1 W ho is this Who comes from Edom, with dark red clothing from Bozrah? Who is this One Who is beautiful in His clothing, walking in the greatness of His strength? “It is I, Who speaks what is right and good, powerful to save.”

¿QUIÉN es éste que viene de Edom, de Bosra con vestidos bermejos? ¿éste hermoso en su vestido, que marcha en la grandeza de su poder? Yo, el que hablo en justicia, grande para salvar.

2 W hy is Your clothing red? Why is Your clothing like his who crushes the grapes?

¿Por qué es bermejo tu vestido, y tus ropas como del que ha pisado en lagar?

3 “ I have crushed the grapes alone. From the people there was no man with Me. I crushed them in My anger. I was angry as I stepped on them. And their life blood is on My clothing, and all My clothing is red.

Pisado he yo solo el lagar, y de los pueblos nadie fué conmigo: pisélos con mi ira, y hollélos con mi furor; y su sangre salpicó mis vestidos, y ensucié todas mis ropas.

4 F or the day of punishment was in My heart. And My year to save My people and make them free has come.

Porque el día de la venganza está en mi corazón, y el año de mis redimidos es venido.

5 I looked, and there was no one to help. I wondered that there was no one to help. So My own arm brought saving power to Me, and My anger helped Me.

Y miré y no había quien ayudará, y maravilléme que no hubiera quien sustentase: y salvóme mi brazo, y sostúvome mi ira.

6 I crushed the nations in My anger and I made them drunk in My anger. I poured out their life blood on the earth.” Israel Remembers God’s Loving-Kindness

Y con mi ira hollé los pueblos, y embriaguélos de mi furor, y derribé á tierra su fortaleza.

7 I will tell of the loving-kindness of the Lord, and praise Him for all He has done. I will tell of all the Lord has given us, the great goodness He has shown to the family of Israel and given to them because of His loving-pity and His great loving-kindness.

De las misericordias de Jehová haré memoria, de las alabanzas de Jehová, conforme á todo lo que Jehová nos ha dado, y de la grandeza de su beneficencia hacia la casa de Israel, que les ha hecho según sus misericordias, y según la multitud de sus miseraciones.

8 F or He said, “For sure they are My people, sons who will not be false to Me.” So He saved them from the punishment of sin.

Porque dijo: Ciertamente mi pueblo son, hijos que no mienten; y fué su Salvador.

9 H e suffered with them in all their troubles, and the angel of the Lord saved them. In His loving-kindness He paid the price and made them free. He lifted them up and carried them all the days of long ago.

En toda angustia de ellos él fué angustiado, y el ángel de su faz los salvó: en su amor y en su clemencia los redimió, y los trajo, y los levantó todos los días del siglo.

10 B ut they turned against Him and made His Holy Spirit have sorrow. So He turned Himself and hated them, and fought against them.

Mas ellos fueron rebeldes, é hicieron enojar su espíritu santo; por lo cual se les volvió enemigo, y él mismo peleó contra ellos.

11 T hen His people remembered the days long ago, the days of Moses. Where is He Who brought them through the sea with the shepherd of His flock? Where is He Who put His Holy Spirit among them?

Empero acordóse de los días antiguos, de Moisés y de su pueblo, diciendo: ¿Dónde está el que les hizo subir de la mar con el pastor de su rebaño? ¿dónde el que puso en medio de él su espíritu santo?

12 W here is He Who caused His great arm to be at the right hand of Moses? Where is He Who divided the waters in front of them to make for Himself a name that lasts forever.

¿El que los guió por la diestra de Moisés con el brazo de su gloria; el que rompió las aguas delante de ellos, haciéndose así nombre perpetuo?

13 W ho led them through the sea? Like a horse in the desert, they did not lose their step.

¿El que los condujo por los abismos, como un caballo por el desierto, sin que tropezaran?

14 L ike cattle that go down into the valley, the Spirit of the Lord gave them rest. So You led Your people, to make for Yourself a great and honored name. A Prayer for Help

El espíritu de Jehová los pastoreó, como á una bestia que desciende al valle; así pastoreaste tu pueblo, para hacerte nombre glorioso.

15 L ook down from heaven, and see from Your holy and beautiful house. Where are Your strong desires and Your powerful works? Your kindness and Your loving-pity are kept from me.

Mira desde el cielo, y contempla desde la morada de tu santidad y de tu gloria: ¿dónde está tu celo, y tu fortaleza, la conmoción de tus entrañas y de tus miseraciones para conmigo? ¿hanse estrechado?

16 F or You are our Father. Even though Abraham does not know us, and Israel does not see who we are, You, O Lord, are our Father. The One Who bought us and made us free from long ago is Your name.

Tú empero eres nuestro padre, si bien Abraham nos ignora, é Israel no nos conoce: tú, oh Jehová, eres nuestro padre; nuestro Redentor perpetuo es tu nombre.

17 O Lord, why do You make us turn aside from Your ways and make our hearts hard so we do not fear You? Return because of Your servants, the families of Your promised land.

¿Por qué, oh Jehová, nos has hecho errar de tus caminos, y endureciste nuestro corazón á tu temor? Vuélvete por amor de tus siervos, por las tribus de tu heredad.

18 Y our holy people kept Your holy house for a little while. But those who hate us have broken it under their feet.

Por poco tiempo lo poseyó el pueblo de tu santidad: nuestros enemigos han hollado tu santuario.

19 W e have become like those over whom You have never ruled, like those who were not called by Your name.

Hemos venido á ser como aquellos de quienes nunca te enseñoreaste, sobre los cuales nunca fué llamado tu nombre.
