Jeremías 17
Nueva Versión Internacional
17 »El pecado de Judá está escrito con cincel de hierro;
grabado está con punta de diamante
sobre la tabla de su corazón
y sobre los cuernos de sus altares.
2 Aún sus hijos recuerdan sus altares
y las imágenes de Aserá
junto a los árboles frondosos
sobre las altas colinas,
3 y sobre mi montaña a campo abierto.
Así que entregaré como botín tu riqueza,
tus tesoros y tus altares paganos,
por todos tus pecados
en todo tu territorio.
4 Por tu culpa perderás la herencia
que yo te había dado.
Te haré esclava de tus enemigos,
en un país para ti desconocido,
porque has encendido mi ira,
la cual se mantendrá ardiendo para siempre».
5 Así dice el Señor:
«¡Maldito aquel que confía en los hombres,
que se apoya en fuerzas humanas
y aparta su corazón del Señor!
6 Será como una zarza en el desierto:
no se dará cuenta cuando llegue el bien.
Morará en la sequedad del desierto,
en tierras de sal, donde nadie habita.
7 »Bendito el hombre que confía en el Señor
y pone su confianza en él.
8 Será como un árbol plantado junto al agua
que extiende sus raíces hacia la corriente;
no teme que llegue el calor
y sus hojas están siempre verdes.
En época de sequía no se angustia
y nunca deja de dar fruto».
9 Nada hay tan engañoso como el corazón.
No tiene remedio.
¿Quién puede comprenderlo?
10 «Yo, el Señor, sondeo el corazón
y examino los pensamientos,
para darle a cada uno según sus acciones
y según el fruto de sus obras».
11 El que acapara riquezas injustas
es como una perdiz que empolla huevos que no puso.
En la mitad de la vida las perderá
y al final se mostrará como un insensato.
12 Trono glorioso, exaltado desde el principio
es el lugar de nuestro santuario.
13 Señor, tú eres la esperanza de Israel,
todo el que te abandona quedará avergonzado.
El que se aparta de ti quedará como algo escrito en el polvo,
porque abandonó al Señor,
fuente de aguas vivas.
14 Sáname, Señor, y seré sanado;
sálvame y seré salvo,
porque tú eres mi alabanza.
15 No falta quien me pregunte:
«¿Dónde está la palabra del Señor?
¡Que se cumpla ya!».
16 Pero yo no me he apresurado a abandonarte y dejar de ser tu pastor;
tampoco he deseado que venga el día de la calamidad.
Tú bien sabes lo que he dicho,
pues lo dije en tu presencia.
17 No seas para mí un motivo de terror;
tú eres mi refugio en tiempos de calamidad.
18 ¡No me pongas a mí en vergüenza;
avergüénzalos a ellos!
¡No me llenes de terror a mí;
aterrorízalos a ellos!
Envíales tiempos de calamidad;
¡destrózalos y vuelve a destrozarlos!
La observancia del sábado
19 Así me dijo el Señor: «Ve y párate en la puerta del Pueblo, por donde entran y salen los reyes de Judá; luego, en todas las puertas de Jerusalén. 20 Diles: “¡Escuchen la palabra del Señor, reyes de Judá, toda la gente de Judá y todos los habitantes de Jerusalén que entran por estas puertas! 21 Así dice el Señor: ‘Cuídense bien de no llevar ninguna carga en día sábado y de no meterla por las puertas de Jerusalén. 22 Tampoco saquen ninguna carga de sus casas en día sábado ni hagan ningún tipo de trabajo. Consagren el día sábado, tal como se lo ordené a sus antepasados. 23 Pero ellos no me prestaron atención ni me obedecieron, sino que se obstinaron y no quisieron escuchar ni recibir corrección.
24 »” ’Si de veras me obedecen —afirma el Señor—, y no meten ninguna carga por las puertas de esta ciudad en día sábado, sino que consagren este día no haciendo ningún trabajo, 25 entonces reyes entrarán por las puertas de esta ciudad con sus oficiales y se sentarán en el trono de David. Ellos y sus oficiales entrarán montados en carros y caballos, acompañados por la gente de Judá y por los habitantes de Jerusalén, y esta ciudad será habitada para siempre. 26 Vendrá gente de las ciudades de Judá y de los alrededores de Jerusalén, del territorio de Benjamín y de la Sefelá, de la región montañosa y del Néguev. Traerán al Templo del Señor holocaustos y sacrificios, ofrendas de cereal, incienso y ofrendas de acción de gracias. 27 Pero si no obedecen en consagrar el día sábado y permiten que entren cargas por las puertas de Jerusalén en sábado, entonces prenderé fuego a sus puertas que no podrá ser apagado y que consumirá los palacios de Jerusalén’ ”».

17 “Y’hudah’s sin is written with an iron pen;
with a diamond point it is engraved
on the tablet of their hearts
and on the horns of your altars.
2 As they remember their children,
so they remember their altars
and their sacred poles by the green trees
on the high hills.
3 My mountain in the field, your wealth
and all your treasures will be plundered;
because of the sin of your high places
throughout your territory.
4 You will relinquish your hold
on your heritage which I gave you.
I will make you serve your enemies
in a land you do not know.
For you have kindled my fiery anger,
and it will burn forever.”
5 Here is what Adonai says:
“A curse on the person who trusts in humans,
who relies on merely human strength,
whose heart turns away from Adonai.
6 He will be like a tamarisk in the ‘Aravah —
when relief comes, it is unaffected;
for it lives in the sun-baked desert,
in salty, uninhabited land.
7 Blessed is the man who trusts in Adonai;
Adonai will be his security.
8 He will be like a tree planted near water;
it spreads out its roots by the river;
it does not notice when heat comes;
and its foliage is luxuriant;
it is not anxious in a year of drought
but keeps on yielding fruit.
9 “The heart is more deceitful than anything else
and mortally sick. Who can fathom it?
10 I, Adonai, search the heart;
I test inner motivations;
in order to give to everyone
what his actions and conduct deserve.”
11 A partridge hatches eggs it did not lay;
like this are those who get rich unjustly:
in the prime of life their wealth will desert them;
in the end they will prove to be fools.
12 Throne of Glory,
exalted from the beginning!
Our Holy Sanctuary,
13 Hope of Isra’el, Adonai!
All who abandon you will be ashamed,
those who leave you will be inscribed in the dust,
because they have abandoned Adonai,
the source of living water.
14 Heal me, Adonai, and I will be healed;
save me, and I will be saved,
for you are my praise.
15 They keep asking me,
“Where is the word of Adonai?
Let it come now.”
16 As for me, I have not run away
from being a shepherd who follows you;
you know I didn’t want this fatal day;
what came from my lips has been clear to you.
17 So do not be my ruin,
you, my refuge on the day of disaster.
18 Let my persecutors be ashamed, not me;
let them be terrified, not me.
Bring on them the day of disaster,
destroy them with double destruction.
19 Then Adonai said this to me: “Go, and stand at the People’s Gate, where the kings of Y’hudah go in and out, and at all the gates of Yerushalayim; 20 and say to them: ‘Kings of Y’hudah, all Y’hudah and all living in Yerushalayim who enter through these gates, hear the word of Adonai! 21 Here is what Adonai says: “If you value your lives, don’t carry anything on Shabbat or bring it in through the gates of Yerushalayim; 22 don’t carry anything out of your houses on Shabbat; and don’t do any work. Instead, make Shabbat a holy day. I ordered your ancestors to do this, 23 but they neither listened nor paid attention; rather, they stiffened their necks, so that they wouldn’t have to hear or receive instruction. 24 However, if you will pay careful heed to me,” says Adonai “and carry nothing through the gates of this city on Shabbat, but instead make Shabbat a day which is holy and not for doing work; 25 then kings and princes occupying the throne of David will enter through the gates of this city, riding in chariots and on horses. They, their princes, the people of Y’hudah and the inhabitants of Yerushalayim will enter; and this city will be inhabited forever. 26 They will come from the cities of Y’hudah, from the places surrounding Yerushalayim, from the land of Binyamin, from the Sh’felah, from the hills and from the Negev, bringing burnt offerings, sacrifices, grain offerings, frankincense and thanksgiving sacrifices to the house of Adonai. 27 But if you will not obey me and make Shabbat a holy day and not carry loads through the gates of Yerushalayim on Shabbat, then I will set its gates on fire; it will burn up the palaces of Yerushalayim and not be quenched.”’”

King James Version
17 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars;
2 Whilst their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees upon the high hills.
3 O my mountain in the field, I will give thy substance and all thy treasures to the spoil, and thy high places for sin, throughout all thy borders.
4 And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue from thine heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in mine anger, which shall burn for ever.
5 Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord.
6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.
8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
10 I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
11 As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
12 A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.
13 O Lord, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the Lord, the fountain of living waters.
14 Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.
15 Behold, they say unto me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come now.
16 As for me, I have not hastened from being a pastor to follow thee: neither have I desired the woeful day; thou knowest: that which came out of my lips was right before thee.
17 Be not a terror unto me: thou art my hope in the day of evil.
18 Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
19 Thus said the Lord unto me; Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, whereby the kings of Judah come in, and by the which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem;
20 And say unto them, Hear ye the word of the Lord, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:
21 Thus saith the Lord; Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem;
22 Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work, but hallow ye the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers.
23 But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.
24 And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently hearken unto me, saith the Lord, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but hallow the sabbath day, to do no work therein;
25 Then shall there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and this city shall remain for ever.
26 And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the plain, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of praise, unto the house of the Lord.
27 But if ye will not hearken unto me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden, even entering in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
