Isaiah 27
1 In that day the Lord, with his great and strong and cruel sword, will send punishment on Leviathan, the quick-moving snake, and on Leviathan, the twisted snake; and he will put to death the dragon which is in the sea.
Aquel día Yavé castigará con su espada dura, grande y poderosa al cocodrilo, serpiente veloz, al Cocodrilo, serpiente tortuosa, y matará al dragón del mar.
2 In that day it will be said, A vine-garden of delight, make a song about it.
Aquel día elevarán el cántico de la viña deleitosa:
3 I, the Lord, am watching it; I will give it water at all times: I will keep it night and day, for fear that any damage comes to it.
Yo, Yavé, soy su Guardián. La riego en todo momento para que nadie la dañe. La cuido noche y día.
4 My passion is over: if the thorns were fighting against me, I would make an attack on them, and they would be burned up together.
No hay ira en Mí. ¿Quién pondrá contra Mí cardos y espinos? Me lanzaría sobre ellos y los quemaría de inmediato.
5 Or let him put himself under my power, and make peace with me.
O que él se acoja a mi amparo y haga la paz conmigo. Él puede hacer la paz conmigo.
6 In days to come Jacob will take root: Israel will put out buds and flowers; and the face of the world will be full of fruit.
Días vendrán cuando Jacob echará raíz y florecerá. Le saldrán nuevas ramas y llenarán la superficie del mundo con su fruto.
7 Is his punishment like the punishment of those who overcame him? or are his dead as great in number as those he put to the sword?
¿Él fue herido como hirió al que lo hería, o él murió como murieron sus asesinos?
8 Your anger against her has been made clear by driving her away; he has taken her away with his storm-wind in the day of his east wind.
Tú contendiste contra ella. Los enviaste lejos. Con tu fuerte viento los expulsaste el día del viento del este.
9 So by this will the sin of Jacob be covered, and this is all the fruit of taking away his punishment; when all the stones of the altar are crushed together, so that the wood pillars and the sun-images will not be put up again.
De esta manera será perdonada la iniquidad de Jacob. Éste será el precio completo de perdonar su pecado, cuando él convierta todas las piedras del altar en piedras de cal pulverizadas, y no se levanten los símbolos de Asera, ni las imágenes del sol.
10 For the strong town is without men, an unpeopled living-place; and she has become a waste land: there the young ox will take his rest, and its branches will be food for him.
Porque la ciudad fortificada será desolada. La ciudad habitada será abandonada y dejada desierta. Allí pastará el becerro. Allí tendrá su corral y acabará sus ramas.
11 When its branches are dry they will be broken off; the women will come and put fire to them: for it is a foolish people; for this cause he who made them will have no mercy on them, and he whose work they are will not have pity on them.
Cuando sus ramas se sequen serán quebradas. Mujeres llegarán a encenderlas. Porque aquél no es un pueblo de entendimiento. Por tanto, su Hacedor no tendrá misericordia de él. El que lo formó no se compadecerá.
12 And it will be in that day that the Lord will get together his grain, from the River to the stream of Egypt, and you will be got together with care, O children of Israel.
Aquel día Yavé golpeará con vara, desde el Gran Río hasta el arroyo de Egipto. Y ustedes, hijos de Israel, serán recogidos uno por uno.
13 And it will be in that day that a great horn will be sounded; and those who were wandering in the land of Assyria, and those who had been sent away into the land of Egypt, will come; and they will give worship to the Lord in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
Acontecerá también aquel día que se tocará la gran trompeta. Vendrán los que fueron dispersados en la tierra de Asiria y los dispersados en la tierra de Egipto. Se postrarán ante Yavé en la Montaña Santa, en Jerusalén.
