1 V ino a mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

The word of the Lord came again to me, saying,

2 « Hijo de hombre, di al gobernante de Tiro: “Así ha dicho Jehová, el Señor: »”Tu corazón se ensoberbeció, y dijiste: ‘Yo soy un dios, y estoy sentado en el trono de dios, en medio de los mares’; pero tú eres hombre, y no Dios, y has puesto tu corazón como el corazón de un dios.

Son of man, say to the prince of Tyre, Thus says the Lord God: Because your heart is lifted up and you have said and thought, I am a god, I sit in the seat of the gods, in the heart of the seas; yet you are only man and not God, though you imagine yourself to be almost more than mortal with your mind as the mind of God;

3 ¿ Eres tú acaso más sabio que Daniel? ¿Acaso no hay secreto que te sea oculto?

Indeed, you are wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that is hidden from you;

4 C on tu sabiduría y prudencia has adquirido riquezas, has acumulado oro y plata en tus tesoros.

With your own wisdom and with your own understanding you have gotten you riches and power and have brought gold and silver into your treasuries;

5 C on la grandeza de tu sabiduría en tus tratos comerciales has multiplicado tus riquezas, y a causa de tus riquezas se ha ensoberbecido tu corazón.

By your great wisdom and by your traffic you have increased your riches and power, and your heart is proud and lifted up because of your wealth;

6 » ”Por tanto, así ha dicho Jehová, el Señor: »”Por cuanto pusiste tu corazón como el corazón de un dios,

Therefore thus says the Lord God: Because you have imagined your mind as the mind of God,

7 p or eso, he aquí yo traigo sobre ti extranjeros, los fuertes de las naciones, que desenvainarán sus espadas contra la hermosura de tu sabiduría y mancharán tu esplendor.

Behold therefore, I am bringing strangers upon you, the most terrible of the nations, and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they shall defile your splendor.

8 A l sepulcro te harán descender, y morirás con la muerte de los que mueren en medio de los mares.

They shall bring you down to the pit and you shall die the deaths of all the Tyrians that are slain in the heart of the seas.

9 ¿ Hablarás delante del que te mate, diciendo: ‘Yo soy Dios’? ¡Tú, en la mano de tu matador, eres un hombre y no un dios!

Will you still say, I am a god, before him who slays you? But you are only a man and no god in the hand of him who wounds and profanes you.

10 D e muerte de incircuncisos morirás a manos de extranjeros; porque yo he hablado, dice Jehová, el Señor.”»

You shall die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers, for I have spoken it, says the Lord God.

11 V ino a mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

Moreover, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

12 « Hijo de hombre, entona lamentaciones sobre el rey de Tiro, y dile: “Así ha dicho Jehová, el Señor: »”Tú eras el sello de la perfección, lleno de sabiduría, y de acabada hermosura.

Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre and say to him, Thus says the Lord God: You are the full measure and pattern of exactness, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.

13 E n Edén, en el huerto de Dios, estuviste. De toda piedra preciosa era tu vestidura: de cornerina, topacio, jaspe, crisólito, berilo y ónice; de zafiro, carbunclo, esmeralda y oro. ¡Los primores de tus tamboriles y flautas fueron preparados para ti en el día de tu creación!

You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone was your covering, the carnelian, topaz, jasper, chrysolite, beryl, onyx, sapphire, carbuncle, and emerald; and your settings and your sockets and engravings were wrought in gold. On the day that you were created they were prepared.

14 T ú, querubín grande, protector, yo te puse en el santo monte de Dios. Allí estuviste, y en medio de las piedras de fuego te paseabas.

You were the anointed cherub that covers with overshadowing, and I set you so. You were upon the holy mountain of God; you walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

15 P erfecto eras en todos tus caminos desde el día en que fuiste creado hasta que se halló en ti maldad.

You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created until iniquity and guilt were found in you.

16 A causa de tu intenso trato comercial, te llenaste de iniquidad y pecaste, por lo cual yo te eché del monte de Dios y te arrojé de entre las piedras del fuego, querubín protector.

Through the abundance of your commerce you were filled with lawlessness and violence, and you sinned; therefore I cast you out as a profane thing from the mountain of God and the guardian cherub drove you out from the midst of the stones of fire.

17 S e enalteció tu corazón a causa de tu hermosura, corrompiste tu sabiduría a causa de tu esplendor; yo te arrojaré por tierra, y delante de los reyes te pondré por espectáculo.

Your heart was proud and lifted up because of your beauty; you corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor. I cast you to the ground; I lay you before kings, that they might gaze at you.

18 C on tus muchas maldades y con la iniquidad de tus tratos comerciales profanaste tu santuario; yo, pues, saqué fuego de en medio de ti, el cual te consumió, y te puse en ceniza sobre la tierra ante los ojos de todos los que te miran.

You have profaned your sanctuaries by the multitude of your iniquities and the enormity of your guilt, by the unrighteousness of your trade. Therefore I have brought forth a fire from your midst; it has consumed you, and I have reduced you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all who looked at you.

19 T odos los que te conocieron de entre los pueblos se quedarán atónitos por causa tuya; serás objeto de espanto, y para siempre dejarás de ser.”» Profecía contra Sidón

All who know you among the people are astonished and appalled at you; you have come to a horrible end and shall never return to being.

20 V ino a mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

21 « Hijo de hombre, vuelve tu rostro hacia Sidón y profetiza contra ella.

Son of man, set your face toward Sidon and prophesy against her.

22 D irás: “Así ha dicho Jehová, el Señor: »”He aquí yo estoy contra ti, Sidón, y en medio de ti seré glorificado. Y sabrán que yo soy Jehová cuando ejecute en ella juicios y en ella me santifique.

And say, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, O Sidon, and I will show forth My glory and be glorified in the midst of you. And they shall know (understand and realize) that I am the Lord when I execute judgments and punishments in her, and am set apart and separated and My holiness is manifested in her.

23 E nviaré a ella peste y sangre en sus calles, y caerán muertos en medio de ella, con espada contra ella por todos lados. Y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.

For I will send pestilence into her and blood into her streets, and the wounded shall be judged and fall by the sword in the midst of her on every side, and they shall know (understand and realize) that I am the Lord.

24 » ”Nunca más será a la casa de Israel una espina desgarradora ni un aguijón que le cause dolor en medio de cuantos la rodean y la menosprecian. Y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.

And there shall be no more a brier to prick the house of Israel or a hurting thorn of all those around them who have treated them with contempt, and they shall know (understand and realize) that I am the Lord God.

25 » ”Así ha dicho Jehová, el Señor: Cuando recoja a la casa de Israel de los pueblos entre los cuales está esparcida, entonces me santificaré en ellos ante los ojos de las naciones, y habitarán en su tierra, la cual di a mi siervo Jacob.

Thus says the Lord God: When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and I shall be set apart and separated and My holiness made apparent in them in the sight of the nations, then shall they dwell in their own land which I gave to My servant Jacob.

26 H abitarán en ella seguros; edificarán casas y plantarán viñas. Vivirán confiadamente, cuando yo haga juicios en todos los que los despojan en sus alrededores. Y sabrán que yo soy Jehová, su Dios.”»

And they shall dwell safely in it and shall build houses and plant vineyards; yes, they shall dwell securely and with confidence when I have executed judgments and punishments upon all those round about them who have despised and trodden upon them and pushed them away, and they shall know (understand and realize) that I am the Lord their God.
