< Ezequiel 7 >
1 Me llegó un mensaje del Señor que decía:
Yahweh gave me another message. [He said]
2 “Hijo de hombre, esto es lo que dice el Señor Dios al pueblo que vive en Israel: “¡El fin ha llegado! El fin ha llegado a todo el país.
“You human, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say to [the people] [MTY] of Israel: All of Israel will soon be destroyed.
3 ¡Ahora es el fin para ustedes! Voy a dirigir mi ira contra ti. Te juzgaré por tus acciones y te pagaré por las cosas ofensivas que has hecho.
[people of Israel], the end has come. I will punish you severely. I will judge you for all the wicked things that you have done, and pay you back for your disgusting behavior.
4 No tendré piedad de ti, ni te mostraré misericordia. Te voy a castigar por lo que has hecho, por tus repugnantes pecados. Entonces sabrás que yo soy el Señor.
I will not pity you or act mercifully toward you. I will [surely] punish you for your wicked behavior [DOU]. Then you will know that [it has happened because] I, Yahweh, [have done it].”
5 “Esto es lo que dice el Señor: ¡Cuidado! ¡Viene un desastre tras otro!
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “You will soon experience many terrible disasters!
6 ¡El fin está aquí! ¡El fin ha llegado, y viene para ti! ¡Cuidado! ¡Este es el fin!
This will be the [of Israel]; your country will be finished! And your [lives] will be ended [PRS]!
7 Ustedes, habitantes de la tierra, las consecuencias de sus acciones han llegado a su fin. Ha llegado el momento, el día está cerca: gritos de pánico en las montañas y no gritos de alegría.
It will be the end of you people who live in the [of Israel]. The time has come; the [when you will be destroyed] is near. At that time [the people who worship idols] on the mountains will not be happy; they will panic.
8 Dentro de muy poco te voy a mostrar lo enojado que estoy contigo. Te juzgaré por lo que has hecho, y te castigaré por todos tus repugnantes pecados.
I am very angry with you and am about to pour out my punishment [MTY] on you. I will judge you for all the wicked things that you have done and pay you back for your disgusting behavior.
9 No tendré piedad de ti ni te mostraré misericordia. Te voy a castigar por lo que has hecho, por tus repugnantes pecados. Entonces sabrás que soy yo, el Señor, quien te ataca.
I will not pity you or act mercifully toward you. I will surely punish you for your wicked behavior [DOU]. Then you will know that it is I, Yahweh, who have punished you.
10 “¿No lo ves? ¡El día está aquí! ¡Ha llegado! Las consecuencias de sus acciones han cerrado el círculo: el bastón ha florecido, el orgullo ha florecido.
The [of your punishment] is here! It has arrived! Disasters have come.
11 Su camino de violencia se ha convertido en una vara para castigarlos por su maldad. Ninguno de ellos sobrevivirá, ni toda esa multitud, ni su riqueza ni su honor.
People are acting violently and doing more wicked things. And nothing that belongs to those people will be left, none of their money, nothing that is valuable.
12 “¡Ha llegado el momento; el día está aquí! Compradores, no celebren pensando que van a obtener un buen trato; vendedores, no lloren pensando que van a tener pérdidas, porque el castigo viene para todos.
Now is the time; that day has arrived.
13 Los vendedores nunca recuperarán el precio de compra mientras estén vivos. No voy a cambiar el plan que he revelado que se aplica a todos. Los que sigan pecando no sobrevivirán.
People who buy things should not [because of buying things very cheaply], and those who sell things should not be [because they had to sell things cheaply], [Yahweh] will be punishing [MTY] everyone. During the rest of their lives, people who sell some of their property will never be able to buy it back, because I, Yahweh, will never change my mind about what I have declared; because of your sins, [I will destroy] all of you people.
14 Aunque ha sonado la trompeta que llama a las armas, aunque se han hecho todos los preparativos, nadie está dispuesto a luchar, porque estoy enojado con todos.
Even though [soldiers] blow [to prepare for] a battle, no soldier will go into a battle, because I will have killed all of them.
15 “Fuera de la ciudad hay ataques armados; dentro hay enfermedades y hambre. Los que estén en el campo morirán a espada, y los que estén en la ciudad serán destruidos por el hambre y la enfermedad.
[When those things happen, your enemies] will be [the city] with their swords, and there will be plagues and famines [the city]. [who flee from the city] into the countryside will be killed [their enemies’] swords, and those who stay in the city will die from famines and plagues.
16 Los que sobrevivan escaparán y se irán a vivir a las montañas. Suspirarán como las palomas del valle, cada uno pensando en sus propios pecados.
Those who survive and escape will flee to the mountains, and they all will moan like doves because of their sins.
17 Todas las manos cojean y todas las rodillas se debilitan.
[Because everyone will be very afraid, ] all the people’s hands will become limp and their knees will become very weak.
18 Se vestirán con ropas de saco y estarán totalmente aterrorizados. Todos se avergonzarán y se afeitarán la cabeza en señal de duelo.
They will put on clothes made from rough cloth, and they will be terrified. Their faces will show that they are ashamed, and they will shave their [to show that they are very sad].
19 Tirarán su plata en las calles y tratarán su oro como si fuera algo impuro. Su plata y su oro no podrán salvarlos cuando llegue el día de la ira del Señor. Su dinero no satisfará su hambre ni llenará sus estómagos. De hecho, este fue el problema que causó su pecado en primer lugar.
They will throw their silver into the streets, and consider that their gold is only like [SIM] garbage, because they will realize that their silver and gold will not be able to rescue them when I, Yahweh, punish them. They will not be able to use their gold and silver to buy things to fill their stomachs, because having a lot of gold and silver has led them to sin.
20 Estaban tan orgullosos de sus hermosas joyas que las usaron para hacer sus repugnantes imágenes y decorar sus ofensivos ídolos. “Así que voy a convertir estos ídolos en cosas inmundas para ellos.
They were proud of their beautiful jewelry, and they used it to make their detestable idols and disgusting [of their gods]. So I will cause them to be disgusted with those things.
21 Voy a entregar estas cosas como botín a los extranjeros y como botín a los malvados de la tierra, que las harán inmundas.
I will give their silver and gold to foreigners who invade your country and take away your valuable treasures. I will give those things to wicked people, and they will do disgraceful things to those treasures that I give them.
22 Miraré de reojo mientras hacen impuro mi precioso lugar. Los hombres violentos entrarán y lo ensuciarán.
I will not (interfere with/stop) [IDM] robbers when they enter my sacred temple and desecrate it.
23 Prepara las cadenas, porque el país está lleno de sangre derramada por crímenes violentos, y la ciudad misma está llena de violencia.
Prepare chains to be fastened on you. People are being murdered [MTY] throughout the country, and people are acting violently throughout the city.
24 Así que voy a hacer que los más malvados de todas las naciones se apoderen de sus casas. Acabaré con el orgullo de los poderosos, y sus lugares santos quedarán impuros.
So I will bring armies of the nations whose people are extremely wicked to occupy the houses of the Israeli people. I will cause Israeli [who think that they] are [IRO] strong/mighty to no longer be proud. Your enemies will cause your places of worship to no longer be acceptable to be used.
25 “Absolutamente aterrorizados, los pueblos buscarán la paz, pero no la encontrarán.
When your enemies cause you to be terrified, you will plead for them to make peace, but there will be no peace.
26 Desastre tras desastre caerá sobre ellos, y rumor tras rumor. Pedirán una visión a un profeta, pero no la habrá, y tampoco habrá instrucciones de los sacerdotes ni consejos de los ancianos.
You will experience many disasters, and you will continually hear [about disasters that are happening in other places]. People will plead with prophets to tell them what visions they have received, [but the prophets will not have received any visions]. Priests will no longer teach people the [that I gave to Moses].
27 El rey estará de luto, el príncipe estará desolado, y nadie en el país sabrá qué hacer. Haré con ellos lo que han hecho con otros; los juzgaré como han juzgado a otros. Entonces sabrán que yo soy el Señor”.
Your king will mourn, and his son will no [longer] [that good things will happen]. The hands of people throughout the country will tremble. And I will do to them what they deserve for their wicked behavior. I will [and condemn] them the same way they have [and condemned] others. Then they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
