WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Pero en los últimos días, la montaña sobre la cual se asienta el templo del Señor se convertirá en la más famosa montaña del mundo, será la colina más elogiada de la tierra; personas de todas las naciones del mundo irán a visitarla.
1 But in the latter days, it will happen that the mountain of Yahweh’s temple will be established on the top of the mountains, and it will be exalted above the hills; and peoples will stream to it.
2 Pueblos numerosos llegarán y dirán: «Vengan, subamos al monte del Señor, entremos al templo del Dios de Israel para que él nos diga qué debemos hacer. Y nosotros seguiremos sus enseñanzas». Porque de Sion, esto es, de Jerusalén, saldrá la instrucción del Señor, la sabiduría y la justicia para vivir en paz.
2 Many nations will go and say, “Come! Let’s go up to the mountain of Yahweh, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For the law will go out of Zion, and Yahweh’s word from Jerusalem;
3 El Señor juzgará con justicia entre muchas naciones, y será quien corrija a muchos pueblos poderosos y lejanos. Esas naciones dejarán de vivir obsesionadas con la guerra, convertirán sus espadas de guerra en azadones, y sus lanzas en podaderas. Ya no se entrenarán para la guerra, ni guerrearán entre ellas.
3 and he will judge between many peoples, and will decide concerning strong nations afar off. They will beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will they learn war any more.
4 Cada persona podrá vivir tranquila bajo su viña o su higuera, sin que nadie le robe su paz. ¡El Señor Todopoderoso lo ha prometido!
4 But every man will sit under his vine and under his fig tree. No one will make them afraid, for the mouth of Yahweh of Armies has spoken.
5 ¡Aunque las otras naciones sigan a sus propios dioses, nosotros siempre seguiremos y obedeceremos sólo al Señor nuestro Dios!
5 Indeed all the nations may walk in the name of their gods, but we will walk in the name of Yahweh our God forever and ever.
6 Lo siguiente afirma el Señor: «En ese día haré que mi pueblo, al que había castigado, regrese a su tierra. Los reuniré con cuidado, como un pastor que se preocupa por una oveja herida o una que extravió el camino a su redil.
6 “In that day,” says Yahweh, “I will assemble that which is lame, and I will gather that which is driven away, and that which I have afflicted;
7 Con los pocos que hayan quedado, aunque estén heridos o confusos, haré una nación poderosa. Yo mismo seré su Rey y la gobernaré para siempre desde Jerusalén.
7 and I will make that which was lame a remnant, and that which was cast far off a strong nation: and Yahweh will reign over them on Mount Zion from then on, even forever.”
8 Y tú, Jerusalén, ciudad fuerte edificada sobre el monte Sion, volverás a tener el poderío de antes, pues nuevamente serás la capital del reino».
8 You, tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, to you it will come. Yes, the former dominion will come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Y ahora, ¿por qué haces tanto alboroto? ¿Es que no tienes rey? ¿Acaso se murieron tus consejeros, para que te retuerzas de dolor como una mujer que está a punto de dar a luz?
9 Now why do you cry out aloud? Is there no king in you? Has your counselor perished, that pains have taken hold of you as of a woman in travail?
10 Retuércete y gime en medio de tu terrible dolor, pueblo de Israel, como una mujer que está a punto de dar a luz, porque tendrás que dejar esta ciudad y vivir en descampado. Serás llevada en exilio a Babilonia. Pero de allí el Señor te rescatará y te librará del poder de tus enemigos.
10 Be in pain, and labor to give birth, daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail; for now you will go out of the city, and will dwell in the field, and will come even to Babylon. There you will be rescued. There Yahweh will redeem you from the hand of your enemies.
11 Muchas naciones se han reunido en tu contra, y gritan: «¡Qué grandioso será ver la derrota de Jerusalén! ¡Será un hermoso espectáculo!».
11 Now many nations have assembled against you, that say, “Let her be defiled, and let our eye gloat over Zion.”
12 Pero ellas no conocen las intenciones del Señor, no tienen ni idea de sus planes. No saben que el Señor las juntará como si fueran manojos de espigas en la era para luego destruirlas.
12 But they don’t know the thoughts of Yahweh, neither do they understand his counsel; for he has gathered them like the sheaves to the threshing floor.
13 ¡Levántate y trilla, hija de Sion! Pues el Señor te dice: «Yo te daré mucho poder, como si tuvieras cuernos de hierro y cascos de bronce, y desmenuzarás con ellos a muchos pueblos; y te daré sus riquezas para que me las entregues como ofrenda a mí, que soy el Señor de toda la tierra».
13 Arise and thresh, daughter of Zion, for I will make your horn iron, and I will make your hoofs bronze. You will beat in pieces many peoples. I will devote their gain to Yahweh, and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.

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).
… "For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem; and He shall rebuke many people; and they shall break down their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks, and they shall no longer learn to fight." If therefore another law and word, going forth from Jerusalem, brought in such a [reign …
And He shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off." This prophet predicts the very place in which Christ was born, saying, "And thou, Bethlehem, of the house of Ephratah, art the least that can be reckoned among the thousands of Judah; out of thee shall come forth unto me a leader, to be the prince in …

Where, O Grave, is thy sting?" And another again, declaring glad tidings of the most profound peace, said, "They shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning hooks." And while one calls on Jerusalem, saying, "Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Sion, for lo!
