WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 La fuerza del Señor vino sobre mí y fui llevado por el Espíritu del Señor a un valle lleno de huesos viejos y secos que estaban esparcidos por todas partes sobre el suelo.
1 Yahweh’s hand was on me, and he brought me out in Yahweh’s Spirit, and set me down in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones.
2 Él me hizo pasar entre ellos, y luego me dijo: ―Hombre mortal, ¿pueden estos huesos llegar a ser gente viva de nuevo?
2 He caused me to pass by them all around; and behold, there were very many in the open valley, and behold, they were very dry.
3 Yo respondí: ―Señor, solo tú sabes la respuesta a eso.
3 He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” I answered, “Lord Yahweh, you know.”
4 Luego me dijo que hablara a los huesos y les dijera: «Oh huesos secos, escuchen las palabras del Señor,
4 Again he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones, and tell them, ‘You dry bones, hear Yahweh’s word.
5 quien dice: “¡Yo los haré revivir y respirar de nuevo!
5 The Lord Yahweh says to these bones: “Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you will live.
6 ¡Volveré a colocar músculos y tendones sobre ustedes y los cubriré con piel! ¡Pondré aliento en ustedes y volverán a respirar y a vivir y sabrán que yo soy el Señor!”».
6 I will lay sinews on you, and will bring up flesh on you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you will live. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.”’”
7 Así pues, dije estas palabras de Dios, tal como él me mandó a hacerlo, y repentinamente hubo un ruido de agitación por todo el valle y los huesos de cada cuerpo se juntaron y se unieron tal como antes.
7 So I prophesied as I was commanded. As I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, there was an earthquake. Then the bones came together, bone to its bone.
8 Luego, mientras observaba, los músculos y la carne se formaron sobre los huesos y la piel los cubrió, pero los cuerpos no tenían aliento, que es la vida.
8 I saw, and, behold, there were sinews on them, and flesh came up, and skin covered them above; but there was no breath in them.
9 Entonces me dijo el Señor que llamara al aliento de vida, el Espíritu, y le dijera: «El Señor Dios dice: “¡Ven de los cuatro vientos, oh Espíritu, y sopla sobre estos cuerpos muertos, para que puedan volver a respirar y vivir!
9 Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and tell the wind, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “Come from the four winds, breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live.”’”
10 Y hablé al aliento de vida tal como el Señor me había mandado, y los cuerpos comenzaron a respirar, volvieron a la vida y se pusieron de pie, como si fueran un poderoso ejército”».
10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up on their feet, an exceedingly great army.
11 Luego el Señor me explicó lo que la visión significaba: «Estos huesos, me dijo, representan a todo el pueblo de Israel. Ellos dicen: “¡Hemos llegado a ser como un montón de huesos secos; toda esperanza se ha ido de nosotros!”.
11 Then he said to me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, ‘Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost. We are completely cut off.’
12 Pero diles que el Señor Dios dice: “¡Pueblo mío, yo abriré los sepulcros del exilio y los haré subir de nuevo y volver a la tierra de Israel!
12 Therefore prophesy, and tell them, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, my people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel.
13 ¡Y entonces por fin, oh pueblo mío, sabrán que yo soy el Señor!
13 You will know that I am Yahweh, when I have opened your graves and caused you to come up out of your graves, my people.
14 »”¡Yo pondré mi aliento de vida, el Espíritu, en ustedes y vivirán y volverán a su hogar en su tierra! Entonces sabrán que yo, el Señor, he hecho exactamente lo que prometí hacer”».
14 I will put my Spirit in you, and you will live. Then I will place you in your own land; and you will know that I, Yahweh, have spoken it and performed it,” says Yahweh.’”
15 De nuevo me vino un mensaje del Señor, diciendo:
15 Yahweh’s word came again to me, saying,
16 «Toma un palo y graba sobre él estas palabras: “Este palo representa a Judá y sus tribus aliadas”. Luego toma otro palo y graba estas palabras sobre él: “Este palo representa a todas las otras tribus de Israel”.
16 “You, son of man, take one stick and write on it, ‘For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions.’ Then take another stick, and write on it, ‘For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions.’
17 Ahora sostenlos juntos en tu mano como si fueran un solo palo.
17 Then join them for yourself to one another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand.
18 »Dile luego a esta gente (sosteniendo los palos para que ellos puedan ver lo que estás haciendo): El Señor Dios dice: “¡Yo tomaré las tribus de Israel y las juntaré a Judá y las convertiré en un solo pueblo, como si fueran este palo en mi mano!”.
18 “When the children of your people speak to you, saying, ‘Won’t you show us what you mean by these?’
19 Not in this translation
19 tell them, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions; and I will put them with it, with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they will be one in my hand.
20 Not in this translation
20 The sticks on which you write will be in your hand before their eyes.”’
21 Pues el Señor Dios dice: “¡Yo estoy juntando al pueblo de Israel de entre las naciones y trayéndolo de vuelta, de alrededor de todo el mundo, a su propia tierra,
21 Say to them, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land.
22 para reunirlo como una sola nación! Un rey reinará sobre todos ellos y ya no estarán más tiempo divididos en dos naciones.
22 I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel. One king will be king to them all. They will no longer be two nations. They won’t be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.
23 Ellos dejarán de pervertirse con sus idolatrías y demás maldades, pues yo los salvaré de toda esta inmundicia. Entonces, verdaderamente ellos serán mi pueblo y yo seré su Dios.
23 They won’t defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions; but I will save them out of all their dwelling places in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. So they will be my people, and I will be their God.
24 Y entonces mi servidor David será su rey, su único pastor; y ellos seguirán mis instrucciones y todos mis deseos.
24 “‘“My servant David will be king over them. They all will have one shepherd. They will also walk in my ordinances and observe my statutes, and do them.
25 Ellos vivirán en la tierra de Israel donde sus antepasados vivieron, la tierra que yo di a mi siervo Jacob. Ellos, sus hijos e hijas, y sus nietos y nietas, por todas las generaciones futuras. Y mi servidor David será su Príncipe para siempre.
25 They will dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob my servant, in which your fathers lived. They will dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children’s children, forever. David my servant will be their prince forever.
26 Y yo haré un convenio de paz con ellos, un convenio eterno. Yo los llenaré con toda clase de bienes y los multiplicaré y pondré mi templo entre ellos para siempre.
26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them. It will be an everlasting covenant with them. I will place them, multiply them, and will set my sanctuary among them forever more.
27 Y viviré para siempre entre ellos. Sí, yo seré su Dios y ellos serán mi pueblo.
27 My tent also will be with them. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
28 ¡Y cuando mi templo permanezca entre ellos, entonces las naciones sabrán que yo, el Señor, he elegido a Israel para llenarlo de toda clase de bienes especiales!”».
28 The nations will know that I am Yahweh who sanctifies Israel, when my sanctuary is among them forever more.”’”

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).
… bring you forth out of your graves; when I will draw my people from the sepulchres, and I will put breath in you, and ye shall live; and I will place you on your own land, and ye shall know that I am the Lord." And again the same speaks thus: "These things saith the Lord, I will gather Israel …
And my servant David shall be king over them, and there shall be one Shepherd for them all." Chapter 35 — Of the Prophecy of the Three Prophets, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi There remain three minor prophets, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi, who prophesied at the close of the captivity.
