WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 ¡Canta, mujer estéril! ¡Prorrumpe en grande y jubiloso cántico, Jerusalén, porque la que había sido abandonada tiene más bendiciones que la que conservó su marido!
1 “Sing, barren, you who didn’t give birth! Break out into singing, and cry aloud, you who didn’t travail with child! For more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife,” says Yahweh.
2 ¡Amplía tu casa, construye cuartos adicionales, ensancha tu morada
2 “Enlarge the place of your tent, and let them stretch out the curtains of your habitations; don’t spare; lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes.
3 porque pronto no tendrás espacio! Tus descendientes poseerán las ciudades que habían quedado durante el exilio y gobernarán a las naciones que se apoderaron de su tierra.
3 For you will spread out on the right hand and on the left; and your offspring will possess the nations and settle in desolate cities.
4 No temas, ya no vivirás avergonzada. La vergüenza de tu juventud y el dolor de la viudez no se recordarán más,
4 “Don’t be afraid, for you will not be ashamed. Don’t be confounded, for you will not be disappointed. For you will forget the shame of your youth. You will remember the reproach of your widowhood no more.
5 porque tu Creador será el «esposo» tuyo. Señor Todopoderoso es su nombre; él es tu Redentor, el Santo de Israel, el Dios de toda la tierra.
5 For your Maker is your husband; Yahweh of Armies is his name. The Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer. He will be called the God of the whole earth.
6 Porque el Señor te ha llamado para que dejes tu dolor, joven esposa abandonada por tu marido.
6 For Yahweh has called you as a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, even a wife of youth, when she is cast off,” says your God.
7 Por un breve momento te abandoné, pero con mucha compasión te tomaré de nuevo.
7 “For a small moment I have forsaken you, but I will gather you with great mercies.
8 En un momento de ira no quise saber nada de ti, pero con amor eterno nuevamente tendré compasión de ti, dice el Señor, tu Redentor.
8 In overflowing wrath I hid my face from you for a moment, but with everlasting loving kindness I will have mercy on you,” says Yahweh your Redeemer.
9 Así como en días de Noé juré que jamás permitiría que la inundación de las aguas cubriera la tierra y destruyera su vida, juro ahora que jamás volveré a derramar mi ira sobre ti como lo hice durante el exilio.
9 “For this is like the waters of Noah to me; for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah will no more go over the earth, so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you, nor rebuke you.
10 Podrán los montes marcharse y desaparecer las colinas, pero la misericordia mía no te dejará. Jamás será quebrantada mi promesa de paz para ti, dice el Señor, quien tiene misericordia de ti.
10 For the mountains may depart, and the hills be removed, but my loving kindness will not depart from you, and my covenant of peace will not be removed,” says Yahweh who has mercy on you.
11 ¡Oh afligido pueblo mío, atormentado y atribulado, volveré a construir para ti cimiento de zafiros, y de piedras preciosas haré los muros de tus casas!
11 “You afflicted, tossed with storms, and not comforted, behold, I will set your stones in beautiful colors, and lay your foundations with sapphires.
12 De ágata resplandeciente construiré tus torres, y tus puertas y murallas serán de fulgurantes gemas.
12 I will make your pinnacles of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones.
13 Y yo seré el maestro de todos tus ciudadanos y grande será la prosperidad de ellos.
13 All your children will be taught by Yahweh, and your children’s peace will be great.
14 Serás regida por un gobierno justo y honrado. Tus enemigos se mantendrán a distancia, vivirás en paz, el terror no se acercará.
14 You will be established in righteousness. You will be far from oppression, for you will not be afraid, and far from terror, for it shall not come near you.
15 Si alguna nación acude a combatirte, no será enviada por mí como castigo; por lo tanto será derrotada, porque yo estoy de tu parte.
15 Behold, they may gather together, but not by me. Whoever gathers together against you will fall because of you.
16 Yo he creado al herrero que desde abajo de la fragua da viento a los carbones y fabrica las armas destructivas. Yo he creado los ejércitos que destruyen.
16 “Behold, I have created the blacksmith who fans the coals into flame, and forges a weapon for his work; and I have created the destroyer to destroy.
17 Pero aquel día ninguna arma que se vuelva contra ti triunfará, y se te hará justicia contra toda calumnia que se esgrima en los tribunales. Esta es la herencia de los siervos del Señor, esta es la bendición que te he dado, dice el Señor.
17 No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is of me,” says 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).
… than from the Jews and Samaritans, we will produce: it ran thus: "Rejoice, O barren, thou that dost not bear; break forth and shout, thou that dost not travail, because many more are the children of the desolate than of her that hath an husband." For all the Gentiles were "desolate" of the true God, serving the works of their …
… and I will lay thy ramparts with jasper, and thy gates with crystal, and thy wall with choice stones: and all thy children shall be taught of God, and great shall be the peace of thy children; and in righteousness shalt thou be built up." And yet again does he say the same thing: "Behold, I make Jerusalem a rejoicing, …
He says, "Rejoice, O barren, thou that barest not; break forth and cry, thou that didst not travail with child: for many more are the children of the desolate than of her that has an husband." But these must suffice; and some things in them ought to be expounded; yet I think those parts sufficient which are so plain that …
