Esias 43
1 And now thus says the Lord God that made you, O Jacob, and formed you, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed you, I have called you [by] your name; you are mine.
Y ahora, así dice el SEÑOR Creador tuyo, oh Jacob, y Formador tuyo, oh Israel: No temas, porque yo te redimí; yo te puse nombre, mío eres tú.
2 And if you pass through water, I am with you; and the rivers shall not overflow you: and if you go through fire, you shall not be burned; the flame shall not burn you.
Cuando pasares por las aguas, yo seré contigo; y en los ríos, no te anegarán. Cuando pasares por el fuego, no te quemarás, ni la llama arderá en ti.
3 For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, that saves you: I have made Egypt and Ethiopia your ransom, and [given] Soene for you.
Porque yo soy el SEÑOR, Dios tuyo, el Santo de Israel, guardador tuyo. A Egipto he dado por tu rescate, a Etiopía y a Seba por ti.
4 Since you became precious in my sight, you have become glorious, and I have loved you: and I will give men for you, and princes for your life.
Porque en mis ojos fuiste de gran estima, fuiste digno de honra, y yo te amé.
5 Fear not; for I am with you: I will bring your seed from the east, and will gather you from the west.
No temas, porque yo soy contigo; del oriente traeré tu generación, y del occidente te recogeré.
6 I will say to the north, Bring; and to the south, Keep not back; bring my sons from the [land] afar off, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
Diré al aquilón: Da acá, y al mediodía: No detengas. Trae de lejos mis hijos, y mis hijas de los términos de la tierra,
7 [even] all who are called by my name: for I have prepared him for my glory, and I have formed him, and have made him:
Todos los llamados de mi nombre; y para gloria mía los críe; los formé y los hice:
8 and I have brought forth the blind people; for [their] eyes are alike blind, and they that have ears are deaf.
Sacad al pueblo ciego que tiene ojos, y a los sordos que tienen oídos.
9 All the nations are gathered together, and princes shall be gathered out of them: who will declare these things? or who will declare to you things from the beginning? let them bring forth their witnesses, and be justified; and let them hear, and declare the truth.
Congréguense a una todos los gentiles, y júntense todos los pueblos. ¿Quién de ellos hay, que nos dé nuevas de esto, y que nos haga oír las cosas primeras? Presenten sus testigos, y serán sentenciados por justos; oigan, y digan: Verdad.
10 Be you my witnesses, and I [too am] a witness, says the Lord God, and my servant whom I have chosen: that you may know, and believe, and understand that I am [he]: before me there was no other God, and after me there shall be none.
Vosotros sois mis testigos, dice el SEÑOR, y mi siervo que yo escogí, para que me conozcáis y creáis, y entendáis, que yo mismo soy; antes de mí no fue formado Dios, ni lo será después de mí.
11 I am God; and beside me there is no Saviour.
Yo, yo soy el SEÑOR; y fuera de mí no hay quien salve.
12 I have declared, and have saved; I have reproached, and there was no strange [god] among you: you are my witnesses, and I am the Lord God,
Yo anuncié, y salvé, e hice oír, y no hubo entre vosotros extraño. Vosotros pues sois mis testigos, dice el SEÑOR, que yo soy Dios.
13 even from the beginning; and there is none that can deliver out of my hands: I will work, and who shall turn it back?
Aun antes que hubiera día, yo era; y no hay quien de mi mano escape; si yo hiciere, ¿quién lo estorbará?
14 Thus says the Lord God that redeems you, the Holy One of Israel; for your sakes I will send to Babylon, and I will stir up all that flee, and the Chaldeans shall be bound in ships.
Así dice el SEÑOR, Redentor vuestro, el Santo de Israel: Por vosotros envié a Babilonia, e hice descender fugitivos a todos ellos; y clamor de caldeos en las naves.
15 I am the Lord God, your Holy One, who have appointed for Israel your king.
Yo soy el SEÑOR, Santo vuestro, Criador de Israel, vuestro Rey.
16 Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty water;
Así dice el SEÑOR, el que da camino en el mar, y senda en las aguas impetuosas;
17 who brought forth chariots and horse, and a mighty multitude: but they have lain down, and shall not rise: they are extinct, as quenched flax.
cuando él saca, carro, y caballo, ejército, y fuerza caen juntamente, para no levantarse; quedan apagados, como pábilo quedan apagados.
18 Remember you not the former things, and consider not the ancient things.
No os acordéis de las cosas pasadas, ni traigáis a memoria las cosas antiguas.
19 Behold, I [will] do new things, which shall presently spring forth, and you shall know them: and I will make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land.
He aquí que yo hago cosa nueva; presto saldrá a luz; ¿no la conoceréis? Otra vez pondré camino en el desierto, y ríos en la soledad.
20 the beasts of the field shall bless me, the owls and young ostriches; for I have given water in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land, to give drink to my chosen race,
La bestia del campo me honrará, los dragones, y los pollos del avestruz; porque daré aguas en el desierto, ríos en la soledad, para que beba mi pueblo, mi escogido.
21 my people whom I have preserved to tell forth my praises.
Este pueblo crié para mí; mis alabanzas contará.
22 I have not now called you, O Jacob; neither have I made you weary, O Israel.
Y no me invocaste a mí, oh Jacob, antes de mí te cansaste, oh Israel.
23 You have not brought me the sheep of your whole burnt offering; neither have you glorified me with your sacrifices. I have not caused you to serve with sacrifices, neither have I wearied you with frankincense.
No me trajiste a mí los animales de tus holocaustos, ni a mí me honraste con tus sacrificios; no te hice servir con presente, ni te hice fatigar con perfume.
24 Neither have you purchased for me victims for silver, neither have I desired the fat of your sacrifices: but you did stand before me in your sins, and in your iniquities.
No compraste para mí caña aromática por dinero, ni me saciaste con la grosura de tus sacrificios; antes me hiciste servir en tus pecados, y en tus maldades me hiciste fatigar.
25 I, [even] I, am he that blots out your transgressions for mine own sake, and your sins; and I will not remember [them].
Yo, yo soy el que arraigo tus rebeliones por amor de mí; y no me acordaré de tus pecados.
26 But do you remember, and let us plead [together]: do you first confess your transgressions, that you may be justified.
Hazme acordar, entremos en juicio juntamente; cuenta tú para abonarte.
27 Your fathers first, and your princes have transgressed against me.
Tu primer padre pecó, y tus enseñadores prevaricaron contra mí.
28 And the princes have defiled my sanctuaries: so I gave Jacob [to enemies] to destroy, and Israel to reproach.
Por tanto, yo profané los príncipes del Santuario, y puse por anatema a Jacob, y a Israel por vergüenza.
