WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 اِسْمَعُوا قَوْلَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «إِنَّ لِلرَّبِّ مُحَاكَمَةً مَعَ سُكَّانِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّهُ لَا أَمَانَةَ وَلَا إِحْسَانَ وَلَا مَعْرِفَةَ ٱللهِ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ.
1 OID palabra de Jehová, hijos de Israel, porque Jehová pleitea con los moradores de la tierra; porque no hay verdad, ni misericordia, ni conocimiento de Dios en la tierra.
1 Hear Yahweh’s word, you children of Israel, for Yahweh has a charge against the inhabitants of the land: “Indeed there is no truth, nor goodness, nor knowledge of God in the land.
2 لَعْنٌ وَكَذِبٌ وَقَتْلٌ وَسِرْقَةٌ وَفِسْقٌ. يَعْتَنِفُونَ، وَدِمَاءٌ تَلْحَقُ دِمَاءً.
2 Perjurar, y mentir, y matar, y hurtar y adulterar prevalecieron, y sangres se tocaron con sangres.
2 There is cursing, lying, murder, stealing, and committing adultery; they break boundaries, and bloodshed causes bloodshed.
3 لِذَلِكَ تَنُوحُ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَيَذْبُلُ كُلُّ مَنْ يَسْكُنُ فِيهَا مَعَ حَيَوَانِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ وَطُيُورِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَأَسْمَاكِ ٱلْبَحْرِ أَيْضًا تَنْتَزِعُ.
3 Por lo cual, se enlutará la tierra, y extenuaráse todo morador de ella, con las bestias del campo, y las aves del cielo: y aun los peces de la mar fallecerán.
3 Therefore the land will mourn, and everyone who dwells in it will waste away, with all living things in her, even the animals of the field and the birds of the sky; yes, the fish of the sea also die.
4 «وَلَكِنْ لَا يُحَاكِمْ أَحَدٌ وَلَا يُعَاتِبْ أَحَدٌ. وَشَعْبُكَ كَمَنْ يُخَاصِمُ كَاهِنًا.
4 Ciertamente hombre no contienda ni reprenda á hombre, porque tu pueblo es como los que resisten al sacerdote.
4 “Yet let no man bring a charge, neither let any man accuse; for your people are like those who bring charges against a priest.
5 فَتَتَعَثَّرُ فِي ٱلنَّهَارِ وَيَتَعَثَّرُ أَيْضًا ٱلنَّبِيُّ مَعَكَ فِي ٱللَّيْلِ، وَأَنَا أُخْرِبُ أُمَّكَ.
5 Caerás por tanto en el día, y caerá también contigo el profeta de noche; y á tu madre talaré.
5 You will stumble in the day, and the prophet will also stumble with you in the night; and I will destroy your mother.
6 قَدْ هَلَكَ شَعْبِي مِنْ عَدَمِ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةِ. لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ رَفَضْتَ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةَ أَرْفُضُكَ أَنَا حَتَّى لَا تَكْهَنَ لِي. وَلِأَنَّكَ نَسِيتَ شَرِيعَةَ إِلَهِكَ أَنْسَى أَنَا أَيْضًا بَنِيكَ.
6 Mi pueblo fué talado, porque le faltó sabiduría. Porque tú desechaste la sabiduría, yo te echaré del sacerdocio: y pues que olvidaste la ley de tu Dios, también yo me olvidaré de tus hijos.
6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you may be no priest to me. Because you have forgotten your God’s law, I will also forget your children.
7 عَلَى حَسْبَمَا كَثُرُوا، هَكَذَا أَخْطَأُوا إِلَيَّ، فَأُبْدِلُ كَرَامَتَهُمْ بِهَوَانٍ.
7 Conforme á su grandeza así pecaron contra mí: trocaré su honra en afrenta.
7 As they were multiplied, so they sinned against me. I will change their glory into shame.
8 يَأْكُلُونَ خَطِيَّةَ شَعْبِي وَإِلَى إِثْمِهِمْ يَحْمِلُونَ نُفُوسَهُمْ.
8 Comen del pecado de mi pueblo, y en su maldad levantan su alma.
8 They feed on the sin of my people, and set their heart on their iniquity.
9 فَيَكُونُ كَمَا ٱلشَّعْبُ هَكَذَا ٱلْكَاهِنُ. وَأُعَاقِبُهُمْ عَلَى طُرُقِهِمْ وَأَرُدُّ أَعْمَالَهُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ.
9 Tal será el pueblo como el sacerdote: y visitaré sobre él sus caminos, y pagaréle conforme á sus obras.
9 It will be like people, like priest; and I will punish them for their ways, and will repay them for their deeds.
10 فَيَأْكُلُونَ وَلَا يَشْبَعُونَ، وَيَزْنُونَ وَلَا يَكْثُرُونَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ تَرَكُوا عِبَادَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ.
10 Y comerán, mas no se hartarán; fornicarán, mas no se aumentarán: porque dejaron de atender á Jehová.
10 They will eat, and not have enough. They will play the prostitute, and will not increase; because they have abandoned listening to Yahweh.
11 «اَلزِّنَى وَٱلْخَمْرُ وَٱلسُّلَافَةُ تَخْلِبُ ٱلْقَلْبَ.
11 Fornicación, y vino, y mosto quitan el corazón.
11 Prostitution, wine, and new wine take away understanding.
12 شَعْبِي يَسْأَلُ خَشَبَهُ، وَعَصَاهُ تُخْبِرُهُ، لِأَنَّ رُوحَ ٱلزِّنَى قَدْ أَضَلَّهُمْ فَزَنَوْا مِنْ تَحْتِ إِلَهِهِمْ.
12 Mi pueblo á su madero pregunta, y su palo le responde: porque espíritu de fornicaciones lo engañó, y fornicaron debajo de sus dioses.
12 My people consult with their wooden idol, and answer to a stick of wood. Indeed the spirit of prostitution has led them astray, and they have been unfaithful to their God.
13 يَذْبَحُونَ عَلَى رُؤُوسِ ٱلْجِبَالِ، وَيُبَخِّرُونَ عَلَى ٱلتِّلَالِ تَحْتَ ٱلْبَلُّوطِ وَٱللُّبْنَى وَٱلْبُطْمِ لِأَنَّ ظِلَّهَا حَسَنٌ! لِذَلِكَ تَزْنِي بَنَاتُكُمْ وَتَفْسِقُ كَنَّاتُكُمْ.
13 Sobre las cabezas de los montes sacrificaron, é incensaron sobre los collados, debajo de encinas, y álamos, y olmos que tuviesen buena sombra: por tanto, vuestras hijas fornicarán, y adulterarán vuestras nueras.
13 They sacrifice on the tops of the mountains, and burn incense on the hills, under oaks, poplars, and terebinths, because its shade is good. Therefore your daughters play the prostitute, and your brides commit adultery.
14 لَا أُعَاقِبُ بَنَاتِكُمْ لِأَنَّهُنَّ يَزْنِينَ، وَلَا كَنَّاتِكُمْ لِأَنَّهُنَّ يَفْسِقْنَ. لِأَنَّهُمْ يَعْتَزِلُونَ مَعَ ٱلزَّانِيَاتِ وَيَذْبَحُونَ مَعَ ٱلنَّاذِرَاتِ ٱلزِّنَى. وَشَعْبٌ لَا يَعْقِلُ يُصْرَعُ.
14 No visitaré sobre vuestras hijas cuando fornicaren, ni sobre vuestras nueras cuando adulteraren: porque ellos ofrecen con las rameras, y con las malas mujeres sacrifican: por tanto, el pueblo sin entendimiento caerá.
14 I will not punish your daughters when they play the prostitute, nor your brides when they commit adultery; because the men consort with prostitutes, and they sacrifice with the shrine prostitutes; so the people without understanding will come to ruin.
15 «إِنْ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ زَانِيًا يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ فَلَا يَأْثَمُ يَهُوذَا. وَلَا تَأْتُوا إِلَى ٱلْجِلْجَالِ وَلَا تَصْعَدُوا إِلَى بَيْتِ آوَنَ وَلَا تَحْلِفُوا: حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ.
15 Si fornicares tú, Israel, á lo menos no peque Judá: y no entréis en Gilgal, ni subáis á Beth-aven; ni juréis, Vive Jehová.
15 “Though you, Israel, play the prostitute, yet don’t let Judah offend; and don’t come to Gilgal, neither go up to Beth Aven, nor swear, ‘As Yahweh lives.’
16 إِنَّهُ قَدْ جَمَحَ إِسْرَائِيلُ كَبَقَرَةٍ جَامِحَةٍ. اَلْآنَ يَرْعَاهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ كَخَرُوفٍ فِي مَكَانٍ وَاسِعٍ.
16 Porque como becerra cerrera se apartó Israel: ¿apacentarálos ahora Jehová como á carneros en anchura?
16 For Israel has behaved extremely stubbornly, like a stubborn heifer. Then how will Yahweh feed them like a lamb in a meadow?
17 أَفْرَايِمُ مُوثَقٌ بِٱلْأَصْنَامِ. ٱتْرُكُوهُ.
17 Ephraim es dado á ídolos; déjalo.
17 Ephraim is joined to idols. Leave him alone!
18 مَتَى ٱنْتَهَتْ مُنَادَمَتُهُمْ زَنَوْا زِنًى. أَحَبَّ مَجَانُّهَا، أَحَبُّوا ٱلْهَوَانَ.
18 Su bebida se corrompió; fornicaron pertinazmente: sus príncipes amaron las dádivas, afrenta [de ellos].
18 Their drink has become sour. They play the prostitute continually. Her rulers dearly love their shameful way.
19 قَدْ صَرَّتْهَا ٱلرِّيحُ فِي أَجْنِحَتِهَا، وَخَجِلُوا مِنْ ذَبَائِحِهِمْ.
19 Atóla el viento en sus alas, y de sus sacrificios serán avergonzados.
19 The wind has wrapped her up in its wings; and they shall be disappointed because of their sacrifices.

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).

  1. Quotes verse 4:5 Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm CXIX)

    … it:" and "let us walk honestly as in the day." "For all things serve Thee." He said all things of some: "all" which belong to this day "serve Thee." For the ungodly of whom it is said, "I have compared thy mother unto the night," do not serve Thee.

  2. Quotes verse 4:12 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture XVI)

    But sin also is called spirit, as I have already said; only in another and opposite sense, as when it is said, The spirit of whoredom caused them to err.
