1Pero no habrá siempre oscuridad para la que está ahora en angustia. Como en tiempos pasados hizo que fuera despreciada la tierra de Zabulón y la tierra de Neftalí, así en los venideros la hará gloriosa por el camino del mar, al otro lado del Jordán, en Galilea de los gentiles.2El pueblo que andaba en tinieblas verá gran luz; A los que moraban en tierra de sombra de muerte, Les resplandecerá la luz.3Multiplicaste la alegría, Aumentaste el gozo; Se alegrarán delante de ti como se alegran en la siega, Como se gozan cuando reparten despojos.4Porque el yugo de su carga y la vara de su hombro, Y el cetro de su opresor, Los quebraste, como en el día de Madián.5Porque toda bota que pisa con estrépito Y toda capa empapada en sangre, Serán para quemar, pasto del fuego.6Porque un Niño nos es nacido, Hijo nos es dado; El dominio estará sobre su hombro, Y se llamará su nombre: Admirable, Consejero, Dios Fuerte, Padre Eterno, Príncipe de Paz.7Lo dilatado de su principado y la paz no tendrán fin Sobre el trono de David y sobre su reino, Para disponerlo y afirmarlo con la justicia y el derecho Desde ahora y para siempre. ¡El celo de YHVH Sebaot hará esto!
Contra Israel
8Adonay ha enviado un oráculo contra Jacob, Y éste ha caído en Israel.9Lo entenderá el pueblo entero, Efraín y los habitantes de Samaria, Que van diciendo con soberbia y altivez de corazón:10¿Los ladrillos se cayeron? ¡Pues con piedras labradas volveremos a edificar! ¿Los sicómoros fueron talados? ¡Pues con cedros los reemplazaremos!11Por tanto YHVH levanta contra ellos al adversario, al de Rezín, E incita a sus enemigos:12A los sirios desde el levante Y a los filisteos desde el poniente, Para que a boca llena devoren a Israel; Y con todo, no se aplaca su ira: Su mano sigue extendida.13Pero el pueblo no se vuelve al que lo castiga, Ni busca a YHVH Sebaot.14Por tanto, YHVH cortará de Israel cabeza y cola, Palma y junco en un mismo día.15El anciano honorable es la cabeza, El profeta embaucador la cola.16Los que guían a este pueblo lo extravían, Y los que se dejan guiar son destruidos.17Por tanto, Adonay no se compadecerá de sus jóvenes, Ni tendrá compasión de sus huérfanos y de sus viudas; Porque todos son impíos y malvados, Y toda boca habla infamias. Y con todo, no se aplaca su ira: Su mano sigue extendida.18¡Sí!, la maldad arderá como fuego, Devorará las zarzas y los espinos, Encenderá la espesura del bosque, Y se elevará en densa humareda.19¡Por la ira de YHVH Sebaot el país se tambalea, Y el pueblo es pasto del fuego!20Cada uno devora la carne de su prójimo Y ninguno perdona a su hermano. Devora a diestra, y sigue con hambre, Devora a siniestra, pero no se harta.21Manasés contra Efraín, Y Efraín contra Manasés, Y ambos se alzan contra Judá; Y con todo, no se aplaca su ira: Su mano sigue extendida.
King James Version
1Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations.2The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.3Thou hast multiplied the nation, and not increased the joy: they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.4For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian.5For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire.6For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.7Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.8The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.9And all the people shall know, even Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart,10The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars.11Therefore the LORD shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and join his enemies together;12The Syrians before, and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.13For the people turneth not unto him that smiteth them, neither do they seek the LORD of hosts.14Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day.15The ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.16For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.17Therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one is an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.18For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke.19Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother.20And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm:21Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh: and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
