WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Ούτω λέγει Κύριος· Ο ουρανός είναι θρόνος μου και η γη υποπόδιον των ποδών μου· ποίος είναι ο οίκος, τον οποίον ηθέλετε οικοδομήσει δι' εμέ; και ποίος είναι ο τόπος της αναπαύσεώς μου;
1 JEHOVÁ dijo así: El cielo es mi solio, y la tierra estrado de mis pies: ¿dónde está la casa que me habréis de edificar, y dónde este lugar de mi reposo?
1 Yahweh says: “Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build to me? Where will I rest?
2 Διότι η χειρ μου έκαμε πάντα ταύτα και έγειναν πάντα ταύτα, λέγει Κύριος· εις τίνα λοιπόν θέλω επιβλέψει; εις τον πτωχόν και συντετριμμένον το πνεύμα και τρέμοντα τον λόγον μου.
2 Mi mano hizo todas estas cosas, y [así] todas estas cosas fueron, dice Jehová: mas á aquél miraré que es pobre y humilde de espíritu, y que tiembla á mi palabra.
2 For my hand has made all these things, and so all these things came to be,” says Yahweh: “but I will look to this man, even to he who is poor and of a contrite spirit, and who trembles at my word.
3 Όστις δε σφάζει βουν, είναι ως ο φονεύων άνθρωπον· όστις θυσιάζει αρνίον, ως ο κόπτων κυνός λαιμόν· όστις προσφέρει προσφοράν εξ αλφίτων, ως προσφέρων αίμα χοίρειον· όστις θυσιάζει, ως ο ευλογών είδωλον. Ναι, αυτοί εξέλεξαν τας οδούς αυτών, και η ψυχή αυτών ηδύνεται εις τα βδελύγματα αυτών.
3 El que sacrifica buey, como si matase un hombre; el que sacrifica oveja, como si degollase un perro; el que ofrece presente, [como si ofreciese] sangre de puerco; el que ofrece perfume, como si bendijese á un ídolo. Y pues escogieron sus caminos, y su alma amó sus abominaciones,
3 He who kills an ox is as he who kills a man; he who sacrifices a lamb, as he who breaks a dog’s neck; he who offers an offering, as he who offers pig’s blood; he who burns frankincense, as he who blesses an idol. Yes, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations.
4 Και εγώ λοιπόν θέλω εκλέξει τα εις αυτούς ολέθρια και θέλω φέρει επ' αυτούς όσα φοβούνται· διότι εκάλουν και ουδείς απεκρίνετο· ελάλουν και δεν ήκουον· αλλ' έπραττον το κακόν ενώπιόν μου και εξέλεγον το μη αρεστόν εις εμέ.
4 También yo escogeré sus escarnios, y traeré sobre ellos lo que temieron; porque llamé, y nadie respondió; hablé, y no oyeron; antes hicieron lo malo delante de mis ojos, y escogieron lo que á mí desagrada.
4 I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears on them, because when I called, no one answered; when I spoke, they didn’t listen, but they did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”
5 Ακούσατε τον λόγον του Κυρίου, σεις οι τρέμοντες τον λόγον αυτού· οι αδελφοί σας, οίτινες σας μισούσι και σας αποβάλλουσιν ένεκεν του ονόματός μου, είπαν, Ας δοξασθή ο Κύριος· πλην αυτός θέλει φανή εις χαράν σας, εκείνοι δε θέλουσι καταισχυνθή.
5 Oid palabra de Jehová, vosotros los que tembláis á su palabra: Vuestros hermanos los que os aborrecen, y os niegan por causa de mi nombre, dijeron: Glorifíquese Jehová. Mas él se mostrará con alegría vuestra, y ellos serán confundidos.
5 Hear Yahweh’s word, you who tremble at his word: “Your brothers who hate you, who cast you out for my name’s sake, have said, ‘Let Yahweh be glorified, that we may see your joy;’ but it is those who shall be disappointed.
6 Φωνή κραυγής έρχεται εκ της πόλεως, φωνή εκ του ναού, φωνή του Κυρίου, όστις κάμνει ανταπόδοσιν εις τους εχθρούς αυτού.
6 Voz de alboroto de la ciudad, voz del templo, voz de Jehová que da el pago á sus enemigos.
6 A voice of tumult from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of Yahweh that repays his enemies what they deserve.
7 Πριν κοιλοπονήση, εγέννησε· πριν έλθωσιν οι πόνοι αυτής, ηλευθερώθη και εγέννησεν αρσενικόν.
7 Antes que estuviese de parto, parió; antes que le viniesen dolores parió hijo.
7 “Before she travailed, she gave birth. Before her pain came, she delivered a son.
8 Τις ήκουσε τοιούτον πράγμα; τις είδε τοιαύτα; ήθελε γεννήσει η γη εν μιά ημέρα; ή έθνος ήθελε γεννηθή ενταυτώ αλλ' η Σιών άμα εκοιλοπόνησεν, εγέννησε τα τέκνα αυτής.
8 ¿Quién oyó cosa semejante? ¿quién vió cosa tal? ¿parirá la tierra en un día? ¿nacerá una nación de una vez? Pues en cuanto Sión estuvo de parto, parió sus hijos.
8 Who has heard of such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall a land be born in one day? Shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she gave birth to her children.
9 Εγώ, ο φέρων εις την γένναν, δεν ήθελον κάμει να γεννήση; λέγει Κύριος· εγώ, ο κάμνων να γεννώσιν, ήθελον κλείσει την μήτραν; λέγει ο Θεός σου.
9 ¿Yo que hago parir, no pariré? dijo Jehová. ¿Yo que hago engendrar, seré detenido? dice el Dios tuyo.
9 Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to be delivered?” says Yahweh. “Shall I who cause to give birth shut the womb?” says your God.
10 Ευφράνθητε μετά της Ιερουσαλήμ και αγάλλεσθε μετ' αυτής, πάντες οι αγαπώντες αυτήν· χαρήτε χαράν μετ' αυτής, πάντες οι πενθούντες δι' αυτήν·
10 Alegraos con Jerusalem, y gozaos con ella, todos los que la amáis: llenaos con ella de gozo, todos los que os enlutáis por ella:
10 “Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad for her, all you who love her. Rejoice for joy with her, all you who mourn over her;
11 διά να θηλάσητε και να χορτασθήτε από των μαστών των παρηγοριών αυτής· διά να εκθηλάσητε και να εντρυφήσητε εις την αφθονίαν της δόξης αυτής.
11 Para que maméis y os saciéis de los pechos de sus consolaciones; para que ordeñéis, y os deleitéis con el resplandor de su gloria.
11 that you may nurse and be satisfied at the comforting breasts; that you may drink deeply, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.”
12 διότι ούτω λέγει Κύριος· Ιδού, εις αυτήν θέλω στρέψει την ειρήνην ως ποταμόν, και την δόξαν των εθνών ως χείμαρρον πλημμυρούντα· τότε θέλετε θηλάσει, θέλετε βασταχθή επί των πλευρών και κολακευθή επί των γονάτων αυτής.
12 Porque así dice Jehová: He aquí que yo extiendo sobre ella paz como un río, y la gloria de las gentes como un arroyo que sale de madre; y mamaréis, y sobre el lado seréis traídos, y sobre las rodillas seréis regalados.
12 For Yahweh says, “Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream, and you will nurse. You will be carried on her side, and will be dandled on her knees.
13 Ως παιδίον, το οποίον παρηγορεί η μήτηρ αυτού, ούτως εγώ θέλω σας παρηγορήσει· και θέλετε παρηγορηθή εν τη Ιερουσαλήμ.
13 Como aquel á quien consuela su madre, así os consolaré yo á vosotros, y en Jerusalem tomaréis consuelo.
13 As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you. You will be comforted in Jerusalem.”
14 Και θέλετε ιδεί, και η καρδία σας θέλει ευφρανθή και τα οστά σας θέλουσιν ανθήσει ως χόρτος· και η χειρ του Κυρίου θέλει γνωρισθή προς τους δούλους αυτού, η δε οργή προς τους εχθρούς αυτού.
14 Y veréis, y alegraráse vuestro corazón, y vuestros huesos reverdecerán como la hierba: y la mano de Jehová para con sus siervos será conocida, y se airará contra sus enemigos.
14 You will see it, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones will flourish like the tender grass. Yahweh’s hand will be known among his servants; and he will have indignation against his enemies.
15 Διότι, ιδού, ο Κύριος θέλει ελθεί εν πυρί, και αι άμαξαι αυτού θέλουσιν είσθαι ως ανεμοστρόβιλος, διά να αποδώση την οργήν αυτού με ορμήν και την επιτίμησιν αυτού με φλόγας πυρός.
15 Porque he aquí que Jehová vendrá con fuego, y sus carros como torbellino, para tornar su ira en furor, y su reprensión en llama de fuego.
15 For, behold, Yahweh will come with fire, and his chariots will be like the whirlwind; to give his anger with fierceness, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16 Διότι εν πυρί Κυρίου και εν τη μαχαίρα αυτού θέλει κριθή πάσα σαρξ, και οι πεφονευμένοι του Κυρίου θέλουσιν είσθαι πολλοί.
16 Porque Jehová juzgará con fuego y con su espada á toda carne: y los muertos de Jehová serán multiplicados.
16 For Yahweh will execute judgment by fire and by his sword on all flesh; and those slain by Yahweh will be many.
17 Οι αγιαζόμενοι και καθαριζόμενοι εν τοις κήποις ο εις κατόπιν του άλλου αναφανδόν, τρώγοντες χοίρειον κρέας και τα βδελύγματα και τον ποντικόν, ούτοι θέλουσι καταναλωθή ομού, λέγει Κύριος.
17 Los que se santifican y los que se purifican en los huertos, unos tras otros, los que comen carne de puerco, y abominación, y ratón; juntamente serán talados, dice Jehová.
17 “Those who sanctify themselves and purify themselves to go to the gardens, following one in the middle, eating pig’s meat, abominable things, and the mouse, they shall come to an end together,” says Yahweh.
18 Διότι εγώ εξεύρω τα έργα αυτών και τους διαλογισμούς αυτών· και έρχομαι διά να συνάξω πάντα τα έθνη και τας γλώσσας· και θέλουσιν ελθεί και ιδεί την δόξαν μου.
18 Porque yo [entiendo] sus obras y sus pensamientos: [tiempo] vendrá para juntar todas las gentes y lenguas; y vendrán, y verán mi gloria.
18 “For I know their works and their thoughts. The time comes that I will gather all nations and languages, and they will come, and will see my glory.
19 Και θέλω στήσει σημείον μεταξύ αυτών· και τους σεσωσμένους εξ αυτών θέλω εξαποστείλει εις τα έθνη, εις Θαρσείς, Φούλ και Λούδ, οίτινες σύρουσι τόξον, εις Θουβάλ και Ιαυάν, εις τας νήσους τας μακράν, οίτινες δεν ήκουσαν την φήμην μου ουδέ είδον την δόξαν μου· και θέλουσι κηρύξει την δόξάν μου μεταξύ των εθνών.
19 Y pondré entre ellos señal, y enviaré de los escapados de ellos á las gentes, á Tarsis, á Pul y Lud, que disparan arco, á Tubal y á Javán, á las islas apartadas que no oyeron de mí, ni vieron mi gloria; y publicarán mi gloria entre las gentes.
19 “I will set a sign among them, and I will send those who escape of them to the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, who draw the bow, to Tubal and Javan, to far-away islands, who have not heard my fame, nor have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the nations.
20 Και θέλουσι φέρει πάντας τους αδελφούς σας εκ πάντων των εθνών προσφοράν εις τον Κύριον, επί ίππων και επί αμαξών και επί φορείων και επί ημιόνων και επί ταχυδρόμων ζώων, προς το άγιόν μου όρος, την Ιερουσαλήμ, λέγει Κύριος, καθώς τα τέκνα του Ισραήλ φέρουσι την εξ αλφίτων προσφοράν εν καθαρώ αγγείω προς τον οίκον του Κυρίου.
20 Y traerán á todos vuestros hermanos de entre todas las naciones, [por] presente á Jehová, en caballos, en carros, en literas, y en mulos, y en camellos, á mi santo monte de Jerusalem, dice Jehová, al modo que los hijos de Israel traen el presente en vasos limpios á la casa de Jehová.
20 They shall bring all your brothers out of all the nations for an offering to Yahweh, on horses, in chariots, in litters, on mules, and on camels, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says Yahweh, as the children of Israel bring their offering in a clean vessel into Yahweh’s house.
21 Και προσέτι θέλω λάβει εξ αυτών ιερείς και Λευΐτας, λέγει Κύριος.
21 Y tomaré también de ellos para sacerdotes y Levitas, dice Jehová.
21 Of them I will also select priests and Levites,” says Yahweh.
22 Διότι ως οι νέοι ουρανοί και η νέα γη, τα οποία εγώ θέλω κάμει, θέλουσι διαμένει ενώπιόν μου, λέγει Κύριος, ούτω θέλει διαμένει το σπέρμα σας και το όνομά σας.
22 Porque como los cielos nuevos y la nueva tierra, que yo hago, permanecen delante de mí, dice Jehová, así permanecerá vuestra simiente y vuestro nombre.
22 “For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me,” says Yahweh, “so your offspring and your name shall remain.
23 Και από νέας σελήνης έως άλλης και από σαββάτου έως άλλου θέλει έρχεσθαι πάσα σαρξ διά να προσκυνή ενώπιόν μου, λέγει Κύριος.
23 Y será que de mes en mes, y de sábado en sábado, vendrá toda carne á adorar delante de mí, dijo Jehová.
23 It shall happen that from one new moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another, all flesh will come to worship before me,” says Yahweh.
24 Και θέλουσιν εξέλθει και ιδεί τα κώλα των ανθρώπων, οίτινες εστάθησαν παραβάται εναντίον μου· διότι ο σκώληξ αυτών δεν θέλει τελευτήσει και το πυρ αυτών δεν θέλει σβεσθή· και θέλουσιν είσθαι βδέλυγμα εις πάσαν σάρκα.
24 Y saldrán, y verán los cadáveres de los hombres que se rebelaron contra mí: porque su gusano nunca morirá, ni su fuego se apagará; y serán abominables á toda carne.
24 “They will go out, and look at the dead bodies of the men who have transgressed against me; for their worm will not die, nor will their fire be quenched, and they will be loathsome to all mankind.”

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).
For the holy word saith, "On whom shall I look, but on him that is meek and peaceable, and that trembleth at My words?"
The heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool." And again, in another place, "Your new moons and your sabbaths My soul hateth; and the great day of the fast and of ceasing from labour I cannot away with; nor, if ye come to be seen of Me, will I hear you: your hands are full of blood; …
… nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; neither by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King." For these words are evidently spoken with reference to the Creator, as also Esaias says: "Heaven is my throne, the earth is my footstool." And besides this Being there is no other God; otherwise He would not be termed …
For with fire of the Lord shall all the earth be judged, and all flesh with His sword: many shall be wounded by the Lord." In His promise to the good he says that He will flow down as a river of peace, that is to say, in the greatest possible abundance of peace.

Whom also by His prophet Isaiah God earnestly accepting said, "To whom will I look, but to him who is meek and quiet, and trembleth at My words?" For indeed there are many kinds of humility: one is humble in his own measure, another with all excess of lowliness.
