1 J ehová, tú eres mi Dios; te exaltaré, alabaré tu nombre, porque has hecho maravillas; tus designios antiguos son perfecta fidelidad.

O Lord, You are my God. I will praise You. I will give thanks to Your name. For You have been faithful to do great things, plans that You made long ago.

2 P orque convertiste la ciudad en un montón; la ciudad fortificada, en ruina; el alcázar de los extraños, para que no sea ciudad, ni nunca jamás sea reedificado.

For You have laid waste a city. You have destroyed a strong city. The beautiful house of strangers is a city no more. And it will never be built again.

3 P or esto te dará gloria un pueblo fuerte, te temerá una ciudad de gentes terribles.

So strong people will honor You. Cities of nations that show no pity will fear You.

4 P orque fuiste fortaleza para el pobre, fortaleza para el menesteroso en su aflicción, refugio contra el turbión, sombra contra el calor; porque el ímpetu de los violentos es como un turbión contra el muro.

For You have been a strong-place for those who could not help themselves and for those in need because of much trouble. You have been a safe place from the storm and a shadow from the heat. For the breath of the one who shows no pity is like a storm against a wall.

5 C omo el calor en lugar seco, así silenciarás el estrépito de los extranjeros; y como el calor debajo de una nube acallarás la canción de los tiranos.

Like heat in a dry place, You quiet the noise of the strangers. Like heat by the shadow of a cloud, the song of the one who shows no pity is made quiet. A Supper for All People

6 Y Jehová de los ejércitos hará en este monte a todos los pueblos banquete de manjares suculentos, banquete de vinos refinados, de gruesos tuétanos y de vinos purificados.

On this mountain the Lord of All will make a supper of good things ready for all people. It will be a supper of good wine, of the best foods, and of fine wine.

7 Y destruirá en este monte la cubierta con que están cubiertos todos los pueblos, y el velo que cubre a todas las naciones.

And on this mountain He will destroy the covering which is over all people, the covering which is spread over all nations.

8 D estruirá a la muerte para siempre; y enjugará Jehová el Señor las lágrimas de todos los rostros; y quitará la afrenta de su pueblo de sobre toda la tierra; porque Jehová ha hablado.

He will take away death for all time. The Lord God will dry tears from all faces. He will take away the shame of His people from all the earth. For the Lord has spoken.

9 Y se dirá en aquel día: He aquí, éste es nuestro Dios, le hemos esperado para que nos salvase; éste es Jehová a quien hemos esperado; nos gozaremos y nos alegraremos en su salvación.

It will be said in that day, “See, this is our God. We have waited for Him, that He might save us. This is the Lord for Whom we have waited. Let us be glad and full of joy because He saves us.” Moab Will Be Punished

10 P orque la mano de Jehová reposará en este monte; pero Moab será hollado en su mismo sitio, como es hollada la paja en el muladar.

For the hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain. And Moab will be crushed in his place, as straw is crushed down in animal waste.

11 Y cuando extienda sus manos por en medio de él, como las extiende el nadador para nadar, abatirá su soberbia y la destreza de sus manos;

Moab will spread out his hands in it, as a man spreads out his hands to swim. But the Lord will put his pride to shame, together with the sinful work of his hands.

12 y abatirá la fortificación de tus altos muros; la humillará y la echará a tierra, hasta el polvo.

And the Lord will bring down your high walls built for war and lay them low. He will throw them to the ground, even to the dust.
