1 For behold, the LORD, the LORD of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the rod and the staff, the whole support of bread, and the whole support of water,
1 PORQUE he aquí que el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos quita de Jerusalem y de Judá el sustentador y el fuerte, todo sustento de pan y todo socorro de agua;
2 The mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient,
2 El valiente y el hombre de guerra, el juez y el profeta, el adivino y el anciano;
3 The captain of fifty, and the honorable man, and the counselor, and the skillful artificer, and the eloquent orator.
3 El capitán de cincuenta, y el hombre de respeto, y el consejero, y el artífice excelente, y el hábil orador.
4 And I will give children [to be] their princes, and babes shall rule over them.
4 Y pondréles mozos por príncipes, y muchachos serán sus señores.
5 And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbor: the child shall behave himself proudly against the elder, and the base against the honorable.
5 Y el pueblo hará violencia los unos á los otros, cada cual contra su vecino: el mozo se levantará contra el viejo, y el villano contra el noble.
6 When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father, [saying] , Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and [let] this ruin [be] under thy hand:
6 Cuando alguno trabare de su hermano, de la familia de su padre, [y le dijere], Que vestir tienes, tú serás nuestro príncipe, y sea en tu mano esta ruina;
7 In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be a healer; for in my house [is] neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people.
7 El jurará aquel día, diciendo: No tomaré ese cuidado; porque en mi casa ni hay pan, ni qué vestir: no me hagáis príncipe del pueblo.
8 For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings [are] against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
8 Pues arruinada está Jerusalem, y Judá ha caído; porque la lengua de ellos y sus obras han sido contra Jehová, para irritar los ojos de su majestad.
9 The show of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide [it] not. Woe to their soul! for they have rewarded evil to themselves.
9 La apariencia del rostro de ellos los convence: que como Sodoma predican su pecado, no lo disimulan. ¡Ay del alma de ellos! porque allegaron mal para sí.
10 Say ye to the righteous, that [it shall be] well [with him] : for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
10 Decid al justo que [le irá] bien: porque comerá de los frutos de sus manos.
11 Woe to the wicked! [it shall be] ill [with him] : for the reward of his hands shall be given him.
11 ¡Ay del impío! mal [le irá]: porque según las obras de sus manos le será pagado.
12 [As for] my people, children [are] their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they who lead thee cause [thee] to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.
12 Los exactores de mi pueblo son muchachos, y mujeres se enseñorearon de él. Pueblo mío, los que te guían te engañan, y tuercen la carrera de tus caminos.
13 The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the people.
13 Jehová está en pie para litigar, y está para juzgar los pueblos.
14 The LORD will enter into judgment with the elders of his people, and with their princes: for ye have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor [is] in your houses.
14 Jehová vendrá á juicio contra los ancianos de su pueblo y contra sus príncipes; porque vosotros habéis devorado la viña, y el despojo del pobre está en vuestras casas.
15 What mean ye [that] ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the LORD God of hosts.
15 ¿Qué pensáis vosotros que majáis mi pueblo, y moléis las caras de los pobres? dice el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos.
16 Moreover the LORD saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with extended necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing [as] they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:
16 Asimismo dice Jehová: Por cuanto las hijas de Sión se ensoberbecen, y andan cuellierguidas y los ojos descompuestos; cuando andan van danzando, y haciendo son con los pies:
17 Therefore the LORD will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will uncover their secret parts.
17 Por tanto, pelará el Señor la mollera de las hijas de Sión, y Jehová descubrirá sus vergüenzas.
18 In that day the LORD will take away the show of [their] tinkling ornaments [about their feet] , and [their] cauls, and [their] round tires like the moon.
18 Aquel día quitará el Señor el atavío de los calzados, y las redecillas, y las lunetas;
19 The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,
19 Los collares, y los joyeles, y los brazaletes;
20 The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the head-bands, and the tablets, and the ear-rings,
20 Las escofietas, y los atavíos de las piernas, los partidores del pelo, los pomitos de olor, y los zarcillos;
21 The rings, and nose-jewels,
21 Los anillos, y los joyeles de las narices;
22 The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping-pins,
22 Las ropas de remuda, los mantoncillos, los velos, y los alfileres;
23 The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails.
23 Los espejos, los pañizuelos, las gasas, y los tocados.
24 And it shall come to pass, [that] instead of sweet smell there shall be an offensive odor; and instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; [and] burning instead of beauty.
24 Y será que en lugar de los perfumes aromáticos vendrá hediondez; y desgarrón en lugar de cinta; y calvez en lugar de la compostura del cabello; y en lugar de faja ceñimiento de saco; y quemadura en vez de hermosura.
25 Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war.
25 Tus varones caerán á cuchillo, y tu fuerza en la guerra.
26 And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she [being] desolate, shall sit upon the ground.
26 Sus puertas se entristecerán y enlutarán, y ella, desamparada, sentaráse en tierra.

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).
And shouldest thou enter into a church, thou goest forth, without getting anything but countless leers, and revilings, and curses, not from the beholders only, but also from the prophet. For straightway Isaiah, that hath the fullest voice of all, as soon as he hath seen thee, will cry out, "These things saith the Lord against the princely daughters of …
