PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Entonces el sumo sacerdote preguntó: ¿Es esto cierto?
1 The high priest said, “Are these things so?”
1 Εἶπε δὲ ὁ ἀρχιερεύς· εἰ ἄρα ταῦτα οὕτως ἔχει;
2 Y él respondió: Varones hermanos y padres, oigan: El Dios de la gloria apareció a nuestro padre Abraham en Mesopotamia, antes de él vivir en Harán,
2 He said, “Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,
2 ὁ δὲ ἔφη· ἄνδρες ἀδελφοὶ καὶ πατέρες, ἀκούσατε. ὁ Θεὸς τῆς δόξης ὤφθη τῷ πατρὶ ἡμῶν Ἀβραὰμ ὄντι ἐν τῇ Μεσοποταμίᾳ, πρὶν ἢ κατοικῆσαι αὐτὸν ἐν Χαρράν,
3 y le dijo: Sal de tu tierra y de tu parentela, y vé a la tierra que te muestre.
3 and said to him, ‘Get out of your land and away from your relatives, and come into a land which I will show you.’
3 καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτόν· ἔξελθε ἐκ τῆς γῆς σου καὶ ἐκ τῆς συγγενείας σου, καὶ δεῦρο εἰς γῆν ἣν ἄν σοι δείξω.
4 Salió de [la] tierra de [los] caldeos y vivió en Harán. De allí, después de morir su padre, [Dios] lo trasladó a esta tierra donde ustedes viven ahora.
4 Then he came out of the land of the Chaldaeans and lived in Haran. From there, when his father was dead, God moved him into this land where you are now living.
4 τότε ἐξελθὼν ἐκ γῆς Χαλδαίων κατῴκησεν ἐν Χαρράν. κἀκεῖθεν μετὰ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ μετῴκισεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν γῆν ταύτην εἰς ἣν ὑμεῖς νῦν κατοικεῖτε·
5 Pero no le dio herencia en ella, ni siquiera 30 centímetros. Aunque no tenía hijo, le prometió darla en posesión a él y a su descendencia.
5 He gave him no inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on. He promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his offspring after him, when he still had no child.
5 καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ κληρονομίαν ἐν αὐτῇ οὐδὲ βῆμα ποδός, καὶ ἐπηγγείλατο δοῦναι αὐτῷ εἰς κατάσχεσιν αὐτὴν καὶ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτοῦ μετ᾽ αὐτόν, οὐκ ὄντος αὐτῷ τέκνου.
6 Dios le dijo: Tus descendientes vivirán como extranjeros en una tierra ajena por 400 años, y la esclavizarán y maltratarán.
6 God spoke in this way: that his offspring would live as aliens in a strange land, and that they would be enslaved and mistreated for four hundred years.
6 ἐλάλησε δὲ οὕτως ὁ Θεός, ὅτι ἔσται τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ πάροικον ἐν γῇ ἀλλοτρίᾳ, καὶ δουλώσουσιν αὐτὸ καὶ κακώσουσιν ἔτη τετρακόσια·
7 Pero Yo juzgaré, dijo Dios, a la nación a la cual servirán como esclavos. Después de esto, saldrán y me servirán en este lugar.
7 ‘I will judge the nation to which they will be in bondage,’ said God, ‘and after that they will come out and serve me in this place.’
7 καὶ τὸ ἔθνος ᾧ ἐὰν δουλεύσωσι κρινῶ ἐγώ, εἶπεν ὁ Θεός· καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐξελεύσονται καὶ λατρεύσουσί μοι ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ.
8 Hizo con él un Pacto de circuncisión. Así engendró a Isaac y lo circuncidó al octavo día. Isaac [engendró] a Jacob, y Jacob a los 12 patriarcas.
8 He gave him the covenant of circumcision. So Abraham became the father of Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day. Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs.
8 καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ διαθήκην περιτομῆς· καὶ οὕτως ἐγέννησε τὸν Ἰσαὰκ καὶ περιέτεμεν αὐτὸν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ὀγδόῃ, καὶ ὁ Ἰσαὰκ τὸν Ἰακώβ, καὶ ὁ Ἰακὼβ τοὺς δώδεκα πατριάρχας.
9 Los patriarcas por envidia hacia José, lo vendieron para Egipto. Pero Dios estaba con él
9 “The patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Joseph, sold him into Egypt. God was with him
9 Καὶ οἱ πατριάρχαι ζηλώσαντες τὸν Ἰωσὴφ ἀπέδοντο εἰς Αἴγυπτον.
10 y lo libró de todas sus aflicciones. Le dio gracia y sabiduría delante de Faraón, rey de Egipto, quien lo designó gobernador sobre Egipto y toda su casa.
10 and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. He made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
10 καὶ ἦν ὁ Θεὸς μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξείλετο αὐτὸν ἐκ πασῶν τῶν θλίψεων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ χάριν καὶ σοφίαν ἐναντίον Φαραὼ βασιλέως Αἰγύπτου, καὶ κατέστησεν αὐτὸν ἡγούμενον ἐπ᾽ Αἴγυπτον καὶ ὅλον τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ.
11 Entonces en todo Egipto y Canaán vino una hambruna y una gran aflicción, y nuestros antepasados no hallaban alimento.
11 Now a famine came over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction. Our fathers found no food.
11 ἦλθε δὲ λιμὸς ἐφ᾽ ὅλην τὴν γῆν Αἰγύπτου καὶ Χαναὰν καὶ θλῖψις μεγάλη, καὶ οὐχ εὕρισκον χορτάσματα οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν.
12 Pero cuando Jacob supo que había alimento en Egipto, envió primero a nuestros antepasados.
12 But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers the first time.
12 ἀκούσας δὲ Ἰακὼβ ὄντα σῖτα ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ ἐξαπέστειλε τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν πρῶτον·
13 En la segunda ocasión, José se dio a conocer a sus hermanos, y el linaje de José fue declarado a Faraón.
13 On the second time Joseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph’s family was revealed to Pharaoh.
13 καὶ ἐν τῷ δευτέρῳ ἀνεγνωρίσθη Ἰωσὴφ τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς αὐτοῦ, καὶ φανερὸν ἐγένετο τῷ Φαραὼ τὸ γένος τοῦ Ἰωσήφ.
14 José llamó a su padre Jacob y a toda su parentela, en número de 75 personas.
14 Joseph sent and summoned Jacob his father and all his relatives, seventy-five souls.
14 ἀποστείλας δὲ Ἰωσὴφ μετεκαλέσατο τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ Ἰακὼβ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν συγγένειαν αὐτοῦ ἐν ψυχαῖς ἑβδομήκοντα πέντε.
15 Así que Jacob bajó a Egipto, y murieron él y nuestros antepasados.
15 Jacob went down into Egypt and he died, himself and our fathers;
15 κατέβη δὲ Ἰακὼβ εἰς Αἴγυπτον καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν,
16 Sus restos fueron trasladados a Siquem y puestos en el sepulcro que Abraham compró por precio de plata a los hijos de Hamor en Siquem.
16 and they were brought back to Shechem and laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price in silver from the children of Hamor of Shechem.
16 καὶ μετετέθησαν εἰς Συχὲμ καὶ ἐτέθησαν ἐν τῷ μνήματι ᾧ ὠνήσατο Ἀβραὰμ τιμῆς ἀργυρίου παρὰ τῶν υἱῶν Ἐμμὸρ τοῦ Συχέμ.
17 Pero cuando vino el tiempo de la promesa que Dios juró a Abraham, el pueblo crecía y se multiplicaba en Egipto,
17 “But as the time of the promise came close which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
17 Καθὼς δὲ ἤγγιζεν ὁ χρόνος τῆς ἐπαγγελίας ἣν ὤμοσεν ὁ Θεὸς τῷ Ἀβραάμ, ηὔξησεν ὁ λαὸς καὶ ἐπληθύνθη ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ,
18 hasta que surgió otro rey que no conocía a José.
18 until there arose a different king who didn’t know Joseph.
18 ἄχρις οὗ ἀνέστη βασιλεὺς ἕτερος, ὃς οὐκ ᾔδει τὸν Ἰωσήφ.
19 Éste trató con astucia a nuestro linaje y maltrató a los antepasados pues los obligó a que expusieran a sus bebés a la intemperie, a fin de que no sobrevivieran.
19 The same took advantage of our race and mistreated our fathers, and forced them to abandon their babies, so that they wouldn’t stay alive.
19 οὗτος κατασοφισάμενος τὸ γένος ἡμῶν ἐκάκωσε τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν τοῦ ποιεῖν ἔκθετα τὰ βρέφη αὐτῶν, εἰς τὸ μὴ ζωογονεῖσθαι·
20 En aquel tiempo nació Moisés, y fue agradable a Dios. Fue criado tres meses en la casa del padre.
20 At that time Moses was born, and was exceedingly handsome to God. He was nourished three months in his father’s house.
20 ἐν ᾧ καιρῷ ἐγεννήθη Μωϋσῆς, καὶ ἦν ἀστεῖος τῷ Θεῷ· ὃς ἀνετράφη μῆνας τρεῖς ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ.
21 Pero cuando él fue expuesto, la hija de Faraón lo recogió y lo crió para ella como hijo.
21 When he was abandoned, Pharaoh’s daughter took him up and reared him as her own son.
21 ἐκτεθέντα δὲ αὐτὸν ἀνείλετο αὐτὸν ἡ θυγάτηρ Φαραὼ καὶ ἀνεθρέψατο αὐτὸν ἑαυτῇ εἰς υἱόν.
22 Moisés fue educado en toda [la] sabiduría de [los] egipcios y era poderoso en sus palabras y obras.
22 Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. He was mighty in his words and works.
22 καὶ ἐπαιδεύθη Μωϋσῆς πάσῃ σοφίᾳ Αἰγυπτίων, ἦν δὲ δυνατὸς ἐν λόγοις καὶ [ἐν] ἔργοις.
23 Cuando cumplió 40 años, le vino al corazón visitar a sus hermanos, los hijos de Israel.
23 But when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the children of Israel.
23 Ὡς δὲ ἐπληροῦτο αὐτῷ τεσσαρακονταετὴς χρόνος, ἀνέβη εἰς τὴν καρδίαν αὐτοῦ ἐπισκέψασθαι τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ.
24 Al ver a uno que era tratado injustamente, mató al egipcio y vengó al oprimido.
24 Seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him and avenged him who was oppressed, striking the Egyptian.
24 καὶ ἰδών τινα ἀδικούμενον ἠμύνατο, καὶ ἐποιήσατο ἐκδίκησιν τῷ καταπονουμένῳ πατάξας τὸν Αἰγύπτιον.
25 Suponía entonces que sus hermanos entendían que Dios les daba salvación por medio de él, pero ellos no entendieron.
25 He supposed that his brothers understood that God, by his hand, was giving them deliverance; but they didn’t understand.
25 ἐνόμιζε δὲ συνιέναι τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς διὰ χειρὸς αὐτοῦ δίδωσιν αὐτοῖς σωτηρίαν· οἱ δὲ οὐ συνῆκαν.
26 Al día siguiente se presentó a [unos de] ellos que se peleaban. Los reconciliaba en paz y decía: Varones, son hermanos. ¿Por qué se maltratan el uno al otro?
26 “The day following, he appeared to them as they fought, and urged them to be at peace again, saying, ‘Sirs, you are brothers. Why do you wrong one another?’
26 τῇ τε ἐπιούσῃ ἡμέρᾳ ὤφθη αὐτοῖς μαχομένοις, καὶ συνήλασεν αὐτοὺς εἰς εἰρήνην εἰπών· ἄνδρες, ἀδελφοί ἐστε ὑμεῖς· ἵνα τί ἀδικεῖτε ἀλλήλους;
27 Pero el que maltrataba a su prójimo lo empujó y dijo: ¿Quién te designó gobernante y juez sobre nosotros?
27 But he who did his neighbor wrong pushed him away, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?
27 ὁ δὲ ἀδικῶν τὸν πλησίον ἀπώσατο αὐτὸν εἰπών· τίς σε κατέστησεν ἄρχοντα καὶ δικαστὴν ἐφ᾽ ἡμῶν;
28 ¿Quieres tú matarme como mataste ayer al egipcio?
28 Do you want to kill me as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?’
28 μὴ ἀνελεῖν με σὺ θέλεις ὃν τρόπον ἀνεῖλες χθὲς τὸν Αἰγύπτιον;
29 Ante esta declaración, Moisés huyó al extranjero, a tierra de Madián, donde engendró dos hijos.
29 Moses fled at this saying, and became a stranger in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.
29 ἔφυγε δὲ Μωϋσῆς ἐν τῷ λόγῳ τούτῳ καὶ ἐγένετο πάροικος ἐν γῇ Μαδιάμ, οὗ ἐγέννησεν υἱοὺς δύο.
30 Transcurridos 40 años, le apareció un ángel en la región despoblada de la montaña Sinaí, en [la] llama de fuego de una zarza.
30 “When forty years were fulfilled, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush.
30 Καὶ πληρωθέντων ἐτῶν τεσσαράκοντα ὤφθη αὐτῷ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ τοῦ ὄρους Σινᾶ ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἐν φλογὶ πυρὸς βάτου.
31 Cuando Moisés la vio, admiraba la visión. Al acercarse para observar, oyó una voz del Señor:
31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight. As he came close to see, the voice of the Lord came to him,
31 ὁ δὲ Μωϋσῆς ἰδὼν ἐθαύμαζε τὸ ὅραμα· προσερχομένου δὲ αὐτοῦ κατανοῆσαι ἐγένετο φωνὴ Κυρίου πρὸς αὐτόν·
32 Yo soy el Dios de tus antepasados, el Dios de Abraham, Isaac y Jacob. Moisés quedó aterrado y no [se ]atrevía a mirar.
32 ‘I am the God of your fathers: the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ Moses trembled and dared not look.
32 ἐγὼ ὁ Θεὸς τῶν πατέρων σου, ὁ Θεὸς Ἀβραὰμ καὶ ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσαὰκ καὶ ὁ Θεὸς Ἰακώβ. ἔντρομος δὲ γενόμενος Μωϋσῆς οὐκ ἐτόλμα κατανοῆσαι.
33 El Señor le dijo: Quita las sandalias de tus pies, porque el lugar donde estás es tierra santa.
33 The Lord said to him, ‘Take off your sandals, for the place where you stand is holy ground.
33 εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ Κύριος· λῦσον τὸ ὑπόδημα τῶν ποδῶν σου. ὁ γὰρ τόπος ἐν ᾧ ἕστηκας γῆ ἁγία ἐστίν.
34 Ciertamente he visto la aflicción de mi pueblo en Egipto, escuché su gemido y descendí a librarlos. Ahora ven, te enviaré a Egipto.
34 I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their groaning. I have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send you into Egypt.’
34 ἰδὼν εἶδον τὴν κάκωσιν τοῦ λαοῦ μου τοῦ ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ καὶ τοῦ στεναγμοῦ αὐτῶν ἤκουσα, καὶ κατέβην ἐξελέσθαι αὐτούς· καὶ νῦν δεῦρο ἀποστελῶ σε εἰς Αἴγυπτον.
35 A este Moisés, a quien rechazaron y dijeron: ¿Quién te designó gobernante y juez? Dios lo envió como gobernante y redentor por medio de un ángel que le apareció en la zarza.
35 “This Moses whom they refused, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge?’—God has sent him as both a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
35 Τοῦτον τὸν Μωϋσῆν ὃν ἠρνήσαντο εἰπόντες· τίς σε κατέστησεν ἄρχοντα καὶ δικαστήν; τοῦτον ὁ Θεὸς ἄρχοντα καὶ λυτρωτὴν ἀπέστειλεν ἐν χειρὶ ἀγγέλου τοῦ ὀφθέντος αὐτῷ ἐν τῇ βάτῳ.
36 Éste los sacó por medio de prodigios y señales milagrosas en la tierra de Egipto, en el mar Rojo y en el desierto durante 40 años.
36 This man led them out, having worked wonders and signs in Egypt, in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years.
36 οὗτος ἐξήγαγεν αὐτοὺς ποιήσας τέρατα καὶ σημεῖα ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ καὶ ἐν Ἐρυθρᾷ θαλάσσῃ καὶ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ἔτη τεσσαράκοντα.
37 Éste es el Moisés que dijo a los hijos de Israel: Dios les levantará profeta de entre sus hermanos, como a mí.
37 This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel, ‘The Lord our God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me.’
37 οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ Μωϋσῆς ὁ εἰπὼν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ· προφήτην ὑμῖν ἀναστήσει Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν ἐκ τῶν ἀδελφῶν ὑμῶν ὡς ἐμέ[· αὐτοῦ ἀκούσεσθε].
38 Éste fue quien estuvo con la congregación en el desierto, con el Ángel que le hablaba en la montaña Sinaí y con nuestros antepasados, quien recibió Palabras vivientes para darnos.
38 This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness with the angel that spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, who received living revelations to give to us,
38 οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ γενόμενος ἐν τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ μετὰ τοῦ ἀγγέλου τοῦ λαλοῦντος αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ ὄρει Σινᾶ καὶ τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν, ὃς ἐδέξατο λόγια ζῶντα δοῦναι ἡμῖν.
39 Nuestros antepasados no [le] obedecieron, sino [lo] rechazaron. En sus corazones se volvieron a Egipto
39 to whom our fathers wouldn’t be obedient, but rejected him and turned back in their hearts to Egypt,
39 ᾧ οὐκ ἠθέλησαν ὑπήκοοι γενέσθαι οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν, ἀλλ᾽ ἀπώσαντο καὶ ἐστράφησαν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῶν εἰς Αἴγυπτον
40 y dijeron a Aarón: ¡Haznos dioses que vayan delante de nosotros, porque este Moisés quien nos sacó de [la] tierra de Egipto, no sabemos qué le pasó!
40 saying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods that will go before us, for as for this Moses who led us out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.’
40 εἰπόντες τῷ Ἀαρών· ποίησον ἡμῖν θεοὺς οἳ προπορεύσονται ἡμῶν· ὁ γὰρ Μωϋσῆς οὗτος ὃς ἐξήγαγεν ἡμᾶς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου, οὐκ οἴδαμεν τί γέγονεν αὐτῷ.
41 En aquellos días hicieron un becerro, ofrecieron sacrificio al ídolo y se regocijaron en las obras de sus manos.
41 They made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their hands.
41 καὶ ἐμοσχοποίησαν ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις καὶ ἀνήγαγον θυσίαν τῷ εἰδώλῳ, καὶ εὐφραίνοντο ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν αὐτῶν.
42 Pero Dios desistió y los entregó a rendir culto al ejército del cielo, como está escrito en el rollo de los profetas: ¿Oh casa de Israel, me ofrecieron ofrendas y sacrificios en el desierto por 40 años?
42 But God turned away and gave them up to serve the army of the sky, as it is written in the book of the prophets, ‘Did you offer to me slain animals and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
42 ἔστρεψε δὲ ὁ Θεὸς καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς λατρεύειν τῇ στρατιᾷ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καθὼς γέγραπται ἐν βίβλῳ τῶν προφητῶν· μὴ σφάγια καὶ θυσίας προσηνέγκατέ μοι ἔτη τεσσαράκοντα ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, οἶκος Ἰσραήλ;
43 Mas bien llevaron el tabernáculo de Moloc y la estrella del dios Renfán, las imágenes que hicieron para adorarlas. Los deportaré, pues, más allá de Babilonia.
43 You took up the tabernacle of Moloch, the star of your god Rephan, the figures which you made to worship, so I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’
43 καὶ ἀνελάβετε τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ Μολὸχ καὶ τὸ ἄστρον τοῦ θεοῦ ὑμῶν Ῥεμφάν, τοὺς τύπους οὓς ἐποιήσατε προσκυνεῖν αὐτοῖς· καὶ μετοικιῶ ὑμᾶς ἐπέκεινα Βαβυλῶνος.
44 Nuestros antepasados tenían el Tabernáculo del Testimonio en el desierto, como ordenó el que hablaba a Moisés para hacerlo según el modelo que vio.
44 “Our fathers had the tabernacle of the testimony in the wilderness, even as he who spoke to Moses commanded him to make it according to the pattern that he had seen;
44 Ἡ σκηνὴ τοῦ μαρτυρίου ἦν τοῖς πατράσιν ἡμῶν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, καθὼς διετάξατο ὁ λαλῶν τῷ Μωϋσῇ ποιῆσαι αὐτὴν κατὰ τὸν τύπον ὃν ἑωράκει·
45 Después que nuestros antepasados lo recibieron, Josué lo introdujo en la posesión de las naciones que Dios expulsó de [la] presencia de nuestros antepasados hasta los días de David,
45 which also our fathers, in their turn, brought in with Joshua when they entered into the possession of the nations whom God drove out before the face of our fathers to the days of David,
45 ἣν καὶ εἰσήγαγον διαδεξάμενοι οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν μετὰ Ἰησοῦ ἐν τῇ κατασχέσει τῶν ἐθνῶν ὧν ἔξωσεν ὁ Θεὸς ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν, ἕως τῶν ἡμερῶν Δαυΐδ·
46 quien halló gracia delante de Dios, y pidió construir un Tabernáculo para la casa de Jacob,
46 who found favor in the sight of God, and asked to find a habitation for the God of Jacob.
46 ὃς εὗρε χάριν ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ ᾐτήσατο εὑρεῖν σκήνωμα τῷ Θεῷ Ἰακώβ.
47 pero Salomón le edificó Casa.
47 But Solomon built him a house.
47 Σολομὼν δὲ ᾠκοδόμησεν αὐτῷ οἶκον.
48 Sin embargo, el Altísimo no mora en [casas] hechas por manos humanas. Como dice el profeta:
48 However, the Most High doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says,
48 ἀλλ᾽ οὐχ ὁ ὕψιστος ἐν χειροποιήτοις ναοῖς κατοικεῖ, καθὼς ὁ προφήτης λέγει·
49 El cielo es mi trono, y la tierra, estrado de mis pies. ¿Qué clase de casa me edificarán? dice [el] Señor. ¿O cuál lugar para mi reposo?
49 ‘heaven is my throne, and the earth a footstool for my feet. What kind of house will you build me?’ says the Lord. ‘Or what is the place of my rest?
49 ὁ οὐρανός μοι θρόνος, ἡ δὲ γῆ ὑποπόδιον τῶν ποδῶν μου· ποῖον οἶκον οἰκοδομήσετέ μοι, λέγει Κύριος, ἢ τίς τόπος τῆς καταπαύσεώς μου;
50 ¿No hizo mi mano todas las cosas?
50 Didn’t my hand make all these things?’
50 οὐχὶ ἡ χείρ μου ἐποίησε ταῦτα πάντα;
51 ¡Indómitos e incircuncisos de corazón y de oídos! Ustedes resisten constantemente al Espíritu Santo. Son como sus antepasados.
51 “You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit! As your fathers did, so you do.
51 Σκληροτράχηλοι καὶ ἀπερίτμητοι τῇ καρδίᾳ καὶ τοῖς ὠσίν, ὑμεῖς ἀεὶ τῷ Πνεύματι τῷ Ἁγίῳ ἀντιπίπτετε, ὡς οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν καὶ ὑμεῖς.
52 ¿A cuál de los profetas no persiguieron los antepasados de ustedes? Mataron a los que predijeron la venida del Justo. Lo traicionaron y asesinaron.
52 Which of the prophets didn’t your fathers persecute? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, of whom you have now become betrayers and murderers.
52 τίνα τῶν προφητῶν οὐκ ἐδίωξαν οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν; καὶ ἀπέκτειναν τοὺς προκαταγγείλαντας περὶ τῆς ἐλεύσεως τοῦ δικαίου, οὗ νῦν ὑμεῖς προδόται καὶ φονεῖς γεγένησθε·
53 Recibieron la Ley por instrucciones de ángeles y no [la] guardaron.
53 You received the law as it was ordained by angels, and didn’t keep it!”
53 οἵτινες ἐλάβετε τὸν νόμον εἰς διαταγὰς ἀγγέλων, καὶ οὐκ ἐφυλάξατε.
54 Al oír estas cosas, sus corazones se enfurecieron y crujían los dientes contra él.
54 Now when they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth.
54 Ἀκούοντες δὲ ταῦτα διεπρίοντο ταῖς καρδίαις αὐτῶν καὶ ἔβρυχον τοὺς ὀδόντας ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν.
55 Pero [él], lleno del Espíritu Santo, miró al cielo, vio [la] gloria de Dios y a Jesús en pie a la mano derecha de Dios,
55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked up steadfastly into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
55 ὑπάρχων δὲ πλήρης Πνεύματος Ἁγίου, ἀτενίσας εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν εἶδε δόξαν Θεοῦ καὶ Ἰησοῦν ἑστῶτα ἐκ δεξιῶν τοῦ Θεοῦ,
56 y dijo: ¡Ciertamente veo los cielos abiertos y al Hijo del Hombre en pie a [la ]mano derecha de Dios!
56 and said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”
56 καὶ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ θεωρῶ τοὺς οὐρανοὺς ἀνεῳγμένους καὶ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐκ δεξιῶν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἑστῶτα.
57 Pero ellos gritaron a gran voz, se taparon los oídos y arremetieron unánimes contra él.
57 But they cried out with a loud voice and stopped their ears, then rushed at him with one accord.
57 κράξαντες δὲ φωνῇ μεγάλῃ συνέσχον τὰ ὦτα αὐτῶν καὶ ὥρμησαν ὁμοθυμαδὸν ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν,
58 Después de sacarlo de la ciudad, [lo] apedrearon. Los testigos colocaron sus ropas a los pies de un joven llamado Saulo.
58 They threw him out of the city and stoned him. The witnesses placed their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul.
58 καὶ ἐκβαλόντες ἔξω τῆς πόλεως ἐλιθοβόλουν. καὶ οἱ μάρτυρες ἀπέθεντο τὰ ἱμάτια [αὐτῶν] παρὰ τοὺς πόδας νεανίου καλουμένου Σαύλου,
59 Y mientras apedreaban a Esteban, [él] invocaba: ¡Señor Jesús, recibe mi espíritu!
59 They stoned Stephen as he called out, saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!”
59 καὶ ἐλιθοβόλουν τὸν Στέφανον, ἐπικαλούμενον καὶ λέγοντα· Κύριε Ἰησοῦ, δέξαι τὸ πνεῦμά μου.
60 Cayó de rodillas y clamó a gran voz: ¡Señor, no les atribuyas este pecado! Y después de decir esto durmió.
60 He kneeled down and cried with a loud voice, “Lord, don’t hold this sin against them!” When he had said this, he fell asleep.
60 θεὶς δὲ τὰ γόνατα ἔκραξε φωνῇ μεγάλῃ· Κύριε, μὴ στήσῃς αὐτοῖς τὴν ἁμαρτίαν ταύτην. καὶ τοῦτο εἰπὼν ἐκοιμήθη. Σαῦλος δὲ ἦν συνευδοκῶν τῇ ἀναιρέσει αὐτοῦ.

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).

“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.
