GOD'S WORD Translation GW
1 Y TU levanta endecha sobre los príncipes de Israel.
1
Sing a funeral song for the princes of Israel.
2 Y dirás: ¡Cómo se echó entre los leones tu madre la leona! entre los leoncillos crió sus cachorros.
2
Say: Your mother was like a lioness. She lay down among the lions. She fed many cubs.
3 E hizo subir uno de sus cachorros: vino á ser leoncillo, y aprendió á prender presa, y á devorar hombres.
3
One of the cubs she raised became a young lion. He learned to tear apart the animals he hunted. He ate people.
4 Y las gentes oyeron de él: fué tomado con el lazo de ellas, y lleváronlo con grillos á la tierra de Egipto.
4
The nations heard about him, caught him in their pit, and brought him with hooks to Egypt.
5 Y viendo ella que había esperado mucho tiempo, y que se perdía su esperanza, tomó otro de sus cachorros, y púsolo por leoncillo.
5
The lioness waited until she saw that there was no more hope. Then she took another one of her cubs and raised him into a young lion.
6 Y él andaba entre los leones; hízose leoncillo, aprendió á hacer presa, devoró hombres.
6
He became a young lion, and he prowled among the lions. He learned to tear apart the animals he hunted. He ate people.
7 Y conoció sus viudas, y asoló sus ciudades; y la tierra fué asolada, y su abundancia, á la voz de su bramido.
7
He destroyed fortresses and turned cities into wastelands. The land and everyone living in it were terrified by the sound of his roar.
8 Y dieron sobre él las gentes de las provincias de su alrededor, y extendieron sobre él su red; fué preso en su hoyo.
8
The nations from every region came together against him. They spread their net over him and caught him in their pit.
9 Y pusiéronlo en cárcel con cadenas, y lleváronlo al rey de Babilonia; metiéronlo en fortalezas, para que su voz no se oyese más sobre los montes de Israel.
9
With hooks they put him in a cage and brought him to the king of Babylon. They put him in prison so that his roar wouldn't be heard anymore on the mountains of Israel.
10 Tu madre fué como una vid en tu sangre, plantada junto á las aguas, haciendo fruto y echando vástagos á causa de las muchas aguas.
10
Your mother was like a grapevine that was planted near water. It had a lot of fruit and many branches because there was plenty of water.
11 Y ella tuvo varas fuertes para cetros de señores; y levantóse su estatura por encima entre las ramas, y fué vista en su altura, y con la multitud de sus sarmientos.
11
Its branches were strong. They were used to make scepters for kings. It grew to be tall with many branches around it, and everyone saw it because of its many branches.
12 Empero fué arrancada con ira, derribada en tierra, y viento solano secó su fruto; fueron quebradas y secáronse sus varas fuertes; consumiólas el fuego.
12
But in anger it was uprooted and thrown to the ground. The east wind dried up its fruit. Its strong branches broke off. They withered and were burned.
13 Y ahora está plantada en el desierto, en tierra de sequedad y de aridez.
13
Now it is planted in the desert, in a dry and waterless land.
14 Y ha salido fuego de la vara de sus ramos, ha consumido su fruto, y no ha quedado en ella vara fuerte, cetro para enseñorear. Endecha es esta, y de endecha servirá.
14
Fire has spread from the vine's main branch. Fire has destroyed its fruit. It no longer has any strong branches that could be used as a king's scepter. This is a funeral song. It is to be used as a funeral song.
