1 T he Word of the Lord came to me, saying,

De nuevo vino a mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

2 “ Son of man, make known to Jerusalem her hated sins.

Hijo de hombre, notifica a Jerusalén sus abominaciones,

3 T ell them, ‘This is what the Lord God says to Jerusalem: “Your beginning and your birth are from the land of the Canaanite. Your father was an Amorite and your mother was a Hittite.

y di: Así dice el Señor Jehová a Jerusalén: Tu origen y tu nacimiento es de la tierra de Canaán; tu padre fue un amorreo, y tu madre, una hetea.

4 O n the day you were born the cord between you and your mother was not cut. You were not washed with water to make you clean. You were not rubbed with salt or even covered with cloth.

Y en cuanto a tu nacimiento, el día que naciste no fue cortado tu ombligo, ni fuiste lavada con agua para limpiarte, ni salada con sal, ni fuiste envuelta con fajas.

5 N o one looked with pity on you or did any of these things for you out of loving-kindness. Instead you were thrown out into the open field, for you were hated on the day you were born.

No hubo ojo que se compadeciese de ti para hacerte algo de esto, teniendo compasión de ti; sino que fuiste arrojada al campo, con menosprecio de tu vida, en el día que naciste.

6 “ When I passed by you and saw you rolling about in your blood, I said to you in your blood, ‘Live!’ Yes, I said to you while you were in your blood, ‘Live!’

Y cuando yo pasé junto a ti, y te vi agitándote en tu sangre, te dije, cuando estabas en tus sangres: ¡Vive! Sí, te dije cuando estabas en tus sangres: ¡Vive!

7 I made you become many, like plants of the field. Then you grew up and became tall. You grew into a beautiful woman. You had breasts and your hair had grown. Yet you were not covered and your body could be seen.

Yo te hago crecer como la hierba del campo. Y creciste y te hiciste grande, y llegaste a ser muy hermosa; tus pechos se habían formado, y tu pelo había crecido; pero estabas desnuda y descubierta.

8 T hen I passed by you and saw that you were old enough for love. So I spread my clothing over you and covered your body. I gave you my promise and made an agreement with you so that you became Mine,” says the Lord God.

Y cuando pasé otra vez junto a ti, y te miré, y he aquí que tu tiempo era tiempo de amores, extendí mi manto sobre ti, y cubrí tu desnudez; y te di juramento y entré en pacto contigo, dice el Señor Jehová, y fuiste mía.

9 “ Then I washed you with water, washed the blood from you, and poured oil on you.

Te lavé con agua, te quité de encima la sangre, te ungí con aceite.

10 I dressed you with beautiful cloth, and put leather shoes on your feet. I dressed you with fine linen and covered you with silk.

Te vestí de valioso recamado, te calcé de piel de tejón, te ceñí de lino fino y te cubrí de seda.

11 I put on you objects of beauty. I put beautiful objects on your arms and around your neck.

Te atavié con adornos, y puse brazaletes en tus brazos y collar en tu cuello.

12 I put rings in your nose and in your ears, and a beautiful crown on your head.

Puse un anillo en tu nariz, pendientes en tus orejas, y una hermosa diadema en tu cabeza.

13 S o you were dressed with gold and silver. Your clothing was of fine linen, silk, and beautiful cloth. You ate fine flour, honey, and oil. So you were very beautiful, and you became a queen.

Así fuiste adornada de oro y de plata, y tu vestido era de lino fino, seda y recamado; comiste flor de harina de trigo, miel y aceite; y llegaste a ser extraordinariamente hermosa, y prosperaste hasta llegar a reinar.

14 Y our name became known among the nations because of your beauty. For it was perfect because of My shining-greatness which I had given to you,” says the Lord God.

Y adquiriste fama entre las naciones a causa de tu hermosura; porque era perfecta, a causa del esplendor que yo había puesto en ti, dice el Señor Jehová.

15 “ But you trusted in your beauty. Because your name was well-known, you acted like a woman who sells the use of her body. And you did sex sins with anyone who passed by.

Pero te envaneciste de tu hermosura, y te prostituiste a causa de tu renombre, y derramaste tus fornicaciones sobre cuantos pasaron; suya eras.

16 Y ou took some of your clothes of many colors and made for yourself places of worship. There you acted like a woman who sells the use of her body. Such things should never happen or come to pass.

Y tomaste de tus vestidos, y te hiciste lugares altos, decorados con diversos colores, y fornicaste sobre ellos; cosa semejante nunca había sucedido, ni sucederá más.

17 Y ou also took your objects of beauty made of My gold and silver, which I had given you. And you used them to make things that looked like men, that you might play with them as a woman who sells the use of her body.

Tomaste asimismo tus hermosas alhajas de oro y de plata que yo te había dado, y te hiciste imágenes de hombres y fornicaste con ellas;

18 T hen you took your beautiful cloth and covered them, and set My oil and My special perfume in front of them.

y tomaste tus vestidos de valioso recamado y las cubriste; y pusiste delante de ellas mi aceite y mi incienso.

19 Y ou also set in front of them My bread which I gave you, the fine flour, oil and honey I gave you to eat. You gave it all to them as a special perfume. So it was,” says the Lord God.

Mi pan también, que yo te había dado, la flor de la harina, el aceite y la miel, con que yo te mantuve, los pusiste delante de ellas para olor agradable; y así fue, dice el Señor Jehová.

20 “ You even took your sons and daughters whom you had given birth for Me, and gave them to the false gods to be destroyed. Were your sex sins too little?

Además de esto, tomaste tus hijos y tus hijas que habías dado a luz para mí, y los sacrificaste a ellas para que fuesen consumidos. ¿Eran cosa de poca monta tus fornicaciones,

21 Y ou killed My children and gave them as burnt gifts to false gods.

para que degollases también a mis hijos y los ofrecieras a aquellas imágenes, haciéndolos pasar por el fuego?

22 A nd in all your hated acts and sex sins you did not remember the days when you were young. You did not remember when you were without clothing or covering, and when you rolled about in your blood.

Y en medio de todas tus abominaciones y de tus fornicaciones no te has acordado de los días de tu juventud, cuando estabas desnuda y descubierta, y estabas revolviéndote en tu sangre.

23 “ It is bad for you!” says the Lord God. “After all your sinful acts,

Y sucedió que después de toda tu maldad (¡ay, ay de ti!, dice el Señor Jehová),

24 y ou built a place of worship for yourself, and a high place in every street.

te edificaste lugares altos, y te hiciste un altar idolátrico en todas las plazas.

25 Y ou built yourself a high place at the beginning of every street and made your beauty a hated thing. You gave yourself to anyone who passed by, to make your sex sins many.

En la cabecera de todo camino edificaste lugar alto, e hiciste abominable tu hermosura, ofreciéndote a cuantos pasaban, y multiplicando tus fornicaciones.

26 Y ou also gave the use of your body to the Egyptians, your neighbors who have much desire for sex sins. And you sinned many times to make Me angry.

Y fornicaste con los hijos de Egipto, tus vecinos, de cuerpos fornidos; y multiplicaste tus fornicaciones para provocarme.

27 S o I have raised My hand to punish you and have made your share smaller. I have given you over to the desire of those who hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, who were ashamed of your sinful actions.

Por tanto, he aquí que yo extendí contra ti mi mano, y disminuí tu provisión ordinaria, y te entregué a la voluntad de las hijas de los filisteos, que te aborrecen, las cuales se avergüenzan de tu camino deshonesto.

28 Y ou also gave the use of your body to the Assyrians because you had not had enough. Yes, you even gave the use of your body to them and still thought you had not had enough.

Fornicaste también con los asirios, por no haberte saciado; y fornicaste con ellos y tampoco te saciaste.

29 Y ou did many sex sins with Babylon, the land of those who trade. Yet even this was not enough for you.

Multiplicaste asimismo tu fornicación en la tierra de Canaán y de los caldeos, y tampoco con esto te saciaste.

30 “ How sinful your heart is,” says the Lord God, “that you do all these things, the actions of a sinful woman, and show no shame.

¡Cuán inconstante es tu corazón, dice el Señor Jehová, habiendo hecho todas estas cosas, obras propias de una ramera desvergonzada,

31 Y ou built your places of worship at the beginning of every street and made your high place at every crossing. But you were not like a woman who sells the use of her body, because you did not want pay.

edificando tus lugares altos a la cabecera de cada camino, y haciendo tus altares en todas las plazas! Y no fuiste semejante a la ramera que va buscando la paga,

32 Y ou are like a wife who is not faithful and has strangers instead of her husband!

sino como mujer adúltera, que en lugar de su marido recibe a ajenos.

33 M en give gifts to all women who sell the use of their body. But you give your gifts to all your lovers. You pay them to come to you from everywhere for your sex sins.

A todas las rameras les dan dones; mas tú diste tus dones a todos tus amantes; y les diste presentes, para que de todas partes se llegasen a ti en tus fornicaciones.

34 Y ou are different from other women in your sex sins. You go after men; they do not come to you. You pay men instead of them giving pay to you. Yes, you are different.” God Judges Jerusalem

Y ha sucedido contigo, en tus fornicaciones, lo contrario de las demás mujeres: porque nadie te solicitaba para fornicar; eras tú la que dabas paga, en lugar de recibirla; por esto has sido diferente.

35 S o, sinful woman, hear the Word of the Lord.

Por tanto, ramera, oye palabra de Jehová.

36 T he Lord God says, “Your shame was poured out and your clothing was taken off because of your sex sins with your lovers and with all your hated false gods. And you killed your children and gave them to false gods. Because of these things,

Así dice el Señor Jehová: Por cuanto han sido descubiertas tus desnudeces en tus fornicaciones, y tus vergüenzas han sido manifestadas a tus amantes, y a los ídolos de tus abominaciones, y por la sangre de tus hijos, los cuales les diste;

37 I will gather all your lovers who pleased you. I will gather all those whom you loved and all those whom you hated. I will gather them against you from every side, and take off your covering so that they may see all your shame.

por tanto, he aquí que yo reuniré a todos tus amantes con los cuales tomaste placer, y a todos los que amaste, con todos los que aborreciste; y los reuniré contra ti de todas partes y les descubriré tu desnudez, y ellos verán toda tu desnudez.

38 I will punish you as I punish women who are not faithful in marriage, or women who kill. I will do it in My anger and jealousy.

Y yo te aplicaré la sentencia de las adúlteras, y de las que derraman sangre; y traeré sobre ti sangre de ira y de celos.

39 A nd I will give you over to your lovers. They will tear down your places of worship and destroy your high places. They will take all of your clothes and your beautiful objects, and will leave you without any covering.

Y te entregaré en manos de ellos; y destruirán tus lugares altos, y derribarán tus altares, y te despojarán de tus ropas, se llevarán tus hermosas alhajas, y te dejarán desnuda y descubierta.

40 T hey will bring up a group of people against you, and they will kill you with stones and cut you to pieces with their swords.

Y harán subir contra ti muchedumbre de gente, y te apedrearán, y te atravesarán con sus espadas.

41 T hey will burn your houses with fire and punish you as many women watch. Then I will stop you from acting like a woman who sells the use of her body, and you will no longer pay your lovers.

Quemarán tus casas a fuego, y ejecutarán justicia en ti en presencia de muchas mujeres; y así haré que dejes de ser ramera, y que ceses de prodigar tus regalos de ramera.

42 T hen I will take away My anger from you, and My jealousy will leave you. I will be at peace, and will not be angry any more.

Y desahogaré mi ira sobre ti, y se apartará de ti mi celo, y descansaré y no me enojaré más.

43 Y ou have not remembered the days when you were young, but have made Me angry with all these things. So I will punish you for what you have done,” says the Lord God. “Did you not add these sex sins to all your other hated sins? More Sinful Than Samaria and Sodom

Por cuanto no te acordaste de los días de tu juventud, y me provocaste a ira en todo esto, por eso, he aquí que yo también traeré tu camino sobre tu cabeza, dice el Señor Jehová; y nunca se te ha ocurrido arrepentirte de tus abominaciones.

44 “ Every one who uses sayings will use this saying about you: ‘Like mother, like daughter.’

He aquí, todo el que usa de refranes te aplicará a ti el refrán que dice: Cual la madre, tal la hija.

45 Y ou are the daughter of your mother, who hated her husband and her children. You are also a sister of your sisters who hated their husbands and children. Your mother was a Hittite and your father was an Amorite.

Eres hija digna de tu madre, que aborreció a su marido y a sus hijos; y digna hermana de tus hermanas, que aborrecieron a sus maridos y a sus hijos; vuestra madre era una hetea, y vuestro padre un amorreo.

46 Y our older sister is Samaria, who lives north of you with her daughters. And your younger sister is Sodom, who lives south of you with her daughters.

Y tu hermana mayor es Samaria con sus hijas, que habita a tu izquierda; y tu hermana menor es Sodoma con sus hijas, la cual habita a tu derecha.

47 Y et you have walked in their ways and done their hated acts. As if that were too little, you acted worse in all your ways than they.

Ni aun anduviste en sus caminos, ni hiciste según sus abominaciones; sino que en muy corto espacio de tiempo, te corrompiste más que ellas en todos tus caminos.

48 A s I live,” says the Lord God, “your sister Sodom and her daughters have not done as you and your daughters have done.

Vivo yo, dice el Señor Jehová, que Sodoma tu hermana y sus hijas no han hecho como hiciste tú y tus hijas.

49 N ow this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters had pride, much food, and too much rest, but she did not help those who were poor and in need.

He aquí que esta fue la maldad de Sodoma tu hermana: soberbia, saciedad de pan, y abundancia de ociosidad tuvieron ella y sus hijas; y no fortaleció la mano del pobre, ni del desvalido.

50 T hey were proud and did hated sins in front of Me. So I took them away when I saw it.

Y se llenaron de soberbia, e hicieron abominación delante de mí, y cuando lo vi las quité de en medio.

51 S amaria has not done half of your sins. You have done more sins than they. So you have made your sisters look right and good by all the hated sins which you have done.

Y Samaria no cometió ni la mitad de tus pecados; pero tú multiplicaste tus abominaciones más que ellas, y has justificado a tus hermanas con todas las abominaciones que tú has hecho.

52 T ake your shame upon you, for you have made Me show favor to them in their punishment. Because of your sins in which you acted worse than they, they are more in the right than you. So then be ashamed and take your shame upon you, for you have made your sisters look right and good.

Tú también, que juzgaste a tus hermanas, lleva tu vergüenza; por los pecados que tú hiciste, más abominables que los de ellas, más justas son que tú; avergüénzate, pues, tú también, y lleva tu confusión, por cuanto has justificado a tus hermanas.

53 “ I will return them to their land, both Sodom and her daughters, and Samaria and her daughters. With them I will return you to your land.

Yo, pues, haré volver a sus cautivos, los cautivos de Sodoma y de sus hijas, y los cautivos de Samaria y de sus hijas, y haré volver los cautivos de tus cautiverios en medio de ellas,

54 T his is so you will take your shame upon you, and feel ashamed for all that you have done in becoming a comfort to them.

para que lleves tu confusión, y te avergüences de todo lo que has hecho, siendo tú motivo de consuelo para ellas.

55 Y our sisters, Sodom with her daughters and Samaria with her daughters, will return to the land they had before. And you with your daughters will return to your land also.

Y tus hermanas, Sodoma con sus hijas y Samaria con sus hijas, volverán a su primer estado; tú también y tus hijas volveréis a vuestro primer estado.

56 Y ou did not speak against your sister Sodom in the days of your pride,

No era tu hermana Sodoma digna de mención en tu boca en el tiempo de tus soberbias,

57 b efore your sinful acts were seen. Now you have become like her, an object of shame for the daughters of Edom and all her neighbors, and for the daughters of the Philistines. All those around you who hate you now look on you with shame.

antes que tu maldad fuese descubierta, como también ahora llevas tú la afrenta de las hijas de Siria y de todas las hijas de los filisteos, las cuales por todos lados te desprecian.

58 T he penalty of your sex sins and other hated sins has come upon you,” says the Lord.

Sufre tú el castigo de tu lujuria y de tus abominaciones, dice Jehová.

59 F or the Lord God says, “I will do with you as you have done, because you have hated your promise by breaking the agreement. An Agreement That Lasts Forever

Pues así dice el Señor Jehová: Yo haré contigo como tú hiciste, que menospreciaste el juramento al invalidar el pacto.

60 “ But I will remember My agreement which I made with you when you were young. And I will make an agreement with you that lasts forever.

No obstante, yo tendré memoria de mi pacto que concerté contigo en los días de tu juventud, y estableceré contigo un pacto sempiterno.

61 T hen you will remember your ways and be ashamed when you receive your sisters, both your older one and younger one. I will give them to you as daughters, but not because of your agreement with Me.

Entonces te acordarás de tus caminos y te avergonzarás, cuando recibas a tus hermanas, las mayores que tú y las menores que tú, las cuales yo te daré por hijas, mas no por tu pacto.

62 S o I will make My agreement with you, and you will know that I am the Lord.

Yo estableceré mi pacto contigo; y sabrás que yo soy Jehová;

63 T hen you will remember and be ashamed. You will never open your mouth again because of your shame, when I have forgiven you for all that you have done,” says the Lord God.

para que te acuerdes y te avergüences, y nunca más abras la boca, a causa de tu vergüenza; cuando yo te haya perdonado todo lo que hiciste, dice el Señor Jehová.
