Angustia y auxilio
33 ¡Ay de ti, destructor, que no has sido destruido!
¡Ay de ti, traidor, que no has sido traicionado!
Cuando dejes de destruir,
te destruirán;
cuando dejes de traicionar,
te traicionarán.
2 Señor, ¡ten compasión de nosotros;
pues en ti esperamos!
Sé nuestra fortaleza[a] cada mañana,
nuestra salvación en tiempo de angustia.
3 Al estruendo de tu voz, huyen los pueblos;
cuando te levantas, se dispersan las naciones.
4 Su botín se recoge como si fuera devorado por orugas;
sobre él se lanza el enemigo como una bandada de langostas.
5 Exaltado es el Señor porque mora en las alturas,
y llena a Sión de justicia y rectitud.
6 Él será la seguridad de tus tiempos,
te dará en abundancia salvación, sabiduría y conocimiento;
el temor del Señor será tu tesoro.
7 ¡Miren cómo gritan sus valientes en las calles!
¡Amargamente lloran los mensajeros de paz!
8 Los caminos están desolados,
nadie transita por los senderos.
El convenio se ha quebrantado,
se desprecia a los testigos,[b]
¡a nadie se respeta!
9 La tierra está de luto y languidece;
el Líbano se avergüenza y se marchita;
Sarón es como un desierto;
Basán y el Carmelo pierden su follaje.
10 «Ahora me levantaré», dice el Señor.
«Ahora seré exaltado,
ahora seré ensalzado.
11 Ustedes conciben cizaña
y dan a luz paja;
¡pero mi soplo será un fuego que los consumirá!
12 Los pueblos serán calcinados,
como espinos cortados arderán en el fuego».
13 Ustedes que están lejos, oigan lo que he hecho;
y ustedes que están cerca, reconozcan mi poder.
14 Los pecadores están aterrados en Sión;
el temblor atrapa a los impíos:
«¿Quién de nosotros puede habitar en el fuego consumidor?
¿Quién de nosotros puede habitar en la hoguera eterna?».
15 Solo el que camina con justicia
y habla con rectitud,
el que rechaza la ganancia de la extorsión
y se sacude las manos para no aceptar soborno,
el que no presta oído a las conjuras de asesinato
y cierra los ojos para no contemplar el mal.
16 Ese morará en las alturas;
tendrá como refugio una fortaleza de rocas,
se le proveerá de pan
y no le faltará el agua.
17 Tus ojos verán al rey en su esplendor
y contemplarán una tierra que se extiende hasta muy lejos.
18 Dentro de ti meditarás acerca del terror y dirás:
«¿Dónde está el que lleva la cuenta?
¿Dónde el recaudador de impuestos?
¿Dónde el que lleva el registro de las torres?».
19 No verás más a ese pueblo insolente,
a ese pueblo de idioma confuso,
de lengua extraña e incomprensible.
20 Mira a Sión, la ciudad de nuestras fiestas;
tus ojos verán a Jerusalén,
morada apacible, campamento bien plantado;
sus estacas jamás se arrancarán
ni se romperá ninguna de sus sogas.
21 Allí el Señor nos mostrará su poder.
Será como un lugar de anchos ríos y canales.
Ningún barco de remos surcará sus aguas
ni barcos poderosos navegarán por ellas.
22 Porque el Señor es nuestro juez;
el Señor es nuestro legislador;
el Señor es nuestro rey:
¡Él nos salvará!
23 Tus cuerdas se han aflojado:
No sostienen el mástil con firmeza
ni se despliegan las velas.
Abundante botín habrá de repartirse
y aun los cojos se dedicarán al saqueo.
24 Ningún habitante dirá: «Estoy enfermo»;
y se perdonará la iniquidad del pueblo que allí habita.

The Judgment of God
33 Woe (A)to you, destroyer,
While you were not destroyed;
And he (B)who is treacherous, while others did not deal treacherously with him.
As soon as you finish destroying, (C)you will be destroyed;
As soon as you cease to deal treacherously, others will (D)deal treacherously with you.
2 Lord, (E)be gracious to us; we have (F)waited for You.
Be [a]their [b](G)strength every morning,
Our salvation also in the (H)time of distress.
3 At the sound of a roar, (I)peoples flee;
At the (J)lifting up of Yourself, nations disperse.
4 Your plunder is gathered as the caterpillar gathers;
Like an infestation of locusts, people storm it.
5 The Lord is (K)exalted, for He dwells on high;
He has (L)filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
6 And He will be the [c](M)stability of your times,
A (N)wealth of salvation, wisdom, and (O)knowledge;
The (P)fear of the Lord is his treasure.
7 Behold, their brave men cry out [d]in the streets,
The [e](Q)ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
8 The highways are desolate, [f]the (R)traveler has ceased,
He has (S)broken the covenant, he has despised the cities,
He has no regard for mankind.
9 (T)The land mourns and wastes away,
(U)Lebanon is shamed and withers;
(V)Sharon is like a desert plain,
And Bashan and Carmel [g]lose their foliage.
10 “Now (W)I will arise,” says the Lord,
“Now I will be exalted, now I will be lifted up.
11 You have (X)conceived [h]chaff, you will give birth to stubble;
[i]My (Y)breath will consume you like a fire.
12 The peoples will be burned to lime,
(Z)Like cut thorns which are burned in the fire.
13 “You who are far away, (AA)hear what I have done;
And you who are near, [j]acknowledge My might.”
14 (AB)Sinners in Zion are terrified;
(AC)Trembling has seized the godless.
“Who among us can live with (AD)the consuming fire?
Who among us can live with everlasting (AE)burning?”
15 One who (AF)walks righteously and speaks with integrity,
One who rejects [k]unjust gain
And shakes his hands so that they hold no bribe;
One who stops his ears from hearing about bloodshed
And (AG)shuts his eyes from looking at evil;
16 He will dwell on the heights,
(AH)His refuge will be the [l]impregnable rock;
(AI)His bread will be given him,
His water will be sure.
17 Your eyes will see (AJ)the King in His beauty;
They will see (AK)a distant land.
18 Your heart will meditate on (AL)terror:
“Where is (AM)one who counts?
Where is one who weighs?
Where is one who counts the towers?”
19 You will no longer see a fierce people,
A people of [m](AN)unintelligible speech [n]which no one comprehends,
Of a stammering tongue [o]which no one understands.
20 (AO)Look at Zion, the city of our appointed feasts;
Your eyes will see Jerusalem, an (AP)undisturbed settlement,
(AQ)A tent which will not be folded;
Its stakes will never be pulled up,
Nor any of its ropes be torn apart.
21 But there the majestic One, the Lord, will be for us
A place of (AR)rivers and wide canals
On which no boat with oars will go,
And on which no mighty ship will pass—
22 For the Lord is our (AS)judge,
The Lord is (AT)our lawgiver,
The Lord is (AU)our king;
(AV)He will save us—
23 Your ship’s tackle hangs slack;
It cannot hold the base of its mast firmly,
Nor spread out the sail.
Then the (AW)prey of an abundant spoil will be divided;
(AX)Those who limp will take the plunder.
24 And no resident will say, “I am (AY)sick”;
The people who live [p]there will be (AZ)forgiven their wrongdoing.

Distress and Help
33 Woe(A) to you, destroyer,
you who have not been destroyed!
Woe to you, betrayer,
you who have not been betrayed!
When you stop destroying,
you will be destroyed;(B)
when you stop betraying,
you will be betrayed.(C)
2 Lord, be gracious(D) to us;
we long for you.
Be our strength(E) every morning,
our salvation(F) in time of distress.(G)
3 At the uproar of your army,(H) the peoples flee;(I)
when you rise up,(J) the nations scatter.
4 Your plunder,(K) O nations, is harvested(L) as by young locusts;(M)
like a swarm of locusts people pounce on it.
5 The Lord is exalted,(N) for he dwells on high;(O)
he will fill Zion with his justice(P) and righteousness.(Q)
6 He will be the sure foundation for your times,
a rich store of salvation(R) and wisdom and knowledge;
the fear(S) of the Lord is the key to this treasure.[a](T)
7 Look, their brave men(U) cry aloud in the streets;
the envoys(V) of peace weep bitterly.
8 The highways are deserted,
no travelers(W) are on the roads.(X)
The treaty is broken,(Y)
its witnesses[b] are despised,
no one is respected.
9 The land dries up(Z) and wastes away,
Lebanon(AA) is ashamed and withers;(AB)
Sharon(AC) is like the Arabah,
and Bashan(AD) and Carmel(AE) drop their leaves.
10 “Now will I arise,(AF)” says the Lord.
“Now will I be exalted;(AG)
now will I be lifted up.
11 You conceive(AH) chaff,
you give birth(AI) to straw;
your breath is a fire(AJ) that consumes you.
12 The peoples will be burned to ashes;(AK)
like cut thornbushes(AL) they will be set ablaze.(AM)”
13 You who are far away,(AN) hear(AO) what I have done;
you who are near, acknowledge my power!
14 The sinners(AP) in Zion are terrified;
trembling(AQ) grips the godless:
“Who of us can dwell with the consuming fire?(AR)
Who of us can dwell with everlasting burning?”
15 Those who walk righteously(AS)
and speak what is right,(AT)
who reject gain from extortion(AU)
and keep their hands from accepting bribes,(AV)
who stop their ears against plots of murder
and shut their eyes(AW) against contemplating evil—
16 they are the ones who will dwell on the heights,(AX)
whose refuge(AY) will be the mountain fortress.(AZ)
Their bread will be supplied,
and water will not fail(BA) them.
17 Your eyes will see the king(BB) in his beauty(BC)
and view a land that stretches afar.(BD)
18 In your thoughts you will ponder the former terror:(BE)
“Where is that chief officer?
Where is the one who took the revenue?
Where is the officer in charge of the towers?(BF)”
19 You will see those arrogant people(BG) no more,
people whose speech is obscure,
whose language is strange and incomprehensible.(BH)
20 Look on Zion,(BI) the city of our festivals;
your eyes will see Jerusalem,
a peaceful abode,(BJ) a tent(BK) that will not be moved;(BL)
its stakes will never be pulled up,
nor any of its ropes broken.
21 There the Lord will be our Mighty(BM) One.
It will be like a place of broad rivers and streams.(BN)
No galley with oars will ride them,
no mighty ship(BO) will sail them.
22 For the Lord is our judge,(BP)
the Lord is our lawgiver,(BQ)
the Lord is our king;(BR)
it is he who will save(BS) us.
