1 Escúchenme todos los que forman parte de mi pueblo; ustedes los que juran lealtad al Señor y lo invocan, pero son unos hipócritas y mentirosos.
1 “Hear this, house of Jacob, you who are called by the name of Israel, and have come out of the waters of Judah. You swear by Yahweh’s name, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness—
2 Sí, porque ustedes ostentan el nombre de «Ciudad Santa» y dicen confiar en el Dios de Israel cuyo nombre es Señor Todopoderoso.
2 for they call themselves citizens of the holy city, and rely on the God of Israel; Yahweh of Armies is his name.
3 Una y otra vez les dije lo que iba a ocurrir en el futuro.
3 I have declared the former things from of old. Yes, they went out of my mouth, and I revealed them. I did them suddenly, and they happened.
4 Yo sabía cuán tercos son. Tienen el cuello tan inflexible como el hierro, tienen la cabeza tan dura como el bronce.
4 Because I knew that you are obstinate, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your brow bronze;
5 Por eso les dije por anticipado lo que iba a hacer, para que no atribuyeran los hechos a sus ídolos, para que jamás pudieran decir: «Lo hizo el ídolo mío, mi imagen esculpida ordenó que sucediera».
5 therefore I have declared it to you from of old; before it came to pass I showed it to you; lest you should say, ‘My idol has done them. My engraved image and my molten image has commanded them.’
6 Han escuchado mis predicciones y las han visto cumplirse, pero se niegan a reconocerlo. Les anunciaré ahora nuevos detalles que jamás había mencionado, secretos que ustedes no han oído.
6 You have heard it. Now see all this. And you, won’t you declare it? “I have shown you new things from this time, even hidden things, which you have not known.
7 Entonces no podrán decir: «¡Ya lo sabíamos!».
7 They are created now, and not from of old. Before today, you didn’t hear them, lest you should say, ‘Behold, I knew them.’
8 Sí, les voy a decir cosas totalmente nuevas, pues bien sé lo traidores que son, rebeldes desde la más tierna infancia, podridos por completo.
8 Yes, you didn’t hear. Yes, you didn’t know. Yes, from of old your ear was not opened, for I knew that you dealt very treacherously, and were called a transgressor from the womb.
9 Mas por mí mismo y por la honra de mi nombre refrenaré mi ira y no los destruiré.
9 For my name’s sake, I will defer my anger, and for my praise, I hold it back for you so that I don’t cut you off.
10 En el horno de aflicción los refiné, pero no encontré plata en ustedes. Carecen de valor; nada bueno hay en ustedes.
10 Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver. I have chosen you in the furnace of affliction.
11 Pero por mí, por amor de mí mismo, los salvaré de mi ira y no los destruiré para que no digan sus dioses que me han vencido. No les permitiré que me arrebaten mi gloria.
11 For my own sake, for my own sake, I will do it; for how would my name be profaned? I will not give my glory to another.
12 ¡Escúchame, pueblo mío, elegido mío! Sólo yo soy Dios. Yo soy el primero, yo soy el último.
12 “Listen to me, O Jacob, and Israel my called: I am he. I am the first. I am also the last.
13 Mi mano fue la que echó los cimientos de la tierra, la palma de mi mano derecha extendió el cielo alto. Hablé y existieron.
13 Yes, my hand has laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand has spread out the heavens. when I call to them, they stand up together.
14 ¡Vengan y escuchen, ustedes todos! Entre todos sus ídolos, ¿cuál les dijo jamás esto: «El Señor ama a Ciro, de él se valdrá para acabar con el Imperio de Babilonia, y derrotará por completo los ejércitos caldeos»?
14 “Assemble yourselves, all of you, and hear! Who among them has declared these things? He whom Yahweh loves will do what he likes to Babylon, and his arm will be against the Chaldeans.
15 Pues yo se los estoy diciendo. Yo he llamado a Ciro, yo le he encomendado esto y haré que prospere.
15 I, even I, have spoken. Yes, I have called him. I have brought him and he shall make his way prosperous.
16 ¡Acérquense más y escuchen! Siempre les he dicho con claridad lo que ocurriría, para que pudieran entender claramente. Y ahora el Señor Dios y su Espíritu me han enviado con este mensaje:
16 “Come near to me and hear this: “From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time that it happened, I was there.” Now the Lord Yahweh has sent me with his Spirit.
17 El Señor, su Redentor, el Santo de Israel, dice: Yo soy el Señor Dios de ustedes, que los castiga para su bien y que los guía por la senda que deben seguir.
17 Yahweh, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, says: “I am Yahweh your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way that you should go.
18 ¡Ay, ojalá que hubieran atendido mis leyes! Entonces habrían disfrutado de paz que fluiría como manso río, y de grandes oleadas de justicia.
18 Oh that you had listened to my commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river and your righteousness like the waves of the sea.
19 Entonces habrían llegado a ser tan numerosos e incontables como los granos de arena de las playas del mundo, y su destrucción no habría sido necesaria.
19 Your offspring also would have been as the sand and the descendants of your body like its grains. His name would not be cut off nor destroyed from before me.”
20 ¡Líbrense de su cautiverio! ¡Salgan de Babilonia, cantando en el camino! ¡Grítenle a los extremos de la tierra que el Señor ha redimido a sus siervos los israelitas!
20 Leave Babylon! Flee from the Chaldeans! With the sound of joyful shouting announce this, tell it even to the end of the earth; say, “Yahweh has redeemed his servant Jacob!”
21 Cuando él los guio por los desiertos, no padecieron sed. Él abrió la roca y de ella brotó agua para que bebieran.
21 They didn’t thirst when he led them through the deserts. He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them. He also split the rock and the waters gushed out.
22 Pero no hay paz para el malvado, dice el Señor.
22 “There is no peace”, says Yahweh, “for the wicked.”

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 now the Lord God and His Spirit hath sent me." It was Himself who was speaking as the Lord God; and yet we should not have understood that it was Jesus Christ had He not added, "And now the Lord God and His Spirit hath sent me." For He said this with reference to the form of a servant, …

And Isaiah, "The Lord God and His Spirit hath sent me," and "the Spirit came down from the Lord and guided them." And pray do not again understand by this guidance some humble service, for the Word witnesses that it was the work of God;--"Thou leddest thy people," it is said "like a flock," and "Thou that leadest Joseph like …

For through the union in subsistence the flesh is said to be deified and to become God and to be equally God with the Word; and God the Word is said to be made flesh, and to become man, and is called creature and last: not in the sense that the two natures are converted into one compound nature …

"For I will hear what the Lord God will speak in me; for He will speak peace unto His people." But "There is no peace," saith the Lord, "to the wicked." "I was dumb, and opened not my mouth; because it is Thou that madest me." Was this the reason that thou openedst not thy mouth, "because God made thee"?

For men are elated by these things, and mad with a kind of joy: but "there is no joy, saith the Lord, unto the wicked." There is a sort of joyfulness which the ear of man hath not heard, nor his eye seen, nor hath it entered into his heart to conceive.
