Profecía sobre Babilonia
13 Oráculo[a] sobre[b](A) Babilonia(B) que tuvo en visión Isaías, hijo de Amoz(C).
2 Levanten estandarte(D) sobre la colina pelada[c](E),
Alcen a ellos la voz,
Agiten la mano(F) para que entren por las puertas de los nobles(G).
3 Yo he dado órdenes a Mis consagrados,
También he llamado a Mis guerreros(H),
A los que se regocijan de Mi gloria,
Para ejecutar Mi ira.
4 ¡Se oye ruido de tumulto en los montes,
Como de mucha gente!
¡Ruido de estruendo de reinos,
De naciones reunidas(I)!
El Señor de los ejércitos pasa revista al ejército para la batalla.
5 Vienen de una tierra lejana,
De los más lejanos horizontes[d](J),
El Señor y los instrumentos de Su indignación(K),
Para destruir toda la tierra(L).
6 Giman, porque cerca está el día del Señor(M);
Vendrá como destrucción del Todopoderoso[e](N).
7 Por tanto, todas las manos se debilitarán(O),
El corazón de todo hombre desfallecerá[f](P).
8 Todos se aterrarán(Q);
Dolores y angustias se apoderarán de ellos,
Como mujer de parto se retorcerán(R);
Se mirarán el uno al otro con asombro,
Rostros en llamas serán sus rostros.
9 Miren, el día del Señor viene(S),
Cruel, con furia y ardiente ira,
Para convertir en desolación la tierra
Y exterminar de ella a sus pecadores.
10 Pues las estrellas del cielo y sus constelaciones
No destellarán su luz.
Se oscurecerá el sol al salir,
Y la luna no irradiará su luz(T).
11 Castigaré al mundo por su maldad(U)
Y a los impíos por su iniquidad(V).
También pondré fin a la arrogancia de los soberbios(W),
Y abatiré el orgullo(X) de los despiadados[g](Y).
12 Haré al mortal más escaso[h](Z) que el oro puro,
Y a la humanidad más escasa que el oro de Ofir(AA).
13 Por tanto, haré estremecer los cielos(AB),
Y la tierra será removida de su lugar(AC)
Ante la furia del Señor de los ejércitos,
En el día de Su ardiente ira(AD).
14 Y sucederá que, como gacela perseguida
O como ovejas que nadie reúne(AE),
Cada uno volverá a su propio pueblo,
Y cada uno huirá a su propia tierra.
15 Cualquiera que sea hallado será traspasado,
Y cualquiera que sea capturado caerá a espada(AF).
16 También sus pequeños serán estrellados
Delante de sus ojos(AG);
Serán saqueadas sus casas
Y violadas sus mujeres.
17 ¶Voy a provocar a los medos contra ellos(AH),
Que no estiman la plata ni se deleitan en el oro(AI).
18 Con sus arcos barrerán[i] a los jóvenes,
No tendrán compasión ni aun del fruto del vientre,
Tampoco de los niños[j] tendrán piedad sus ojos(AJ).
19 Y Babilonia, hermosura de los reinos, gloria del orgullo de los caldeos(AK),
Será como cuando Dios destruyó a Sodoma y a Gomorra(AL).
20 Nunca más será poblada ni habitada de generación en generación(AM).
No pondrá tienda allí el árabe,
Ni los pastores harán descansar allí sus rebaños(AN);
21 Sino que allí descansarán los moradores del desierto,
Y sus casas estarán llenas de búhos[k].
También habitarán allí los avestruces, y allí brincarán las cabras peludas[l](AO).
22 En sus torres fortificadas aullarán las hienas[m]
Y en sus lujosos palacios los chacales(AP).
Está próximo a llegar su tiempo,
Y sus días no se prolongarán.

Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Ang Mensahe tungkol sa Babilonia
13 Ito ang mensahe tungkol sa Babilonia na ipinahayag ng Panginoon kay Isaias na anak ni Amoz:
2 Magtaas kayo ng isang bandila roon sa tuktok ng bundok na walang puno. Pagkatapos, sumigaw kayo nang malakas sa mga sundalo at senyasan ninyo sila para salakayin at pasukin ang lungsod ng mga kilala at makapangyarihang tao. 3 Inutusan ko na ang mga itinalaga kong sundalo na magpaparusa sa mga taong kinapopootan ko. Ang mga sundalo na itoʼy natutuwa at umaasang isasagawa ko ang parusang ito.
4 Pakinggan nʼyo ang ingay ng napakaraming tao sa mga bundok. Pakinggan nʼyo ang ingay ng mga kaharian at mga bansang nagtitipon. Tinitipon ng Panginoong Makapangyarihan ang mga sundalo niya para sa digmaan. 5 Nanggaling sila sa malalayong lugar. Wawasakin ng Panginoon at ng mga sundalo niya ang buong lupain.
6 Umiyak kayo, dahil malapit na ang araw ng Panginoon, ang araw ng pagwawasak ng Makapangyarihang Dios. 7 Sa araw na iyon, manlulupaypay ang lahat ng tao. Ang bawat isaʼy masisiraan ng loob, 8 at manginginig sa takot. Madadama nila ang labis na paghihirap katulad ng paghihirap ng isang babaeng nanganganak. Magtitinginan sila sa isaʼt isa at mamumula ang mga mukha nila sa hiya. 9 Makinig kayo! Darating na ang araw ng Panginoon, ang araw ng kalupitan at matinding galit. Wawasakin ang lupain hanggang sa hindi na matirhan, at ang mga makasalanang naroon ay lilipulin. 10 Hindi na magniningning ang mga bituin. Sisikat ang araw pero madilim pa rin, at ang buwan ay hindi na rin magbibigay ng liwanag.
11 Sinabi ng Panginoon, “Parurusahan ko ang mundo dahil sa kasamaan nito. Parurusahan ko ang mga makasalanan dahil sa kanilang kasalanan. Wawakasan ko ang kahambugan ng mayayabang. Patitigilin ko ang pagmamataas ng mga taong malupit. 12 Kaunti lang ang matitirang tao, kaya mas mahirap silang hanapin kaysa sa dalisay na gintong galing sa Ofir. 13 Yayanigin ko ang langit at ang lupa. Ako, ang Panginoong Makapangyarihan ay gagawin ito sa araw na ipapakita ko ang matindi kong galit.”
14 Ang mga dayuhan sa Babilonia ay tatakas at babalik sa sarili nilang bayan na parang mga usang hinahabol. Uuwi sila na parang mga tupang walang nagbabantay. 15 Ang bawat mahuli ay sasaksakin hanggang sa mamatay. 16 Ang kanilang mga sanggol ay luluray-lurayin sa kanilang harapan. Sasamsamin ang mga ari-arian nila sa kanilang mga bahay at gagahasain ang kanilang mga asawa.
17 Makinig kayo! Ipapalusob ko ang Babilonia sa mga taga-Media na hindi nagpapahalaga sa pilak at ginto. 18 Papatayin ng mga taga-Media ang mga kabataang lalaki sa pamamagitan ng pana. Pati ang mga bata ay hindi nila kaaawaan. 19 Ang Babilonia ay kahariang pinakamaganda sa lahat ng kaharian. Ipinagmamalaki ito ng kanyang mga mamamayan.[a] Pero wawasakin ko ito katulad ng Sodom at Gomora. 20 At hindi na ito titirhan magpakailanman. Walang Arabong magtatayo roon ng kanyang tolda. At wala ring pastol na mag-aalaga roon ng kanyang mga tupa. 21 Magiging tirahan na lang ito ng mga hayop sa gubat. Titirhan ng mga kuwago at ng iba pang mababangis na hayop ang kanilang mga bahay, at lulukso-lukso roon ang mga kambing na maiilap. 22 Aalulong doon sa mga tore nila at mga palasyo ang mga asong-gubat.[b] Nalalapit na ang wakas ng Babilonia; hindi na ito magtatagal.

A Prophecy Against Babylon
13 A prophecy(A) against Babylon(B) that Isaiah son of Amoz(C) saw:(D)
2 Raise a banner(E) on a bare hilltop,
shout to them;
beckon to them
to enter the gates(F) of the nobles.
3 I have commanded those I prepared for battle;
I have summoned my warriors(G) to carry out my wrath(H)—
those who rejoice(I) in my triumph.
4 Listen, a noise on the mountains,
like that of a great multitude!(J)
Listen, an uproar(K) among the kingdoms,
like nations massing together!
The Lord Almighty(L) is mustering(M)
an army for war.
5 They come from faraway lands,
from the ends of the heavens(N)—
the Lord and the weapons(O) of his wrath(P)—
to destroy(Q) the whole country.
6 Wail,(R) for the day(S) of the Lord is near;
it will come like destruction(T) from the Almighty.[a](U)
7 Because of this, all hands will go limp,(V)
every heart will melt with fear.(W)
8 Terror(X) will seize them,
pain and anguish will grip(Y) them;
they will writhe like a woman in labor.(Z)
They will look aghast at each other,
their faces aflame.(AA)
9 See, the day(AB) of the Lord is coming
—a cruel(AC) day, with wrath(AD) and fierce anger(AE)—
to make the land desolate
and destroy the sinners within it.
10 The stars of heaven and their constellations
will not show their light.(AF)
The rising sun(AG) will be darkened(AH)
and the moon will not give its light.(AI)
11 I will punish(AJ) the world for its evil,
the wicked(AK) for their sins.
I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty(AL)
and will humble(AM) the pride of the ruthless.(AN)
12 I will make people(AO) scarcer than pure gold,
more rare than the gold of Ophir.(AP)
13 Therefore I will make the heavens tremble;(AQ)
and the earth will shake(AR) from its place
at the wrath(AS) of the Lord Almighty,
in the day of his burning anger.(AT)
14 Like a hunted(AU) gazelle,
like sheep without a shepherd,(AV)
they will all return to their own people,
they will flee(AW) to their native land.(AX)
15 Whoever is captured will be thrust through;
all who are caught will fall(AY) by the sword.(AZ)
16 Their infants(BA) will be dashed to pieces before their eyes;
their houses will be looted and their wives violated.(BB)
17 See, I will stir up(BC) against them the Medes,(BD)
who do not care for silver
and have no delight in gold.(BE)
18 Their bows(BF) will strike down the young men;(BG)
they will have no mercy(BH) on infants,
nor will they look with compassion on children.(BI)
19 Babylon,(BJ) the jewel of kingdoms,(BK)
the pride and glory(BL) of the Babylonians,[b]
will be overthrown(BM) by God
like Sodom and Gomorrah.(BN)
20 She will never be inhabited(BO)
or lived in through all generations;
there no nomads(BP) will pitch their tents,
there no shepherds will rest their flocks.
21 But desert creatures(BQ) will lie there,
jackals(BR) will fill her houses;
there the owls(BS) will dwell,
and there the wild goats(BT) will leap about.
22 Hyenas(BU) will inhabit her strongholds,(BV)
jackals(BW) her luxurious palaces.
Her time is at hand,(BX)
and her days will not be prolonged.(BY)

13 This is the vision God showed Isaiah (son of Amoz) concerning Babylon’s doom.
2 See the flags waving as their enemy attacks. Shout to them, O Israel, and wave them on as they march against Babylon to destroy the palaces of the rich and mighty. 3 I, the Lord, have set apart these armies for this task; I have called those rejoicing in their strength to do this work, to satisfy my anger. 4 Hear the tumult on the mountains! Listen as the armies march! It is the tumult and the shout of many nations. The Lord Almighty has brought them here, 5 from countries far away. They are his weapons against you, O Babylon. They carry his anger with them and will destroy your whole land.
6 Scream in terror, for the Lord’s time has come, the time for the Almighty to crush you. 7 Your arms lie paralyzed with fear; the strongest hearts melt 8 and are afraid. Fear grips you with terrible pangs, like those of a woman in labor. You look at one another, helpless, as the flames of the burning city reflect upon your pallid faces. 9 For see, the day of the Lord is coming, the terrible day of his wrath and fierce anger. The land shall be destroyed and all the sinners with it. 10 The heavens will be black above them. No light will shine from stars or sun or moon.
11 And I will punish the world for its evil, the wicked for their sin; I will crush the arrogance of the proud man and the haughtiness of the rich. 12 Few will live when I have finished up my work.
Men will be as scarce as gold—of greater value than the gold of Ophir. 13 For I will shake the heavens in my wrath and fierce anger, and the earth will move from its place in the skies.
14 The armies of Babylon will run until exhausted, fleeing back to their own land like deer chased by dogs, wandering like sheep deserted by their shepherd. 15 Those who don’t run will be butchered. 16 Their little children will be dashed to death against the pavement right before their eyes; their homes will be sacked and their wives raped by the attacking hordes. 17 For I will stir up the Medes against Babylon, and no amount of silver or gold will buy them off. 18 The attacking armies will have no mercy on the young people of Babylon or the babies or the children.
19 And so Babylon, the most glorious of kingdoms, the flower of Chaldean culture, will be as utterly destroyed as Sodom and Gomorrah were when God sent fire from heaven; 20 Babylon will never rise again. Generation after generation will come and go, but the land will never again be lived in.[a] The nomads will not even camp there. The shepherds won’t let their sheep stay overnight. 21 The wild animals of the desert will make it their home. The houses will be haunted by howling creatures. Ostriches will live there, and the demons will come there to dance. 22 Hyenas and jackals will den within the palaces. Babylon’s days are numbered; her time of doom will soon be here.

Isaiah 13
King James Version
13 The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see.
2 Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them, shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
3 I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness.
4 The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the Lord of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the Lord, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
6 Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:
8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.
9 Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.
13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
14 And it shall be as the chased roe, and as a sheep that no man taketh up: they shall every man turn to his own people, and flee every one into his own land.
15 Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword.
16 Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.
18 Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eyes shall not spare children.
19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
20 It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there.
21 But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their houses shall be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there.
22 And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their desolate houses, and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged.
