1 For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
1 PORQUE Jehová tendrá piedad de Jacob, y todavía escogerá á Israel, y les hará reposar en su tierra: y á ellos se unirán extranjeros, y allegaránse á la familia de Jacob.
2 And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
2 Y los tomarán los pueblos, y traeránlos á su lugar: y la casa de Israel los poseerá por siervos y criadas en la tierra de Jehová: y cautivarán á los que los cautivaron, y señorearán á los que los oprimieron.
3 And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage in which thou wast made to serve,
3 Y será en el día que Jehová te diere reposo de tu trabajo, y de tu temor, y de la dura servidumbre en que te hicieron servir,
4 That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased!
4 Que levantarás esta parábola sobre el rey de Babilonia, y dirás: ¡Cómo paró el exactor, [cómo] cesó la ciudad codiciosa del oro!
5 The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, [and] the scepter of the rulers.
5 Quebrantó Jehová el bastón de los impíos, el cetro de los señores;
6 He who smote the people in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled the nations in anger, is persecuted, [and] none hindereth.
6 Al que con ira hería los pueblos de llaga permanente, el cual se enseñoreaba de las gentes con furor, y las perseguía con crueldad.
7 The whole earth is at rest, [and] is quiet: they break forth into singing.
7 Descansó, sosegó toda la tierra: cantaron alabanza.
8 Yes, the fir-trees rejoice at thee, [and] the cedars of Lebanon, [saying] , Since thou art laid down, no feller is come up against us.
8 Aun las hayas se holgaron de ti, y los cedros del Líbano, [diciendo]: Desde que tú pereciste, no ha subido cortador contra nosotros.
9 Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet [thee] at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, [even] all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.
9 El infierno abajo se espantó de ti; te despertó muertos que en tu venida saliesen á recibirte, hizo levantar de sus sillas á todos los príncipes de la tierra, á todos los reyes de las naciones.
10 All they shall speak and say to thee, Art thou also become weak as we? Art thou become like us?
10 Todos ellos darán voces, y te dirán: ¿Tú también enfermaste como nosotros, [y] como nosotros fuiste?
11 Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, [and] the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee.
11 Descendió al sepulcro tu soberbia, y el sonido de tus vihuelas: gusanos serán tu cama, y gusanos te cubrirán.
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! [how] art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
12 ¡Cómo caiste del cielo, oh Lucero, hijo de la mañana! Cortado fuiste por tierra, tú que debilitabas las gentes.
13 For thou hast said in thy heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
13 Tú que decías en tu corazón: Subiré al cielo, en lo alto junto á las estrellas de Dios ensalzaré mi solio, y en el monte del testimonio me sentaré, á los lados del aquilón;
14 I will ascend above the hights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High.
14 Sobre las alturas de las nubes subiré, y seré semejante al Altísimo.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
15 Mas tú derribado eres en el sepulcro, á los lados de la huesa.
16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, [and] consider thee, [saying] , [Is] this the man that made the earth to tremble, that shook kingdoms:
16 Inclinarse han hacia ti los que te vieren, te considerarán [diciendo]: ¿Es este aquel varón que hacía temblar la tierra, que trastornaba los reinos;
17 [That] made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed its cities; [that] opened not the house of his prisoners?
17 Que puso el mundo como un desierto, que asoló sus ciudades; que á sus presos nunca abrió la cárcel?
18 All the kings of the nations, [even] all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house.
18 Todos los reyes de las gentes, todos ellos yacen con honra cada uno en su casa.
19 But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, [and as] the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcass trodden under feet.
19 Mas tú echado eres de tu sepulcro como tronco abominable, [como] vestido de muertos pasados á cuchillo, que descendieron al fondo de la sepultura; como cuerpo muerto hollado.
20 Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, [and] slain thy people: the seed of evil-doers shall never be renowned.
20 No serás contado con ellos en la sepultura: porque tú destruiste tu tierra, mataste tu pueblo. No será nombrada para siempre la simiente de los malignos.
21 Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they may not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities.
21 Aparejad sus hijos para el matadero por la maldad de sus padres: no se levanten, ni posean la tierra, é hinchan la haz del mundo de ciudades.
22 For I will arise against them, saith the LORD of hosts, and cut off from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the LORD.
22 Porque yo me levantaré sobre ellos, dice Jehová de los ejércitos, y raeré de Babilonia el nombre y las reliquias, hijo y nieto, dice Jehová.
23 I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts.
23 Y convertiréla en posesión de erizos, y en lagunas de agua; y la barreré con escobas de destrucción, dice Jehová de los ejércitos.
24 The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, [so] shall it stand.
24 Jehová de los ejércitos juró, diciendo: Ciertamente se hará de la manera que lo he pensado, y será confirmado como lo he determinado:
25 That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders.
25 Que quebrantaré al Asirio en mi tierra, y en mis montes lo hollaré; y su yugo será apartado de ellos, y su carga será quitada de su hombro.
26 This [is] the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this [is] the hand that is stretched over all the nations.
26 Este [es] el consejo que está acordado sobre toda la tierra; y ésta, la mano extendida sobre todas las gentes.
27 For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul [it] ? and his hand [is] stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
27 Porque Jehová de los ejércitos ha determinado: ¿y quién invalidará? Y su mano extendida, ¿quién la hará tornar?
28 In the year that king Ahaz died was this burden.
28 En el año que murió el rey Achâz fué esta carga:
29 Rejoice not thou, all Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit [shall be] a fiery flying serpent.
29 No te alegres tú, Filistea toda, por haberse quebrado la vara del que te hería; porque de la raíz de la culebra saldrá basilisco, y su fruto, ceraste volador.
30 And the first-born of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety: and I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay thy remnant.
30 Y los primogénitos de los pobres serán apacentados, y los menesterosos se acostarán seguramente: mas yo haré morir de hambre tu raíz, y mataré tus reliquias.
31 Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, all Palestina, [art] dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none [shall be] alone in his appointed times.
31 Aulla, oh puerta; clama, oh ciudad; disuelta estás toda tú, Filistea: porque humo vendrá de aquilón, no quedará uno solo en sus asambleas.
32 What shall [one] then answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it.
32 ¿Y qué se responderá á los mensajeros de la gentilidad? Que Jehová fundó á Sión, y que á ella se acogerán los afligidos de su pueblo.

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).
… loved and feared, not for Thy sake, but in Thy stead, by which means, being made like unto him, he may have them as his, not in harmony of love, but in the fellowship of punishment; who aspired to exalt his throne in the north, that dark and cold they might serve him, imitating Thee in perverse and distorted ways.

Such an one was he that saith, "I will exalt my throne above the Heavens." and did not account himself to be worthy so much as of the title of the apostles, after so many and so great deeds of goodness.

And how do they answer the prophetic proofs,--either what Isaiah says when he represents the devil under the person of the king of Babylon, "How art thou fallen, O Lucifer, son of the morning!" or what Ezekiel says, "Thou hast been in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering," where it is meant that he was …

For example, what is said in Isaiah, "How he is fallen from heaven, Lucifer, son of the morning!" and the other statements of the context which, under the figure of the king of Babylon, are made about the same person, are of course to be understood of the devil; and yet the statement which is made in the same place, …
