1 Entonces me vino este mensaje de parte del Señor:
1 Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
2 «Hombre mortal, profetiza contra los falsos profetas de Israel, quienes están inventado sus propias visiones y pretendiendo tener mensajes de parte mía cuando yo no les he comunicado absolutamente nada. ¡Ay de ellos!
2 “Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who prophesy, and say to those who prophesy out of their own heart, ‘Hear Yahweh’s word:
3 Not in this translation
3 The Lord Yahweh says, “Woe to the foolish prophets, who follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
4 ¡Oh Israel, estos “profetas” tuyos son tan ineptos como los zorros para reconstruir muros!
4 Israel, your prophets have been like foxes in the waste places.
5 ¡Oh profetas perversos!, ¿qué han hecho para fortalecer las murallas de Israel contra sus enemigos, fortaleciendo a Israel, comunicándoles con fidelidad las instrucciones del Señor?
5 You have not gone up into the gaps or built up the wall for the house of Israel, to stand in the battle in Yahweh’s day.
6 En vez de ello han mentido cuando dijeron: “Mi mensaje es de Dios”. Dios no los envió y, sin embargo, esperan que él cumpla sus profecías inventadas.
6 They have seen falsehood and lying divination, who say, ‘Yahweh says;’ but Yahweh has not sent them. They have made men to hope that the word would be confirmed.
7 ¿Pueden negar que pretendieron haber tenido visiones que nunca vieron, y que han dicho: “Este mensaje es de Dios”, cuando jamás les he comunicado nada a ustedes?
7 Haven’t you seen a false vision, and haven’t you spoken a lying divination, in that you say, ‘Yahweh says;’ but I have not spoken?”
8 »Por lo tanto, el Señor Dios dice: Yo acabaré con ustedes por estas “visiones” y mentiras que han inventado.
8 “‘Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: “Because you have spoken falsehood and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you,” says the Lord Yahweh.
9 Mi enojo se dirigirá en contra de ustedes y serán eliminados de entre los jefes de Israel; borraré sus nombres de entre mi pueblo y no verán más su propio país. Y así sabrán que yo soy el Señor.
9 “My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and who utter lying divinations. They will not be in the council of my people, neither will they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither will they enter into the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord Yahweh.”
10 Pues estos hombres perversos engañan a mi pueblo, diciendo: “Dios enviará paz”, cuando ese no es mi plan. ¡Mi pueblo lleno de falsa confianza construye una pared endeble que no lo podrá proteger, y estos profetas le alaban por ello, y la blanquean con cal!
10 “‘Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, “Peace;” and there is no peace. When one builds up a wall, behold, they plaster it with whitewash.
11 »Diles a estos constructores perversos que su pared se caerá: ¡un aguacero la minará, grandes piedras de granizo y poderosos vientos la derribarán!
11 Tell those who plaster it with whitewash that it will fall. There will be an overflowing shower; and you, great hailstones, will fall. A stormy wind will tear it.
12 Y cuando la pared caiga, la gente exclamará: “¿Por qué no nos dijeron que no aguantaba? ¿Por qué la blanquearon y solo disimularon sus grietas?”.
12 Behold, when the wall has fallen, won’t it be said to you, “Where is the plaster with which you have plastered it?”
13 Sí, seguro que caerá. El Señor dice: “¡Yo la derribaré con una tormenta de indignación y un gran aguacero de enojo y con piedras de granizo de cólera!
13 “‘Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: “I will even tear it with a stormy wind in my wrath. There will be an overflowing shower in my anger, and great hailstones in wrath to consume it.
14 Destruiré su pared blanqueada y caerá sobre ustedes y los aplastará. Hasta los cimientos quedarán a la vista y sabrán entonces que yo soy el Señor”.
14 So I will break down the wall that you have plastered with whitewash, and bring it down to the ground, so that its foundation will be uncovered. It will fall, and you will be consumed in the middle of it. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.
15 Entonces por fin mi cólera contra la pared y contra los que la blanquearon será desahogada, y diré: “Tanto la pared como sus constructores han desaparecido,
15 Thus I will accomplish my wrath on the wall, and on those who have plastered it with whitewash. I will tell you, ‘The wall is no more, nor those who plastered it—
16 pues ellos eran profetas mentirosos que pretendían que Jerusalén tendría paz cuando no habría paz, dice el Señor Dios”.
16 to wit, the prophets of Israel who prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and who see visions of peace for her, and there is no peace,’” says the Lord Yahweh.’”
17 »Hombre mortal, habla contra las profetisas quienes también pretenden que el Señor les ha dado sus mensajes.
17 You, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people, who prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy against them,
18 Comunícales que el Señor Dios les dice: “¡Ay de estas mujeres que están engañando a mi pueblo, tanto a jóvenes como ancianos, al atar amuletos mágicos a sus muñecas y proporcionarles velos mágicos y venderles salvaguardas! Rehúsan aun ofrecer ayuda si no sacan provecho de ello. Ustedes creen vender protección a mi pueblo, pero ni ustedes se podrán proteger a sí mismas de mi castigo.
18 and say, “The Lord Yahweh says: ‘Woe to the women who sew magic bands on all elbows and make veils for the head of persons of every stature to hunt souls! Will you hunt the souls of my people and save souls alive for yourselves?
19 Por unos pocos puñados de cebada o un pedazo de pan, ¿han de apartar a mi pueblo de mí? ¡Han conducido a la muerte a aquellos que no debían morir! ¡Y han prometido vida a aquellos que no debían vivir, al mentir a mi pueblo, y cuánto lo aprecian ellos!”.
19 You have profaned me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to kill the souls who should not die and to save the souls alive who should not live, by your lying to my people who listen to lies.’
20 »Por eso el Señor dice: “Yo las aplastaré porque han cazado las almas de mi pueblo como si fueran pájaros con todos sus amuletos y talismanes mágicos. Yo les arrancaré los amuletos y liberaré a mi pueblo como a pájaros de sus jaulas.
20 “Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: ‘Behold, I am against your magic bands, with which you hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms. I will let the souls fly free, even the souls whom you ensnare like birds.
21 Arrancaré los velos mágicos y libraré a mi pueblo del engaño de ustedes; ya no más serán sus víctimas, y sabrán que yo soy el Señor.
21 I will also tear your veils and deliver my people out of your hand; and they will no longer be in your hand to be ensnared. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.
22 Sus mentiras han desalentado a los justos, cuando yo no lo quería. Y sus mentiras han alentado a los perversos prometiéndoles vida, aunque continúan viviendo cometiendo toda clase de maldades.
22 Because with lies you have grieved the heart of the righteous, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, and be saved alive.
23 No mentirán más, ya no hablarán más de tener visiones inexistentes, ni practicarán su magia ni demás engaños, pues yo libraré a mi pueblo de sus trucos, destruyéndolas a ustedes, y sabrán que yo soy el Señor”».
23 Therefore you shall no more see false visions nor practice divination. I will deliver my people out of your hand. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.’”

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).
… the miracle was far beyond words), He added and said, "It is the Lord's doing." And by the stone He means Himself, and by builders the teachers of the Jews; as Ezekiel also saith, "They that build the wall, and daub it with untempered mortar." But how did they reject Him?
