Jeremiah 30
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Palabra de Yavé que vino a Jeremías:
2 Thus speaketh the LORD God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book.
Yavé ʼElohim de Israel dice: Escribe en un rollo todas las Palabras que te hablé.
3 For, lo, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the LORD: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
Porque ciertamente vienen días, dice Yavé, en los cuales devolveré de la cautividad a mi pueblo Israel y Judá. Los devolveré a la tierra que di a sus antepasados, y tomarán posesión de ella.
4 And these [are] the words that the LORD spake concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
Éstas son las Palabras que Yavé habló con respecto a Israel y Judá:
5 For thus saith the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.
Porque Yavé dice: Oí un ruido de terror y espanto y no de paz.
6 Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?
Pregunten y averigüen: ¿Da a luz el varón? ¿Por qué veo a todo varón como parturienta con las manos en las caderas y todas las caras palidecieron?
7 Alas! for that day [is] great, so that none [is] like it: it [is] even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.
¡Ay, cuán grande es aquel día! No hay otro semejante a él. Tiempo de angustia para Jacob. Pero de ella será librado.
8 For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, [that] I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him:
Aquel día, dice Yavé de las huestes, Yo quebraré el yugo de su nuca y romperé sus correas. Los extranjeros no volverán a someterlo a esclavitud,
9 But they shall serve the LORD their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.
sino servirán a Yavé su ʼElohim y a David su rey, a quien Yo levantaré para ellos.
10 Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob, saith the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be in rest, and be quiet, and none shall make [him] afraid.
Tú pues, esclavo mío Jacob, no temas, dice Yavé, ni te atemorices, Israel. Porque ciertamente Yo te salvo del país remoto, a ti y a tu descendencia, de la tierra de cautividad. Jacob regresará, descansará y vivirá tranquilo, y no habrá quien lo espante.
11 For I [am] with thee, saith the LORD, to save thee: though I make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.
Porque Yo estoy contigo para salvarte, dice Yavé. Destruiré a todas las naciones en las cuales te dispersé, pero a ti no te destruiré. Te corregiré con justicia. De ninguna manera te dejaré impune.
12 For thus saith the LORD, Thy bruise [is] incurable, [and] thy wound [is] grievous.
Porque Yavé dice: Tu quebranto es incurable, y tu herida dolorosa.
13 [There is] none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up: thou hast no healing medicines.
No hay quien defienda tu causa para vendar tu herida. No hay remedios eficaces.
14 All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee not; for I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the multitude of thine iniquity; [because] thy sins were increased.
Todos tus amantes te olvidaron. Ya no te buscan, porque te herí como a un enemigo con castigo de hombre cruel, a causa de tus numerosas maldades y tus numerosos pecados.
15 Why criest thou for thine affliction? thy sorrow [is] incurable for the multitude of thine iniquity: [because] thy sins were increased, I have done these things unto thee.
¿Por qué clamas a causa de tu quebranto? Incurable es tu dolor. Porque por lo enorme de tu iniquidad y por tus muchos pecados te apliqué esto.
16 Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all thine adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity; and they that spoil thee shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon thee will I give for a prey.
Pero todos los que te devoran serán devorados. Todos tus adversarios, cada uno de ellos, irán al cautiverio. Todos los que te despojan serán despojados y todos los que te saquean serán saqueados.
17 For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an Outcast, [saying], This [is] Zion, whom no man seeketh after.
Porque Yo te restauraré la salud y sanaré tus heridas, dice Yavé, porque te llamaron la repudiada y dijeron: Ésta es Sion. Nadie la cuida.
18 Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob’s tents, and have mercy on his dwellingplaces; and the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof.
Yavé dice: En verdad, Yo restauro de la cautividad las tiendas de Jacob. De sus tiendas tendré misericordia. La ciudad será edificada sobre su colina, y el palacio estará en el lugar que le corresponde.
19 And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.
De ellos saldrán acciones de gracias y la voz de los que se regocijan. Los multiplicaré y no los disminuiré. No serán despreciados.
20 Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before me, and I will punish all that oppress them.
Sus hijos serán como antes. Su congregación se mantendrá delante de mi Presencia. Castigaré a todos sus opresores.
21 And their nobles shall be of themselves, and their governor shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who [is] this that engaged his heart to approach unto me? saith the LORD.
De ella saldrá su soberano, su caudillo. Yo lo acercaré a Mí y él se acercará a Mí. ¿Porque quién se atrevería, dice Yavé, a arriesgar su vida para acercarse a Mí?
22 And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.
Y me serán pueblo y Yo seré su ʼElohim.
23 Behold, the whirlwind of the LORD goeth forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked.
Miren: La tempestad de Yavé sale con furor, tempestad arrebatadora que cae en la cabeza de los perversos.
24 The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have done [it], and until he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it.
No se calmará el ardor de la ira de Yavé hasta que ejecute y cumpla los propósitos de su corazón. Al final de los días entenderán esto.
