1 In those days Hezekiah was sick to the point of dying. So Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, came to him, and said to him, “Yahweh says, 'Set your house in order; for you will die, not live.'”
1 EN aquellos días cayó Ezechîas enfermo para morir. Y vino á él Isaías profeta, hijo de Amoz, y díjole: Jehová dice así: Ordena tu casa, porque tú morirás, y no vivirás.
1 In those days Hezekiah was sick and near death. Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, came to him, and said to him, “Yahweh says, ‘Set your house in order, for you will die, and not live.’”
2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to Yahweh.
2 Entonces volvió Ezechîas su rostro á la pared, é hizo oración á Jehová,
2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to Yahweh,
3 He said, “Please, Yahweh, call to mind how I have faithfully walked before you with my whole heart, and how I have done what was good in your sight.” Then Hezekiah wept loudly.
3 Y dijo: Oh Jehová, ruégote te acuerdes ahora que he andado delante de ti en verdad y con íntegro corazón, y que he hecho lo que ha sido agradable delante de tus ojos. Y lloró Ezechîas con gran lloro.
3 and said, “Remember now, Yahweh, I beg you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight.” Then Hezekiah wept bitterly.
4 Then the word of Yahweh came to Isaiah, saying,
4 Entonces fué palabra de Jehová á Isaías, diciendo:
4 Then Yahweh’s word came to Isaiah, saying,
5 “Go and say to Hezekiah, the leader of my people, 'This is what Yahweh, the God of David your ancestor, says: I have heard your prayer, and I have seen your tears. See, I am about to add fifteen years to your life.
5 Ve, y di á Ezechîas: Jehová Dios de David tu padre dice así: Tu oración he oído, y visto tus lágrimas: he aquí que yo añado á tus días quince años.
5 “Go, and tell Hezekiah, ‘Yahweh, the God of David your father, says, “I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. Behold, I will add fifteen years to your life.
6 Then I will rescue you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city.
6 Y te libraré, y á esta ciudad, de mano del rey de Asiria; y á esta ciudad ampararé.
6 I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city.
7 This will be the sign to you from Yahweh, that I will do what I have promised.
7 Y esto te será señal de parte de Jehová, que Jehová hará esto que ha dicho:
7 This shall be the sign to you from Yahweh, that Yahweh will do this thing that he has spoken.
8 Look, I will cause the shadow on the stairs of Ahaz to go back ten steps.'” So the shadow went back ten steps of the stairs on which it had advanced.
8 He aquí que yo vuelvo atrás la sombra de los grados, que ha descendido en el reloj de Achâz por el sol, diez grados. Y el sol fué tornado diez grados atrás, por los cuales había ya descendido.
8 Behold, I will cause the shadow on the sundial, which has gone down on the sundial of Ahaz with the sun, to return backward ten steps.”’” So the sun returned ten steps on the sundial on which it had gone down.
9 This was the written prayer of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick and then recovered:
9 Escritura de Ezechîas rey de Judá, de cuando enfermó y sanó de su enfermedad.
9 The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and had recovered of his sickness:
10 “I said that halfway through my life I will go through the gates of Sheol; I am sent there for the rest of my years.
10 Yo dije: En el medio de mis días iré á las puertas del sepulcro: privado soy del resto de mis años.
10 I said, “In the middle of my life I go into the gates of Sheol. I am deprived of the residue of my years.”
11 I said that I will no longer see Yahweh, Yahweh in the land of the living; I will no longer look on mankind or the inhabitants of the world.
11 Dije: No veré á JAH, á JAH en la tierra de los que viven: ya no veré más hombre con los moradores del mundo.
11 I said, “I won’t see Yah, Yah in the land of the living. I will see man no more with the inhabitants of the world.
12 My life is removed and carried away from me like a shepherd's tent; I have rolled up my life like a weaver; you are cutting me off from the loom; between day and night you are ending my life.
12 Mi morada ha sido movida y traspasada de mí, como tienda de pastor. Como el tejedor corté mi vida; cortaráme con la enfermedad; me consumirás entre el día y la noche.
12 My dwelling is removed, and is carried away from me like a shepherd’s tent. I have rolled up my life like a weaver. He will cut me off from the loom. From day even to night you will make an end of me.
13 I cried out until the morning; like a lion he breaks all my bones. Between day and night you are ending my life.
13 Contaba yo hasta la mañana. Como un león molió todos mis huesos: de la mañana á la noche me acabarás.
13 I waited patiently until morning. He breaks all my bones like a lion. From day even to night you will make an end of me.
14 Like a swallow I chirp; I coo like a dove; my eyes grow tired with looking upward. Lord, I am oppressed; help me.
14 Como la grulla y como la golondrina me quejaba; gemía como la paloma: alzaba en alto mis ojos: Jehová, violencia padezco; confórtame.
14 I chattered like a swallow or a crane. I moaned like a dove. My eyes weaken looking upward. Lord, I am oppressed. Be my security.”
15 What shall I say? He has both spoken to me, and has done it; I will walk slowly all my years because I am overcome with grief.
15 ¿Qué diré? El que me lo dijo, él mismo lo ha hecho. Andaré recapacitando en la amargura de mi alma todos los años de mi vida.
15 What will I say? He has both spoken to me, and himself has done it. I will walk carefully all my years because of the anguish of my soul.
16 Lord, the sufferings you send are good for me; may my life be given back to me; you have restored my life and health.
16 Oh Señor, sobre ellos vivirán [tus piedades], y á todos [diré consistir] en ellas la vida de mi espíritu; pues tú me restablecerás, y me harás que viva.
16 Lord, men live by these things; and my spirit finds life in all of them. You restore me, and cause me to live.
17 It was for my benefit that I experienced such grief. You have rescued me from the pit of destruction; for you have thrown all my sins behind your back.
17 He aquí amargura grande me [sobrevino] en la paz: mas á ti plugo librar mi vida del hoyo de corrupción: porque echaste tras tus espaldas todos mis pecados.
17 Behold, for peace I had great anguish, but you have in love for my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption; for you have cast all my sins behind your back.
18 For Sheol does not thank you; death does not praise you; those who go down into the pit do not hope in your trustworthiness.
18 Porque el sepulcro no te celebrará, ni te alabará la muerte; ni los que descienden al hoyo esperarán tu verdad.
18 For Sheol can’t praise you. Death can’t celebrate you. Those who go down into the pit can’t hope for your truth.
19 The living person, the living person, he is the one who gives you thanks, as I do this day; a father makes known to children your trustworthiness.
19 El que vive, el que vive, éste te confesará, como yo hoy: el padre hará notoria tu verdad á los hijos.
19 The living, the living, he shall praise you, as I do today. The father shall make known your truth to the children.
20 Yahweh is about to save me, and we will celebrate with music all the days of our lives in the house of Yahweh.”
20 Jehová para salvarme; por tanto cantaremos nuestros salmos en la casa de Jehová todos los días de nuestra vida.
20 Yahweh will save me. Therefore we will sing my songs with stringed instruments all the days of our life in Yahweh’s house.
21 Now Isaiah had said, “Let them take a lump of figs and put it on the boil, and he will recover.”
21 Y había dicho Isaías: Tomen masa de higos, y pónganla en la llaga, y sanará.
21 Now Isaiah had said, “Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it for a poultice on the boil, and he shall recover.”
22 Hezekiah also had said, “What will be the sign that I should go up to the house of Yahweh?”
22 Había asimismo dicho Ezechîas: ¿Qué señal tendré de que he de subir á la casa de Jehová?
22 Hezekiah also had said, “What is the sign that I will go up to Yahweh’s house?”
