WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 El pueblo de Israel continuó su oración: ¡Oh, que surgieras de los cielos y descendieras a la tierra! ¡Cómo se estremecerían los montes en tu presencia!
1 Oh that you would tear the heavens, that you would come down, that the mountains might quake at your presence—
2 El fuego consumidor de tu gloria abrasaría los bosques y haría hervir los océanos hasta secarlos. Ante ti temblarían las naciones; entonces tus enemigos sabrían dar razón de tu fama.
2 as when fire kindles the brushwood, and the fire causes the water to boil. Make your name known to your adversaries, that the nations may tremble at your presence!
3 Así fue antiguamente cuando tú descendiste, pues realizaste obras portentosas, superiores a nuestras más grandes esperanzas, ¡y cómo temblaron los montes!
3 When you did awesome things which we didn’t look for, you came down, and the mountains quaked at your presence.
4 Porque desde que el mundo es mundo nadie vio ni oyó jamás de un Dios como el nuestro, que se manifiesta en favor de los que en él confían.
4 For from of old men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen a God besides you, who works for him who waits for him.
5 Acoges con agrado a quienes alegremente hacen el bien, a quienes van por sendas santas. Pero no somos santos; somos y hemos sido pecadores toda la vida. Por lo tanto, tu ira pesa sobre nosotros. ¿Cómo podrán salvarse las personas que son como nosotros?
5 You meet him who rejoices and does righteousness, those who remember you in your ways. Behold, you were angry, and we sinned. We have been in sin for a long time. Shall we be saved?
6 Estamos completamente contaminados e inmundos de pecado. Todas nuestras buenas obras son como inmundos harapos. Como hojas de otoño nos decoloramos, nos marchitamos y caemos. Como viento, nos arrastran nuestros pecados.
6 For we have all become like one who is unclean, and all our righteousness is like a polluted garment. We all fade like a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
7 Y, sin embargo, nadie invoca tu nombre ni te suplica misericordia. A causa de ello, tú te has apartado de nosotros y nos has abandonado por nuestra maldad.
7 There is no one who calls on your name, who stirs himself up to take hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us, and have consumed us by means of our iniquities.
8 ¡Y no obstante, oh Señor, tú eres nuestro Padre! Somos la arcilla y tú el alfarero: todos fuimos modelados por tu mano.
8 But now, Yahweh, you are our Father. We are the clay and you our potter. We all are the work of your hand.
9 ¡Ay, no estés tan airado con nosotros, Señor, ni recuerdes para siempre nuestros pecados! Mira y ve que todos somos pueblo tuyo.
9 Don’t be furious, Yahweh. Don’t remember iniquity forever. Look and see, we beg you, we are all your people.
10 Tus santas ciudades están destruidas, Jerusalén está desierta.
10 Your holy cities have become a wilderness. Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
11 Nuestro santo y hermoso templo, en donde nuestros padres te alababan, está quemado, y todos sus hermosos objetos destruidos.
11 Our holy and our beautiful house where our fathers praised you is burned with fire. All our pleasant places are laid waste.
12 Después de todo esto, ¿aún te negarás a ayudarnos, Señor? ¿Permanecerás callado y continuarás castigándonos?
12 Will you hold yourself back for these things, Yahweh? Will you keep silent and punish us very severely?

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).
… of our sanctuary has become a curse, and the glory which our fathers blessed is burned up with fire, and all its glorious things are laid waste: and Thou refrainest Thyself at these things, and hast held Thy peace, and hast humbled us very sore." And ye are convinced that Jerusalem has been laid waste, as was predicted.
… the resurrection of the just, and fulfils the promises for the kingdom of His Son; subsequently bestowing in a paternal manner those things which neither the eye has seen, nor the ear has heard, nor has [thought concerning them] arisen within the heart of man, For there is the one Son, who accomplished His Father's will; and one human race …
… things which are before," we were seeking between ourselves in the presence of the Truth, which Thou art, of what nature the eternal life of the saints would be, which eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath entered into the heart of man. But yet we opened wide the mouth of our heart, after those supernal streams of …

Thou art our Father: and we all are clay, the works of Thine hands.

For what we shall yet know, neither eye hath seen, nor ear heard, nor hath it entered the heart of man. For what is faith, but believing what you see not?
