Isaiah 64
1 “[Yahweh], I wish that you would tear open the sky and come down, and cause the mountains to shake in your presence.
¡Oh, si rompiese los cielos, y descendieras, y a tu presencia se escurriesen los montes,
2 [Be] like a fire that burns twigs and causes water to boil! [Come down] in order that your enemies will know who you are, and the [people of other] nations will tremble in your presence.
como fuego que abrasando derrite, fuego que hace hervir el agua, para que hicieras notorio tu nombre a tus enemigos, y los gentiles temblasen a tu presencia!
3 You have done awesome things which we were not expecting you to do; the mountains shook when you came down [at Horeb Mountain].
Como descendiste, cuando hiciste cosas terribles cuales nunca esperábamos, que los montes escurrieron delante de ti.
4 Since (long ago/the world began), no one [SYN] has [ever] seen or heard about a God like you; you help those who (depend on/trust in) you.
Ni nunca oyeron, ni oídos percibieron; ni ojo ha visto Dios fuera de ti, que hiciese otro tanto por el que en él espera.
5 You help those who joyfully do what is right, those who conduct their lives as you want them to. But [we did not do that]; we continued to sin, and so you became angry with us. We have been sinning for a long time, so only if we continually do what you want us to do will we be saved.
Saliste al encuentro al que con alegría obró justicia. En tus caminos se acordaban de ti. He aquí, tú te enojaste porque pecamos; tus caminos son eternos y nosotros seremos salvos.
6 We have all become people who are not fit to worship you; all of the good things that we have done are only like [SIM] filthy/blood-stained rags. Because of our sins, we are like [SIM] leaves that dry up and are blown away by the wind.
Que todos nosotros eramos como suciedad, y todas nuestras justicias como trapo de inmundicia; y caímos todos nosotros como la hoja del árbol; y nuestras maldades nos llevaron como viento.
7 None [of our people] worships you, and no one is completely dedicated to [IDM] you. You have turned away from us. [It is as though] you have caused us to be forced to continue our sinful behavior.
Y nadie hay que invoque tu nombre, ni que se despierte para tenerte, por lo cual escondiste de nosotros tu rostro, y nos dejaste marchitar en poder de nuestras maldades.
8 Yahweh, you are our father. We are [like] [MET] clay, and you created us, [like] [MET] a potter [creates pottery].
Ahora pues, SEÑOR, tú eres nuestro padre; nosotros lodo, y tú el que nos obraste, así que obra de tus manos somos todos nosotros.
9 Yahweh, do not continue to be angry [with us]; do not keep thinking about [our] sins forever. Do not forget that we are all your people.
No te aíres, oh SEÑOR, sobremanera; ni tengas perpetua memoria de la iniquidad. He aquí, mira ahora, pueblo tuyo somos todos nosotros.
10 [All of] your towns [in Judah] have become like [MET] deserts; [even] Jerusalem has been destroyed.
Tus santas ciudades son desiertas, Sion desierto es, y Jerusalén soledad.
11 Your glorious temple on Zion Hill, where our ancestors worshiped you, has been destroyed by fire. And all our [other] beautiful things have been ruined.
La Casa de nuestro Santuario y de nuestra gloria, en la cual te alabaron nuestros padres, fue quemada al fuego; y todas nuestras cosas preciosas fueron destruidas.
12 Yahweh, you see all those things, so we worry that you will refrain [from helping us], and that you will cause us to suffer much more.
¿Te estarás quieto, oh SEÑOR, sobre estas cosas? ¿Callarás, y nos afligirás sobremanera?
