Jeremías 30
1 Palabra de Yavé que vino a Jeremías:
The word which came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying: —
2 Yavé ʼElohim de Israel dice: Escribe en un rollo todas las Palabras que te hablé.
Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: Write thee all the words which I have spoken to thee in a book.
3 Porque ciertamente vienen días, dice Yavé, en los cuales devolveré de la cautividad a mi pueblo Israel y Judá. Los devolveré a la tierra que di a sus antepasados, y tomarán posesión de ella.
For behold the days come, saith Jehovah, when I will bring back the captives of my people Israel and Judah, saith Jehovah, and cause them to return to the land which I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
4 Éstas son las Palabras que Yavé habló con respecto a Israel y Judá:
And these are the words which Jehovah spake concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
5 Porque Yavé dice: Oí un ruido de terror y espanto y no de paz.
Behold, thus saith Jehovah: The voice of trembling do we hear; There is alarm, and no peace.
6 Pregunten y averigüen: ¿Da a luz el varón? ¿Por qué veo a todo varón como parturienta con las manos en las caderas y todas las caras palidecieron?
Ask ye now and see, Whether a male doth bring forth? Why then do I see every man's hands upon his loins, like a woman in travail? And why are all faces turned into paleness?
7 ¡Ay, cuán grande es aquel día! No hay otro semejante a él. Tiempo de angustia para Jacob. Pero de ella será librado.
Alas! that day is great, So that there is none like it; It is a time of trouble for Jacob, Yet shall he be saved from it.
8 Aquel día, dice Yavé de las huestes, Yo quebraré el yugo de su nuca y romperé sus correas. Los extranjeros no volverán a someterlo a esclavitud,
For in that day, saith Jehovah of hosts, I will break his yoke from his neck, And his bands will I burst asunder, And he shall be subject to strangers no more.
9 sino servirán a Yavé su ʼElohim y a David su rey, a quien Yo levantaré para ellos.
But they shall serve Jehovah, their God, And David, their king, whom I will raise up for them.
10 Tú pues, esclavo mío Jacob, no temas, dice Yavé, ni te atemorices, Israel. Porque ciertamente Yo te salvo del país remoto, a ti y a tu descendencia, de la tierra de cautividad. Jacob regresará, descansará y vivirá tranquilo, y no habrá quien lo espante.
Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob, saith Jehovah, And be not thou dismayed, O Israel! For, behold, I will bring thee safe from afar, And thy posterity from the land of their captivity; And Jacob shall return, and be at rest; Yea, he shall be quiet, and none shall make him afraid.
11 Porque Yo estoy contigo para salvarte, dice Yavé. Destruiré a todas las naciones en las cuales te dispersé, pero a ti no te destruiré. Te corregiré con justicia. De ninguna manera te dejaré impune.
For I will be with thee, saith Jehovah, to save thee; When I shall make a full end of all the nations Whither I have dispersed thee, Yet will I not make a full end of thee; I will correct thee in measure, Yet must I not leave thee wholly unpunished.
12 Porque Yavé dice: Tu quebranto es incurable, y tu herida dolorosa.
For thus saith Jehovah: Thy bruise is incurable; Thy wound is mortal.
13 No hay quien defienda tu causa para vendar tu herida. No hay remedios eficaces.
No one offereth his help for thy cure; No healing medicines are applied to thee.
14 Todos tus amantes te olvidaron. Ya no te buscan, porque te herí como a un enemigo con castigo de hombre cruel, a causa de tus numerosas maldades y tus numerosos pecados.
All thy lovers have forgotten thee; They inquire not after thee. For with the wound of an enemy have I smitten thee, With the chastisement of a cruel one, For the multitude of thine iniquities, Because thy sins were increased.
15 ¿Por qué clamas a causa de tu quebranto? Incurable es tu dolor. Porque por lo enorme de tu iniquidad y por tus muchos pecados te apliqué esto.
Why criest thou because of thy bruise? Thy pain is without remedy. For the multitude of thine iniquities, Because thy sins were increased, Have I done these things to thee.
16 Pero todos los que te devoran serán devorados. Todos tus adversarios, cada uno de ellos, irán al cautiverio. Todos los que te despojan serán despojados y todos los que te saquean serán saqueados.
Yet all they that devour thee shall be devoured, And all thine enemies, yea, all of them, shall go into captivity, And they that spoil thee shall become a spoil, And all that plunder thee will I give up to plunder.
17 Porque Yo te restauraré la salud y sanaré tus heridas, dice Yavé, porque te llamaron la repudiada y dijeron: Ésta es Sion. Nadie la cuida.
For I will restore soundness to thee, And I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith Jehovah; For they have called thee the outcast, Zion, whom no man careth for.
18 Yavé dice: En verdad, Yo restauro de la cautividad las tiendas de Jacob. De sus tiendas tendré misericordia. La ciudad será edificada sobre su colina, y el palacio estará en el lugar que le corresponde.
Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will bring back the captives of the tents of Jacob, And I will have pity upon his dwelling-places, And the city shall be builded upon her heap, And the palace shall be inhabited as of old.
19 De ellos saldrán acciones de gracias y la voz de los que se regocijan. Los multiplicaré y no los disminuiré. No serán despreciados.
And out of them shall go forth thanksgiving, And the voice of them that make merry. And I will multiply them, and they shall not be few, And I will exalt them, and they shall not be low.
20 Sus hijos serán como antes. Su congregación se mantendrá delante de mi Presencia. Castigaré a todos sus opresores.
And their children shall be as aforetime, And their congregation shall be established before me, And I will punish all that oppress them.
21 De ella saldrá su soberano, su caudillo. Yo lo acercaré a Mí y él se acercará a Mí. ¿Porque quién se atrevería, dice Yavé, a arriesgar su vida para acercarse a Mí?
And their princes shall be of themselves, And their governor shall proceed from the midst of them. And I will cause them to approach, and they shall come near to me; For who is he that would dare to come near to me? saith Jehovah.
22 Y me serán pueblo y Yo seré su ʼElohim.
And ye shall be my people, And I will be your God.
23 Miren: La tempestad de Yavé sale con furor, tempestad arrebatadora que cae en la cabeza de los perversos.
Behold, a whirlwind from Jehovah, Furious doth it go forth, Even a sweeping whirlwind; Upon the head of the wicked shall it rush.
24 No se calmará el ardor de la ira de Yavé hasta que ejecute y cumpla los propósitos de su corazón. Al final de los días entenderán esto.
The fierce anger of Jehovah shall not turn back Until he shall have executed, until he shall have accomplished, the purpose of his heart; In a future day ye shall understand it fully.
