God, which he cried against the altar in Bethel, Jeroboam put out his hand from the altar, saying, “Seize him!” His hand, which he put out against him, dried up, so that he could not draw it back again to himself.

5 En aquel mismo momento apareció una gran grieta en el altar y las cenizas se esparcieron, tal como el profeta había dicho que ocurriría, porque esta era la prueba de que Dios estaba hablando a través de él.

5 The altar was also split apart, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by Yahweh’s word.

6 ―¡Por favor, por favor! —gritaba el rey al profeta—, ruega al Señor tu Dios que restablezca mi brazo nuevamente. Entonces el profeta oró al Señor, y el brazo del rey volvió a la normalidad.

6 The king answered the man of God, “Now intercede for the favor of Yahweh your God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me.” The man of God interceded with Yahweh, and the king’s hand was restored to him, and became as it was before.

7 Entonces el rey le dijo al profeta: ―Ven a mi casa conmigo, reposa un poco y come algo, pues quiero darte un regalo.

7 The king said to the man of God, “Come home with me and refresh yourself, and I will give you a reward.”

8 Pero el profeta le respondió: ―Aun cuando me dieras la mitad de tu palacio, no podría ir contigo; ni tampoco comeré, ni beberé agua en este lugar.

8 The man of God said to the king, “Even if you gave me half of your house, I would not go in with you, neither would I eat bread nor drink water in this place;

9 Porque el Señor me ha dado estrictas órdenes de no comer ni beber agua mientras esté aquí, y de no regresar a Judá por el camino que vine.

9 for so was it commanded me by Yahweh’s word, saying, ‘You shall eat no bread, drink no water, and don’t return by the way that you came.’”

10 Entonces regresó por otro camino.

10 So he went another way, and didn’t return by the way that he came to Bethel.

11 En Betel vivía un anciano profeta. Y sus hijos fueron a casa y le contaron lo que el profeta de Judá había hecho, y lo que había dicho al rey.

11 Now an old prophet lived in Bethel, and one of his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel. They also told their father the words which he had spoken to the king.

12 ―¿Por cuál camino se fue? —preguntó el anciano profeta. Y ellos se lo mostraron.

12 Their father said to them, “Which way did he go?” Now his sons had seen which way the man of God went, who came from Judah.

13 ―Rápido, ensíllenme el burro —dijo el hombre. Y cuando ellos lo ensillaron,

13 He said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” So they saddled the donkey for him; and he rode on it.

14 él cabalgó para ir a alcanzar al profeta, y lo encontró sentado debajo de una encina. ―¿Eres tú el profeta que vino de Judá? —le preguntó. ―Sí —le contestó—, yo soy.

14 He went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak. He said to him, “Are you the man of God who came from Judah?” He said, “I am.”

15 Entonces el anciano le dijo al profeta: ―Ven a mi casa y come conmigo.

15 Then he said to him, “Come home with me and eat bread.”

16 ―No —respondió—, no puedo; porque no puedo comer ni beber nada en Betel. El Señor estrictamente me prohibió que lo hiciera; y también me dijo que no regresara a casa por el mismo camino que vine.

16 He said, “I may not return with you, nor go in with you. I will not eat bread or drink water with you in this place.

17 Not in this translation

17 For it was said to me by Yahweh’s word, ‘You shall eat no bread or drink water there, and don’t turn again to go by the way that you came.’”

18 Pero el anciano le dijo: ―Yo también soy profeta como tú; y un ángel, por orden del Señor, me dijo que debía llevarte a casa conmigo y darte alimento y agua. Pero el anciano mentía.

18 He said to him, “I also am a prophet as you are; and an angel spoke to me by Yahweh’s word, saying, ‘Bring him back with you into your house, that he may eat bread and drink water.’” He lied to him.

19 Entonces regresaron juntos, y el profeta comió y bebió en casa del anciano.

19 So he went back with him, ate bread in his house, and drank water.

20 Repentinamente, mientras estaban sentados a la mesa, le llegó un mensaje del Señor al anciano,

20 As they sat at the table, Yahweh’s word came to the prophet who brought him back;

21 y le gritó al profeta de Judá: ―El Señor dice que por cuanto has sido desobediente a su claro mandato, y has venido aquí, y has comido y bebido agua en el lugar que él te dijo que no lo hicieras, tu cuerpo no será sepultado junto al de tus padres.

21 and he cried out to the man of God who came from Judah, saying, “Yahweh says, ‘Because you have been disobedient to Yahweh’s word, and have not kept the commandment which Yahweh your God commanded you,

22 Not in this translation

22 but came back, and have eaten bread and drank water in the place of which he said to you, “Eat no bread, and drink no water,” your body will not come to the tomb of your fathers.’”

23 Y luego de acabar la comida, el anciano ensilló el burro del profeta.

23 After he had eaten bread and after he drank, he saddled the donkey for the prophet whom he had brought back.

24 Y el profeta emprendió la marcha, pero mientras viajaba solo, salió un león y lo mató. Su cuerpo quedó en el camino, y el burro y el león se quedaron parados junto a él. Los que pasaron y vieron el cuerpo tirado en el camino, y el león tranquilamente parado a su lado, fueron y lo contaron en Betel, donde vivía el profeta anciano.

24 When he had gone, a lion met him by the way and killed him. His body was thrown on the path, and the donkey stood by it. The lion also stood by the body.

25 Not in this translation

25 Behold, men passed by and saw the body thrown on the path, and the lion standing by the body; and they came and told it in the city where the old prophet lived.

26 Cuando el anciano profeta se enteró de lo que le había ocurrido, exclamó: «¡Es el profeta que desobedeció la orden del Señor! Por eso, el Señor cumplió su amenaza e hizo que el león lo matara».

26 When the prophet who brought him back from the way heard of it, he said, “It is the man of God who was disobedient to Yahweh’s word. Therefore Yahweh has delivered him to the lion, which has mauled him and slain him, according to Yahweh’s word which he spoke to him.”

27 Entonces dijo a sus hijos: ―Ensillen mi burro. Y ellos lo hicieron.

27 He said to his sons, saying, “Saddle the donkey for me,” and they saddled it.

28 El anciano profeta salió, y encontró el cuerpo del profeta tirado en el camino, y el burro y el león estaban aún parados junto a él, porque el león no se había comido el cuerpo ni atacado al burro.

28 He went and found his body thrown on the path, and the donkey and the lion standing by the body. The lion had not eaten the body nor mauled the donkey.

29 Entonces el profeta puso el cuerpo en el burro, lo llevó de regreso a la ciudad para hacer duelo por él y para sepultarlo.

29 The prophet took up the body of the man of God, and laid it on the donkey, and brought it back. He came to the city of the old prophet to mourn, and to bury him.

30 Puso el cuerpo en su propia tumba y exclamó: «¡Ay, hermano mío!».

30 He laid his body in his own grave; and they mourned over him, saying, “Alas, my brother!”

31 Después dijo a sus hijos: «Cuando yo muera, sepúltenme en la tumba donde está sepultado el profeta. Pongan mis huesos junto a sus huesos.

31 After he had buried him, he spoke to his sons, saying, “When I am dead, bury me in the tomb in which the man of God is buried. Lay my bones beside his bones.

32 Porque, sin duda alguna, el mensaje que él dio, en nombre del Señor, contra el altar de Betel y contra los santuarios de la ciudad de Samaria se cumplirá».

32 For the saying which he cried by Yahweh’s word against the altar in Bethel, and against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of Samaria, will surely happen.”

33 Pero a pesar de la advertencia del profeta, Jeroboán no se apartó de sus malos caminos. En vez de eso, nombró más sacerdotes de entre la gente del pueblo, para que ofrecieran sacrificios a los ídolos en los santuarios de las colinas. Todo el que quisiera ser sacerdote podía pedirle a Jeroboán que lo nombrara como tal, y él lo hacía.

33 After this thing, Jeroboam didn’t turn from his evil way, but again made priests of the high places from among all the people. Whoever wanted to, he consecrated him, that there might be priests of the high places.

34 Este era un gran pecado, y dio como resultado la destrucción del reinado de Jeroboán, y la muerte de toda su familia.

34 This thing became sin to the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off and to destroy it from off the surface of the earth.

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).

Quotes verse 13:6 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture II)
… standing at the altar sacrificing to the idols: his hand became withered, because he commanded the Prophet who reproved him to be seized: but having by experience learned the power of the man before him, he says, Entreat the face of the Lord thy God; and because of this saying his hand was restored again.
