1 Entonces le oí gritar con voz potente: “¡Comiencen el ataque, ustedes los encargados de castigar a Jerusalén! Recojan sus armas”.
1 Then he cried in my ears with a loud voice, saying, “Cause those who are in charge of the city to draw near, each man with his destroying weapon in his hand.”
2 Observé que seis hombres se acercaban por la puerta superior que da al norte. Todos ellos llevaban hachas de combate. Había otro hombre con ellos. Estaba vestido de lino y tenía a su lado un kit de escritura de escriba. Entraron y se colocaron junto al altar de bronce.
2 Behold, six men came from the way of the upper gate, which lies toward the north, every man with his slaughter weapon in his hand. One man in the middle of them was clothed in linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side. They went in, and stood beside the bronze altar.
3 La gloria del Dios de Israel se levantó de su lugar habitual sobre los querubines y se dirigió a la entrada del Templo. El Señor llamó al hombre vestido de lino con el estuche de escritura:
3 The glory of the God of Israel went up from the cherub, whereupon it was, to the threshold of the house; and he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer’s inkhorn by his side.
4 “Recorre toda la ciudad de Jerusalén y pon una marca en la frente de los que suspiran y se lamentan por todos los pecados repugnantes que se cometen allí”.
4 Yahweh said to him, “Go through the middle of the city, through the middle of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry over all the abominations that are done within it.”
5 Entonces le oí decir a los demás: “Síganle por toda la ciudad y comiencen a matar a la gente. No tengan piedad ni misericordia de nadie.
5 To the others he said in my hearing, “Go through the city after him, and strike. Don’t let your eye spare, neither have pity.
6 Maten a los ancianos, a los jóvenes y a las niñas, a las mujeres y a los niños, pero no se acerquen a los que tienen la marca. Empezad por mi santuario”. Así que empezaron por matar a los ancianos que estaban delante del Templo.
6 Kill utterly the old man, the young man, the virgin, little children and women; but don’t come near any man on whom is the mark. Begin at my sanctuary.” Then they began at the old men who were before the house.
7 Luego les dijo: “Ensucien el Templo y llenen los patios de cadáveres. Adelante, háganlo”. Así que fueron y empezaron a matar por toda la ciudad.
7 He said to them, “Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain. Go out!” They went out, and struck in the city.
8 Mientras ellos estaban ocupados matando gente, yo me quedé solo. Me tiré al suelo boca abajo y grité: “Señor Dios, cuando derrames tu ira sobre Jerusalén, ¿vas a destruir a todos los que quedan en Israel?”
8 While they were killing, and I was left, I fell on my face, and cried, and said, “Ah Lord Yahweh! Will you destroy all the residue of Israel in your pouring out of your wrath on Jerusalem?”
9 “Los pecados del pueblo de Israel y de Judá son realmente terribles”, respondió. “Todo el país está lleno de asesinos, y los que viven en la ciudad son criminales. Dicen: ‘El Señor ha abandonado nuestro país. No puede ver lo que estamos haciendo’.
9 Then he said to me, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perversion; for they say, ‘Yahweh has forsaken the land, and Yahweh doesn’t see.’
10 Pero ciertamente no seré amable con ellos ni tendré piedad. Me aseguraré de que sufran las consecuencias de lo que han hecho”.
10 As for me also, my eye won’t spare, neither will I have pity, but I will bring their way on their head.”
11 Entonces, el hombre de lino con el equipo de escritura regresó e informó: “He hecho lo que me dijiste que hiciera”.
11 Behold, the man clothed in linen, who had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, “I have done as you have commanded me.”

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).
… to destroy the ungodly people, He first sent one to mark them, and said to him, "Go and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and moan for the sins of my people that are done in the midst of them." He did not say, "which are done without them;" but "in the midst of them." …

Afterwards the Destroyer is sent, and to him it is said, "Go, lay waste, spare neither young nor old, male nor female, but come not near those who have the mark on their forehead." How great security is granted to you, my Brethren, who among this people are sighing, and moaning for the iniquities which are being done in the …
