Ezequiel 32

1 Y aconteció en el año duodécimo, en el mes duodécimo, el primer día del mes, que la palabra del Señor vino a mí, diciendo:

Almost twelve years [after we had been taken to Babylonia], on the first day of the twelfth month [of that year], Yahweh gave me another message. He said,

2 Hijo del hombre, canta un canto de tristeza para el faraón, rey de Egipto, y dile: Joven león de las naciones, ha llegado la destrucción sobre ti; y tú eras como una bestia marina en el mar, enviando ráfagas de agua, enturbiando las aguas con tus pies, enturbiando sus arroyos.

“You human, sing a sad/funeral song about the king of Egypt. Sing this to him: ‘You [think that you] [IRO] are like [SIM] a lion among the nations; or like [SIM] a monster/crocodile in the river thrashing around in the water, churning/stirring up the water with your feet and causing the water to become muddy.

3 Esto es lo que ha dicho el Señor Dios: Mi red se extenderá sobre ti en compañía de mucha gente, y ellos te subirán en mi red.

But this is what Yahweh the Lord says: “I will send many people to throw my net over you, and they will haul/drag you up [onto the land] in my net.

4 Y dejaré que te extiendas sobre la tierra; Te echaré violentamente al campo abierto; Dejaré que todas las aves del cielo descansen sobre ti y haré que las bestias de toda la tierra se llenen de ti.

They will throw you into a field [DOU] [to die]; I will allow the birds to sit on you, and all the wild animals will eat the flesh of your corpse until their stomachs are full.

5 Y pondré tu carne sobre los montes, y llenaré los valles de tu altura.

I will cause them to scatter your flesh on the hills and fill the valleys with your bones.

6 Y la tierra será regada con tu sangre, y los cursos de agua estarán llenos de ti.

I will cause them to fill the land with your blood, all the way to the mountains, and the ravines will be filled with your flesh.

7 Y cuando yo extinga tu vida, el cielo se cubrirá y sus estrellas se oscurecerán; Dejaré que el sol se cubra con una nube y la luna no le dará luz.

When I get rid of you, I will cover the sky and not allow the stars to shine. I will put a dark cloud in front of the sun, and the moon will not shine.

8 Todas las luces brillantes del cielo oscurecerán sobre ti, y pondré noche oscura en tu tierra, dice el Señor Dios.

I will cause the stars in the sky to be dark, and there will be darkness over your entire land; [that will surely happen because] I, Yahweh the Lord, have said it.

9 Y los corazones de los pueblos se turbarán cuando yo envíe destrucción entre las naciones, hasta países que no has conocido.

And when the people of many nations hear about your being destroyed, many of them will be afraid/worried— people living in countries that you have never known about.

10 Y haré que muchos pueblos se queden atónitos ante ti, y sus reyes se llenarán de temor por ti, cuando mi espada se agite ante ellos: estarán temblando cada minuto, cada hombre temiendo por su vida, en el día de tu caída.

I will cause many people to be appalled because of [what has happened to] you, and their kings will be horrified and shudder/shake because of your [being destroyed], when I swing my sword in front of them. At the time that you will be destroyed, all of them will tremble, fearing that they also will be killed.”

11 Porque esto es lo que ha dicho el Señor Dios: La espada del rey de Babilonia vendrá sobre ti.

This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “The swords of [the army of] the King of Babylon will strike you.

12 Dejaré que las espadas de los fuertes sean la causa de la caída de tu pueblo; todos ellos hombres crueles entre las naciones, y destruirán el orgullo de Egipto, y toda su gente será destruida.

I will cause very many of your people to be killed by the swords of mighty soldiers [from Babylonia], who are more ruthless/cruel than the soldiers of all other nations. They will cause the people of Egypt to quit being proud, because very many [HYP] of their people will be killed.

13 Y pondré fin a todas sus bestias que están junto a las muchas aguas, y nunca más serán molestadas por el pie del hombre o por las pezuñas de las bestias.

I will destroy all the cattle in Egypt that (graze/eat grass) alongside the streams. As a result, the water in those streams will never again become muddy because of people and cattle walking in them.

14 Entonces aclararé sus aguas y sus ríos fluirán como aceite, dice el Señor Dios.

Then I will allow the streams in Egypt to become calm again and flow [as smoothly] [SIM] as olive oil flows.

15 Cuando yo haga de Egipto una ruina, despojándolo de la tierra de todas las cosas que contiene; cuando envíe castigo a todos los que viven en ella, les quedará claro que yo soy Dios.

When I cause Egypt to become empty/desolate and strip off everything that grows on the land, and when I get rid of all the people who live there, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”’

16 Es un canto de dolor, y la gente lo cantará, las hijas de las naciones lo cantarán, incluso por Egipto y todo su pueblo, dice el Señor Dios.

That sad song about Egypt will also be sung by the people. Women of many nations will sing it. They will chant it about Egypt and all its people; [that will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said that it would happen.”

17 Y en el año duodécimo, a los quince días del mes, vino a mí la palabra del Señor, diciendo:

On the fifteenth day of that same month, Yahweh gave me another message. He said,

18 Hijo de hombre, que tu voz sea fuerte en el dolor por la multitud de Egipto y hazlos descender, a ella y las hijas de las naciones poderosas; Los enviaré a las partes más bajas de la tierra, con los que descienden al inframundo.

“You human, wail about the many people of Egypt, because I will send them to the place under the earth, where they and people of other mighty nations will be. I will send them there, along with others, down to the place where the dead are.

19 ¿Eres más bella que ninguna? desciende y descansa entre los que no tienen circuncisión,

Say to them, ‘You people of [APO] Egypt, [you think that] [IRO, RHQ] you are more beautiful than the people of other nations. But you also will descend to the place where the godless dead people are.

20 Entre los que han sido puestos a la espada ellos caerán; a la espada es entregada, la sacaron con toda la multitud.

[Your enemies] will pull out their swords and kill many of you. A huge number of the people of Egypt who remain will be dragged away.

21 Los fuertes entre los poderosos le dirán desde él medio del Seol; desciende, tú y tus ayudantes, y descansa entre los que no tienen circuncisión. (Sheol h7585)

In the place where the dead people are, mighty leaders [of other countries] will [make fun of the people of Egypt] and say, “They have come here to lie with us godless people who were killed by our enemies’ swords!”’ (Sheol h7585)

22 Allí está Asiria y todo su ejército, alrededor de su tumba; todos ellos muertos por la espada.

[The corpses of the people of] Assyria will be there. They will be surrounded by [corpses of] soldiers who were killed by [their enemies’] swords.

23 Cuyos tumbas se encuentran en los partes más profundas de la fosa, y está rodeada de toda su multitud, todos ellos muertos a espada, que fueron causa de temor en la tierra de los vivos.

The people’s graves are there in the deep pit, and [corpses of soldiers of] their army lie around their graves. Corpses of all those who had caused many others in other places to be terrified also will be there, having been killed by swords.

24 Están Elam y toda su gente, alrededor de su tumba; todos ellos muertos por la espada, que han descendido sin circuncisión a las partes más bajas de la tierra, que fueron causa de temor en la tierra de los vivos, y llevarán su vergüenza con los que descienden al pozo.

A great number of the people of Elam will be there. They also were killed by [their enemies’] swords. They had caused people in many places [HYP] to be terrified. At that time they will lie there in that deep pit below the earth, and they, along with the others who have gone there, will be disgraced.

25 Le han hecho una cama entre los muertos, y toda su gente está alrededor de su tumba; todos ellos sin la circuncisión, muertos con la espada; porque fueron causa de temor en la tierra de los vivos, y llevan su vergüenza con los que descienden al inframundo; se les ha dado un lugar entre los muertos.

They will lie there among others who were slaughtered, surrounded by the graves of a huge crowd of other people. While they were alive, they caused people of other nations to be terrified; but they were godless, and now, having been killed by [their enemies] swords, they will lie with others in that deep pit, disgraced, all of them avoiding each other.

26 Allí están Mesec, Tubal y toda su gente alrededor de su tumba; todos ellos sin circuncisión, muertos por la espada; porque eran causa de temor en la tierra de los vivos.

[Corpses of] soldiers of Meshech and Tubal will be there, surrounded by the graves of a huge crowd of their people. They were all godless people who were killed by swords because while they were alive, they also caused people in many places [HYP] to be terrified.

27 Pero no yacen junto a los valientes caídos, de entre los incircuncisos que llegaron a su fin, que bajaron al inframundo con sus instrumentos de guerra, colocando sus espadas debajo de sus cabezas, pero sus iniquidades estarán sobre sus huesos; porque fueron causa de temor en los valientes en la tierra de los vivos. (Sheol h7585)

They will surely [RHQ] not be buried honorably like the soldiers who have died, whose shields were buried with their corpses, whose swords were placed on their skulls in the graves. While those godless people were alive, they had caused many people in the land to be terrified, so they were punished for their sins. (Sheol h7585)

28 Pero serás quebrantado entre los que no tienen circuncisión, y tendrás tu tumba con los que han muerto con la espada.

You king of Egypt, you also be killed and will lie there with other godless people who have been killed by [their enemies’] swords.

29 Está Edom, sus reyes y todos sus príncipes, quienes son sepultados con los que fueron sometidos a la espada; descansan entre los que no han sido circuncidados, con los que descienden al inframundo.

People of the Edom people-group will be there, along with their kings and leaders. They were powerful, but they will [be killed and] lie there in the place where the other dead people are. They will lie there in that deep pit, with the other godless people.

30 Hay todos los jefes del norte, todos ellos, y todos los sidonios, que a pesar del terror causado por su poderío, han caído con los que han sido muertos a la espada; son avergonzados por todo el miedo causado por su fuerza; descansan allí sin circuncisión, entre los que han sido sometidos a la espada, y son avergonzados con los que descienden a la fosa.

All the rulers of countries north [of Israel], including people from Sidon, will be there. Because of their power, they caused people to be terrified, but they will lie there. They were godless, and they will lie there along with others who were killed by [their enemies’] swords. They, along with everyone else who descends into that deep pit, will be disgraced.

31 Faraón los verá y lamentará a causa de todo su pueblo; incluso el Faraón y todo su ejército, muerto por la espada, dice el Señor Dios.

The king of Egypt and all his army will see them, and they will be comforted to know that there were other huge groups of people who were killed by [their enemies’] swords.

32 Porque yo infundí el terror de Faraón en la tierra de los vivos, y yacerá entre los que no tienen circuncisión, y los que han sido muertos con la espada, incluso el Faraón y todo su pueblo, dice el Señor Dios.

While he was living, I allowed him to cause others in many countries to be terrified, but he and his huge army will be there among other godless people who had been killed by [their enemies’] swords. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh the Lord, am the one who has said [that it would happen].”
