Deuteronomio 7
La Biblia de las Américas

Advertencia contra la idolatría

7 (A)Cuando el Señor tu Dios te haya introducido en la tierra donde vas a entrar para poseerla y haya echado de delante de ti a muchas naciones: los hititas, los gergeseos, los amorreos, los cananeos, los ferezeos, los heveos y los jebuseos, siete naciones(B) más grandes y más poderosas que tú, 2 y cuando el Señor tu Dios los haya entregado delante de ti, y los hayas derrotado[a], los destruirás por completo[b](C). No harás alianza con ellos(D) ni te apiadarás de ellos(E). 3 Y no contraerás matrimonio con ellos; no darás tus hijas[c] a sus hijos[d], ni tomarás sus hijas[e] para tus hijos[f](F). 4 Porque ellos apartarán[g] a tus hijos[h] de seguirme para servir a otros dioses; entonces la ira del Señor se encenderá contra ti, y Él pronto te destruirá(G). 5 Mas así haréis con ellos: derribaréis sus altares, destruiréis sus pilares sagrados, y cortaréis sus imágenes de Asera[i], y quemaréis a fuego sus imágenes talladas(H).

Un pueblo santo para el Señor

6 Porque tú eres pueblo santo para el Señor tu Dios(I); el Señor tu Dios te ha escogido para ser pueblo suyo[j] de entre todos los pueblos que están sobre la faz de la tierra(J). 7 El Señor no puso su amor en vosotros ni os escogió(K) por ser vosotros más numerosos que otro pueblo, pues erais el más pequeño de todos los pueblos; 8 mas porque el Señor os amó y guardó el juramento que hizo a vuestros padres(L), el Señor os sacó con mano fuerte y os redimió de casa de servidumbre[k], de la mano de Faraón, rey de Egipto(M). 9 Reconoce, pues, que el Señor tu Dios es Dios(N), el Dios fiel(O), que guarda su[l] pacto y su[m] misericordia hasta mil generaciones con aquellos que le aman y guardan sus mandamientos(P); 10 pero al que le odia, le da el pago en su misma cara, destruyéndolo; y no se tarda en castigar al que le odia, en su misma cara le dará el pago(Q). 11 Guarda, por tanto, el mandamiento y los estatutos y los decretos que yo te mando hoy, para cumplirlos.

Bendiciones de la obediencia

12 (R)Y sucederá que porque escuchas estos decretos y los guardas y los cumples, el Señor tu Dios guardará su[n] pacto contigo y su[o] misericordia que juró a tus padres. 13 Y te amará(S), te bendecirá y te multiplicará(T); también bendecirá el fruto de tu vientre y el fruto de tu tierra, tu cereal, tu mosto, tu aceite, el aumento de tu ganado y las crías de tu rebaño en la tierra que Él juró a tus padres que te daría. 14 Bendito serás más que todos los pueblos; no habrá varón ni hembra estéril en ti(U), ni en tu ganado. 15 Y el Señor apartará de ti toda enfermedad; y no pondrá sobre ti ninguna de las enfermedades malignas de Egipto que has conocido(V), sino que las pondrá sobre los que te odian. 16 Y destruirás[p] a todos los pueblos que el Señor tu Dios te entregue; tu ojo no tendrá piedad de ellos; tampoco servirás a sus dioses(W), porque esto sería un tropiezo[q] para ti(X).

17 Si dijeras en tu corazón: «Estas naciones son más poderosas que yo, ¿cómo podré desposeerlas(Y)?», 18 no tengas temor de ellas; recuerda bien lo que el Señor tu Dios hizo a Faraón y a todo Egipto(Z): 19 las grandes pruebas que tus ojos vieron, las señales y maravillas, y la mano poderosa y el brazo extendido con el cual el Señor tu Dios te sacó(AA). Así el Señor tu Dios hará con todos los pueblos a los cuales temes. 20 Además, el Señor tu Dios enviará la avispa contra ellos(AB), hasta que perezcan los que queden y se escondan de ti. 21 No te espantes de[r] ellos, porque el Señor tu Dios está en medio de ti(AC), Dios grande y temible(AD). 22 Y el Señor tu Dios echará estas naciones de delante de ti poco a poco; no podrás acabar con ellas rápidamente, no sea que las bestias del campo lleguen a ser demasiado numerosas para ti(AE). 23 Pero el Señor tu Dios las entregará delante de ti, y producirá entre ellas[s] gran confusión hasta que perezcan(AF). 24 Y entregará en tus manos a sus reyes(AG) de modo que harás perecer sus nombres de debajo del cielo; ningún hombre podrá hacerte frente hasta que tú los hayas destruido(AH). 25 Las esculturas[t] de sus dioses quemarás a fuego(AI); no codiciarás la plata o el oro que las recubren(AJ), ni lo tomarás para ti(AK), no sea que por ello caigas en un lazo, porque es abominación al Señor tu Dios(AL). 26 Y no traerás cosa abominable a tu casa, pues serás anatema como ella; ciertamente la aborrecerás y la abominarás, pues es anatema(AM).

Deuteronomy 7
New King James Version

A Chosen People(A)

7 “When the Lord your God brings you into the land which you go to (B)possess, and has cast out many (C)nations before you, (D)the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than you, 2 and when the Lord your God delivers (E)them over to you, you shall conquer them and utterly destroy them. (F)You shall make no covenant with them nor show mercy to them. 3 (G)Nor shall you make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to their son, nor take their daughter for your son. 4 For they will turn your sons away from following Me, to serve other gods; (H)so the anger of the Lord will be aroused against you and destroy you suddenly. 5 But thus you shall deal with them: you shall (I)destroy their altars, and break down their sacred pillars, and cut down their [a]wooden images, and burn their carved images with fire.

6 “For you are a [b]holy people to the Lord your God; (J)the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth. 7 The Lord did not set His (K)love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any other people, for you were (L)the least of all peoples; 8 but (M)because the Lord loves you, and because He would keep (N)the oath which He swore to your fathers, (O)the Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of [c]bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

9 “Therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God, (P)the faithful God (Q)who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments; 10 and He repays those who hate Him to their face, to destroy them. He will not [d]be (R)slack with him who hates Him; He will repay him to his face. 11 Therefore you shall keep the commandment, the statutes, and the judgments which I command you today, to observe them.

Blessings of Obedience(S)

12 “Then it shall come to pass, because you listen to these judgments, and keep and do them, that the Lord your God will keep with you the covenant and the mercy which He swore to your fathers. 13 And He will (T)love you and bless you and [e]multiply you; (U)He will also bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your land, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flock, in the land of which He [f]swore to your fathers to give you. 14 You shall be blessed above all peoples; there shall not be a male or female (V)barren among you or among your livestock. 15 And the Lord will take away from you all sickness, and will afflict you with none of the (W)terrible diseases of Egypt which you have known, but will lay them on all those who hate you. 16 Also you shall [g]destroy all the peoples whom the Lord your God delivers over to you; your eye shall have no pity on them; nor shall you serve their gods, for that will (X)be a snare to you.

17 “If you should say in your heart, ‘These nations are greater than I; how can I dispossess them?’— 18 you shall not be afraid of them, but you shall (Y)remember well what the Lord your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt: 19 (Z)the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs and the wonders, the mighty hand and the outstretched arm, by which the Lord your God brought you out. So shall the Lord your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid. 20 (AA)Moreover the Lord your God will send the hornet among them until those who are left, who hide themselves from you, are destroyed. 21 You shall not be terrified of them; for the Lord your God, the great and awesome God, is among you. 22 And the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you (AB)little by little; you will be unable to [h]destroy them at once, lest the beasts of the field become too numerous for you. 23 But the Lord your God will deliver them over to you, and will inflict defeat upon them until they are destroyed. 24 And (AC)He will deliver their kings into your hand, and you will destroy their name from under heaven; (AD)no one shall be able to stand [i]against you until you have destroyed them. 25 You shall burn the carved images of their gods with fire; you shall not (AE)covet[j] the silver or gold that is on them, nor take it for yourselves, lest you be snared by it; for it is an abomination to the Lord your God. 26 Nor shall you bring an abomination into your house, lest you be doomed to destruction like it. You shall utterly detest it and utterly abhor it, (AF)for it is an [k]accursed thing.

Devote the Nations to Destruction

7 “(A)When Yahweh your God brings you into the land where you are entering to possess it, and He clears away many nations before you, the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, (B)seven nations more numerous and stronger than you, 2 and when Yahweh your God gives them over before you and you strike them down, (C)then you shall devote them to destruction. (D)You shall cut no covenant with them (E)and show no favor to them. 3 Furthermore, (F)you shall not intermarry with them; you shall not give your [a]daughters to [b]their sons, nor shall you take [c]their daughters for your [d]sons. 4 For [e]they will turn your [f]sons away from [g]following Me, and they will serve other gods; then the anger of Yahweh will be kindled against you, and (G)He will quickly destroy you. 5 But thus you shall do to them: (H)you shall tear down their altars and shatter their sacred pillars and cut their [h]Asherim in pieces and burn their graven images with fire. 6 For you are (I)a holy people to Yahweh your God; Yahweh your God has chosen you to be (J)a people for His [i]own treasured possession out of all the peoples who are on the face of the [j]earth.

7 “(K)Yahweh did not set His affection on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any of the peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples, 8 but because Yahweh loved you and kept the (L)oath which He swore to your fathers, (M)Yahweh brought you out with a strong hand and redeemed you from the house of [k]slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. 9 You shall know therefore that Yahweh your God, (N)He is God, (O)the faithful God, (P)who keeps [l]His covenant and [m]His lovingkindness to a thousand generations with those who (Q)love Him and keep His commandments; 10 but (R)repays those who hate Him to [n]their faces, to make [o]them perish; He will not delay [p]with him who hates Him, He will repay him to his face. 11 Therefore, you shall keep the commandment and the statutes and the judgments which I am commanding you today, to do them.

Yahweh’s Covenant Blessings

12 “(S)Then it will be, because you listen to these judgments and keep and do them, that Yahweh your God will keep with you [q]His covenant and [r]His lovingkindness which He swore to your fathers. 13 And He will (T)love you and bless you and (U)multiply you; He will also bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your herd and the young of your flock, [s]in the land which He swore to your fathers to give you. 14 You shall be blessed above all peoples; there will be no male or female (V)barren among you or among your cattle. 15 (W)And Yahweh will take away from you all sickness; and He will not put on you any of the harmful diseases of Egypt which you have known, but He will give them to all who hate you. 16 And you shall consume all the peoples whom Yahweh your God will give over to you; (X)your eye shall not pity them, nor shall you serve their gods, for that would be (Y)a snare to you.

17 “If you should say in your heart, ‘These nations are more numerous than I; how can I (Z)dispossess them?’ 18 you shall not be afraid of them; you shall well (AA)remember what Yahweh your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt: 19 (AB)the great trials which your eyes saw and the signs and the wonders and the mighty hand and the outstretched arm by which Yahweh your God brought you out. So shall Yahweh your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid. 20 Moreover, Yahweh your God will send (AC)the hornet against them until those who remain and hide themselves from you perish. 21 You shall not dread [t]them, for (AD)Yahweh your God is in your midst, (AE)a great and fearsome God. 22 (AF)And Yahweh your God will clear away these nations before you little by little; you will not be able to put an end to them quickly, lest the [u]wild beasts become too numerous for you. 23 (AG)But Yahweh your God will give them over before you and will [v]throw them into great confusion until they are destroyed. 24 (AH)And He will give their kings into your hand so that you will make their name perish from under heaven; (AI)no man will be able to stand before you until you have destroyed them. 25 The graven images of their gods you are to (AJ)burn with fire; you shall (AK)not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourselves, lest you be (AL)snared by it, for it is an (AM)abomination to Yahweh your God. 26 And you shall not bring an abomination into your house and become devoted to (AN)destruction like it; you shall utterly detest it, and you shall utterly abhor it, for it is devoted to destruction.
