1 Cuando eso suceda, declara el Señor, los huesos de los reyes de Judá, los huesos de los funcionarios, los huesos de los sacerdotes, los huesos de los profetas y los huesos del pueblo de Jerusalén serán sacados de sus tumbas.
1 “At that time,” says Yahweh, “they will bring the bones of the kings of Judah, the bones of his princes, the bones of the priests, the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves.
2 Yacerán expuestos al sol y a la luna, y a todas las estrellas que amaron, a las que sirvieron, a las que siguieron, a las que consultaron y a las que adoraron. Sus huesos no se recogerán ni se volverán a enterrar, sino que se quedarán como estiércol tirado en el suelo.
2 They will spread them before the sun, the moon, and all the army of the sky, which they have loved, which they have served, after which they have walked, which they have sought, and which they have worshiped. They will not be gathered or be buried. They will be like dung on the surface of the earth.
3 Los que queden de esta familia malvada preferirán morir antes que vivir en todos los lugares donde los he dispersado, declara el Señor Todopoderoso.
3 Death will be chosen rather than life by all the residue that remain of this evil family, that remain in all the places where I have driven them,” says Yahweh of Armies.
4 Diles que esto es lo que dice el Señor: Cuando la gente se cae, ¿no se levanta de nuevo? Cuando la gente se equivoca de camino, ¿no se regresa?
4 “Moreover you shall tell them, ‘Yahweh says: “‘Do men fall, and not rise up again? Does one turn away, and not return?
5 Entonces, ¿por qué este pueblo de Jerusalén se ha equivocado de camino? ¿Por qué se niegan a arrepentirse de sus repetidas traiciones, aferrándose a todas sus mentiras?
5 Why then have the people of Jerusalem fallen back by a perpetual backsliding? They cling to deceit. They refuse to return.
6 He oído exactamente lo que han dicho, pero no dicen la verdad. Nadie se arrepiente de haber hecho el mal, preguntando: “¿Qué he hecho?” . Cada uno elige su propio camino, como un caballo que se lanza a la batalla.
6 I listened and heard, but they didn’t say what is right. No one repents of his wickedness, saying, “What have I done?” Everyone turns to his course, as a horse that rushes headlong in the battle.
7 Incluso las cigüeñas en lo alto del cielo saben cuándo es el momento de emigrar. Las tórtolas, los vencejos y los pájaros cantores saben cuándo volar en el momento adecuado del año. Pero mi pueblo no conoce las leyes del Señor.
7 Yes, the stork in the sky knows her appointed times. The turtledove, the swallow, and the crane observe the time of their coming; but my people don’t know Yahweh’s law.
8 ¿Cómo pueden decir: “Somos sabios y tenemos la Ley del Señor”? ¿No ves que los escritos de tus maestros de la Ley la han convertido en mentira?
8 “‘How do you say, “We are wise, and Yahweh’s law is with us”? But, behold, the false pen of the scribes has made that a lie.
9 Los sabios se mostrarán necios; se escandalizarán al ser descubiertos. ¿No ven que han rechazado lo que dice el Señor? ¿Acaso tienen alguna sabiduría?
9 The wise men are disappointed. They are dismayed and trapped. Behold, they have rejected Yahweh’s word. What kind of wisdom is in them?
10 Voy a entregar sus esposas a otros, y sus campos a diferentes dueños, ya que todos mienten porque son codiciosos, tanto los pobres como los ricos. Incluso los profetas y los sacerdotes: ¡todos son unos mentirosos deshonestos!
10 Therefore I will give their wives to others and their fields to those who will possess them. For everyone from the least even to the greatest is given to covetousness; from the prophet even to the priest everyone deals falsely.
11 Le dan a mis heridos los primeros auxilios, pero en realidad no se preocupan por ellos. Les dicen: “¡No te preocupes! Tenemos paz!”, aunque se acerque la guerra.
11 They have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, “Peace, peace,” when there is no peace.
12 ¿Se avergüenzan de las cosas repugnantes que hicieron? No, no se avergüenzan en absoluto, ni siquiera son capaces de sonrojarse. Por eso caerán como los demás, cuando los castigue; caerán muertos, dice el Señor.
12 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? No, they were not at all ashamed. They couldn’t blush. Therefore they will fall among those who fall. In the time of their visitation they will be cast down, says Yahweh.
13 Voy a destruirlos, declara el Señor. No quedarán uvas en las vides, ni higos en los árboles; hasta las hojas se marchitarán. Perderán todo lo que les di.
13 “‘I will utterly consume them, says Yahweh. No grapes will be on the vine, no figs on the fig tree, and the leaf will fade. The things that I have given them will pass away from them.’”
14 La gente dice: “¿Por qué estamos sentados aquí? Juntémonos y corramos a las ciudades fortificadas. Allí podemos morir, porque el Señor, nuestro Dios, nos está matando dándonos a beber agua envenenada, porque pecamos contra él.
14 “Why do we sit still? Assemble yourselves! Let’s enter into the fortified cities, and let’s be silent there; for Yahweh our God has put us to silence, and given us poisoned water to drink, because we have sinned against Yahweh.
15 Esperábamos la paz, pero en lugar de eso no ha llegado nada bueno; esperábamos un tiempo de curación, pero en lugar de eso sólo ha habido terror repentino”.
15 We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of healing, and behold, dismay!
16 El bramido de los caballos enemigos se oye desde Dan. Todo el país se estremece de miedo al oír los relinchos de estos fuertes sementales. Han venido a destruir el país y todo lo que hay en él; Jerusalén y todos los que viven en ella.
16 The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan. The whole land trembles at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones; for they have come, and have devoured the land and all that is in it, the city and those who dwell therein.”
17 ¡Cuidado! Estoy enviando serpientes entre ustedes, víboras que no pueden ser encantadas. Vendrán a morderte, declara el Señor.
17 “For, behold, I will send serpents, adders among you, which will not be charmed; and they will bite you,” says Yahweh.
18 Nada me consuela en medio de mi sufrimiento; Me siento terrible por dentro.
18 Oh that I could comfort myself against sorrow! My heart is faint within me.
19 Escucha a mi pueblo clamando por ayuda desde una tierra lejana, preguntando: “¿Ya no está presente el Señor en Sión? ¿Se ha ido su Rey?” ¿Por qué me han hecho enojar, adorando sus imágenes esculpidas y sus inútiles ídolos extranjeros?
19 Behold, the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people from a land that is very far off: “Isn’t Yahweh in Zion? Isn’t her King in her?” “Why have they provoked me to anger with their engraved images, and with foreign idols?”
20 “La cosecha ha terminado, el verano ha acabado, pero no estamos salvados”, dice la gente.
20 “The harvest is past. The summer has ended, and we are not saved.”
21 Estoy abatido por las heridas sufridas por mi pueblo; estoy de luto por ellos. ¡Estoy horrorizado por lo que ha sucedido!
21 For the hurt of the daughter of my people, I am hurt. I mourn. Dismay has taken hold of me.
22 ¿No hay ningún ungüento de Galaad que ayude a curarlos? ¿No hay médicos allí? ¿Por qué mi pueblo no se ha curado de sus heridas?
22 Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then isn’t the health of the daughter of my people recovered?

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).
… hear the voice of his swift horses from Dan; the whole earth shall be moved by the voice of the neighing of his galloping horses: he shall also come and devour the earth, and the fulness thereof, the city also, and they that dwell therein." This, too, is the reason that this tribe is not reckoned in the Apocalypse along …
But about not despairing, it is said, "Doth he fall, and not arise? Doth he turn away, and not return?" and, "I do not will the death of the sinner, so much as that he should turn and live:" and, "To-day if ye will hear His voice:" and many other such things, both sayings and examples are set in the …
