Ezekiel 35
1 Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
Me fue dirigida la palabra de Yahvé en estos términos:
2 “You human, turn toward Edom and prophesy what will happen to its people. Say that this is what Yahweh says to them:
“Hijo de hombre, vuelve tu rostro contra la montaña de Seír y profetiza contra ella.
3 ‘You who live near Seir Mountain [in Edom], I am opposed to you, and I will use my power [MTY] to strike you and cause your country to become a wasteland.
Dile: Así dice Yahvé, el Señor: He aquí que estoy contra ti, montaña de Seír; extenderé mi mano contra ti, y haré de ti una soledad y un desierto.
4 I will cause your country to be ruined and desolate. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
Reduciré tus ciudades a ruinas; serás un país despoblado, y conocerás que Yo soy Yahvé.
5 You have always been enemies of the Israeli people. You [rejoiced] when they experienced a great disaster: [their enemies attacked them with] swords, when I punished them [for the sins that they had committed].
Porque tienes un odio perpetuo, y entregaste los hijos de Israel a la espada, en el tiempo de su calamidad, al llegar la iniquidad al colmo.
6 Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, I will allow [your enemies] to slaughter [MTY] you and continue to slaughter you. You were happy when [LIT] others were slaughtered;
Por eso, por mi vida, dice Yahvé, el Señor, que te transformaré en sangre, y la sangre te perseguirá. Por cuanto no aborreciste la sangre, la sangre te perseguirá.
7 so I will cause Seir Mountain to be abandoned/deserted, and I will get rid of anyone who enters it or leaves it.
Convertiré los montes de Seír en desierto completo y exterminaré de él al que va y al que viene.
8 I will cause your mountains to be filled with [the corpses of] those who have been killed. The corpses of those who have been killed by [your enemies’] swords will lie on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines.
Llenaré sus montes de sus muertos; en tus collados, en tus valles, en todos tus torrentes yacerán los traspasados por la espada.
9 I will cause your land to be deserted forever. No one will live in your towns again. When that happens, you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
En desolación perpetua te trocaré, y tus ciudades no serán ya habitadas; entonces conoceréis que Yo soy Yahvé.
10 You people said, “Israel and Judah will become ours. We will take over their territory!” You said that even though I, Yahweh, was still there [and protecting them].
Pues dijiste: Ambos pueblos y ambos países son míos, y nosotros los poseeremos, siendo así que Yahvé estaba allí.
11 Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, I will punish [MTY] you for being angry with my people, envying them, and hating them.
Por eso, por mi vida, dice Yahvé, el Señor, que te trataré según la medida de tu ira y de tu envidia, con que tú, en tu odio, los trataste, y Yo, al juzgarte a ti, seré conocido por ellos.
12 Then you will know that I, Yahweh, have heard all the disgusting things that you have said about the mountains in Israel. You said that they have been ruined/devastated, and that they have been given to you to occupy [MET].
Entonces conocerás que Yo, Yahvé, he escuchado todas las injurias que proferiste contra los montes de Israel, diciendo: «Devastados están, nos han sido dados como presa».
13 When you insulted me, I heard all that you said about me.
Os ensoberbecisteis contra Mí con vuestra boca y multiplicasteis contra Mí vuestras palabras. Yo las he oído.
14 So this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: You people who live on Seir Mountain and in all the other places in Edom, when I cause your land to become desolate, everyone in the entire world will rejoice.
Esto dice Yahvé, el Señor: Alegrándose toda la tierra haré de ti un yermo.
15 You were happy when the land [MTY] of the Israeli people became desolate, so I will cause your land to become desolate. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
Como tú te alegraste de la desolación de la casa de Israel, así haré Yo contigo. Yermo serás, serranía de Seír, e Idumea toda entera; y se conocerá que Yo soy Yahvé.
