RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

1 These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the Arabah opposite Suf, between Paran, Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab.

1 ESTAS son las palabras que habló Moisés á todo Israel de esta parte del Jordán en el desierto, en el llano delante del mar Bermejo, entre Parán, y Thopel, y Labán, y Haseroth, y Dizahab.

2 It is eleven days’ journey from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadesh Barnea.

2 Once jornadas hay desde Horeb, camino del monte de Seir, hasta Cades-barnea.

3 In the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, Moses spoke to the children of Israel according to all that Yahweh had given him in commandment to them,

3 Y fué, que á los cuarenta años, en el mes undécimo, al primero del mes, Moisés habló á los hijos de Israel conforme á todas las cosas que Jehová le había mandado acerca de ellos;

4 after he had struck Sihon the king of the Amorites who lived in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan who lived in Ashtaroth, at Edrei.

4 Después que hirió á Sehón rey de los Amorrheos, que habitaba en Hesbón, y á Og rey de Basán, que habitaba en Astarot en Edrei:

5 Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, Moses began to declare this law, saying,

5 De esta parte del Jordán, en tierra de Moab, resolvió Moisés declarar esta ley, diciendo:

6 “Yahweh our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying, ‘You have lived long enough at this mountain.

6 Jehová nuestro Dios nos habló en Horeb, diciendo: Harto habéis estado en este monte;

7 Turn, and take your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites and to all the places near there: in the Arabah, in the hill country, in the lowland, in the South, by the seashore, in the land of the Canaanites, and in Lebanon as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.

7 Volveos, partíos é id al monte del Amorrheo, y á todas sus comarcas, en el llano, en el monte, y en los valles, y al mediodía, y á la costa de la mar, á la tierra del Cananeo, y el Líbano, hasta el gran río, el río Eufrates.

8 Behold, I have set the land before you. Go in and possess the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers—to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob—to give to them and to their offspring after them.’”

8 Mirad, yo he dado la tierra en vuestra presencia; entrad y poseed la tierra que Jehová juró á vuestros padres Abraham, Isaac, y Jacob, que les daría á ellos y á su simiente después de ellos.

9 I spoke to you at that time, saying, “I am not able to bear you myself alone.

9 Y yo os hablé entonces, diciendo: Yo no puedo llevaros solo:

10 Yahweh your God has multiplied you, and behold, you are today as the stars of the sky for multitude.

10 Jehová vuestro Dios os ha multiplicado, y he aquí sois hoy vosotros como las estrellas del cielo en multitud.

11 May Yahweh, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as you are and bless you, as he has promised you!

11 ¡Jehová Dios de vuestros padres añada sobre vosotros como sois mil veces, y os bendiga, como os ha prometido!

12 How can I myself alone bear your problems, your burdens, and your strife?

12 ¿Cómo llevaré yo solo vuestras molestias, vuestras cargas, y vuestros pleitos?

13 Take wise men of understanding who are respected among your tribes, and I will make them heads over you.”

13 Dad[me] de entre vosotros, de vuestras tribus, varones sabios y entendidos y expertos, para que yo los ponga por vuestros jefes.

14 You answered me, and said, “The thing which you have spoken is good to do.”

14 Y me respondisteis, y dijisteis: Bueno es hacer lo que has dicho.

15 So I took the heads of your tribes, wise and respected men, and made them heads over you, captains of thousands, captains of hundreds, captains of fifties, captains of tens, and officers, according to your tribes.

15 Y tomé los principales de vuestras tribus, varones sabios y expertos, y púselos por jefes sobre vosotros, jefes de millares, y jefes de cientos, y jefes de cincuenta, y cabos de diez, y gobernadores á vuestras tribus.

16 I commanded your judges at that time, saying, “Hear cases between your brothers and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and the foreigner who is living with him.

16 Y entonces mandé á vuestros jueces, diciendo: Oid entre vuestros hermanos, y juzgad justamente entre el hombre y su hermano, y el que le es extranjero.

17 You shall not show partiality in judgment; you shall hear the small and the great alike. You shall not be afraid of the face of man, for the judgment is God’s. The case that is too hard for you, you shall bring to me, and I will hear it.”

17 No tengáis respeto de personas en el juicio: así al pequeño como al grande oiréis: no tendréis temor de ninguno, porque el juicio es de Dios: y la causa que os fuere difícil, la traeréis á mí, y yo la oiré.

18 I commanded you at that time all the things which you should do.

18 Os mandé, pues, en aquel tiempo todo lo que habíais de hacer.

19 We traveled from Horeb and went through all that great and terrible wilderness which you saw, by the way to the hill country of the Amorites, as Yahweh our God commanded us; and we came to Kadesh Barnea.

19 Y partidos de Horeb, anduvimos todo aquel grande y terrible desierto que habéis visto, por el camino del monte del Amorrheo, como Jehová nuestro Dios nos lo mandó; y llegamos hasta Cades-barnea.

20 I said to you, “You have come to the hill country of the Amorites, which Yahweh our God gives to us.

20 Entonces os dije: Llegado habéis al monte del Amorrheo, el cual Jehová nuestro Dios nos da.

21 Behold, Yahweh your God has set the land before you. Go up, take possession, as Yahweh the God of your fathers has spoken to you. Don’t be afraid, neither be dismayed.”

21 Mira, Jehová tu Dios ha dado delante de ti la tierra: sube y posée[la], como Jehová el Dios de tus padres te ha dicho; no temas ni desmayes.

22 You came near to me, everyone of you, and said, “Let’s send men before us, that they may search the land for us, and bring back to us word of the way by which we must go up, and the cities to which we shall come.”

22 Y llegasteis á mí todos vosotros, y dijisteis: Enviemos varones delante de nosotros, que nos reconozcan la tierra y nos traigan de vuelta razón del camino por donde hemos de subir, y de las ciudades adonde hemos de llegar.

23 The thing pleased me well. I took twelve of your men, one man for every tribe.

23 Y el dicho me pareció bien: y tomé doce varones de vosotros, un varón por tribu:

24 They turned and went up into the hill country, and came to the valley of Eshcol, and spied it out.

24 Y se encaminaron, y subieron al monte, y llegaron hasta la arroyada de Escol, y reconocieron [la tierra].

25 They took some of the fruit of the land in their hands and brought it down to us, and brought us word again, and said, “It is a good land which Yahweh our God gives to us.”

25 Y tomaron en sus manos del fruto del país, y nos lo trajeron, y diéronnos cuenta, y dijeron: Es buena la tierra que Jehová nuestro Dios nos da.

26 Yet you wouldn’t go up, but rebelled against the commandment of Yahweh your God.

26 Empero no quisisteis subir, antes fuisteis rebeldes al dicho de Jehová vuestro Dios;

27 You murmured in your tents, and said, “Because Yahweh hated us, he has brought us out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites to destroy us.

27 Y murmurasteis en vuestras tiendas, diciendo: Porque Jehová nos aborrecía, nos ha sacado de tierra de Egipto, para entregarnos en mano del Amorrheo para destruirnos.

28 Where are we going up? Our brothers have made our heart melt, saying, ‘The people are greater and taller than we. The cities are great and fortified up to the sky. Moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there!’”

28 ¿A dónde subimos? Nuestros hermanos han hecho desfallecer nuestro corazón, diciendo: Este pueblo es mayor y más alto que nosotros, las ciudades grandes y muradas hasta el cielo; y también vimos allí hijos de gigantes.

29 Then I said to you, “Don’t be terrified. Don’t be afraid of them.

29 Entonces os dije: No temáis, ni tengáis miedo de ellos.

30 Yahweh your God, who goes before you, he will fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes,

30 Jehová vuestro Dios, el cual va delante de vosotros, él peleará por vosotros, conforme á todas las cosas que hizo por vosotros en Egipto delante de vuestros ojos;

31 and in the wilderness where you have seen how that Yahweh your God carried you, as a man carries his son, in all the way that you went, until you came to this place.”

31 Y en el desierto has visto que Jehová tu Dios te ha traído, como trae el hombre á su hijo, por todo el camino que habéis andado, hasta que habéis venido á este lugar.

32 Yet in this thing you didn’t believe Yahweh your God,

32 Y aun con esto no creisteis en Jehová vuestro Dios,

33 who went before you on the way, to seek out a place for you to pitch your tents in: in fire by night, to show you by what way you should go, and in the cloud by day.

33 El cual iba delante de vosotros por el camino, para reconoceros el lugar donde habíais de asentar el campo, con fuego de noche para mostraros el camino por donde anduvieseis, y con nube de día.

34 Yahweh heard the voice of your words and was angry, and swore, saying,

34 Y oyó Jehová la voz de vuestras palabras, y enojóse, y juró diciendo:

35 “Surely not one of these men of this evil generation shall see the good land which I swore to give to your fathers,

35 No verá hombre alguno de estos de esta mala generación, la buena tierra que juré había de dar á vuestros padres,

36 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh. He shall see it. I will give the land that he has trodden on to him and to his children, because he has wholly followed Yahweh.”

36 Excepto Caleb hijo de Jephone: él la verá, y á él le daré la tierra que pisó, y á sus hijos; porque cumplió en pos de Jehová.

37 Also Yahweh was angry with me for your sakes, saying, “You also shall not go in there.

37 Y también contra mí se airó Jehová por vosotros, diciendo: Tampoco tú entrarás allá:

38 Joshua the son of Nun, who stands before you, shall go in there. Encourage him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

38 Josué hijo de Nun, que está delante de ti, él entrará allá: anímale; porque él la hará heredar á Israel.

39 Moreover your little ones, whom you said would be captured or killed, your children, who today have no knowledge of good or evil, shall go in there. I will give it to them, and they shall possess it.

39 Y vuestros chiquitos, de los cuales dijisteis serán por presa, y vuestros hijos que no saben hoy bueno ni malo, ellos entrarán allá, y á ellos la daré, y ellos la heredarán.

40 But as for you, turn, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.”

40 Y vosotros volveos, y partíos al desierto camino del mar Bermejo.

41 Then you answered and said to me, “We have sinned against Yahweh. We will go up and fight, according to all that Yahweh our God commanded us.” Every man of you put on his weapons of war, and presumed to go up into the hill country.

41 Entonces respondisteis y me dijisteis: Pecado hemos contra Jehová; nosotros subiremos y pelearemos, conforme á todo lo que Jehová nuestro Dios nos ha mandado. Y os armasteis cada uno de sus armas de guerra, y os apercibisteis para subir al monte.

42 Yahweh said to me, “Tell them, ‘Don’t go up and don’t fight; for I am not among you, lest you be struck before your enemies.’”

42 Y Jehová me dijo: Diles: No subáis, ni peleéis, pues no estoy entre vosotros; porque no seáis heridos delante de vuestros enemigos.

43 So I spoke to you, and you didn’t listen; but you rebelled against the commandment of Yahweh, and were presumptuous, and went up into the hill country.

43 Y os hablé, y no disteis oído; antes fuisteis rebeldes al dicho de Jehová, y persistiendo con altivez, subisteis al monte.

44 The Amorites, who lived in that hill country, came out against you and chased you as bees do, and beat you down in Seir, even to Hormah.

44 Y salió el Amorrheo, que habitaba en aquel monte, á vuestro encuentro, y os persiguieron, como hacen las avispas, y os derrotaron en Seir, [persiguiéndoos] hasta Horma.

45 You returned and wept before Yahweh, but Yahweh didn’t listen to your voice, nor turn his ear to you.

45 Y volvisteis, y llorasteis delante de Jehová; pero Jehová no escuchó vuestra voz, ni os prestó oído.

46 So you stayed in Kadesh many days, according to the days that you remained.

46 Y estuvisteis en Cades por muchos días, como en los días que habéis estado.
