Ezekiel 28
1 And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
La Palabra de Yavé vino a mí:
2 “Son of man, tell the ruler of Tyre that this is what the Lord GOD says: Your heart is proud, and you have said, ‘I am a god; I sit in the seat of gods in the heart of the sea.’ Yet you are a man and not a god, though you have regarded your heart as that of a god.
Hijo de hombre, dí al rey de Tiro: ʼAdonay Yavé dice: Porque se enalteció tu corazón y dijiste: Yo soy ʼEL y estoy sentado en el trono de ʼElohim en medio de los mares. Pero tú eres hombre y no ʼEL. Aunque pusiste tu corazón como el corazón de ʼElohim,
3 Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is hidden from you!
ciertamente eres más sabio que Daniel, y ningún misterio te es oculto.
4 By your wisdom and understanding you have gained your wealth and amassed gold and silver for your treasuries.
Adquiriste riquezas con tu habilidad e inteligencia. Acumulaste oro y plata en tus tesoros
5 By your great skill in trading you have increased your wealth, but your heart has grown proud because of it.
con tu gran sabiduría. Por tu comercio, aumentaste tus riquezas, y tu corazón está enaltecido a causa de éstas.
6 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Because you regard your heart as the heart of a god,
Por tanto ʼAdonay Yavé dice: Por cuanto comparaste tu corazón con el corazón de ʼElohim,
7 behold, I will bring foreigners against you, the most ruthless of nations. They will draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom and will defile your splendor.
ciertamente Yo traigo contra ti extranjeros, los más terribles de las naciones, que desenvainarán sus espadas contra la hermosura de tu sabiduría y contaminarán tu esplendor.
8 They will bring you down to the Pit, and you will die a violent death in the heart of the seas.
Te harán descender al sepulcro. Morirás con la muerte de los traspasados en medio de los mares.
9 Will you still say, ‘I am a god,’ in the presence of those who slay you? You will be only a man, not a god, in the hands of those who wound you.
¿Le dirás al que te mata: Yo soy ʼElohim, aunque eres hombre en manos de tu asesino y no ʼElohim?
10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hands of foreigners. For I have spoken,
Morirás con la muerte de incircuncisos por mano de extranjeros, porque Yo hablé, dice ʼAdonay Yavé.
11 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
La Palabra de Yavé vino a mí:
12 “Son of man, take up a lament for the king of Tyre and tell him that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
Hijo de hombre, haz lamentación sobre el rey de Tiro: ʼAdonay Yavé dice: ¡Tú eras el sello de la perfección, lleno de sabiduría, perfecto en hermosura!
13 You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every kind of precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz, and diamond, beryl, onyx, and jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and emerald. Your mountings and settings were crafted in gold, prepared on the day of your creation.
Estuviste en Edén, el huerto de ʼElohim. Tu ropa era de toda piedra preciosa: de rubí, topacio, jaspe, crisólito, berilo, ónice, zafiro, diamante, esmeralda y oro. Los primores de tus panderos y flautas estuvieron preparados para ti el día de tu creación.
14 You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for I had ordained you. You were on the holy mountain of God; you walked among the fiery stones.
Tú fuiste el querubín ungido, protector. Yo te puse allí en la Santa Montaña de ʼElohim. Te paseabas en medio de las piedras de fuego.
15 From the day you were created you were blameless in your ways— until wickedness was found in you.
Perfecto eras en todos tus caminos desde el día cuando fuiste creado hasta cuando se halló en ti injusticia.
16 By the vastness of your trade, you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mountain of God, and I banished you, O guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones.
A causa de la multitud de tus contrataciones te llenaste de iniquidad y pecaste. Por tanto Yo te eché de la Montaña de ʼElohim, y te saqué de en medio de las piedras de fuego, oh querubín protector.
17 Your heart grew proud of your beauty; you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor; so I cast you to the earth; I made you a spectacle before kings.
Se enalteció tu corazón a causa de tu hermosura. Corrompiste tu sabiduría por tu esplendor. Yo te echo a la tierra. Te pondré como espectáculo delante de los reyes.
18 By the multitude of your iniquities and the dishonesty of your trading you have profaned your sanctuaries. So I made fire come from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the eyes of all who saw you.
Profanaste tu santuario con la multitud de tus iniquidades y la deshonestidad de tus contrataciones. Yo, pues, encendí fuego dentro de ti para que te consuma. Te reduzco a ceniza sobre la tierra ante los ojos de todos los que te observan.
19 All the nations who know you are appalled over you. You have come to a horrible end and will be no more.’”
Todos los que te conocen entre los pueblos están asombrados con respecto a ti. Eres objeto de espanto. Para siempre dejarás de ser.
20 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
La Palabra de Yavé vino a mí:
21 “Son of man, set your face against Sidon and prophesy against her.
Hijo de hombre, levanta tu rostro hacia Sidón y profetiza contra ella:
22 And you are to declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against you, O Sidon, and I will be glorified within you. They will know that I am the LORD when I execute judgments against her and demonstrate My holiness through her.
ʼAdonay Yavé dice: Oh Sidón, ciertamente Yo estoy contra ti. Seré glorificado en ti. Cuando ejecute juicios y manifieste mi santidad en ella, sabrán que Yo soy Yavé.
23 I will send a plague against her and shed blood in her streets; the slain will fall within her, while the sword is against her on every side. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
Enviaré pestilencia y sangre a sus calles. Los muertos a espada caerán por todos lados. Entonces sabrán que Yo soy Yavé.
24 For the people of Israel will no longer face a pricking brier or a painful thorn from all around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord GOD.’
Nunca más será espina desgarrante para la Casa de Israel, ni aguijón que cause dolor en medio de todos los que la rodean y la desprecian. Y sabrán que Yo soy Yavé.
25 This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they have been scattered, I will show Myself holy among them in the sight of the nations. Then they will dwell in their own land, which I have given to My servant Jacob.
ʼAdonay Yavé dice: Cuando Yo reúna a la Casa de Israel de los pueblos entre los cuales está esparcida, y me santifique en ellos a la vista de las naciones, habitarán en su tierra que di a mi esclavo Jacob.
26 And there they will dwell securely, build houses, and plant vineyards. They will dwell securely when I execute judgments against all those around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the LORD their God.’”
Vivirán confiadamente en ella. Edificarán casas, plantarán viñas y vivirán con seguridad cuando Yo ejecute juicios contra todos aquellos que los despojan en sus alrededores. Y sabrán que Yo, Yavé, soy su ʼElohim.
