Isaías 11
1 Y saldrá un retoño del tronco de Isaí, y una rama de sus raíces dará fruto.
[Like] [MET] a [new] shoot [often] grows from the stump [of a tree], there will be a descendant of King David who will be a new king.
2 Y el espíritu del Señor descansará sobre él, el espíritu de sabiduría e inteligencia, el espíritu de guía sabia y poder, el espíritu de conocimiento y del temor del Señor;
The Spirit of Yahweh will always be with him. The Spirit will enable him to be wise and to understand [much about many things]. The Spirit will enable him to decide what is good to do, and will enable him to be very powerful. The Spirit will enable him to know Yahweh and to revere him.
3 Y le hará entender diligentemente el temor del Señor, no será guiado en su juicio por lo que ve, ni tomará decisiones por lo que oigan sus oídos;
He will be glad to obey Yahweh. He will not decide [whether someone is righteous or not only] by seeing what that person looks like, or by listening to [what others say about that person].
4 Pero él hará lo correcto en la causa de los pobres y tomará decisiones sabias para aquellos en la tierra que están en necesidad; y la vara de su boca caerá sobre el cruel, y con el soplo de sus labios pondrá fin al malvado.
He will judge [the cases of] needy people fairly; and he will act justly toward poor people. He will punish evil people as a result of what he decides [MTY]; he will get rid of wicked people because of [MTY] [their behavior].
5 Y la justicia será el cordón de su túnica, y fidelidad la banda que rodea su pecho.
He will always act righteously; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a belt [around his waist]. He will always speak what is true; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a sash [around his waist].
6 Y el lobo vivirá con el cordero, y el leopardo tomará su descanso con el cabrito; y el leoncillo tomará hierba para comer con él becerro; y un niño pequeño será su guía.
[When he becomes king], wolves and lambs will live together [peacefully]; leopards, [instead of killing] baby goats, will lie down with them. [Similarly], calves and lions will eat food together; and a young child will take care of them.
7 Y la vaca y la osa serán amigos mientras sus pequeños duermen juntos.
Cows and bears will eat [together]; bear cubs and calves will lie down together. Lions will [not eat other animals]; [instead], they will eat hay like cows do.
8 Y el niño de pecho jugará por el agujero de la serpiente, y el niño mayor pondrá su mano en la grieta de la serpiente venenosa.
Babies will play [safely] near the holes where cobra snakes [live]; small children will [even] put their hands into nests of poisonous snakes, [and the snakes will not harm them].
9 No habrá causa de dolor ni destrucción en toda mi montaña sagrada: porque la tierra estará llena del conocimiento del Señor así como el mar está cubierto por las aguas.
No creatures will harm or kill other creatures on [Zion Hill], my holy hill; and the earth will [be filled with people who] know Yahweh like [SIM] the seas are full of water.
10 Y en ese día, los ojos de las naciones se volverán a la raíz de Isaí, que se alzará como la bandera de los pueblos; y su lugar de descanso será la gloria.
At that time, a descendant of King David will [hold up] a flag to signal to the people of all people-groups [that they should gather around him]; they will come to him to get his advice, and the place where he lives will be glorious.
11 Y en ese día, la mano del Señor se extenderá por segunda vez para recuperar al resto de su pueblo, desde Asiria y desde Egipto, y desde Patros, y desde Etiopía, y desde Elam, y desde Sinar, y de Hamat, y de las tierras marinas.
At that time, Yahweh will (reach out his hand/use his power) as he did long ago; he will enable those who had been (exiled from/forced to leave) Israel to return home, from Assyria, from northern Egypt, from southern Egypt, from Ethiopia, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath, and from all the distant countries near the sea.
12 Y pondrá una bandera como señal a las naciones, y reunirá a los de Israel que habían sido enviados, y a los errantes de Judá, de los cuatro extremos de la tierra.
Yahweh will raise his flag among [all] the people-groups, and he will gather together the people of Israel who had been exiled [long ago]. He will gather from very distant places [IDM] on the earth the people of Judah who [(had been scattered to/are living in) those places].
13 Y la envidia de Efraín desaparecerá, y los que causan problemas a Judá se acabarán; Efraín ya no tendrá más envidia de Judá, y se acabará el odio de Judá por Efraín.
[Then], the people of Israel and the people of Judah will not be jealous of each other [any longer], and they will no [longer] be enemies of each other.
14 Y se unirán para atacar a los filisteos en el oeste, y juntos tomarán los bienes de los hijos del este, su mano estará sobre Edom y Moab; y los hijos de Amón estarán bajo su gobierno.
Their [armies] will [join together to] attack the people of Philistia to the west. And together they will attack nations to the east; they will [defeat those nations and] take away all their valuable possessions. They will capture [the areas of] Edom and Moab, and the people of the Ammon people-group will be controlled/ruled by the people of Israel and Judah.
15 Y el Señor secará completamente la lengua del mar egipcio; y con su viento ardiente, su mano se extenderá sobre el río, y se dividirá en siete arroyos, para que los hombres puedan cruzarlo con sandalias en seco.
Yahweh will make a dry road through the sea near Egypt. And [it will be as though] he will wave his hand over the [Euphrates] River and send a strong wind to cause it to divide into seven streams, with the result that people will be able to walk across [those streams].
16 Habrá un camino para el resto de su pueblo desde Asiria; como lo hubo para Israel el día en que salió de la tierra de Egipto.
And because he will make a highway for his people who are living in Assyria, they will be able to return [to their own land], just like [long ago] he made a path for [the people of] Israel [so that they could go through the water] when they left Egypt.
