WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 »Hombre mortal, toma una espada afilada y empléala como navaja de peluquero para afeitar tu cabeza y barba; emplea luego una balanza para pesar el pelo en tres partes iguales.
1 “You, son of man, take a sharp sword. You shall take it as a barber’s razor to yourself, and shall cause it to pass over your head and over your beard. Then take balances to weigh and divide the hair.
2 Coloca un tercio en el centro del mapa de Jerusalén. Quémalo allí después del sitio. Esparce otro tercio por tu mapa y da cuchilladas sobre él. Esparce el último tercio al viento, pues yo perseguiré a mi pueblo con los terrores de la guerra.
2 A third part you shall burn in the fire in the middle of the city, when the days of the siege are fulfilled. You shall take a third part, and strike with the sword around it. A third part you shall scatter to the wind, and I will draw out a sword after them.
3 Conserva sólo un poco del pelo atrapándolo con tu manto;
3 You shall take a small number of these and bind them in the folds of your robe.
4 luego saca unos pocos pelos y arrójalos al fuego, pues este poco representa un grupo de sobrevivientes del que posteriormente vendrá alguien como un fuego contra Israel».
4 Of these again you shall take, and cast them into the middle of the fire, and burn them in the fire. From it a fire will come out into all the house of Israel.
5 El Señor Dios dice: «Todo esto ilustra lo que sucederá a Jerusalén, pues se ha apartado de mis instrucciones y consejos y ha sido aún más perversa que las naciones que la rodean. Este es el motivo por el que será castigada con tanta severidad.
5 “The Lord Yahweh says: ‘This is Jerusalem. I have set her in the middle of the nations, and countries are around her.
6 Not in this translation
6 She has rebelled against my ordinances in doing wickedness more than the nations, and against my statutes more than the countries that are around her; for they have rejected my ordinances, and as for my statutes, they have not walked in them.’
7 Not in this translation
7 “Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: ‘Because you are more turbulent than the nations that are around you, and have not walked in my statutes, neither have kept my ordinances, neither have followed the ordinances of the nations that are around you;
8 Por eso el Señor Dios dice: Yo mismo estoy contra ustedes y los castigaré públicamente mientras todas las naciones vecinas observan.
8 therefore the Lord Yahweh says: ‘Behold, I, even I, am against you; and I will execute judgments among you in the sight of the nations.
9 A causa de las graves maldades que han cometido yo los castigaré en forma más severa de lo que jamás he hecho antes o lo haré después.
9 I will do in you that which I have not done, and which I will not do anything like it any more, because of all your abominations.
10 Los padres y los hijos se devorarán mutuamente, y aquellos que sobrevivan serán esparcidos por todo el mundo.
10 Therefore the fathers will eat the sons within you, and the sons will eat their fathers. I will execute judgments on you; and I will scatter the whole remnant of you to all the winds.
11 »Pues yo les aseguro: Porque han profanado mi templo llenándolo con ídolos y ofreciendo sacrificios rituales para ellos, entonces yo no los perdonaré ni les tendré piedad.
11 Therefore as I live,’ says the Lord Yahweh, ‘surely, because you have defiled my sanctuary with all your detestable things, and with all your abominations, therefore I will also diminish you. My eye won’t spare, and I will have no pity.
12 Un tercio de ustedes morirá de hambre y peste, otro tercio será muerto por el enemigo y un tercio esparciré en desbandada, enviando a sus enemigos con espada en mano tras ellos.
12 A third part of you will die with the pestilence, and they will be consumed with famine within you. A third part will fall by the sword around you. A third part I will scatter to all the winds, and will draw out a sword after them.
13 Luego, por fin, mi cólera será desahogada. ¡Entonces todo Israel sabrá que aquello que advierto, también lo cumplo!
13 “‘Thus my anger will be accomplished, and I will cause my wrath toward them to rest, and I will be comforted. They will know that I, Yahweh, have spoken in my zeal, when I have accomplished my wrath on them.
14 »Así haré un ejemplo público de ustedes entre todas las naciones en derredor y ante todos los que pasen por entre las ruinas de su tierra. Quienes los vean se reirán y burlarán de ustedes.
14 “‘Moreover I will make you a desolation and a reproach among the nations that are around you, in the sight of all that pass by.
15 Llegarán a ser el hazmerreír del mundo y un terrible ejemplo a todos, para que vean lo que sucede cuando el Señor se la toma contra una nación entera en reprensión furiosa. Yo, el Señor, lo he dicho.
15 So it will be a reproach and a taunt, an instruction and an astonishment, to the nations that are around you, when I execute judgments on you in anger and in wrath, and in wrathful rebukes—I, Yahweh, have spoken it—
16 »Les castigaré con hambrunas severas para destruirlos. El hambre se acrecentará hasta que no quede ni un pedazo de pan.
16 when I send on them the evil arrows of famine that are for destruction, which I will send to destroy you. I will increase the famine on you and will break your staff of bread.
17 Y no sólo sobrevendrá hambre, sino que las fieras los atacarán y los matarán a ustedes y a sus familias; la enfermedad y la guerra los cazarán, y las espadas de los enemigos se encargarán de terminar la obra destructiva. Yo, el Señor, lo he dicho».
17 I will send on you famine and evil animals, and they will bereave you. Pestilence and blood will pass through you. I will bring the sword on you. I, Yahweh, have spoken it.’”

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).
And when any one surpasses in negligence those who are far inferior; wherewith in Ezekiel He doth charge them, saying, "Not even according to the judgments of the nations hast thou done." And when one is not sobered even by the examples of others, "She saw her sister," it is said, "and justified her." And when one has had the …
