WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)

1 Llamen a sus hermanos Ammi, y a sus hermanas Ruhama.

1 “Say to your brothers, ‘My people!’ and to your sisters, ‘My loved one!’

2 Contiendan con su madre, contiendan, porque ella no es mi esposa ni Yo soy su esposo, para que se quite de su cara sus fornicaciones, y sus adulterios de entre sus pechos.

2 Contend with your mother! Contend, for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband; and let her put away her prostitution from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts;

3 No sea que la despoje, la deje totalmente desnuda, la coloque como el día cuando nació, la deje como el desierto, la reduzca a tierra árida, la mate de sed,

3 lest I strip her naked, and make her bare as in the day that she was born, and make her like a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and kill her with thirst.

4 y no me compadezca de sus hijos porque son hijos bastardos.

4 Indeed, on her children I will have no mercy, for they are children of unfaithfulness.

5 Sí, su madre se prostituyó, la que los dio a luz se deshonró, pues se dijo: Iré tras mis amantes, los cuales me dan mi pan y mi agua, mi lana y mi lino, mi aceite y mi vino.

5 For their mother has played the prostitute. She who conceived them has done shamefully; for she said, ‘I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.’

6 Por tanto mira, Yo obstruyo tu camino con espinos. Construiré un muro contra ella para que no encuentren sus senderos.

6 Therefore behold, I will hedge up your way with thorns, and I will build a wall against her, that she can’t find her way.

7 Perseguirá a sus amantes y no los alcanzará, los buscará y no los hallará, y dirá: Volveré a mi primer esposo, porque entonces estaba mejor que ahora.

7 She will follow after her lovers, but she won’t overtake them; and she will seek them, but won’t find them. Then she will say, ‘I will go and return to my first husband, for then it was better with me than now.’

8 Ella no entendía que era Yo el que le daba el grano, el mosto y el aceite, el que le multiplicaba la plata y el oro que usan para baal.

8 For she didn’t know that I gave her the grain, the new wine, and the oil, and multiplied to her silver and gold, which they used for Baal.

9 Por eso le retendré mi grano en la cosecha y mi mosto en su época. Recuperaré mi lana y mi lino con los cuales cubría su desnudez.

9 Therefore I will take back my grain in its time, and my new wine in its season, and will pluck away my wool and my flax which should have covered her nakedness.

10 Descubriré ante sus amantes su infamia, y no habrá quien la libre de mi mano.

10 Now I will uncover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and no one will deliver her out of my hand.

11 Haré cesar todo su alborozo: sus fiestas, sus nuevas lunas y sus sábados, y todas sus solemnidades.

11 I will also cause all her celebrations to cease: her feasts, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.

12 Arrasaré su vid y su higuera, de las cuales decía: son mi paga, me las dieron mis amantes. Las convertiré en matorrales, y los comerán las bestias del campo.

12 I will lay waste her vines and her fig trees, about which she has said, ‘These are my wages that my lovers have given me,’ and I will make them a forest, and the animals of the field shall eat them.

13 La castigaré por los días dedicados a los baales, a los cuales les quemaba incienso, y adornada con aretes y collares iba detrás de sus amantes, y se olvidaba de mí, dice Yavé.

13 I will visit on her the days of the Baals, to which she burned incense when she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and went after her lovers and forgot me,” says Yahweh.

14 Por tanto, Yo la atraeré y la llevaré al desierto, y le hablaré a su corazón.

14 “Therefore behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her.

15 Allí le daré sus viñas y el valle de Acor, como puerta de esperanza. Allí me responderá como en su juventud, como cuando salió de Egipto.

15 I will give her vineyards from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will respond there as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

16 Sucederá en aquel día, dice Yavé, que tú me llamarás: Esposo mío, y ya no me llamarás: ʼAdón mío.

16 It will be in that day,” says Yahweh, “that you will call me ‘my husband,’ and no longer call me ‘my master.’

17 Pues quitaré de su boca los nombres de los baales, y sus nombres ya no serán invocados.

17 For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth, and they will no longer be mentioned by name.

18 Haré un pacto a favor de ellos con las bestias salvajes, las aves de los cielos y los reptiles de la tierra. Romperé el arco, la espada y las batallas de la tierra, y haré que reposen seguros.

18 In that day I will make a covenant for them with the animals of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the creeping things of the ground. I will break the bow, the sword, and the battle out of the land, and will make them lie down safely.

19 Te comprometeré conmigo para siempre. Te desposaré conmigo en justicia y justo juicio, con benignidad y gran misericordia.

19 I will betroth you to me forever. Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, in justice, in loving kindness, and in compassion.

20 Te desposaré conmigo en fidelidad, y tú conocerás a Yavé.

20 I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness; and you shall know Yahweh.

21 Aquel día responderé, dice Yavé. Yo responderé a los cielos, y ellos responderán a la tierra.

21 It will happen in that day, that I will respond,” says Yahweh. “I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth;

22 Y la tierra responderá al trigo, al vino y al aceite, y ellos responderán a Jezreel.

22 and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; and they will respond to Jezreel.

23 Y la sembraré en la tierra para Mí mismo, y me compadeceré de Lo-ruhama, y diré a Lo-ammi: Pueblo mío. Y él responderá: Tú eres mi ʼElohim.

23 I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; and I will tell those who were not my people, ‘You are my people;’ and they will say, ‘You are My God!’”

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).
