Isaías 22

1 CARGA del valle de la visión. ¿Qué tienes ahora, que toda tú te has subido sobre los terrados?

The burden of the Valley of Vision. What is [troubling] you now, that you have gone up, All of you—to the roofs?

2 Tú, llena de alborotos, ciudad turbulenta, ciudad alegre; tus muertos no son muertos á cuchillo, ni muertos en guerra.

Full of stirs—a noisy city—an exulting city, Your pierced are not pierced of the sword, Nor dead in battle.

3 Todos tus príncipes juntos huyeron del arco, fueron atados: todos los que en ti se hallaron, fueron atados juntamente, [aunque] lejos se habían huído.

All your rulers fled from the bow together, All found of you have been bound, They have been kept bound together, They have fled far off.

4 Por esto dije: Dejadme, lloraré amargamente; no os afanéis por consolarme de la destrucción de la hija de mi pueblo.

Therefore I said, “Look [away] from me, I am bitter in my weeping, do not hurry to comfort me, For the destruction of the daughter of my people.”

5 Porque día es de alboroto, y de huella, y de fatiga por el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos en el valle de la visión, para derribar el muro, y [dar] grita al monte.

For a day of noise, and of treading down, And of perplexity, [is] to the Lord, YHWH of Hosts, In the Valley of Vision, digging down a wall, And crying to the mountain.

6 Y Elam tomó aljaba en carro de hombres y de caballeros; y Chîr descubrió escudo.

And Elam has carried a quiver, In a chariot of men—horsemen, And Kir has exposed a shield.

7 Y acaeció que tus hermosos valles fueron llenos de carros, y los de á caballo acamparon á la puerta.

And it comes to pass, The choice of your valleys have been full of chariots, And the horsemen diligently place themselves at the gate.

8 Y desnudó la cobertura de Judá; y miraste en aquel día hacia la casa de armas del bosque.

And one removes the covering of Judah, And in that day you look To the armor of the house of the forest,

9 Y visteis las roturas de la ciudad de David, que se multiplicaron; y recogisteis las aguas de la pesquera de abajo.

And you have seen the breaches of the City of David, For they have become many, And you gather the waters of the lower pool,

10 Y contasteis las casas de Jerusalem, y derribasteis casas para fortificar el muro.

And you numbered the houses of Jerusalem, And you break down the houses to fortify the wall.

11 E hicisteis foso entre los dos muros con las aguas de la pesquera vieja: y no tuvisteis respeto al que la hizo, ni mirasteis de lejos al que la labró.

And you made a ditch between the two walls, For the waters of the old pool, And you have not looked to its Maker, And you have not seen its Framer of old.

12 Por tanto el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos llamó en este día á llanto y á endechas, á mesar y á vestir saco.

And the Lord calls, YHWH of Hosts, In that day, to weeping and to lamentation, And to baldness and to girding on of sackcloth,

13 Y he aquí gozo y alegría, matando vacas y degollando ovejas, comer carne y beber vino, [diciendo]: Comamos y bebamos, que mañana moriremos.

And behold, joy and gladness, slaying of oxen, And slaughtering of sheep, Eating of flesh, and drinking of wine, Eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.

14 Esto fué revelado á mis oídos de parte de Jehová de los ejércitos: Que este pecado no os será perdonado hasta que muráis, dice el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos.

And it has been revealed in my ears, [By] YHWH of Hosts: This iniquity is not pardoned to you, Until you die, said the Lord, YHWH of Hosts.

15 Jehová de los ejércitos dice así: Ve, entra á este tesorero, á Sebna el mayordomo, [y dile]:

Thus said the Lord, YHWH of Hosts: “Go forth, go to this steward, To Shebna, who [is] over the house:

16 ¿Qué tienes tú aquí, ó á quién tienes tú aquí, que labraste aquí sepulcro para ti, [como] el que en lugar alto labra su sepultura, ó el que esculpe para sí morada en una peña?

What are you [doing] here? And who has [allowed] you here? That you have hewn out a tomb for yourself here? Hewing his tomb on high, Carving a dwelling for himself in a rock.

17 He aquí que Jehová te trasportará en duro cautiverio, y de cierto te cubrirá [el rostro].

Behold, YHWH is casting you up and down, A casting up and down, O mighty one,

18 Te echará á rodar con ímpetu, como á bola por tierra larga de términos: allá morirás, y allá estarán los carros de tu gloria, oh vergüenza de la casa de tu señor.

And your coverer covering, wrapping around, Wraps you around, O babbler, On a land of broad sides—there you die, And there the chariots of your glory [are] the shame of the house of your lord.

19 Y arrojarte he de tu lugar, y de tu puesto te empujaré.

And I have thrust you from your station, And he throws you down from your office.

20 Y será que, en aquel día, llamaré á mi siervo Eliacim, hijo de Hilcías;

And it has come to pass in that day, That I have called to My servant, To Eliakim son of Hilkiah.

21 Y vestirélo de tus vestiduras, y le fortaleceré con tu talabarte, y entregaré en sus manos tu potestad; y será padre al morador de Jerusalem, y á la casa de Judá.

And I have clothed him with your coat, And I strengthen him with your girdle, And I give your garment into his hand, And he has been for a father to the inhabitant of Jerusalem, And to the house of Judah.

22 Y pondré la llave de la casa de David sobre su hombro; y abrirá, y nadie cerrará; cerrará, y nadie abrirá.

And I have placed the key Of the house of David on his shoulder, And he has opened, and none is shutting, And has shut, and none is opening.

23 E hincarélo como clavo en lugar firme; y será por asiento de honra á la casa de su padre.

And I have fixed him [as] a nail in a steadfast place, And he has been for a throne of glory To the house of his father.

24 Y colgarán de él toda la honra de la casa de su padre, los hijos y los nietos, todos los vasos menores, desde los vasos de beber hasta todos los instrumentos de música.

And they have hanged on him All the glory of the house of his father, The offspring and the issue, All vessels of small quality, From vessels of basins to all vessels of flagons.

25 En aquel día, dice Jehová de los ejércitos, el clavo hincado en lugar firme será quitado, y será quebrado y caerá; y la carga que sobre él se puso, se echará á perder; porque Jehová habló.

In that day—a declaration of YHWH of Hosts, The nail that is fixed is moved In a steadfast place, Indeed, it has been cut down, and has fallen, And the burden that [is] on it has been cut off, For YHWH has spoken!”
