Isaías 34
1 Acérquense, naciones, para oír, y escuchen ustedes, pueblos. Oiga la tierra y todo lo que hay en ella, el mundo y todo lo que brota de él.
O nations and peoples: draw near, and listen, and pay attention! Let the earth and its fullness hear, the entire world and all its offspring.
2 Porque Yavé está airado contra todas las naciones y furioso contra todos sus ejércitos. Las destruirá por completo, las entregará al matadero.
For the indignation of the Lord is over all the nations, and his fury is over all their armies. He has put them to death, and he has given them over to slaughter.
3 Sus muertos serán tirados. Surgirá una hediondez de sus cadáveres y las montañas serán empapadas con su sangre.
Their slain will be cast out, and from their carcasses a foul odor will rise up. The mountains will languish because of their blood.
4 Toda la hueste del cielo se disolverá. El cielo se envolverá como un rollo. Toda su hueste caerá como la hoja cae de la vid, como un higo seco cae de la higuera.
And the entire army of the heavens will languish, and the heavens will be folded like a book. And their entire army will fall away, as a leaf falls from the vine or from the fig tree.
5 Mi espada se embriagará en los cielos. Descenderá para juicio en Edom, sobre el pueblo de mi maldición.
“For my sword in heaven has been inebriated. Behold, it will descend upon Idumea, and upon the people of my slaughter, unto judgment.”
6 La espada de Yavé chorrea sangre. Está untada de sustancia de sangre de corderos y machos cabríos, de grasa de riñones de carneros. Porque Yavé tiene un sacrificio en Bosra, y una gran matanza en Edom.
The sword of the Lord has been filled with blood. It has been thickened by the blood of lambs and he-goats, by the innermost blood of rams. For the victim of the Lord is in Bozrah, and a great slaughter is in the land of Edom.
7 Búfalos con toros y novillos caen juntos. La tierra se embriaga de su sangre y el polvo se humedece con grasa.
And the single-horned beasts will descend with them, and the bulls along with the mighty. Their land will be inebriated by blood, and their ground by the fat of their lazy ones.
8 Porque es el día de la venganza de Yavé, año de retribución para la causa de Sion.
For this is the day of the vengeance of the Lord, the year of retribution for the judgment of Zion.
9 Sus torrentes se convierten en brea, su polvo en azufre, su tierra en brea ardiente
And its torrents will be turned into tar, and its soil into sulfur. And its land will become burning tar.
10 que no se apaga de noche ni de día, y su humo sube perpetuamente. De generación en generación seguirá desolada. Nunca jamás pasará alguien por ella.
Night and day, it will not be extinguished; its smoke will rise up without ceasing. From generation to generation it will remain desolate. No one will pass through it, forever and ever.
11 El pelícano y el erizo se adueñan de ella. La lechuza y el cuervo vivirán en ella. Cordel de destrucción y plomada de asolamiento se pondrán sobre ella.
The pelican and the hedgehog will possess it. And the ibis and the raven will live in it. And a measuring line will be extended over it, so that it may be reduced to nothing, and a plumb line, unto desolation.
12 Reyes sin reino llamarán a sus príncipes, pero no los habrá. Todos sus gobernantes serán nada.
Its nobles will not be in that place. Instead, they will call upon the king, and all its leaders will be as nothing.
13 Crecen los espinos en sus palacios y ortigas y abrojos en sus fortalezas. Se convierte en guarida de chacales y en campo de avestruces.
And thorns and nettles will rise up in its houses, and the thistle in its fortified places. And it will be the lair of serpents and the pasture of ostriches.
14 Las fieras del desierto se encontrarán con las hienas, y el chivo salvaje llamará a su compañera. La lechuza también hallará allí residencia y tendrá reposo.
And demons and monsters will meet, and the hairy ones will cry out to one another. There, the ogress has lain down and found rest for herself.
15 Allí también habrá nido de búho. Pondrá sus huevos, los incubará y los empollará. Allí se juntarán los buitres, cada uno con su compañera.
In that place, the hedgehog has kept its den, and has raised its young, and has dug around them, and has kept them warm in its shadow. In that place, the birds of prey have joined together, one to another.
16 Escudriñen el Rollo de Yavé y lean si faltó alguno de ellos. Ninguno faltó con su compañera, porque su boca habló y su mismo Espíritu los reunió.
Search and read diligently in the book of the Lord. Not one of them was lacking; not one has sought for the other. For what has proceeded from my mouth, he has commanded, and his very Spirit has gathered them.
17 Él realizó el sorteo para ellos, y su mano les repartió a cordel. Para siempre la poseerán. Vivirán allí de generación en generación.
And he has cast lots over them. And his hand has distributed this to them by measure. They will possess it, even unto eternity. From generation to generation, they will dwell in it.
