Isaías 48
Nueva Traducción Viviente
La obstinación del pueblo de Dios
48 »Escúchame, oh familia de Jacob,
tú que llevas el nombre de Israel
y naciste en la familia de Judá.
Escucha, tú que haces juramentos en el nombre del Señor
e invocas al Dios de Israel.
No cumples tus promesas,
2 aunque te llamas a ti misma la ciudad santa
y dices que confías en el Dios de Israel,
cuyo nombre es el Señor de los Ejércitos Celestiales.
3 Hace mucho tiempo te dije lo que iba a suceder.
Entonces, de repente entré en acción
y todas mis predicciones se hicieron realidad.
4 Pues yo sé lo terca y obstinada que eres;
tu cuello es tan inflexible como el hierro
y tu cabeza es tan dura como el bronce.
5 Por eso te dije lo que iba a suceder;
te anuncié de antemano lo que iba a hacer.
Así nunca podrías decir: “Mis ídolos lo hicieron;
mi imagen de madera y mi dios de metal ordenaron que sucediera”.
6 Oíste mis predicciones y las viste cumplidas,
pero te niegas a admitirlo.
Ahora te diré cosas nuevas,
cosas secretas que aún no has oído.
7 Son totalmente nuevas; no son del pasado.
Así que no podrás decir: “¡Eso ya lo sabíamos!”.
8 »Sí, te diré cosas completamente nuevas;
cosas que nunca antes habías oído.
Pues conozco muy bien lo traidora que eres;
fuiste rebelde desde tu nacimiento.
9 Sin embargo, por el amor y la honra de mi nombre,
contendré mi enojo y no te aniquilaré.
10 Te he refinado, pero no como se refina la plata;
más bien te he refinado en el horno del sufrimiento.
11 Te rescataré por amor de mí,
sí, por amor de mí mismo.
No permitiré que se manche mi reputación,
ni compartiré mi gloria con los ídolos.
Liberados de Babilonia
12 »Escúchame, oh familia de Jacob,
¡Israel, mi escogido!
Solo yo soy Dios,
el Primero y el Último.
13 Fue mi mano la que puso los cimientos de la tierra,
mi mano derecha la que extendió los cielos en las alturas.
Cuando llamo a las estrellas para que salgan,
aparecen todas en orden».
14 ¿Alguna vez te ha dicho esto uno de tus ídolos?
Vengan, todos ustedes, y escuchen:
El Señor ha escogido a Ciro como su aliado;
lo usará para poner fin al imperio de Babilonia
y para destruir a los ejércitos babilónicos.[a]
15 «Lo he dicho: ¡Llamo a Ciro!
Lo enviaré a cumplir este encargo y lo ayudaré para que triunfe.
16 Acérquense y escuchen esto:
desde el principio les he dicho con claridad lo que sucedería».
Ahora, el Señor Soberano y su Espíritu
me han enviado con este mensaje.
17 Esto dice el Señor,
tu Redentor, el Santo de Israel:
«Yo soy el Señor tu Dios,
que te enseña lo que te conviene
y te guía por las sendas que debes seguir.
18 ¡Ah, si solo hubieras hecho caso a mis mandatos!
Entonces habrías tenido una paz que correría como un río manso
y una justicia que pasaría sobre ti como las olas del mar.
19 Tus descendientes habrían sido como la arena del mar,
¡imposibles de contar!
No habría sido necesario destruirte
ni cortar el nombre de tu familia».
20 Sin embargo, incluso ahora, ¡sean libres de su cautiverio!
Salgan de Babilonia y de los babilonios.[b]
¡Canten este mensaje!
Grítenlo hasta los extremos de la tierra.
El Señor ha redimido a sus siervos:
a los del pueblo de Israel.[c]
21 No tuvieron sed
cuando él los guio a través del desierto.
Él partió la roca,
y brotó agua a chorros para que bebieran.
22 «Pero no hay paz para los malvados»,
dice el Señor.

Stubborn Israel
48 “Listen to this, you descendants of Jacob,
you who are called by the name of Israel(A)
and come from the line of Judah,(B)
you who take oaths(C) in the name of the Lord(D)
and invoke(E) the God of Israel—
but not in truth(F) or righteousness—
2 you who call yourselves citizens of the holy city(G)
and claim to rely(H) on the God of Israel—
the Lord Almighty is his name:(I)
3 I foretold the former things(J) long ago,
my mouth announced(K) them and I made them known;
then suddenly(L) I acted, and they came to pass.
4 For I knew how stubborn(M) you were;
your neck muscles(N) were iron,
your forehead(O) was bronze.
5 Therefore I told you these things long ago;
before they happened I announced(P) them to you
so that you could not say,
‘My images brought them about;(Q)
my wooden image and metal god ordained them.’
6 You have heard these things; look at them all.
Will you not admit them?
“From now on I will tell you of new things,(R)
of hidden things unknown to you.
7 They are created(S) now, and not long ago;(T)
you have not heard of them before today.
So you cannot say,
‘Yes, I knew(U) of them.’
8 You have neither heard nor understood;(V)
from of old your ears(W) have not been open.
Well do I know how treacherous(X) you are;
you were called a rebel(Y) from birth.
9 For my own name’s sake(Z) I delay my wrath;(AA)
for the sake of my praise I hold it back from you,
so as not to destroy you completely.(AB)
10 See, I have refined(AC) you, though not as silver;
I have tested(AD) you in the furnace(AE) of affliction.
11 For my own sake,(AF) for my own sake, I do this.
How can I let myself be defamed?(AG)
I will not yield my glory to another.(AH)
Israel Freed
12 “Listen(AI) to me, Jacob,
Israel, whom I have called:(AJ)
I am he;(AK)
I am the first and I am the last.(AL)
13 My own hand laid the foundations of the earth,(AM)
and my right hand spread out the heavens;(AN)
when I summon them,
they all stand up together.(AO)
14 “Come together,(AP) all of you, and listen:
Which of the idols has foretold(AQ) these things?
The Lord’s chosen ally(AR)
will carry out his purpose(AS) against Babylon;(AT)
his arm will be against the Babylonians.[a]
15 I, even I, have spoken;
yes, I have called(AU) him.
I will bring him,
and he will succeed(AV) in his mission.
16 “Come near(AW) me and listen(AX) to this:
“From the first announcement I have not spoken in secret;(AY)
at the time it happens, I am there.”
17 This is what the Lord says—
your Redeemer,(BC) the Holy One(BD) of Israel:
“I am the Lord your God,
who teaches(BE) you what is best for you,
who directs(BF) you in the way(BG) you should go.
18 If only you had paid attention(BH) to my commands,
your peace(BI) would have been like a river,(BJ)
your well-being(BK) like the waves of the sea.
19 Your descendants(BL) would have been like the sand,(BM)
your children like its numberless grains;(BN)
their name would never be blotted out(BO)
nor destroyed from before me.”
20 Leave Babylon,
flee(BP) from the Babylonians!
Announce this with shouts of joy(BQ)
and proclaim it.
Send it out to the ends of the earth;(BR)
say, “The Lord has redeemed(BS) his servant Jacob.”
21 They did not thirst(BT) when he led them through the deserts;
he made water flow(BU) for them from the rock;
he split the rock
and water gushed out.(BV)

Isaiah 48
King James Version
Isaiah 48
King James Version
48 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the Lord, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.
2 For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The Lord of hosts is his name.
3 I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass.
4 Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;
5 I have even from the beginning declared it to thee; before it came to pass I shewed it thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.
6 Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.
7 They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
8 Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.
9 For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.
10 Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
11 For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.
12 Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.
13 Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.
14 All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? The Lord hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans.
15 I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.
16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord God, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
17 Thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.
18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:
19 Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.
20 Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say ye, The Lord hath redeemed his servant Jacob.
21 And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out.
22 There is no peace, saith the Lord, unto the wicked.
