1 El pecado de Judá está inscrito con un punzón de hierro, grabado con una punta de diamante, en sus mentes y en las esquinas de sus altares donde adoran.
1 “The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond. It is engraved on the tablet of their heart, and on the horns of your altars.
2 Incluso sus hijos se acuerdan de adorar en sus altares paganos y en sus postes de Asera, erigidos junto a los árboles verdes y en las colinas altas,
2 Even their children remember their altars and their Asherah poles by the green trees on the high hills.
3 en mi montaña, en los campos. Entregaré sus riquezas y todas sus posesiones valiosas como botín, a causa del pecado cometido en sus lugares altos paganos dentro de su país.
3 My mountain in the field, I will give your substance and all your treasures for a plunder, and your high places, because of sin, throughout all your borders.
4 Tendrás que renunciar a la tierra que te di. Haré que tus enemigos te conviertan en sus esclavos en un país desconocido, porque has hecho arder mi ira, que arderá para siempre.
4 You, even of yourself, will discontinue from your heritage that I gave you. I will cause you to serve your enemies in the land which you don’t know, for you have kindled a fire in my anger which will burn forever.”
5 Esto es lo que dice el Señor: Malditos los que ponen su confianza en las personas, los que confían en las fuerzas humanas y dejan de confiar en el Señor.
5 Yahweh says: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man, relies on strength of flesh, and whose heart departs from Yahweh.
6 Serán como un arbusto solitario en el desierto que ni siquiera se da cuenta cuando suceden cosas buenas. Sólo sigue viviendo en el desierto seco, en un salar deshabitado.
6 For he will be like a bush in the desert, and will not see when good comes, but will inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, an uninhabited salt land.
7 Dichosos los que confían en el Señor, los que ponen su confianza en él.
7 “Blessed is the man who trusts in Yahweh, and whose confidence is in Yahweh.
8 Son como árboles plantados junto al agua, que echan raíces hacia la corriente. No se asustan cuando hace calor; sus hojas están siempre verdes. No se preocupan en tiempos de sequía, sino que siguen dando fruto.
8 For he will be as a tree planted by the waters, who spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes, but its leaf will be green, and will not be concerned in the year of drought. It won’t cease from yielding fruit.
9 La mente es más engañosa que cualquier otra cosa: ¡está incurablemente enferma! ¿Quién puede entenderla?
9 The heart is deceitful above all things and it is exceedingly corrupt. Who can know it?
10 Pero yo, el Señor, veo lo que la gente piensa. Examino sus mentes, para poder recompensarlas según sus actitudes y su forma de comportarse.
10 “I, Yahweh, search the mind. I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.”
11 Como una perdiz que empolla huevos que no puso es alguien que hace una fortuna engañando a los demás. Sus riquezas volarán al mediodía, y al final quedarán como un tonto.
11 As the partridge that sits on eggs which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches, and not by right. In the middle of his days, they will leave him. At his end, he will be a fool.
12 Nuestro Templo es un trono de gloria, levantado en alto desde el principio.
12 A glorious throne, set on high from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.
13 Señor, tú eres la esperanza de Israel, cualquiera que te abandone será deshonrado. Cualquiera que te dé la espalda se desvanecerá como nombres escritos en el polvo, porque ha abandonado al Señor, la fuente de agua viva.
13 Yahweh, the hope of Israel, all who forsake you will be disappointed. Those who depart from me will be written in the earth, because they have forsaken Yahweh, the spring of living waters.
14 Sáname, Señor, y seré curado; sálvame, y seré salvado, porque a ti te alabo.
14 Heal me, O Yahweh, and I will be healed. Save me, and I will be saved; for you are my praise.
15 Mira cómo siguen diciéndome: “¿Dónde está el desastre que el Señor ha predicho? ¿Va a ocurrir alguna vez?”
15 Behold, they ask me, “Where is Yahweh’s word? Let it be fulfilled now.”
16 Pero no he tenido prisa por dejar de ser tu pastor. No he querido que llegara el tiempo de los problemas. Sabes que todo lo que he dicho lo he dicho delante de ti.
16 As for me, I have not hurried from being a shepherd after you. I haven’t desired the woeful day. You know. That which came out of my lips was before your face.
17 ¡Por favor, no seas tú quien me aterrorice! Tú eres mi protección en el tiempo de la angustia.
17 Don’t be a terror to me. You are my refuge in the day of evil.
18 Avergüenza a mis perseguidores, pero no a mí. Aterrorízalos a ellos, pero no a mí, haz que experimenten el tiempo de la angustia, y hazlos pedazos.
18 Let them be disappointed who persecute me, but don’t let me be disappointed. Let them be dismayed, but don’t let me be dismayed. Bring on them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
19 Esto es lo que me dijo el Señor: Ve y ponte en la puerta principal de la ciudad, la que usan los reyes de Judá, y haz lo mismo en todas las demás puertas de Jerusalén.
19 Yahweh said this to me: “Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, through which the kings of Judah come in and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem.
20 Diles: Escuchen el mensaje del Señor, reyes de Judá, y todos ustedes, pueblo de Judá y de Jerusalén, que entran por estas puertas.
20 Tell them, ‘Hear Yahweh’s word, you kings of Judah, all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:
21 Esto es lo que dice el Señor: ¡Presten atención, si valoran sus vidas! No lleven carga en el día de reposo, ni la introduzcan por las puertas de Jerusalén.
21 Yahweh says, “Be careful, and bear no burden on the Sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem.
22 No saquen carga de sus casas ni hagan ningún trabajo en el día de reposo. Santifiquen el día de reposo, tal como se lo ordené a sus antepasados.
22 Don’t carry a burden out of your houses on the Sabbath day. Don’t do any work, but make the Sabbath day holy, as I commanded your fathers.
23 Sin embargo, se negaron a escuchar o prestar atención. Por el contrario, fueron tercos y se negaron a obedecer o a aceptar la instrucción.
23 But they didn’t listen. They didn’t turn their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, and might not receive instruction.
24 Escúchenme bien, dice el Señor, y no introduzcan ninguna carga por las puertas de esta ciudad en el día de reposo, y santifiquen el día de reposo, y no hagan ningún trabajo en él.
24 It will happen, if you diligently listen to me,” says Yahweh, “to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, but to make the Sabbath day holy, to do no work therein;
25 Entonces reyes y príncipes entrarán por las puertas de esta ciudad. Se sentarán en el trono de David. Montarán en carros y en caballos con sus funcionarios, acompañados por el pueblo de Judá y los que viven en Jerusalén, y esta ciudad estará habitada para siempre.
25 then there will enter in by the gates of this city kings and princes sitting on David’s throne, riding in chariots and on horses, they and their princes, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and this city will remain forever.
26 Vendrá gente de las ciudades de Judá y de todos los alrededores de Jerusalén, de la tierra de Benjamín y de las tierras bajas, de la región montañosa y del Néguev. Traerán holocaustos y sacrificios, ofrendas de grano e incienso, y ofrendas de agradecimiento al Templo del Señor.
26 They will come from the cities of Judah, and from the places around Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin, from the lowland, from the hill country, and from the South, bringing burnt offerings, sacrifices, meal offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving to Yahweh’s house.
27 Pero si se niegan a escucharme y a santificar el día de reposo no llevando carga al entrar por las puertas de Jerusalén en el día de reposo, entonces incendiaré sus puertas con un fuego imposible de apagar, y quemará las fortalezas de Jerusalén.
27 But if you will not listen to me to make the Sabbath day holy, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in its gates, and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem. It will not be quenched.”’”

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).
… Christ above, who extended himself through Horos, and imparted a form to their mother; or is it He who is from the Virgin, Emmanuel, who did eat butter and honey, of whom the prophet declared, "He is also a man, and who shall know him?" He was likewise preached by Paul: "For I delivered," he says, "unto you first of …
… called his name Enos, which means man," and "He hoped to call on the name of the Lord God," are sufficient proof that man ought not to rest his hopes in himself; as it is elsewhere written, "Cursed is the man that trusteth in man." Consequently no one ought to trust in himself that he shall become a citizen of …

… to know men's secrets, hear what saith the prophet, "Thou most entirely alone knowest the hearts;" and again, "God trieth the hearts and reins; " and Jeremiah too saith, "The heart is deep above all things, and it is man, and who shall know him?" and, "Man shall look on the face, but God on the heart." And by many …

… lying images, wherein there is no profit." But that the Jews, by whom He behoved even to be slain, were not going to acknowledge Him, this prophet thus intimates: "Heavy is the heart through all; and He is a man, and who shall know Him?" That passage also is his which I have quoted in the seventeenth book concerning the …

For inasmuch as they continually disbelieved the prophets, and used to say, "Where is the day of the Lord:" and "let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel come, that we may know it," by reason that it was many years before what they said came to pass; to lead them off from this encouragement also, he sets the …
