Isaías 25
1 Jehová, Dios mío eres tú: ensalzarte he, y alabaré tu nombre; porque has hecho maravillas; los consejos antiguos, la verdad firme.
Yahweh, you are my God; I will honor you and praise you [MTY]. You do wonderful things; you said long ago that you would do those things, and now you have done them like you said that you would.
2 Que tornaste la ciudad en montón, la ciudad fuerte en ruina: el alcázar de los extraños que no sea ciudad, ni nunca para siempre sea reedificada.
[Sometimes] you have caused cities to become heaps of rubble, cities that had strong walls around them. You have caused palaces in foreign countries to disappear; they will never be rebuilt.
3 Por esto te dará gloria el pueblo fuerte: la ciudad de naciones robustas te temerá.
Therefore, people in powerful nations will declare that you are very great, and people in nations [whose leaders are] ruthless/cruel will revere you.
4 Porque fuiste fortaleza al pobre, fortaleza al menesteroso en su aflicción, amparo contra el turbión, sombra contra el calor, porque el ímpetu de los violentos, como turbión contra hastial.
Yahweh, you are [like] [SIM] a strong tower where poor people can (find refuge/be safe), a place where needy people can go when they are distressed. [You are like] [MET] a place where people can find refuge in a storm and where they can be shaded from the hot sun. Ruthless/Cruel [people] oppress us; they are like [SIM] a storm beating against a wall,
5 Como el calor en lugar seco, así humillarás el orgullo de los extraños; y como con calor que quema debajo de nube, harás marchitar el pimpollo de los robustos.
and like [SIM] [the intense] heat in the desert. [But] you cause the roaring of people in foreign nations to cease. Like the air cools when a cloud comes overhead, you stop ruthless/cruel [people] from singing songs boasting about their being very great.
6 Y Jehová de los ejércitos hará en este monte a todos los pueblos convite de engordados, convite de purificados, de gruesos tuétanos, de purificados líquidos.
Here in Jerusalem, the Commander of the armies of angels will prepare a wonderful feast for all the people [of the world]. It will be a banquet with plenty of good meat and fine well-aged [DOU] wine.
7 Y deshará en este monte la máscara de la cobertura con que están cubiertos todos los pueblos, y la cubierta que está extendida sobre todas las naciones.
[People here are] sad; their being sad is [like] a dark cloud that hangs over them, like they experience when someone dies. But Yahweh will enable them to quit being sad.
8 Destruirá a la muerte para siempre; y limpiará el Señor Jehová toda lágrima de todos los rostros; y quitará la vergüenza de su pueblo de toda la tierra; porque Jehová lo ha dicho.
He will get rid of death forever! Yahweh our God will cause people to no longer mourn because someone has died. And he will stop other people insulting and making fun of his land and [us] his people. [That will surely happen because] Yahweh has said it!
9 Y dirá en aquel día: He aquí, este es nuestro Dios, a quien esperamos, y salvarnos ha: este es Jehová a quien esperamos, gozarnos hemos y alegrarnos hemos en su salud.
At that time, [people] will proclaim, “Yahweh is our God! We trusted in him, and he rescued us! Yahweh, in whom we trusted, has done it; we should rejoice because of his saving/rescuing [us]!”
10 Porque la mano de Jehová reposará en este monte; y Moab será trillado debajo de él, como es trillada la paja en el muladar.
Yahweh [MTY] will protect and bless Jerusalem. [But] he will crush [the people in the land of] Moab; they will be like [SIM] straw that is trampled in the manure [and left to rot].
11 Y extenderá su mano por medio de él, como la extiende el nadador para nadar; y abatirá su soberbia con los brazos de sus manos.
Yahweh will push down the people of Moab like [SIM] a swimmer pushes [the water] with his hands. He will cause them to cease being proud, and he will show that all the things that they have done are worthless.
12 Y allanará la fortaleza de tus muros altos: humillarla ha, derribarla ha a tierra, hasta el polvo.
The high walls [around the cities] in Moab will be torn down; they will be demolished and fall into the dust/dirt.
