Sofonías 3

La Biblia de las Américas (Español) BLA

1 ¡Ay de la rebelde y contaminada, la ciudad opresora!

2 No escuchó la voz, ni aceptó la corrección. No confió en el SEÑOR, ni se acercó a su Dios.

3 Sus príncipes en medio de ella son leones rugientes, sus jueces, lobos al anochecer; no dejan nada para la mañana.

4 Sus profetas son temerarios, hombres pérfidos; sus sacerdotes han profanado el santuario, han violado la ley.

5 El SEÑOR es justo en medio de ella; no cometerá injusticia. Cada mañana saca a luz su juicio, nunca falta; pero el injusto no conoce la verguenza.

6 Yo he exterminado naciones; sus torreones están en ruinas, hice desiertas sus calles, sin que nadie pase por ellas; sus ciudades están desoladas, sin hombre alguno, sin ningún habitante.

7 Dije: "Ciertamente me temerás, aceptarás corrección." Entonces no será destruida su morada a pesar de todo lo que yo había determinado sobre ella; pero ellos se apresuraron a corromper todas sus acciones.

8 Por tanto, esperadmedeclara el SEÑOR hasta el día en que me levante como testigo, porque mi decisión es reunir a las naciones, juntar a los reinos, para derramar sobre ellos mi indignación, todo el ardor de mi ira; porque por el fuego de mi celo toda la tierra será consumida.

9 En ese tiempo daré a los pueblos labios puros, para que todos ellos invoquen el nombre del SEÑOR, para que le sirvan de común acuerdo.

10 Desde más allá de los ríos de Etiopía mis adoradores, mis dispersos, traerán mi ofrenda.

11 Aquel día no te avergonzarás de ninguna de tus acciones con que te rebelaste contra mí; porque entonces yo quitaré de en medio de ti a los que se regocijan en tu orgullo, y nunca más te envanecerás en mi santo monte.

12 Y dejaré en medio de ti un pueblo humilde y pobre, que se refugiará en el nombre del SEÑOR.

13 El remanente de Israel no hará injusticia ni dirá mentira, ni se hallará en su boca lengua engañosa, porque ellos se alimentarán y reposarán sin que nadie los atemorice.

14 Canta jubilosa, hija de Sion. Lanza gritos de alegría, Israel. Alégrate y regocíjate de todo corazón, hija de Jerusalén.

15 El SEÑOR ha retirado sus juicios contra ti, ha expulsado a tus enemigos. El Rey de Israel, el SEÑOR, está en medio de ti; ya no temerás mal alguno.

16 Aquel día le dirán a Jerusalén: No temas, Sion; no desfallezcan tus manos.

17 El SEÑOR tu Dios está en medio de ti, guerrero victorioso; se gozará en ti con alegría, en su amor guardará silencio , se regocijará por ti con cantos de júbilo.

18 Reuniré a los que se afligen por las fiestas señaladas, tuyos son, oh Sion, el oprobio del destierro es una carga para ellos.

19 He aquí, en aquel tiempo me ocuparé de todos tus opresores; salvaré a la coja y recogeré a la desterrada, y convertiré su verguenza en alabanza y renombre en toda la tierra.

20 En aquel tiempo os traeré, en aquel tiempo os reuniré; ciertamente, os daré renombre y alabanza entre todos los pueblos de la tierra, cuando yo haga volver a vuestros cautivos ante vuestros ojos dice el SEÑOR.

The Message Bible MSG

1 Doom to the rebellious city, the home of oppressors - Sewer City!

2 The city that wouldn't take advice, wouldn't accept correction, Wouldn't trust God, wouldn't even get close to her own god!

3 Her very own leaders are rapacious lions, Her judges are rapacious timber wolves out every morning prowling for a fresh kill.

4 Her prophets are out for what they can get. They're opportunists - you can't trust them. Her priests desecrate the Sanctuary. They use God's law as a weapon to maim and kill souls.

5 Yet God remains righteous in her midst, untouched by the evil. He stays at it, day after day, meting out justice. At evening he's still at it, strong as ever. But evil men and women, without conscience and without shame, persist in evil.

6 "So I cut off the godless nations. I knocked down their defense posts, Filled her roads with rubble so no one could get through. Her cities were bombed-out ruins, unlivable and unlived in.

7 "I thought, 'Surely she'll honor me now, accept my discipline and correction, Find a way of escape from the trouble she's in, find relief from the punishment I'm bringing.' But it didn't faze her. Bright and early she was up at it again, doing the same old things.

8 "Well, if that's what you want, stick around." God's Decree. "Your day in court is coming, but remember I'll be there to bring evidence. I'll bring all the nations to the courtroom, round up all the kingdoms, And let them feel the brunt of my anger, my raging wrath. My zeal is a fire that will purge and purify the earth. God Is in Charge at the Center

9 "In the end I will turn things around for the people. I'll give them a language undistorted, unpolluted, Words to address God in worship and, united, to serve me with their shoulders to the wheel.

10 They'll come from beyond the Ethiopian rivers, they'll come praying - All my scattered, exiled people will come home with offerings for worship.

11 You'll no longer have to be ashamed of all those acts of rebellion. I'll have gotten rid of your arrogant leaders. No more pious strutting on my holy hill!

12 I'll leave a core of people among you who are poor in spirit - What's left of Israel that's really Israel. They'll make their home in God.

13 This core holy people will not do wrong. They won't lie, won't use words to flatter or seduce. Content with who they are and where they are, unanxious, they'll live at peace."

14 So sing, Daughter Zion! Raise the rafters, Israel! Daughter Jerusalem, be happy! celebrate!

15 God has reversed his judgments against you and sent your enemies off chasing their tails. From now on, God is Israel's king, in charge at the center. There's nothing to fear from evil ever again! God Is Present Among You

16 Jerusalem will be told: "Don't be afraid. Dear Zion, don't despair.

17 Your God is present among you, a strong Warrior there to save you. Happy to have you back, he'll calm you with his love and delight you with his songs.

18 "The accumulated sorrows of your exile will dissipate. I, your God, will get rid of them for you. You've carried those burdens long enough.

19 At the same time, I'll get rid of all those who've made your life miserable. I'll heal the maimed; I'll bring home the homeless. In the very countries where they were hated they will be venerated.

20 On Judgment Day I'll bring you back home - a great family gathering! You'll be famous and honored all over the world. You'll see it with your own eyes - all those painful partings turned into reunions!" God's Promise.
