Ezekiel 23
1 Yahweh said to me,
La palabra del Señor vino de nuevo a mí, diciendo:
2 “You human, [listen to this parable about Jerusalem and Samaria]. Once there were two women, daughters of the same mother.
Hijo de hombre, había dos mujeres, hijas de la misma madre:
3 They lived in Egypt. And from the time that they were young women, they became prostitutes. In that land, [men] fondled their breasts and caressed their bosoms [DOU].
Estaban actuando como mujeres prostitutas en Egipto; cuando eran jóvenes, se prostituyeron; allí sus pechos fueron estrujados, sus senos virginales fueron acariciados.
4 The older [sister] was Oholah, and her [younger] sister was Oholibah. [It was as though] they became my [wives. Later] they gave birth to sons and daughters. Oholah represents Samaria, and Oholibah represents Jerusalem.
Sus nombres eran Ahola, la mayor, y Aholiba, su hermana; las cuales eran mías, y dieron a luz hijos e hijas. En cuanto a sus nombres, Samaria es Ahola, y Jerusalén, Aholiba.
5 Oholah acted like a prostitute while she was [still] my wife. She desired to have sex with those she loved—soldiers from Assyria.
Y Ahola me fue infiel; estaba llena de deseo por sus amantes, incluso por los asirios, sus vecinos,
6 [Some of them] were army officers and commanders. They wore [beautiful] blue [uniforms. They were] all handsome young men. Some of them rode horses.
Vestidos de azul, capitanes y gobernantes, todos ellos hombres jóvenes apuestos, jinetes sentados sobre caballos.
7 She acted like a prostitute toward all the important Assyrian officials, and became unacceptable to me by worshiping all the idols of the men she wanted to have sex with.
Y se enamoró con todos ellos los hombres más nobles de Asiria, y se hizo impura con las imágenes adorandolos.
8 When she was a young woman in Egypt, she started being a prostitute, and [young] men caressed her breasts and had sex with her; and when she became older, she did not quit acting like a prostitute.
Y no ha renunciado a sus prostituciones desde el tiempo en que estuvo en Egipto; porque cuando ella era joven, eran sus amantes, y por ellos sus pechos jóvenes fueron apretados, y dejaron caer sobre ella su deseo inmundo.
9 So I allowed the Assyrian soldiers, whom she wanted to have sex with, to capture her.
Por esta causa la entregué en manos de sus amantes, en manos de los asirios a quienes su deseo estaba fijado.
10 They stripped all her clothes off her. They took away her sons and daughters. And then they killed her with a sword. [Other] women started talking about what had happened to her, about how she had been punished.
Por ellos se descubrió su vergüenza; tomaron a sus hijos e hijas y la mataron a espada: y se convirtió en una causa de asombro para las mujeres; porque le dieron el castigo que era correcto.
11 [younger] sister Oholibah saw those [that happened to Oholah], but she was a prostitute, and she desired to have sex with men more than [older] sister had desired.
Y su hermana Aholiba vio esto, pero su deseo era aún más incuestionable, y su prostitución era peor que el de su hermana.
12 Oholibah [also] wanted to have sex with the Assyrian soldiers. [Some of them were] army officers and commanders. [They all] wore beautiful blue uniforms. They were all handsome young men. [Some of] them rode horses.
Estaba llena de deseo por los asirios, capitanes y gobernantes, sus vecinos, vestidos de azul, jinetes que iban a caballo, todos ellos hombres jóvenes apuestos.
13 I saw what she did that caused her to became unacceptable to me, just like [older] sister.
Y vi que se había vuelto impura; las dos fueron de la misma manera.
14 But she did [even] worse things. She saw drawings of men from Babylonia on the walls, painted in red.
Y su prostitución empeoró; porque vio a los hombres representados en una pared, fotos de los Caldeos pintados en rojo brillante,
15 The [in the drawings] had belts around their waists and long turbans on their heads. They all resembled officers from Babylonia [DOU] [who rode in chariots].
Con cintos alrededor de sus cuerpos y con turbantes en sus cabezas, todos ellos luciendo como gobernantes, como los babilonios, la tierra de cuyo nacimiento es Caldea.
16 As soon as she saw those drawings, she wanted to have sex with those men, and she sent messages to them in Babylonia.
Y cuando los vio, se llenó de deseo por ellos, y les envió mensajeros a Caldea.
17 Then the soldiers from Babylonia came to her, they lay in bed with her, and they had sex with her. Then she became disgusted with them and turned away from them.
Y los babilonios se acercaron a ella, en el lecho de amor, y la hicieron inmunda con su prostitución, y ella se volvió inmunda con ellos, y su alma se hastío de ellos.
18 But when she continued to openly/boldly act like a prostitute [DOU], I became disgusted with her, and I rejected her like I had rejected [older] sister.
Entonces se vio claramente sus prostituciones se descubrió su desnudez; entonces mi alma se apartó de ella como me había apartado de su hermana.
19 But she became even more immoral, as she remembered when she was a young woman who was a prostitute in Egypt.
Pero aún así siguió empeorando su prostitución, teniendo en cuenta los primeros días en que se había prostituido en la tierra de Egipto.
20 There she wanted to have sex with those who loved her, whose genitals were [very long], like [SIM] those of donkeys, and whose sexual emissions were huge, [like] those of horses.
Y ella estaba llena de deseo por sus amantes, cuya carne es como la carne de asnos y cuyo flujo es como el flujo de los caballos.
21 So she desired to be immoral like she was when she was young, when men in Egypt caressed her bosom and fondled her breasts.”
Y recordó las prostituciones de sus primeros años, cuando sus pechos jóvenes fueron acariciados por los egipcios.
22 “[represents you people of Jerusalem]. Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord say: ‘I will cause those [soldiers] who loved you but whom you turned away from because you became disgusted with them, to be angry with you. I will cause them to come and attack you from every side—
Por esta causa, oh Aholiba, esto es lo que el Señor ha dicho: Mira, haré que tus amantes se acerquen a ti, incluso aquellos de quienes tu alma se ha apartado con disgusto; y los haré subir contra ti por todos lados;
23 soldiers from Babylon and all the other places in Babylonia, [their allies] from Pekod and Shoa and [regions], and all the army of Assyria. [Yes], all of them are handsome young men, army officers and commanders, officers who ride in chariots, all riding on horses.
Los babilonios y todos los caldeos, Pecod y Soa y Coa, y todos los asirios con ellos; jóvenes codiciables, capitanes y gobernantes todos, y jefes, sus vecinos, todos a caballo.
24 Their huge army will attack you with weapons, riding in chariots and pulling wagons [that will carry their army supplies]. They will surround you, carrying large and small shields, and wearing helmets. I will allow them to capture you and punish you in the way that they [always] [their enemies].
Y vendrán contra ti desde el norte a caballo, con carruajes de guerra y una gran banda de pueblos; Se pondrán en orden contra ti con coraza, escudos y casco; les daré el derecho de juzgarte, y ellos tomarán su decisión en tu contra como les parezca correcto.
25 Because I am very angry with you, I will cause them to act [very] furiously toward you. They will cut off your noses and your ears. Then, those who are still alive, they will kill with their swords. They will take away your sons and daughters, and a fire will burn up those who remain alive.
Y mi celo estará contra ti, y obraran con furor contigo; te quitarán la nariz y las orejas, y el resto de ustedes será llevado a la espada; se llevarán a tus hijos e hijas, y el resto de ti se quemará en el fuego.
26 They will strip off your clothes and your fine jewelry and take them away.
Y te quitarán toda tu ropa y te quitarán los adornos.
27 In that way, I will stop all the immoral behavior that began when you became a prostitute in Egypt. You will no longer desire to do those things, or think [what you did in] Egypt.’
Así que pondré fin a tus maldades y tus prostituciones que vino de la tierra de Egipto; y tus ojos nunca volverán a ser vistos por ellos, y no tendrás más memoria de Egipto.
28 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord say: ‘I am about to allow those whom you hate, those you became disgusted with and turned away from, to capture you.
Porque esto es lo que ha dicho el Señor: Mira, te entregaré en manos de aquellos que odiaste, en manos de aquellos de quienes tu alma se ha hastiado.
29 They will be cruel and take away everything that you have worked hard to acquire. They will leave you completely naked [DOU], and everyone will see that you truly are a prostitute.
Y te llevarán con odio, y te quitarán todo el fruto de tu trabajo, y te dejarán sin ropa y desnuda; y la vergüenza de tu prostitución será descubierta, tus malvados planes y tus fornicaciones.
30 It is because of what you have done that you will be punished like that; you have been an immoral prostitute; you have had sex with men of other nations, and you have caused yourselves to become unacceptable to me [worshiping] their idols.
Te harán estas cosas porque te has prostituido, persiguiendo a las naciones y se han vuelto impuras con sus imágenes.
31 You have behaved [the people of Samaria, who are like] your [older] sister. So I will cause you to be punished [MET] like they were punished.’
Te has metido en el camino de tu hermana; y yo daré su copa en tu mano.
32 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘[You will suffer like people suffer when they drink from a cup a lot of strong alcoholic drink]: [It will be as though] you will drink from the cup that the people of Samaria drank from; a big and tall cup. Because of your drinking what is in that cup, many people will scorn you and make fun of you because there is a lot of liquid in that cup.
Esto es lo que el Señor ha dicho: tomarás un trago de la copa de tu hermana, que es profunda y amplia; se reirán y te mirarán con desprecio, porque es de gran capacidad.
33 When you become very drunk, you will become very sad, [drinking what is in] that cup [MTY] will cause you to become ruined and deserted, like what happened [MET] to [the people of] Samaria, [who are like] [MET] your sister.
Borracha y llena de tristeza, con la copa de ruina y destrucción, de tu hermana Samaria.
34 You will drink all the liquid that is in that cup; then you will break that cup into pieces [use those pieces to] gash/cut your [because you will be very sad].’ [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.
Y después de beberlo y agotarlo, tomarás las últimas gotas hasta el final, arrancándote los senos; porque lo he dicho, dice el Señor Dios.
35 Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘Because you have forgotten me and rejected me [IDM], you must be punished for your immoral behavior and for [like] a prostitute.’”
Así que esto es lo que ha dicho el Señor Dios: porque no me has guardado en tu memoria, y porque me has dado la espalda, incluso serás castigada por tus lujurias y por tus prostituciones.
36 Yahweh said to me, “You human, you must [RHQ] [the people of those two cities represented by] Oholah and Oholibah. You must remind them of their detestable behavior:
Entonces el Señor me dijo: Hijo de hombre, ¿serás tú el juez de Ahola y Aholiba? Entonces déjales en claro las cosas repugnantes que han hecho.
37 [It is as though the people of those cities] have committed adultery and have murdered [MTY] people. They have been unfaithful to me by [worshiping] idols. They have even sacrificed their own children, who belonged to me, to be food for their idols.
Porque han sido infieles a mí, y la sangre está en sus manos, y con sus imágenes han cometido adulterio; y más que esto, hizo que sus hijos, que tuvieron conmigo, los atravesaran por el fuego para quemarlos.
38 They have done [disgraceful things]: They have caused my temple to be an unacceptable place for worship, and have not respected the Sabbath days.
Además, esto es lo que ella me ha hecho: en el mismo día ha contaminado mi lugar santo y ha profanado mis sábados.
39 On the same day that they sacrificed their children to their idols, they entered my temple, which caused it to be an unacceptable place for worshiping me.
Porque cuando ella hizo una ofrenda de sus hijos a sus imágenes, vino a mi Santuario el mismo día, para profanarlo; Mira, esto es lo que ella ha hecho dentro de mi casa.
40 They sent messages to men [in countries] far away. And when those men arrived, [the women of those two cities] bathed themselves for them, painted their eyebrows, and put on jewelry.
Y hasta enviaron mensajeros para traer hombres de muy lejos, y vinieron; por quienes ellas se lavaron el cuerpo, se pintaron los ojos y se pusieron hermosas con los ornamentos.
41 They sat on a beautiful couch, with a table in front of it on which they had put incense and [olive] oil that belonged to me.
Y se sentó en un diván lujoso, con una mesa puesta delante de ella, sobre la cual puso mi incienso mi aceite.
42 Soon there was a noisy crowd around them. Among the crowd there were men from Sheba who had come from the [of Arabia]. They put bracelets on the arms of the [two] sisters and put beautiful crowns on their heads.
Y las voces de la multitud en holganza; eran hombres borrachos venidos del desierto con la gente común y le pusieron joyas en las manos y hermosas coronas en la cabeza de las mujeres.
43 Then I said about the woman who had become exhausted by her having sex with many men, ‘Now allow those men to act toward her as though she is a prostitute, because that is all that she is.’
Entonces dije: acerca de aquella que estaba desgastada en adulterios; ahora ella continuará con sus fornicaciones?
44 So they had sex [EUP] with those two women, Oholah and Oholibah, like men have sex with prostitutes.
Y se llegaron a ella, como los hombres a una mujer prostituta, y entraron a Ahola y Aholiba, las mujeres depravadas.
45 But righteous men will condemn them to be punished, like women who commit adultery and who murder others are punished, because those women commit adultery and they murder [MTY] others.
Y los hombres rectos serán sus jueces, juzgándolas como adúlteras y como mujeres asesinas; porque ellas son adúlteras y la sangre está en sus manos.
46 So this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: Bring a mob to attack Samaria and Jerusalem, and allow that mob to cause the people of those cities to be terrified, and to rob them.
Porque esto es lo que el Señor Dios ha dicho: Haré que una gran multitud de gente se junte contra ella, y le enviaré espanto y les robaran todo.
47 The mob will throw stones at [to kill them]; they will cut them into pieces with their swords, they will kill their sons and daughters, and burn down their houses.
Y la multitud, después de apedrearla, le pondrán fin con sus espadas; matarán a sus hijos e hijas y quemarán con fuego su casa.
48 In that way I will cause them to stop their immoral behavior. It will warn other women to not imitate/do what you people of Jerusalem are doing.
Y pondré fin al mal en toda la tierra, enseñando a todas las mujeres a no hacer lo que ustedes han hecho.
49 [people of Jerusalem] will be punished for your immoral behavior and for your worshiping idols. Then you will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Y ellos te recompensarán tus depravaciones, cargarán con el castigo del pecado de haber adorado a sus ídolos. Y sabrán que yo soy el Señor Dios.
