Webster Noah Webster's Bible (1833)
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
1 ESCUCHAD, cielos, y hablaré; y oiga la tierra los dichos de mi boca.
2 My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distill as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass:
2 Goteará como la lluvia mi doctrina; destilará como el rocío mi razonamiento; como la llovizna sobre la grama, y como las gotas sobre la hierba:
3 Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness to our God.
3 Porque el nombre de Jehová invocaré: engrandeced á nuestro Dios.
4 [He is] the Rock, his work [is] perfect: for all his ways [are] judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity: just and right [is] he.
4 [El es] la Roca, cuya obra es perfecta, porque todos sus caminos son rectitud: Dios de verdad, y ninguna iniquidad en él: es justo y recto.
5 They have corrupted themselves, their spot [is] not [the spot] of his children: [they are] a perverse and crooked generation.
5 La corrupción no [es] suya: á sus hijos la mancha de ellos, generación torcida y perversa.
6 Do ye thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? [is] not he thy father [that] hath bought thee? hath he not made thee, and established thee?
6 ¿Así pagáis á Jehová, pueblo loco é ignorante? ¿no es él tu padre que te poseyó? él te hizo y te ha organizado.
7 Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will show thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.
7 Acuérdate de los tiempos antiguos; considerad los años de generación y generación: pregunta á tu padre, que él te declarará; á tus viejos, y ellos te dirán.
8◆ When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.
8 Cuando el Altísimo hizo heredar á las gentes, cuando hizo dividir los hijos de los hombres, estableció los términos de los pueblos según el número de los hijos de Israel.
9◆ For the LORD'S portion [is] his people; Jacob [is] the lot of his inheritance.
9 Porque la parte de Jehová es su pueblo; Jacob la cuerda de su heredad.
10 He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye.
10 Hallólo en tierra de desierto, y en desierto horrible y yermo; trájolo alrededor, instruyólo, guardólo como la niña de su ojo.
11 As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings;
11 Como el águila despierta su nidada, revolotea sobre sus pollos, extiende sus alas, los toma, los lleva sobre sus plumas:
12 [So] the LORD alone did lead him, and [there was] no strange God with him.
12 Jehová solo le guió, que no hubo con él dios ajeno.
13 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;
13 Hízolo subir sobre las alturas de la tierra, y comió los frutos del campo, é hizo que chupase miel de la peña, y aceite del duro pedernal;
14 Butter of cows, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape.
14 Manteca de vacas y leche de ovejas, con grosura de corderos, y carneros de Basán; también machos de cabrío, con grosura de riñones de trigo: y sangre de uva bebiste, vino puro.
15 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou hast waxed fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered [with fatness] ; then he forsook God [who] made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.
15 Y engrosó Jeshurun, y tiró coces: engordástete, engrosástete, cubrístete: y dejó al Dios que le hizo, y menospreció la Roca de su salud.
16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange [gods] , with abominations they provoked him to anger.
16 Despertáronle á celos con los [dioses] ajenos; ensañáronle con abominaciones.
17 They sacrificed to devils, not to God; to gods which they knew not, to new [gods that] came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
17 Sacrificaron á los diablos, no á Dios; á dioses que no habían conocido, á nuevos [dioses] venidos de cerca, que no habían temido vuestros padres.
18 Of the Rock [that] begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
18 De la Roca que te crió te olvidaste: te has olvidado del Dios tu criador.
19 And when the LORD saw [it] , he abhorred [them] , because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
19 Y vió[lo] Jehová, y encendióse en ira, por el menosprecio de sus hijos y de sus hijas.
20 And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end [will be] : for they [are] a very froward generation, children in whom [is] no faith.
20 Y dijo: Esconderé de ellos mi rostro, veré cuál será su postrimería: que son generación de perversidades, hijos sin fe.
21 They have moved me to jealousy with [that which is] not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with [those who are] not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
21 Ellos me movieron á celos con lo que no es Dios; hiciéronme ensañar con sus vanidades: yo también los moveré á celos con [un pueblo que] no [es] pueblo, con gente insensata los haré ensañar.
22 For a fire is kindled in my anger, and shall burn to the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.
22 Porque fuego se encenderá en mi furor, y arderá hasta el profundo; y devorará la tierra y sus frutos, y abrasará los fundamentos de los montes.
23 I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend my arrows upon them.
23 Yo allegaré males sobre ellos; emplearé en ellos mis saetas.
24 [They shall be] burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.
24 Consumidos [serán] de hambre, y comidos de fiebre ardiente y de amarga pestilencia; diente de bestias enviaré también sobre ellos, con veneno de serpiente de la tierra.
25 The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling [also] with the man of gray hairs.
25 De fuera desolará la espada, y dentro de las cámaras el espanto; así al mancebo como á la doncella, al que mama como el hombre cano.
26 I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men;
26 Dije: Echaríalos yo del mundo, haría cesar de entre los hombres la memoria de ellos,
27 Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, [and] lest they should say, Our hand [is] high, and the LORD hath not done all this.
27 Si no temiese la ira del enemigo, no sea que se envanezcan sus adversarios, no sea que digan: Nuestra mano alta ha hecho todo esto, no Jehová.
28 For they [are] a nation void of counsel, neither [is there any] understanding in them.
28 Porque son gente de perdidos consejos, y no hay en ellos entendimiento.
29 O that they were wise, [that] they understood this, [that] they would consider their latter end!
29 ¡Ojalá fueran sabios, que comprendieran esto, y entendieran su postrimería!
30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut them up?
30 ¿Cómo podría perseguir uno á mil, y dos harían huir á diez mil, si su Roca no los hubiese vendido, y Jehová no los hubiera entregado?
31 For their rock [is] not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves [being] judges:
31 Que la roca de ellos no es como nuestra Roca: y nuestros enemigos [sean de ello] jueces.
32 For their vine [is] of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes [are] grapes of gall, their clusters [are] bitter:
32 Porque de la vid de Sodoma es la vid de ellos, y de los sarmientos de Gomorra: las uvas de ellos son uvas ponzoñosas, racimos muy amargos tienen.
33 Their wine [is] the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.
33 Veneno de dragones es su vino, y ponzoña cruel de áspides.
34 [Is] not this laid up in store with me, [and] sealed up among my treasures?
34 ¿No tengo yo esto guardado, sellado en mis tesoros?
35 To me [belongeth] vengeance, and recompense; their foot shall slide in [due] time: for the day of their calamity [is] at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.
35 Mía es la venganza y el pago, al tiempo que su pie vacilará; porque el día de su aflicción está cercano, y lo que les está preparado se apresura.
36 For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent for his servants: when he seeth that [their] power is gone, and [there is] none shut up, or left.
36 Porque Jehová juzgará á su pueblo, y por amor de sus siervos se arrepentirá, cuando viere que la fuerza pereció, y que no hay guardado, mas desamparado.
37 And he shall say, Where [are] their gods, [their] rock in whom they trusted,
37 Y dirá: ¿Dónde están sus dioses, la roca en que se guarecían;
38 Which ate the fat of their sacrifices, [and] drank the wine of their drink-offerings? let them rise up and help you, [and] be your protection.
38 Que comían el sebo de sus sacrificios, bebían el vino de sus libaciones? Levántense, que os ayuden y os defiendan.
39 See now that I, [even] I [am] he, and [there is] no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither [is there any] that can deliver out of my hand.
39 Ved ahora que yo, yo soy, y no hay dioses conmigo: yo hago morir, y yo hago vivir: yo hiero, y yo curo: y no hay quien pueda librar de mi mano.
40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.
40 Cuando yo alzaré á los cielos mi mano, y diré: Vivo yo para siempre,
41 If I shall whet my glittering sword, and my hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to my enemies, and will reward them that hate me.
41 Si afilare mi reluciente espada, y mi mano arrebatare el juicio, yo volveré la venganza á mis enemigos, y daré el pago á los que me aborrecen.
42 I will make my arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; [and that] with the blood of the slain and of the captives from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy.
42 Embriagaré de sangre mis saetas, y mi espada devorará carne: en la sangre de los muertos y de los cautivos de las cabezas, con venganzas de enemigo.
43 Rejoice, O ye nations, [with] his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful to his land, [and] to his people.
43 Alabad, gentes, á su pueblo, porque él vengará la sangre de sus siervos, y volverá la venganza á sus enemigos, y expiará su tierra, á su pueblo.
44 And Moses came and spoke all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he and Hoshea the son of Nun.
44 Y vino Moisés, y recitó todas las palabras de este cántico á oídos del pueblo, él, y Josué hijo de Nun.
45 And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel;
45 Y acabó Moisés de recitar todas estas palabras á todo Israel;
46 And he said to them, Set your hearts to all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
46 Y díjoles: Poned vuestro corazón á todas las palabras que yo os protesto hoy, para que las mandéis á vuestros hijos, y cuiden de poner por obra todas las palabras de esta ley.
47 For it [is] not a vain thing for you: because it [is] your life; and through this thing ye shall prolong [your] days in the land whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.
47 Porque no os es cosa vana, mas es vuestra vida: y por ellas haréis prolongar los días sobre la tierra, para poseer la cual pasáis el Jordán.
48 And the LORD spoke to Moses that same day, saying,
48 Y habló Jehová á Moisés aquel mismo día, diciendo:
49 Ascend this mountain Abarim, [to] mount Nebo, which [is] in the land of Moab, that [is] over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan which I give to the children of Israel for a Possession:
49 Sube á este monte de Abarim, al monte Nebo, que está en la tierra de Moab, que está en derecho de Jericó, y mira la tierra de Canaán, que yo doy por heredad á los hijos de Israel;
50 And die in the mount whither thou goest, and be gathered to thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered to his people:
50 Y muere en el monte al cual subes, y sé reunido á tus pueblos; al modo que murió Aarón tu hermano en el monte de Hor, y fué reunido á sus pueblos:
51 Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel.
51 Por cuanto prevaricasteis contra mí en medio de los hijos de Israel en las aguas de la rencilla de Cades, en el desierto de Zin; porque no me santificasteis en medio de los hijos de Israel.
52 Yet thou shalt see the land before [thee] , but thou shalt not go thither to the land which I give the children of Israel.
52 Verás por tanto delante de ti la tierra; mas no entrarás allá, á la tierra que doy á los hijos de Israel.

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).
