Nehemías 9

La Biblia de las Américas (Español) BLA

1 El día veinticuatro de este mes se congregaron los hijos de Israel en ayuno, vestidos de cilicio y con polvo sobre sí.

2 Y los descendientes de Israel se separaron de todos los extranjeros, y se pusieron en pie, confesando sus pecados y las iniquidades de sus padres.

3 Puestos de pie, cada uno en su lugar, leyeron en el libro de la ley del SEÑOR su Dios por una cuarta parte del día; y por otra cuarta parte confesaron y adoraron al SEÑOR su Dios.

4 Y sobre el estrado de los levitas se levantaron Jesúa, Bani, Cadmiel, Sebanías, Buni, Serebías, Bani y Quenani, y clamaron en alta voz al SEÑOR su Dios.

5 Entonces los levitas, Jesúa, Cadmiel, Bani, Hasabnías, Serebías, Hodías, Sebanías y Petaías, dijeron: Levantaos, bendecid al SEÑOR vuestro Dios por siempre y para siempre. Sea bendito tu glorioso nombre y exaltado sobre toda bendición y alabanza.

6 Sólo tú eres el SEÑOR. Tú hiciste los cielos, los cielos de los cielos con todo su ejército, la tierra y todo lo que en ella hay, los mares y todo lo que en ellos hay. Tú das vida a todos ellos y el ejército de los cielos se postra ante ti.

7 Tú eres el SEÑOR Dios que escogiste a Abram, lo sacaste de Ur de los Caldeos y le diste por nombre Abraham.

8 Hallaste fiel su corazón delante de ti, e hiciste con él un pacto para darle la tierra del cananeo, del heteo, del amorreo, del ferezeo, del jebuseo y del gergeseo, para darla a su descendencia. Y has cumplido tu palabra, porque eres justo.

9 Tú viste la aflicción de nuestros padres en Egipto, y escuchaste su clamor junto al mar Rojo.

10 Entonces hiciste señales y maravillas contra Faraón, contra todos sus siervos y contra todo el pueblo de su tierra; pues supiste que ellos los trataban con soberbia, y te hiciste un nombre como el de hoy.

11 Dividiste el mar delante de ellos, y pasaron por medio del mar sobre tierra firme; y echaste en los abismos a sus perseguidores, como a una piedra en aguas turbulentas.

12 Con columna de nube los guiaste de día, y con columna de fuego de noche, para alumbrarles el camino en que debían andar.

13 Luego bajaste sobre el monte Sinaí, y desde el cielo hablaste con ellos; les diste ordenanzas justas y leyes verdaderas, estatutos y mandamientos buenos.

14 Les hiciste conocer tu santo día de reposo, y les prescribiste mandamientos, estatutos y la ley por medio de tu siervo Moisés.

15 Les proveíste pan del cielo para su hambre, les sacaste agua de la peña para su sed, y les dijiste que entraran a poseer la tierra que tú habías jurado darles.

16 Pero ellos, nuestros padres, obraron con soberbia, endurecieron su cerviz y no escucharon tus mandamientos.

17 Rehusaron escuchar, y no se acordaron de las maravillas que hiciste entre ellos; endurecieron su cerviz y eligieron un jefe para volver a su esclavitud en Egipto . Pero tú eres un Dios de perdón, clemente y compasivo, lento para la ira y abundante en misericordia, y no los abandonaste.

18 Ni siquiera cuando se hicieron un becerro de metal fundido y dijeron: "Este es tu Dios que te sacó de Egipto", y cometieron grandes blasfemias ,

19 tú, en tu gran compasión, no los abandonaste en el desierto; la columna de nube no los dejó de día, para guiarlos en el camino, ni la columna de fuego de noche, para alumbrarles el camino por donde debían andar.

20 Y diste tu buen Espíritu para instruirles, no retiraste tu maná de su boca, y les diste agua para su sed.

21 Por cuarenta años proveíste para ellos en el desierto y nada les faltó, sus vestidos no se gastaron ni se hincharon sus pies.

22 También les diste reinos y pueblos, y se los repartiste con sus límites. Y tomaron posesión de la tierra de Sehón, rey de Hesbón, y la tierra de Og, rey de Basán.

23 Y multiplicaste sus hijos como las estrellas del cielo, y los llevaste a la tierra que habías dicho a sus padres que entraran a poseerla.

24 Y entraron los hijos y poseyeron la tierra. Y tú sometiste delante de ellos a los habitantes de la tierra, a los cananeos, y los entregaste en su mano, con sus reyes y los pueblos de la tierra, para hacer con ellos como quisieran.

25 Y capturaron ciudades fortificadas y una tierra fértil. Tomaron posesión de casas llenas de toda cosa buena, cisternas excavadas, viñas y olivares, y árboles frutales en abundancia. Y comieron, se saciaron, engordaron y se deleitaron en tu gran bondad.

26 Pero fueron desobedientes y se rebelaron contra ti, echaron tu ley a sus espaldas, mataron a tus profetas que los amonestaban para que se volvieran a ti, y cometieron grandes blasfemias.

27 Entonces los entregaste en mano de sus enemigos, que los oprimieron, pero en el tiempo de su angustia clamaron a ti, y tú escuchaste desde el cielo, y conforme a tu gran compasión les diste libertadores que los libraron de mano de sus opresores.

28 Pero cuando tenían descanso, volvían a hacer lo malo delante de ti; por eso tú los abandonabas en mano de sus enemigos para que los dominaran; y cuando clamaban de nuevo a ti, tú oías desde el cielo y muchas veces los rescataste conforme a tu compasión.

29 Los amonestaste para que volvieran a tu ley, pero ellos obraron con soberbia y no escucharon tus mandamientos, sino que pecaron contra tus ordenanzas, las cuales si el hombre las cumple, por ellas vivirá. Y dieron la espalda en rebeldía, endurecieron su cerviz y no escucharon.

30 Sin embargo, tú los soportaste por muchos años, y los amonestaste con tu Espíritu por medio de tus profetas, pero no prestaron oído. Entonces los entregaste en mano de los pueblos de estas tierras.

31 Pero en tu gran compasión no los exterminaste ni los abandonaste, porque tú eres un Dios clemente y compasivo.

32 Ahora pues, Dios nuestro, Dios grande, poderoso y temible, que guardas el pacto y la misericordia, no parezca insignificante ante ti toda la aflicción que nos ha sobrevenido, a nuestros reyes, a nuestros príncipes, a nuestros sacerdotes, a nuestros profetas, a nuestros padres y a todo tu pueblo, desde los días de los reyes de Asiria hasta el día de hoy.

33 Mas tú eres justo en todo lo que ha venido sobre nosotros, porque tú has obrado fielmente, pero nosotros perversamente.

34 Nuestros reyes, nuestros jefes, nuestros sacerdotes y nuestros padres no han observado tu ley ni han hecho caso a tus mandamientos ni a tus amonestaciones con que los amonestabas.

35 Pero ellos en su propio reino, con los muchos bienes que tú les diste, con la espaciosa y rica tierra que pusiste delante de ellos, no te sirvieron ni se convirtieron de sus malas obras.

36 He aquí, hoy somos esclavos, y en cuanto a la tierra que diste a nuestros padres para comer de sus frutos y de sus bienes, he aquí, somos esclavos en ella.

37 Y su abundante fruto es para los reyes que tú pusiste sobre nosotros a causa de nuestros pecados, los cuales dominan nuestros cuerpos y nuestros ganados como les place, y en gran angustia estamos.

38 A causa de todo esto, nosotros hacemos un pacto fiel por escrito; y en el documento sellado están los nombres de nuestros jefes, nuestros levitas y nuestros sacerdotes.

New International Version NIV

1 On the twenty-fourth day of the same month, the Israelites gathered together, fasting and wearing sackcloth and putting dust on their heads.

2 Those of Israelite descent had separated themselves from all foreigners. They stood in their places and confessed their sins and the sins of their ancestors.

3 They stood where they were and read from the Book of the Law of the LORD their God for a quarter of the day, and spent another quarter in confession and in worshiping the LORD their God.

4 Standing on the stairs of the Levites were Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani and Kenani. They cried out with loud voices to the LORD their God.

5 And the Levites—Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah and Pethahiah—said: “Stand up and praise the LORD your God, who is from everlasting to everlasting. ” “Blessed be your glorious name, and may it be exalted above all blessing and praise.

6 You alone are the LORD. You made the heavens, even the highest heavens, and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You give life to everything, and the multitudes of heaven worship you.

7 “You are the LORD God, who chose Abram and brought him out of Ur of the Chaldeans and named him Abraham.

8 You found his heart faithful to you, and you made a covenant with him to give to his descendants the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Jebusites and Girgashites. You have kept your promise because you are righteous.

9 “You saw the suffering of our ancestors in Egypt; you heard their cry at the Red Sea.

10 You sent signs and wonders against Pharaoh, against all his officials and all the people of his land, for you knew how arrogantly the Egyptians treated them. You made a name for yourself, which remains to this day.

11 You divided the sea before them, so that they passed through it on dry ground, but you hurled their pursuers into the depths, like a stone into mighty waters.

12 By day you led them with a pillar of cloud, and by night with a pillar of fire to give them light on the way they were to take.

13 “You came down on Mount Sinai; you spoke to them from heaven. You gave them regulations and laws that are just and right, and decrees and commands that are good.

14 You made known to them your holy Sabbath and gave them commands, decrees and laws through your servant Moses.

15 In their hunger you gave them bread from heaven and in their thirst you brought them water from the rock; you told them to go in and take possession of the land you had sworn with uplifted hand to give them.

16 “But they, our ancestors, became arrogant and stiff-necked, and they did not obey your commands.

17 They refused to listen and failed to remember the miracles you performed among them. They became stiff-necked and in their rebellion appointed a leader in order to return to their slavery. But you are a forgiving God, gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love. Therefore you did not desert them,

18 even when they cast for themselves an image of a calf and said, ‘This is your god, who brought you up out of Egypt,’ or when they committed awful blasphemies.

19 “Because of your great compassion you did not abandon them in the wilderness. By day the pillar of cloud did not fail to guide them on their path, nor the pillar of fire by night to shine on the way they were to take.

20 You gave your good Spirit to instruct them. You did not withhold your manna from their mouths, and you gave them water for their thirst.

21 For forty years you sustained them in the wilderness; they lacked nothing, their clothes did not wear out nor did their feet become swollen.

22 “You gave them kingdoms and nations, allotting to them even the remotest frontiers. They took over the country of Sihon king of Heshbon and the country of Og king of Bashan.

23 You made their children as numerous as the stars in the sky, and you brought them into the land that you told their parents to enter and possess.

24 Their children went in and took possession of the land. You subdued before them the Canaanites, who lived in the land; you gave the Canaanites into their hands, along with their kings and the peoples of the land, to deal with them as they pleased.

25 They captured fortified cities and fertile land; they took possession of houses filled with all kinds of good things, wells already dug, vineyards, olive groves and fruit trees in abundance. They ate to the full and were well-nourished; they reveled in your great goodness.

26 “But they were disobedient and rebelled against you; they turned their backs on your law. They killed your prophets, who had warned them in order to turn them back to you; they committed awful blasphemies.

27 So you delivered them into the hands of their enemies, who oppressed them. But when they were oppressed they cried out to you. From heaven you heard them, and in your great compassion you gave them deliverers, who rescued them from the hand of their enemies.

28 “But as soon as they were at rest, they again did what was evil in your sight. Then you abandoned them to the hand of their enemies so that they ruled over them. And when they cried out to you again, you heard from heaven, and in your compassion you delivered them time after time.

29 “You warned them in order to turn them back to your law, but they became arrogant and disobeyed your commands. They sinned against your ordinances, of which you said, ‘The person who obeys them will live by them.’ Stubbornly they turned their backs on you, became stiff-necked and refused to listen.

30 For many years you were patient with them. By your Spirit you warned them through your prophets. Yet they paid no attention, so you gave them into the hands of the neighboring peoples.

31 But in your great mercy you did not put an end to them or abandon them, for you are a gracious and merciful God.

32 “Now therefore, our God, the great God, mighty and awesome, who keeps his covenant of love, do not let all this hardship seem trifling in your eyes—the hardship that has come on us, on our kings and leaders, on our priests and prophets, on our ancestors and all your people, from the days of the kings of Assyria until today.

33 In all that has happened to us, you have remained righteous; you have acted faithfully, while we acted wickedly.

34 Our kings, our leaders, our priests and our ancestors did not follow your law; they did not pay attention to your commands or the statutes you warned them to keep.

35 Even while they were in their kingdom, enjoying your great goodness to them in the spacious and fertile land you gave them, they did not serve you or turn from their evil ways.

36 “But see, we are slaves today, slaves in the land you gave our ancestors so they could eat its fruit and the other good things it produces.

37 Because of our sins, its abundant harvest goes to the kings you have placed over us. They rule over our bodies and our cattle as they please. We are in great distress.

38 “In view of all this, we are making a binding agreement, putting it in writing, and our leaders, our Levites and our priests are affixing their seals to it.”
