WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Pero el Señor tendrá misericordia de los israelitas, pues todavía son especial posesión suya. Los llevará de regreso para poblar nuevamente la tierra de Israel. Y muchas naciones vendrán y se unirán a ellos allí y serán sus leales aliados.
1 For Yahweh will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land. The foreigner will join himself with them, and they will unite with the house of Jacob.
2 Las naciones del mundo les ayudarán a regresar, y los que lleguen a vivir en su tierra les servirán. Los que esclavicen a Israel serán esclavizados. ¡Israel gobernará a sus enemigos!
2 The peoples will take them, and bring them to their place. The house of Israel will possess them in Yahweh’s land for servants and for handmaids. They will take as captives those whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
3 En el día maravilloso en que el Señor dé a su pueblo reposo de la pena y el temor, de la esclavitud y las cadenas,
3 It will happen in the day that Yahweh will give you rest from your sorrow, from your trouble, and from the hard service in which you were made to serve,
4 ustedes se mofarán del rey de Babilonia y dirán: «¡Grandísimo matón, por fin te llegó tu día,
4 that you will take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, “How the oppressor has ceased! The golden city has ceased!”
5 porque el Señor ha aplastado tu impío poder y ha quebrantado tu perverso gobierno!».
5 Yahweh has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers,
6 Tú perseguiste a mi pueblo con incesantes golpes rabiosos y tuviste a las naciones entre tus crueles garras. La tuya fue una tiranía desenfrenada.
6 who struck the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, who ruled the nations in anger, with a persecution that no one restrained.
7 ¡Mas por fin toda la tierra está en reposo y tranquilidad! Todo el mundo comienza a cantar.
7 The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet. They break out in song.
8 Hasta los árboles de los bosques —los pinos y cedros del Líbano— entonan este cántico jubiloso: «Quebrantado está tu poder, nadie más nos inquietará; por fin tenemos paz».
8 Yes, the cypress trees rejoice with you, with the cedars of Lebanon, saying, “Since you are humbled, no lumberjack has come up against us.”
9 Los moradores del infierno se apiñan para recibirte cuando entras en su dominio. Caudillos de todo el mundo y los más poderosos reyes, muertos hace mucho, están allí para verte.
9 Sheol from beneath has moved for you to meet you at your coming. It stirs up the departed spirits for you, even all the rulers of the earth. It has raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.
10 Exclaman a una voz: «¡Ahora eres tan débil como nosotros!».
10 They all will answer and ask you, “Have you also become as weak as we are? Have you become like us?”
11 Se esfumaron tu grandeza y poder; contigo quedan enterrados. Cesó toda dulce música en tu palacio; ahora tu sábana son larvas y tu frazada, gusanos.
11 Your pomp is brought down to Sheol, with the sound of your stringed instruments. Maggots are spread out under you, and worms cover you.
12 ¡Cómo caíste del cielo, oh Lucifer, hijo de la aurora! ¡Cómo has sido derribado en tierra, tú que fuiste tan poderoso luchando contra las naciones del mundo!
12 How you have fallen from heaven, shining one, son of the dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low!
13 Porque te extasiabas pensando: «Subiré al cielo y gobernaré a los ángeles.
13 You said in your heart, “I will ascend into heaven! I will exalt my throne above the stars of God! I will sit on the mountain of assembly, in the far north!
14 Treparé hasta lo más elevado del cielo y seré como el Altísimo».
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds! I will make myself like the Most High!”
15 Pero en vez de ello, serás hundido en lo más profundo del abismo infernal.
15 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, to the depths of the pit.
16 Allá todos te mirarán con asombro y preguntarán: «¿Será este aquel que hacía temblar la tierra y los reinos del mundo?
16 Those who see you will stare at you. They will ponder you, saying, “Is this the man who made the earth to tremble, who shook kingdoms,
17 ¿Será este aquel que destruía el mundo, convirtiéndolo en un degolladero, demoliendo sus grandes ciudades sin tener misericordia de sus prisioneros?».
17 who made the world like a wilderness, and overthrew its cities, who didn’t release his prisoners to their home?”
18 En regia gloria reposan en sus tumbas los reyes de las naciones,
18 All the kings of the nations sleep in glory, everyone in his own house.
19 pero tu cuerpo está tirado como si fuera rama desgajada; yace en un sepulcro abierto, cubierto por los cadáveres de los muertos en batalla; yace como carroña en el camino, pisoteado y deshecho por los cascos de los caballos.
19 But you are cast away from your tomb like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain who are thrust through with the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit; like a dead body trodden under foot.
20 Para ti no habrá monumento, porque has destruido a tu nación y has asesinado a tu pueblo. Tu hijo no te sucederá en el trono.
20 You will not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land. You have killed your people. The offspring of evildoers will not be named forever.
21 Maten a los hijos de este pecador. No dejen que se levanten a conquistar la tierra ni a reconstruir las ciudades del mundo.
21 Prepare for slaughter of his children because of the iniquity of their fathers, that they not rise up and possess the earth, and fill the surface of the world with cities.
22 Yo mismo me he alzado contra él, dice el Señor Todopoderoso, y troncharé a sus hijos y a los hijos de sus hijos para que jamás se sienten en su trono.
22 “I will rise up against them,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and cut off from Babylon name and remnant, and son and son’s son,” says Yahweh.
23 Convertiré a Babilonia en páramo para los puercoespines, lleno de pantanos y ciénagas. Barreré el país con escoba de destrucción, dice el Señor Todopoderoso.
23 “I will also make it a possession for the porcupine, and pools of water. I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,” says Yahweh of Armies.
24 Dios ha jurado hacerlo, diciendo: Tal es mi propósito y mi plan.
24 Yahweh of Armies has sworn, saying, “Surely, as I have thought, so shall it happen; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:
25 He resuelto quebrantar el ejército asirio cuando esté en Israel, y aplastarlo en mis montes. Mi pueblo no será más esclavo suyo.
25 that I will break the Assyrian in my land, and tread him under foot on my mountains. Then his yoke will leave them, and his burden leave their shoulders.
26 Este es mi plan para toda la tierra; lo realizaré por mi gran poder que alcanza toda la redondez del mundo.
26 This is the plan that is determined for the whole earth. This is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
27 El Señor, el Dios de la batalla, ha hablado; ¿quién podrá cambiar sus planes? Cuando su mano se mueve, ¿quién puede detenerlo?
27 For Yahweh of Armies has planned, and who can stop it? His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?”
28 Esta es la comunicación que recibí el año que murió el rey Acaz:
28 This burden was in the year that King Ahaz died.
29 No se regocijen, filisteos, de que haya muerto el rey que los hería. Cierto que esa vara está quebrada, pero su hijo será para ustedes peor azote de lo que fue su padre. De la serpiente nacerá una víbora, una víbora de fuego que los destruirá.
29 Don’t rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod that struck you is broken; for out of the serpent’s root an adder will emerge, and his fruit will be a fiery flying serpent.
30 Yo pastorearé a los pobres de mi pueblo; ellos pacerán en mis pastos. En paz se acostarán los menesterosos. Pero a ti, a ti te raeré mediante el hambre y la espada.
30 The firstborn of the poor will eat, and the needy will lie down in safety; and I will kill your root with famine, and your remnant will be killed.
31 Lloren, ciudades filisteas, condenadas están. Condenada está toda su nación, porque un ejército perfectamente entrenado baja desde el norte contra ti.
31 Howl, gate! Cry, city! You are melted away, Philistia, all of you; for smoke comes out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks.
32 ¿Y qué les diremos a los cronistas? Díganles que el Señor fundó a Jerusalén y él ha resuelto que los pobres de entre su pueblo hallen refugio dentro de sus muros.
32 What will they answer the messengers of the nation? That Yahweh has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people will take refuge.

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).
… loved and feared, not for Thy sake, but in Thy stead, by which means, being made like unto him, he may have them as his, not in harmony of love, but in the fellowship of punishment; who aspired to exalt his throne in the north, that dark and cold they might serve him, imitating Thee in perverse and distorted ways.

Such an one was he that saith, "I will exalt my throne above the Heavens." and did not account himself to be worthy so much as of the title of the apostles, after so many and so great deeds of goodness.

And how do they answer the prophetic proofs,--either what Isaiah says when he represents the devil under the person of the king of Babylon, "How art thou fallen, O Lucifer, son of the morning!" or what Ezekiel says, "Thou hast been in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering," where it is meant that he was …

For example, what is said in Isaiah, "How he is fallen from heaven, Lucifer, son of the morning!" and the other statements of the context which, under the figure of the king of Babylon, are made about the same person, are of course to be understood of the devil; and yet the statement which is made in the same place, …
