Isaías 30:27-33

27 ¡Miren! El Señor
viene desde muy lejos,
ardiendo de enojo,
rodeado de un humo espeso que sube.
Sus labios están llenos de furia;
sus palabras consumen como el fuego.

28 Su ardiente aliento fluye como una inundación
hasta el cuello de sus enemigos.
Él zarandeará a las naciones soberbias para destrucción;
les pondrá el freno en la boca y las llevará a la ruina.

29 Sin embargo, el pueblo de Dios entonará una canción de alegría,
como los cantos de los festivales sagrados.
Estarás lleno de alegría,
como cuando un flautista dirige a un grupo de peregrinos
a Jerusalén, el monte del Señor
,
a la Roca de Israel.

30 Y el Señor
hará oír su majestuosa voz
y demostrará la fuerza de su brazo poderoso.
Descenderá con llamas consumidoras,
con aguaceros, con tormentas eléctricas y enormes granizos.

31 Por orden del Señor
, los asirios serán destrozados;
los herirá de muerte con su cetro real.

32 Y cuando el Señor
los golpee con su vara de castigo,
su pueblo celebrará con arpas y panderetas.
Él levantará su brazo poderoso y peleará contra los asirios.

33 Tofet, el lugar de incineración,
hace tiempo que está preparado para el rey asirio;
la pira tiene un gran montón de leña.
La encenderá el aliento del Señor
, como fuego de volcán.

Isaías 30:27-33 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO ISAIAH 30

This chapter contains a complaint of the Jews for their sins and transgressions; a prophecy of their destruction for them; a promise of grace and mercy, and of happy times, to the saints; and a threatening of utter and dreadful ruin to the wicked. The Jews are complained of for their rebellion against God, their slighting his counsel and protection, their trust in Egypt, and application there for help; whither they went with their riches for safety, but in vain, it being contrary to the will and counsel of God, Isa 30:1-7 next follows a denunciation of ruin and destruction for these things, rebellion, and lying, and vain confidence, as well as for contempt of the word of God, which, that it might appear sure and certain, is ordered to be written in a book, Isa 30:8-12 and this ruin is signified by the sudden falling of a wall, and by the breaking of a potter's vessel into pieces, which can never be used more, Isa 30:13,14 and seeing they rejected the way of salvation proposed by the Lord, and took their own way, first destruction is threatened them, which should be very easily brought about, and become so general, that few should escape it, Isa 30:15-17 and then promises of grace and mercy are made to them that wait for the Lord, Isa 30:18 such as a dwelling place in Zion, hearing their prayers, granting them teachers to instruct them, and the riddance of idolatry from them, Isa 30:19-22 and also many outward blessings, as seasonable rain, good bread corn, fat pastures, good food for cattle, and fruitfulness of mountains and hills, Isa 30:23-25 likewise an amazing degree of spiritual light and glory, and healing of the Lord's people, Isa 30:26 and the chapter is concluded with a threatening Of God's wrath upon the Assyrian, expressed by various similes, as of an angry man, an overflowing torrent, a tempest of thunder, lightning, and hail, and the fire of Tophet, Isa 30:27-33.
