Isaiah 57 Free Bible Version (Spanish)
1 Las personas buenas mueren, y a nadie le importa; los fieles fallecen, y nadie piensa que estaban siendo protegidos del mal.
1 The righteous perish, and no one lays it to heart. Merciful men are taken away, and no one considers that the righteous is taken away from the evil.
2 Los que siguen el bien descansan en paz; encuentran descanso al acostarse en la muerte.
2 He enters into peace. They rest in their beds, each one who walks in his uprightness.
3 Pero en cuanto a ustedes, hijos de adivinos, producto del adulterio y la prostitución, ¡vengan aquí!
3 “But draw near here, you sons of a sorceress, you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes.
4 ¿De quién se burlan ustedes cuando ponen caras de desprecio y sacan la lengua? ¿No son ustedes los hijos del pecado y de la mentira?
4 Whom do you mock? Against whom do you make a wide mouth and stick out your tongue? Aren’t you children of disobedience and offspring of falsehood,
5 Ustedes son los que celebran orgías paganas bajo las encinas, bajo todo árbol verde. Sacrifican a sus hijos en los valles y entre las cumbres rocosas.
5 you who inflame yourselves among the oaks, under every green tree; who kill the children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks?
6 Han elegido adorar las piedras lisas de los arroyos de los valles: ¡esa es la elección que han hecho! Has derramado ofrendas de bebida a estos ídolos; les has presentado ofrendas de grano. ¿Debería eso alegrarme?
6 Among the smooth stones of the valley is your portion. They, they are your lot. You have even poured a drink offering to them. You have offered an offering. Shall I be appeased for these things?
7 Han cometido adulterio por la adoración de ídolos en todo monte alto; fueron allí a ofrecer sacrificios paganos.
7 On a high and lofty mountain you have set your bed. You also went up there to offer sacrifice.
8 Han colocado sus símbolos paganos detrás de sus puertas y en sus postes. Me han abandonado y se han quitado la ropa para meterse en la cama, y se ha comprometido con los que les gusta estar en la cama. Los han visto desnudos.
8 You have set up your memorial behind the doors and the posts, for you have exposed yourself to someone besides me, and have gone up. You have enlarged your bed and made a covenant for yourself with them. You loved what you saw on their bed.
9 Fueron a ofrecer a Moloc aceite de oliva, cubriéndose con muchos perfumes. Enviaron a sus mensajeros a lugares lejanos; incluso bajaste al mundo de los muertos.
9 You went to the king with oil, increased your perfumes, sent your ambassadors far off, and degraded yourself even to Sheol.
10 Se agotaron de tanto correr, pero no se dieron por vencidos ni dijeron: “¡No tiene remedio!”. Encontraron nuevas fuerzas y así no te debilitaste.
10 You were wearied with the length of your ways; yet you didn’t say, ‘It is in vain.’ You found a reviving of your strength; therefore you weren’t faint.
11 ¿De quién te asustaste? ¿Quién te asustó tanto que me mentiste, te olvidaste de mí, y ni siquiera pensaste en mí? ¿Es porque he estado callado durante tanto tiempo que ni siquiera me temes?
11 “Whom have you dreaded and feared, so that you lie, and have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart? Haven’t I held my peace for a long time, and you don’t fear me?
12 Voy a contarle a todo el mundo lo bueno que eres y las cosas que haces, pero no te van a ayudar.
12 I will declare your righteousness; and as for your works, they will not benefit you.
13 Cuando clames por ayuda, ¡vamos a ver si tu colección de ídolos te salva! El viento se los llevará a todos, ¡un soplo y se irán! Pero el que venga a pedirme ayuda será dueño de la tierra y poseerá mi monte sagrado.
13 When you cry, let those whom you have gathered deliver you, but the wind will take them. A breath will carry them all away, but he who takes refuge in me will possess the land, and will inherit my holy mountain.”
14 El dirá: Construye una carretera, quita todo lo que estorba a mi pueblo.
14 He will say, “Build up, build up, prepare the way! Remove the stumbling-block out of the way of my people.”
15 Esto es lo que dice el que está por encima de todo, el que vive en la eternidad, cuyo nombre es santo: Yo vivo en un lugar alto y santo, junto a los que se arrepienten y actúan con humildad, restaurando sus espíritus y animándolos.
15 For the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy, says: “I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also who is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.
16 No pelearé contigo para siempre; no me enfadaré contigo para siempre. De lo contrario, perderían el ánimo, el mismo pueblo al que di vida.
16 For I will not contend forever, neither will I always be angry; for the spirit would faint before me, and the souls whom I have made.
17 Sí, me enfadé con esta gente pecadora y codiciosa, así que la castigué. Estaba enojado, así que me escondí de ellos, pero ellos siguieron su propio camino rebelde, haciendo lo que querían.
17 I was angry because of the iniquity of his covetousness and struck him. I hid myself and was angry; and he went on backsliding in the way of his heart.
18 Yo sé lo que hacen, pero los sanaré. Los guiaré y consolaré a los que lloran,
18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him. I will lead him also, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners.
19 para que puedan decir gracias. El Señor declara: Paz, paz, a los que están lejos y a los que están cerca. Yo los sanaré.
19 I create the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace, to him who is far off and to him who is near,” says Yahweh; “and I will heal them.”
20 Pero los malvados son como el mar que se agita, que nunca se queda quieto, agitando el lodo y el fango con sus olas.
20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea; for it can’t rest and its waters cast up mire and mud.
21 No hay paz para los impíos, dice mi Dios.
21 “There is no peace”, says my God, “for the wicked.”

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).
He says, "For behold how the just man perishes, and no man considers it; and righteous men are taken away, and no man layeth it to heart." These things were acted beforehand in Abel, were also previously declared by the prophets, but were accomplished in the Lord's person; and the same [is still true] with regard to us, the body …
So that the Prophet in amazement speaks of this too, Against whom have ye opened your mouth, and against whom have ye let loose your tongue?

For as a man is said to "perish," according to that which is written, Behold, how the righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart, and this, though the resurrection is looked for; so we look for a resurrection, as it were, of the heavens also.
