Jeremiah 30
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Palabra de Yavé que vino a Jeremías:
2 "Thus speaks the LORD, the God of Israel, saying, 'Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a scroll.
Yavé ʼElohim de Israel dice: Escribe en un rollo todas las Palabras que te hablé.
3 For, look, the days come, says the LORD, that I will turn again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah,' says 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 These are the words that the LORD spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
Éstas son las Palabras que Yavé habló con respecto a Israel y Judá:
5 For thus says 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 now, and see whether a man does travail with child: why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, 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 It shall come to pass in that day," says the LORD of hosts, "that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds; and strangers shall no more make him their bondservant;
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 to them.
sino servirán a Yavé su ʼElohim y a David su rey, a quien Yo levantaré para ellos.
10 Therefore do not be afraid, O Jacob my servant, says the LORD; neither be dismayed, Israel: for, look, I will save you from afar, and your descendants from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, 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 you, says the LORD, to save you: for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you 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 says the LORD, "Your hurt is incurable, and your wound grievous.
Porque Yavé dice: Tu quebranto es incurable, y tu herida dolorosa.
13 There is none to plead your cause, that you may be bound up: you have no healing medicines.
No hay quien defienda tu causa para vendar tu herida. No hay remedios eficaces.
14 All your lovers have forgotten you; they do not seek you: for I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the greatness of your iniquity, because your 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 do you cry for your hurt? Your pain is incurable: for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased, I have done these things to you.
¿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 those who devour you shall be devoured; and all your adversaries, everyone of them, shall go into captivity; and those who plunder you shall be plundered, and all who prey on you I will make 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 to you, and I will heal you of your wounds," says the LORD; "because they have called you an outcast, saying, 'It is Zion, whom no man seeks 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 says the LORD: "Look, I will turn again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have compassion on his dwelling places; and the city shall be built on its own hill, and the palace shall be inhabited in its own way.
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 Out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of those who 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 before, and their congregation shall be established before me; and I will punish all who oppress them.
Sus hijos serán como antes. Su congregación se mantendrá delante de mi Presencia. Castigaré a todos sus opresores.
21 Their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from their midst; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach to me: for who is he who has had boldness to approach to me? says 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 You shall be my people, and I will be your God.
Y me serán pueblo y Yo seré su ʼElohim.
23 Look, the storm of the LORD, his wrath, has gone forth, a sweeping storm: it shall burst on 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 will not return, until he has executed, and until he has performed the intentions of his heart. In the latter days you will understand 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.
