WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Este es el mensaje que el Señor tiene acerca de Israel: El Señor, que hizo los cielos, que puso los fundamentos de la tierra y que le dio vida al ser humano, dice esto:
1 A revelation of Yahweh’s word concerning Israel: Yahweh, who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him says:
2 «Haré que Jerusalén sea como una copa de vino que embriague a los pueblos vecinos. También Judá, como Jerusalén, será sitiada.
2 “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of reeling to all the surrounding peoples, and it will also be on Judah in the siege against Jerusalem.
3 Entonces todos los pueblos se juntarán para atacarla. Pero, en ese día, haré que Jerusalén sea como una piedra pesada a la que todos tratarán de levantar. Sin embargo, todos los que lo hagan van a fracasar, y quedarán aplastados debajo de ella.
3 It will happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples. All who burden themselves with it will be severely wounded, and all the nations of the earth will be gathered together against it.
4 »En aquel día», dice el Señor, «yo espantaré a todos los caballos, y enloqueceré a todos los jinetes. Ese día dejaré ciegos a todos los caballos de los pueblos, pero cuidaré con toda atención a mi pueblo Judá.
4 In that day,” says Yahweh, “I will strike every horse with terror and his rider with madness. I will open my eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.
5 Entonces los jefes de Judá dirán: “¡El Señor Todopoderoso es la fortaleza de Jerusalén! ¡En él basan su gran fuerza!”.
5 The chieftains of Judah will say in their heart, ‘The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in Yahweh of Armies their God.’
6 »En ese tiempo haré que los jefes de Judá sean como un pequeño fuego que enciende un gran bosque, como antorcha encendida entre las gavillas de paja seca; acabarán con las naciones vecinas como lo hace el fuego con la paja, mientras Jerusalén quedará inconmovible, y volverá a ser habitada.
6 In that day I will make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire among wood, and like a flaming torch among sheaves. They will devour all the surrounding peoples on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem will yet again dwell in their own place, even in Jerusalem.
7 El Señor salvará, en primer lugar, a las otras familias de Judá, antes que a la familia de David. De ese modo, todos entenderán que para el Señor todos los miembros de su pueblo son de igual valor. Así que la familia de David no podrá pensar que es más importante que las otras.
7 Yahweh also will save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of David’s house and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem not be magnified above Judah.
8 »En ese tiempo, el Señor defenderá al pueblo de Jerusalén; el más débil de sus habitantes será tan poderoso como el rey David. Y la descendencia real será como Dios mismo, como el ángel del Señor que va delante de ellos.
8 In that day Yahweh will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem. He who is feeble among them at that day will be like David, and David’s house will be like God, like Yahweh’s angel before them.
9 »En ese tiempo, destruiré a todas las naciones que se movilicen para atacar a Jerusalén.
9 It will happen in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10 Entonces llenaré las vidas de los habitantes de Jerusalén de espíritu de gracia y oración, y ellos pondrán su atención en mí, a quien traspasaron, y se lamentarán de su antiguo error como se llora la muerte de un primogénito, habrá luto como si se les hubiera muerto el hijo mayor.
10 I will pour on David’s house and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of supplication. They will look to me whom they have pierced; and they shall mourn for him as one mourns for his only son, and will grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for his firstborn.
11 »En aquel día, el lamento que habrá en Jerusalén será tan grande como el que los paganos hacen por su dios Hadad Rimón en el valle de Meguido.
11 In that day there will be a great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddo.
12 »Todo Israel llorará con profundo pesar. Toda la nación hará lamento con una aflicción que será general: rey, profeta, sacerdote y pueblo. Cada familia, por separado, llorará y hará duelo. Será igual para la familia de David, la de Natán, la de Leví, la de Simí, y todas las demás. Hombres y mujeres llorarán por igual. Cada familia llorará su propia tragedia, y también se hará duelo por el destino de todo el pueblo.
12 The land will mourn, every family apart; the family of David’s house apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;
13 Not in this translation
13 the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of the Shimeites apart, and their wives apart;
14 Not in this translation
14 all the families who remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.

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 David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and mercy; and they shall look upon me because they have insulted me, and they shall mourn for Him as for one very dear, and shall be in bitterness as for an only-begotten." To whom but to God does it belong to destroy all the nations that are …

For concerning our soul the Scripture says, His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return to his earth: and of the same soul it says again, Which formeth the spirit of man within him.
