Ezekiel 32
1 Almost twelve years [after we had been taken to Babylonia], on the first day of the twelfth month [of that year], Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
El año duodécimo, el día primero del duodécimo mes, me fue dirigida la palabra de Yahvé, que dijo:
2 “You human, sing a sad/funeral song about the king of Egypt. Sing this to him: ‘You [think that you] [IRO] are like [SIM] a lion among the nations; or like [SIM] a monster/crocodile in the river thrashing around in the water, churning/stirring up the water with your feet and causing the water to become muddy.
“Hijo de hombre, entona una elegía sobre el Faraón, rey de Egipto y dile: Eras cual leoncillo entre las gentes, eras como un cocodrilo en las aguas; te revolvías en tus ríos, enturbiando las aguas con tus pies y ensuciando sus corrientes.
3 But this is what Yahweh the Lord says: “I will send many people to throw my net over you, and they will haul/drag you up [onto the land] in my net.
Así dice Yahvé, el Señor: Tenderé sobre ti mi red en medio de un concurso de muchos pueblos, que te sacarán con mi red.
4 They will throw you into a field [DOU] [to die]; I will allow the birds to sit on you, and all the wild animals will eat the flesh of your corpse until their stomachs are full.
Te arrojaré en tierra te extenderé sobre el campo; haré posar sobre ti todas las aves del cielo, y saciaré de ti a las bestias de toda la tierra.
5 I will cause them to scatter your flesh on the hills and fill the valleys with your bones.
Pondré tus carnes sobre los montes y llenaré de tu carroña los valles.
6 I will cause them to fill the land with your blood, all the way to the mountains, and the ravines will be filled with your flesh.
Con tu sangre regaré tu fétida tierra, hasta la altura de las montañas; y se llenarán de ti las hondonadas.
7 When I get rid of you, I will cover the sky and not allow the stars to shine. I will put a dark cloud in front of the sun, and the moon will not shine.
Al extinguirte cubriré el cielo y oscureceré sus estrellas; taparé el sol con una nube y la luna ya no despedirá su luz.
8 I will cause the stars in the sky to be dark, and there will be darkness over your entire land; [that will surely happen because] I, Yahweh the Lord, have said it.
A causa de ti vestiré de luto a todos los luminares que brillan en el cielo, y cubriré de tinieblas tu tierra, dice Yahvé, el Señor.
9 And when the people of many nations hear about your being destroyed, many of them will be afraid/worried— people living in countries that you have never known about.
Afligiré el corazón de muchos pueblos, cuando haga llegar (la noticia de) tu ruina a las naciones, a países que no conocías.
10 I will cause many people to be appalled because of [what has happened to] you, and their kings will be horrified and shudder/shake because of your [being destroyed], when I swing my sword in front of them. At the time that you will be destroyed, all of them will tremble, fearing that they also will be killed.”
Haré que por ti queden atónitos numerosos pueblos, y por ti se estremecerán de terror sus reyes, cuando Yo esgrima ante ellos mi espada; temblarán sin cesar, cada cual por su vida, en el día de tu caída.
11 This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “The swords of [the army of] the King of Babylon will strike you.
Porque así dice Yahvé, el Señor: Vendrá sobre ti la espada del rey de Babilonia.
12 I will cause very many of your people to be killed by the swords of mighty soldiers [from Babylonia], who are more ruthless/cruel than the soldiers of all other nations. They will cause the people of Egypt to quit being proud, because very many [HYP] of their people will be killed.
Abatiré tu multitud con la espada de los valientes; son todos ellos los más feroces de los pueblos; destruirán el orgullo de Egipto, y será deshecha toda su multitud.
13 I will destroy all the cattle in Egypt that (graze/eat grass) alongside the streams. As a result, the water in those streams will never again become muddy because of people and cattle walking in them.
Exterrninaré todas sus bestias junto a las copiosas aguas, y no las enturbiará más pie de hombre, ni pezuña de bestia.
14 Then I will allow the streams in Egypt to become calm again and flow [as smoothly] [SIM] as olive oil flows.
Entonces volveré limpias sus aguas; y haré correr sus ríos como aceite, dice Yahvé, el Señor.
15 When I cause Egypt to become empty/desolate and strip off everything that grows on the land, and when I get rid of all the people who live there, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”’
Cuando Yo convierta la tierra de Egipto en desierto, despojando el país de cuanto contiene, e hiera a todos sus habitantes, conocerán que Yo soy Yahvé.
16 That sad song about Egypt will also be sung by the people. Women of many nations will sing it. They will chant it about Egypt and all its people; [that will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said that it would happen.”
Esta es la elegía que se cantará. La entonarán las hijas de las naciones; la cantarán sobre Egipto y toda su multitud”, dice Yahvé, el Señor.
17 On the fifteenth day of that same month, Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
El año duodécimo, el quince del mes, me fue dirigida la palabra de Yahvé, que dijo:
18 “You human, wail about the many people of Egypt, because I will send them to the place under the earth, where they and people of other mighty nations will be. I will send them there, along with others, down to the place where the dead are.
“Hijo de hombre, compón un canto lúgubre sobre la multitud de Egipto, y arrójala, a ella y a las hijas de las naciones poderosas, a las profundidades de la tierra, con los que bajan a la fosa.
19 Say to them, ‘You people of [APO] Egypt, [you think that] [IRO, RHQ] you are more beautiful than the people of other nations. But you also will descend to the place where the godless dead people are.
¿A quién superas (ahora) en hermosura? ¡Baja y acuéstate entre los incircuncisos!
20 [Your enemies] will pull out their swords and kill many of you. A huge number of the people of Egypt who remain will be dragged away.
Caerán ellos en medio de muertos a espada; entregada será (Egipto) al cuchillo; ¡sacadla fuera, con todas sus multitudes!
21 In the place where the dead people are, mighty leaders [of other countries] will [make fun of the people of Egypt] and say, “They have come here to lie with us godless people who were killed by our enemies’ swords!”’ (Sheol h7585)
En medio del scheol le dirigirán la palabra los más poderosos de los potentados, así como a sus auxiliadores (diciendo): «Han descendido, yacen los incircuncisos, traspasados por la espada». (Sheol h7585)
22 [The corpses of the people of] Assyria will be there. They will be surrounded by [corpses of] soldiers who were killed by [their enemies’] swords.
Allí se halla Asur, con toda su gente, en torno suyo están sus sepulcros; todos yacen traspasados, caídos a cuchillo, en sepulcros situados en lo más hondo de la fosa.
23 The people’s graves are there in the deep pit, and [corpses of soldiers of] their army lie around their graves. Corpses of all those who had caused many others in other places to be terrified also will be there, having been killed by swords.
Alrededor de su sepulcro está toda su gente, todos ellos traspasados, caídos a cuchillo, los que fueron el terror de la tierra de los vivientes.
24 A great number of the people of Elam will be there. They also were killed by [their enemies’] swords. They had caused people in many places [HYP] to be terrified. At that time they will lie there in that deep pit below the earth, and they, along with the others who have gone there, will be disgraced.
Allí está Elam, con toda su multitud en torno a su sepulcro; todos ellos traspasados, caídos a cuchillo, que descendieron incircuncisos a las profundidades de la tierra. Los que fueron el terror de la tierra de los vivientes, llevan su ignominia con los bajados a la fosa.
25 They will lie there among others who were slaughtered, surrounded by the graves of a huge crowd of other people. While they were alive, they caused people of other nations to be terrified; but they were godless, and now, having been killed by [their enemies] swords, they will lie with others in that deep pit, disgraced, all of them avoiding each other.
En medio de los traspasados, colocaron su lecho para él y todo su pueblo, en torno a sus sepulcros; todos ellos incircuncisos, pasados a cuchillo. Esparcieron el terror en la tierra de los vivientes; mas llevan (ahora) su ignominia con los bajados a la fosa; yacen en medio de los muertos.
26 [Corpses of] soldiers of Meshech and Tubal will be there, surrounded by the graves of a huge crowd of their people. They were all godless people who were killed by swords because while they were alive, they also caused people in many places [HYP] to be terrified.
Allí está Mósoc, Tubal y toda su gente, en torno a sus sepulcros, todos ellos incircuncisos, pasados a cuchillo, por haber sido el terror de la tierra de los vivientes.
27 They will surely [RHQ] not be buried honorably like the soldiers who have died, whose shields were buried with their corpses, whose swords were placed on their skulls in the graves. While those godless people were alive, they had caused many people in the land to be terrified, so they were punished for their sins. (Sheol h7585)
Y no yacen entre los héroes de los incircuncisos, que cayeron y descendieron al scheol con sus armas de guerra, la espada debajo de sus cabezas, y el escudo sobre sus huesos, por haber sido el terror de los fuertes en la tierra de los vivientes. (Sheol h7585)
28 You king of Egypt, you also be killed and will lie there with other godless people who have been killed by [their enemies’] swords.
Así también tú serás quebrantado con los incircuncisos; y yacerás con los muertos a espada.
29 People of the Edom people-group will be there, along with their kings and leaders. They were powerful, but they will [be killed and] lie there in the place where the other dead people are. They will lie there in that deep pit, with the other godless people.
Allí está Edom, sus reyes y todos sus príncipes, que a pesar de sus hazañas han sido puestos entre los muertos a cuchillo, yacen entre los incircuncisos, entre los que descendieron a la fosa.
30 All the rulers of countries north [of Israel], including people from Sidon, will be there. Because of their power, they caused people to be terrified, but they will lie there. They were godless, and they will lie there along with others who were killed by [their enemies’] swords. They, along with everyone else who descends into that deep pit, will be disgraced.
Allí están los príncipes del Norte, todos ellos y todos los sidonios; bajaron con los traspasados por la espada, a pesar del terror que inspiraba su fortaleza. Están confundidos y yacen, incircuncisos, con los pasados a cuchillo, llevando su ignominia con los bajados a la fosa.
31 The king of Egypt and all his army will see them, and they will be comforted to know that there were other huge groups of people who were killed by [their enemies’] swords.
Al verlos, el Faraón se consolará de toda su multitud. Muertos a espada están el Faraón y todo su ejército, dice Yahvé, el Señor.
32 While he was living, I allowed him to cause others in many countries to be terrified, but he and his huge army will be there among other godless people who had been killed by [their enemies’] swords. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh the Lord, am the one who has said [that it would happen].”
Pues aunque le puse por terror en la tierra de los vivientes, el Faraón yacerá entre los incircuncisos, entre los pasados a cuchillo; él y toda su mucha gente” —oráculo de Yahvé.
